Chapter 23. Fix the Dantian and Send Hong Kong
##
The Murim world is a world of power.
Survival of the fittest.
The strong survive, and the weak die.
In the end, to survive, you either avoid the strong or become strong yourself.
The methods to approach this thing called 'strength' differ from person to person, and their talents also differ.
But the starting line is the same for everyone.
Internal energy.
Learning martial arts is important, but without internal energy, martial arts are just empty shells.
No matter how excellent the martial art, it cannot be operated without internal energy.
Ultimately, all roots begin with internal energy.
And in the human body, there exists an organ that can store internal energy.
People call this the dantian.
Those who train in martial arts usually build up internal energy in their dantian through mental cultivation methods.
If the dantian grows larger, you can store more internal energy, and the power of your martial arts increases.
In the end, the dantian is a vessel that holds internal energy.
Humans have a total of three such vessels.
Lower dantian, middle dantian, upper dantian.
The beginning starts with the lower dantian.
The structure is such that when the vessel is fully filled, you move upward.
But what if the first vessel, the lower dantian, is cracked?
Then it cannot hold internal energy.
It will leak out immediately.
Without internal energy?
As I said at the beginning, martial arts alone are just empty shells.
That's how Ja-ung-cheon was until now.
Tirseuna also said this body could not become strong.
Because the vessel was broken.
Because it couldn't hold internal energy.
Because the medicine of this place couldn't fix it, that was the conclusion.
But now it can be fixed.
As long as I have the power of the saintess who came from another world, I can definitely fix it!
Then I can also become strong!!
When I was feeling good since morning and dancing with joy, the Left Dharma Protector entered.
"I called but you didn't answer... I'm sorry."
"Hmm hmm, no. Well then, let's begin our schedule for the Day of Judgment today as well."
The Left Dharma Protector tilted her head for a moment, then bowed.
Today's schedule was the same as usual.
The only difference was that during the morning sermon, I introduced the saintess Bichi to the other followers.
Naturally, using the script Tirseuna had prepared, I explained for a full 20 minutes the very simple content that the saintess was sent by Raxia-nim in preparation for the Day of Judgment.
Many rhetorical flourishes were employed, but due to lack of space, I won't write them down.
I had lunch with the saintess and the Left Dharma Protector and talked about the future schedule.
For now, we decided that the saintess would pray until the Day of Judgment arrives.
In other words, 'Live as you please.'
As she requested, I arranged a space open to everyone where followers could come and pray at any time.
Since there was an unused auditorium anyway, this wasn't difficult.
From what I roughly heard, it seems she plans to decorate it like a commonly known cathedral or church.
Well, it doesn't matter.
Near the end of the meal, I asked about the thing I considered most important, the thing I had been wanting to ask since earlier.
"Hmm hmm. Saintess-nim?"
"Just call me Bichi comfortably, Sect Leader-nim."
...
"I'll just call you Saintess. Saintess, I heard from Raxia-nim that you have a mysterious power. That you can heal people through prayer."
"Ah, yes, that's right. As expected, you are the Sect Leader-nim who hears Raxia-nim's words."
"Actually, one of the internal organs in my body is cracked, and I was told you could fix it."
!!
The Left Dharma Protector reacted to my words.
She is one of the few people who knows that Ja-ung-cheon's dantian was cracked.
"Yes, Sect Leader-nim. It was possible as long as it wasn't something like amputation. But since coming here, I've never done it, so I'm not sure."
Well, that place and here are different worlds anyway.
"For amputated parts, I could block the wound to stop bleeding, but I couldn't reattach them or restore them to their original state."
"I trust you. Ah, is it necessary to see the wound with your eyes?"
If so, I'd have to cut open my stomach.
Please...
"No, if I touch the area near the wound with my hand, I can feel it."
Phew, what a relief.
"Yess!"
...
The saintess and Left Dharma Protector looked bewildered by my shout.
"Hmm hmm, it's nothing. So, can you treat me now?"
"First, the exact location of the wound..."
I immediately bared my stomach and pointed below my navel.
"Oh my..."
She covered her eyes with her hand while blushing, but she was looking through her fingers.
What is that supposed to be...
Besides, we've already seen each other naked.
"Please diagnose me."
"Yes, Sect Leader-nim."
She came to my side and carefully touched my stomach.
"Is it here?"
"That's right. There's an organ called the dantian in the center of that area. It's currently in a cracked state."
She touched my stomach a little more.
Rubbing it.
Slowly, and then her hand went down...
"Ah, that's not it."
"Oh my! I'm sorry."
She quickly withdrew her hand.
"I think I'll have to try it to know. To use my healing power, I need to pray to Raxia-nim and obtain holy power."
"Ah, since I gave you holy power yesterday, you should be able to use it right away."
At my words, she knelt down to pray, and then her body began to shine brightly.
"Ah... Raxia-nim... Even I've never seen holy power of this level..."
That's the power of my semen...
Even I'm embarrassed to say it.
"Then, Sect Leader-nim. I will place my hand on the wound you mentioned just now. You will feel pain, but it's part of the healing process. Please endure it."
This is similar to what I said yesterday...
I've been having déjà vu often lately.
I thought this was supposed to be a glitch in some movie?
[ Right, Tirseuna?
...
Why aren't you answering anymore... ]
"Right now, that action..."
Air typing?
I saw it last time.
You'll get used to it now too.
"Yes, I am receiving a divine revelation. It tells me to heal now."
She immediately placed her hand on my stomach and prayed.
The white halo I had seen earlier swirled around her body, then suddenly gathered at her head and slowly flowed down through her hand like water.
"Pretty..."
I thought it came out of my mouth, but it was the Left Dharma Protector who said it.
"Ugh..."
Suddenly, pain in my stomach.
The halo that had been in the saintess's hand had already been transferred to my stomach.
"Krrrgh..."
This is quite painful. Is this really healing?
I only met the saintess yesterday; am I trusting her too much?
No, she took my special aphrodisiac, so there's no way she would betray me.
I see beads of sweat forming on the saintess's forehead.
It seems she's also putting in quite a bit of effort.
As the light gradually diminished, my pain also subsided.
"It's done."
I can feel it even without her saying it.
That my dantian has returned to its original state.
It's empty now, but that's fine; I just need to fill it.
Even if Ja-ung-cheon wasn't a master, his body had originally learned martial arts.
And since he has those memories, learning will also be fast.
"Sect Leader-nim, congratulations."
"Congratulations, Sect Leader-nim."
"Thank you both."
As I stood up receiving their congratulations, the world looked different.
Now I feel like I can do anything.
I have a harem, I have guards, I'm becoming strong... Perfect!
On such a joyful day, what should I do?
"Left Dharma Protector. Since the treatment just ended, I think I need to cancel the afternoon schedule and rest in my room."
"I understand, Sect Leader-nim. I'll take care of things today, so please rest well."
Skipping out, as expected.
At my words, the saintess tilted her head but said nothing.
She must have treated many people, so she would know I was originally fine.
"Thank you once again."
"All of this is the will of Raxia-nim, who sent me here to prepare for the Day of Judgment."
"That's right. Thank you, Raxia-nim!!"
The three of us gave thanks to a god who doesn't even exist, looking up at the sky.
Anyway, long live Raxia-nim.
##
On my bed in my room.
I rolled around, recalling the memories from five years ago when Ja-ung-cheon's dantian was cracked.
During his time as the Young Cult Leader, he was naturally, like his father, a man crazy with sexual lust.
Of course, even now...
No, I'm not...
Anyway, at that time, due to his status as the Young Cult Leader, he couldn't openly mess with his father's followers.
Though he did sneak around sometimes.
In the end, unable to overcome his sexual desire, he frequently sought out suitable partners outside.
He was handsome and had learned martial arts, so it would have been easy for him against ordinary people.
One day, while following a beautiful woman he spotted on the street.
When he tried to assault her in a secluded place, he got beaten up and his dantian was cracked.
It seems that woman was quite a master.
The fortunate thing was that she left him unconscious and went away?
He might have been killed on the spot if she hadn't.
The Murim world is like that.
After regaining consciousness, he barely managed to return to the cult.
But who could say, "I got beaten trying to assault a woman and my dantian cracked"?
Besides, even if it was a cult, he was the Young Cult Leader's body.
He just made up an excuse that he tripped and hit a rock.
In Ja-ung-cheon's memories, the cult leader at the time, his father, seemed to have no interest in his own son.
Two years later, his father said he had received a revelation from Raxia-nim, handed over the cult leader position to Ja-ung-cheon, and disappeared.
What a confusing family.
Where did that guy, who was so obsessed with sex, go after giving up his harem?
Anyway, the dantian is restored.
Now this body can use martial arts.
I hummed a tune and air-typed.
[ For the mental cultivation method, I think I'll use the Rapid Yang Energy Method you told me about last time. Any good martial arts?
Cheonma Singong, Taeheo Mugeukgong, Honwon Ilgigong, Gucheon Myeolsingong, Jeolcheon Paehwanggong, Mugeuk Gwiwongong...
The names of martial arts were listed endlessly.
Even just from the names, I could tell they were better than the basic martial arts I had taught the guards before.
Which makes them even harder to choose.
[ These martial arts all have pros and cons, right?
ㅇㅇ. If you need, do you want me to tell you the pros and cons of each?
[ No, is it possible to combine strong martial arts, complementing their pros and cons, to create a martial art unique to me?
...
It is possible.
Then that's the obvious choice.
[ Then do that. Explain it in a way that I can understand entirely.
After a moment, a massive amount of text filled the screen.
When am I going to memorize all this...
As expected, becoming strong isn't easy.
Ugh, I've lived my life avoiding studying!
I thought I'd just become an OP protagonist effortlessly here!
My head hurts.
At times like this, the answer is to take a step back.
So, who should I do it with...
I chanted a spell and seriously thought about who to choose.
"Who shall I choose? Guess correctly, ding-dong-deng, Dr. Know-it-all."
Knock knock
What the? Startled.
"Sect Leader-nim. Eunmirang-nim wishes to see you."
Huh? What is she doing here at this hour?
"Let her in."
"Eun Gong."
"Yes, what brings you here?"
In her hands, as she entered the room, was something.
Oh, is that what I think it is?
"The basic frame is complete, so I came to check if it's correct."
"What? You made this in just two days?"
"Yes. The blueprint was precise, so it wasn't difficult."
She showed me the garter belt and lingerie she was holding.
It's not perfect, but it's realized better than I imagined.
"I plan to fix this part and this part with different fabric to complement it..."
As expected, a professional is a professional.
"For now, I fit the measurements to my own body. Later, if you tell me the measurements of the people who will wear it, I'll adjust it accordingly."
"I see. Good work. Proceed as is."
Even though I finished speaking, she didn't leave the room.
Why is that?
"Well, that is... Since I'll wear it myself, if you could check if there are any insufficient parts..."
Isn't this grown woman embarrassed?
Of course, I'm fine with it.
"Well, that would be more certain."
"Yes, then I'll..."
Sliding
She took off her clothes.
She wasn't wearing a single thread underneath, which caught me off guard.
So she came prepared.
She put on the garter belt and lingerie, then flicked her panties at the end and showed me.
"How is it?"
A charming body.
"Beautiful."
My cock, getting hard just looking at her.
It's a conditioned reflex.
She stared intently at my cock, then knelt down and bowed.
"We were given a new life thanks to Eun Gong. I wish to offer even a small repayment."
Repayment in that state can only be one thing, right?
No way?
"Do you know what that means when you say it?"
"Yes."
Her face reddened.
"Good. Come here."
I called her to the bed.
"Assume the position as I instruct."
Lying down with her legs spread wide under my direction.
Keur, feels good...
The person who invented this kind of underwear is a real genius!!
Especially that flesh folding on her thighs is really hot.
Perfect!
"Eun Gong..."
She seems embarrassed from me just staring.
Got it.
As repayment, I'll send Hong Kong today.
