Chapter 66 – Heavenly Demonic Church (6)
Bang-
Suddenly, one of the elders stomped his feet and jumped to his feet.
“Ugh! So Gyoju Cheon Ha-yeon is not yet ready to get married!”
“I don’t mean to do it right now.”
“No way! I can’t give Ha-yeon to a dog-bones bastard who doesn’t know where she came from!”
“It’s Hayeon. So Gyoju Cheon Ha-yeon is no longer a kid! Speak straight!”
“You all have the same thoughts, so what are you saying!”
“Kuhmm…!”
As the elders around me stood up one by one and said a word, it was becoming more and more a piece of shit.
“I tried not to say it because I thought about my Tae Sang-ho law, but even the headmaster would never allow such crazy words.”
“Come on, elders, calm down! Elder Noh Joo-kwang should also sit down.”
The wall of the North Palace even carried internal energy and shouted. Thanks to that, the noise subsided for a while.
Dan Chun-sang still smiled calmly. She then slowly opened her mouth.
“I understand the concerns of the elders. Marriage is justification.”
“It’s justification…?”
“It means that the Presbyterian House will take the lead in conducting a thorough verification using the presidency of the Great Master of Humanity. A disciple whose identity is unknown. If there is a corner, it will be revealed during the verification process.”
“Oh… That makes sense. Certainly, there is no better cause than that.”
“Yes. If there is a corner that is not trustworthy, it is enough to use that as an excuse to pretend that the marriage never happened.”
“As expected, Tae Sang-ho is great. How did you think of that?”
“Heh heh, that’s an overstatement.”
Everyone started nodding their heads in satisfaction.
The fact that Cheon Ha-yeon and Kim Moo-gong were too young to marry, and that they were just 20, had already disappeared from their minds.
Only Lee Hyeon, the sub-wonju, felt something strange in the way things were going, but the atmosphere inside had long since been engulfed in half-madness.
I don’t know why cold-hearted old people who usually take care of every single thing become childish children when only Cheon Ha-yeon is involved.
In the end, he had no choice but to sigh quietly and turn away from the elders, who had turned into a home for the elderly in his neighborhood.

With needles stuck all over his body, he constantly checked the time. There was no pain, but boredom pushed me to sleep.
6 hours.
Exactly 6 hours after the start, the saengsama’s saliva was collected. If Chun Soo-sin-ui boasted a strong body enough to be mistaken for a military man, the raw sama-ui was like a skinny old tree.
Even her impression was tainted with her snarky personality, so even without looking at her, I could guess why she got such a bloody nickname.
Saint Sima Yi frowned at her and continued to shuttle around her. In the end, I was the first to speak out.
“Is there a problem?”
Widely. Sheng Sima Yi, who ignored my question and kept walking around, stopped her steps and looked at me.
“At least one year. Five years at the longest.”
Words spat out loudly. However, since I heard something through Cheonsu Shinui, I immediately realized what he was talking about.
“Is that all there is to it?”
“That’s it.”
“…The Hwamajeong seems to be more dangerous than I thought.”
“It’s something that humans shouldn’t touch.”
“It is still quiet.”
There was still no response from the Hwamajeong, which loftily rotated around the heart.
“The Hwamajeong is an object created by demonic invasion of the pure Hwajeong. I didn’t expect to actually see what I’ve only heard of in legends. The reason for the silence is simple. It’s because Hwajeong didn’t become Hwamajeong perfectly. It’s weak, but the energy of pure fire is left inside. They are resisting.”
“Apart from that, it reacts quite fiercely to external energy.”
“The demons surround Hwajeong like a thick shell. Of course, it is bound to react violently to external energy. But there is something strange about it. I should have reacted the same way to Young master’ energy…”
In fact, if I touched it, it didn’t budge and stood firm, as if it were about to harden.
Even the demon didn’t seem to understand why such a difference occurred.
“What about 1 to 5 years?”
“Exactly. It was an approximate estimate of how long it would take for Magi to completely annihilate the remaining resistance. When that time comes, I will never be alone. It will definitely release a strong force.”
The place where Hwamajeong was located was Jungjungjeon.
And since the middle battle was around the heart, there was a high possibility that it would not be able to withstand if the energy as strong as the hwamajeong exploded at close range.
It will turn into a well-cooked heart, or if you’re not lucky, your whole body will explode.
“The solution is…”
“The risk is too great to force it. The best thing is to widen the bowl.”
“…Does it really have to go up to the level of Hwagyeong?”
“Maybe. What will happen when Hwamajeong starts its activity and fuses with Hadanjeon’s enormous Yang Qi is beyond my ability to predict. Same with the one at the top. I have no choice but to grow the bowl as much as possible before that.”
Seeing that both Cheonsu Shinui and Saengsama were talking about the same thing, it was said that there was no clear solution.
I felt a little stuffy.
1 year as short as possible.
To me, who had not yet crossed the wall of transcendence, the realm of Hwagyeong was too far away.
“What raises the level with an elixir?”
I asked with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw. Sheng Sima Yi carefully examined the questionnaire and shook her head.
“No. If it’s Mita Holy Water and Honwondan, it will be difficult to see a great effect even if you take other elixirs. I don’t know about Shaolin’s grandeur, but Shaolin has already gone extinct. The Great Hwandan does not exist in this world.”
The answer came as expected. I didn’t expect too much anyway.
“Thank you for today.”
Dressed and politely embraced.
“Tsk, I have nothing to thank for not being able to treat you properly. I wasn’t meant to laugh at God’s bastard.”
“No. Now I have a clear sense of it.”
“…I will support you. Come if you have any problem. At least I will try to report the symptoms and take action.”
“All right.”
After saying hello again, I left the Magic Hall.
After all, I only thought painfully that there was no such thing as a fluke.
***
Looking at the back of Kim Mu-gong as he left, the demon doctor sat down on the chair.
‘He’s helpless.’
If it was overdoing it, there was a way to melt it by forcibly running out of fire. But it was no different from gambling on chance. Since it was a means that could not guarantee his life, it was right to save it until the end.
Advancement in medicine is achieved through numerous trials and errors and statistical supplements, but since there are no examples of such ‘legends’, it was a very difficult problem no matter how good the magician was.
Still, I couldn’t let go of my hands, so I brought a bunch of old books from the Magic Pavilion and put them down on the desk.
That buck
Someone approached the magician who had been looking at a book for a while.
Beautiful blonde hair with clear green eyes.
It was Cheon Ha-yeon, the head of the small school.
“What are you doing here, Little Teacher?”
Without taking his eyes off the book, the witch turned over the pages and asked.
“Why did Priest Kim Mu-gong… Go to the Magic Pavilion?”
To Cheon Ha-yeon, who had been the only disciple so far, the word priest was too awkward.
Feeling embarrassed and avoiding it, I happened to see Mu-gong Kim enter and exit the Magic Pavilion from afar.
Like the fact that he had previously asked his father to examine him, he had a hunch that something must be going on.
“Hmm… Even a young schoolmaster can’t tell you that.”
The magician avoids talking. This made it more certain.
There is something hidden.
“It will not harm Priest Kim Mu-gong. Please.”
Cheon Ha-yeon bowed her head politely and said. The magician stood up from his seat in astonishment.
“Huh…! The young schoolmaster can’t do this.”
“I will keep it a secret to myself.”
Looking at Cheon Ha-yeon, who still had a hard expression on her face, the demon finally let out a deep sigh.
“All right. I’m going to talk to you, so please sit here.”
Cheon Ha-yeon sat in front of the horse as she said.
“I was aware of my little schoolmaster’s stubbornness. Do you really want to listen?”
Nod
Without answering, Cheon Ha-yeon only bobbed her head.
“Young master Kim Mu-gong’s body is like a time bomb.”
It was a completely unexpected answer. Cheon Ha-yeon widened her eyes.
“What if it’s a ticking time bomb…?”
“At least one year. Other than saying that there is a high possibility that the bomb inside the body will explode and die within five years.”
“Then. It looks fine on the outside, but…?”
“The outside is not the problem. The inside is like a full window. At least, he is enduring because his body is naturally strong, otherwise it wouldn’t be strange if he died long ago.”
Chun Ha-yeon bit her lip. I never expected it to be that serious. I knew that I was seriously injured during the evaluation of the uninhabited island, but now it seems that there is no internal or external injury.
“…Is there any way to save Priest Kim Mu-gong?”
“That is up to Young master Kim Mu-gong himself.”
“In what way?”
“In the end, it is a problem caused by too much power despite the small size of the bowl, so just increase the size of the bowl. However, you have to go up to the Hwagyeong and go through the Phantasmal Metamorphosis before you can see it safely.”
Hwagyeong. It was a level that even Cheonhayeon hadn’t reached yet.
Should Kim Moo-gong reach that within a year?
It was close to impossible.
It won’t be easy even if given 5 years, let alone 1 year.
A solution flashed through Cheon Ha-yeon’s mind as she repeatedly struggled.
‘The union of yin and yang.’
Originally, Chinese medicine itself was born for the training of practitioners.
If you judge based on the sights you saw on the uninhabited island.
If used properly, it was certain that it would be the means to raise the level the fastest for himself and for Kim Moo-gong.
‘…No.’
The problem was, that was a method Cheon Ha-yeon could not choose. Chun Ha-yeon stood up from her seat while trying to hold back her excited breath from leaking through her red lips.
