Episode 172
A matter to be left to the gods and the king of power
Suddenly, there was a doctor in this place.
Yisin, too, was displeased with the prospect of a wheeled battle or an all-out war. While he himself might survive, many others would die in the process. Above all, Yu Jeong-hong, with his internal injuries, would be the first to die. The same would apply to Gwangsin and Kwon Wang. Even if he won that way, what would be left?
It wasn't the ending that Yishin had hoped for.
Surprisingly, the King of Power was the first to offer his life, and Gwangsin entrusted his fate to the King of Power.
It was a situation that even the doctor could not have predicted.
Yisin spoke to Gwangsin and Danwooseong, who had their eyes closed.
“You two, leave the beginning and end of this matter to me.”
As Gwangsin and Danwoo nodded, Yisin spoke.
"Let's begin. Open your dantian and calm your mind. Time is of no importance.
"As slowly as possible… Gwangsin, the same goes for you. You don't need to rush either. The internal energy of the junior of the Fist King has already reached the limits of his body. Raising his level can't stop at simply transferring his internal energy. If you force yourself to inject him with internal energy in a short period of time, his body won't be able to withstand it, so it's important that the three of us not force ourselves. Our path should be different from that of those who force themselves to become strong. Gwangsin, for the sake of your junior's life, slowly and persistently transfer his internal energy, step by step. I will look after you both."
The fanatic nodded.
'I guess so.'
It was advice from a man I had trusted my whole life, so I couldn't help but accept it.
Yishin suddenly looked at Yoo Jeong-hong, then opened his eyes blankly and chuckled to himself.
The atmosphere was not serious at all.
There are things about the world that can be told, and things that cannot. Many things happened on Mount Guhwa, but there was one crucial fact that no one seemed to recognize.
The favor of a fanatic and a gentleman master.
A showdown between the king of power and his gentleman master.
This is also important, of course.
However, what happened at Guhwasan was also a confrontation between the gentleman's master and the god of medicine, one of the three gods.
The confrontation between the two was conducted in such a secretive manner that it seemed as if they were thoroughly vying for the inner path. Even their opponent, the Demonic Gentleman, was oblivious to the situation.
Yishin had expected from the beginning that there would be people in the world with opposite tendencies to his own.
It was a situation that I realized clearly after coming here that it was a magician.
Although he did not appear in the military, the shaman observed the gentleman closely and comprehensively, observing his expression, words, movements, breathing, emotional changes, eyes, and thoughts.
The conclusion from that examination was this.
The magician is not a god, but a human.
He was a man with feelings.
If it weren't for that, he would have been a man of such high status that he could have been called a demon god or a god of chaos.
It was only for a moment that I caught a glimpse of the gentleman's emotional turmoil.
When the fanatic said he would pass on his inner strength, the expression and sigh of the magician were visible to the doctor's eyes.
Because of this, Yishin considered even his gentlemanly master as merely another human being. Conversely, his gentlemanly master likely couldn't understand Yishin's expansive world.
So, who won in the battle of the Way, which unfolded in a completely different way from the martial arts of striking and receiving?
The gods won.
Of course, it wasn't a story worth bragging about to anyone.
Because there was no way to explain it.
Because of this, there were many things that Yishin could not say to Danwoo Sung.
For example, something like this:
'You are likely to lose.'
But I thought that wasn't the end.
Gwangsin, Cheolmyeongho, and Gocheonhwi would have lost their lives at the moment of defeat.
Oddly enough, the King of Power was less likely to do so.
Because the King of Power is the last.
'The gentleman's last chance to die.'
Yishin interpreted the unfolding situation as follows.
That's why the words that Yishin rarely told Danwoo-seong with a hardened expression were to be polite.
There, the doctor thought, was a way out.
At least the magician was a man who was honest with what he said.
'Death is the most serious problem I cannot solve.'
Others might have simply passed it by, but Yishin didn't. Even if the King of Fist were defeated, he would ultimately solve this difficult problem.
Yishin was the only man who could understand the world to this extent.
If the Demon Lord was born as a human and reached the realm of a god of chaos, then it would be no exaggeration to say that the Eui-shin was born as a human and reached the realm of a god of immortality, as he possessed insight.

Suddenly, a drop of sweat ran down the forehead of the fanatic who was pouring his inner energy into him, and the doctor spoke in a calm tone.
"Don't panic. Just a moment ago, the King's body was probably startled, instinctively trying to survive. In that case, you should help me cleanse his body again. If you do it, it'll be a cleanse on a whole other level."
Only then did Gwangshin's expression calm down.
'I see.'
While the fanatic's mind was wavering for a moment, Yishin injected a ray of internal energy into the fanatic, helping him to achieve mental and physical stability.
Even the king was greatly surprised.
Because at some point, my body reacted as if it was having a convulsion.
The sea and the ocean met, creating high waves that spread throughout the body.
Fortunately, Danwoo Seong also calmed down after listening to Yisin's words. Still, he couldn't help but feel strange.
It's been quite some time since the three of them had breakfast together in a triangular configuration.

However, the fanatic's internal energy was still so powerful that it overflowed. It was so vast that it seemed impossible to absorb it all in one night.
Since Yishin possessed the greatest internal energy in the world, it was inevitable that Yishin would be the one controlling it.
At that moment, the fanatic directly began to perform the process of washing Danwoo's body.
It feels like the blood vessels in my entire body are being purified.
The turbid energy flowed out through all the holes, and a pleasant feeling, as if I had gained a new body, enveloped my entire body.
I already had a young body, but I felt like I was getting younger.
The doctor said.
“I guess we should take a break now. Let’s each continue breathing in our own way.”
Yoo Jeong-hong, who was standing guard, looked back at Yi-shin with a surprised expression.
Yishin met Yoo Jeonghong and spoke with his lips.
'fizzle.'
The reason Yoo Jeong-hong was surprised was because dawn had already broken. The entire process of washing the bees had already taken quite some time. Therefore, it made no sense to pause and then resume.
The King and the Gwangsin were so focused that they must have lost track of time. However, the Eui-shin looked at Yoo Jeong-hong with a look that told him not to worry.
Yishin smiled, holding the hands of the King and the Gwangsin tightly in both hands.
After a while, when the King and the Gwangsin opened their eyes, the Yisin quickly controlled his expression.
Yoo Jeong-hong was staring blankly at this sight.
Before he knew it, Yisin was comforting Gwangsin with a serious expression and moist eyes. He patted Gwangsin on the back of his hand and spoke.
“Don’t say anything for a moment.”
The fanatic replied in a bewildered tone.
“No, that’s not it. It was too lacking.”
“What?”
“It’s about transmitting internal energy.”
“No way.”
Yishin stared intently into Danwoo's eyes.
“Was it not enough?”
Danwoo-seong observed Yishin's expression and gaze, then tilted his head and replied.
"That's impossible. My internal energy, the expansion of my danjeon, and the intensity of my body, which is difficult to describe, have reached their limits."
When Gwangsin looked at Danwooseong, Yisin said.
“Is that so?”
Suddenly, he looked outside, where the light was brightening, and said:
“By the way, why is it morning already?”
In an instant, the sea was brightening. After staring outside for a while, Gwangsin asked Yisin.
"Is this okay? Or did you have other ideas? I think you were being too relaxed in your directing."
The doctor said.
"You told me to leave it to you from beginning to end. Don't you trust me? You spent the entire night instilling your inner strength in your junior, the Kwon Wang, and giving him a face wash again, all while the three of us worked together. Since the deadline promised by the gentleman master was this morning, you completed your task without a moment's rest. While imparting inner strength is important, we must also consider that the gentleman master gave us ample time. So, keeping our promise of time is equally important."
The fanatic shut his mouth with a dumbfounded expression.
"hmm."
It was because I was worried about the king.
The doctor, who knew the inside of the fanatic's mind, spoke to the fanatic and Yoo Jeong-hong.
"You two, come to my side now. There's still some finishing touches left."
As Yisin tapped the floor with his hand, Yoo Jeonghong and Gwangshin came and sat down without saying a word.
So Yoo Jeong-hong, Ui-sin, and Gwang-sin sat side by side and looked at Dan Woo-seong.
The doctor said.
“The disciple······.”
Danwoo Seong replied.
"yes."
“Before we leave, let us say goodbye to our masters.”
Danwoo Seong stood up and looked at Yoo Jeonghong, Uisin, and Gwangsin in turn. Gwangshin's expression remained gloomy, Uisin's expression was indifferent, and Yoo Jeonghong's face was also filled with pensiveness.
Danwoo-seong said while bowing to the three people.
“Thank you, Masters.”
What more needs to be said?
While Danwoo-seong was resting his forehead on the floor, Yishin spoke.
"I entrust the world to you. You don't have to worry about us. I'm here for you. We'll help each other as we always have, so there won't be any major problems."
Danwoo-seong raised his head and nodded toward Yisin.
'I don't quite understand what you're saying, but I understand.'
When Yisin tapped the fanatic next to him, the fanatic barely opened his mouth.
“Let’s see if our great disciple survives.”
“I will do that.”
It was Yoo Jeong-hong's turn. Compared to Yi-shin or Gwang-shin, he was a man of volatile emotions, so he couldn't utter a long speech.
“I’m sorry.”
Danwoo Seong replied.
"no."
The doctor said, pointing outside.
"Go. Bimu won't be watching. This can't end with a quick fight. The three of us will thank the monk Kyo-gak and then go down to the foot of Guhwasan Mountain first."
“Well then, disciple… I’ll be back.”
Danwoo-seong turned around after bowing.
As Danwoo Seong walked towards the empty lot, looking at the morning sun with quiet steps······.
The fanatic, who had been suppressing his anger and curiosity until now, finally opened his mouth.
"What on earth will happen now, Doctor? Is it enough?"
When Gwangsin asked a question with an excited expression, Yisin looked into Gwangsin's eyes and asked.
“Have you lived diligently until now?”
"You call that a question? Of course it was."
Yishin looked at Yoo Jeonghong.
"you?"
Yoo Jeong-hong nodded.
“Me too.”
The doctor said.
"Then it's done. We'll leave the rest to Heaven and the King. We'll go to Monk Kyo-gak. I'll explain the situation as we go down. I'm not sure if it'll be enough, but you two deserve to hear it."
The spirit suddenly stood up as if trying to disappear from the volcano.
.
.
.
Suddenly, the gentleman opened his eyes to the morning sun.
The King of Power stood alone in front of the Great Master, looking down at himself in the open space.
The gentleman frowned.
Because Yisin, Gwangsin, and Yoo Jeonghong were not visible.
'hmm······.'
I felt a bit strange. I thought maybe the fanatics or the cult had noticed that I didn't want anyone to see me fighting.
The gentleman spoke to Master Jianzi, who was still waiting while sitting cross-legged.
“Look here, please.”
When Master Jianzi opened his eyes, the gentleman said:
“You’ve had a hard time. You should go down Mount Guhwa.”
Suddenly, Jianzi turned his head and saw the King of Fist descending the stone steps alone. The other Baekdo masters were nowhere to be seen.
The gentleman looked at the gentleman as if he was at a loss for what to do for a moment.
The gentleman said:
"Do you want to interfere with this match? I doubt you will."
“That’s not it.”
"So, are you planning an ambush on me? I'll tell you in advance that it won't work. I have no intention of killing you, so leave Mount Guhwa. Go find Yisin, or find Master Dongja, who may be somewhere… Do whatever you want. Master Jianzi, we are parting ways."
After the sage got up from his seat, he asked the king who was walking towards the open space.
“King of Fist, why are you coming alone? Where is the doctor?”
Danwoo Seong replied.
“He must have gone down. Master Jianzi, please don’t disturb him.”
"disturbance?"
Danwoo Seong said this while taking in the wide open space and Guhwasan Mountain.
“It’ll be hard to watch anyway.”
When the military leader tried to drive out even the king of the realm, Jianzi had no choice.
The man suddenly asked the two people while carrying his backpack on his back.
"If that's what you both think, then I guess I'll have to accept it. I'll just ask one question. Of course, the winner here will be the best in the world, right?"
The gentleman reached out his hand to his master. The gentleman nodded.
“Of course.”
Jian Zi looked at the King of Kwon as if expecting an answer, but Dan Woo Seong did not open his mouth for a moment.
I just wanted to do my best.
So what if it's the best in the world, and the best in all of history?
My head was filled with thoughts only about martial arts.
Suddenly, Jianzi waited for the King of Fist's answer and then went down Mount Guhwa.
The King of Power was already completely unable to hear Jianzi's words.
