Chapter 277 – Hong Yeon-hwa’s World

Six months had passed.

During that time, many things had happened, but nothing unexpected had occurred. Everything that happened was bound to happen eventually.

First of all, Pang So-so and Sama Ye-ryeong had become complete virgins, and I had also ascended to a proper Hwagyeong, not a half-assed one.

When Pang Oh-jin heard the news, he came dancing from the front gate and even gave me the gold coin I was supposed to receive.

Oh, right. Hong Yeon-hwa also interpreted and shared some of the Cheondung Swordsmanship’s mysteries.

It was only a part, and even though it was already interpreted by Hong Yeon-hwa, it was still too complicated, and I needed more time to write it down properly.

And Sama Se’s Tycoon was also successful. They gathered the surviving old masters and developed their own military force.

Although it was not as powerful as the Odaese, it had grown to a level where it was called a prestigious family.

I planned to gather the Sabas who were attracted to the rebuilt Sama Se, but now it’s time to think about the Badoryeon’s formation….

I decided to postpone that for a while.

The reason was simple. Something more important had been accomplished.

Something that was bound to happen eventually. The most important thing I had been waiting for, Myungwoljinin’s alcohol research, was completed.

For that reason, everyone stopped what they were doing and headed to Mosanpa.

***

“Hello, Myungwoljinin.”

“Long time no see, everyone.”

“Well, it’s only been two months since we last met.”

Mosanpa, which had experienced a decline in overall power due to the failure of the Kangshin family’s alcohol techniques, had been in a semi-closed state, avoiding external activities, but not anymore.

Those who had achieved the So-gi with the Danhon Dohwa swordsmanship, which was used by the Mosanpa in the other world that Hong Yeon-hwa had shared, began to emerge.

Moreover, they supplemented the lack of power that had been caused by the acquired martial arts after the Jeongsadaejeon.

Of course, they were still weaker than other places in the Kupailbang, but they had enough power to live up to their name.

Thanks to that, they often went out and about like before, and I had a few meetings with Myungwoljinin.

“To be honest, the days when I sent a letter saying that the alcohol technique test was successful and waited for the Sohyeop group to come felt longer than those two months. So it’s been more than two months.”

“No, why are you saying that so sentimentally? I’m trying to give you goosebumps.”

“Hehe. I’ve learned such a great alcohol technique, but there’s no one to boast about it.”

Myungwoljinin said with a sly smile.

Right. Boasting is a big deal.

Moreover, if it was the ultimate destination of all Taoist sects, the Shinseon’s alcohol technique, my mouth would have been itching.

First of all, this is top secret, so we can’t talk about it anywhere else.

Hong Yeon-hwa nodded with a wry smile at Myungwoljinin.

“You’ve worked hard. Can we move on right away?”

“Of course. It’s not just a test, but I’ve never had any problems using it properly. I’ve practiced it perfectly even considering the frequency. However…”

“However?”

“However, there’s something you need to know beforehand.”

“This alcohol technique… Oh, I named it Ojakgyo, but is it okay to call it that?”

“There’s no problem. I only explained the pronunciation, and since I didn’t tell you the name, you can call it whatever you want, Myungwoljinin.”

“Thank you. Anyway, there’s no problem with the Ojakgyo alcohol technique itself. There’s no loss of internal energy, time difference, or being bounced to another location. It’s more efficient to use it in Yeongsan, so I named it that way, but you can use it anywhere else.”

“But there’s still some problem, right?”

“Yes.”

Myungwoljinin paused for a moment, as if taking a break, and chose his words carefully.

“There’s no problem with going over there, but there were problems when Cheonma came over here.”

“Um. That’s right. Thanks to that, I almost died, but I don’t regret it because I could meet my husband.”

Hong Yeon-hwa shrugged her shoulders as if it was nothing. But it was a big deal.

The martial artist who stepped into Hyeongyeong lost all of his internal energy. Not only did his internal energy disappear, but the Danjeon itself evaporated, so he had to start building his internal energy from scratch.

Before he could even recover his strength, he almost died from meeting Cheokan Geumgwi, who was much lower than himself.

However, the problem Myungwoljinin wanted to talk about was not that.

“Various problems that occurred when Cheonma came over here… There must have been a time difference, for sure.”

“Ah.”

Just like how Hong Yeon-hwa lost all of her internal energy when she came over here, there could have been a time discrepancy already.

When they go back, they can go back without any problems, but by then, several years or more of time may have passed here.

“There won’t be any problems in the future, but we can’t just pretend that the problems that have already occurred didn’t happen. I’ve thought of various ways, but the conclusion remains the same.”

“….”

Hong Yeon-hwa was momentarily confused, but soon regained her composure and let out a deep sigh.

“That’s… something we can’t help, isn’t it?”

As they waited for Myungwoljinin to finish his preparations, Hong Yeon-hwa couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement and arousal. The thought of using the Ojakgyo alcohol technique to travel through time was thrilling, and she couldn’t wait to experience it for herself.

Finally, Myungwoljinin signaled that he was ready, and they began the process of connecting the Ojakgyo. As they worked, Hong Yeon-hwa couldn’t help but feel a sense of carnal excitement building within her. The thought of traveling through time with her companions, experiencing new adventures and pleasures, was almost too much to bear.

As the Ojakgyo was connected, Hong Yeon-hwa felt a surge of energy coursing through her body. She could feel the power of the technique, and she knew that they were ready to make the journey.

“Are you ready?” Myungwoljinin asked.

Hong Yeon-hwa nodded, her heart racing with anticipation.

“Let’s go.”

With that, they stepped onto the Ojakgyo and were transported through time. The sensation was indescribable, as if they were being pulled through a vortex of time and space.

When they arrived at their destination, Hong Yeon-hwa couldn’t believe her eyes. They had traveled back to a time when she was just a young girl, and everything was so different. The sights, the sounds, the smells – it was all so overwhelming.

But as she looked around, she realized that she was not alone. Her companions were there with her, and they were all experiencing the same sense of wonder and excitement.

As they explored this new world, Hong Yeon-hwa couldn’t help but feel a sense of arousal building within her. The thought of experiencing new pleasures in this unfamiliar time was almost too much to bear.

And as the night wore on, they indulged in all manner of carnal pleasures, exploring each other’s bodies with a passion and intensity that was almost vulgar.

But for Hong Yeon-hwa, it was a night she would never forget. A night of passion, of exploration, of discovery. And as she lay there, spent and satisfied, she knew that she would do it all again in a heartbeat.

“Even after experiencing over a hundred deaths and recalling all those sensations, it’s truly frightening how the narrow-minded thinking of Sohyup treats the trials of the movie as a training tool.”

But this is exactly like that, isn’t it? It’s like those virtual reality games that I often saw in novels in my past life, or the monster reproduction device in hunter stories.

Can you think of something other than training when you see something like that?

As I tilted my head in confusion, Myungwoljinin chuckled and spoke.

“It’s just a guess, but I think there won’t be any trials for a considerable amount of time.”

“Huh? Really?”

“After hearing Sohyup say that they can’t rewrite the movie, I did a little research on past records.”

As a result, he found a record that the first person to break through the trials of the original movie and the leader of Mosanpa, Ju Jon Mohongok, only faced the trials again at the end of his life.

“Perhaps there is some kind of internal cycle or condition other than the power that is visible on the surface.”

“Ugh…”

Scratching the back of my head in confusion and trying to regain my appetite, Myungwoljinin stood up with a chuckle.

“Now, the preparations are complete. Everyone, please step back a little.”

And then, there were incomprehensible words and a flashing ring of light.

The result was successful.
