Reincarnation of the Fist King Chapter 147

Episode 147

King of Power, the world is small

Yishin explained the Samramansangchukgi technique in detail and repeatedly to his juniors. It was his wish to teach the Samramansangchukgi technique to at least one person in the martial arts world.

The doctor who taught also felt his heart pounding.

Because Danwoo Seong is still young.

Even without rushing, Danwoo Sung had more opportunities than others. It wasn't just his youth, but his strength, enough to rank him among the top ten martial arts masters.

Yishin thought that if Madou had chosen this young man as one of the ten best martial artists in the world, there must have been a reason.

He is not a man who has locked himself away in the mountains and learned martial arts alone.

The fact that the magical forces are on the list of people who must be killed means that Danwoo-seong has wiped out the magical forces without the medical doctor knowing.

That's why Yishin had high expectations for Danwoo Seong.

Moreover, he liked the fact that he was the son of the upper class. It was a slightly different atmosphere from the later incumbents of the sect. After completing his explanation, Yishin asked the thoughtful Danwoosung.

"I want to hear how much you understand. Feel free to talk."

Since it was different from the general method, I wanted to check how much he understood what I was saying.

Danwoo Seong, who had been lost in thought, responded calmly.

“So, the existing mind methods are like continuously repeating the action of scooping up water from a well with a gourd and pouring it into the dantian.”

“That’s the way it is.”

"However, this very act unconsciously limits the space of the dantian. It becomes a lake. However, the more advanced the spiritual method or divine skill, the larger the gourd, the clearer the water in the well, or the deeper the well. In any case, there's no difference in the repeated act of filling the lake with internal energy."

Yishin nodded.

“Also, that’s right.”

“On the other hand, the Samramansangchuk technique that my senior taught me······.”

When Danwoo-seong hesitated, Yisin spoke.

"Speak comfortably. It doesn't matter if you're wrong. The Great Way is inherently without gates. As long as we don't lose our desire to move in the right direction, we will eventually learn."

Danwoo Seong said.

“The method of creating all things, no, I am not a lake in the first place.”

Yishin stared at Danwoo Sung with his mouth tightly shut. From now on, he planned to listen to Danwoo Sung's words with the humble attitude of learning from his junior.

Danwoo Seong's voice flowed softly across the quiet Yangpyeong Lake.

"To become strong, you don't draw water from a well and pour it into a lake. Instead, you become the ocean itself, accepting the waters rushing in from all directions. This isn't about accumulating internal energy to become stronger, but rather accepting it to empower actions that don't disrupt the harmony of all things. It's a method of mind where the very order is reversed."

Yishin nodded, and Danwoosung continued speaking slowly.

"This is a method of succumbing that requires a right mind to begin with. It's not the method itself that's difficult; success or failure hinges on whether your mind can become a better person."

Yishin silently extended his hand and pointed at Danwoo-seong. He meant for him to continue speaking.

Danwoo Sung expressed his thoughts.

"What should I clear from my mind? This is similar to the emptiness (空) of Buddhism. It's full of things to be cleared away. However, the act of emptying is merely a follow-up to ridding the mind of what's overflowing. There are times when a lifetime of effort cannot empty it, and times when everything can be emptied in an instant. This is because the mind, in the first place, is driven by ceaseless thoughts. The reason we become consumed by murder and tremble with anger is in the same vein."

Yishin nodded.

"be right."

Danwoo Seong answered.

"Not straying from proper principles. The likelihood that my incompetent junior will be able to immediately unleash the Samramansangchukgi is slim. I'm a man consumed by anger, consumed by murder. There's still a lot of this in my heart."

As he was organizing his thoughts and speaking, Danwoo-seong's eyes widened. With the doctor before him, a realization struck.

"ah······."

The doctor waited with a smile on his face, as if telling him to think deeply.

Danwoo Seong said.

“It is not about learning the Samraman Sangchuk technique and advancing to the great way······.”

Yishin looked at Danwooseong with his eyes wide open.

Danwoo Seong continued speaking.

“Everything you do after realizing the Great Way is the method of all things.”

Yishin asked cautiously.

“Is that really so?”

"Yes. I, myself, am a man of less enlightenment and less magnanimity than you, my senior. Therefore, I pledge to approach the Great Way through the conduct of a chivalrous man. This is the path chosen by a man lacking enlightenment. This too is because the Great Way is a formless path."

“It’s admirable that a young junior realized that the Great Way is a martial art.”

Yishin took a deep breath and then exhaled.

I felt relieved.

He was an honest junior.

I especially liked the fact that it was said without lies.

Yishin warmly encouraged his junior's determination and realization.

"Your words make me feel less lonely. Thank you for understanding my intentions. Please wake me up."

When Yisin reached out both hands, Danwoosung, who had gotten up first, grabbed Yisin's arms to support him.

Four hands interlocked warmly, like crossing hands.

Yisin and Danwooseong, who were standing facing each other, were instantly enveloped in a pillar of pure white light.

Shoooo …

As the wave of energy burst forth, a pure white pillar of light extended from the two men's bodies and shot into the night sky. In its wake, the dark waves of Yangpyeong Lake were bathed in the light, gradually brightening the surroundings.

How could Danwoo not be surprised?

I looked at the doctor with my eyes wide open.

Yishin continued speaking with a burst of laughter.

"A young junior from the martial arts world wants to walk the arduous path of a swordsman. How can I just stand by and watch? My inner strength will recover quickly. I will share it with you without overdoing it, so relax. I am the one who has truly realized the Great Way of all things. I will accept you as my successor. You are worthy, and I have the skills to share it with you. Accept it willingly. I will guide you."

Danwoo Seong was also able to open his mouth.

“Senior······.”

But there was no need for long words, because the doctor's expression was so joyful.

The doctor said.

"Look. This is the truth of all things. The old entrust the world to the young, the good cheer the brave, those with an abundance share it with the world. It's because we live together with all things. Since you opened your heart, my inner energy also flows in without obstruction. Your being prepared for this is also the arrangement of all things."

Even as Yisin spoke, pure internal energy flowed into Danwooseong's dantian. Yisin expressed his request to receive more internal energy in this way:

“Open your heart.”

"yes."

The two people looked at each other's expressions and eyes and nodded several times.

This is what is meant when people say that Baekdo is stubborn and crazy.

Danwoo Seong accepted the vast amount of internal energy that Yishin had passed on to him.

At this point, it was impossible to even determine whether the Samramansangchukgi method really existed or not. That no longer mattered.

This is because Danwoo Seong had the will to walk the path of a knight.

Those words could not dare to deceive the eyes of the god.

That was Danwoo Seong's heart.

Because of this, God, who wanted to save people, was making Danwoo-seong a stronger man than before.

As if a swordsman of this era had to become stronger than he is now.

To Yishin, even this action was a technique of the Three Kingdoms. Even after sharing his inner strength with Danwoosung, the waves of the great ocean remained unaffected.

After Yisin's choice was made, Danwoo-seong supported Yisin.

“Senior······.”

Yishin spoke while holding Danwooseong's hand.

“It’s okay.”

“Please come up. I’ll take you home first.”

Yishin blinked and then answered.

"let's go."

Danwoo Sung carried the spirit and ran to the top of the galaxy. "Fine" meant he would recover soon, but it didn't mean he was in top condition right away. Asking Baekyak for escort was a better option than having a lucky breakfast at Yangpyeong Lake.

.

.

.

Yisin, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed for about an hour, asked Danwoo Seong, who was waiting outside the door.

“Haven’t you left yet?”

"yes."

"Have a nice day. The young lady next to you is quite the expert. If you stay with me, even if the ambassador comes, there won't be any problems."

"hmm."

“Have a nice trip.”

"All right."

Danwoo Sung met Baekyak's eyes as if asking for Senior Yishin's help, and then quietly left the Galaxy Tower.

Baekyak was alone, and Yisin opened the door and walked out as if nothing had happened.

Baekyak asked.

“Are you okay?”

Yishin nodded, carrying his backpack on his back.

“It’s okay.”

Yisin sat on the veranda overlooking the night sky and took a deep breath. As Baekyak paced about, Yisin spoke.

“Come and sit down.”

As Baekyak sat down next to him, Yishin looked up at the night sky and asked.

“Have you mastered ice skating?”

"yes."

"I don't think there's a continuous ice bridge on Baekdo Island. It was severed a long time ago. Could it be a descendant of Baek Mu-jin?"

“Yes.”

“That’s amazing.”

Yishin stared intently at Baekyak's face.

“There must be something about your face that resembles Mujin Gong somewhere.”

“I guess so?”

Yishin chuckled.

"I'm talking about the man you want to see. Until your husband returns, tell me stories about Mujin. As a descendant, I think you know more than others."

Only then did Baekyak speak in a relaxed tone.

“Then, to the best of my knowledge.”

Yishin raised his hand and gave a warning.

“Sounds interesting.”

"All right."

While listening to Baekyak's story, Yishin began to control his breathing using the Samramansangchukgi technique.

.

.

.

The god of medicine and the white medicine stay together at the top of the galaxy.

'All actions of one who has realized the Great Way are the techniques of bringing about the harmonious development of all things.'

Danwoo Seong, who had that meaning in his heart, ran fiercely towards Guhwasan Mountain.

Save your younger sibling, save your friend.

I ran like crazy for something so simple and obvious.

How should I describe the feeling I had while running? I felt like I had to relearn how to run. The distance and height I could reach with each leap had changed. I needed to adjust my balance to match my increased internal energy. Consequently, the more I ran, the faster my speed became. Running forced me to reinterpret the very lightness I'd learned.

Now, we have reached a point where means of transportation like the Chollima horse are no longer necessary.

Danwoo Seong felt as if the world had become narrower, and he was engulfed in a white current of air like a thunderbolt as he stretched out into the darkness.

If you ask if there is anyone who became stronger while running among the powerful men of the time.

This is the moment of Danwoo Sung.

Every time thunder flashed under the dark night sky, the distance between Danwoo and Guhwasan seemed to shrink as if he was using the method of shrinking the earth.

Meanwhile, Danwoo Seong also tried the Samramansangchuk technique that he learned from Yisin.

There's no reason not to try.

Rather than attempting this with an anxious mind, I opened my dantian with a light heart, just as the doctor had instructed from the beginning. I practiced the chūki technique as if I was breathing with all things.

The most striking characteristic of the Samramansangchukgi technique, as described by Yishin, was the sensation of a wave surging, and the immediate recovery of internal energy. This was not an easy feat, but the path of a sage, not an uneducated one.

While running, Dan Woo-seong thought of Lee Ja-eon, Sima Ji, and Ju Ja-ryang without realizing the method of slaughter.

The ugly younger brother, Kang Ho-chung, Sima Geuk whose family was unlucky, the failed scholar, the jokes they shared together, memories of hitting and being hit by Li Zi-eon, Sima Geuk getting angry, the expression on Zhu Zi-liang's face when he asked to buy him a drink after failing the exam, good and bad memories came flooding back.

No matter what happened in the past, they are still my siblings and friends.

A smile spread across Danwoo Seong's face as he ran, soaked in memories.

I was running a long way, but I wasn't lonely.

There are my younger brother and his friends at Guhwasan Mountain.

At the top of the galaxy are family members, Baekyak, and Yishin.

People living together here and there in Gangho would often think of Danwooseong.

Now, Danwoo Sung also planned to live with them.

Suddenly, Dan Woo-seong's face, which had been running for a while, changed into a startled expression as if he had been splashed with cold water.

Something was rippling in my dantian. I couldn't immediately identify its name, but it was definitely a rippling, like a wave.
