Chapter 114
Byeok Tae-san slowly walked towards the theater where the party was fighting. He felt pressure on his body, but he couldn’t find it in himself to care. It was because of Jinbeop that Byeok Tae-san had gathered his party in the dance hall earlier.
He didn’t know much about Jinbeop, but because of his excellent sense, he could quickly figure out how it was activated and where there were gaps. Even if he did not activate Jinbeop, he was able to infer through the flow of qi.
Byeok Tae-san took a seat in the black iron chamber and as soon as he anticipated that there would be an enemy raid. He then looked closely at the black iron chamber. This was so that he could recognize the existence of Jinbeop. The reason why he was sure that the enemies would surely come to the Heukcheolbang was because of Jinbeop.
He did not grasp the efficacy of Jinbeop, but he did grasp the gaps. That gap was the dance hall that drove the party into it. It was a place like a blank space of qi, where the flow of various qi was intertwined and as a result, all effects were canceled out.
Even when he was fighting the Margin Coffin earlier, he found that he had to withstand the pressure on his body. Not only did it apply pressure, but it also disrupted the natural flow of Qi. It was a method of applying restrictions in various ways, and Byeok Tae-san endured all of them with his body and fought Majin-gwan.
If it weren’t for Jinbeop, he would have just smashed it in one breath without having to make such a cumbersome plan. Anyway, as he walked through the power of Jinbeop, he arrived at the gymnasium.
The party was still in full swing. Still, most of the enemies were eliminated and only ten were left. Byeok Tae-san looked at it and licked his tongue. “Are you tired already? This… I need to change the direction of my training.”
Hearing Byeok Tae-san’s murmuring, suddenly the gangsters and the gods of Cheonchu screamed and rushed at the remaining ones. In addition to this, Cheon Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon moved quickly and hit them behind them. The rest of the people suddenly started attacking with all their might.
He was able to clean up the rest of them in an instant. Byeok Tae-san approached them only after the fight was over. He looked closely to make sure no one was hurt. There were as many as sixty people who fought the improved blood group.
First, blood stained the arms, legs, and sides of the quarrels could be seen. Byeok Tae-san’s eyebrows twitched. The condition of Hao Mundo was even worse. But no one was seriously injured to death.
Cheon Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon’s wounds were the worst. There was blood everywhere, and each wound was quite deep. Cheon Chushinui, Ilchimkai, and Cho Seo-ran had a lot of wounds, but they were all just scratches.
“It’s hard to know where to start again.”
Byeok Tae-san said so and shook his head. Hearing those words, the group’s complexion turned pale.
“Oh, Confucius. Still, haven’t we done well? Because they were really unusual? The black wine doesn’t work, and the strength is insane…”
As Cheon Chushinui spoke up there, he shouted as he opened his eyes wide as if he had remembered something. “And the truth! I mean, there was even a truth! But didn’t you hold out like this!”
Byeok Tae-san laughed bitterly. “Do you know what effect that Jinbeop has had on you?”
At this, Cheon Chushinui bit his lips. He had nothing to say. As he rolled his eyeballs gently, Chushinui took a step back.
“You’d better check it out yourself.” Tae-san mumbled so and nodded. Come to think of it, the effect of Jinbeop was pretty good. It was limited to training. If you improved this well, it would be easy to prevent intrusion from outside.
Of course, to do that, you needed a craftsman. There was still no Jinbeopga under Byeok Tae-san.
‘By the way, how many Jinbeop masters were there in Hyanghwaru?’

Of course, the level was so low that I had no intention of bringing them in. If one were to instruct Haomen, he would indeed find a skilled jinbeop master. If they couldn’t recruit, Byeok Tae-san would have to go directly.
“Everyone, follow me.”
Byeok Tae-san, who had organized his thoughts, led the party and headed out of the gym. They all followed with a tired expression. Today’s schedule wasn’t as easy as he thought it would be. It was because he had to go to hell through training the whole time, and then he had to take a break to fight the enemy.
Unable to hide their tiredness, the eyes of the people who came out of the gymnasium became as small as a candle. It was because of the sudden pressure on the body. After a while, they realized that it wasn’t the only effect. Their senses were also blurred, and when they used their inner strength to withstand the pressure, he noticed that the flow of qi was not smooth.
What would have happened if one had fought them before in this situation? It was creepy. They looked at Tae-san with new eyes. “Confucius, did you drive us to the gym because of this?”
At Cheon’s question, Tae-san lightly nodded his head. “Isn’t that a fun trick?”
No one answered. Did one really have to say this is funny?
“Shouldn’t we stop the activation of Jinbeop? We’ll just have to find the axle and break it.”
Everyone nodded at Cheon Chushinui’s words. While they were here it would be beneficial to use the Heukcheolbang, because it would be really inconvenient if this method was working. No, it could have been more dangerous than uncomfortable.
“The notion continues.”
“Yes?”
“Why are you destroying such a good environment for training?”
“Ah…!”
Everyone opened their mouths and looked at Tae-san. They never imagined that he would connect this to their practice.
“Woah, isn’t it dangerous?” Cheon Chushinui asked with earnestness. What came back was Byeok Tae-san’s sneer.
“Isn’t it dangerous without it? Wouldn’t it be safer to become stronger through training?”
With that, he had nothing to say. After everyone shut their mouths, silence came. For a while, they just walked along with him. They soon arrived at the square that they used as their hostel. Naturally, the power of Jinbeop was at work in the front engraving. The only place in the entire Heukcheolbang where the power of Jinbeop did not reach was the dance hall where the party fought.
“Go in today, treat your wounds first, and rest well. And while you sleep, adapt to the power of Jinbeop.”
Everyone looked at him as they swallowed. Tae-san waved his hand as if to quickly enter. Everyone entered the front row without any effort.
Treatment was no problem. This was because he had Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai and even Cho Seo-ran. Byeok Tae-san turned around and left the Heukcheol Room when everyone in the party went inside and started treatment.

It was late at night, but the Heukcheolbang was still noisy. People from Haomen were cleaning up the black iron room. There was a lot more to sort out than previously thought. He had to clean up the corpses scattered throughout the Heukcheolbang, and he also had to clean up the corpses and traces of those who ran away from the black liquor while besieging the outside of the Heukcheolbang.
Since there were so many, it took a long time to organize them even though Hao Mundo came out in large numbers. The Haomundos were called by Byeok Tae-san himself. Everyone was injured and was being treated for injuries, so he decided to move on his own.
It was not difficult as all he had to do was go to Geumokru, the branch of Haomen Uichang, and give instructions. However, Byeok Tae-san immersed in deep reflection throughout the work.
This was because this was something he had never done or even thought about before. No matter how badly injured his subordinate, he would do such a troublesome job on behalf of his subordinate. No matter how serious the injury was, either the subordinate would take care of the job, or the subordinate would take care of it after treatment.
However, today, he didn’t get seriously injured, so even though no one was hurt on the eve of his death, Byeok Tae-san moved himself.
He stood on the top of the empty pavilion and watched the movement of Haomundo, and then flew away. Now it was time to leave it to them and go to sleep. From tomorrow onwards, for the time being, his subordinates planned to be thrown into the swamp of training. And Byeok Tae-san himself had a separate job to do.

Heukcheolbang was attacked, and Homuryeon -ju sighed. “I expected it to happen, but it is bittersweet that it actually happened.”
“Isn’t there anything I could do? They laid the ground rice very well.”
“No, we were impatient. And I didn’t do it properly. There was enough way to look both ways.”
“It is already in the past. And didn’t it block it nicely? It is more important from now on.”
“It is.” He nodded and looked at his general.
“Isn’t infinity any good?”
“Isn’t the patrol leader very competent? I got a call just yesterday that it was progressing smoothly.”
“Good luck.”
“I’m more concerned about the Moorimmaeng, Heukryeon, and the five generations.”
“Why is that? But because of infinite advance?”
“No. In fact, it was a bit early for the infinite expansion, but in the end, this was what it was going to be.”
“That’s right.”
“So it doesn’t matter… Perhaps their movements are somehow not natural.”
“What do you mean unnatural?”
“The goal is not to advance to infinity, but it seems to be hiding something else.”
Homuryeon-ju shook his head sharply. “My head hurts. Still, I’m out of my mind because of those crazy people who dare shake their spears.”
“Those crazy people seem to be touching the side of Moorimmaeng, Heukryeon, and Oh Dae-se as well.”
“What?”
“It is still just a doubt. There is no clear evidence, and we have not heard their opinions.”
“But doesn’t that mean that the chance is over seven hundred when the governor said that?”
At this, the general bowed his head slightly. “Huh. Could it be that this anonymous group of crazy people is doing all these things at once? If so, I have no idea how big they are.”
“So that’s what I’m saying…”
“Tell me.”
“How about more active support for Byeok Tae-san?”
“Byeok Tae-san?”
“Yes. So I hope to build up more favors and then definitely include them.”
“Suppression, it’s good. It’s really just what I want. Still, they’re openly targeting them, so if we’re sure we can help, the Byeok Tae-san guy won’t keep pretending not to know.”
“Yes.”
“In that sense… Now I will go and have a meaningful time together.”
Homuryeon got up abruptly and tried to leave his office. However, he couldn’t do it because of the commander’s grip on his collar.
“Why are you doing this?”
“It will be difficult if you procrastinate and leave.”
“Did that happen?” He smiled awkwardly and tried to remove his collar from the governor’s hand. However, the Commander-in-Chief put all his inner strength in the hand holding the collar.
Then, outside the office, doormen with loads of papers started pouring in. Seeing this, Homuryeon-ju’s face turned pale. “Second, Commander. Why are you here?”
The commander-in-chief said calmly. “It is something that has been postponed without being dealt with. It must be done by today.”
Papers were piled up on his desk while the general was saying that. The scribes who piled up the documents each brought their own bookshelves and made a seat in the office of Homuryeon-ju.
“These are the people who will help Ryeonju.”
The man then looked blankly at the commander-in-chief and the civil servants in turn. “You think you’re going to monitor rather than help?”
“You misunderstood. I’m busy with public affairs.” The general bowed politely and left.
After that, Homuryeon-ju stood there for a while, blankly looking at the seat where the general had been.

In the morning, Byeok Tae-san, as usual, was served by the servants, washed, and ate. Then he instructed the training and left the Heukcheolbang.
Today he was going out on his own. He thought for a while whether to bring Ok Hwa, but eventually decided against it.
There was only one thing to do today. When Byeok Tae-san came out of the black iron room, one of Haomen also bowed his head. He was the person who would guide him today and was the liaison with Haomun at Uichang.
When Byeok Tae-san looked at him quietly, Hao Mun-do opened his mouth quickly.
“Currently, there are only three Jinbeop masters at the level that Confucius mentioned. Two of them had been living in Uichang for over ten years, and one came to Uichang three months ago.”
“Start with him.”
“Then, I shall lead the way.” Hao Mundo promptly guided them to Mt. Byeoktai.
Byeok Tae-san followed him slowly and muttered, “So, you want to stay alive…”
