Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 890

890====================

True empty hometown

What should I do in this situation where I am trapped in the Taegeukgi?

I was secretly shocked.

‘Damn it! It’s the law of causality! Why does it just keep getting more and more complicated?’

Shouldn’t everything be smooth sailing, just like the Great Fortune? But somehow, after entering the heavens and competing with the Queen Mother of the West, it seemed like a series of hardships and trials. Lamenting wouldn’t change the situation, so I spoke to Black Bear.

“Is it just that I can’t use my powers? My psychic powers won’t disappear, right?”

[… That’s true… But… This space is absolute nothingness… There is no such thing as time… That’s more dangerous… ]

“Is it something like a permission slip?”

[It is different…. It renders all concepts that arise from perception into nothingness. Chaos and nothingness are completely different….]

“Um… Is there really no way out?”

[… … .]

The black bear became silent and shrank down. The black bear spoke as if he felt sorry.

[Mr. Baek Woong… The connection to divine power is gradually disappearing… I don’t think I’ll be able to see you again soon.]

“Disappearing? Why is it that only divine powers disappear so late?”

Now that I think about it, all the other abilities disappeared immediately, but why does Black Bear’s psychic power last for a while and then disappear? I was curious, so I asked Black Bear about it, and Black Bear said:

[I am a spirit born from the power of the Yin Spirit… The power of the Yin Spirit is the power that Jeon-wook used to change his original form of chaos by wearing a mask… Of course, all the Yin Spirits in this world are connected to Jeon-wook through causality…]

“… … !!”

[Even in this space of nothingness, the law of causality alone does not become nothingness… . Since the divine power is strong, causality is connected, and it becomes the driving force that sustains existence… . However, no matter how great the realm of the Holy Spirit, this space is too strong, so it will be difficult to continue… ]

In other words, since it was a power that had a causal relationship with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, it was able to survive in the Taegeukdo thanks to the power of the gods. The spiritual powers and internal energy that I had did not have such causal relationships, and were simply powers that I had acquired through training, so they seemed to have been completely sealed in the Taegeukdo.

‘Somehow… this seems like an important clue.’

It’s clearly a crisis situation now, but if I just keep my wits about me, I’ll survive. I’ve had this experience countless times, so I decided not to panic and to deal with it calmly.

‘Yeah! That’s it!’

I thought about it quickly and said to Heukung.

“I’m sorry, Black Bear. If you’re going to be sealed away and lose consciousness anyway, do something for me before that happens.”

It was a cruel plan, but it was inevitable. I had to do something before I was sealed away for eternity and lost my mind. There was a possibility that there would be no ‘death’ in this space, so suicide would be impossible. In this case, I couldn’t choose the means.

In other words, it seems like there is no other way.

[Of course, master…]

“Can you give it your all?”

At that moment, I shared my thoughts with Heuk-ung. Heuk-ung, who read my plan, seemed to smile faintly for a moment and nodded.

[If there is a next time… I want to cause trouble together again… .]

“That will happen.”

Woof

I reached out and grabbed the head of the black bear. And at the same time, I began to absorb the enormous yin power inside the black bear into myself, and began to release the refined energy. The original yin power was uselessly huge, and I couldn’t handle it properly, so I compressed it into the black bear and made everything more efficient, but I released that compression again.

Kookookookook!!

‘Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh… .’

As the blood vessels bulged all over my body, I was struck with excruciating pain due to the rapid expansion. However, I endured the power transmitted to me until the end, and at the same time, I held onto the black bear’s head tightly and muttered.

“I use the power of an apostle….”

The next moment, I shouted with a black light of evil emanating from my eyes.

“Go back to the past!!”

Pfft!!

At the same time, the black bear’s body disappeared, and the huge stream of yin qi that had been overflowing through my body suddenly stopped. It was as if it had disappeared in an instant, and the quiet space of nothingness around me began to distort.

Crackling… .

I could see cracks appearing here and there, as if a thin cloth was being torn. The great power of the yin shi ji was shaking and being ‘offered’ to some being, and I used that power to maximize my authority. And because the great being realized this belatedly, the space of the Taegeuk diagram was shaking greatly.

‘Did it work…?’

Crackle! Crackle!!

“… … .”

I was so weak that I just stared blankly at the black lightning flashing before my eyes. It was as if something was trying to tear the cloth with brute force. The black lightning soon transformed into the grip of black flame and began to writhe in space.

Woozijik!!

There was a sound of something breaking. However, the giant’s hand that appeared through the gap did not move any further, and soon a black wind seemed to suddenly blow through the gap.

Woohoo

What appeared was the ancient monarch of the ink shadows. He approached me a distance away and stood facing me, speaking as if growling.

[The causal relationship between you and me is connected, but since I do not know the reason, all that is left for you is hell.]

The opponent was unable to use his strength properly because he was forced into the divine-level Taegeukdo. Even divine beings have limits.

However, even though the opponent only brought an incarnation, I felt my stomach turn. This was because all power was sealed in this space, making it harder to withstand the presence of a god.

I spoke, barely holding back the blood welling up inside me.

“… Have you received the fresh sound of the spirit? Then, shouldn’t you help this poor apostle as much as you have received, Jeon-wook?”

[… … .]

Yes, that’s right.

The one summoned to this place is none other than the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Jeon Wook!

Since the power of the yin body is connected to Jeon-wook through the law of cause and effect, I decided to offer all my power of the yin body, symbolized by the black bear, to Jeon-wook! And as soon as Jeon-wook received the offering, the law of cause and effect was created, so he was able to interfere with the Taegeuk diagram of the divine art, but at the same time, he must have felt embarrassed.

As expected, Jeon-wook questioned me.

[I have never appointed someone like you as my apostle. And I have never taught you how to use my powers. And I have never left so many remnants of the power of the underworld. But you have violated all these taboos.]

“… … .”

[Do you think I am unaware of the turmoil occurring in heaven? I also know that you are deeply involved in this matter, so do not expect my mercy today.]

Ss …

As the light began to flow from Jeon-wook’s eyes, I felt a sense of crisis. This was because I felt that Jeon-wook was truly trying to catch me. Although it would be better to be reincarnated than to be trapped forever in this absolute nothingness called Taegeukdo, I decided to work hard to create a better situation.

“My lord, how wonderful it would be if Yeo-wa disappeared on this occasion.”

[… … .]

Then Jeon-wook turned his shadowy gaze toward me. It was a reaction of slight interest, and while he hesitated, I continued speaking.

“Think about it. Taking off [the mask] is a common interest of the Five Emperors, but even if the human world were to be destroyed and the opportunity to take off the mask arose, the Three Sovereigns, Nüwa, would oppose it to the end. I can say this with certainty.”

I can only say this. Because at the end of my life, I actually saw the quarrels and conflicts between the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors. The Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, although they looked similar, were rulers with completely different views and perspectives.

Jeon-wook softened his expression slightly as if he had accurately guessed what I was thinking. Then, after a while, he spoke.

[You guys can’t defeat the Queen Mother of the West.]

“You can’t know without trying. How can you be so certain?”

[The Queen Mother of the West is a special incarnation. She is an incarnation in which all the energy and destiny of the sun, moon, and stars were forged by Nüwa’s will, and who eventually obtained the heart of chaos from the origin of the world. None of us, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, could think of creating such a powerful incarnation, and we had no choice but to acknowledge Nüwa’s strong desire for domination.]

“… … .”

If Jeonwook could say something like that, it seemed as if Seowangmo was really a being created by Yeowa on purpose. It was enough to make me scared.

[Do you think I’m a fool? Did you expect me to readily agree to hitting a rock with an egg?]

Jeon-wook grumbled as if he was looking at an idiot, but I did not avoid his gaze and responded.

“Taigong Wang and everyone else are scared of the Queen Mother of the West. Well, who wouldn’t be scared when they don’t know the Queen Mother’s intentions and can only see the tips of her sharp nails? Even though there were victims in the end.”

[… What do you mean? A victim?]

“I’m talking about Yao and Shun.”

Perhaps because I said something unexpected, Jeon-wook suddenly shut his mouth. His attitude changed to one of wanting to listen to my story a little more. I almost laughed because I felt like Jeon-wook was like a neighborhood uncle, but I controlled my expression for the time being.

“You must know that Yao and Shun suddenly disappeared one day. And he was originally the Jade Emperor who ruled the world in secret, but his position suddenly became vacant. Also, isn’t there only one being in the heavens who can kill Yao and Shun’s incarnation without anyone knowing?”

In fact, the fact that my secretary Cheonam devoured Yao Shun is reflected in every past life, but I decided to attach the situation appropriately.

[That’s your speculation. There’s no way Yeo-wa would do something so reckless. If we fall out, she’ll suffer a huge loss.]

“You mean you have the ability but no motivation? But Yeo-wa has a strong motivation to do so.”

[Speak without hesitation.]

“Um… So… .”

Uh… what do I do now?

I can’t think of anything to say!

I somehow managed to drag it all the way here with the knowledge I had, but I couldn’t think of anything else to say. There was a limit to how much I could improvise, and if I talked any longer, Jeon-wook would quickly figure out the flaws in my words.

‘Let it be as it may be!’

I realized that this was a gamble and decided to say anything.

“She joined hands with the evil spirit. And in exchange for learning the secrets of the end through the stone tablet the evil spirit possessed, she agreed to weaken the power of the Five Emperors!”

[… … .]

Jeonwook slowly raised his hand.

[This is crude. I can’t listen to it anymore…]

“…yes?”

[I feel ashamed of myself for listening to such nonsense.]

omg?!

Wasn’t it the law of causality?

Wasn’t the world a place where even if I spoke like a piece of shit, it would be understood as if it were a piece of cake? Could it be that I had misunderstood the ‘causality of orientation’? When the situation suddenly worsened due to a slip of the tongue, my mind went blank because this had rarely happened before.

Jeon-wook’s hand slowly began to approach my head.

‘Ahhhh… No…!!’

As expected, it seemed that even if it was a Taegeuk, it was possible to use the power of the Avatar when it came to Jeon-wook. And that was the moment when Jeon-wook’s huge black flame palm grabbed my head.

Jeonwook suddenly said.

[You are buried in an even greater law of causality… . So… this is the order of the beginning… . So that is why you dared to invade heaven… .]

“… … .”

His head didn’t burn. Instead, incredible power began to pour in through the palm that Jeon-wook was holding.

Kugugugugu!!

[I changed my mind.]

Jeon Wook said with shining eyes.

[I am merciful, so I will grant you the power you have offered with interest. If you call yourself an apostle of my throne, try to defeat the Queen Mother of the West with that power. Prove that you can break a rock with an egg.]

“… … !!”

[However, this Taegeukdo is a sorcery that can even endanger the main body of the throne… Even if it is the throne, it cannot be taken out of here with just the power of the incarnation. So, I will use the causality I received as an offering to change the weave of the world, so you must overcome the situation with your own power.]

The next moment, everything before my eyes turned gray.

Phaaaah!!

“omg!”

When I came to my senses, I was not inside the Taegeukgi. Rather, I had not even entered the Primordial Heavenly Plate, and Zhuge Liulong, who had destroyed the barrier of the Samcheonggung Palace and was about to enter the Primordial Heavenly Plate, was just beginning to speak.

“… And in the human world, that world is called the Peach Blossom Spring.”

“Uh, um… .”

I quickly figured out the situation.

‘Jeonwook returned [the small shackle] instead!!’

Jeon-wook probably moved the [small shackles] of the world instead of tearing the Taegeukdo and taking it out himself, and turned back time to a long time before he was trapped in the Taegeukdo. It was impossible to evade the Taegeukdo in that way, but it seemed that receiving the power of the Great Spirit from me had a big impact.

If that were the case, not only Zhuge Liulong, but even Taigong Wang would not be able to recognize the time regression!

A situation where other people don’t know the future, but I know the future!

I realized that I had to make the most of this fleeting opportunity.

‘A surprise attack won’t work on Taekongwang. If you try to destroy the blood sphere and enter the Primordial Heavenly Plate, Taekongwang will be unexpectedly strong, so no matter what you do, you will definitely lose. As of now, there is no way to defeat Taekongwang’s Tashinbyeon and the divine art Taegeukdo.’

For now, my yin jiao power seemed to have been restored to its original state. However, since the Black Bear’s spiritization had completely disappeared, I would have to train again to create the Black Bear again. Even so, it was true that it was meaningless against an opponent like Taekong Wang, regardless of whether there was a Black Bear or not. This was because the yin jiao power was not very effective against any opponent who could seal them in the void space.

‘then….’

There is only one best strategy I can take in this situation!

“Zhuge Liu Long.”

“Why is that?”

I told him my best move.

“Wait, I’ll bring Xiang Yu.”
