Baek Sang let out a low sigh as he looked at Mount Hua.
I feel like the atmosphere is rather restless lately.
To be more precise, it felt like sothing was floating around.
Thinking about it, the atmosphere had been strange ever since Chung Myung entered Mount Hua, but it suddenly got worse after Chung Myung, and his party returned from Nanyang recently.
It was clear that the elders were excited about sothing.
Well, he must have done sothing great.
None of the second-class disciples would deny the power Chung Myung had. After two years of experience under him, they had no choice but to understand it, even if they didnt want to know.
Besides, he also received sothing from Chung Myung.
Quite frankly, how could the days when all they had to eat was grass, and all they had to wear were worn-out uniforms even be compared to now when they wear fine clothes and eat at until theyre tired?
No matter how hard they trained, even masters couldnt sustain themselves on dew alone. It couldnt be denied that these days were a hundred tis better than when the sect was suffering from financial difficulties.
But
Sotis, he missed the silence of the past Mount Hua.
At that ti, Mount Hua had a feeling of purity.
Maybe I am thinking too
Rumble.
Baek Sang looked up at the sudden sound.
Is it about to rain?
There was thunder
Rumble.
What?
Baek Sang, strangely, felt like it ca from the side.
Well, it wasnt out of the ordinary to hear thunder nearby when they lived so high up on the mountain
Rumble!
Baek Sang turned his head.
No. I dont think its thunder?
Baek Sangs eyes opened wide as he looked around for the source of this sound.
W-what is that?
Dust was rising from the residence of the sect leader.
It wasnt just an expression; dust was literally rising.
T-this
Rumble!
As the thunderous sound rang again, the entire residence shook.
Uh? I cant just go there, right?
It was definitely coming from the residence of the sect leader.
And
Achhhh!
No. Whats going on!?
Please! Please, dont overdo it! Please!
Baek Cheon, Yu Yiseol, his juniors, Hyun Jong, and an elder escaped from the residence at the speed of light. Baek Sang was stunned by the unexpected sight.
What now?
He didnt have much ti to think.
Rumble!
The sound of thunder ca crashing down as the entire building collapsed. The roof tiles scattered in all directions, and the pillars fell over.
Oh
That was a place that should never collapse like that. That
Was the house of the sect leader. It was the most important
Baek Sang murmured to himself unconsciously as he looked at the ruined residence with blank eyes.
Maybe the sect is really going well.
Really well. Disgustingly well
Hyun Jongs eyebrows convulsed at the sight of his pavilion collapsing.
That
He had nothing to say.
Ehhhh! Cough! Cough! Ah!
Hyun Young, who was coughing next to him, frowned.
What kind of forefathers does that bastard have to take down sothing like this!
No, bastard.
My house is the one collapsing. Do you have to act like this?
Tch, it looks like we have to build a new one.
Hyun Jongs ears, which had been slightly irritated, twitched.
A new house?
Oh. That sounds good.
Getting a new house was definitely a good thing. But Hyun Jong couldnt determine if he should be sad that the old house collapsed or happy that he would be getting a new one.
Oh, no.
That wasnt important now!
Hyun Jong shook his head and straightened his neck.
What happened to Chung Myung?
Huh? Where?
Are you getting old? There! In there.
Hyun Jong narrowed his eyes and looked to where Hyun Young was pointing to.
The wreckage of the collapsed house shook a couple tis as a man crawled out from it.
Hey, why did this collapse!? Who was it!? What kind of bastards did this?
It was you, you brat.
You did it, you did!
Chung Myung erged with a fit of tantrums and clicked his tongue at the collapsed house.
How weak did the building have to be for this to collapse!? The builders must have skimped on so materials!
Hyun Jong sighed as if there was no way he could answer that.
Sect leader, sahyung. Wasnt that the Five Qi Chaoyuan.
Well
Hyun Jong drooled a little at those words.
It felt a little different from what I know of it. Ive heard that when it happens, five-colored circles appear when the person has gone into performing the Five Qi Chaoyuan. There was a five-color glow, but it wasnt quite the sa, right?
then sothing similar to that?
Well.
Hyun Jong smiled bitterly.
Anyway, it seems to have co from consuming the Soul Vitality Pill.
Looking at Chung Myung, Hyun Jong smiled.
After consuming that pill, Chung Myungs body began floating in the air, then he emitted a five-colored light. At this point, wouldnt that an that he was at the peak of absorbing and cultivating?
Well then, sect leader.
What now?
Just how much stronger is he now?
Hyun Jong shut his mouth.
How much had he grown?
Uh
Seeing Hyun Jong unable to speak, Hyun Youngs eyes narrowed.
Even the sect leader doesnt know?
Ahem. As if that could be true!
Then why arent you speaking?
No. Co on, man! How could I possibly know that!?
He had never witnessed or even heard of such a thing in his life. The sa guy who fought an elder of Wudang to a standstill took a pill and beca even stronger. How could Hyun Jong understand what his level was?
He couldnt even ask for a match with Chung Myung.
Very um, extrely strong I am certain.
So, um huhuhu. It will be tough for to put it into words.
D-dont look at with those eyes.
Hyun Young sighed as Hyun Jong carefully avoided his gaze.
Anyway, being strong is a good thing.
Right. That is a good thing.
It was unknown if this was a good thing or not for now, they were flying high.
While everyone was buzzing around, Chung Myung looked down at his hands.
I didnt expect.
There is a limit to the qi that can be extracted from a pill and absorbed. The qi accumulated in his body is the purest qi in the world. No matter how refined the pill was, it could not be compared to Chung Myungs pure qi.
Wasnt that why there was no significant growth in Chung Myung after taking the pill in the past?
However, the Soul Vitality Pill was different from what Chung Myung thought.
The qi it had wasnt very high compared to the Supre Pill. Instead, it was several tis purer.
Perhaps
This is the most perfect item for ?
Of course, he couldnt absorb even half of the qi he received, and he had to discharge the rest, but where did the other half go?
When he ate the pill in the cave before, he couldnt absorb even a handful of the qi! This ti, he had gotten a full half of it!
Thanks to that
Chung Myung clenched his fist and extended it.
His body felt full of vitality.
I still have a long way to go.
It was still a long way off from regaining his power from the past. But thanks to this, it felt like he was finally at the starting line after a long ti.
Hmm.
With a satisfied smile, Chung Myung slowly turned his head. His sahyungs all stood there watching.
That disgusting monster!
He must have surely gotten stronger!
There, look at that light in his eyes. Is that person human? Is he a human?
The sahyungs, who were familiar with Chung Myung, noticed that the waves of qi emanating from his body were stronger than before.
The heavens must be impartial. Why are the results so different despite eating the sa pill?
At this point, it was flustering.
Pills alone dont determine a persons success. So people consu pills and get stronger, while so eat them and end up floating in the air and blowing up residences. Wasnt that a little too unfair?
Hyun Young ran to Chung Myung.
How is it? The effects?
Kuak, elder! This might actually make live!
T-then. Thank God!
Chung Myung smacked his lips.
This is more effective than I thought, right?
What Chung Myung lacked the most right now was internal qi. He thought that there was no way to increase his qi other than with the passage of ti, as pure qi was hard to make. But now, he found another way.
This
If I eat more, will it increase further?
Chung Myung glanced at Hyun Jong with shining eyes, and Hyun Jong tightly clenched the box of pills in his hand.
Oh, No.
It was clear that he was aiming for the Soul Vitality Pill. But this needed to be saved for the future of Mount Hua.
Never! Never!
Chung Myung walked toward Hyun Jong with an innocent smile.
Sect leader.
Y-yes?
I dont think itll be a big deal if we use a few more pills.
T-this?
Hyun Jong stepped back.
No!
Before Chung Myung could say anything, Hyun Jong scread.
What do you think will happen in the future!? Mount Hua has yet to establish a functioning dical hall! If soone gets seriously injured, we have to use this to save them!
Ahh!
Chung Myung exclaid as if moved.
Chung Myung thought that the sect leader was just behaving pitifully by hoarding these pills, but his actions held such a deep aning. Again, there was no one who cared about the disciples here more than Hyun Jong.
But Hyun Jong didnt know.
That he had just made a massive mistake.
Ah, so. You an to say that youll keep it to use when soone gets injured or sothing?
Y-yes?
Hyun Jong sensed sothing was amiss from Chung Myungs tone and flinched. He felt certain that the disciple must have misunderstood sothing.
Sect leader.
Yes?
I would like to thank you.
Chung Myung bowed his head; however, the polite reaction only further incited Hyun Jongs anxiety.
Chung Myung raised his head and opened his mouth with a smirk.
Yunnan is a dangerous place! This dicine will be a great help to the disciples who are entering that dangerous place! Again, that dangerous place! A place where you never know what will happen! In a land ruled by terrifying barbarians!
No, you just said youd break their heads open.
Kuaa, sect leader! Im fine! This Chung Myung will continue to constantly risk his life for the sake of Mount Hua.
Uh
B, U, T!
Chung Myung shook his head.
If the sasuks and sahyungs that are coming with to that dangerous place get injured and die right before my eyes, I dont think I will have peace even after death!
Uh Uh?
Why did the story end up like this?
N-No, that
In that dangerous situation, just one pill no, three! No, all we might need are five pills!
Why does it keep going up.
You little mugger! Robbing in broad daylight!
I think well be able to return alive with just five of them! Just five! Haha sigh but that cant be spared, can it? Because those Soul Vitality Pill are for the future of Mount Hua.
R-right
Chung Myung looked at Baek Cheon.
Sasuk! In sect leaders eyes, Sasuk isnt the future of Mount Hua!
Why are you dragging into this!? You idiot!
But what Im saying is right! My word! Oh my, this sect! The disciples are putting their lives on the line and walking right into deadly battles, but they think the pills are wasted on us! Pills are valued over n!
At that mont
Tak!
Soone put their hand on Hyun Jongs shoulder.
When he turned around, Hyun Jong saw Hyun Young with a weird smile.
just give it up.
Isnt that better than dying from frustration?
Hyun Jong grabbed his head.
I-I will give them to you! You thief!
As ti passed, Hyun Jongs words towards Chung Myung turned harsh.
