‘Did you have enough mileage?’
I woke up as if I had to go to work but the alarm didn’t go off.
I desperately squeezed out all my remaining energy and channeled it into my whole body, putting off death.
[Amenity ‘safe injection’ applied… ]
Cheesy…
[‘Safe injection’ stops.]
The notification that was being output slowed down, and a message appeared saying that safety ejection had been stopped.
Having gained some time, I quickly checked the amount of remaining mileage.
[Holding mileage: 2200]
The remaining mileage is 2200 mileage.
In order to safely eject and unlock the travel destination, 1,000 mileage was required.
It wasn’t impossible to unlock, but it wasn’t a leisurely amount.
‘I raised my stats and saved a little, but it’s only enough for 2 coins to use for resurrection… ‘
Considering that it cost 9,000 miles to kill Tuma, it was definitely not a leisurely amount. It’s true that my level has improved since then, but it’s the same as Enma’s not taking acid poison. Like the Bingma, it could end surprisingly easily if Enma lets his guard down, but isn’t that just because you don’t know how the situation will unfold?
‘If it were me, I’d be more wary of monsters that come back to life with their hearts pierced.’
If you trust 2 coins and take your time, you could end up in trouble if you make a mistake.
And above all…
‘I have reached the pinnacle of perfection and even obtained the beginning of the flower world, but are you asking me to repeat the situation I faced when I faced Tuma before? That thing you make up for with mileage?’
When I came to my senses, my pride wouldn’t allow it.
A situation that broke my heart. It is true that the easy way is to quietly revive with mileage.
But if there really was no way, it wasn’t like that.
Grumpy~
I took out a healing rosary from my inventory and wrapped it around my hand.
Exciting… !
The heart torn to pieces by Enma’s strength was slowly regenerated. It wasn’t satisfactory speed, but it was noticeably faster compared to when I used it on other people. This is probably because it is directly influenced by the user’s will.
The body that had been immersed in the swamp of death slowly began to float upward.
But that wasn’t enough.
One more element was needed to ensure victory against Enma, who would be wary of the resurrected me.
It’s about reaching the level of perfection.
The clue to Hwa-gyeong had already been obtained. I thought it would be possible to create a stoppage match somehow.
The problem is that I don’t know how to form a mid-stop…
‘Originally, I was planning to go back to the Namgung family and try it slowly. ‘It rarely goes as planned.’
One idea immediately came to mind.
The idea is that if you use this ability to assist the function of the heart that is just regenerating, it will be no different from forming a middle or middle tank.
I decided, feeling my heart slowly regenerate.
I decided to use this ability to create a mid-game battle.

“… I missed it.”
Enma clicked his tongue as he watched the door that had opened in the air close.
He happened to see that Bingeumgok, which he visited for work, had been devastated. So he looked around and as soon as he found Minho, who he thought was an intruder, he stabbed him in the chest.
Originally, Enma and Bingma did not get along well. This was because, unlike the Ice Demon, who had a sinister side to him, Yeomma had a fiery personality just like the inner strength he possessed.
This was something that was also commonly applied to some extent to his subordinates. So, the relationship between Enma’s Annihilation Group and the demons of Ice Demon’s Ice Music Group was not very good.
Although it was a group gathered under one roof called the Heavenly Demon Church, it was originally a group of demons who learned martial arts in a rough and cruel way. In the case of major conflicts, I took a self-respecting attitude while paying attention to the Heavenly Demon, but it made no sense that minor problems would not arise as well.
The reason Yeomma visited Bingeumgok was to resolve problems between his subordinates that occurred at Okmungwan.
“… When I think about it, it’s not a bad situation. Although there was only one person, he killed the one who attacked Binggeumgok while the Bingma was away. I guess I should leave this as a debt to Bingma.”
Yeomma turned his back when he saw Minho lowering his head while muttering that. There was no value in watching the end of an extinguished ember.
Instead, he created a huge Sammae Evolution from his hand and threw it at Minho.
An expert in Yeolyang Qigong, he always enjoyed burning his opponents to death as a finishing touch.
However, contrary to Enma’s expectations, Minho did not burn up and disappear even though he was caught in the samadhi evolution. Of course, the outer clothing made of ordinary material burned, but the flames made of simple yang energy, not strong energy, could not burn his suit, let alone his body.
Rather, Minho was able to hide his recovery condition by being engulfed in flames.
While the healing rosary wrapped around his hand healed his heart, Minho did his best to form a medium-sized battle.
While learning martial arts, he desperately recalled the teachings he received from his teacher, Nam Gung-hyeon, and what he realized on his own.
‘When the will moves, the thoughts follow. What is the difference between natural ability and inner strength? Both are powers I possess. However, since one depends on physical strength and the other depends on the amount of energy contained in the danteon, are the fundamentals different? The two can replace each other to some extent. If the fundamentals are different, why is it possible to replace one another? In the first place, is it true that physical strength is what this ability consumes? The same goes for internal energy, if you consume too much, your body will get tired. However, internal energy is not necessarily treated as consuming physical strength. So, isn’t this ability no different from inner power? But there is a clear difference between the two. ‘Maybe there is a chance for me to reach Hwagyeong in that gap.’
When Minho reached the state of transcendence and achieved enlightenment in the world, he once asked Namgung-hyeon how he could reach the state of enlightenment. Even though enlightenment is different for each person, I was curious about the path that Namgung-hyeon took.
At that time, Namgoong Hyeon spoke to Minho.
“I have reached the state of harmony by achieving the unity of the essence spirit.”
“What is Jeonggishin?”
“Jeong is the basis of life. For a martial artist, a strong body that has been trained over a long period of time is exactly what it is. Qi is an energy that constantly circulates in the body and boosts strength and will, and God can be seen as mental power and soul.”
“It is the body, internal energy, and spirit.”
“When the three became balanced, I finally reached the realm of peace. To be precise, I would say that distinguishing between them has become meaningless.”
‘The union of the vital gods that the teacher spoke of. Wouldn’t it be possible to say that I have already achieved this by distributing abilities evenly?’
Minho’s abilities were evenly distributed through his tester status.
However, he has not yet reached the state of Flower Sutra. Unlike Namgoong Hyeon, it meant that there was something lacking.
Minho wanted to find the answer through deep exploration of his abilities.
This is because he has been using his supernatural ability to good effect, but has not thought deeply about its essence.
In the samadhi evolution of Enma that enveloped his body, he sank deeper into his mind to attain enlightenment.
‘This ability came about after I received the Telos ampoule. The body itself has changed to accommodate the use of this ability. It’s all thanks to that that I don’t get hurt by fire even if I don’t use my supernatural ability. Perhaps this ability is not flowing, but has become my body itself.’
Until now, Minho had used this ability thinking of it as energy. It’s like inner strength.
But the prerequisites may have been wrong.
From a newly realized perspective, this ability was Minho’s essence, a power engraved in his foundation.
‘ah.’
The moment he realized this, a flame with the force of a forest fire erupted from Minho’s whole body.
Kwaaaa!!!
‘The reason I used my special ability to fire and burn the sky was to put fuel that wasn’t suitable for the engine and force it to run. No, it’s not even fuel in the first place. It was like using martial arts while burning my body. So every time I used it, it put a strain on my body.’
Now, then, it was time to return the abilities that had been used indiscriminately to their proper place.
Grumble!
Minho’s supernatural ability began to burn his body. No, it had to be seen that the boundary between his body and his supernatural abilities was becoming blurred.
The moment he recognized this ability as essence, as Namgung-hyeon expressed it, his body became a burning torch.
When Minho first met Namgoonghyeon, Namgoonghyeon temporarily named Minho’s constitution Cheonyang Geumgangji. It was a constitution with a grand name for someone who simply had a strong body and plenty of energy.
But now, at this moment.
Minho, who had completely become a flame itself, had become something that was difficult to contain even with such a grand name.
Around that time, Enma also noticed something strange.
“What… ? Why the fire… !”
Minho, who was thought to be dead, was still standing on his feet. It didn’t stop at just standing. His body even absorbed Enma’s samadhi evolution and became a burning fire person.
It looked as if Enma’s original recluse, the Sun Palace, had achieved the ultimate state of pursuit, that is, becoming a Yeomshin (炎神).
“!”
Enma’s eyes shook violently.
Although Yeomma also reached the state of invulnerability in cold weather, he could not help but be influenced by the energy under the control of others.
It was a natural story.
Although it was not a very common state to achieve the Chinese and Western skills, if one had achieved it and was not influenced by the energy of others, the status of Yin Han Qigong and Yeoyang Qigong in the rivers and lakes would not have been as high as they are now.
However, Minho was not burned by Enma’s Samadhi Evolution. Rather, the samadhi evolution disappeared without a trace, as if it were fire itself. Just as pouring a bucket of seawater into a lake does not turn it into a sea.
In the first place, Minho’s body was never burned by Enma. It’s just that Enma’s strength penetrated through my chest ignorantly.
Hwareukㅡ
Enma’s eyes caught the flame burning in her pierced, now slowly healing heart. The flame that seemed to pulsate instead of the heart.
Enma felt it instinctively. That is the source of the unidentified intruder’s abilities.
It is the essence of fire, the essence of fire, that was sleeping in the heart, covered with fabric.
‘It must be destroyed…’ !’
Enma felt his instincts ringing a stronger alarm than ever before.
He reflexively prepared the fastest sword he could deploy.
Red fire magic wave. Red fire magic wave.
Quaaa!!
A force of flame mixed with demon energy flew towards Minho’s burning chest.
Enma’s attack flew with fierce momentum and hit its target.
Coo!
‘done!’
Enma cried out in joy.
Although I was nervous about the unidentified energy, it was clear that whatever was hit by his strong energy would have been destroyed.
But Enma raised a toast too soon.
Lee Neung, who had been in the process of changing for a while and was reorganizing Minho’s body into the flame itself, even swallowed up the energy of the flame. The greedily burning flame did not choose what to burn. Even Enma’s demonic energy mixed with the strong energy could not escape its range.
Rather, Minho’s unconsciousness responded to Yeomma’s will to attack him.
Kwaaa!!!
“Ugh!”
A huge shock wave occurred centered around Minho.
The impact was as if dozens of wall bombs had been gathered together and exploded all at once. Enma felt his internal organs being shaken by the sudden impact before he even had time to use his defense skills, and had no choice but to jump back.
Sigh! Quad dudddd…
Enma, who had barely managed to avoid being thrown into Bingyumgok’s hall by using Cheongeunchu, slowly raised his head.
The place where Minho was standing was filled with smoke. This was the result of all the snow piled up around the area sublimating due to the sudden heat and shock.
Enma looked beyond the smoke with a nervous face that did not match his violent nature.
“… … .”
Ssss…
The haze that filled the valley slowly dispersed toward the sky due to rising air currents caused by hot temperatures.
And after all the haze disappeared, Enma saw something there and opened his eyes wide. He muttered in a voice filled with awe without even realizing it.
“Woah, you bastard… !”
At the spot where Minho was standing, a giant with a fiery body, about a dozen inches tall, was looking down at him through the valley.
