The nerve battle between Cheon Mugung and Baekryeon Guild over Kang Yu-sik ended with the victory of Baekryeon Guild. Unlike Shinku Zhao, the king of Cheonmu, who did not know much about the food provided by the hotel, Li Mei, Munju of Baekryeon, was regular enough to memorize even the dinner served every day of the week.

"Then I'll see you next time."

"See you next time. Cheonmu."

With Shinku Zao behind his lips, Yusik Kang escaped with the Guild of Baekryeon, and reporters captured the scene on camera.

Perhaps the knights will go through all sorts of processing without touching the heart of the heavenly warriors.

‘You know for sure that this isn't easy.'

Actually, even if it wasn't for food, Kang Yu-sik was going to follow the Baekryeon Guild from the beginning, but there were two reasons for that.

The first is that the Emperor of Heaven showed suspicious behavior, such as checking Tao Fei and blocking the items that would come to him. And the second was that Cheonmugung itself was a group with a lot of questionable things for an educational institution.

‘If it had been a really ordinary educational institution, Cheonmu Gongju would not have ruled China's future.'

Although we have not been able to find out exactly yet, it is certain that Cheonmu Gung is deeply intertwined with politics and other places.

Therefore, Kang Yu-sik chose the facility prepared by the Baekryeon Guild rather than the facility prepared by the Chun Mugung.

‘There's nothing wrong with being careful.'

In a closed country like China, once things get twisted, things get twisted up endlessly. Of course, now that he has his own size, it won't happen easily, but if you think about what happened before the return, there's nothing wrong with being careful.

After passing the reporters and the crowd, Kang got into the car, followed by Li Meido, and the car drove out of the airport.

“Isn’t that a lot of fuss?”

“No. It's like that. It's everywhere.

"It can be said to be noisy if there is more. Li May smirked at Kang Yoo-sik's relaxed answer. "

"I'm still tired, so I'll ask you to be as quiet as possible when moving forward."

As she noticed to some extent that they were reporters wanted by the Cheon Mugung and Baekryeon guilds, Kang Yu-sik immediately asked, and Li May shook her head and nodded.

"Of course. Don't worry about that part."

“And…do you have any plans in mind after this?”

”Hmm. First of all, I would like to serve you a meal and then guide you to the headquarters of the Baekryeon Guild."

"If it's the office building, which one?"

Lee May smiled at Kang Yoo-sik’s question.

"Baekryeon Gate."

After arriving at the hotel and having lunch and after unpacking his luggage, Kang got back in the car and went to the Baekryeonmun Gate, the headquarters of the Baekryeon Guild.

There were a total of two headquarters of the Baekryeon Guild in Beijing. The first is the Baekryeon Building, a skyscraper located in the city center. And the second one was Baekryeon Gate in the outskirts of which Kang Yu-sik was heading now.

‘It's very spacious, but… .'

Head office building carved out of five mountains on the outskirts of Beijing. Buildings with a mix of modern and traditional styles were erected in various places, including the ridge, but in terms of their size, it was almost like a village rather than an office building.

‘Did you say it was originally a temple?’

The first Baekryeon, who was originally a monk, bought the area and built Baekryeonmun Gate, which was extended to the 2nd and 3rd generations after that.

The amount of money poured out to be suitable for the scale was enormous, but at the very least, the first Baekryeon, who did nothing wrong, was called busy because of the money he spent on it.

‘What? It looks like it was built over a bit though."

Kang Yu-sik, who remembered the huge signboard that read ‘Baekryun-Gate' at the beginning of the mountain, looked outside with a grin.

As they climbed up to the halfway point, the road was cut off as it connected to the parking lot, and they could see the sidewalk leading upwards.

"From there, you have to go up on foot. Get off."

“Ah, yes.”

Hearing Rao Chang’s story, Kang Yu-sik got out of the car immediately and looked slightly surprised at the surrounding scenery.

‘What is it? Why is there so much magical power?'

Although the natural side, which has more vitality than the city center, has more magic power, it is an abnormal amount of magic even considering that.

In a state that can only be explained as artificial, Kang Yu-sik looked around, and soon discovered a secretly unfolding flow that was hard to recognize.

“It’s a magic trick. It’s also a semi-permanent structure created by applying the shape of a building.”

Li May nodded her head with an interesting expression on Kang Yoo-sik’s story. She said,

"Yeah. It's hard to notice right away… but it's amazing."

"Because this is a specialty. It seems to attract the scattered magic power around it… Even considering that, it's a huge amount of magic."

"The effect of amplifying the magic power is also added. Of course, the structure is a secret."

Seeing Li May's smiling face, Kang Yu-sik looked around.

‘This is true. It's a building worth the money.'

There are facilities outside to increase training efficiency by attracting magical powers, but the space is limited and the amount of mana stones consumed is quite large.

By the way, the effect of Baekryeon Gate is applied to the entire area spanning five mountains.

As Kang Yu-sik was looking around a mysterious environment, Rao Chang, who had finished parking, approached.

"I have business inside, so I'll just leave."

"Oh, yes, see you next time."

Rao Chang, nodding his head, sprinted off the floor and disappeared somewhere, and Li Mei approached him. She said,

"We're leaving soon."

“Yes.”

Li Mei took the lead and explained to Kang Yu-sik about the building and area inside Baekryeonmun Gate. Baekryeonmun Gate was divided into three main areas: ‘Ilgwan', open to the general public, and ‘Igwan', accessible only to hunters.

And finally, it was divided into ‘Three Halls' where only members of the Baekryeon Guild could enter.

In terms of the entire area, the consistency is 60%. This is 30% of the transfer. And it was quite open to outsiders to say that it was the guild's office building at about 10%.

"You are more tolerant of outsiders than you think."

"The actual guild's work is handled in the downtown Baekryeon building, so there is no leaked information. There is no need to conserve this large piece of land."

"Aren't you still worried about terrorists?"

"It's okay because the magic trick spread out in the text is discovered and blocked."

Li May shows strong confidence in the magic trick spread on the door of Baekryeon. Kang Yu-sik looked around again at that sight.

‘But, I'd never heard of anything happening here before coming here."

There are quite a few cases of those who used facilities like this who converted to the Baekryeon Guild, so it was a loose policy, but it wasn’t a bad policy.

It came down quickly due to the Beijing incident, but it seems that no one climbs the peak. In deep admiration, Kang Yu-sik looked around the inside of Baekryeon Gate with Li Mei and immediately looked around almost all of the interior.

And finally stopped in front of the entrance deep inside the three-story building.

Here a fence and a door were erected high to prevent entry and exit. And a thick fog pouring from beyond it. At the entrance, which looks unfamiliar at first glance, Kang Yu-sik looked at the signboard.

[Mu Saengwon]

Indeed. this place, a mysterious place that has never been opened since the Baekryeon Guild collapsed and the whereabouts of Baekryeon Moonju became unknown.

Kang Yu-sik, who arrived in front of him, looked at Li May, who had guided him to this place.

"This is a place that only me, the original master of Baekryeon, can enter. Even guild members and cadres, who are executives, are prohibited from entering."

"Are you going to go back from here?"

Lee May shook her head at Yusik Kang’s question.

"No. I'm going in. There is a training center where you can train Baekryeon Hwanmong inside this Musaengwon."

Kang Yoo-sik's eyes widened at Li May's story.

Still, he wondered about the story of the transmission of Baekryeon Hwanmong would come out, but it must have been right here.

“Hmm. Still, I’m not a member of the company, so it’s a bit difficult for me to enter, isn’t it?”

Whenever an exception is made, there is bound to be a strong backlash. Li May smiled bitterly at Kang Yoo-sik's question.

"It's okay. It's not something that cadet Kang Yu-shik cares about."

“Then I’m happy, but…”

“Let’s go in."

Lee Mei approached the door and stretched out her hand and gently pushed it with the tip of her finger. With a heavy sound, the huge door of Mu Saengwon opened wide, and Kang Yu-sik followed Li Mei and entered her.

The fog is so thick here that you can't even see right in front of you even though you've just crossed the door. Kang looked around in a different form, similar to that from Baekryeon Hwanmong.

‘Are you creating something as a medium?'

Seeing that the flow of magic was not felt much around, it seemed to be caused by a special item rather than a magic circle. When Kang Yu-sik was looking at the mysterious landscape with interest, Li May, who had taken her steps earlier, opened her mouth. She said,

"Baekryeon Hwanmong consists of a total of four stages."

"Yes?"

"The first stage is ‘the coffin'. It refers to the stage of observing the whole world through oneself."

Realizing that he was passing on the rules of the magic trick, Kang Yu-sik quietly focused on Li May's story.

"What is needed to achieve a coffin is a centripetal point. Observations that are not unified into one distort cognition."

Kang Yu-sik pondered for a moment at the explanation, and then made a strange expression.

‘Are you telling me to establish my own opinion?'

Why did it feel more like life advice than a magic trick?

This is because, as the magic core comes from the will, the magic of the future was more often affected by the user's image than by thorough calculations.

"How do you make a centripetal point?"

To Yusik Kang's question, Li May continued to turn her back to answer the question. She said,

"That's going to help this musaengwon mist."

"Is this fog?"

“The Fog of Invisibility completely cuts off the human being from the outside, which means that he can see himself without any interference.”

Kang Yu-sik looked around at the unusual explanation.

‘Isn't this the kind that blocks the five senses?'

He has never experienced it himself, but he has seen a guy who completely lost his taste due to a similar curse. Kang Yu-sik, who thought he was caught properly, frowned slightly and looked ahead.

"It may be a little difficult, but it is a step you must go through in order to deal with Baekryeon Hwanmong. So, choose here. Will you continue or will you quit?"

He replied calmly.

"I'll do it. It seems a little difficult, but shouldn't we be doing it properly since we've come this far?"

In response to Kang Yu-sik's answer, Li May paused her steps for a moment and then answered calmly.

"You are really amazing…"

"Yes? Well, that's it."

He hadn't even started yet, but when Kang Yu-sik bluntly replied to such a grand compliment, Li May shook her head.

"No. It's my first time, but just walking up to here without any blockage is amazing. But, you're going to have to go on to the next note… It's really a talent that transcends your imagination."

Li May opened her mouth again.

"If you feel like you can't do anything more, shout

"I give up."

“Ah… yes…”

"Then we will meet again at the entrance of Musaengwon."

Lee May, who had left those words, started walking forward again, and Kang Yu-sik followed her straight away.

He was very nervous about the huge situation to come, and the surrounding fog gradually changed. And finally, it got so thick that he couldn't even see.

Li May's back figure right in front of him got blurred out. He walked out of the mist to a beautiful flower garden with a faint mist.

Kang was surprised and bewildered at the dreamy landscape of a flower garden that brought to mind the commonly used word ‘Mureungdo Garden'. He must have heard that something was happening, but somehow he had just passed through the mist with Li May.

‘Is this the illusion that the fog shows?'

But to say that, the surrounding scenery or the back figure of Li Mei in front of him is too realistic.

When Kang Yoo-sik can't do this or that in a situation that he can't understand. Li May, who was standing in front of him, sighed.

"No matter how talented you are, it's not something that can be achieved overnight, so I was in too much of a hurry…"

A voice filled with concern. Convinced that it was a reality and not a fantasy, Kang Yu-sik looked at the situation for a moment before opening his mouth.

"I… Munju Baek-ryeon?"

Li Mei looked back at her, startled at Kang's call, and her eyes widened at the sight of her outside her fog.

Li Mei wants to say something but is struggling to figure out what to say. Kang was confused about what to say and then answered bluntly in response.

Li Mei forgot what to say and stared blankly. The first step took more than a month for even Li Mei, the 3rd generation of Baekryeon, who had defeated countless people and boasted the greatest talent of all time. But it was passed so easily by Kang You Sik by only 1 minute.
