[TS] Became a Peach Saint – Chapter 310

Through the Dragon and Phoenix Gathering, a total of 384 “Undefeated in Combat” titles were obtained.

Among them, 100 were used to access the Hwanhwan Mansang Library, 30 were used for Jeon Ho’s weapon, and 25 were used for Summoning Pills.

The remaining 229 were exchanged for 22 Gold Ingots and three roots of Hundred-Year Ginseng worth 3 “Undefeated in Combat” titles each.

Lastly, after treating the Nangong clan, I received 10 Gold Ingots from the Main Leader Grandfather.

So, in the end, 33 Gold Ingots worth 1 billion won each are now resting in the storage space.

If I infuse them with willpower, the exchange will be completed in an instant.

*Ding!*

Focusing my spirit, the Gold Ingots in the storage space disappear, and money starts pouring in.

───

[Player Points: 0P]

[Remaining Amount: 32.4 billion 3,111,000 won]

[Remaining Amount: 89 Gold 46 Silver]

[Remaining Amount: 11 Gold 27 Silver 974 Copper]

───

*Click, click.*

“Huu— What’s this?”

While worrying about the insufficient amount, I remembered giving two Gold Ingots to Jeon Ho.

If that’s the case, the calculation is accurate.

Next, the main skill.

*Ding!*

[Price: 1.024 billion won]

───

Looking at the price, my fingers feel stiff.

Just five clicks, and it’s bankruptcy-level spending.

But for now, there’s nothing better than this.

From strength to flexibility.

And even the top-tier stamina abilities supported by the gods are attached.

Even excluding the still-mysterious abilities like Destructive Force and Explosive Force, there’s plenty of useful stuff.

The Heavenly Strength, which is the power of the Benevolent King Vajra. And the Golden Strength for defense.

The Regeneration from the Great Python Mahura.

The Yang Strength, which is the agility of the Heavenly Paradise Garuda.

Except for what Asura gave, it’s all excellent.

The Stamina skill, which lightly enhances overall physical abilities, has evolved repeatedly and reached the level of Power (剛力).

“Huu—”

“You were talking big earlier, what are you doing now?”

While I was looking at the skill, Son Goku, who had quickly moved away, slowly approached.

“I’m about to do it now.”

One purchase costs 1.024 billion won.

The remaining money is about 31.2 billion.

Enough for exactly five clicks.

“That Ilwolshinjang of yours…”

“Master, just a moment.”

I’m sorry for cutting off Son Goku, but this is an important moment.

*Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!*

[Remaining Amount: 32.4 billion 3,111,000 won]

▼

[Remaining Amount: 687,110,000 won]

In just five clicks, 1 billion won turned into 32 billion.

“Damn. The price is dizzying.”

With Power now at its peak, the first step into higher abilities has been taken.

He ran, and the muscles he had been building from the start were filled with stars.

*Crack.*

When he clenched his fist, a tremendous force swirled within.

I don’t know how much stronger he’s gotten, but it seems like he’s going to have a tough time controlling his strength again.

*Sigh.*

“Where are you going?”

As I walked forward, smoking a cigarette, Son Goku followed behind, shuffling along.

“Gotta grab the Ruyi Jingu Bang.”

*Crunch.*

The moment I grabbed the Ruyi Jingu Bang, which was deeply embedded in the ground, and applied force, it was pulled out with the sound of tree roots snapping.

“Hmm… this is a problem.”

“Why?”

“The Ruyi Jingu Bang feels too light now.”

The once heavy and satisfying staff now felt like a mere tree branch.

*Whoosh!*

When I lightly swung the staff, the sound of air being split echoed through the void.

“The Ruyi Jingu Bang is light now?”

“Yeah.”

“You’re human. How? Why?”

“I have my own way of getting stronger. My own study, or you could call it a path.”

Perhaps, along with the strengthening of higher powers like divine energy, it had explosively grown stronger, unlike before.

If not, it’s an unprecedented level of strength that can’t be explained.

“So your path is just getting stupidly strong?”

“Yeah.”

“The Buddha would be clutching his head.”

The increase in strength is just one part; the main thing is the overall improvement in physical abilities, but hey, good is good.

“Look, Master. Let’s say there’s a technique where you throw rocks.”

Son Goku made a weird face and reluctantly nodded.

“Wouldn’t it be better if I just threw it harder than that? Then I wouldn’t need to learn the technique.”

“Oh ho! Now that you mention it, that makes sense. Sounds plausible, huh?”

“Right? Makes sense, doesn’t it?”

“It makes sense, but what makes more sense is you getting beaten up, you brat!”

*Whack!*

Son Goku slapped my back with his palm.

“Ow! That hurts, Master!”

“I hit you to make it hurt. Are you really going to keep fighting recklessly? I told you, you’ll ruin your body.”

“My defense is up, so why does it still hurt?!”

“Keep it up, huh?”

My back felt like it was on fire.

“Ugh…! It hurts, Master.”

*Whoosh! Whoosh!*

“Eek! Don’t swing the Ruyi Jingu Bang like that!”

“My Ruyi Jingu Bang has become all flimsy!!”

“Hey, calm down…!”

*Whoosh!*

“Kyaaak!”

Without realizing it, I swung the staff, and Son Goku flipped over, bending his back to dodge.

“Okay, okay. Calm down. Does it hurt here?”

Son Goku quickly approached, grabbed my arm, and started rubbing my back.

“Number five.”

“Number five here?”

“Yeah.”

Son Goku moved his hand and continued rubbing my back.

“Sorry. I hit you lightly, but does it hurt a lot?”

“Yeah.”

“Ahem! You don’t even blink when your arm falls off, but you’re whining now.”

The bigger problem than my back hurting is that the satisfying weight of the Ruyi Jingu Bang is completely gone.

I’ve reached level 10 in stamina and switched to strength.

A gamer’s intuition tells me that when I reach level 10 in strength, it’ll change again.

When that happens, it’ll become even lighter.

“I’m doomed. What do I do with my Ruyi Jingu Bang?”

“Is it that bad? Isn’t it good if it gets lighter?”

“No. I hate it being flimsy.”

“Is that so? Hmm…”

Son Goku continued to ponder while still rubbing my back.

A warm feeling spreads through my heart as a sense of apology is conveyed through the touch.

“Master, do you know any blacksmiths?”

“There are quite a few blacksmiths. But if you want to handle the Ruyi Jingu Bang, an ordinary blacksmith won’t do.”

“Then?”

“The Ruyi Jingu Bang was made by a guy named Daode among the Celestial Venerables. But even he couldn’t properly handle the Divine Iron, so he just made it into a staff shape.”

It’s convenient to absorb it into the Ilwolshinjang, which has infinite durability and absorption abilities.

However, there’s also the downside that it becomes strongly bound and you have to keep using the flexible Ruyi Jingu Bang.

If you’re not going to keep using it like this, you’ll need to find a blacksmith for repairs.

“Should I just feed it to the Ilwolshinjang?”

“Ah! You have the Ilwolshinjang.”

“Yeah. Baekseol’s mother is the Moon Goddess. She gave it to me, saying to take good care of Baekseol.”

“Wait, really? That friend… no, how well did you have to take care of her to get the Ilwolshinjang? Do you know what kind of item that is?”

“No idea?”

Son Goku’s hand, which was patting my back, stops.

I turn around and see him making a dumbfounded expression.

“It’s an old story. Just know that a war broke out over that one thing.”

“Huh?”

Ding!

“It’s a growth-type weapon, but is it really that? It seems like it’s missing its core.”

“Didn’t you hear anything?”

“I fed it two things. My inner armor and a hair tie.”

“The armor is one thing, but what’s with the hair tie?”

“This. The hair tie I often wear.”

Son Goku’s gaze turns to my head.

“That was special? No wonder I didn’t feel anything, it was absorbed by the Ilwolshinjang.”

“This was given by Baekseol’s father.”

「Give it!」

「《The majestic sun sheds tears of blood》」

「《The majestic sun says this is why raising kids is pointless…》」

Thinking about it, it seems like his own will wasn’t reflected at all.

“Hmm… So it wasn’t given, but taken by Baekseol? Anyway, yeah.”

Ding!

───

The Divine Blessing was useful when I almost died to Zeus.

“Using this increases my strength by 20 times permanently.”

“Did you use that when we first met and you pulled out the Ruyi Jingu Bang?”

“Busted.”

Son Goku looks at me like he’s been scammed.

“But I hardly use it. I didn’t use it when I fought with Master earlier. I think I haven’t used it at all since I started training with Hercules.”

“What’s that tied around your head now?”

“It’s just a hair tie. I can turn it on and off at will.”

He still looks aggrieved, his eyes glazed over.

“Stop looking at me like that and introduce me to a blacksmith. I need to overhaul the Ruyi Jingu Bang while I’m at it.”

“Furnace.”

“Can old man Jin handle it?”

“Where is he?”

Son Goku shrugs his shoulders.

“Dunno.”

“I feel like cracking some chestnuts.”

Looks like I’ll have to put in some legwork.

***

As I step into the elevator of the Silver Wings Guild building, I see the familiar bespectacled guy.

“Hello, Saintess.”

“Yes, hello.”

The bespectacled uniformed man gives a slight nod.

“Captain Bitna seems to be in a bad mood today.”

“Huh? Why’s that?”

“Ever since she came back from the association meeting, she’s been like that.”

“I see.”

Ding!

After a brief conversation, the elevator arrives.

“I’ll go cheer her up.”

“Thank you.”

He doesn’t get off, so it seems he wanted to relay that message to me.

Leaving him behind, I walk a bit and soon see Yu Bitna’s office.

“Bitna~ss! Introduce me to the blacksmith!”

Bam! Crash!

The office door I kicked flies off, smashing into the guild building wall.

Thanks to that, warm sunlight pours down on Yu Bitna, who was reading a book.

Turns out, she’s reading the martial arts book I gave her last time.

“Oh~! You look so holy right now. Amen.”

“……”

“Living up to your nickname.”

I give Yu Bitna a thumbs-up, and a suffocating aura bursts out from her.

“Uh, well… I’m having trouble controlling my strength today?”

“……”

“Sorry.”

Splat.

“Bitna, my teeth are chattering from the cold. I’m a Saintess, want me to heal you?”

“Shut it.”

“Okay.”

In times like this, it’s best to seek out wise people for advice.

“Baekseol, Danpung, let’s go.”

“Okay!”

“Peet!”

“Oh, right. Can I borrow the helicopter later?”

“Please stay on it forever.”

“I’ll think about it if you mount a Hellfire missile on it.”

“Get out!!”

Yu Bitna’s hysterical shout echoes through the Silver Wings Guild building.

“Gasp~ss. Bitna~ss. Angry~ss.”

“Get out, I said!”

“Running away~ss.”

“Go!”

“Peet!”

“Hehehe. Let’s bounce.”

***

“Ah, and…”

“What now?!”

“I need to earn money to learn a new skill. Hook me up with a juicy dungeon, Bitnaemon.”

Grind.

“Saintess Beam!”

**〈Heal〉**

A slight smile appears on Yu Bitna’s stiff face.

“Stop being childish and hurry back.”

“Yup. Bye-bye.”
