Chapter 60: Chapter 60- Yoon-Jae’s Twin Innate Dharma
As if knowing this would happen, Yoon-Jae tried to dodge the whip, but it was just too fast for him.
With a loud swoosh and then a snap, the whip connected with Yoon-Jae’s back.
The scream that followed was wretched, and Sol couldn’t help but feel a shiver go down his spine.
"Master, how can you do this to your disciple?! What would people think if they saw this?!"
Yoon-Jae cried mournfully as he visibly struggled to lift himself off the ground, but that one whip proved to be too vicious.
Seeing his disciple’s melodramatic performance, Young-Hwa sent the whip flying out again.
"Ah, no wait! Master, I’m sorry! I won’t curse or play pranks again. I won’t disobey you, just don’t whip me again!"
Yoon-Jae immediately jumped up from the ground and tried to escape. However, the whip easily caught up to him and made a snapping sound as it connected with his back once more.
Instead of crying out like the first time, Yoon-Jae gritted his teeth and glared at Young-Hwa before he reluctantly sat cross-legged and began cultivating.
When Sol saw this, he realized the whip wasn’t ordinary. However, when the old man saw this, he asked.
"Brother, what did you do to this boy?"
Hearing his Master’s words, Sol was confused, and he looked towards Young-Hwa.
"Eldest brother, why do you make it sound like that? And brat, never trust this idiot disciple of mine, or else you will be played to death by him. Any cultivator would wish they got even one lash of this whip."
Young-Hwa then flicked his wrist, and the whip released a snapping sound as it hit the upper thigh of Sol’s right leg.
Sol winced, but soon after he was surprised to feel a warm energy seeping into his body and heading for one of his acupoints in his right leg. He hurriedly circulated his cultivation method and supported this energy as it opened his acupoint.
After a few breaths of time, Sol was dumbfounded to realize this acupoint was halfway from opening!
Currently, he had already opened all the acupoints in his left leg and had started on his right. But the time between opening the acupoints in his left leg was getting longer and longer, even several days weren’t enough to open one. In reality, that was fast compared to others in the Mortal Realm, but for Sol, he just knew it would take a long while to fully open them before starting on his arms.
However, this notion all changed, as this whip could allow him to almost open one in an instant! Why didn’t his Master use this method during his training?
Sol stared at Yoon-Jae with a bit of envy, and despite his father’s teachings not to be jealous of others, he couldn’t help it!
But Young-Hwa suddenly said.
"Don’t be so envious brat, you have a Wood-type Innate Dharma so prolonged use of this whip will be detrimental to your future cultivation. Plus, this is more of a curse than a benefit to Yoon-Jae because due to his Ice Spirit Constitution, his meridians and acupoints are covered in a layer of frost. If he were to use normal means to cultivate, even after hundreds of years he might not open all of the acupoints in his body. This whip is made from high-quality materials with a fire attribute, it’s to help defrost his meridians and acupoints so he can cultivate normally."
Sol hearing that had his envious gaze turned into one of extreme pity.
’Doesn’t that mean Yoon-Jae has to be whipped repeatedly so he can cultivate?’
Sol then recalled the torturous training his Master made him go through and thought that perhaps he should be grateful that his Master hadn’t used a whip. It wasn’t that it would be more physically painful, but rather the psychological pain of being whipped like a mule would make him die of shame.
Yoon-Jae suddenly opened his eyes and met Sol’s gaze. They gave each other knowingly bitter smiles, recognizing that they shared similar traumas.
The old man thought about his brother’s words before he frowned and asked.
"I don’t understand. Why did you take on a disciple with the Ice Spirit Constitution? I know it is rare for a male to have this constitution, but you specialize in Alchemy, all your techniques are fire and wood base."
Young-Hwa smiled when he heard that, then said.
"Then I guess we both had to settle with the fact that the disciples we had in mind don’t exist. But who are we to complain? Since you still chose this boy as your disciple even though he awakened a Wood-type Innate Dharma then he must have shown other outstanding qualities."
After saying this, Young-Hwa turned to Yoon-Jae and said.
"Show them your Innate Dharmas."
"Innate Dharmas? Does that mean you have two?!"
Sol looked at Yoon-Jae and said in shock.
Yoon-Jae smirked at his reaction before he closed his eyes and called forth his first Innate Dharma.
A cry from a bird echoed out in the hall almost deafening Sol.
Little Zeel, who was lazily sitting in Sol’s lap, felt all the hair on his body stand on end, and his heart began to pound with nervousness. Though this went unnoticed by Sol. He was too busy watching the projection of a majestic blue bird materializing behind Yoon-Jae.
"An Ice Phoenix..."
Sol heard his Master mutter next to him.
However, what happened next caused the old man’s expression to change to one of shock.
Another bird cry could be heard before a red bird was seen materializing behind Yoon-Jae.
"This is—He has a Fire Phoenix as well?!"
The old man had never seen someone with this type of twin Innate Dharma before. Not only were they Divine Beasts but they could be called Elemental Divine Beasts. A natural mix of an Elemental Innate Dharma and a Divine Beast Innate Dharma.
However, what truly shocked him was that this brat had awakened two different species of the Divine Phoenix lineage that had opposing elements!
But suddenly, he noticed a problem. As the Fire and Ice Phoenix flew around the pavilion hall, he saw that the Ice Phoenix was significantly longer than the Fire Phoenix.
"No wonder this child’s appearance looks so feminine. Are you having him cultivate Fire-type Aether to balance out his Ice Element?"
Young-Hwa nodded but also added.
"I created a cultivation method that allows him to cultivate both Fire and Ice-type Aether. It would be a waste to ignore half of his talents. He’ll just have to live with his feminine looks."
Yoon-Jae was heard snorting at that, but Young-Hwa commented.
"You willingly agreed to become my disciple knowing this would happen. I don’t do takebacks!"
Yoon-Jae grew angry and said aggrieved.
"You’re too shameless! You purposely downplayed the consequences of cultivating this technique and tricked me into becoming your disciple!"
"*Tsk...* You say that, but my disciple, I know what you’ve been doing. You’ve been doing those sinister pranks and mentally scarring those poor kids from the other Pavilions."
Yoon-Jae huffed and retorted.
"They had it coming! I didn’t tell them not to believe me when I say I was a boy."
Young-Hwa shook his head before he ignored Yoon-Jae and said to Sol.
"Brat, go ahead and show me you’re Innate Dharma."
Sol glanced at his Master who nodded. Getting confirmation, he stirred his Innate Dharma awake. A green light then emanated from him and encapsulated the entire hall as he called it forth.
Suddenly, the two Divine Phoenixes that were flying overhead immediately retreated.
Yoon-Jae, upon seeing this, stared intently at Sol’s Innate Dharma. However, after the green light faded and he saw that it was just a seedling, he was dumbfounded.
Yoon-Jae couldn’t help but glare at his two Innate Dharmas for retreating because of this thing.
"Ha-ha, it’s actually a seedling. Perhaps I should have this boy as my disciple instead. Brother, do you want to trade disciples?"
"No!"
"No!"
Two shouts immediately echoed out simultaneously.
