◈ Atmosphere (3)
It was around the time when Muyul went tiger hunting with Hyegeol.
“Have you been there?”
Mugung was also exchanging greetings with Hyedam, his founder.
“yes. Sajo.”
He was a blunt and quiet person.
This time, I made the mistake of running away at night, so I couldn’t even imagine what kind of punishment I would receive.
However, Hyedam did not reprimand Mugung. But she wasn’t saying anything touching either.
“Would you like to come in?”
I just let Mugung into the room pretending like nothing happened, as if it happened every day.
Seeing Hyedam’s attitude, Mugung swallowed a lot of saliva, which was not appropriate for his size, and asked.
“… … Are you not asking about Hinayana’s sins?”
“Didn’t you already receive it from the Law School?”
The response was that since the punishment was imposed by the organization in charge of punishment, there was no need for him to take further action.
The corners of Mugung’s mouth slightly turned up at the thought that Hyedam’s attitude was somehow befitting of a royal scholar.
Hye-dam, who entered the room with Mugung, looked at Mugung for a moment and then asked.
“Did you gain anything from your trip to Murim?”
“I discovered the joy of helping others.”
“Thank goodness.”
Mugung, who had been pondering for a moment, was the first to open his mouth when he saw Sajo looking at him silently after saying just one word.
“Actually, that’s why I have a problem.”
“Tell me.”
Mugung, who received Hyedam’s permission, slowly told the story of what she had experienced during her trip to Murim. Also, the worries she felt during the process.
“In this way, while the shamans Cheongsu Dojang and Mugyeong choose their own paths to develop their martial arts based on their experiences, I felt like I was just following the same thing.”
In response to Mugung’s concerns, Hyedam nodded once and answered.
“Don’t worry. Continuing what has been done. That is enough for you.”
“… … ?”
When Mugung made an expression of not understanding, Hyedam explained, uncharacteristically, at a bit of length.
“The Tathagata Kidney you are learning is infinitely heavy. Therefore, the more you build it, the stronger it becomes. “It means that if you keep digging into this over and over again, without paying attention to other paths, that will be enough.”
Hyedam’s words were filled with pride in the martial arts he had learned.
“So don’t be impatient. “It’s slow, but we have to build it up slowly and steadily.”
“Thank you for your teachings. Sajo.”
It was truly heartwarming, and in some ways, Sajo and Sason were the most Shaolin-like.

While the children without children are in contact with their respective trends.
After finishing his conversation with Hyeon-gwang, Mu-jin headed towards the iron blocks to fulfill his promise.
‘It’s a complete transformation… … .’
Mujin, who was sitting in front of the iron block, thought over the term in his head.
Bone metamorphosis.
In literature and daily life, it is an expression used to positively describe a person who has suddenly changed.
However, in martial arts, it was used quite differently.
An expression that literally means a certain ‘state’ where bones and muscles are reversed and transformed into a complete body best suited for martial arts.
The story of the protagonist falling off a cliff after a risky battle, where he accidentally obtains an elixir, and using the enlightenment from the battle and the energy of the elixir to achieve a complete transformation, was a plot that appeared quite often.
‘The main character of Part 1 also returned to his school after achieving a transformation and became a Heavenly Demon.’
Looking at it that way, even though it is a novel by the same author, the main character of Part 1 and Do Wol-cheon, the main character of Part 2, seemed to take very different paths.
Based on his outstanding understanding, the Cheonma has reached a complete transformation in order to perfectly use various martial arts.
And Do Wol-cheon, who twisted his own body to perfect only one martial art with his lack of understanding.
So what about yourself?
Like Dowolcheon, without enlightenment, he was trying to twist his body to reach the level of transformation like that of the Heavenly Demon.
‘If you were the original monk, what path would you have taken?’
Such a question came to mind for a moment, but Mujin soon got out of his thoughts.
What path the original Mujin took was no longer known, and it was also a problem that even if he knew, he could not do anything about it.
In any case, it was impossible for him to achieve transformation through enlightenment.
“Whoa.”
Mujin caught his breath and focused only on the metal block in front of him and his own muscles.
The path he plans to take from now on, he only knows in his head. It was an area that could not actually be reached.
‘First, train your muscles to the limit.’
Mujin’s plan was quite simple.
The limit of strength that a human can reach.
In modern times, I intended to reach the realm of the monsters who won the competition called ‘World’s Strongest Man.’
However, among those who won the competition, none of them were good at martial arts.
This was because the muscles were so enlarged that they were excessive and interfered with daily life.
‘The question is to what extent Okgeumganggong can handle it.’
Developing enormous muscles that can reach the limit of human strength, while simultaneously compressing those muscles to the level of a martial arts athlete.
‘The total weight of the three winners of the recent competition was about 2,000 pounds (1,200 kg).’
At the same time as reaching that figure, maintain your body shape by training your jade-geumgang.
It may be easier said than done, but it was also an absurd goal. If anyone could achieve it, that record wouldn’t be the best in the world.
In order to be suitable for martial arts, he had to maintain his enormous strength and flexibility.

Additionally, humans could not survive below a certain level of body fat.
Not only did muscles need to be grown indiscriminately, but an appropriate level of fat had to be present as the muscles increased.
Even, if your strength exceeds a certain level, it can even destroy your bones.
‘In the meantime, I had to compress my muscles with the Jade Geumgang Ball. To maintain your body fat percentage, you need to build not only muscle but also fat.’
It was fortunate that Okgeumgang ball not only compresses muscles but also has the effect of repairing bones.
The only problem is that it is not known to what extent its effectiveness is demonstrated.
In the end, the process Mujin was about to carry out from now on was no different from conducting human experiments on his own body.
It is a challenge and human experiment that must encompass the countless kinematic knowledge that has been studied and acquired for ten years in modern times, and in addition, utilize the Jadegeumganggong learned in this world.
And for the start of that outrageous experiment.
“Huh!”
Mujin boldly began to lift the metal bar on which countless heavy plates were hanging.
* * *
Mujin’s ridiculous muscle overuse and crazy food consumption that makes him feel like he’s a glutton.
And after about 15 days of repeated recovery.
A guest came to Shaolin Temple.
“Long time no see. “Jegal Jinhee, my lord!”
“Hehehe. “It’s been a while.”
“long time no see. Monk Mujin. “Ambassador Hyeon-gwang.”
Mu-jin and Hyeon-gwang, who were taking a break after exercising, welcomed Jegal Jin-hee, and she responded with a faint smile.
“But you must be busy as head of the So family, so what are you doing all the way to Shaolin?”
“I came to keep my promise.”
“A promise?”
When Mu-jin asked again with a puzzled look on his face, Jegal Jin-hee looked behind him instead of answering right away.
At the same time, a whining noise was heard as if someone was exercising. And the sound slowly got closer to Hyeon-gwang’s place.
“Okay.”
One by one, warriors from the Zhuge family carrying heavy pieces of iron began to enter Hyeon-gwang’s residence.
“You promised to make heavy iron for Monk Mujin to use, right?”
“!!!”
Mujin’s eyes widened at her words.
“Are you saying you’re giving it all to me?”
The iron balls brought by the Zhuge Dynasty’s warriors seemed to be 1.5 times larger than those that Mujin had used so far.
So, aren’t those warriors of the Zhuge family coming whining? This is despite the fact that he even used his inner strength to bring it.
“yes. “Actually, I tried to bring it right away, but since they were pieces of iron, I needed permission from the head monk.”
“Whew. Lord Soga! “Do you mind if I leave it here?”
While Zhuge Jinhui was explaining to Mujin about the iron pieces, the Zhuge family’s warrior took a deep breath and asked.
“yes. “Please drop me off in the wide yard over there.”
When Zhuge Jinxi answered, they carefully placed the heavy piece of iron on the ground, fearing it might bend.
Cooung.
However, even though it was clearly put down carefully, the heavy noise gave away its weight.
The heavy sound that Zhuge Dynasty’s warriors made one after another as they laid down the iron bars sounded like music to Mujin.
‘I already had to create a new tool to go to the next step, but I never thought it would happen like this!’
It was Mujin that made me want to start exercising with those pieces of metal right away.
“You gave me such a big gift.”
“Nothing can compare to the help that Monk Mujin helped our family. And we plan to continue living in Shaolin for a while. As we promised before, we need to create a new formation around Shaolin.”
In fact, Zhuge Jinxi arrived in Shaolin about a year ago.
There was a bit of a delay because we had to meet with the room manager, Hyeoncheon, and talk about the Jinbeop and those metal pieces.
After hearing her explanation, Mujin, the class president who finally remembered that he had made such a promise, bowed.
“Thank you for thinking of our Shaolin. Amitabha Buddha.”
“This much is natural. Oh, and since we are staying in Shaolin while creating the Jinbeop, I have one request.”
“You can tell me anything!”
Mujin, who received a new exercise tool as a gift, said so with the intention of doing anything he could.
At Mujin’s words, Jegal Jinhee thought of a ‘private’ request for a moment.
‘Now is not the time!’
Thinking about her role as the head of a small household, she barely came to her senses and opened her mouth.
“While we are here, can you teach us a little about external training methods?”
“You mean external attack training?”
“yes. About the ‘iron quality’ that Monk Mujin always talked about. “Be as specific as possible about the exercise methods using those iron balls and the efficacy of each exercise method.”
This was the ‘public’ purpose of her coming here.
In fact, most of those who followed her and brought iron balls to give to Mujin were talented people from the Zhuge Dynasty who were selected to create new martial arts with her.
Here, along with Zhuge Jinhui, he brought those iron pieces all the way here to learn ironworking from Mujin.
Mujin, after thinking for a moment, answered her request.
“I can’t tell you every day, but I will let you know once in a while when I’m not exercising.”
I couldn’t exercise twelve times a day anyway, and I needed to rest while my muscles recovered.
Mujin thought that he could allocate that much time, as thanks to Zhuge Jinhui’s gift, efficient iron sharpening was possible with much heavier tools.
“thank you. Monk Mujin.”
“ha ha ha. “I am truly grateful.”
While Mujin and Zhuge Jinhui were greeting each other with a bow and a class leader, one of Shaolin’s great disciples came to Hyeon-gwang’s residence.
“I meet the Four White Birds of Hyeongwang.”
“Hehehe. okay. “What happened?”
“Monk Bangjang called Mujin.”
“You mean me?”
Mu-jin, who tilted his head for a moment at the words of this great disciple, said hello to Hyeon-gwang and Jegal Jin-hee and left Hyeon-gwang’s residence.
Heading to the director’s room, Mujin asked disciple Lee, but he also did not know the reason.
“Is there some problem?”
“I didn’t hear any specific reason either.”
In the end, Mujin arrived at the room manager’s room with only growing doubts.
And when he entered the room, Hyuncheon, the room manager, was waiting for him alone.
“Three great disciples Mujin. “I’m meeting Monk Bangjang.”
“Hehehe. “Sit comfortably.”
As Mujin sat down, Hyeoncheon opened his mouth.
“Did you have a good conversation with the owner of the small household of the Zhuge family?”
“yes. “I heard that they decided to set up a military camp.”
“Hehehe. That’s right. Thanks to you, the alliance with Zhuge Segal seems to be maintaining smoothly.”
Hyuncheon then spoke and briefly told Mujin what had happened.
The period when Mujin was imprisoned in Chamhoe-dong and the period when he was concentrating on training his muscles.
The alliance centered on Shaolin was consolidating its system.
Let’s take a moment to continue the story about what kind of treaties were exchanged with the Cheonryu Sangdan, the shamans, the Sichuan Dang Family, the Zhuge Sega Family, and the Jongnam Sect, and what kind of battle of wits they are waging with the Sapa and the anti-Shaolin Alliance.
“I realized this again while dealing with this matter. “What great things you have accomplished so far.”
Hyeoncheon immediately offered words of praise to Mujin. Naturally, Mujin doubted the intention.
‘It was only a month ago that I was thrown into the chamhoe-dong, but you’re suddenly praising me?’
But is it because he can’t feel Mujin’s suspicious eyes, or is he trying to ignore them? Ambassador Hyeoncheon continued speaking.
“So, Mujin is thinking of entrusting you with the position of great disciple of Mujabae.”
“You mean the great disciple of Mujabae?”
“It is true. And later, when Mujabae became the center of Shaolin. The great disciple will take the position of head of the room.”
“So, are you telling me to become a great disciple of Mujabae and later become the head of Shaolin?”
In response to Mujin’s question, Hyeoncheon smiled softly and shook his head.
Mujin thought as he looked at Hyeoncheon’s kind face.
‘why me?’
That annoying thing?
