Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 244

The Medicine Hall.

This location was created to heal injured disciples while fighting or who became ill while practicing.

A martial artist’s injury is not the same as the injury of the average person. As a result, the sects bearing the name of the great sect studied medicine independently and established the Medicine Hall.

In other words, Medicines Hall is an important location even if it is not visible in a prestigious sect.

Ah.

Except, of course, for Mount Hua.

Mount Hua’s Medicines Hall was, to put it mildly, a glutton for food, nothing more than an insectivorous carnivore that only ate rice.

Consider this.

Where should they fight in order to get hurt? On the other hand, Mount Hua has not stepped outside the gate since it was only half-closed. So the disciples were not harmed in any way.

Furthermore, excessive practice is required in order to be able to get injured, but on Mount Hua, each disciple was disappointed, so they did not do any training that would hurt their body at all. (Damn, even the author is roasting them like this. If it translated correctly tho.)

So all the Medicines Hall did was provide medicines for the overly healthy and strong disciples when they got an upset stomach.

Where would they put a Medicines Hall that has no patients and can’t even make pills?

As a result of the situation, Medicines Hall has been one of the main causes of stomach disease for Hyun Young, the Elder in charge of Mount Hua Sect’s finance and economy.

But!

There are days when the sun shines even through the rat hole, and the day has finally arrived when Mount Hua pours all of its hopes into the Medicines Hall.

A strange groan emanates from the bustling Medicines Hall.

“Ugh.”

“Arghh.”

“Do-Don’t rest. Never… I must never rest! Never!”

Yakdang ju Un Gak had bloodshot eyes.

As he stirred the pot with an iron spatula, many tendons protruded from his forearm.

But, in contrast to the intense forearm, the face was far from human. His thick beard was the face of the bandit, shouting out his brother to greet him, and the dark shadows under his eyes almost reached the tip of his chin.

The darkly faded face was difficult to see, and the sweat dried up to the point of empty salt.

Un Gak’s eyes were the only living parts of his face, which would seem to find a funeral director faster than a doctor.

“I’ll make it! Definitely!”

His eyes glowed strangely.

He couldn’t have appeared more haggard, but he was still as hot as he was at the start.

“The internal strength must not be weakened! You must keep the heat! Sect Leader! Elder!

“Ugh…….”

“I- I feel like I’m going to die.”

Hyun Jong and Hyun Sang’s misery was also no laughing matter.

They were almost skin and bone holding the pot.

Hyun Jong, who has dried up, groans and grabs the pot with his bare arms.

“How much longer can we go on like this?”

“There’s only one day left.”

“O- One more day…….”

Hyun Jong’s face was strangely distorted.

At this point, it resembles a bonfire rather than a human being.

He recovered his internal strength for a while after injecting internal force all day, taking advantage of the time when other elders took turns, and then immediately re-entering the work he had been doing for nine days.

The reason for not taking full shifts is simple: no one in Mount Hua can keep it all to themselves.

Other elders can no longer stand it and are forced to spit out their blood.

“Ugh…….”

A soft voice penetrated Hyun Jong’s ears, uttering an agonizing groan.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk What’s the big deal about this? ”

“…….”

With venom in their eyes, Hyun Jong and Hyun Sang turned their heads.

“Come on, people. ‘Your mouth!’ ”

“……Ah.”

When Hyun Jong opened his creaking mouth, Hyun Young poured porridge into it. Hyun Young came and said, “You can’t leave your seat, so you have to eat it like this,” and brought porridge every day.

“Sahyung, ah, do it.”

“I- It’s okay……”

“Keep your mouth open and be quiet!”

“Ugh.”

Hyun Sang also eats porridge poured by Hyun Young like a baby bird.

He was eating porridge like a child, full of sorrow, at an age when he had to feed the talents of his great grandchildren, not grandchildren.

But when he saw such Sahyung, Hyun Young didn’t seem to feel least sorry for him.

“Don’t say it’s difficult! Consider three years ago if you’re having trouble. It’s a thousand times better than walking down the street! ”

“……Yes!”

“That’s correct!”

Their almost extinguished eyes were filled with vigor once more.

Yes, no matter how difficult it is, this is a struggle for the future, comparable to the difficulties of traveling around collecting money because there is no grain to feed the disciples.

‘We have to succeed!’

‘I will finish the pill and die even if I die standing here!’

Although blood dripped down Hyun Sang’s nose, Hyun Young rubbed it with a cloth next to him as if he was used to it.

“Focus! Sect Leader! You have to focus! ”

Un Gak glares and stirs the pot, his eyes filled with madness as he moves the spatula at a constant speed that makes no difference.

“Another day! Only one more day! ”

“Yes! One of these days! ”

“Just one day! Just one day! ”

How can they possibly go another day when they’ve already been through nine?

The Elder of Mount Hua, who was willing to sacrifice everything for the sect’s future, began to raise their energy for Chaos Origin Pill without taking care of their bodies.

‘It will undoubtedly be something.’

Fortunately, the Chaos Origin Pill had been completed.

A white liquid is boiling in a luxurious pot made of Everlasting Metal.

The material that was already put in for the first time is nowhere to be found.

“Ummm. The scent is definitely becoming more potent.”

As time passed, the liquid in the pot began to emit a deep and pure scent, which obviously meant something.

The three men’s sharp eyes were fixed on the pot.

Seueueut.

Seueueut.

The sound of the iron spatula rubbing against the pot can be heard constantly, and after nine days of hearing it, they felt they could hear it in their dreams.

“Elder! You’re losing control! ”

“I’m going to do it!”

With a dark, dead face, Hyun Sang infuses internal strength into the pot, sweat dripping down his brow like rain.

Now that he’s at an advanced age, there’s nothing left to bury, not even his bones.

A calm voice came to their ears as they tried to bite their lips and harden their minds.

“Are you having difficulty?”

Three people turn their heads to one side at the same time.

The person who sat in the chair next to them and watched them without saying anything started chewing the beef jerky next to them.

“…….”

“…….”

‘Chung Myung ah,’

‘Of course,’

‘Right, you’ve done a lot for this, perhaps too much; we understand that you want to watch the Chaos Origin Pill refinement process finish, but……’

‘How come you’re eating here?’

Chung Myung smiled brightly as the Sect Leader and the Elders’ gazes were drawn to the jerky in his hand.

“Do you want some?”

“……No.”

He was such a sweet child, but he had the fatal flaw of not being sensible.

Hyun Jong opens his mouth after coughing awkwardly.

“Do you have to be there even though you don’t seem to have much to do?”

“Oh, I’d like to go, too.”

“Huh?”

The answer came from right next to them.

“No way!”

Hyun Young sighs and rolls his eyes.

“Knowing what kind of work this is, we can’t do it ourselves!”

“Why, once more…?

”

“The Sahyung and me. And that Un Gak, was there anything that went well with us? We rolled it all up and wasted money! ”

“…….”

Hyun Jong and Hyun Young were unable to open their mouths as they reflected on the painful history of the past.

“…… there’s nothing he can do here! ”

“Is amulet used for nothing? There’s a reason why houses like to buy things such as gold toads! It’s safe to have him by our side, so don’t even dream of kicking him out.”

‘Hey, dude.’

‘You are a Taoist.’

Does it make sense for a person who is unable to use a talisman to bring a person as a talisman?

He can’t shake the feeling that Mount Hua is going backwards at some point, but Hyun Jong doesn’t try to force Chung Myung out.

‘To be honest, I’m a little nervous as well.’

It’s such a big deal that they can’t deal with it on their own; after all, what if Chung Myung had an accident while their hands were tied up like this?

Being next to Chung Myung makes him feel more secure.

Munch, munch, munch, munch.

“…….”

Except it’s excruciatingly irritating.

Chung Myung frowns slightly as he chews beef jerky perfectly.

“Yakdangju nim, I think your hands have slowed down a bit.”

“I- Is that so?”

“Elders, your energy has weakened a little bit.”

“…a- am I?”

“If it’s unstable like that, the medicine’s effect, the effect, will suffer! I’ve gathered all of the necessary ingredients, but what if the medicine runs out? ”

“Ugh.”

Everything is true.

So it’s even more irritating because they seemed to understand why the heads of those who spoke the truth in the past were cut off first.

“One of these days! It’s only one day! Nothing should be left behind! With the desire to extract every last drop! ”

“Euuuh!”

It was the moment when everyone regained their motivation.

“Uh… huh? ”

Un Gak’s arm, which was holding the long iron spatula, started to shake.

“What’s the matter with this…… Hook! ”

His hands are trembling like he’s having a seizure, and he can’t even hold onto the spatula.

“N- No!”

Un Gak screamed in fear.

To make Chaos Origin Pill, one must constantly stir the materials at a constant speed and put the proper energy into the ingredients in the pot.

If this process fails, these ingredients will be discarded as expensive waste!

But no matter how hard he tried, his hand would no longer listen to him.

Un Gak, who recognized the situation immediately, yelled with a blue face.

“So, somebody! Please! ”

“What?”

“Sti- Stir this! I can’t do it anymore! ”

“Do you want me to contact a member of Medicine Hall?”

Un Gak violently shook his head when Hyun Young spoke urgently.

“Not them! You must be as good as your elders! I require someone with a lot of inner strength! ”

“So, what about me?”

“I- Are there any more elders?”

Isn’t it obvious that Hyun Young’s martial art is not that of an elder?

“Hurry up! Oh, no! The ingredients, at this rate! ”

Chung Myung finally rose from his seat in response to Un Gak’s desperate cry.

“Whatever!”

Then he dashed over to Un Gak to take the spatula.

“After only a few days of stirring, you’re exhausted!”

“N- No, that’s not it…….”

Un Gak, who was attempting to make an excuse, slumped down on the spot; as soon as the tension was released, the power was drained from the entire body, and consciousness progressed.

“Huh…….”

A slew of issues arose as one person began to unravel.

“Keuh.”

Thud.

“Aigoo! Sahyung! ”

Hyun Sang coughs up blood and falls backward.

Hyun Young freaked out and jumped at Hyun Sang; he had survived until now by instilling internal strength in Hyun Jong, but it now appears to be impossible.

“Sang Hyu- Hyun…… hmm? ”

Thud.

Hyun Jong takes a seat on the spot.

Sweat cascades down his body like a waterfall, replenishing his energy, but his stamina no longer supports him due to his age.

In confusion, Hyun Jong looked at the collapsed Hyun Sang and Hyun Jong.

‘Thi- Isn’t this supposed to happen….?’

There’s only one day left, and if everyone leaves, what will happen to the Chaos Origin Pill? Is this the end?

It happened just as Hyun Young was about to give up.

“Oh! Really! ”

A strange sight caught his attention.

“I’d rather die than endure pain! I really am! ”

Chung Myung yelled and grabbed the edge of the pot with one hand, then the spatula with the other, and began to stir furiously.

“How did I obtain this? In death, there is no failure! ”

When Hyun Young opened his eyes, he saw several hands stretching out from behind Chung Myung’s back, blowing energy into the pot with one hand and stirring the spatula with the other.

He threw the Sahyung away and dashed to Chung Myung.

“Chu- Chung Myung, are you all right?”

“Even if it’s not okay, I’ll make it okay!”

Yes, that’s right! That’s our Chung Myung!”

“Stay away for a second.”

“Ok!”

Hyun Young immediately took a step back. He was the one who didn’t even ask why Chung Myung said what he said.

“Haap!”

Chung Myung boosted his spirits as much as he could with a strong shout.

The ingredients in the pot capture his feelings.

They appear to be completely melted materials on the surface, but Chung Myung noticed the subtle disturbances. Some places are overcrowded, while others are underserved. These energies must be perfectly balanced.

That could be the key to Chaos Origin Pill.

“Come on. Since it’s like this! Let’s do it properly!”

What if the Chaos Origin Pull of Immortal Medicine is the crystal of perfect harmony?

‘Put my energy into it.’

What would happen if you combined the clearest energy in the world with the most perfect harmony?

Chung Myung gradually entered a trance and began to stir the pot.

And it was at that precise moment that Hyun Jong saw clearly.

Chung Myung’s energy shines brilliantly in five colors from his back.

“…….”

‘Ah, Chung Myung. ‘Be gentle with yourself.’

‘At this rate, you’ll be the first to ascend.’
