Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 910



Only Noblemtl

910====================

True empty hometown

Paat

I went to Chilseongdan in Tamnado, the entrance to Bongrae Island. And Mangryang told me how to open the door to Chilseongdan.

“Unleash the power of the constellations.”

“Are you okay without Cheon Woojin?”

“It doesn’t matter. After all, this Seven-Star Altar was built with the power of the constellations and is a stable relic. If it’s the power of the same constellations, it will be more than enough to activate.”

Woohoo!!

I drew on the power of the constellations that I had received from Xiang Yu and breathed them into the Seven Stars Altar. I frowned when I realized that the power of the constellations had been depleted more than I had thought.

‘Damn, I expected that…’

The power of the constellation that Xiang Yu had given me was first absorbed into the power of the yin qi and circled my heart like twin wheels. Thanks to that, the power of the yin qi was temporarily amplified, but the two different powers did not mix well. I could not draw out the power of the yin qi and the power of the constellation at the same time, and instead, I felt the power of the constellation diminishing every time I used the power of the yin qi. Because of that, I could clearly feel that the power of the constellation had been reduced to less than half of what it had been when I first received it.

Wooooow

As the light came into the Seven Star Altar, the altar started working, but my expression did not lighten. Mangryang, who felt something strange, asked.

“Baek Woong. Why are you like that?”

” in fact…”

I said that the current situation is that the power of the yin yang and the power of the constellations are out of balance and are constantly being canceled out. Then Mangryang thought about it carefully and said.

“It can’t be helped. The power of the Yin Shi Zhi is the power of Jeon Wook, and the power of the constellations is completely different from that power of Jeon Wook.”

“Can’t we absorb the constellations into our negative powers like in the case of Amaterasu?”

“It may not be impossible, but I don’t think it will work.”

“Why?”

“The power of the constellation that Xiang Yu gave me is a kind of terminal. It is a connection to a distant star system that cannot be obtained even if you die and come back to life. Since it is a terminal, it is more of a [channel] than a pure mass of power. Absorbing it would be meaningless, and there is a high possibility that it will only cause interference from the true owner of the constellation.”

“The real owner of the constellation?”

Mangryang sighed.

“I’m talking about [the old rulers]. The monsters that rule the galaxy…”

” ah…”

“The original constellation’s ability holders only draw their terminals from the great power. Compared to the power ruled by the true master, they are so weak that they are not interfered with. However, if the constellations are united through the power of the yin yang and the terminal becomes more powerful and the passage is widened… the master of the power will show great interest in you.”

I flinched at Mangryang’s words.

‘That’s not very good.’

If they are the masters of a distant star system and [former rulers], they are beings so distant that it is hard for mortals to even imagine them. They are monsters on par with or even greater than [Relcrobaus] that I saw at the end of the universe. If such guys try to put [calls] in my head like evil spirits or try to interfere in any way, it will only be a nuisance and a danger to me.

I said it because a thought suddenly occurred to me.

“Then what happened to Xiang Yu? Xiang Yu ran wild, using the power of the twelve constellations without any interference.”

“In the history of the universe, Xiang Yu is the only human born with such overlapping constellations. In other words, Xiang Yu was a human in appearance, but he was infinitely close to the [realm of the ruler]… The very status he possessed was different.”

” ……”

“Baek-ung, I know what you are worried about. You just received two constellations from Xiang Yu, but it’s a shame that your power keeps decreasing.”

“To be honest, yes.”

“There’s no need to feel sorry even if it’s reduced. Even if you just digest the power of the yin yang, the strength itself is more than enough… and that constellation can be used for purposes other than combat later on.”

After saying that, Mangryang strode into Chilseongdan.

“Okay, let’s go. We must rescue the poor sages.”

Woof!

After entering Bongrae Island through Chilseongdan, we immediately began the task of defeating the Haesin tribe that ruled Bongrae Island and rescuing the sages. Seomunhye took the lead and began to advance, killing the Haesin tribe.

Pukwakwakwak!

Kwakwakwang!!

[ Kkieeee… Huh?!]

Kwakwang!!

Seomunhye grabbed the foot of the giant sea god that was as tall as this chapter and threw it to a distant peak, and the peak burst with blood and the mountain collapsed. It was such an unbelievable force that the thousands of sea gods surrounding us all fell into a state of deep thought and stepped back. I let out a sigh as I watched Seomunhye like that.

“Hmm…”

It’s really strong.

Seomunhye’s current strength and speed seemed to surpass that of a human, or even a Tuseon. She was already strong, but she seemed to have become even stronger after the Celestial War. Mangryang stood next to her and said with a laugh.

“With the Emperor freed from the seal, the bloodline of the giantess can only become stronger… Furthermore, she learned how to use her power effectively through fighting against strong enemies in the Celestial War.”

” ……”

“The strongest among our group is currently Seo Moon-hye.”

Pubber pubber pubber

Kookwakwang

” … I think so.”

I had no choice but to acknowledge Mangryang’s words when I saw Seomunhye turn five hundred Haesin tribe members into blood cakes in the blink of an eye. Seomunhye’s incredible one-shot was blowing away a mountain. Now the Haesin tribe members couldn’t even think of attacking Seomunhye and instead attacked the other groups, but if I just killed those who approached me with my sword lightning, I would be completely safe.

[ Kkieeeek!!]

Soon, the sea gods fled, their tails tied. They hadn’t killed them all yet, but with thousands of them annihilated in just one day, they probably had no desire to fight any longer. Seomunhye, who had caused the bloodshed, sighed and said.

“Come on, let’s go.”

In fact, we could have brought Miho here, but Miho was on an important mission, so we brought only Seomunhye. And in fact, Mangryang was completely right when he said that Seomunhye was enough. We released the sages who were imprisoned and headed to where Bongrae Island leader Lee Heungpae was.

Crackle!!

Lee Heung-pae’s treasure automatically reacted and tried to burn the intruder to death, but I blocked it with my psychic power by creating a large barrier. However, since my strength was not controlled, an excessively large barrier was created, and in an instant, a black curtain the size of several dozen sheets was created.

‘Ugh.’

Of course, there has to be a black bear…

As I was feeling bewildered inside, I heard Lee Heung-pae’s fearful voice from inside.

[ … Is this the disciple of Jeon Wook…? That tremendous power… Has he come to collect our souls and take them to the Man-Gwi-Jeon?]

I walked into the street where I could see Lee Heung-pae and then said.

“I think you misunderstood something. It’s true that I am Jeon Wook’s disciple, but I had no such intention, Lee Heung Pae.”

[Why have you come to see me?]

“I am Baekung. Do you know that the heavens have been destroyed and the Queen Mother of the West has fallen from power?”

[ ……!!]

I gave Lee Heung-pae a rough explanation of the situation. After hearing the overall story, Lee Heung-pae finally recovered from his shock and said:

[ I see… The law of causality for the advent of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Jeon Wook… He is going around collecting treasures from various places. ]

“I will be honest with you. Give me the treasure that Doju has, the Banhwangju.”

[ ……]

Lee Heung-pae looked at me blankly and said.

[ How strange… You spoke as if nothing happened yourself… But the one who led all of this was none other than Baek Woong… The source of that immense knowledge and information is impossible to even guess…]

” ……”

[Good… Instead, please gather the immortals and bring them under the command of the Eight Immortals. If you promise that, I will give you Banhwangju.]

“Okay…”

Just as I was about to agree to Lee Heung-pae’s words, Mangryang intervened.

“Wait a minute, Lee Heung-pae. I have something to ask you.”

[ What is it…?]

“About Samsinsan (Three Sacred Mountains).”

[ What do you want to know? ]

“Please tell me how to get to the other three sacred mountains, Yeongjusan and Bangjangsan. I should go there too.”

[ Hmm… There is no direct way from Bongrae Island. As you may know, Bongrae Island has the Man-Gwi-Jeon, the palace of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Jeon-Wook. If we were not careful, there would be a risk of Man-Gwi-Jeon invading other Samsin Mountains. However… There is an entrance on the surface world. ]

“Where is that?”

[Yeongjusan is the Taebaeksan (太白山) of the peninsula, and Bangjangsan is the Baekdusan (白頭山) of the peninsula. Dimensions are superimposed there, and just like Bongrae Island, the Seongju (星主) will be managing the entrance to Samsinsan for generations.]

” ……”

At that moment, Mangryang’s expression became one of realization. He thought deeply and then smiled.

“Thank you for the very good information. Then, can you tell me who the leaders of Yeongjusan and Bangjangsan are?”

[ Sorry, I don’t know about that… ]

“Haven’t other Nine Dragon Islands been appointed as Four Guardians?”

[ As for personnel matters, it was a strict secret, so even I don’t know anything. ]

“I see.”

[ Hehe… Then goodbye…]

Hurrruk!!

After a while, Lee Heung-pae let out a soft laugh and was engulfed in a spirit fire and disappeared. Then, in the place where he disappeared, a beaded jewel and a half-moon pearl rolled around. It seemed that Lee Heung-pae was just waiting for the day to die.

Mangryang picked up the half-moon wine and handed it to me.

“Take it.”

“With this, we’ve achieved our goal. How can we easily get to the Underworld now?”

“The Underworld can open a passage right now using the Pacheonilwolseon. You won’t be able to go all the way to the deepest part right away, but you’ll be able to start exploring from a certain depth.”

Chorak

Mangryang opened the Pacheonilwolseon, but soon folded it again and continued speaking.

” … Of course, this is the den of the Sea Gods, and there is a Man-Gwi-Jeon nearby, so opening the door here would be suicide. Let’s go back for now.”

“Okay, I understand.”

We returned to the earthly realm with the Banhwangju and the sages, and went to entrust the sages of Bongrae Island, who had fallen into ruin, to the Palseon.

“Baek Woong. Now that I think about it, you probably have the seeds of Yonghwasu.”

“Ah. There it is.”

I tried to take out the seeds of Yonghwasu from the wooden box one by one, but Mangryang stopped me with his hand and said.

“Not right now, but keep it safe. Always be aware that you have it. You will use it soon.”

“Come to think of it, wouldn’t it be enough to just offer up the seeds of this Yonghwasu as a sacrifice to the cause and effect of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors? Just this alone…”

If it’s the seed of Yongwhasu, it’s the world tree, so it’s more than enough!

Mangryang shook his head at my suggestion.

“It can be done, but it is not necessary.”

“……?”

“The saying is that the name and the reality are different. You are not acting just to fulfill Jeon Wook’s will right now.”

” … I see.”

I could understand the meaning of Mangryang’s words. In fact, if I just scrape together the treasures I have now, it would be possible to grant the Three Emperors enough causality to cut off Yeo-wa’s lifeline.

However, the reason I was buying time and wandering around under the pretense of collecting treasures was because if I quickly offered them food, they would only end up doing good things. The real reason I was wandering around under the pretense of collecting treasures was actually to gather enough strength to safely explore the inside of the flood.

Mangryang said.

“It would be best for you, Baekwoong, to go to the underworld alone.”

“Seo Moon-hye, aren’t you going to follow me?”

“If you remember, you’ll know that exploring the underworld is unique and dangerous. Regardless of whether you have power or not, there are many traps that can suck you in and destroy you if you’re not careful. It’s pointless even if you have many companions following you, so it’s better for you to go alone.”

Mangryang scratched his chin and said, “Hmm.”

” … The more important reason is that even with my Heavenly Sun and Moon Sect, only one person has enough power to return to the present world. In fact, if Baek Woong hadn’t become this strong, I wouldn’t have even dreamed of going to the underworld.”

“But I don’t know where the innermost room is.”

“Don’t worry. I will guide you using the Pacheonilwolseon.”

Pfft!!

The moment Mangryang finished speaking, I was standing on the land of an unknown underworld. Mangryang had used the Pacheonilwolseon to instantly send me to the underworld.

” ……”

Ssssssss

‘Should I just follow that light?’

I could see a pure white, soft light circling the ground, creating a path. This was probably the [India] that Mangyang had spoken of. I wondered what principle Mangyang used to wield such great power, but I could not help but think that the [Pacheon’s Protection] granted to Pacheonilwolseon was close to omnipotent.

“Okay, let’s go!”

Tadadot!

I quickly started running across the land of the underworld, following the guidance of the phantom. Since it was the underworld, I thought there would be souls screaming ominously here and there, but the land was just covered in dark clouds and sleeping in silence. On the contrary, I felt no more presence of souls than on the ground, which made me wonder.

After a while, I came across a dark, huge mountain and let out a sigh. Then I muttered.

“Is that Mount Yeomra?”

According to Mangryang’s memory, if you do not enter the underworld normally, you will not cross the Samdocheon (三途川) but will have to go through the valley of the underworld. The valley is practically a place where extraterrestrial forces invade, so all the soldiers and vassals of the underworld were to defend it around the fortress. Also, the mountain itself was ten times higher than any mountain in the human world, so it was called the Great Mountain of Yeomra.

Hundreds of thousands of Hell spirits and Hell gods are stationed on Mount Yeomra.

When you cross Mount Yeomra, you will immediately arrive at the Yeomra Palace, where King Yeomra rules. And if you go about 300 li further in from the Yeomra Palace, you will arrive at the room of the Wheel-Turning King, where the Myunggyeong (冥鏡) is sealed.

Today, I will cross Mount Yeomra and pass through Yeomrabu to obtain the clear mirror!

It was quite an ordeal and something that no human could ever do, but I steeled myself and gritted my teeth.

I have to fight even God, so I can’t say anything about dying like this!

“Let’s go!”

I was ready to fight hundreds of thousands of demons and ran towards them with my sword in hand.

Ss …

It seemed as if the illusion of a half moon was reflected.

“……?!”

At that moment, I could see the trunk of the giant Yama Mountain being cut off diagonally and slowly falling to the side. The mountain was so huge that the moment Heuksan (black mountain) descended, it felt like the black and white of the sky were reversed.

Kukukukukugugugu…

Kukuku….

‘Yeomra Mountain was cut down?!’

I didn’t know what was going on, but soon I used the Hwaan Geumjeong to sharpen my eyesight, and I could see that far ahead, near Yeomra Mountain, someone was surrounded by Yeomra spirits. And as soon as I saw that, I opened my eyes.

“……!!”

It’s him!

A warrior wearing a bamboo hat!

Even though he was surrounded by countless thugs, he stood there with his arms folded proudly. It was as if he had nothing to fear. Perhaps it was also his doing that he had cut down the Great Mountain of Hell with a single sword just now.

‘Hey, hey… why are you here?’

I was wondering what to do.

The distance is so far that it seems like he hasn’t noticed us yet. But at the same time, isn’t this an opportunity to find out the identity of that mysterious figure? If I can find an opening behind the thugs and attack and subdue the hat-wearing warrior, it could be a huge gain.

That guy is so suspicious.

Why would a guy who should be fighting monsters in the flood be in the underworld?

” ……”

But, would I really be able to fight and win against the guy who cut down the mountain of Yeomra that was thousands of chapters high…?

It was a feat that was as great as cutting down Kunlun Mountain in one blow, so I couldn’t help but hesitate to approach him. It might be best to just complete my mission without being noticed by him and then return.

Now I have to choose.

Raid or stealth?
