Side Story Episode 99. Perspective on magic (7)
Even without Yang Baek-ho, each yaksha continued to receive necessary training.
Rather, he trained harder than anyone else even without orders from each state. This was because one real fight gave them both great confidence and an unknown sense of loss.
Not letting your comrades die means saving your own life. Conversely, if I don’t die, my comrades can also be saved.
Moreover, once they had experienced a real battle, they were convinced of how excellent the formation they had learned was. Although it was easier to understand than what was learned in other units, its power in actual combat was no less than that of any other formation method.
After the training was over, we had a meal and went into our own individual training.
The atmosphere of the Yaksas devoted to training was a big change in itself and determined the atmosphere of the entire headquarters. Nowadays, there is not a single person who barely misses a day at Yaksasaryeong.
Since you try to improve on your own without orders or advice, your superiors also work harder.
In this way, in a short period of time, Yasha Command was transforming into a much more organized unit than before.
* * *
After completing all training, Lee Cheon-sang, who rejected the unit members’ offer to have a drink for the first time in a long time, came into the residence again today to check his martial arts skills.
It was good to create a new magic craft, but it was also important to increase one’s own strength. In the first place, you must properly examine your martial arts skills to be able to create other martial arts skills.
After a bout of luck, Lee Cheon-sang looked around to Geumgang Yacha Magick and opened his eyes.
The moon outside the window was particularly bright. It was just before midnight.
Lee Cheon-sang went to the table and took out several books. The phrases written on paper were compiled into a book.
‘This part is at stake.’
Lee Cheon-sang looked at the second half of the magic book written roughly called Blood and Demonic Gong (血禍魔功).
Setting up the framework for the Blood Demonic Artillery was easier than I thought. The reason is that the basic Hyeolgangsu itself was a magical attack with exceptional destructive power. The problem is that touching the upper part too harshly causes the learner to lose his or her senses and even induce mania.
‘Unstable foundations can be easily controlled with a Jinma ball. The problem is the upper and middle battles.’
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes deepened.
‘The reason why the power of Hyeolgangsu is greater than that of any other magic attack is because it touches the top level dangerously. ‘Because the power of Sangdanjeon is forcibly used regardless of whether one has the ability to control it or not.’
In other words, it means that all the power that a person has or does not have has been extracted and only the power has been used.
People who did not have upper-end defense in the first place will lose their sense of humor as soon as they learn it, and even masters with high-end defense will gradually start to become maniacal if they use it often.
‘It’s right here. ‘It’s strange here.’
The mania people were talking about literally meant losing one’s reason and going crazy.
To put it simply, people who react without common sense are called crazy. There are people who are called crazy even though they clearly recognize the people around them, and there are also times when people who forget what they heard a little while ago and live in their own world are called crazy.
In any case, to ordinary people, it can be defined as mania.
‘If you put it that way, I too am close to a madman.’
Lee Cheon-sang was a type that was far removed from common sense.
It was difficult to call him a crazy person, but since he lives in a world far removed from people’s common sense, he could also be called a crazy person.
‘The problem is that mania is not just a problem of the upper class.’
If there is a problem in the top battle, you will become a person in trouble or lose your life.
Symptoms vary depending on the severity of the problem. However, in normal cases, when one loses reason, he or she acts according to his or her emotions, so it cannot be said that Jung and Jungjeon are not involved.
‘Ordinary people see the world through their brains. In other words, you can control your emotions and even your body with your brain. Mania is not like that. When the controlled part is broken, emotions start to run wild.’
Human reason and emotions are concepts so complex that they cannot be defined as just this.
What and how intervene in human behavior is also an ambiguous issue. That is why it is difficult to treat mania.
‘… … ?’
For a moment, Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes sparkled.
‘It’s difficult to treat… … .’
Yes. Treating mania is difficult.
But causing mania is tens of thousands of times easier than treating it.
‘Mania can occur due to an extreme emotional blow or a problem with the battle itself.’
Lee Cheon-sang quickly looked again at the Blood Demonic Art’s features.
After reading the magic book several times, he looked at the level of Hyeolgangsu again.
After a while.
“I see.”
Finally, Lee Cheon-sang was able to realize.
“Hyeolgangsu adds power by touching the upper part for extreme destructive power. “As a result, you suffer from mania, but it is the middle and middle battles, not the top battles, that really take the hit.”
Yes.
If the Blood Beast God Demon’s upper level battle had been ruined, he would have lost his grudge in the first place.
If the upper part of the body had been severely crushed, it would have died, and even if it had been worse, it would have been difficult to move, such as becoming disabled or having problems with the five senses.
There are problems, but the main area that suffers damage is the middle section, not the upper section.
In other words, instead of paying attention to the Blood Beast God Demon’s madman-like behavior and irrational behavior, they should have paid attention to the fact that they completely wiped out not a single blade of grass or a dog from a single sect.
No matter how deep the resentment is, it is not easy to show such extreme anger. It is said that magic is about tapping the middle and middle walls to gain power through strong emotional stimulation, but it was difficult to find extreme examples like Hyeolgangsu.
In other words, Hyeolgangsu should be seen as breaking down a person’s emotional system or sharply amplifying one emotion. That was the essential problem of blood precipitation.
‘They say it touches the top, but if you know it, it’s not that dangerous. It is certainly not ordinary, but the part that touches the upper part of the story matches the part that corresponds to the middle part of the story.’
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes were focused on the beginning of Blood Fire Demonic Art.
‘Right. From the moment you open the magic attack, you stimulate the spirit of life and tie down the enemy with maximum lethality… … The problem starts here. It wasn’t supposed to be like this.’
Lee Cheon-sang took out a new book with nothing written in it and started writing again from the beginning.
Of course, the first part was a complete revision of what I had previously written.
‘You can touch the upper part. However, this line that corresponds to the middle and middle battles must be cut.’
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes sparkled.
‘The power is falling. However, with stable output and sharp momentum, you can use the technique of striking the enemy’s mind and body.’
You should not regret the loss of power. Rather, you need to reduce its power somewhat to create strengths in other areas.
Magicians who focus endlessly on power will inevitably run into problems. When fighting right away, a fighting method that focuses only on attack may seem rough at first glance, but since problems with defense become more prominent, a single counterattack can cost your life.
Hyeolgangsu was such a martial artist. Many great masters did not jump in and create a half-made magic attack by disassembling complete martial arts, but by drawing on crude techniques that they had seen somewhere else and only making the attack power stronger.
A master who had reached a certain level created it by mobilizing everything he knew, but in the end, the reality of Hyeolgangsu was an imperfect magic technique created by only pursuing the power in front of him due to the limitations of learning.
‘then.’

It is not a martial art made with basic magical skills.
The Blood Flower Magic Gong is made to bring the imperfections of the Blood River to perfection. Rather than creating a new martial art, it suggests the path that Hyeolgangsu should take.
It’s completely different from Pocheon’s Magic Gong. So, although Pocheon’s completeness did not reach even half, the Blood Fire Demonic Art was almost completely completed.
‘If only I could remove the joints connecting these lines and separate them stably… … .’
Lee Cheon-sang used his brush without hesitation.
After a while.
“… … That’s it.”
Lee Cheon-sang covered the magic book of the blood fire magic craft.
“It’s finished.”
I completed a magic book for the first time.
Although it was not a completely new magic craft, it was meaningful enough. This is because the process of disassembling and combining structures was itself another learning experience.
Lee Cheon-sang felt an unknown tickling sensation in his chest.
I don’t know what it was, but something not bad made my heart rate rise.
People say it is a feeling of pride or reward. Lee Cheon-sang also knows those words, but since he has never felt them himself, he cannot know his own condition.
In fact, there was no need to know.
Just feel it.
He stood up and looked out the window, covering the level of the Blood Demonic Artillery.
“… … .”
The moment I completed one magic attack, someone made an appearance as if they had been waiting.
Rather than a presence, it was a deliberate effort. That very familiar momentum suddenly brought out a feeling that only Lee Cheon-sang was aware of.
A small but clearly felt emotion.
It was just a pleasure.
* * *
Doheon was amazed when he saw Lee Cheon-sang inside the commander’s temple.
“Unbelievable… … .”
“It’s been a while.”
“Are you really the Lee Cheon-sang I know?”
“exactly.”
Surprised, Doheon opened his mouth like a carp.
Lee Cheon-sang looked at Yang Baek-ho. Yang Baek-ho shrugged his shoulders.
“I heard that you are close to Tao Daju. “He said he wanted to meet me, so he came at this time to avoid people’s eyes as much as possible.”
“okay.”
Lee Cheon-sang looked at Do-heon again.
Doheon let out a laugh.
“I heard that you became a superior immediately below Lord Yang. but… … “I never imagined that I would become this strong.”
“It’s still far away.”
“Yeah, it was far. Still, it’s really amazing. It’s much stronger than I vaguely heard. “When I think about the first time I met you, it was like heaven.”
If it was short, it was short; if it was long, it was a long time.
However, considering the time it takes for one person to reach the point where he or she can be called a peak martial arts expert, it could be said that the time was too short.
Lee Cheon-sang grew to a frightening extent in that short period of time. Although there were some high-class magical arts from the New Church, some commands, and many actual battles, even taking that into account, it was an achievement too quickly.
Even if it was the Heavenly Demon God Order and not the Command Order, and even if the martial arts it learned was not Geumgang Yacha but the legendary Cheonma Jihak, would it be possible to become strong so quickly?
Doheon shook his head.
“I knew it was a monster, but… … .”
Doheon was so shocked that he couldn’t come to his senses.
Yang Baek-ho, fully understanding him, pointed to the seat with his hand.
“Don’t just stand like that, sit down first.”
After a while, three people sat down across a table.
Doheon asked with a smile.
“How have you been?”
“exactly.”
“Yeah, it looks that way.”
It was a huge achievement, but I felt a different sense of composure than before.
Doheon liked it even more. This was because Lee Cheon-sang seemed to be gradually becoming more human.
“But what is going on here at this hour? “I don’t think you came just to see me.”
“Hey, your harsh tone is still the same. “Well, I’m glad to see you now, even with that tone of voice.”
“exactly?”
Doheon looked at Yang Baekho.
Yang Baek-ho nodded. He meant that there was no need to repeat it.
Do-heon’s gaze turned to Lee Cheon-sang again.
“I’d like to have a drink, but first I want to ask you something.”
“What is it?”
“Have you mastered the Blood River?”
