Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 879



Only Noblemtl

879====================

True empty hometown

I thought about what I should do until the scribes finished the rest of the preparations. It probably wouldn’t take long to prepare, so it would be pointless to train hard in martial arts in this short period of time. I thought about what I had left to do, and then suddenly remembered that I had planned to meet the White Lotus Sect leader again, so I asked Mangryang what I should do.

Mangryang answered immediately.

“It’s difficult to contact the White Lotus Sect leader right now. You don’t have to think about it.”

“Since there is a causal law of orientation, it doesn’t matter, right?”

“Keep in mind that we are currently working with our arch-rival, Jegal Yu-ryong. It is burdensome to just work with him, so if we add another unfamiliar color… it will be unmanageable when the law of causality is broken.”

” ……”

I felt something strange from Mangryang’s words.

‘I can’t handle it…’

That would mean that there is a limit to the causality of the incense. And if we bring the White Lotus Sect leader to our side, we won’t be able to handle the consequences later. But it could also mean that we can do something about Zhuge Liulong at the moment. I agreed with Mangryang’s words and said.

“Even so, isn’t there something I can do now? I want to be of some help.”

“Go to Miho and learn how to use the power of Amaterasu.”

” ah!”

“I don’t know how to operate it properly yet, so Miho, who is a natural born demon, might be able to help me.”

I asked Miho to teach me how to use Amaterasu’s power as advised by Mangryang. After listening to me, Miho said:

“Can’t you use Amaterasu’s power as if you were already handling the demonic powers? Then I have nothing more to teach you.”

I glanced at Miho. I had given her the obsidian before, but at that time, Seimei had set up a barrier that blocked everything nearby, so the probability of my information leaking to the Queen Mother of the West was low, and now that I had awakened as a god of magic, it was virtually nonexistent.

“But if Mangryang said something like that, then he must have something to teach you.”

“Hmm… I’d like to feel that power myself for a moment.”

Dubthuk

I held Miho’s hand. I then invoked the power of Amaterasu through my hand, and that power soon flowed into Miho. Miho closed her eyes for a moment, felt the power, and then muttered.

“That’s what you say. Is Mangryang really a genius? How can a human think of something that even I, a god, couldn’t think of…”

“What words?”

“Baek Woong. Amaterasu’s power is similar to the power of the Yin Divine Intelligence, but it is completely different. It is not the same divine power. I will explain the difference now.”

Miho crossed her arms and began to explain.

“If we were to use an analogy, that power is the corpse of a god. The spirit and body of the god Amaterasu has already departed to a distant dimension, but the dead body containing the divine power remains, and half of it has come to be yours. This is very different from the power of the yin shi, because the power of the yin shi is nothing more than a trace of a god. It cannot be compared to the power of Amaterasu.”

“The mark of God?”

“Yes. For example, let’s say that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Jeon-uk, was in the same situation as Amaterasu, died, and his spirit was confined somewhere else. In that case, if you obtain Jeon-uk’s remaining body, it would be the same situation as now, but do you think the power you would obtain in that case would be the power of the yin jiao?”

” ……”

That’s an unexpected case.

I thought about it carefully and then said.

“Of course not? Jeon-wook’s divine power is the power of the yin jiao…”

“No. The power you gain then is the power of the yin qi, but it is not the power of the yin qi. It is something more than that, and it is divinity. This is because the concentration of divinity is extremely low in the power of the yin qi that you have now, but the power you gain from Jeon Wook’s corpse is extremely high in divinity, so it is condensed.”

“What are you talking about? I don’t quite understand. Divinity…”

“Hmm… Didn’t Master Mangryang say something like that?”

Miho continued speaking.

“If you want to attain the realm of chaos, emptiness, and fusion and fight on equal terms with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors who are close to the pinnacle of the world, you must train for at least tens of thousands of years.”

” ah.”

Now that I think about it, the cat said something like that.

[Cultivating the realm of fusion means cultivating the divine nature of chaos in a mortal body and becoming a god. It will take at least several hundred years, and it will take several thousand years before it will be useful even in the world of the Divine Seat.]

[ If you want to fight on equal terms with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors who are close to the top of the world, you would need to train for at least tens of thousands of years.]

It happened in a past life.

The realm of the White Lotus Sect’s own, the fusion of chaos and the Great Void – to learn about it, I went to Wang Su-in with Lee Cheong-woon and traveled to various places, and eventually found out information by giving snacks to Monk Mangryang. At that time, Monk Mangryang explained in detail what the realm of fusion was like, and told me that if I cultivated, I could refine my chaos divinity and reach the realm of a god.

As I was recalling that memory, Miho said.

“Becoming a god by polishing chaos is the same as divinity condensing and gaining divine status. I am now a god, and this is possible because I possess condensed divinity.”

“The divinity is condensed?”

“Shall we say that it is an extremely accumulated and condensed crystallization of chaos…? It is also a prerequisite for becoming a cosmically powerful being. However, the Yin power is nothing more than a trace of a god, and the Yin power that you have obtained and collected is also the remnants of power that Jeon-wook left around the world as a pastime. That alone would make you close to invincible in the human world, but it is absolutely insufficient to condense divinity and super-transform it.”

“Hmm…”

“That’s probably why Monk Mangryang used the expression tens of thousands of years. Just as stalactites in a cave gradually grow longer over many years, it requires a huge amount of time and accumulation. It’s said to be tens of thousands of years, but considering Jeonwook’s level, it could be hundreds of thousands of years or even millions of years.”

I think I know something.

According to Cheon Woo-jin’s prediction, it would take about two hundred years to develop the power of the psychic powers to the highest level by human standards, but even if you actually reach the level of great power, you cannot be considered a god. Although it may be powerful, it is only of great help in awakening magic and spiritual communication, and it cannot even be compared to the realm of a god.

I understood Miho’s words, thought about it carefully, and then said.

“Then, does that mean that Amaterasu’s power, unlike the power of the yin yang, is a pure divine power that remains, so the divinity has already been condensed and remains? Is it a pure power with high density?”

“Yes.”

“But… it’s very weak for something like that. Even compared to the psychic power I have now, it’s not that strong.”

This is exactly what I was wondering about. Even if Amaterasu’s power was a much purer and more powerful essence than the meager power of the yin jinx I usually get from the statue of Jeon-wook, the power I got from Seimei was not much stronger than the power of the yin jinx I currently possessed. This was strange, considering that it was a power that was condensed with divinity.

Then Miho said.

“Amaterasu is an ancient goddess who has already died and is going through a long resurrection period that lasts tens of thousands of years. She cannot even be compared to the current prime of Jeon-uk. Furthermore, she must have lost a lot of her power when she passed to the human Seimei, and Seimei must have used most of that power on the water seal. Isn’t it natural that she received it torn in half again when she had lost over 90% of her power?”

“Hmm…”

“That’s why Seimei judged that even if the absolute amount is insufficient, the purity of the power is high, so if you can accumulate it repeatedly, it will be of great benefit.”

“Is that what you meant?”

“However, Baek Woong, if you were to use that power right now, it would be a different story. Using that power like normal psychic power or demonic power would be nothing more than a waste.”

“You’re saying I shouldn’t use it like a magic spell? Then how should I use it?”

“Now, look carefully… this thing called divinity.”

Woohoo

Suddenly, Miho’s eyes turned golden, and her tail popped out and turned golden as well. I flinched as I saw Miho’s golden transformation before, and Miho stretched her hands into the air with her golden eyes flashing.

Wow

The space itself was caught in Miho’s hand and then torn apart. The spherical chaos bounced out, shining like water droplets.

It was a power commonly used by the gods, and Miho tore the space apart, then inserted her hand into it, widening the crack even further. After a while, she removed her hand and the space returned to its original state.

“If you use it well, you can tear dimensions apart.”

Miho said after showing a series of processes.

“Those who have acquired divinity will gain the ability to manipulate space and time. They can tear dimensions apart or temporarily change the flow of space and time. Amaterasu’s power is the divinity of a noble ancient god, so it should be used in this way.”

“……!!”

“You may have seen that even powerful demon lords and the Eight Guardians fight in a similar manner, although not to the extent of [the old ruler]. They also have a large amount of chaos, so they should be able to do the basics.”

Is that possible?!

‘Where am I…’

I looked at Miho with surprised eyes, and then I gathered the power of Amaterasu into my hand and tried to tear the dimension like Miho. However, nothing happened, and when my hand just waved in the air, Miho said:

“The Master of Mangryang said, “You have to realize chaos like a fish swimming in water. Likewise, in order to properly use that power, you need to learn how to properly use the divinity within chaos.”

“Miho! Can you teach me?”

“That’s why Mangryang sent you to Bonnyeo.”

Miho answered as if nothing had happened, but then hesitated.

” … But even so, you are still human. Unlike the main woman who became a god and ascended to the ranks of the gods, your exposure to chaos is completely different… I don’t know if you’ll be able to get used to it.”

“What should I do?”

If you don’t do it, nothing will change.

You have no choice but to try something.

“Okay. Let’s do it then.”

I began to work tirelessly to learn how to manipulate space and time by drawing out the divinity of Amaterasu from Miho. However, as Miho said, learning how to use this power that was close to a ‘feel’ was by no means easy, and I kept failing. I continued to study for three days and nights, but it didn’t work out, and both of us were getting tired.

Miho said strangely.

“If the law of causality is in effect, then this can’t be happening…? If you gain the ability to manipulate space and time, it will definitely be of great help in conquering the heavens, but I don’t understand why fate doesn’t help you.”

” ……”

“Or perhaps it is because attaining divinity itself is subordinate to a greater destiny.”

“Miho, I’m sorry. I have no talent…”

“It’s not a talent issue, so don’t worry. It was close to impossible to begin with. It was a strange thing to learn, but I just tried it, believing in the law of causality. Humans are originally incapable of learning.”

That was the time.

Something suddenly occurred to me and I told Miho.

“Miho. Can’t we change Amaterasu’s power into Yin Shin’s power?”

” … what?”

“If it’s a power that humans can’t use properly anyway, wouldn’t it be better to change it into yin qi and develop yin qi quickly?”

” ……”

“Oh, that won’t work.”

Miho made a troubled expression at my words. Then she said.

“No, that’s a good idea. But I can’t help you with that alone, so let’s go to Seimei.”

Paat

We explained the whole story to Seimei. Then Seimei nodded.

“I guess I can do it.”

“Is it possible?”

“We will mobilize the power of the Tsuchimikado clan to prepare the altar and the ritual. However, I believe that considerable pain will follow, so prepare yourself mentally.”

“I’m ready.”

After Seimei had finished preparing for a whole day, I went up to the altar. Then, while Miho and Seimei led the ritual, I sat cross-legged in the center of the Tai Chi with the yin-yang symbol drawn on it, and began to draw out the power of the yin god and the power of Amaterasu at the same time.

Gooooooo

Amidst the gloomy spells ringing out from all directions, I felt the power of Amaterasu, which could be called yang, writhing and thrashing violently. The power of the divine being was being replaced by another type of authority, the power of the yin shin ji , and I began to feel a backlash, and my body twisted in pain as if my whole body was being stabbed with needles.

I gritted my teeth as sweat dripped down my face.

‘There’s no time. I have to get stronger quickly!’

I can’t go as far as to resort to the method of non-humanity, but I must not be picky about the means and methods within the possible range! While I was enduring the pain that felt like my tongue was going to snap, and while I was sitting cross-legged until the very end, I suddenly felt as if a vision of a goddess appeared before my eyes.

At that moment, when time and space seemed to have stopped, the goddess spoke to me. Her face was completely invisible because of the brilliant halo behind her head, but I could immediately tell that she was an orphaned and beautiful being.

[ My name is Amaterasu. I am the one who controls the evil of the [Ruler].]

Amaterasu’s lips slowly opened.

[The fabric of the universe has gone awry. It has become a battlefield where great chaos and great order collide, and it can no longer be resolved by human power… I want to know what you want.]

I responded with the same will in that momentary world.

[What I want is to kill all the gods.]

[Killing God… How interesting.]

[For that, I will change your power into the power of the yin yang.]

[ Haha… The axes of order and chaos are about to collide… Even when things have gotten this far, you’re still talking about such trivial things… I really can’t figure out what kind of being you are.]

[ ……?]

[You seek the good within yourself, but you are chaos itself, unable to distinguish between good and evil… Our ancient gods will watch your every move.]

Paat

The next moment, the illusion of Amaterasu disappeared and I felt all of her power melting into me. The enormous power that had been pulsing like an active volcano was instantly transformed into the yin of the yin power, and the amount was enormous.

“……!!”

Oh my god, what the heck is this amount?

Amaterasu’s power and the power of the yin yang seemed to be of similar levels, but how could there be such a change…!!

‘Is it because of the density?!’

It seemed to be much stronger when transformed due to the density of the divine. I couldn’t measure the amount of this power, so I just held my breath and sat cross-legged, accepting the power. My internal energy wasn’t accumulating, but I felt the spiritual quality inside me rising rapidly.

Finally, when the power absorption was over, I realized one thing.

‘ it’s okay.’

I feel it.

The power of the Yin God has reached its peak.
