Episode 207
Taoist training ground.
There were places all over the country of Yuldo, but the place Jinhyeok and Gildong visited had facilities that ranked among the highest among such martial arts training centers.
“The training ground within the palace is so good that it can be reached within your fingertips. “This shows how much I expect from you.”
“Aren’t you just trying to raise me quickly and make me a teacher?”
“… … Hehehe! “Let’s start right away.”
Gildong cleared his throat and averted his gaze and headed towards the center of the training ground.
Gildong arrived at a place full of training weapons prepared in advance and grabbed the wooden baton that suited him best.
Gildong, who was holding a wooden pole that was made of ordinary wood but was as hard as steel because it contained sword power and was smelted, swung the pole and snapped his fingers.
“Pick your brother too. “Because it’s easier to teach while fighting.”
“Do it with the sword.”
“Yeomso.”
Tuk-
Gildong, who threw the bladeless sword on the table behind him, immediately took his stance.
“Come.”
“I’m not refusing.”
Paang-
Jinhyeok, who was holding the sword and swinging it roughly, spread out his fingertips and kicked away at the sound of Gildong’s call.
Jinhyeok charged through the air and swung his sword fluidly.
Kaang!
A wooden baton and a blunt iron sword collide.
Sparks fly out with a metal sound that is hard to believe as the baton and sword collide, and at the same time, the wooden baton in Gildong’s hand shows a mysterious movement.
“Bunbong(分棒).”
Clap la la rock-
Five or six bong clones decorating the air.
As soon as they occupied the front line, they flew in, aiming for Jinhyeok’s blood vessels.
“It’s tough for sparring.”
“It’s a process of finding a Taoism that suits you!”
Gil-dong, who was shaking and swinging the baton like crazy, making a “sssssssu” sound, began to gradually overwhelm Jinhyuk. * * *
Huh-huh-huh-huh-
‘this… … It’s quite difficult.’
Every time Gildong swings the baton, a strong wind blows his hair and blocks his vision.
In addition, the elegant baton technique itself was a big problem.
‘Gil-dong’s magic was definitely wind arts.’
Those who inherited the name Gildong all learn the same wind techniques as their founder, but there is no need to know anything about it.
In any case, an attack that harmoniously mixed fire and wind techniques was very difficult.
‘My body is blocked by the wind, and Gildong’s body is helped by the wind – Tsk, isn’t that a completely selfish method?’
The characteristics of Taoism, which uses parts of nature, were clearly revealed here.
While your opponent is hindered by nature, you yourself receive help from nature.
It couldn’t have been this good when they were on the same side, but it couldn’t have been this bad when they were enemies.
“Brother! Hahaha! Why are you playing! “Come in rougher!”
“… … You’d better be prepared. “I’m going to go with all my heart from now on.”
Coo coo coo coo-
But even for a moment.
Looking at Gil-dong’s smiling face, Jin-hyuk perked up.
Gildong’s face turned pale as he saw the destructive energies coming together lightly.
“Hiccup! tongue… … “Hyung?”
“Clench your teeth.”
“ruler… … .for a moment! Brother, this is not it! “I came here to learn Taoism, so why bring out other things?”
“… … .”
Gil-dong, who took a step back and hung up the baton he had been happily swinging, urgently persuaded Jin-hyuk.
In response, Jinhyuk glared at Gildong and then sighed and lost his energy.
“If you’ve had enough fun, do it right.”
“… … “Okay.”
However, he noticed that Gil-dong was having fun pushing himself, so he pointed out that, and Gil-dong did not deny it either.
This time, Jinhyeok waved his hand as he looked at Gildong again, as if he was regretting it.
“do it properly. “Not twice.”
“… … “I said I knew.”
Facing Jinhyuk’s serious spirit, Gildong stuck out his tongue and started swinging the baton again.
Of course, this time, rather than just binge-watching, we mixed the explanations properly. * * *
Perfect! Ta-dak! Ta-dad-dad!
The sound of a baton hitting something continues to resonate.
Naturally, the epicenter of the sound was Jinhyuk’s body.
“… … Tsk.”
No matter how strong Jinhyuk is, that’s only when he unleashes all his strength.
If we spar as if we were fighting with kicks and guns like we do now, things will be different.
In addition, this is especially true when it comes to sparring where you only want to use martial arts, which can be said to be Gildong’s home ground.
In the first place, Jinhyeok did not know Taoism, so he had to spar with only swordsmanship, so it was no different from playing chess with a king instead of using kicks and guns.

Nevertheless, there is one reason why Jinhyuk was beaten while quietly clucking his tongue.
“Taoist arts can be said to be techniques derived from the four attributes of nature.”
Ta-dak!
“In the past, the founder created a new art with the power of thunder, free from the four attributes of nature, and it has come to be called today by the name of tactics (電術) or thunder art (雷術).”
Ta-dak!
This is because Gildong’s mouth was constantly talking about what Taoism is, even though he was playing hard with the bong.
It was the most basic story, but Jinhyuk did not listen to it in vain.
“Do more.”
“Sigh! Anyway, in order to learn Taoist arts, it is a good idea to first check which attributes are right for you!”
Ta-da-da-da-dak!
Meanwhile, Gil-dong was swinging his baton like crazy and directing the energy of nature to Jin-hyuk.
Even though it seemed like a random beating, it was a process of pouring the energy of nature into Jinhyuk and figuring out what energy was right for him.
“So what attributes are right for me?”
“I’m finding out now!”
Four properties of nature.
Earth, water, wind, fire.
Those four attributes reside in Gil-dong’s wooden pole and hit Jin-hyeok’s whole body.
Although it was a physical method, there was no method that was as effective.
Just- kurrr-
Every time the wooden pole imbued with the power of the earth touches, the earth trembles, and a heavy shock hits Jinhyeok.
This is the magic of the land.
It was a land skill.
And, as expected from an outstanding Taoist, Gildong was also good at using other types of magic besides wind and brain techniques.
Just- roar!
The wooden pole imbued with the power of fire created flames in the air every time it moved gracefully, disturbing the surroundings –
Just- wow!
A wooden pole imbued with the power of water helped heal injuries along with the coolness of the water.
Of course, it didn’t just have the power to heal.
Like formless water, it freely changes its shape, and there were certainly methods of entangling the whole body or strangling the neck.
This was Gil-dong’s judgment after seeing Jin-hyuk hit by all four attributes.
“… … Everything doesn’t match well. Hmm – cases like this are extremely rare.”
No talent.
It did not fit all four properties of nature.
Gildong, who had been excitedly beating up Jinhyeok for something extremely rare, had no choice but to stop.
“So the fact that I got hit didn’t mean anything- Well, is that what you’re talking about?”
“… … “Brother, please listen to what I have to say first!”
Kudangtangtang-
The sight of Gil-dong and Jin-hyuk rolling around on the floor continued until Jin-hyuk’s anger subsided.
Of course, it goes without saying that a little more time was needed for the conversation between Jinhyuk, who was relieved, and Gildong, whose face had turned into a steamed bun, to continue. * * *
“Ugh… … . Even though I am like this, I am still a king… … . You’re doing it too much, bro. “It’s not even my fault-”
“I understand if you’re doing this because you want to get hit harder.”
“… … .”
Gil-dong, who had been speaking bluntly while holding an egg close to his eye and rolling it around, closed his mouth when Jin-hyuk pulled out the Manbyun Spiritual Energy once again.
“All I can say is that that weapon is truly a fraud.”
“Because it’s a dog scam.”
“I guess you admit it.”
Manbyeon Honwongi.
A one-of-a-kind weapon created by two artisan-level blacksmiths and an All Master according to the recipe given by Baal.
Aside from its various abilities, the weapon itself boasted outstanding performance, with a level of perfection that was higher than that of any other weapon.
Therefore, no matter how Gil-dong he was, Jin-hyuk, who possessed all-powerful spirit, had no choice but to be beaten to dust on a rainy day.
Gildong, who was rolling the egg using the energy of water, made a judgment about the current situation.
“It seems that you are born with the qualities of a great master.”
“… … Grandmaster?”
“To put it simply, he is a being who creates his own Taoist arts. Of course it won’t be easy. “Over a long period of time, there were many people who had the qualifications to become a great master, but among them, only the progenitor and his close friends were successful.”
“Hong Gil-dong, Adventist Lord, Taoist Jeon Woo-chi. Are you talking about these three?”
“answer.”
Gildong, who was nodding his head and rubbing an egg, spread out three fingers and said.
“The progenitor created a magic that creates lightning, Doryeong Kanglim created a magic that manipulates the dead, and Taoist Jeon Woo-chi created an illusion that deceives the world. My brother, like those people, has the potential to create new Taoist arts. “Isn’t that such a great thing!”
Jinhyeok asked as he looked at Gildong, who was beaten up and covered in bruises and was shaking with joy.
“So how long does it take to create it?”
“… … Um, a few months at the earliest, a few months at the latest-”
“What if I’m late?”
When Jinhyeok swallows his saliva, thinking that stretching the end of his words might sound like something creepy.
“forever?”
“… … .”
A statement like a bomb exploded. * * *
“… … “Let’s leave the Taoist arts aside for now.”
This was Jinhyuk’s response after hearing that it might take a lifetime.
I didn’t know how long it would take, so I thought it would be right to give up on magic for today or a few days.
“But don’t worry. “Once you can create a Taoist spell, you will be able to manipulate the energies of your other attributes without difficulty.”
“What if I can’t make it take a lifetime?”
Accordingly, Gil-dong comforted Jin-hyuk.
However, despite the consolation, Jinhyeok gave a cold response.
“… … That’s up to you. The basis of creating Taoist arts is finding the quality that best suits you. The founder created a new level of noejutsu based on the windjutsu that runs like the wind. As the name suggests, Advent Doryeong is an underworld messenger who came down to this world and created magic related to spirits or the dead. Taoist Jeon Woochi is not much different. “For someone who always enjoyed deceiving others, the magic he used was genjutsu.”
“I created what suits me best as a Taoist technique… … “You mean that?”
“It’s similar. To be precise, it is safe to say that all of the Daejongsa’s magic arts belong to the Daejongsa himself. “Just as I can’t think of any other founder other than the one who drives the wind and lightning.”
“It means that the magic I will create will be no different from my own.”
“That’s correct. Now all the information is given. From now on, all I can say is that it’s up to you.”
Jinhyuk sighed and stood up as Gildong finished speaking, shaking his head.
“The magic is over, and the magic is over, so let’s go to the entrance of Yuldoguk.”
“Brother, you mean-?”
“I feel like I need to binge eat because my head is spinning.”
“my… … “I will guide you right away!”
voracity.
The moment Gildong heard the combination of the entrance to Yuldoguk and the word gluttony, he hurried out of the training center, feeling even happier than when he had seen the qualities of a great master before his eyes.
“That is truly unbecoming of a king. Well, isn’t that the typical thing for a guy to do?”
Gildong is always frivolous but never loses his smile.
He is not king-like, but that makes him even more Gil-dong-like and king-like.
After thinking that far, Jinhyuk muttered what Gildong had said and started following him.
“Melding myself with Taoist arts – that’s difficult.”
It seemed like there was still a long way to go before I could obtain my own magic.
It was also the fate of someone who walked a different path from others.
