Taejonbirok Volume 20, Episode 10
Chapter 109: The Lazy Man Takes on a Challenge (5)
The short time waiting for change felt incredibly long.
Everyone waited without taking their eyes off Dang Yun-geol.
A little more, a little more… … a little more… … .
“It doesn’t change?”
As Wi Yeon-ho spoke calmly, everyone's gaze turned to Dang Cheon-gun.
“Oh, no, why are you looking at me like that?”
Wei Yanho said in a dull voice.
“Isn’t the dilution wrong? There’s no change.”
“Are you doubting my skills?”
Tang Cheon-gun answered with a hint of anger, but his authority was no longer effective.
“That’s because nothing changes. Look, there’s no change at all.”
“Just wait a moment.”
“It seems like you’ve been waiting a long time.”
“Ugh.”
Dangcheon-gun's face distorted.
"Why isn't there any change? If Hakjeonghong had entered, it should have turned a deep red. Why is this…? Is it because my skin has turned dark that it's not noticeable?"
Dangcheon-gun quietly approached Dang Yun-geol and gently pressed his abdomen.
“No.”
I thought the redness might be hidden by the darkened skin, but that didn't seem to be the case. Then I should have felt at least some venom, but I didn't.
Dangcheon-gun began to agonize.
“This can’t be happening.”
“Oh, just a moment.”
Wi Yeon-ho raised his hand.
“Permission to speak.”
“You assumed that this person had no energy left in his body and injected him with poison.”
"yes."
“Then did you take into account the magic inside your body?”
"huh?"
Dangcheon-gun tilted his head.
“Magi? Should I consider something like that?”
“Of course. I heard that when you fought the Demonic Cult in the past, you had a hard time because their poison didn’t work well.”
“That’s right.”
“Then that means that Magi has some degree of resistance to poison.”
"hmm……."
Dangcheon-gun seemed to understand and picked up the poison bottle.
Then he took some more Hakjeonghong and made some poison and poured it into Dang Yun-geol's mouth.
“I think it will work now.”
“Are you sure?”
“I said it would work out.”
“Hey, you have to believe it.”
Dangcheon-gun raised his head and looked at the ceiling without saying anything.
'I must die.'
What kind of movie are you trying to enjoy by living this long and seeing this hardship?
I wanted to throw a tantrum, but since I'd just poured poison on Dang Yun-geol, any rash action could ruin things. All I could do was bite my lip and endure.
"for a moment!"
At that moment, the head of the pharmacy spoke urgently.
“There is a change.”
"hmm……."
Even Wei Yanhu couldn't say anything more.
"here!"
The abdomen of Dang Yun-geol, which the medicine master was pointing at, began to turn red.
“Hurry up!”
“Stop it!”
The pharmacist's hand moved like a ray of light. With a snapping sound, dozens of needles were instantly inserted, centered on Tang Yun-geol's abdomen. The poison that had been spreading in an instant dulled slightly.
“Damn it!”
The pharmacist's face became anxious.
The principle of this treatment is simple.
The problem with Tang Yun-geol's body, and indeed with all patients exhibiting unidentified symptoms, is simple: there is no energy left in the body.
To be precise, all energy had drained away, leaving only a small amount of magical energy. However, this magical energy did nothing to energize the body. In fact, it was blocking the inflow of new energy.
In order to recover, you need to somehow push yourself.
However, if you take a common elixir or force internal energy into the body, the damaged qi and blood will not be able to withstand it and will burst. Then, it will be truly irreversible.
That's why poison was used.
Poison contains the energy of elixirs, but it doesn't stimulate the qi and blood as strongly as elixirs. And regardless of whether the qi and blood are damaged or not, it has the property of spreading throughout the body.

By filling your entire body with energy through poison and removing only the toxins, you can expect the effect of infusing energy throughout your body. If your natural healing power is activated, damaged qi and blood will be restored.
So there is only one key point.
How can you remove the poison at the right moment and with the right precision?
It can't be too fast, and it can't be too slow. That's why so many people are gathered around Dang Yun-geol, unable to let their guard down.
“Isn’t this too fast?”
"are you okay."
When Tang Cheon-gun shouted urgently, Wi Yeon-ho answered without even turning his head.
“I’m still holding on.”
The red aura that had started in the abdomen was now dyeing the entire upper body.
"here!"
As Wei Yanho pointed to his neck, the herbalist quickly placed needles around his neck. As the silver needles were placed densely, the poison rising up his throat slowed.
“The head should come last.”
“I know!”
The pharmacist's voice is sharp.
He knew it too. Missing even a single moment, even a single moment, would kill a person. In an instant, they would become addicted and suffocate. They had to slow down the addiction until their body could endure it.
If it spreads too quickly, the poison will spread to the bone marrow in an instant, leading to death. If it spreads too slowly, the body will be unable to bear the burden. Aren't you a sick person with infinitely low stamina? Unable to withstand the shock of the poison spreading through your body, you will suffocate.
You have to walk a tightrope, keeping your physical strength within your limits.
'Fuck.'
Cold sweat ran down the pharmacist's forehead.
He's been practicing medicine for half a century now. Over that time, he's treated countless patients. Many were in critical condition, while others ultimately couldn't be saved.
But I swear, this is the first time in my life that I've felt such a burden as I do now.
It's precarious.
The burden of knowing that someone could die in an instant if you distract them for even a moment was incredibly debilitating.
"no way!"
Wei Yanhu, with a vengeful voice, grabbed Tang Yunjie by the neck. Acupuncture alone was not enough to completely block the poison's penetration.
“They say that if you breathe in energy, all the meridians in your neck will burst!”
"i know!"
Their voices were getting louder.
“You just have to not blow it!”
Wei Yanho's hands radiated a dazzling light. He didn't force the energy into his throat. However, simply gathering the energy at his fingertips was enough to quell the poison.
“Damn it, it’s so bright I can’t see! Turn down the light!”
“No, can you do that as you please?”
“Someone go over there!”
Jang Il suddenly ran over, took off his shirt, and blocked Wei Yanho's hands.
“Oh, you’re emitting light for no reason!”
“…….”
This is the result of learning as I was taught, so what can I do?
Wi Yeon-ho felt wronged and sad, but he couldn't complain now.
“I’ve come to the tip of my toes!”
It's red.
The whole body turned red.
Tang Yun-geol's entire body, except for his neck, was dyed red. Even as he spoke, his skin grew redder and redder, until his entire body was covered in blood.
“Whew, Whew!”
The pharmacist let out a ragged breath and nodded.
“Let’s open it.”
"yes."
Even Wei Yanhu couldn't hide his nervousness. If he were to withdraw his energy now, the poison would surge up to his head. If he couldn't seize that moment and neutralize the poison, Tang Yunjie would die.
'It was hard up until here.'
From now on, it's real.
Wi Yeon-ho took a deep breath.
“I’m leaving!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yanhu's hand fell from Dang Yunjie's neck. Then, a red aura rushed up his neck and towards his head.
'Just a little more.'
Everyone looked at Tang Yun-geol with anxious faces.
This wasn't just about Dang Yun-geol's life. Everyone knew it. The outcome of this treatment would determine whether the rest of us would survive or die.
And perhaps the fate of the entire world of martial arts was at stake.
“My lord!”
“I know!”
As Hakjeonghong's energy surged to the tips of his hair, the head of the medical school urgently called out to Dangcheon-gun. Dangcheon-gun then stepped closer to Dang Yun-geol.
'Damn it, my heart is pounding… … .'
Dangcheon-gun clenched and unclenched his fist.
His job was to recover the spread of the poison. The moment his entire body was completely reddened, he had to filter and recover only the poison as quickly as possible.
A red aura engulfed Tang Yun-geol's entire head.
'A little more, a little more… … .'
As Dang Yun-geol's head turned a blood red like his body, the head of the medical school shouted.
“Now is the time!”
Dangcheon-gun extended his hand without answering.
“Huh!”
My fingertips are tingling.
Even though it was diluted, Hakjeonghong's venom was so vicious that even the Poison King felt a burden. Even if Tang Yunjie had remained in good health, he would not have escaped death without the Poison King's help.
That much poison has spread through the patient's body.
If you delay a little longer, you'll die. And not just die, you'll melt into a handful of blood.
Tang Cheon-gun exerted his suction power, sucking up the poison from his entire body. He could feel the tingling, stinging poison being sucked through his fingertips.
'it's okay!'
Fortunately, there was no resistance. Barring any special problems, the poison can be recovered without difficulty.
'Maybe this could be used as a new way of exercising?'
Since this is a novel concept, I believe its potential uses could be limitless if only it could be mastered. If we could create a new internal energy technique utilizing poison, Tang family martial arts would advance to the next level.
It wasn't a bad idea.
But now was not the time to think about such things. The price for diverting even a little attention was immediately returned.
Boom!
Tang Yun-geol's body, which had been lying like a corpse until now, jumped up as if struck by lightning.
“What, what is it!”
At that moment, Tang Cheon-gun's eyes widened as if they were going to tear apart.
A dark, wispy aura emanated from Tang Yunjie's body. It wasn't just black. While the previous aura felt as if it were being sucked away, the aura now emanating from Tang Yunjie's body was slightly reddish.
That means.
“Oh, it’s poisonous!”
“Get back! Don’t breathe! It’s addictive!”
Perhaps sensing something within them, the demons began to rage. They grabbed the escaping poison and thrust their heads into Tang Cheon-gun's body.
Some of the magic energy, as if finally liberated, poured out of Tang Yun-geol's body with incredible force.
Buzz! Buzz!
In reaction, Dang Yun-geol's body was shaking like a carp.
'Oh, no.'
Magic and poison mixed together and began to run wild. If this continued, there was no way Tang Yun-geol's body could withstand it.
It swells up.
Unable to control his turbulent energy, Dang Yun-geol's body began to slowly swell. At first glance, it appeared to have swelled by more than half its original size.
“Damn it!”
The pharmacist quickly inserted needles into Dang Yun-geol's Baekpal acupoints, but there was no sign of relief. If this continued, his body would explode.
'Oh, no.'
If his body exploded, Dang Yun-geol would die. The problem was that this was a medical center, and there were countless patients nearby. If his body exploded, the pieces containing Hak Jeong-hong would scatter in all directions, and that would be the end of everything.
“Somehow……!”
“Hey, really!”
At that moment, Wei Yanhu climbed on top of Tang Yunjie and placed his hand on his abdomen.
Soon, a dazzling light emanated from Wei Yanhu's body.
