Episode 441
The future on the sword (3)
Hook!
The air was compressed for a moment due to the pressure emitted by the fist, and then burst out.
Buseon’s eyes deepened.
‘It doesn’t work after all.’
Her body was drenched in sweat.
I don’t know how long I’ve been punching. It was also not a martial law based on blood and lion, but only repeated enforcement of power.
It would have been difficult for a body as disciplined as hers to become so covered in sweat after being in power for several hours.
In other words, it meant that a lot of mental energy was consumed.
‘I can’t even imitate the single hand that Master showed me back then.’
Enlightenment can be obtained anywhere. Enlightenment is something that can be achieved even while sleeping, eating, dazing, or even doing business.
In other words, there is nothing that can be asserted as a sure way to achieve enlightenment. It’s just that consistent effort and pursuit become the nourishment that can one day bring about enlightenment.
But this time was different.
At that time, I gained confidence that I could become even stronger from what Master had revealed to me.
It wasn’t a move that could be imitated, but if you constantly pursue that fist, you will definitely gain something. Buseon was so sure.
The problem is that you never know when that realization will come.
“You have a lot of distracting thoughts.”
Buseon was startled by the voice coming from next to him and turned his head.
There was a teacher there. The smiling face that looked at him with his back turned was filled with a kindness that I had not seen before.
“Master.”
Buseon knelt down on the spot.
“It looked ugly.”
“It’s definitely an ugly look. When training, concentration and immersion are essential, not optional. “You have too many distracting thoughts right now.”
“I apologize.”
Yang Chen shook his head.
“But I don’t know why you’re so worried. “It’s probably because of that fist from back then.”
No matter how hard you struggle, you cannot avoid your teacher’s eyes.
Yang Chen smiled.
“If constantly showing you the fists of that time and the martial principles of that time could hasten your growth, I would have shown you countless times. However, it could easily end up fitting my group into your own martial arts. That’s why I didn’t show it until now.”
“….”
“There is nothing else to say. All I can say is to keep trying and thinking hard. But don’t be too attached to that fist. Sometimes you try out the Lion God Fist, and sometimes you try to practice your weapon skills. “If your mind is following the fist of the moment, you may get clues from unexpected places.”
Yang Cheon recognized Buseon’s talent. And her effort was recognized more than her talent.
Disciples will become great. Even with lesser talent, he had already reached a level comparable to or even higher than that of the first and third. For that alone, Buseon deserved recognition.
That is why Yangcheon did not inform Buseon in detail.
Sometimes careful teaching could ruin a student. If he had thought that his teachings would not cause any problems in his students’ martial arts training, he would have already taught them.
“I think I can at least help you erase the frustration hanging over your heart.”
“…yes?”
“Who are you? “The person who caused you so much distress.”
“…!!”
“Who are you? “The person who made you so nervous.”
“….”
“Is this Yeonhojeong?”
Buseon couldn’t say anything.
Yes. She was nervous. Unlike his past self, who was able to turn his nervousness into a driving force for martial arts growth, he was now so caught up in his nervousness that he could not even train properly.
And Yang Cheon clearly saw the reason.
Yeonhojeong.
Bu-seon could not forget Yeon-ho-jeong, who had fought a terrible fight with his teacher in the past.
‘It was amazing. Truly, such a master….’
It was my first time.
Older? He seemed younger than me, but that had nothing to do with it. Whether he was younger or older than himself, it was more important to know whether he was worthy of meeting in the next generation of martial arts.
Looking at it that way, Bu-seon had no confidence to surpass Yeon-ho-jeong.
It was not simply because Yeonhojeong was strong. In addition to martial arts, Yeon Ho-jeong had a certain rank that he did not have and may never have.
Dignity as a person? no. Even at first glance, one could not sense any nobility in Yeon Ho-jeong. Rather, he was so rough that it was hard to believe that he was the grand duke of the prestigious Byeoksan Yeonga family.
Yeonhojeong’s status is that of a strong man.
A status that only those who have reached the level can have. It could be martial arts, writing, or music.
The same feeling was felt by a young man who was not yet thirty years old.
‘He is the one who has already opened the ultimate realm!’
Surprisingly, Bu-seon was not able to see Yeon Ho-jeong’s current state, but rather gave a faint glimpse of the extreme realm he had achieved in the past.
It was not because Buseon had any special talent.
Because I always looked up from the bottom.
There was a feeling that I could feel because I had analyzed and analyzed countless competitors and wasted my time trying to beat them.
That feeling was telling. It is impossible to overcome Yeonhojeong in one’s lifetime through normal means.
An ominous conviction that even if he becomes a Seongcheon-level powerhouse and becomes stronger than anyone else, Yeonhojeong will still be one step ahead of him.
That was the reason why Bu-seon was swayed by nervousness. A frustration that she had never felt before was eating away at her spirit.
“It must have been shocking.”
Yang Chen nodded.
“Your desire, which was unwavering even in the face of the terrifying talents of your first and third children, was broken in front of that guy. “Yes, I understand.”
“…I apologize.”
“This guy is different. It is the same when I see it with my own eyes. There are many geniuses in the world, but there is probably no one like Yeon Ho-jeong. Moreover, he has more brains and insight than martial arts skills. “Sometimes even I am left speechless, wondering how such a person could exist in the world.”
“….”
“Do you want to surpass that guy?”
Buseon raised his head.
Her eyes were very bloodshot as she looked at her teacher.
“I want to get over it.”
That short word contained more meaning than simply wanting to lead through martial arts.
Yang Chen smiled faintly.
“Follow me.”
There was only silence between the two people who left the practice room.
How long has it been like that?
“The reason I established the Mukryongbu here is not simply to live here for the rest of my life.”
“yes?”
“No matter how great and secret a space is, a tunnel is still a tunnel. The Mukryongbu is the Black Island Alliance. This organization may be the first of its kind in history. How long will such an organization have to stay in a tunnel like this?”
Yang Chen shook his head.
“At least as long as my life is on the line, I will not end up in a place like this. We will proudly build a castle on a sunny spot and make it the greatest power in the world. “That is one of my many goals.”
Buseon was deeply moved.
Given the teacher’s personality, he would not have said such words to his elder brother or his third child. Even if she had done it, she was greatly moved by the fact that her teacher had shown her the sincerity buried deep in her heart.
“But we can’t abandon this place. This place is deep, strong, and huge enough to not collapse under any explosives. Wouldn’t it be too wasteful to leave a secret place like this alone?”
“yes.”
“So we came up with a plan to turn this place into a prison and interrogation room. The construction currently underway is not intended to turn this place into a secret castle for the Ink Dragon. “Construction is still going on to turn it into a prison and interrogation room.”
“okay.”
“So there are many unique spaces that no one knows about.”
The place where Yangcheon stopped after passing through numerous Donghyeol was in front of a stone wall that was slightly redder than other places.
Yang Chen said, placing his hand on the stone wall.
“It looks like a stone wall, but this is an iron gate made of a material similar to stone. In addition, this iron is mixed with a precious object called Yusangguicheol. “It is a treasure of the world that increases or decreases depending on the level of internal energy injected.”
“yes?!”
“I haven’t known you in a while. “There are many truly mysterious objects in the world.”
Yangcheon increased his strength.
Wooooow. Coogung.
The red stone wall shrank slightly.
“Of course, because it is a rare item, the amount is extremely small. However, you can slightly adjust the size just by mixing it up a bit.”
Buseon gaped at the sight he had never seen before.
Iron whose size changes when internal force is applied? I really never imagined that such a precious thing existed.
Yang Chen tightened his hands.
Coogugung.
The shrunken stone wall was pushed back with force, making a heavy sound.
Even if you know the secret of this stone wall, you will need more strength than an expert to push such a thick and large iron gate. It was evident that it was made with a lot of care.
“Come in.”
“yes yes!”
Bu-seon, hiding his embarrassment, followed Yang-cheon inside.
It was darker inside than I thought. Like other places in Mukryongbu, this place also had night lights on the ceiling, but there were few of them and the brightness was below standard.
Buseon’s eyes widened.
“This is a surveillance room connected to the interrogation room.”
Yang Cheon pointed to one wall made of transparent glass.
Beyond the glass wall, two women were sitting and drinking tea.
“You can see the interrogation room from the surveillance room here. However, you cannot see this side in the interrogation room. “Of course I can’t hear anything.”
“Poetry is fascinating.”
“The world is wide. For those of us who live in martial arts, growing in martial arts is a task we must embrace for the rest of our lives, but if we turn our gaze just a little, things like treasures and legends that we cannot even imagine are rampant.”
Yang Chen smiled cheerfully.
After deciphering the yin huang kidney, he became so relaxed that people who saw him were surprised.
“One day, I plan to modify it so that only this side can hear the sound from the other side. Very clearly. Of course, I don’t know if it’s possible.”
“You are amazing.”
“Well, whatever that is.”
Yang Chen pointed to the young woman with his chin.
“How do you look?”
Buseon looked at the woman with sharp eyes.
I couldn’t even feel the other person’s voice or even their prayers. The only thing that could be confirmed was posture and eyes.
After a while.
“…It’s huge.”
Buseon’s face was once again colored with shock.
“That woman is incredibly strong. I don’t think his age is much different from mine….”
“I haven’t reached the stage of no play yet. However, if you are that age and have that level of martial arts skill, you will be able to reach heaven in ten years.”
“…!!”
“That guy is the guy who is evaluated as being closest to becoming the next Geomhu.”
Yang Chen’s eyes deepened.
The kind eyes had disappeared, and the glow of an ambitious person who wanted to conquer the world was burning like a flame.
“I will obtain the power of the sword after those. And that is not something that can be achieved simply by being strong in martial arts.”
“…?!”
Yang Cheon said while looking at the boat.
“Master Lee got to where he is today by eliminating and eliminating countless powerful people who he felt were unrivaled powers. Do you think you’ve never been frustrated in those decades?”
“…!!”
“The world is wide and there are many strong people. Like Yeon Ho-jeong or that guy. However, Moorim is not a world where the strong win. “It is a world where those who win are evaluated as strong.”
Bu-seon’s exhausted eyes gradually filled with vitality.
Yang Chen said in a stern voice.
“Don’t try to get over it. “The important thing is to win. If you are stronger than me, do whatever it takes to exploit your weaknesses.”
“….”
“If what you want is not a master, but a ruler.”
