2000 Years Of Magic History In My Head-Chapter 57: The Tower of Trials (2)
Chapter 57-The Tower of Trials (2)
Simbeop isn’t the power to handle mana artificially; it refers to a method that naturally assimilates and guides mana’s power and helps it establish itself in the human body. Not as physical power, but mental. In the case of people who study psychological methods first, they struggle to understand how to use them in abstract problem-solving.
The trick was to focus your mind and assimilate with the mana. The mana guides the way. Talent in this way requires an understanding of mana as being separate from the body. Mana that shone like stars moved within a certain system; Kang Min-hyuk had honed his mental method countless times, so he was used to finding a system in chaos. It was intuitive for him…the time he had clung to his teeth in the excruciating but rewarding challenge of the mental method gave Kang Min-hyuk a different way of thinking than others possessed.
Whenever the space-filled mana shifted into a certain system, it changed into a certain form. The current system was Yoo Seong-woo. It was as expected. When the mana was interlocked, it sprinkled countless grains of energy. It wasn’t really a meteor shower, but it looked just like one. As such, Kang Min-hyuk saw mana in its raw form. A wave rose, and a mountain of mana rose. It was a recurring system. Kang Min-hyuk learned it through observation.
Each form had a different system but collecting mana’s power at one point was the same. Just before the shape changed, there was a special system where mana of nature gathered. It was like psychology…to accept nature’s mana, Simbeop empties the body through a system like what was happening within the Tower.
“Wow.”
Kang Min-hyuk exhaled. With his psyche open wide, the new information commingled with his existing knowledge. The Guardian Gate’s Mana Spirit had a mysterious beginning and an extremely long history developed by the Guardian Gate’s ancestors to suit the fortified civilization. Even in the early days, the mana spirit method that deals with ‘spirit power’ was not recognized by people. At that time, mana’s system was not proven, and the abstract theory was difficult to engage in scientifically.
Eventually, though, the truth was revealed. A free-spirited mana system exists, and if we know it, we can use its power. The same is true now. Because Kang Min-hyuk was well-versed in the guardian gate’s deliberation, he saw mana’s flow and system. With it, he saw the possibility of creating a ‘new form of psychology.’ There was no guarantee of success. However, in this empty world, the only thing visible was the flow of mana, and Kang Min-hyuk is a person who does not hesitate to take on new challenges. Mana was managed slowly according to the rift flow, and he very carefully collected and concentrated the mana to a single point through the form of deep law.
