Chapter Index

    Kugugugugugung…

    The heavy iron door opened left and right, making a loud friction sound. The iron door was so thick and large that it almost looked like a wall was opening rather than a door.

    In addition, the hinges of the door were stiff, as if it had not been opened often, and there was no gap between the door and the floor to the extent that not even a ray of air could enter. It was structured so that if a thief entered and locked the door, he would suffocate to death.

    This door seemed to act as a security device in itself. Although it may seem at first glance, it is a security device that costs a considerable amount of money.

    It was like that. The identity of the door I was looking at was the door to Danrisega’s treasure trove.

    Dan Qi-ryung, who was standing side by side with me and watching the door open, said.

    “Yeomnaturyong small cooperative. This is our Danrisega’s treasure trove. I will guide you from the side, so take your time and look around before making a decision.”

    “Okay.”

    After the battle, I asked Dan Qi-ryung to speak to me at ease. No matter how much he saw me as more than just a latter-day index, Dan Qi-ryung was the uncle of Dan Li-sam, the head of Soga.

    Until now, I didn’t pay much attention to it because it was important to hit Punglanghoe quickly, but the fact that the person who was said to be the younger brother of the current family head kept using Haoche against me was also a problem.

    I followed Dan Qi-ryung, who was leading the way, and looked around.

    ‘There was no warehouse like this even in the Namgung family. Is this because of the difference in the overall level of warriors and regional control?’

    In the area where the Namgung family was located, there were no people with swollen livers who would secretly target their warehouse. Even if someone sneaked in, it was obvious that they would be caught and killed by the family’s warriors before they could reach the warehouse.

    However, Bongyang, where Danlisega is located, was often seen by Sapa warriors due to the characteristics of operating a black city. As such, public security was not as good as that of the Namgung family. So, I wondered if there was no choice but to create such a grandiose security device.

    Gold and silver treasures were piled up at the entrance of the warehouse. There were chests full of various statues and accessories made of silver and gold, as well as precious jade. Just by looking at it, it was clear that Danrisega’s wealth was not small at all.

    ‘I guess the management of the black eyes is useful.’

    However, since neither Dan Qi-ryung nor I were interested in gold and silver treasures, we quickly passed by that place. Originally, the deeper you went into this treasure trove, the more valuable items there were.

    No matter how precious gold and silver treasures were, they were not as important as Buddhist tools and elixirs to the martial people.

    This is because the truly precious Buddhist tools and elixirs could not be obtained by paying all the gold and silver treasures here. Those things could only be obtained with a certain level of connection.

    To put it bluntly, the reason I have now entered Danrisega’s treasure trove is because I arrived at it by chance.

    Dan Qi-ryung finally arrived in front of another door in the warehouse and spoke.

    “It’s real from here.”

    Sigh…

    A door that opens lightly, unlike before. However, through my energy sense, I felt that some organ jinsik was installed there.

    I could see that the reason Dan Qi-ryung was my guide was not only to explain the items in the warehouse, but also to disarm traps guarding important areas.

    When the door opened, the smell of medicinal herbs irritated my nose, as if I had returned to the Namgung family’s medicine hall. It was a smell that reminded me of the time I received the elixir from Yakseon and drank it.

    What Dan Qiryung opened was a door leading to a room full of elixirs.

    He led me and explained.

    “Look at that. That’s a rejuvenation pill made from the serum of Perennial Diarrhea. They say that once you take it, your gray hair will turn black and wrinkles will smooth out. Actually, it doesn’t really have the same effect as anti-romantic medicine, but it’s not an elixir that can be easily obtained.”

    “It’s a precious elixir. But I don’t think I need it yet. It would be difficult to get any younger here.”

    Dan Qi-ryung smiled at my joke and continued his explanation.

    “This next to it is the essence of Cheonrangcho (天狼草). If you put just one drop in your mouth, you won’t feel hungry even if you starve for several days. That’s black wheat. It is an elixir containing the energy of extreme yang made by purifying black honey. However, it is said that the medicinal properties contained in it are so strong that it can be life-threatening for people who do not have a tolerance for poison if they consume it, and even for people who have a tolerance for poison, Dalpo must feel like they are drunk.”

    There were literally a lot of interesting elixirs.

    However, I didn’t see anything that really caught my interest. The characteristics of each of the elixirs were impressive, but most of them had similar or worse energy than the Cheongundaan I first tasted at Namgung House.

    In addition, my energy was growing little by little even without taking the elixir, so I was not greedy unless it was a truly unrivaled elixir.

    Dan Qi-ryung noticed my expression and expressed his admiration.

    “Huh… It looks like Yeomra Fighting Dragon Sohyeop doesn’t want the elixir at all. My mental training is not normal.”

    “What is important is not the elixir but a deep understanding of martial arts.”

    Of course it was a lie.

    I too would always welcome elixirs. However, I was saying this because the elixirs in Danlisega’s warehouse were so-so, so I couldn’t say that I was hesitant about choosing one.

    Still, Dan Qi-ryung nodded as if he liked the answer.

    “Young warriors these days tend to think that they can become world-class experts if they just take the elixir. But if that were true, the world would be full of tax-saving experts. The important thing, as Yeomnaturyong Sohyeop said, is to deeply understand martial arts… As expected, Yeomnaturyong Sohyeop is different. In that case, after checking the elixir to this extent, let’s go see the dharma ball.”

    We left the room where the elixir was and stood in front of another door.

    Dan Qi-ryung, who had also lifted the engine restraint, opened the door and said.

    “A variety of Buddhist instruments and weapons are stored here. This is called the king’s wheel.”

    He opened the box next to him and took out a shiny tablet.

    “It is Garakji, but why is it called Ryun?”

    “Because it’s not an ordinary ring.”

    When Dan Qi-ryung twisted the Jihwan between his thumb and index finger, a sharp blade protruded from the shiny Jihwan. The razor-blue blade was like a sign that if you touched it incorrectly, your finger would be cut off.

    “If thrown by someone who has properly learned martial arts, it is a wheel that can penetrate even hard rocks.”

    “… … .”

    “That thing is called the Wind Demon Beast. When you throw it, it flies like the wind and sticks to the desired target. Ah, this is called Gyoryongsak (蛟龍索), and if you attach it to a Seungpyo or meteor pendulum, there is nothing like it. It is strong and will never break even when used when climbing a cliff or tying up a criminal.”

    Due to the nature of Danrisega’s martial arts, there were many types of memorization.

    But it wasn’t something I particularly wanted. It was easier to use Earthwind with quickly replenishing energy rather than memorizing it, and it was more suited to my inclination to pull out a gun and shoot.

    Memorization has sensibility, but it doesn’t really suit me.

    There were various other Buddhist instruments and weapons, but I couldn’t find anything I liked.

    Still, I couldn’t say that I didn’t like something because I had the dignity of Dan Lisega who opened a treasure trove with a big heart.

    “I never imagined that Danrisega’s treasure trove would contain such amazing things.”

    “These are treasures that our family has collected over a long period of time. But what is more important than these is the loyalty and loyalty of the warriors of the generation that made the family grow this much.”

    Dan Qilong nodded with a proud face.

    Anyway, I also took the Jegeum Jaryeong tablet that Hyeolrangmunju had as my trophy. Still, since I was managing my dark vision, I could see things that looked good, but there was nothing that bothered me.

    ‘Write… Should I just pick a suitable elixir?’

    As I was shaking my head thinking that, there was one thing that caught my eye.

    It appeared to be a deep, dark navy blue outfit, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to emit a subtle glow of its own. It was a mysterious fabric with alternating blue and black colors.

    I hadn’t seen it because I was looking at the weapons and tools.

    ‘This?’

    I lifted it up in the corner.

    Slurp~

    When I touched it with my hand, it felt smooth and heavy like silk.

    “What is this?”

    “Blue dragon robe? that… ”

    Unlike before, Dan Ki-ryung seems to be hesitating.

    I intuitively sensed that there was something about these clothes.

    ‘Do you feel it?’

    “What on earth is this?”

    When asked again, Dan Qi-ryung sighed slightly and answered.

    “It is a reward woven with the threads of a thousand sleeps. It is a very sturdy Buddhist ball that has the effect of helping the wearer develop and develop internal energy. Even though Yeomra Fighting Dragon Sohyeop said that he trained external attack, if he has a treasure like this, he will be able to prevent it without a single wound even if something like the blood-and-eye attack that happened before happens again.”

    “Cheonsamsa! Are you saying it’s such a valuable item?”

    Cheonjamsa (天蠶絲) refers to the silk thread spun from Cheonjam (天蠶), a silkworm that is almost like a spiritual creature. In the original work, Baek Geon obtained similar items, which were a sword and gloves that prevented poison.

    ‘So does this mean that this clothing can block strength to some extent?’

    Listening to Dan Qi-ryung’s words, it seemed like that. Even if his explanation was a bit exaggerated, I thought it would be durable enough to at least block black energy.

    “But it looks like there’s something you don’t like about this outfit.”
