Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 939



Only Noblemtl

939====================

True empty hometown

Woof

I moved using the teleportation magic gate that Dharma had created. When I passed through the gate, there was a beach, and I glanced at the nearby terrain and muttered.

“This isn’t the eastern peninsula.”

[ Yes, it is Shandong. ]

Ssssss

The figure of Dharma appeared like mist next to me. I spoke to Dharma.

“Currently, the places where the Sea God’s magic extends the strongest are Baekje and Silla, so why are you trying to attack the Sea God on the Shandong Peninsula?”

[ Look at the sky… ]

sky?

I looked up at the sky at Dharma’s words, and I could see that in the distance, dark clouds were filling the sky, and blood-colored rays were spouting out intermittently.

‘Magic is swirling…’

As soon as I realized that phenomenon with the knowledge I had learned from Zhuge Liang, I was able to understand the hidden meaning of Bodhidharma’s words.

“That place has already been taken over by the sea god.”

[ That’s not the right expression either… How could a human being in this world resist the [Old Ruler]? They were simply trampled by an opponent they couldn’t even resist…]

“What is the sea god’s intention?”

[ Could there be any ulterior motive? It’s just a game, nothing more, nothing less…]

” ……”

[ In your world, there seems to have been a mortal force capable of stopping even the sea gods… but there is no such thing here.]

That’s right.

Not only was there the heavenly realm of the central plains, so the sea god could not rashly rise up, but on the eastern peninsula, the Twelve Laws and the Twelve Law Pearl used the power of the World Tree to suppress the sea god. This is incomparable to the humans of this world who have no supernatural powers at all.

In other words, the sea god is literally destroying human civilization just for fun.

But countless people have already died and been sacrificed to that prank, and it has been a terrible sight.

[There is no need to go to the eastern peninsula, which is practically the home base of the Sea God. From here, you can protect the central plains while simultaneously summoning the Sea God and subduing him.]

As I was listening to Dharma, I suddenly felt like I didn’t understand, so I said.

” I don’t know.”

[What don’t you know?]

” [The old rulers] have such overwhelming power… why do they only commit extremely evil acts? With that power, they could have shown some mercy or goodness.”

[ At the point where overwhelming power exists, good and evil are already useless. You should know that much… From our perspective, it’s just the worst, but they themselves have no awareness of it. ]

“I know. I know it so well I’m sick of it.”

I muttered bitterly.

” … I was just saying.”

I remembered a conversation I had with a transcendent being before.

If humans are nothing more than insects, and if you think about it from the other person’s perspective, can you judge whether stepping on an insect and killing it is good or evil? Of course, I could understand what he was saying, and I also knew how insignificant humans are. If the units of power are too different, then it is no longer at the level where you can discuss good and evil.

but.

Nevertheless, I often thought:

“Isn’t there a benevolent God who exists only for humans…”

Dharma responded to my muttering.

[ It does not exist. Nowhere. ]

“I guess so.”

[ Now move. The battle will begin. ]

Swish

Dharma raised his hand. At that moment, the sea water split open and stretched out beyond the horizon.

Choaaaak –

And between the cliffs of the parted sea water, a deep land was visible, and in the intimate darkness of the land, covered with a curtain of water, was the city of the Sea Gods. I frowned, as I had attacked that city with the Twelve Laws before.

‘So there’s a city like that in this world too.’

At that time, he went with the twelve law masters including the twelve law masters and used the power of the seven yoi and world tree to recover and took the time to slaughter tens of thousands of sea gods. However, this time, Dharma will attack the city alone.

Dharma looked coldly at the city of the Sea Gods and slowly lowered his hand.

Kugugugugu

Kukuku….

Then, a dark hand was summoned from the air, and out of nowhere, it grew large enough to cover the entire city with its palm. The dark palm began to descend very slowly towards the city of the Sea Gods, and soon, when the palm touched the water curtain protecting the city, it seemed to stop.

no way?

I looked at Dharma, but he just lowered his hand very slowly without any change in expression.

Swish

Boohoo!!

From a great distance, the water curtain protecting the city could be seen bursting under the pressure. Then, the hand of darkness slowly began to descend, pressing down on the entire city, and silently covered the city with its palm.

Kookung…

” ……”

I watched from afar with enhanced vision as my palms reached the ground completely, and I was speechless.

‘… They all died.’

Yes, that’s right.

Dharma simply pressed down on the city of the Sea Gods with the palm of his dark hand, but it was so huge that he could annihilate tens of thousands of Sea Gods at once just by pressing down on them. All of the Sea Gods would have been crushed to death without being able to escape.

A massacre of a large scale had occurred, but there was no trace of it, only silence. Dharma waved his hand once, and the hand of darkness was de-summoned and disappeared. In its place, only the ruins of a city that had been shattered into pieces and was difficult to find a trace of remained.

[The Sea God tribe has been annihilated, so the Sea God will react. When he comes, the fight will begin.]

Does Dharma think that what he just did wasn’t even a fight?

Well, I don’t think you can call just one-sided massacre a fight.

‘This is the magic of Dharma…’

It was truly incredible. I felt it when I was dealing with the Avatar, but he had reached a level that was hard to imagine for a mortal. It wasn’t for nothing that the Giant King Suin refused to fight. I was almost certain that at this level, I could easily defeat the Sea God.

There’s no way I can’t catch it.

How could this monster, who could destroy a planet with just one spell, not be able to catch Haesin!

That was the time.

Swoosh

As the space opened up, Shintojijon appeared before us. Shintojijon grumbled as if he was displeased with something.

“Damn, you’re finally doing it. This is crazy.”

[ Are you ready? ]

“I guess you must have come since everything is done.”

[Oh, my lord. Can you not go crazy after seeing the sea god?]

Shintojijon shrugged his shoulders in response to Dharma’s question.

“Even without your magic power, I don’t feel afraid of Haesin-do. When I first crossed over to Dongyeong, I secretly wanted to meet that guy and stab him in the balls with my sword…”

“Blasphemy.”

When I laughed at the God of War, the God of War laughed back.

” Hehe. It’s only once or twice that I’ve let my crazy actions get the better of me. Baek Woong, you guys will soon taste the bitterness.”

“Yes. Please try that, senior.”

[Both up to there.]

Dharma saw the two of us growling and told us to calm down, then said:

[ Came.]

Kukwakwakwa –

Suddenly, a red aura rose from the ruins of the city of the Sea Gods. Then, the aura formed a magical formation in the air, and slowly, a giant fish with a majestic presence was summoned.

It’s huge.

And… strong.

“……!!”

This wasn’t my first time facing the Sea God, but when I faced him again, I felt an indescribable sense of sadness. I realized through his presence that the monster in the distance was a gigantic being that would be difficult for a mortal to deal with.

‘Damn… Even though he’s the weakest of the [old rulers]… I still can’t catch that guy by myself.’

Among the [old rulers], he was easy to beat up often during his reincarnation, but in fact, he was by no means an easy opponent. If I had not been reincarnated, the fact that he was my enemy would have been the despair and fear of my life. It was impossible to inflict a fatal wound on the sea god with a single blow with any martial arts or magic, and his attack and defense power were beyond imagination. I still can’t forget the terrifying sight of the sea god drying up the sea with the rays he emitted.

Dharma glanced at me and muttered.

[I guess so…]

” what?”

[You feel no fear at all. I knew it.]

“……?”

If I didn’t flinch at the sight of a transcendent being, everyone would usually be shocked or find it strange, but Dharma’s reaction was somewhat indifferent and expected. It was as if he thought that I should naturally do that. On the contrary, Dharma seemed surprised when he saw the divine being next to him.

[ … and you, the God of Shinto, are truly strange.]

“Oh. I hear that a lot.”

Shintojijon also showed no change in expression when he saw Haesin. He didn’t show any sign of being intimidated either, and just had a bored expression on his face while picking at his ears. He seemed extremely comfortable, as if he was just out playing in the neighborhood.

… uh?

There’s definitely something strange…

It is not possible to simply ignore the pressure of the Sea God because the Shinto Master is a peerless master. No matter how powerful a master is, he becomes even more tense because he feels the tremendous power of the Sea God. Even Hwa-ryong Jin-in and Yeo Dong-bin felt very tense. The Sea God’s magical power is so strong that regardless of one’s state of mind, whether one likes it or not, it is something that cannot be helped.

But Shintojijon doesn’t even have that kind of tension. He doesn’t even have the most basic reactions or alertness that a living organism should have.

There’s something strange about this.

It seemed like a leisure of a different nature than what one might call the leisure of the strong.

But before I could figure out what the discomfort was, Shintojijon spoke leisurely.

“The goal isn’t to beat that guy up, but to steal his soul. To catch the soul of the Sea God, you first have to find out his core. I’ll be back after playing for a bit, so you, Dharma, wait.”

[ What are you trying to do? ]

“What is it? I’ll just say hello.”

Whirlyrick!!

The moment Shintojijon finished speaking, he transformed into a gust of wind using the Dokmunshin method and flew towards the sea god. He was so fast that it seemed like he had reached the horizon in an instant. I realized Shintojijon’s actions too late and fell into a state of worry.

‘What should I do?’

Originally, I should have followed him, but approaching the sea god like that was no different from committing suicide. Even the lord of the seven lords, the Twelve Rulers, did not dare to confront the sea god head-on. Even if I followed him later, with my current strength, it was obvious that I would be killed by the sea god.

What on earth are you trying to do?

The Shinto Master flew up to the face of the Sea God, then suddenly changed course and soared vertically. Then, he charged straight into what was presumed to be the Sea God’s heart.

Paaaaat

‘No! You’ll die if you keep doing that!’

I felt anxious when I saw his reckless behavior. This was because the Sea God had incredible perception and reflexes that were not befitting of his enormous size. When fighting the Sea God, even though Yeo Dong Bin was flying around with the Sword Flight Technique, the Sea God was able to follow every movement with his eyes. If you approached the Sea God at a slow pace, you would be swatted away like a fly.

As expected, the Sea God immediately reacted to the movements of the Great God and opened his mouth slightly, and a terrifying beam of light shot out from his mouth along with waves of light at incredible speed.

Jiiing!!

The strange light struck the divine being without even giving him a moment’s pause, and soon the air became a clean, empty space.

” ……”

Is the new god dead?

So vainly?

I was watching the Shinto King suffer from afar with a blank expression on my face, but after a while, something surprising happened.

“Ugh!”

One-handed scale theft

Flash

Suddenly, the hand of the God of War appeared with a sudden burst of energy. It seemed as if it had flashed once, and the next moment, he began to free fall with something larger than his body. The place he started falling was completely different from where he had originally been, so much so that it seemed as if he had teleported.

And the sea god roared.

[ ————-!! ]

A sound that was inaudible to humans shook my insides. I quickly drew up my strength to protect myself from the sound, but I could tell that the sound was filled with anger.

‘ no way…’

I sharpened my eyesight to see the true identity of the [round sphere], and after a while I was astonished when I realized what it was.

“Scale!!”

Shintojijon dodged the lightning in an instant and tore off the scales on the sea god’s back!

In human terms, it would be like having the skin removed.

Kookwakwakwang

He was attacked by the sea god again, but he used an unknown poison technique to evade the attack and returned to where we were. It seemed that the sea god’s attack could not even graze the divine spirit.

Tadot

Shintojijon said, throwing down the large scale he was carrying on his head.

“Dragon and snake usually have reverse scales, but this one doesn’t seem to have any. If we can’t aim at the reverse scales, then where would the core be?”

“… There is no such thing as a core. Even if you twist that bastard’s limbs, it won’t show up. In the end, you have no choice but to destroy it by force…”

“Hehehe. Your tone is like you’ve fought the sea god before, junior?”

” ……”

When I was silent, the God of War spoke.

“Then there’s nothing more for us to do. We just have to wait for the moment when the soul escapes. Dharma.”

[ I know. ]

Dharma’s body slowly began to rise into the air. He twisted his hands in the air and took the form of a fist, and spoke coldly.

[ I’ll break it… ]

Kwajijik!!

The moment Dharma finished speaking, a dark hand was summoned in the air and grabbed the body of the sea god. As soon as it was grabbed, the dozens of layers of magic and barriers surrounding the sea god’s body were instantly shattered, as I could see with my own eyes. When I saw the attack power, I was overwhelmed by a sense of wonder.

‘I, Yeo Dong-bin risked his life to break that barrier…’

Wood crunch

Wood crack…

[ Let’s end it like this. ]

Dharma tried to squeeze the sea god while holding his dark hand even tighter. Then, every time he did, pieces and scales fell from the sea god’s huge body, causing damage. It really seemed like Dharma could kill the sea god just by holding his hand.

‘Amazing. How much magical power is needed to be able to do something like that…’

As I was secretly admiring it, the sea god opened his mouth and let out a strange roar.

[ ————- !! ]

It was a roar that was completely incomprehensible like before, but what was certain was that the roar was not just a scream. As I and Shintujijon watched the situation without knowing what was going on, Dharma spoke.

[ I never thought I’d ask for help… ]

” help?”

Dharma looked troubled.

[ I thought that if a mortal were to attack the Sea God, he would not ask for salvation out of pride, but I was wrong. He will have many enemies… ]

Pfft!

Pfft!

After a while, I saw a huge magic circle rising in the air on both sides of the sea god, and I understood what Dharma meant.

” ……”

That is the summoning circle of the [Old Ruler]. It must have been cast with the magic of the Sea God, so the probability of the summoning being successful is very high.

And now there’s really nothing I can do here. I cussed out.

“Fuck…”

When Haesin was in danger of being killed by Dharma, he used his magic to summon two [former rulers].
