Chapter 33

The first time I saw it, it was clear that Cheongmyungdae was a place to test those who had mastered the Divine Law.
There were many floats in the lake and a high rock wall at the end of the road…….
were artificial gateways to test all Nanyagak disciples’ mastery of the Divine Law.
“Whatever it is, we have to climb it.”
Bu Eun-sul, his eyes strengthened, slowly began to climb up the rock face.
At first, the rock face was uneven and uneasy, making it difficult to climb.
But as she got further up, the rock became more smooth, making it harder to climb.
Tut-tut-tut.
I lost my footing for a moment, and a rock rolled downward.
I looked down and realized I could barely see the ground below. It was at least forty feet high.
He looked up and gritted his teeth.
There were still well over a hundred more to climb. If he fell at this rate while climbing the rock wall, his bones would be crushed and he would die.
Thud.
His fingertips were dripping with blood.
But Bu Eun-sul climbed and climbed and climbed with an expressionless face like a man made of steel.
Her fear was not of falling off the cliff, but of not mastering the art properly.
“Exhale.”
As the rocks became smoother and smoother, Bu Eunseol drew in her Half-Pole Core Gong.
Ssshhh. Sigh.
Every time she lifted her finger, she heard a strange wind noise.
She’d never learned the art. But now that she was climbing the dangerous rock face with her bare hands, she was instinctively creating suction.
Poof.
At that moment, the tip of the stone beak that Bu Eunsul was holding split slightly.
At the same time, his body tilted and began to fall downward.
“No!
If he fell from this height, it would be difficult to recover even a bone fragment.
As he fell down the rock face, Bu Eunseol found a gap that looked like a gap between stone and stone.
“Ha!”
Without thinking, he drew up the Anti-Polar Core Technique with all his might and thrust his left hand into it.
Kwajik.
With a bone-crunching sound, Bu Eunseol’s falling body stopped.
Jurrrrrr.
He shoved his hand through the rock, the flesh on his wrist and the back of his hand ripped open, and blood spurted out in a gurgling stream.
“Thank God.
Fortunately, no bones were broken.
But a mind-numbing, excruciating pain shot through his body. His vision blurred and blood rose to his throat, but Buunseol continued to climb the rock face with a grim expression.
Tumble.
Finally, Buunsul reached the top of the rock face.
His whole body was covered in dust, and blood was constantly oozing from his fingertips and torn shoes.
“Whoa, whoa…….”
With each exhale, the skin on his body burned.
Pain, aches, and agony.
While climbing the rock wall, Bu Eun-sul felt every pain and suffering that the human body can experience.
But he walked on with his shoulders stretched even further. No pain or trial could bend his body.
“…….”
As he walked, Buunseol’s pupils grew larger.
He came to a small pavilion on an open spot overlooking the surrounding landscape.
It had a shabby and ordinary appearance that was common in Bujung Alley. However, it seemed to hold something special as it blended into the beautiful landscape.
“Cheongmyeong Daru…….”
Under the eaves of the Daru, you can see the words Cheongmyeongdaru.
“……?”
It’s hard to believe that such a teahouse is located deep in the mountains, but as I get closer, I can smell the rich tea aroma.
Buunseol felt a fierce thirst like never before.
Hmph.
Like a drunkard at a tavern, I rushed to the door and entered, and saw a neatly organized landscape.
But the interior was empty, with only the sound of tea boiling in the kitchen.
“No one’s home.
Bu Eun-sul couldn’t help but turn around to look inside.
Just then,
“Welcome home.”
A deep voice echoed from behind her.
Turning around, she saw an old man with combed white hair standing in front of the kitchen, squinting.
‘I didn’t see any sign of him…….’
Bu Eunseol couldn’t hide her surprise.
Even though she had mastered the Beast Dao and could even sense the flow of air, she hadn’t noticed anything until the old man walked out of the kitchen?
“Sit this way.”
The old man’s eyes were closed, so he couldn’t see properly, his back was slouched, and his gait was slightly staggered.
Still, he walked over to her very casually and pointed to a nearby table.
As if mesmerized, Bu Eun-sul followed the old man’s lead and sat down at the table.
“Heh.”
The old man clicked his tongue when he realized that Bu Eun-sul’s face was in shambles.
“What do you do that makes you look like that?”
“I swam and climbed a rock wall.”
“What?”
The old man’s eyes widened at Bu Eun-sul’s blunt answer.
“You mean to tell me that you swam across the Lingyue Lake and climbed the Lion Rock barefoot?”
The old man couldn’t hide his incredulity.
“Well, once you enter the Nangya Pavilion, all the disciples take up one strange hobby or another.”
“I’m…….”
Bu Eun-sul started to say, “I’m here to learn the Divine Law,” but the old man held out his hand.
“Sit down first. I’ll make some tea soon.”
Then he went back to the kitchen.
As she watched, Bu Eun-sul was stunned again.
She could detect the sound of falling leaves a dozen yards away, but she couldn’t hear the old man’s footsteps at all.
“Listen.”
Meanwhile, the old man who had entered the kitchen had already placed a steaming cup of tea on the table.
“Old man.”
Without even looking at the teacup, Bu Eun-sul stood up and carefully clasped her hands together.
“I’m Bu Eun-sul, a newcomer to the Nangya Pavilion.”
“You say you’ve never seen me before.”
The old man nodded, as if his curiosity was satisfied, and turned toward the bustling kitchen.
“Take your time, then.”
“Old man.”
Bu Eun-sul clasped her hands together once more.
“Please teach me the Divine Law.”
“I can’t teach you.”
“Why is that?”
“Why? You don’t know the rules of the main hall.”
The old man explained.
“Now that you’ve become a disciple of the main hall, you can learn martial arts from any of the masters of the main hall.”
But the old man smirked.
“But you can’t force someone to learn if they don’t teach you. Do you know what I mean?”
“I am well aware of that.”
“Then you know it.”
The old man turned away, and Bu Eun-sul bit her lip.
He intuitively knew that this time, he would have to sell someone else’s name, not his own.
“Mr. Blood River sent me.”
Bu Eunsul pushed her lower stomach and spoke loudly.
“Master Blood Gold River told me to come to Yi Daru to learn the Divine Laws and the Martial Arts.”
“Blood Gold River?”
“That’s right.”
The old man who had stopped walking turned around with a surprised expression.
“He sent you here?”
“Yes.”
Then the old man’s eyes lit up in wonder.
“Why would he…….”
The emotion in his voice seemed very complicated.
Apparently, the old man had a deep history with the Blood Gold River.
After a long silence, the old man let out a deep sigh and spoke again.
“Will you also be learning the Inner Gong Shen from him?”
At the word ‘you’, Bu Eunsun’s eyes fluttered slightly.
“So, there was someone who learned the Anti-Polar Core Technique from Elder Bloodgold River in the past.
“That’s right.”
“Hmph.”
The old man sighed deeply.
He looked at the distant sky outside the window and spoke in a low voice.
“I’ll tell you the truth. The old man has decided not to pass on the Divine Law to anyone anymore.”
“Why?”
“You haven’t heard the reason.”
The old man’s eyes narrowed as he gazed into the distance.
“It is because he, like the Blood Gold River, drove many of …… Nangyagak’s disciples to their deaths.”
“To death…….”
Looking at the blackened eyes of the old man, Bu Eunsun suddenly realized the meaning of those words.
-At first, Dan Qing, he said he would send me a technique to master the Anti-Polar Core Technique, but now ten years have passed.
Recalling what Feng Keqiang had said, Bu Eunsul immediately realized the complexity of the situation.
“The old man hasn’t been waiting for ten years, he’s been teaching Nangyagak’s disciples all this time.
For ten years, he had taught many of Nangyagak’s disciples.
However, none of them would have been able to master the Anti-Polar Core Technique, because it causes death-like pain…….
“He sent…… means that you have mastered the Anti-Polar Core Technique.”
“Yes.”
“I’m surprised. You’ve only been here a couple months.”
The old man stroked the swollen tongue up and down in astonishment.
“And you’ve already reached the first layer of the Half-Polar Core Realm?”
“I’ve reached the Jay layer.”
“What?”
The old man asked, and Bu Eunseol lowered her head with a contrite face.
“Because of my poor quality, I have only cultivated to the second layer.”
The old man swallowed his dumbfoundedness and couldn’t open his mouth.
He had witnessed countless disciples who had either killed themselves or become demigods in their attempts to cultivate the Anti-Polar Heart Technique.
Even a heavenly talisman would need more than a year of cultivation to reach the first level.
To reach the second level in just two months?
“You reached the second level?”
“That’s right.”
“I see.”
Only then did the old man understand what Blood Gold River meant.
“What a braggart.
The old man nodded, remembering Dan Qing, the great lord who had found the Qingming Daolord not long ago.
The young man in front of him was not only extremely talented, but he was also a heavenly talent with an undying soul that could withstand any trial.
“Very well. I will teach you the Divine Law.”
Hearing the old man’s words, Feng Shui clasped his hands together and bowed deeply.
“Thank you.”
“You don’t need to thank me. If you listen to the old man’s explanation from now on, you’ll probably think differently.”
“I’ll wash my ears and listen.”
“Nobu is called Gowol.”
The old man who identified himself as Gowol had a mountain of prayer running through his body.
“In the past, I was called Extreme Speedlessness.”
As if reminiscing about the past, the old man’s eyes were filled with a deep movie.
“The old man was originally a great daoist, so not only did he have to be faster than anyone else, but he had to unleash his divine arts while avoiding attacks.”
The old man, Gao Yue, spoke with pride in his eyes.
“The divine art I’m going to teach you is called the Divine Martial Art, which blurs the boundaries between divine law and the Law of the Land. I’ve named it the Extreme Speed Martial Art after the old man’s star sign.”
His eyes gradually lost their shine as he continued.
“For a long time, Nobu tried to pass on this art to Nangyagak’s disciples, but they all failed and…… became crippled.”
Bu Eun-sul couldn’t understand.
The Inner Gong Shen method is a delicate and dangerous martial art that involves controlling the energy within the body.
But to be crippled while practicing a divine technique to lighten the body?
“Why did you fail?”
“There are two reasons. First, this is a technique that constantly drains your internal strength. If you don’t have a solid inner ball to support you, you might even suffer internal injuries.”
Gao Yue continued.
“But even worse than that, if you perform it incorrectly, you could even have your legs chopped off.”
Bu Eunseol’s eyes widened.
“You mean my legs will be chopped off while performing the Divine Law?”
This was incomprehensible.
A person’s legs could be chopped off just for unfolding the Divine Laws or the Bo Laws incorrectly.
Where in the world is such a law?
“Watch.”
Better to demonstrate once than explain a hundred times.
Gao Yue floated in the air for a moment, then landed back on her feet.
Watching, Bu Eun-sul had to doubt her own eyes.
‘That’s the Kakushoku Muyoung…….
If he hadn’t mastered the Beast Dao, he wouldn’t have been able to detect the subtlety of the move.
Gao Yue had obviously only shifted slightly in place, but it had changed its position forty-four times in that time.
There was a moment of silence inside the Daru.
Heavy air escaped through the window,
“You saw it.”
Gao Yue looked at Bu Eunseol’s expression and said with pride.
“The Golden Floating Divine Law, the highest divine law of the Zheng Sect, can change direction four times in place.”
Gao Yue’s eyes flashed as he continued.
“However, Old Man’s Extreme Speed Martial Art can change direction ninety-nine times in place. This is because it combines the Divine Laws and the Laws of the Treasury.”
If Bu Eun-sul had been trained in both the Divine Law and the Law of the Land, he would not have believed him.
The Divine Laws are merely an extension of the Inner Gongshim Laws. On the other hand, the Bo method is a martial art based on progression.
“Do you understand why performing this extreme speed kung fu will cripple you?”
“Because you were changing your position in a row earlier.”
“So.”
“For a short period of time, you’re moving at high speeds in thin air, so if you step on the wrong footing, your legs will collide.”
When Bu Eunsul explained it correctly, Gao Yue nodded as she savored her food.
“There are many stable divine laws in the Martial Forest. To be honest, if you’re not going to steal, there’s no need to learn these dangerous techniques.”
Bu Eunsul could understand Gao Yue’s explanation.
No one would risk having their legs blown off just to learn a single divine technique.
“Are you thinking of becoming a master?”
“No.”
“Then I suggest you learn other divine arts, for there are many masters in this sect who have mastered great divine arts.”
Bu Eunsul stared at Gao Yue and said in a firm voice.
Shaking her head, Bu Eunsul spoke up.
“I’ll learn your divine method.”
Gao Yue looked incomprehensible.
“Is it because of the words of the Blood Gold River?”
Bu Eunsul said with an unwavering gaze.
“I trust my senses.”
“Senses?”
“Yes.”
Feng Shui had a hunch.
That Gao Yue’s Divine Law, which could not even detect footsteps in front of her, would be the best in Nangyagak.
“Mm.”
Gao Yue looked into Bu Eun-sul’s eyes with conviction.
He too could feel it in his gut.
The long-awaited equipment that would allow him to master the Extreme Speed Martial Art was standing in front of him.
