Chapter 32 – Chapter 01: Elf Heavenly Horse
Therefore, Yeonhwa thought that there was no need for her to teach him and was excited to see what Yujin would show from now on.
No matter how many martial arts she had as a Heavenly Demon in her head and even though she had mastered martial arts that could be called new, it was always fun to learn about unknown things.
“Then do you plan to start training your special ability right away?”
“Yes. “For the sake of physical recovery, I need to quickly regain my original ability, saladic, even at a basic level.”
In response to Yeonhwa’s question filled with anticipation, Yujin sat down on her floor and immediately closed her eyes, trying to concentrate when Yeonhwa asked.
“It looks like this ability’s name is Salatic. “Is it an ability specialized for recovery that needs to be recovered for physical recovery?”
“It’s not like that… , Unirut rather than nature keeper… “So, it’s because my supernatural energy is easier to handle.”
Yeonhwa quickly understands when Yujin gives an example of whether the Heavenly Demon recovers faster by treating internal energy and healing energy than recovering the body by dealing with the natural energy itself.
“Then I have to concentrate from now on…”
“Hmm, I understand. “Please refrain from asking questions.”
Even in martial arts, it was common sense not to touch someone when executing fortune telling through Naegongsimbeop and to use protection in some cases.
As the level increases, such cases are rare, but even at the level of a superhuman, if someone touches you by mistake during the fortune telling, you can fall into a state of essence overflow.
It was a natural consideration not to interfere with other abilities when they were dealing with their respective energy. Consideration that could even put your life at risk.
Therefore, when Eugene asks Yeonhwa for understanding to run Unirat Architects for Salatic’s practice from now on, Yeonhwa understands and agrees.
“Oh, now that I think about it…”
Therefore, if Eugene had concentrated and started learning Unirat to enter Salatic, Yeonhwa would have just kept her mouth shut and watched him do it.
However, as he closed his eyes to concentrate and focused on the essence sense and sixth sense that detects the essence in the air, he suddenly felt the energy in his pocket and was reminded of an item he had forgotten.
‘If I keep this on my body, it could interfere with my ability to create Unirut, so I should drop it.’
It was none other than the magic stone possessed by Enemy, the boss of the dungeon named as a part of the Demonic Cult.
The magic gem that could be acquired from Enemy was an item whose purity was very cloudy due to the game settings.
To be precise, there is no problem with the essence itself, but the problem is that it contains the murderous intent of the monster that has become Enemy along with the essence.
And when the magic stone is absorbed, this murderous intent is naturally absorbed along with the essence by the person who absorbs it, and the absorbed murderous intent contaminates the soul (image) of the person who absorbed the magic stone.
To put it simply, the magic gemstone is a lump of pure essence, and if you absorb it like an elixir, no matter how high the level is, your soul will be twisted and you will inevitably cause an essence overflow.
‘I didn’t think it was that dangerous based on the game settings alone…’
After actually acquiring it and confirming it through my sixth sense, which had reached the level of absolute power, I found out that it was a very dangerous item.
If you use it like a battery for a supernatural tool such as an artifact or imitation god, if you absorb it as is, even if Eugene has reached the level of an absolute being, his soul will begin to twist.
‘Of course, it is not impossible to suppress it depending on the state, but…’
In other words, by the standards of those who can suppress it through the realm, the amount of essence contained in the magic stone, which only has that much murderous intent, is just an amount that does not need to be absorbed.
On the contrary, even if they absorb it, the magic stone containing a significant level of essence would contain enough murderous intent to pollute even their souls.
So, according to the game settings, the Magic Stone can be absorbed like an elixir, but if you really absorb it like that, it is a good item to go straight to the goal.
If this existed on Earth, it would probably be treated the same way on Earth.
‘In other words, the safest use of magic stones is as a power source for various supernatural tools and as a battery to develop civilization.’
Of course, even though it was dangerous to directly absorb the magic stone like that, this was only when it was swallowed directly inside the body like an elixir.
It is not particularly dangerous just to have it on your body.
I don’t know if it was possible to absorb the energy inside the magic gem through some kind of supernatural ability, but it wouldn’t be much of a hindrance when drawing in the essence in the air to create Unirut.
No, even if it’s a hindrance, if you have Eugene’s level of control, you can probably filter it out and absorb it.
… However, Eugene did not want to create any variables as he was starting to build a foundation for the first time, as originally, all abilities must have a strong foundation.
Therefore, Eugene took out the gatekeeper’s magic stone from his pocket, placed it on the floor, and then concentrated again and tried to start practicing Unirut Architects.
“Hoo? Are you sure you want to absorb that magic stone yourself?”
However, Yeonhwa, who was watching Eugene practice, showed interest and asked if there was something misunderstanding about his behavior.
To that question, Eugene looked embarrassed and responded in a tone that suggested that could not be possible.
“And then the essence exploded… “So, I’m going to fall into a coin trap and you’re going to say I’m crazy?”
“Then why did you bring it up? Judging by its size and perceived energy, it is a magic stone that appears to be roughly C rank.”
Yeonhwa said that she was learning her special ability all over again, and that she thought she was trying to get help in practicing her special ability by absorbing it because there was a magic gemstone suitable for taking out the magical gemstone.
“I’m against it, I’m against it. I took it out because I felt that if I kept it on my body, it would actually interfere with my ability to practice. No, I don’t think you need to ask, but you can sense the thoughts of death contained in the magic stone, right?”
And if you can sense it, you will also know that absorbing it itself is an act of suicide unless the difference between the essence contained in the magic stone and the amount and level of killing intent is quite large.
No, there was no need for Yeonhwa to sense murderous intent through energy, and it was common sense that absorption of the magic stone even within the Orbital Continent was nothing more or less than an act of suicide.
He sighed inwardly and asked, “Why did he have to break his concentration to ask that?” Yeonhwa said with a meaningful smile.
“Hehe, it is said in the world that the act of absorbing magic stones like an elixir is the perfect act to fall into a magic spell. Well, in the case of the main seat, it was a different story, so I absorbed it quite usefully when I was lacking in strength.”
“… Yes? “Magic stone?”
Yu-jin looked in disbelief at Yeon-hwa’s completely unexpected remark, and when she looked at Yeon-hwa and the magic stone she had placed on the floor in turn, she gave an expression that Yeon-hwa expected that reaction.
“I don’t know if you know that you know about this place through the future. “This is about the Guyugumun that exists in the Guyumagong of this throne, especially the opening gate of Agwido.”
And as Yeonhwa’s story continued, Eugene recalled one of the formative qigongs exclusive to Guyumagong that he was able to learn after becoming Yeonhwa’s disciple, and opened his mouth.
“Clearly… “It was a type of absorption method that absorbed the energy of a dead person without any side effects, right?”
Instead, for safety reasons, it was a type of shaped pore that did not increase the maximum internal energy and only allowed recovery of internal energy.
And because of this Agwido, Yeonhwa and the protagonist who became her disciples were able to show off their uncanny fighting power, being able to fight a large army alone as a demon who never gets tired on the battlefield.
“After reincarnating in this world, I realized that the magic stone was something close to an elixir, and I went through many trials and errors to absorb it. “In terms of time, it looks like it was used for research on how to safely absorb magic stones for about 30 years.”
Thanks to this, the problem of insufficient internal energy was naturally resolved as a result of consistently practicing the mind technique for a long time, and the result was not utilized properly.
However, even so, it is clear that after nearly 30 years of research, Yeonhwa created a form of Qigong that can safely absorb the magic stone.
“This Qigong, created based on the teachings of Agwido, was named Majeongsungyeong. “It is a shape qigong that excludes only the fleshly thoughts contained in the magic stone and safely absorbs only the natural energy.”
And after absorbing the essence like this, Yeonhwa proudly says that if she replaces the absorbed essence with inner energy through the Naegongsim method, she can absorb the essence (natural guardian) contained in the magic stone like an elixir.
‘… ‘It’s not for nothing that I say that this elf Heavenly Demon is a genius and a great general.’
No matter how many decades it took, a truly new shape was created.
Eugene, who couldn’t even imagine the vast amount of martial arts knowledge and deep enlightenment required for this, could only admire it.
‘… No, but if there was such a shape qigong, why didn’t you tell the main character about it?’
Then, when Yujin looked puzzled at the question that arose while admiring it, Yeonhwa continued her explanation.
“Well, there were some minor side effects.”
“Are you talking about side effects?”
“That’s right, the Demon Jeongsungyeong itself is a martial art made to fit the body of the main character. “Men can’t learn.”
Even in this Orbital World, where although it can be learned accurately, the standard itself of positive energy for men and negative energy for women has not been reversed, Ma Jeong-gyeong was a shape qigong that intensively absorbed negative energy.
Therefore, when a man eats it, the energy inside the body is biased towards the genitals, so in serious cases…
“You become a eunuch.”
“Yes… ?”
“It means I’m suffering from erectile dysfunction. “If you absorb the energy of the magic stone through the magic spirit police.”
For women, having an overabundance of sexual energy can actually make you healthier, but for men, it is poisonous.
And with Yeonhwa’s explanation like that, Eugene was able to realize why Yeonhwa did not study this shape qigong even if the main character took the route of becoming a disciple of the Cheonma.
‘Once you learn it, you can absorb elixirs, that is, magic stones, as you want without needing to obtain elixirs, but if a man learns them, he becomes a eunuch…’
How terrifying and amazing is this martial arts?! If you give up your life as a man, it is a martial arts skill that can replace most of the hidden pieces that Eugene is trying to obtain!
… Of course, Eugene had no intention of learning it. No, I couldn’t even learn martial arts in the first place.
“After all, isn’t this something only the Heavenly Demon can do? “It means extracting and absorbing only the natural energy from the magic stone.”
In that case, Eugene would of course know that it is impossible for him, but despite this, Eugene resists the urge to grumble at Yeonhwa’s attitude of ‘I can?’
“Definitely so far. But don’t you know what your special ability is? So, are you planning to absorb the magic stone in a way that I don’t know about? “I just expressed a question.”
Of course, the possibility of that happening was very low. However, even though she knows that fact, only Yeonhwa knows whether her question was really filled with expectations or she just wanted to tease Eugene.
“… Ha, that’s it. “Then I’m going to really focus from now on, so please don’t disturb me.”
“Kkkk, try your best.”
When Yeonhwa giggles and answers Eugene’s words, Eugene believes it for now and closes his eyes again, even though it is a very trustworthy answer.
And soon, he finally began in earnest to practice the Essence Sphere (Lee Neung Hak), Salatic, which he had inherited from his mother on Earth.
‘Unilert Architects, a training method that exists in Salatic. Unlike magic, martial arts, and power, there is only one functional blueprint (architecture).’
Through this, Unirat, which is an essence processing form (talent energy) of Salatic, is trained, and through Unirat thus trained, one enters Salatic.
