Chapter 716 – Laughter of Martial Arts
In such a situation, Koo Jin-in, who heard the forgotten proposal from Seong-il again, looks at his immediate predecessor and the deceased of the same school with a bland expression of joy and regret coexisting.
『I’m sure you believe that you won’t do anything to earn others’ jealousy by making fun of your mouth for no reason.』
Seong-il, who had roughly grasped his personality through a conversation with Guo-jin, not long ago, knew very well that Guo-jin was not a great person who would cause trouble by making unnecessary talk. Therefore, Seong-il, who left only a light warning, told him the place to meet the next day in whole numbers and then left.
‘There’s plenty of time left. Shall we check the rewards?’
Seong-il, sitting on the inner plane, opens the game master in a relaxed pose, feeling the relaxation he has been feeling for a long time.
“Congratulations!! You cleared the Main Quest and Hidden Quest of LOL. Get your reward! (100,000 points and items)』
“Yeah~”
When he finally clears the game world that has plagued him for a long time, Seong-il exclaims with a very happy expression and touches the screen of his phone.
“First of all, the main quest reward…”
Since he prefers larger gifts, Seong-il naturally presses the reward button in the main quest. Then, a book covered in old leather appeared before his eyes.
* War God’s Book: Dismantles C-class or lower items and allows you to absorb the unique power of the artifact as a skill. However, in the case of an artifact with multiple powers, only one of the multiple powers of the artifact is randomly absorbed. Target item is destroyed. (Can be used once)
‘Aren’t you using a C-class or lower item as a sacrifice to absorb its power?’
The appearance of a clear reward item with strange performance. At first, Seong-il, who was slightly disappointed at the appearance of an ambiguous consumable item as a clear reward, had a strong idea.
‘For a moment…!! If I use this for a soul mask…?’
Seong-il looks at the Book of Gods of War again, recalling the spirit mask, which is no different from his main item, in the main item obtained in the C-class game world.
‘Although the soul mask is a really good artifact… The mask is always at risk of being lost or damaged. However, if I disassemble the artifact and replace it with my own skill, I can get out of that danger…!!’
Even in C-class items, there are no artifacts that can be used for valuable items such as the Book of God of War, except for restraint items such as black balls and white balls. Because of this, Seong-il realizes that the soul mask is the only item to use the Book of God of War.
‘Also, disassembling black balls and white balls is a bit like that. You’re imprisoning the opponent in my body…’
‘In the worst case, there is a way to get the original mask that Elysia has, or to copy it using an item copy ticket.’
Seong-il, who thought so, uses the book of martial arts without hesitation and absorbs the skill of the soul mask.
Wooddeuk!!!
When an old book is torn, intense power radiates towards the soul mask. Seong-il feels a strange sense of regret as he sees the mask he has been saving for a long time shattering.
‘Wait… Come to think of it, among the additional features of the soul mask, there is a voice modulation function!? Couldn’t it be… That they didn’t copy it!?’
The time when Seong-il was sorry and regretted the hasty item use. He feels an intense spirit force fill his body. In addition, Seongil now felt strongly that he had deepened his understanding of the soul.
‘…This is definitely a copy of the clone-related skill.’

‘Something… I feel like my understanding of the soul has deepened?’
After Seong-il breaks the soul mask and absorbs the skill, he feels that for some reason, not only has his understanding of the soul deepened, but also the number of split spirits he can hold in his body has increased.
“Oh… It feels like you can control at least eight of your second half-souls, right? Honey!!”
Satisfaction appears on Seong-il’s face as the gamble he tried provides an unexpected result.
“Should I check out the hidden mission…”
During the battle with the blood god, Seong-il made all kinds of investments to clear them while keeping them alive. Therefore, he expects that the hard work he has put in will be rewarded.
『You not only saved Hyemyeong and Hyewon, but you also perfectly succeeded in subduing the blood gods together with them. To praise that great achievement, we will reward you with two special items.』
* Mugeuk Shindan: An elixir of absolute performance that raises the user’s internal energy to the next level. It is an elixir with the divine power that there is no limit to breaking through. It is recommended to take it at the highest stage of the inner core method.
“Wow!”
Seong-il, who had raised the heavenly, earthy, yin-yang, and yin-yang divine art to the level of 11-star polarity. Recently, he repeated dual wielding with quite a number of partners, but the training speed was very slow compared to before.
Because of this, he has been feeling a little impatient lately. In the meantime, when an item that solves his troubles appears, he feels as if the blockage has been opened.
“This is going to catch me sooner or later and use it.”
Seong-Il felt that when he recently broke through the 12-star Divine Power of Heaven, Earth, Yin-Yang, he had to do it after he was fully prepared in a safe place. Right now, he remembers very well how the two friends almost went to waste after taking the Great Hwandan in the Inner Plain, where spirits were weak, so he decides to thoroughly prepare for this opportunity.
“What’s the second reward?”
Seong-il carefully picks up the book in front of his eyes and tries to confirm its identity, like a child who received a present at Christmas when he was young.
* Gwanghyeol Magicong (狂血魔功): You can perfectly learn the martial arts contained in this by tearing the secret level. This martial art can make one’s own or others’ blood run wild, instantly activating internal energy and strength several times stronger. Of course, since it is a secret technique that consumes blood maniacally, serious side effects can occur.
* When the spirits of each other are connected by serving the blood god, the apostle makes the subordinate’s blood boil, allowing the follower to use the light blood magic for an instant even if he has not mastered the light blood magic.
“…Isn’t this a bit off?”
At first glance, since it is a magical art that gnaws at the target’s body, it seems that there is nothing good about it if you learn it. Because of this, Seong-il looks a bit disappointed when he sees the last reward.
“Well, even if it’s just points, martial gods and martial arts books, it’s great as a reward.”
Since he could be quite satisfied with the previous three rewards, Seong-il ignores the last reward and wants to be satisfied with the previous one.
“…?”
In the meantime, a positive feeling passes through his head. For some reason, Emotion reads the law of causality and informs himself that light blood magic is a very useful martial art.
“Why…?”
No matter how you look at it, it is a martial art that eats away at the user’s body and leads to destruction, so Seong-il does not understand the advice of Gamyeong. Even if he concedes a hundred times and benefits his follower by using the ability, he will feel severe remorse, so he is still reluctant to learn light blood magic.
“But in case you don’t know…”
Thinking so, Seong-il takes out the gold coin of fate and tries fortune telling by bouncing it in the air. However, the reverse side of denial that appears one after another when he is asked whether it is positive to let himself or his followers use that martial art directly. After seeing the result, Seong-il looks more confused as he does not understand the situation.
“What? What am I missing? If I and my follower can’t use it, who the hell should I use this for? Minds need to be firmly linked, so it seems impossible to use them against enemies? Wait… Mind?”
As he murmurs the word connected mind, Seong-il feels a good idea pass through his head.
“…Connected spirits? Could this be?! To an alter ego?!”
Seong-il, who came up with an idea just in case, flicks a fortune teller’s gold coin into the air to see if his idea is correct. And the obverse of the gold coin that appears.
