Chapter 60: Blessing in a disguise (5)

It was astounding . Over hundreds of stones were placed around the pillar, and twenty-four of them had placed in the shape of a dragon soaring up into the sky . It was the same shape that was placed on the pedestal .

“So, this was what that dragon meant! This was it!”

Yeowun’s voice became excited from the finding . He then quickly wanted to look into what meaning it held .

‘Nano, get rid of the other stones and leave only those twenty-four stones . ’

[Understood . ]

And Nano’s voice trailed off, the extra stones in the image began to disappear . Yeowun looked closely at the remaining stones . There were writings and teachings related to a breathing skill . However, it didn’t seem like any other breathing skill .

‘What is this?’

The writing required a certain movement and flow in the internal energy through certain blood points . And the movement of the skill was very familiar . Yeowun frowned as he knew these movements .

‘This is similar to the movement of the Sword Force of the Sky Demon . ’

It was the exact same sword movement . Yeowun then walked over to other stones . After checking out every stone, his eyes shook in shock .

“Oh my… these are all sword movements from the Sword Force . ”

All the movements recorded on the stones were equal to the twenty-four sword movements of the Sword Force of the Sky Demon . However, those were all paired with the related breathing skill, and that was connected from the head of the dragon to its tail .

‘This is strange… it’s really strange . ’

This was strange if these things represented a breathing skill . A breathing skill usually required one to sit or lie down to take a comfortable position, but this was one with the sword movement to display a sword formation .

‘I should just give it a try . ’

He had no way to find out unless he tried it out .

‘Nano, can you transfer these teachings and movements into me?’

[Understood . Transferring to the user’s brain…]

Nano soon transferred all the information into Yeowun’s brain . When it was done, Yeowun used his finger to follow the first movement .

‘Take a deep breath and move into…’

The meditating also started . He had to connect all the movements together while in motion . Yeowun followed the twenty-four movements and sent his internal energy into the blood points as written in the breathing skill .

As the energy stopped flowing through his body, the qi in the body began to tremble . Yeowun then repeated the twenty-four movements again without thinking, as if he had gone into a trance . The powerful energy flowed inside, and Nano began to analyze to store it as data .

After some time had passed, Yeowun stopped . He didn’t even know how long he had been practicing this breathing skill .

‘Nano, how long have I been doing this?’

[It has been two hours . ]

‘What? Two hours?’

It was shocking to hear that he had been moving through the movements for two hours straight . Yet, he didn’t feel exhausted or tired . It even felt like he was full of energy and the internal energy was flowing fluidly within him .

‘It felt like the energy flow became faster as I moved through . ’

[Yes, that is true, Master . ]

Nano had recorded the quick energy flow within the body already . Yeowun then became curious about Nano’s conclusion and brought up his internal energy .

“Huh?”

The speed of the internal energy flow had gotten much faster . He focused slightly and the energy spread into his body very quickly . When Yeowun focused on his right hand, a clear light appeared to create a qi on his hand .

‘It’s much faster now!’

Yeowun was not used to shaping qi outside his body . But with the quickened energy flow, shaping qi was also much easier now . The breathing skill that was written on the stone was beyond the level of any breathing skill .

‘Ah… this should be the best breathing skill in the world!’

Chun Yeowun was astounded beyond belief . There was no telling as to how much he would grow if he trained with the breathing skill . Yeowun then walked over to the pillar at the center .

[Sword Force of the Sky Demon]

He now knew why this was written as Sword Force . This martial art was a sword formation and breathing skill combined into one .

‘So Father Chun really was a legendary man . ’

No one else in the Wulin would even dare to combine a sword skill with a breathing skill . The Sword Force of the Sky Demon would allow one to train the sword skill while meditating with the breathing skill .

‘Father, please accept my bow . ’

Yeowun then bowed twice to the pillar . It was to show his respect for receiving such a gift from the ancestor . Yeowun then got up .

‘This is fortunate that I came across this . ’

Baek Oh’s action to put Yeowun into danger was truly a blessing in disguise . If Baek Oh found out about what followed after he left, he might collapse because of a stroke from the shock .

‘So, there’s only one thing left to do then . ’

Yeowun then walked over to the pillar so he could erase the traces . He couldn’t do it near the blue pearl stone pedestal since there were guards, but no one was here . It would be hard to find out what Father Chun had left without Nano’s help, but he didn’t want to leave any hints for the others to find out about it .

‘I’ll just erase these holes . ’

Yeowun then reached out to the holes while wielding internal energy in his hand . That’s when the pillar began to tremble while letting out steam .

“W-what?!”

Yeowun jumped back . Something came up from the pillar and soared up into the ceiling, striking the glowing stones . The ceiling shook and some of the stones dropped to the ground .

Yeowun was shocked, but he quickly hopped to dodge the falling stones . It seemed like the shock wasn’t too bad, since only a few stones had dropped .

“Huh?”

Yeowun’s eye grew wide . The number of stones that dropped was the twenty-four .

‘No way . . ’

He then walked over and frowned . The stones were those with the movements and writings from the Sword Force of the Sky Demon .
