27 Years ago.
When Chun Woo-jin is imprisoned in a secret prison, his dantian is destroyed.
As one of the Five Great Warriors, he thought that he could recover his martial arts at a later time, but that was not the case.
They had even blocked the flow of energy into his blood.
‘Restore my martial arts?’
He had given up on such a dream.
Arriving at the Yongchun Group headquarters, he tried to recover his dantian using a cultivation method, but it did not work.
It had been so long since his dantian had been destroyed that recovering it seemed impossible.
“I thought I accepted my destiny.”
Chun Woo-jin's eyes are tinged with hope as she sits cross-legged.
The place he was sitting in was the training room of the Yongchun Group's chairman.
Heart's shaking.
‘Can I do martial arts again?’
Murim warriors will achieve the greatest happiness and satisfaction when they acquire a sense of accomplishment. And their most desperate time was when they lost their swords.
As soon as he felt hope, which could be called the root of martial arts, his eyes sparkled.
“You must be ready.”
Chun Yeowun approached him.
Chun Woo-jin gulps and answers.
“Ya.”
Despite the face of a 76-year-old man, his heart was racing like a teenager. Seeing that, Chun Yeowun smiled. It was because he could empathize with his feelings.
“I hope I succeed.”
This was the first time Chun Yeowun had recovered someone's lost dantian.
This was something he realized after reaching the level of a Celestial Master Teacher, but there was one person who wanted him to rush over and heal their Dantian.
‘Guard Jang.’
The man who took care of Chun Yeowun since she was young. Chun Yeowun has always felt bad for Escort Jang, who lost his Dantian as he fell into the trap of another clan, a rival clan seeking power.
“That's possible now.”
Chun Yeowun placed her palm on the old man's dantian.
Chun Yeowun spoke to him, who was nervous.
“It will be very painful.”
“... I'm used to pain. Hu hu hu.”
Chun Woo-jin responds with a big smile. He never stayed in prison. But he is a patient man.
“Then I'm happy.”
Woong!
As soon as he said that, Chun Yeowun drew energy from the surrounding realms.
Chun Woo-jin, who lost her skills, can't feel anything, but.
‘What is this? The energy around it is increasing rapidly.’
In the present era, the natural energy had faded greatly.
Therefore, the Murim warriors had to gather a device that could provide them with energy.
However, clear energies gathered in the training room.
‘Use me as media.’
Natural energy condensed into Chun Yeowun's body.
At the same time, the energy that was in Chun Yeowun, immediately moved into the palm of Chun Woo-jin's dantian.
“Ek!”
A cry came out from Chun Woo-jin's mouth. The energy he felt after a long time now filled his dantian.
What is even more surprising is that this energy is so pure that it cannot be compared to the devices they have.
“It will be difficult to survive from now on.”
“It's fine.”
“Good.”
A red light started to shine from Chun Yeowun's palm. The Nano scan function controls natural energy while looking at the conditions in the body.
‘The place the Dantian has completely shattered is stiff. It's been so long since he was hit.’
This is not a problem that Nano cannot recover from.
Chun Yeowun concentrated the natural energy in that place.
Woong!
Then, natural energy appeared at the center of the Dantian.
In doing so, rigid things are destroyed.
“Ak!”
Moans erupt from Chun Woo-jin's mouth.
It was as if the pain from destroying the Dantian was being conveyed.
And this is just the beginning.
When Chun Yeowun waved her hand, natural energy gathered around her and turned into a small ball.
“I'll break through the clogged vessels.”
Shhh!
When Chun Yeowun moved her hand, a small ball of energy condensed into her body.
Great pain ruled him.
“Kuaak!”
Chun Woo-jin clenches her teeth. Even though it was painful enough to make her pale, she persisted.
“She's pretty stubborn.”
Chun Yeowun thought that the man would not stand it, but she was shocked.
It definitely makes no sense considering his age.
‘Dad.’
Chun Yu-jang looked through the window of the training room with sweat. That was about an hour after it started.
“It should be enough.”
Chun Woo-jin's body adapts to energy.
And the dantian created by the natural energy, was finished.
Chun Yeowun took out a small bottle from her pocket.
‘Blood Qilin.’
What was inside the bottle was a few drops of Blood Qilin.
After Mun Ran-yeong recovers, Chun Yeowun takes back the bottle.
Because he knew how important even a drop of blood was.
“Haha... hiks..”.
Chun Yoewun looked at Chun Woo-jin who sighed while bathed in sweat.
He opened his mouth and poured three drops.
“Snap and develop. From now on, you have to handle it.”
Since the ship was opened, the energy could no longer be blocked.
And he could recover his dantian if he could cultivate the energy he received from the Blood Qilin.
There was only one thing Chun Yeowun could do now.
It was to control the fire produced by Qilin with its Ice qi.
“Kuaaaak!”
It was only three drops, but the heat still surged from Chun Woo-jin's body.
Since his internal energy was almost non-existent, he would not be able to handle three drops alone.
The whole room started to freeze.
“Eh?”
Even the windows are foggy.
Therefore, Chun Yu-jang who was watching from the outside, had no choice but to become impatient.
And two more hours passed.
Jjk!
The training room door is open.
From there, Chun Yeowun appeared, her entire body covered in ice. Chun Yu-jang, who did not move a single step, asked.
“Holyener. How did it go?”
“See yourself.”
“Hah?”
At that moment, someone walked out from inside the training room, with steam escaping from his body.
Chun Yu-jang, who saw that, was covered in tears.
‘Not ... Impossible ..’
He never dreamed that he could see this again. Just three hours ago, his father was just a fragile old man in his 70s, and now, he was back just like before being captured.
From the outside, he looked like a middle-aged man in his 40s.
“Fa-father!”
Looking at the flowing energy, Chun Yu-jang could see that his dantian had recovered.
Chun Woo-jin also can't hide her excitement. A big smile was on his face.
“Holyener!”
Chun Woo-jin kneels in front of Chun Yeowun.
He never thought that he could recover his Dantian and perform martial arts again, but he not only recovered his Dantian, but his body returned to its peak again.
He could feel it from a firmer skin.
“I don't know how to return this favor ..”
Chun Yeowun said to him.
“If you want to return the favor, you need to restore the prestige of the Sect after recovering completely.”
“Ahhh!”
He recovered his dantian, and his body returned to normal.
But he still had to get used to his new body.
Chun Yeowun had forcibly restored her body to its original state with the help of natural energy, but her muscles were still in a state of decline, which now required training.
Banging his head against the floor, Chun Woo-jin said,
“I will recover as soon as possible and fix everything!”
This is something that will be solved with hard work and time. Chun Yu-jang is at a loss for words over her father's confident words.
‘To restore it back to its state 27 years ago..is this what the second generation Chun Ma actually meant?’
He could not help but be amazed at Chun Yeowun's endless abilities. He wondered if anything was impossible for him.
Chun Yeowun asked Chun Yu-jang.
“Is it finished?”
“Ah! Core purification machine?”
Installation was delayed because it took several days to transport the truck on its way to the Murim Association. But now they can use it.
“Is it in factory Sector 4?”
“Ya true.”
“Come go. I need to see it.”
“Hah? Ancestors. You must be tired after everything you did today, shouldn't you rest?”
Chun Yu-jang, who was outside the training room, felt how much energy was flowing inside. It was too much, and he knew that such energy would not be replenished immediately.
Chun Woo-jin agrees, too,
“Not needed.”
Chun Yeowun immediately refused.
He understood their worries, but Chun Yeowun did not really use her energy.
All he did was act as a medium for energy from nature. He was mentally exhausted. That'sthat's all.
‘Hah..’.
Not knowing that, Chun Woo-jin and Chun Yu-jang feel bad.
One of Yongchun Group office building.
There's a prison hidden in the basement. In prison there was an exotic handsome man with long brown hair and a pointy nose on a chair with a dissatisfied face.
He was Demon Deo, who was defeated by Chun Yeowun.
‘Cih.’
How many times has he fainted in his life? After completing Chun Yeowun's orders, he was able to obtain the heart sword embedded within the core once he arrived here.
Since he had been through so much for such a long time, he felt stunned for the entire day.
“This ... is prison?”
“Hh. Right.”
It was Chun Yeowun's second secretary, Shakena, who grumbled outside the prison cell.
Upon waking up, he sensed that he had awakened his energy and came to that place.
And feel that this makes no sense, Deo said.
“I surrender. Why am I in here and you out?”
“I don't know. Teacher told me to lock you up until you wake up.”
Deo clicked his tongue at Shakena's bright words.
“Ck tch, the reputation of heart hunters seems to have run out, working for humans.”
Their clan regarded humans as worms. Insects that move and die.
Surrender to such a creature and swear allegiance to it!
“Master is different from other humans. You must have experienced it too.”
Deo heaved a sigh of relief at Shakena's words. Obviously this guy is different.
“... Is he really human? The clan has been sending people to this planet for a long time, but this is the first time I have seen such power.”
“Hahs. You said that when you only lived for 400 years.”
Their average age is not the same as humans. With a life-enhancing body structure as they became stronger, the number of years they could live was over 1,000 if they were above the Marquis.
“Four hundred is long enough. You haven't been here long so you don't know, but humans live for less than a hundred. Looking at his face, he was less than 1/5 of it. I don't understand him.”
“Really? I heard from a human named BI Mak-heon that he lived for over a thousand years?”
“What? Thousand years? Is he really human?”
Deo can't believe the word ‘thousand years’.
It was a misunderstanding on Shakena's part, but Deo was convinced.
‘. He will not lose to me, who has been here for 20 years.’
Shakena asked him while thinking.
“By the way, what happened to you? Did you find the traitor?”
Deo, who hesitated for a moment, nodded his head.
Not understanding what he meant, Shakena asked.
“And you are okay?”
It was certain that if they met a traitor, they would fight desperately. One side would be able to escape, and the other would be eyeing their king's neck.
But Deo just frowned.
Smile, said Shakena.
“You lost.”
The arrogant Deo had no reason to be silent. And he continued.
“You were defeated, but congratulations because the traitor gave you a chance.”
From the perspective of a traitor who preys on his own people, there is no reason to keep Deo alive.
Except, he gave up and swore loyalty.
“Yes, you swore to surrender to humans!”
“But it does not violate the laws of the clan!”
Predation of their kind is taboo. Killing was fine, but only under the command of their king. However, Deo breaks it and surrenders to traitors.
“Sweetest! I don't think you deserve the title of Count.”
“Do not talk like that. If you saw it 4 years ago, you would have changed your mind.”
“Dia?”
Shakena's eyes narrowed hearing that. Deo spoke as if he didn't care.
“True. He ... he is no longer in a position to be called a traitor.”
“What is it now? Not at the level of the so-called traitor?”
“He has grown so strong that he no longer needs to form his own clan.”
“What?”
“What do you think is the reason he kept me, a Count, alive?”
That was.
the piece!
“Kuak!”
A black shadow stabbed his hand into Deo's chest.
In his head was a core, which could be called Deo's heart.
“T...this..”
Deo was surprised to hear that. From the shadows behind him, an exotic looking man with a face full of scars and a bulging body was there.
“K-Kyle!”
Deo recognized him and called his name.
At that time, Kyle said.
“He told me to take you in, but you leaked information to insects.”
“You!”
Shakena, who recognized Kyle's whereabouts, called out to him in a voice mixed with anger, and gradually entered the prison.
At that moment, Kyle's body returned to the shadow.
Holy hooch!
Shakena looked around with narrowed eyes. He tried to sense the demonic energy again, but he could not feel anything.
And Deo, who was running out of time, said to her.
“T... No use. Run.”
“What you said!”
“Un... Not like me.. which... under it... strong.”.
Thump!
Deo's neck is limp.
“Yah! Wake up! If you die, I will be scolded by Master!”
Holy hooch!
At that moment, a black shadow created sharp thorns on the prison floor, trying to kill him.
It happened in a split second, but Shakena removed it gradually.
Woong!
In that state, he reached the floor. Purple energy began to appear around him in the form of a ball and fell onto the floor.
The kwakwakwang!
Many holes were drilled into the floor, and the lower floor was visible. However, the person who attacked him was invisible.
‘Where is he?’
Shakena is serious.
He knows a demon named Kyle.
As a Count-class demon, he was much lower than his rank, and in the past, he was also not good at hiding his energy, so his presence was always revealed.
‘I don't feel any energy!’
But now, he couldn't feel it. Even when he emerged from the shadows, he only knew about it after he let out a sound.
Shakena screams!
“Where are you? Kyle! Don is hiding and out to fight!”
His screams echoed in the building. But Kyle didn't show up. Shakena kept moving, trying to find any traces.
That was it, then,
Holy hooch!
Hearing a voice ringing in his ear, Shakena used Phasing. Suddenly, a black shadow passed through his chest. A little late, and it'll catch him.
“You !”
Upset, Shakena clicked her tongue. In that short time, Kyle's shadow re-seeped into the shadows.
“Interrupt!”
The fight was troublesome because his abilities were more perfect than before.
And Kyle's gloomy voice could be heard by Shakena.
“With the power we both have, this fight will continue. Surrender. Liver Hunter.”
“You're there!”
Shakena shoots an energy ball into the location of the sound.
Holy hooch! Bang out!
The ball broke the wall.
“You !”
Kyle's voice came out from the other direction.
“I will give you a chance because you are a member of the same clan.”
“What?”
“If you surrender and kill a human named Chun Mu-seong with me. I'll give you the honor of working for him.”
Shakena shouted as if the offer made no sense.
“Fuck that shit! You think you can fight my master!”
Shhh!
Then, Kyle's head came out from the ceiling.
Laughing, he said.
“Kuak, man is your master? The Heart Hunter is just a pet to humans! Ahaha! Humans can be killed at any time.”.
Even before he finished,
“What are you, and what are you doing here?”
Kyle frowned at the voice coming from somewhere else. Unlike him, Shakena smiled and called out.
“Mastered!”
“Mastered?”
Kyle was wondering.
Bang out!
A hand pierced through the ceiling and grabbed his head.
“Eh?”
Kyle, whose head was pinched, tried to seep back into the shadows, but the surrounding incredible energy pressed down on him, and his body was dragged out.
The kwakwang!
“Kuaaaak!”
