Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 936



Only Noblemtl

936====================

True empty hometown

I went straight from Hwangsan to the cave.

Tadot

And when I looked at the mountain topography near the cave, I could tell that it was very different from my original memory. I was sure that the location was this much, but the mountain topography and ridges were completely different. That would be the case, considering that it was a thousand years ago, the terrain may have changed a lot in the meantime.

However, I could guess where the cave was. It was a place where I practiced my life and death, so how could I forget it no matter how much time passed? Furthermore, I had visited it in every previous life, so I couldn’t help but feel uneasy. So when I reached the edge of the cave,

” ……”

there is.

There is a cave.

I felt creepy because there was a cave in the same location as my memory. I would have felt better if it wasn’t there, but it is?

‘That’s even stranger…’

I felt a chill, but I gritted my teeth. What good would it do to be this scared? I slowly reached out to the rock and climbed up the small cliff, the raindrops falling down.

When I stepped into the cave, I could see that the inside was the same. It was a cave with no light, and people were slowly lowering their heads as they entered. I went inside, being careful not to hit my head on the stalactites.

And then a bright orb appeared, emitting light. I felt breathless as I confirmed that a copper box had appeared beneath the orb.

How can this be?

It’s the same place.

Are you saying that Secretary Cheonam is in that box?

” … No way…”

I don’t have the Cheonam Secretary right now. I’m in the arms of the Shintujijon after my body changed. However, I knew from my experience so far that the Cheonam Secretary doesn’t change anything just by possessing it, and that there are incomprehensible laws, so I wasn’t too worried.

But what if there’s a secret agent in that box and I get to have it?

I wonder what will happen.

I gulped and took a step forward. And as I took a few steps, a trap appeared, just as I had expected.

Wedge!

There was no more danger after I caught the projectile that had jumped out of the trap and threw it away. Even the trap was the same as it was in the original world. I stared blankly at the copper box and slowly opened it.

Kikkkkkk…

“……!!”

I was so shocked at that moment that I cried out.

“Oh, no!”

There is no Cheonam Secretary!

Everything is the same up to here, but the important Cheonam Secretary is missing?!

I felt a strange sense of relief, but it was still a surprise. If I had gotten Secretary Cheonam here, I might have gotten a bigger benefit. However, even if I didn’t, it’s not something to worry about.

A storm of thoughts raced through my head, confusion in my mind.

‘The Cheonam Secretary is not there. Does that mean someone took it? But the trap didn’t activate. If the trap was activated… did the person who took it set the trap? No, why did they set the trap in the first place? Who took the Cheonam Secretary and why…?’

But maybe because I’m stupid, I can’t come up with a good conclusion right away. After thinking about it for a while, I shook my head and turned around.

“Oh my god… I don’t know!”

What on earth is Secretary Cheonam’s true identity?

I realized that I would have no use thinking about it any longer, so I decided to move on. Since I had already saved the location once with the boiling point, I could come right away if I wanted to come back later. The next place I headed to was the White Lotus Sect in Xingang.

Paat

As soon as I arrived at the White Lotus Sect, I asked Dharma for money, beef jerky, a map, and clothing. It wasn’t a problem if I didn’t have any, but since my peerless internal energy had disappeared, my physical strength would be limited if I traveled naked, so it wouldn’t hurt to get some support.

Tadadot

I set off from Xinjiang and headed to Astana. Astana was in the Arasha territory, so it was very far north. Of course, the Arasha Empire did not exist at this time, but it was still a place under the sphere of influence of the Blue-eyed People of the North.

And even though Xinjiang is a new place outside of the Central Plains, it is at least a thousand miles to Astana, and I have to cross the grasslands. I ran diligently, rested occasionally, and practiced my internal energy during my rest. It may not have been very effective, but it was better than not practicing internal energy at all. I headed northwest without stopping.

After traveling for about twenty days, I finally arrived at the place where the old Astana temple used to be. Fortunately or unfortunately, there were quite a few villages nearby, and it seemed like a decent place to live.

‘The temple scenery is the same.’

Seeing the temple that had maintained its appearance regardless of the ups and downs of history, I felt a strange sense of anticipation. Then I went inside the temple and shouted.

“Prophet, it’s a deal!!”

silence.

I waited for a long time, but there was no answer. Instead, a young man wearing an Orthodox priest’s habit came toward me and spoke something in a foreign language.

” #*%&&*@&%*…”

Um… I don’t understand what you’re saying…

The middle-aged man sighed as if I couldn’t understand, and took out something that looked like a strange relic of a tribe. He then put it next to his ear, and I could hear the middle-aged man’s words translated to me.

“Stranger, leave this sacred ancient temple.”

“Huh?! That’s an interpreter… What do you have to do with the prophet?”

“You must be a wise man who knows the dark knowledge since you know this thing… Please explain the situation.”

I asked an Orthodox priest about the appearance and abilities of the prophets and whether he had ever seen them. The priest shuddered slightly and said:

“I am a servant of that race. And the being you are describing seems to be a very high and noble being… Are you also not a human but a race from another world?”

“No. I just need to make contact with that race and meet them. Isn’t there a way to do that?”

“Impossible. Those beings do not live on this Earth. They exist in a world so far away that we have no chance of meeting them.”

“You’re not living?”

“That’s right. He just gives wisdom to servants like me and uses them to scout the land.”

Oh, what is it…

Clearly, they came to this Earth and lived there under the name of the Chukryong tribe. However, from what the priest said, it seemed like the prophet and his family were nowhere to be seen on Earth. Considering that the Chukryong tribe and the Astana prophet had been living on Earth for quite some time, it was a very different situation.

I said with a frown.

“Hmm… There must be a being that gives you orders and sometimes watches over this place through mind sharing. He is probably listening to me right now. I propose to him that you tell him that I, Baekwoong, wish to meet with the Demon King Prophet, the king of the clan.”

“What nonsense… Those beings are literally cosmic beings, and they’re pretending to listen to us? Get out of here…”

It was the moment when the Orthodox priest was about to shout.

Kkuddeuk

Kkuddeuk

His eyes suddenly rolled back and his pupils turned white. Then, completely unconscious, words flowed out of his mouth.

[ Humans who seek our King… The King finds your presence interesting… If you accept our invitation, we will grant you an audience with the King…]

“Okay! Let’s go!”

[ good night…]

Pfft!!

The moment the words ended, I suddenly moved from the ground and found myself in a place that seemed like another world. There were mysterious otherworldly buildings and floating ships that I had never seen before, and things like dandelion seeds were fluttering in the sky. There were also five suns, and something rainbow-colored was constantly decorating the sky.

And when I looked before my eyes, there was a huge throne, and a familiar two-legged being was sitting on the throne.

[ Did you want to see me…? ]

As soon as I saw him, I was so happy that I waved and shouted.

“Hey Prophet!! Nice to meet you!!”

[ ……]

“It looks just like that!”

Groan groan

The other tribesmen around me were in an uproar, emitting mental waves at my actions. Then the prophet spoke.

[ It’s like he’s seeing me again… And even though he’s been exposed to our clan’s waves, there’s no change in his brain waves… And he doesn’t feel any confusion from his magic… What a mysterious person… ]

“Do you remember when we met before?”

[ No… Not at all… We’re meeting for the first time… If you claim to be familiar with us… Hmm…]

The prophet then spoke with a smiling tone.

[ Yeah… I know what I call a being like you… Hehe… Did you come through the [door]…? You who came from outside…]

” ……”

[There are only a very limited number of beings permitted to travel outside… If so… you are probably one who repeats life…]

Wow, you guessed it right away.

I wanted to nod, but I knew that I should not reveal the secret of my past life. I could not help but let the other person guess, but at least I should not admit it with my own mouth. So I spoke to the prophet without confirming or denying.

“There are two things I want to know. Can you teach me those two things?”

[There is nothing in the world that our clan does not know… However, we cannot just hand over our precious wisdom for free… There is a price to pay for information…]

“What price do you want?”

[ First, ask a question… After hearing the question, think of a price that matches the information… ]

I nodded and said.

“First. I want to know if there are beings called Mangyangseonsa and Hwangsin in this world. If so, how can I contact them?”

[ … Second is…?]

“Second. Master Dharma summoned the Four Great Gods of our world to this world, but it seems to be fake. What happened? And I want to know if his singularity has already been summoned.”

[ Hmm… ]

The prophet thought for a while, then seemed to be conversing with the three colorful monsters beside him through the sound of their minds. He then said:

[ It’s not hard to answer all those questions… but there’s a price to pay. ]

“At what price.”

[ When you have completed all your tasks and return… tell the Watcher… that you have asked me questions and obtained information…]

” … is that the end?”

[ Yeah… simple. ]

Is that all you can afford?

I was nervous because I didn’t have any treasures, but the conditions were simpler than I thought. I nodded happily.

“Okay! Tell me the information.”

[ Hmm… First… If you want to know about the existence of the Mangryangseonsa and the Hwangsin… I think I’ll have to read your memories first… Agree to share information.]

“I agree.”

[ Then let’s explore the memories…]

As soon as the Prophet’s tentacles touched my head, I felt my memories being copied and read at an incredible speed. The Prophet, who had read my memories in an instant, spoke after a while.

[The being called Mangryangseonsa does not exist in this world… There has never been such a being from the beginning. However, the being called the Evil Spirit clearly exists in this world, and it is sleeping in the depths of the Earth’s ocean until the day the constellations return… I will tell you how to contact the Evil Spirit immediately.]

Ss …

Knowledge of summoning rituals and spells to call evil spirits entered my head. I muttered without paying attention to that knowledge.

“The Mangryangseonsa does not exist.”

[ Yes… If it’s as you remember, there are incredibly powerful beings in the entire universe… But I’ve never seen or heard of such a being… This is truly strange, even to me…]

I felt a little gloomy when I heard that the Mangryangseonsa did not exist. The only hope I had was that cat, but there was nothing like that here. I shook my head and spoke to the prophet.

“Then the second one!”

[The Four Great Gods that Master Dharma summoned… Even I am not sure whether they are true or not… But because they are unclear, some things become certain…]

“What are you talking about?”

[Master Dharma’s singularity has already been summoned. And it is not you, Baekwoong.]

“Then who is it? Is it the new god of war?”

[ It doesn’t necessarily have to be a person…]

“……?”

[ A singularity can manifest itself in any form imaginable. Some may even manifest it as a great current called destiny… Master Dharma also knows this, which is why he did not hastily judge and oppose you.]

“In the end, you’re saying you don’t know.”

[ … Let me give you just one piece of advice…]

The prophet’s eyes sparkled.

[Great Cosmic Horse… Depending on what choice you make at the end… Everything will change… Depending on what kind of future you wish to see…]

Pfft!!

The moment I finished speaking, I was back in the temple in Astana.

I knew that what I had just experienced was not a dream. I had been summoned to a world billions of light years away and then returned. I laid the unconscious Orthodox priest down and walked out of the temple.

‘Choice?’

What on earth does that prophet know?

Anyway, since I had completed the mission that Dharma had given me, I immediately used the boiling water and returned to the White Lotus Sect headquarters. Then, I reported to Dharma the information I had acquired so far, and Dharma listened carefully and then said:

[ Very well done… Baek Woong… ]

“What should I do now?”

I was taken aback by Dharma’s subsequent words.

[Teach me martial arts…]
