Bee capillaris.

Literally translated, it means shaving off the fur and washing the bone marrow.

Even if you just listen to it, isn’t it a word that makes you feel like your body will become clean?

In fact, that was the purpose of the bee taxation.

Cleansing the body once with the internal energy of a master master to remove turbid energy from the energy and blood and to make the body suitable for practicing martial arts.

It was not for nothing that prestigious powers made their disciples or children to be bees.

“Are there any inconvenient places?”

“Yes, Master.”

I was currently lying on an unusually shaped bed with a finger-deep depression in the top, wearing only underwear.

I felt like I was lying in a bathtub with my chin very low due to the water being filled so quickly.

The water had a faint grassy smell, as if some kind of herb had been added to it.

Namgung-hyeon brought the wooden box that had been left on the nightstand.

It was the same box that contained the Byeokundan that the head of the family had given.

Rattlingㅡ

“Oh…”

“Hehe… I guess it’s fascinating.”

“It’s like a jewel.”

When I heard that it was a herbal medicine, I imagined it to be like Woohwang Cheongsimhwan that I had seen in real life, but it was completely different from what I expected.

A gem that transmits blue light translucently and has a cloud-like pattern drawn on it.

Because of how amazing it was, I thought it was a waste to eat it.

Namgoonghyeon put it in my mouth.

“Swallow when you’re ready.”

Nod-

I felt a refreshing sensation in my mouth, as if I had mint in my mouth.

I was worried that if I waited too long, it might just melt away, so I swallowed the Byeokundan right away.

Gulp~

I could vividly feel the elixir flowing down my throat, as if I had drunk strong alcohol.

It felt cool when I put it in my mouth, but when I put it in my stomach, it felt hotter.

“Let’s begin. Don’t open your mouth.”

Namgoonghyeon said that and started tapping my body with his fingers.

Bub bub bub!

“……!”

“Since you have not yet learned the Mind Method, you must dissolve the elixir and prevent the energy from escaping.”

Are you using your inner energy?

Even though I only pricked it with my finger and didn’t use any special tools, the pierced area still felt a tingling pain.

I feel like I am evenly pampered from head to toe.

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this kind of pain since I increased my abilities.

‘You’re doing it right, right?’

It seemed like what Namgung-Hyeon was doing was a technique commonly referred to in martial arts called Chugunggwahyeol (推宮過穴).

I could feel the heat coming from the lump in my stomach slowly spreading throughout my body.

“I’m going to turn you over for a moment, so hold your breath.”

Hmm~

After hearing that, I took a deep breath through my nose.

As soon as he did that, Namgoonghyeon lightly lifted my body and turned me over.

Bub bub bub!

‘town…!’

I stuck my nose into the lapping water and barely held my breath that threatened to burst out every time my back was tapped.

After a few seconds that felt like minutes, my body turned over again and I was able to lie down straight on the bed.

“All preparations have been completed.”

He said as he placed his hand on the lower abdomen, lower abdomen.

“From now on, I will put my energy into your body and let the energy of Byeokundan wash away your energy and blood.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a hot energy came through Namgoonghyeon’s hand and into his body.

The energy that occupied the lower part of the body began to attract the heat of the Byeokundaan that had spread throughout the body like a magnet.

Puzzle~

I gritted my teeth.

A strange sensation, as if there was a hole in my stomach.

Because of my overly concentrated energy, I even thought that if I made a mistake, I would be ejected like this.

But even then, my body couldn’t move.

It looks like Namgoong Hyeon prepared really thoroughly while interrogating him.

The energy gathered in the Danjeon slowly began to move.

Hot lava passes through a blood path whose name I don’t yet know and rises up my body.

The energy could flow slowly or suddenly speed up, and sometimes hover around a nearby acupuncture point and then move rapidly to a distant acupuncture point.

It felt like unlocking a smartphone’s lock pattern based on all the acupuncture points in the human body.

‘Keuuu…!

Of course, the process was a time of perseverance that felt like being beaten with a heated iron, not with fingers.

While enduring the pain, my energy returned to the lower level before I knew it.

The energy that returned after swirling through my body did not feel as painful as before, as if my stomach had been pierced.

I only felt a very unfamiliar sense of security.

‘Is this a skill?’

Namgoonghyun wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It was not an easy process even for an expert like him.

“Whew… My muscles and bones are so strong that I lifted my arms more than I expected. Now it’s all over. I’ll relieve you of your blood pressure.”

Tuk! Tuk!

With a few gestures from his hand, my frozen body relaxed.

“What the hell… big…!”

As soon as I opened my mouth, a foul smell entered my nose.

The clear water, which had a faint herbal scent that filled the bed, had become dirty.

“There was so much piled up that it looked like it was a pile. Still, my energy and blood were as strong as my muscles, so I was able to finish well.”

“……I will wash first.”

“Then, in the meantime, I will bring the martial arts stipend for you.”

My skin felt unpleasantly sticky and there was a foul odor that made me frown.

I quickly went to the bathroom and rinsed my body like I was doing laundry.

By using this ability to set my body on fire and repeatedly wiping it off with water, I was able to quickly get rid of the smell.

When I returned to the room, Namgoonghyeon was gone.

While cleaning up, I checked my abilities.

‘I definitely feel a little lighter.’

[Name: Lee Min-ho]

[Abilities]

-Strength: 14

-Dexterity: 7

-Stamina: 15

-Intellect: 7

Sure enough, his abilities had increased.

In addition, agility and intelligence, which had not been increased for a while, increased by 2, and physical strength also increased by 1.

This resulted in saving as much as 3,600 mileage in one bee wash.

‘Wow… it’s worth the pain.’

While receiving the bee-mose wash, it hurt more than when my abilities were increased by more than twice at once, but seeing the increased abilities made me want to receive it one more time.

Of course, you cannot receive more, and it will have no effect once you have already received it.

Just as I was about to close the menu.

‘What is this?’

I saw something strange among the souvenir items.

[souvenir]

-[Extrasensory perception – high-speed thinking]

-[Telos – Ignis]

-[Martial Arts – Changgung Great Extension Attack]

‘……!’

Surprisingly, the Changgung Daeyeonsin technique that Namgung-hyeon learned was added to the souvenir.

‘How did this get registered as a souvenir?’

I thought about it, but I couldn’t figure out the exact reason.

I could only guess that the path through which the inner energy flowed while performing the beolmo wash was the path of Changgung Daeyeonsingong’s luck energy, or that part of Namgunghyeon’s inner energy was mixed with the energy of Byeokundan into the Hadanjeon.

Maybe it’s both.

Whatever the reason, it was a huge benefit for me.

For the time being, I tried to learn the mental techniques taught by Namgunghyeon, but now there was no need to do so.

The ultimate level of mind training learned by the elder of the Namgung family came into my hands.

‘This is the fate!’

I sat down and concentrated my mind.

I was planning to check the Changgung Daeyeonsingong before Namgunghyeon came back.

Just like when I gained superpowers and superpowers, the method of performing the Changgung Daeseonseonggong instinctively came to my mind.

flinch!

The inner energy contained in the lower chamber responded to my will and began to move slowly.

My energy flowed along the feeling of the acupoint engraved like a fire seal.

As my inner energy circulated, the throbbing sensation in my body gradually subsided.

In my inhaled breath, I could feel a faint presence of energy that I had not felt before.

The external energy that entered the body in this way was slowly absorbed by my internal energy, which circulated according to the fortune-telling technique of the Changgung Daeyeonsingong technique.

Finally, Iljucheon (一周天) ended by pushing all the internal energy back into the bottom area.

After completing a light mental test, I took a deep breath and opened my eyes.

“Phew……”

Although I had luck for a very short period of time, my condition, which had deteriorated slightly due to receiving the bee treatment, had recovered a bit.

‘Is this why the martial people eat fortune-telling?’

At that time, I felt someone outside the door, so I got up.

Drurrr

“You’ve finished organizing everything. Is your body okay?”

“Don’t you know how strong my body is?”

Namgoonghyeon took out an old booklet from his pocket and nodded.

“It’s definitely solid. After all, it would be a waste of talent to teach you general external qigong.”

He said that and handed me a booklet.

The cover of the booklet handed to me had five letters engraved in large letters.

“This is…”

Cheongungbulbyukgong (天宮不䦼功).

“It is a maternal Qigong practiced by Namgung’s ancestors in the long past, of which there are no records.”

I asked back without knowing what the strange explanation was.

“Can I learn this?”

“It may be an inappropriate thing to say from the perspective of a teacher who recommended Oegong, but in fact, Oegong is a martial art that deviates from the current martial arts trend.”

At the same time, he stretched out his hand and fired a strike into the air.

Tooung!

The air inside the room vibrated with a heavy sound.

“This is because if you practice internal Qigong, you can raise your level relatively safely, but its power is no less than that of external Qigong. But…”

“But what is it?”

“Your body shows a level of strength similar to that of an ordinary person who has learned external exercises. If you learn high-level external skills, aren’t you curious about how strong the human body can become?”

After saying that, Namgoonghyeon opened the booklet.

“This martial skill has been forgotten in the family for a long time. I also found this book for you after searching through the military library for a long time. Therefore, no one will be held accountable for this. It is truly a martial art prepared at Namgung for you.”

I stroked the old bookshelf with a hand filled with anticipation.

Due to the nature of Tuseonhyeophaengnok’s work, there was a high possibility that these old martial arts or elixirs would be as effective as expected.

As for inner gongsimbeop, he acquired the Changgung Daeyeonsingong technique taught by his elder Namgung Hyeon, and his maternal family learned the high-level martial arts learned by Namgung’s ancestors.

“What is the meaning of this martial arts?”

Namgoonghyun answered the question with a trembling voice.

“It is a martial art aimed at an earth that will not be divided even if the heavens end.”

It was a meaning that was truly arrogant, as it was learned in the Namgung family, which had the sky as its image.

So I liked it more.

“Let’s start training quickly, Master!”

Fortunately or unfortunately, I did not start training that day.

This is because special preparation was required to practice Cheongung Bulbyukgong.

A few days later, I looked down at the lake near Namgung House and muttered to myself.

“Is this correct…?”

Hwiiingㅡ

This place, where the sharp wind blew, was on a cliff overlooking a lake.

The height appears to be at least 30 meters.

And now I have to jump into the lake I can see far away.

And that too, with the body wide open and the contact area maximized.

‘Isn’t this just a suicide method, not a training method?’

“Now, hurry and jump.”

“……”

Namgoonghyun was watching me from behind, as if the so-called teacher was going to push me.

‘Oh, I don’t know. If anything goes wrong, just be ejected safely and that’s it.’

I stopped thinking and threw myself into the air.
