Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 909



Only Noblemtl

909====================

True empty hometown

We headed straight for the British Empire, where the Peng Zhou was. And as we arrived near the capital of the British Empire, a man in familiar clothes was waiting for us.

“Welcome.”

Waiting for us was Dr. Faust. A monster wearing Western academic attire, a bowler hat, and a crow-like mask of a plague doctor. And standing next to Dr. Faust were Verus and another human.

‘Who is it?’

He was as strange as Dr. Faust. He was a typical Western general wearing full-body armor, but his helmet was shaped like a sheep and he held a huge flail in one hand. I looked at Dr. Faust with suspicion because he was definitely a strange man, and he said.

“Let me introduce myself. I am Faust, this is Verus, and this is Charlemagne.”

“Charlemagne?”

As I was wondering, a giant in silver armor named Charlemagne spoke in a gruff voice.

“O eccentric of the East, I am a forgotten one. By the grace of the Guardian, I have been granted eternal life.”

” hmm.”

He seemed to be a man of extraordinary strength. As a martial arts master, his senses were telling me that his power was extremely strong. It seemed like someone who had great achievements in life was reborn as a transcendent being according to the will of the guardian.

Anyway, there was no need to wonder more about his identity, so I got to the main point.

“Zhuge Liang told me that he had succeeded in forming an alliance with you and that you had agreed to join forces to attack Pengzu today. Is that correct?”

“Yes.”

Over the years, Jegalsa has been using Faust’s knowledge to study future science and technology in his head, while also continuing to work on contacting Western powers. And now, it seems that he has achieved quite a bit of success.

“I don’t know if you know, but there are many great magicians camped out in the capital of the British Empire, and Peng Zhao is also a powerful Great Immortal. Do you have a plan for how to attack him?”

“Zhuge Liang decided to strike first.”

Kookookookookook!!

The next moment, a dark force suddenly swept in, and a dark wind poured down toward the walls of the capital city of the British Empire. The walls seemed to hold out for a moment against the terrifying wind, but then shattered like glass beads, and a black whirlpool that seemed alive began to trample the capital city.

Wooooow

Kurururur

The power of the wind was so great that it seemed as if Yongbicheon had exerted all his power! I was watching the scene from afar and was surprised, thinking that it was the power of Jegalsa.

‘When did Zhuge Liang gain such power?’

But I could understand the situation from the quiet muttering of the man next to me.

“The essence of that dark wind is the Demon King Simon Magus.”

“……!!”

“It seems he has decided to grant his disciple’s request.”

Demon King Simon Magus!

He was the leader of spiritualism and the true founder of the Baehwa religion, and was currently a legendary great magician who had been elevated from a human to a demon king. He was also Zhuge Liang’s magic master and was currently plotting all sorts of evil schemes in preparation for the end of the world. Such a being has appeared in the British Empire and started attacking Peng Zu’s forces!

They were an unexpected ally, but I couldn’t think of them in a positive light.

‘Simon Magus is the Demon King. He is the pinnacle of evil, so he will never act without a price! Jegalsa, what in the world will you give him in return…’

Without a doubt, Jegalsa must have paid a great price to bring Simon Magus to his side. I felt frustrated, but after a while, the shape of a devil appeared beyond the great wind, and all sorts of strange creatures and golems emerged from the British Empire’s Governor-General’s Office and began to resist.

Kukookung!

Kookung!!

[ %&*^@*&$*!!!]

[ #*%&*@&$*@&$!!!]

The language of the devil flows out like a terrible scream.

The enemy’s forces burst out in earnest from their base and began to engage in a full-scale battle with Simon Magus. Since the opposing side was also a magician, all sorts of mythical creatures were summoned while letting out terrible screams, and indescribably evil spells began to attack Simon while decorating the air.

Simon Magus burst into flames.

[ Heh heh heh heh heh heh… The creator of matter, that vice… The eternal textbook! Spit out the anima. ]

Chuwaaaaak

As the strange Simon Magus’s spell resonated in the dark storm, the opposing magicians floating in the air suddenly shrank and turned into blood and water. Some seemed to try to resist, but after a while, they vomited pure white aura from their mouths and turned into mummies before being crushed by the black wind.

Pukwakwakwak

It had been only a matter of hours since Simon Magus had stormed the British Governor-General’s Office, and already half of the hundreds of magicians had been brutally murdered. When I saw that, I could see how vast the gap between the Demon King and the Archmage was.

‘Hmm. Isn’t it like we have nothing more to do…?’

I was wondering if I should just watch. But when Simon Magus was running wild, a blue sword suddenly flew out of the air and pierced through the black wind.

Phew!!

[Kuaaaah…]

Simon Magus screamed, and suddenly the black vortex stopped and his human form was thrown away, flying far away. Mangryang frowned as Simon Magus disappeared over the horizon.

“Peng Zhao used his divine power to attack the weak point of the treasured Cheongun Sword. At that rate, even the Demon King would be defeated.”

“Hmm! Even so, is it possible to defeat the Demon King with just one piece of jewelry?”

“Peng Zhao is also a great-grandson of God. He is not inferior in rank, so it is entirely possible.”

Woohoo

And then, the main body of Peng Zu appeared in front. Peng Zu, who was simultaneously wrapped in divine power and magic power, was waving his Bagua embroidery with an angry expression. The hundred or so magicians who were still alive gathered around him and continued to summon otherworldly monsters, and soon, Peng Zu discovered us and let out a roar.

[ You guys are in the same boat! Attack! ]

Kieeeee

The terrible summons from the other world began to fly towards us from afar. The distance between us and Peng Zhao was at least five miles, but since both sides possessed abilities that transcended humans, this distance was not a big problem. Now that I knew that a full-scale battle with Peng Zhao had begun, I drew my sword and said.

” let’s go!”

As soon as I finished speaking, Faust, Verus, Charlemagne, and others flew forward and began to fight the summoned beings of the other world. I raised the Heavenly Sword and rushed straight at Peng Zhao, striking him with one sword strike.

“Peng Zhao!! Take this!”

Kyaang!!

[Ugh!!]

The moment Peng Zhao’s Cheongun Sword and my Yicheon Sword collided, Peng Zhao took a big step back with a numb expression on his face.

‘Yay!’

When I fought Peng Zu in my previous life, I was always pushed back in a head-on fight. No matter how strong my sword lightning was, the defense of the Bagua Embroidery Patterns surrounding Peng Zu’s body was so strong that my sword wouldn’t penetrate, and it was hard to protect my life when Peng Zu attacked.

But this time, it felt clear.

If you confront it head on, you win!

Peng Zhao said in astonishment.

[ Yes… Who are you? And what is that sword? It can overpower the ancient treasure of the celestial world, the Cheongun Sword, even though the seal hasn’t been released yet!]

I said confidently.

“It’s the Sword of Heaven!! You’re dead!”

[Euicheon Sword? I’ve never heard of that… Ah.]

Peng Zhao smiled as if he had noticed something.

[ Yeah… Hehe… That Heavenly Sword… That’s its true identity! If I had it, I’d be invincible.]

“You’re just too greedy! Let’s just have a fight!”

[ Huh, all you do is talk.]

I win!

I had such a strong intuition. Peng Zhao rushed at me once again and exchanged swords, and at that moment, I felt like Peng Zhao was manipulating time and space.

‘I didn’t feel any omen before… Is it because I’ve developed the power of the yin yang?’

Swoosh

Time before my eyes is shaking.

It was the same as before. Since Peng Zu could use divine power, he could manipulate time and space to his advantage. For an ordinary martial artist, there was no way to fight Peng Zu, and unless he could completely surpass Peng Zu’s movements, he would be fooled and die. I, too, almost died in the past because my secret and divine methods were blocked by this space and time manipulation.

But the moment I felt that vibe, I gathered strength in my nose and emitted the same amount of negative energy.

‘Sigh!’

Pakang!!

The divine power clashed and canceled out in the air! Then, Peng Zu stopped and froze in place, and I didn’t miss that gap and charged the lightning bolt into my heavenly sword and cut off Peng Zu’s head. Perhaps because Peng Zu was also very skilled in martial arts, he dodged the lightning bolt by a narrow margin.

But I kept my cool and controlled the flow. The reason I couldn’t lose my composure even in this situation was because I had already learned a skill.

Dual swordsmanship!

It was basic, but I had definitely learned it. I immediately swung the Yicheon Sword in my other hand with a counterattack.

Phew

[Gasp…]

With a sound like an axe chopping a tree, a large wound appeared on Peng Zu’s Adam’s apple, and Peng Zu stepped back, spitting out blood. Since the Yi Cheon Sword had clearly pierced Bagua Zisu Xian’s defense, Peng Zu must have been hit normally as well. However, even so, judging from the fact that he was unable to cut off his head with one blow, Peng Zu’s innate defense ability far surpassed human armor.

Wow

I continued to attack Peng Zu, swinging the Heavenly Sword in one hand and the Heavenly Sword in the other, while continuously pouring out my sword lightning like starlight. I wasn’t using a specific sword, but I felt that this fight was more of a battle of treasures and power than martial arts, so it was more important to get a chance to attack the Heavenly Sword in this way. My strategy was right, as Peng Zu soon staggered, suffering from fifteen large and small wounds all over his body.

Peng Zhao shouted, panting.

[ This… This can’t be… Me to a human!!]

“Is that all there is to a will? Get out of here!”

As if delivering the final blow, I swung my sword at Peng Zhao’s stomach using the technique of swordsmanship.

[ This damn attack! ]

Peng Zhao seemed to be striking the Cheongun Sword with the Yi Cheon Sword, but at that very moment, I came close and stabbed the wounded area with the Seon Sword again. The moment Peng Zhao defended, a large opening was created, making it too easy for me to penetrate.

Phew

[Kwaaaaaaaah!!]

“As expected, it’s piercing.”

Even if it was a Bagua embroidery, it could not immediately regenerate or defend against the wounds caused by the Heavenly Sword. And if the weakened part was struck with the Heavenly Sword and the Sword Lightning, the attack would definitely work. The Heavenly Sword that penetrated the shoulder blade crackled with lightning, and Peng Zhao’s expression became insane and he trembled as if he had been shocked.

I chuckled and then cut Peng Zhao’s body in half diagonally.

Quajik

Kuung

When Peng Zhao fell, he squirmed for a moment. Then, Mangryang swung his Pacheon Il Wol Seon.

“Stop.”

As smoke flowed out from Peng Zhao’s body, it seemed as if he would disappear at any moment, but at that moment, only time seemed to have stopped for Peng Zhao. It was clear that Peng Zhao’s disappearance had been stopped by the power of the apostle.

“Ugh…”

I grabbed my temple because my head was spinning. I felt a great loss of stamina because I had rushed here as soon as I unsealed the Sword of Heaven. The bleeding from my nose showed no sign of stopping. I felt like I had already used up all my stamina.

Mangryang came and said.

“Amazing, Baekwoong! To defeat Pengjo alone…”

The reason why I didn’t help Mangryang with the attack and only helped him finish it off was because his Pacheon Ilwol Seon was a waste of energy. There would be many occasions in the future when I would need to use the powerful Pacheon’s protection, but I couldn’t waste that protection on a small fry like Peng Zhao, so I fought alone.

“Ugh… Ugh… What’s so great about it… How many people in the world are stronger than Peng Zhao…”

This is serious.

There are so many monsters in the real world.

When I muttered in a cynical tone, Mangryang shook his head.

“Your actual age is probably not yet two hundred years old. Yet, through countless adventures, you have built up your abilities, and despite your humble talents, you have defeated the Great Immortal Peng Zu, a legendary monster who is the grandson of a god and a fusion of divine and magical powers.”

” ……”

“Except for the great Jecheon Daeseong, even the heavenly warriors would have a hard time dealing with the Peng Zhao just now. This cannot be called anything other than a great feat.”

” … Thank you…

As I was bewildered and delighted by the unexpected compliment, Faust gathered up the rest of the magicians and spoke.

“Thank you, you eccentric people of the East. You have been of great help in eliminating these evil beings today.”

“Dr. Faust. We’ve captured Peng Zou, so we need to get him to reveal the information he has. We need to interrogate him. Do you have any device that can capture a divine being?”

“Hmm… Nothing in particular… but I don’t think that’s really necessary.”

“What do you mean?”

“You too are one who can use divine powers. I think you can use those divine powers to ban Peng Zhao.”

Is it possible?

I tried to materialize the power of the yin yang by putting it over the body of the unconscious Peng Zu. Then, the next moment, I transformed it into something like a rope, and at that moment, Mangryang was startled and shouted.

“Stop it, Baek Woong!”

Stop

I quickly stopped the development of my powers. Then I looked back at Wangryang and he said.

“That was too strong just now. If you grab Peng Zhao with that much strength, he’ll instantly break down like a pillar of sand and die.”

“Should I adjust my strength…”

” … It doesn’t seem to work, so let’s give up. We can’t control the divine power that runs wild like a calf with human senses. In the current state where Black Bear is not present, it seems that precise operation or switching is impossible.”

“Okay.”

I let out a sigh. After all, I need a black bear to be able to control the powerful yin yang power as I wish. Mangryang said as if he had no other choice.

“Let’s quickly go to the Central Plains and ask the Master of the Detention Center to bind him. Master Gonseon will be able to capture this man… However, this will only make time more pressing.”

Paat

We took Peng Zu to the Central Plains and captured him using the Kunlun Twelve Great Immortals, the treasured tablet of the Great Immortal Master, the Kunshen Sheng. When I saw Peng Zu, who was tied up tightly with rope, I rolled up my sleeves and muttered.

“Okay, let the torture begin…”

Mangryang shook his head.

“…No! We don’t have time to torture a guy like this, Baek Woong. Let’s move quickly.”

“Huh!! Are you sure about that?”

“That’s right!”

Are you frying beans in a lightning fire?!

I couldn’t help but be surprised, as I had never been in such a hurry before. Mangryang continued speaking with an anxious look.

“It took half a day to defeat Peng Zhao and take away all the treasures. It’s already a waste of time. We must move immediately.”

“But, but I really have limited stamina…”

My inner physical strength, energy, vitality, and divine power were all at rock bottom. I had somehow managed to get through the Pengjo, but now I really needed to rest. Then, Mangryang aimed his Pacheonilwolseon at me and shouted.

“Recovery!”

Paat

At that moment, I came to my senses and I could see that my strength had returned to its original state. Wang Liang had used the protection of the Heavenly River to completely recover immediately! The wounds he had received from Peng Zu had also all been regenerated, so when I looked at my body with surprised eyes, Wang Liang said:

“Next is Bongrae Island, then the Underworld. There is not enough time to give you the power to explore the outer dimensions…”

Mangryang’s eyes sparkled with anxiety.

“We still have a long way to go, so let’s move quickly!”
