Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 941



Only Noblemtl

941====================

True empty hometown

Swoosh

After a while, the new form of the Shinto Master disappeared. When I saw it, I felt a strange feeling.

‘What on earth is that new law…’

Is this really a martial arts skill?

I know that there is a separate method of the Shinto Master’s poison.

The name is Muyeongtalju (無影脫走). It is an evolved form of Seosangtalju, a martial art originally included in the secret level of Shintujijon, and it is a rising technique with incredible speed. However, although I trained under Shintujijon for about a year and practiced secret techniques such as Cheonmyeon Gongja, I did not learn Muyeongtalju in depth.

Because even if it was fast, it couldn’t reach the extreme of the best divine technique in the history of the Brain God Style, the Myeolhonbo, and the realm of Pacheon Ilbo (破天一步). Of course, considering the various divine techniques such as evasion ability, it’s hard to say which one has the upper hand, but it was also because he didn’t have the talent or time to learn another peerless divine technique up to the extreme.

However – the divine technique that the Shinto Master was showing now was also a form of Escape from Shadowless, so it was creepy to see that divine technique intermittently completely disappear. I had never heard of such a skill from the Shinto throne. Even if one had reached the extreme of Escape from Shadowless, how could one move as if they were erased from space itself? It was completely different from the special techniques that sorcerers and magicians used to shrink or teleport, so it could be said to be unidentified.

A new law that allows you to escape without a shadow, but not without a shadow. If not…

Dismissed!

As I was thinking, suddenly, with a flash of light, [the old ruler] Tezcatlipoca, who was before my eyes, disappeared.

” Huh!”

Did the new ruler replace the space with the new ruler? I thought so, but I soon realized that it wasn’t. Even so, the [old ruler] wouldn’t be so sloppy as to fall for the same method twice.

Dismissal

Soon, lightning flashed through the air again, and the new form of the [Old Ruler] appeared as if a wave was rising. However, there was something a little strange. Instead of emitting the tremendous magical power characteristic of the [Ruler], it seemed to just float in the distant sky and remain still.

‘ what?’

As I was tilting my head, Shintojijon suddenly appeared next to me.

“Ugh, ugh.”

He spoke, panting as if out of breath.

“I wish I could only use the new season…”

Whiriliririk –

And the moment his words ended, the form of the Shinto Master distorted and disappeared as if sucked into an invisible whirlwind. The moment the Shinto Master disappeared, I could see the entire surrounding space distorting and boiling chaos seething before my eyes. In the midst of the chaos boiling like lava, a dark mask rose up and began to shine alone.

Kiiing

[ The sacrifice has been offered. So I call upon the constellation, whose name is the Mask of Heaven. ]

A voice filled with solemn divinity rang out, and suddenly a gigantic monster appeared before my eyes. A mask floated above the monster’s head, then slowly disappeared as if it was seeping into the space between the eyebrows. The monster, with its hideous appearance like a giant demon dog, roared and charged forward.

[ Ughhhhhh!!]

Kwarreung

With a thunderous roar, the magic dog rushed in and attacked Tezcatlipoca!

Crunch

The winged serpent Tezcatlipoca nimbly bit the back of the Demon Dog’s neck, but the Demon Dog seemed to pay no attention and bit its opponent. While they were biting each other, Tezcatlipoca began to wrap his long body around the Demon Dog’s body. Even in the midst of this, a magical barrier swirled between the two, emitting a terrifying power.

As the bloody battle between monsters unfolded before my eyes, I had difficulty making good judgments about the situation.

‘What’s happening now?’

Where the hell did the new god go and how did he summon that demon dog?

While I was wondering, magical power resonated through my arm and I heard Dharma’s voice.

[Baek Woong-i. You are blocking it well. You too should join the Shintujijon.]

I answered Dharma in my head.

[Dalma!! What is happening now? How can that demon dog fight against [the old ruler]?]

[ Hmm… Of course, since they are the same [former rulers], that’s how it is. It seems very natural…]

[ ……?]

what?

What is this!

As I stood there dumbfounded, Dharma spoke.

[I don’t know how he did it, but that ruler is the master of a faraway constellation… I also know of that being from reading the grimoire, and he is one of the most famous beings… Wasn’t it you, Baekwoong, who summoned him…?]

[ No! I have never summoned anyone! The God of Shinto…]

[ Hmm… You said you offered a sacrifice… Let’s take a look…]

Dharma was silent for a moment and then said.

[ If this continues, the demon will lose… because that is nothing more than a projected shell… a power borrowed only for a very limited time…]

[ ……]

[Baek Woong, come and help.]

[Even if I wanted to help, I don’t have enough energy to go there and fight.]

I have used up a lot of my internal energy in the fight just now, so it is now impossible for me to use martial arts that can work on a god. It would be possible to fight by drawing on my willpower, but if my internal energy does not support it, I would have to draw on my true energy, which would drastically shorten my lifespan, and there was also the possibility of dying from weakness during the fight. As I spoke skeptically, the black arm suddenly began to glow.

Woo woo –

[ I will continue to give you strength. You are my apostle. Naturally, the strength will be shared with me, so use that magic to restore your strength…]

[ … okay!]

Paat

I flew straight to the battlefield in the state of the ultimate destruction of souls. Then, I drew out magical power from my magical arm and covered my entire body, and my entire body’s vitality recovered incredibly quickly, and my internal energy also increased rapidly.

‘Is it the same principle as Cheonryongdan?’

It seemed like the principle of magic power was to absorb the energy in the air. As soon as I arrived in the arena, I landed on the head of the fighting demon dog, and I heard the demon dog’s voice.

[ Junior, your judgment of the situation is slow. Or are you scared again? ]

A voice that sounded like mocking. I said it after confirming that the demon was the new master.

“How did you summon [the old ruler]?”

[ Hehe… Does this look like a summoning? You idiot… It’s a wonder how a thief who has reached the level of a divine fighter can be so incompetent.]

” ……”

Woodduck

The demon turned his head and bit the snake’s nape harder.

[You sacrificed your constellation and borrowed the mask of the [ruler] of that constellation. You could say that you temporarily projected the god of that constellation into this world through the mask.]

” oh…!!”

[ It can also be said that I have successfully ‘stealed’ the image of God through Mansangjitu. The mask was the medium, but if not me, who else could do something like this? Hehe.]

I was able to understand the situation through Shintojijon’s explanation.

And then he cried out in horror.

“This, this kid…!! The two constellations that were on my body…!!”

[I offered them all up as sacrifices. I don’t need them.]

” 개새끼야!!”

I ended up exploding with anger.

‘The constellation that Xiang Yu gave me!!’

The situation is clear. Shintojijon ‘stole’ the constellation that was in my body that had been switched and offered it to the god of that constellation through that link! Naturally, the god of that constellation would welcome it since it would be like receiving interest on the terminal, and in return, Shintojijon would be allowed to borrow the god’s mask.

If this happens, the two constellation terminals that Xiang Yu passed on to me before he died will be permanently destroyed. I couldn’t believe that he would do something like that while his body was switched. That power would definitely be useful in my next life!!

“Give it back now!!”

[I already gave it away so I can’t get it back~ Hehehe.]

“You son of a bitch… ugh…”

[Don’t dwell on the past and focus on what’s right in front of you, junior. You’re borrowing the power of the [former ruler] through illegal means, but you won’t be able to last long. If you lose the fight, it’s over anyway, so using everything you have to survive is the way of a thief.]

” ……”

I regained my composure at Shintujijon’s words. As he said, what has already happened cannot be helped. And it was also true that in order to survive, you must use everything you have.

‘But you, the culprit, shouldn’t be saying that…’

But my anger still didn’t subside, so I had no choice but to grind my teeth. I calmed my head and said.

“What should I do?”

[I said it before. It is a delusion to think that humans can subdue gods with their martial arts skills. You probably know why.]

“I know.”

I know this from countless previous experiences. The strongest in the human world, Yeo Dong-bin, the leader of the Baekryeon cult, Musashi, etc., have fought against gods and incarnations, but were ultimately defeated. Human martial arts can subdue the minions of the devil, but they cannot do anything about a true god. The words of the God of War continued.

[ If you can’t beat your opponent, you have no choice but to endure as long as possible or make it a draw. Running away is the best, but in this case, it’s better to endure. Enduring is easier than you think. ]

“Hold on…?”

[ Okay. If I get to this point, you understand. Just don’t do stupid things like you did before. ]

“Okay. I’ll try.”

I’m not very confident, but I have no choice. As I stood on the forehead of the demon dog and concentrated my mind, the words of the Great God continued.

[Even so, it is not right to just hold out. You need to keep a check.]

” how?”

[While I am biting this guy, head towards the space between the eyebrows of God. That is the spiritual peak of all existence, so it would be a good idea to attack that place.]

” I get it.”

Tadah!

I jumped forward. And the moment I jumped into the air between the magic dog and Tezcatlipoca biting each other, I could see a huge magical barrier and waves spreading out.

“……!!”

Phagec!!

I stretched out my magical arm to nullify the waves and curses, but unlike before, I couldn’t penetrate them properly. The attack from before must have been able to hit the main body because the opponent thought of me as an insect and let their guard down. Now that we were in a fight, the magical power was even more intense than before.

‘Oh my god! No!’

I did a somersault and then landed back on my back. It seemed to be true that the space between the eyebrows was the weak point, as the Shinto Master said, and it seemed to be the place where maximum concentration and defense were put into practice. I thought about what to do, but I realized that I had no time, so I gritted my teeth.

‘All or nothing.’

Since it has come to this, I will break through by any means necessary!

You must succeed even if it means risking your life.

“Go…”

I took the stance of Myeolhonbo with one arm forward. After filling up my entire body with internal energy, I purified my mind and summoned a heavenly sword in one hand. Then, as all my concentration reached its peak, I opened my eyes.

Breaking the sky one step at a time

Jjeong

Space is erased. A huge bell rings in my head, and the world shrinks. The moment I take a step, I feel the axis circling around my toes, and I feel like I am entering an indescribable world. My mind and body temporarily sublimate into another dimension… and it seems like I am placing this world beneath my feet.

This is the true final state of Myeolhonbo… Pacheon Ilbo!!

Boom!!

With a loud noise, I arrived on the water snake’s forehead with sparks on my shoes. The sparks that shot up quickly turned into lightning, crackling and splattering my brain, and I could feel my body slowly returning to reality.

‘It worked!!’

I was a bit hesitant, but it turned out that using the Pacheon Ilbo, it was possible to temporarily break through the opponent’s magic barrier! It seemed like the principle was ‘so fast that even a curse can’t reach it.’ I risked my life to shorten the distance by a mere twenty chapters, but I didn’t feel any regrets.

And as I was catching my breath for a moment, I heard Tezcatlipoca’s voice in my head.

[ That’s really interesting… What is that ability? It’s a superpower I’ve never seen before.]

It was a very relaxed voice. It seemed that Shintojijon had already figured out that the power he had gained through the mask would not last long. I spoke in a trembling voice, knowing that if I continued like this, I would die.

” … Great god, Tezcatlipoca. Please turn back from here.”

I gritted my teeth and said.

“We’re just trying to catch the sea god, so leave us alone. What do we care if a guy like that dies?”

[ Hehehe… That must be how it is. However, since the Sea God is the guardian of the Evil God and is not properly protected by the Evil God, he made a contract with us and offered us tribute. We will protect you according to the contract.]

huh?

The sea god is not protected by evil spirits?

It was a strange sound, but I shouted it again loudly because it wasn’t important at the moment.

“Please step back!! If you do so, I will offer you a great tribute.”

[ Hmm… Let me think about it. But.]

Tezcatlipoca continued speaking as if he was smiling.

[ Apostle. I wonder how far your strange abilities extend… Try to hold out as you promised. ]

” ……”

[ If I like your abilities, I will accept your request and step back…]

Kugugugu

Then, the space around me became distorted and hundreds of magic circles appeared at the same time. Each and every one of them was a curse, a spell, and a powerful magic. No matter how you looked at it, it was large enough to defeat even the Demon King in one hit.

No, I can’t. I’m going to die.

If something like that hits you… there’s no way out.

‘As expected [the old ruler]…’

I knew that there was only one way I could handle this situation with the strength I had at the moment, but I couldn’t be sure how far I could go, so my hands clenched and my spine trembled.

The divine position that I watched only once in my previous life.

However, my skills are still not even close to that caster’s abilities. If I want to catch up with him, I need at least hundreds of years of practice. Nevertheless, if I want to imitate that divine power, I have to unify my mind and body and maintain the utmost concentration without a single error.

Would it be possible?

Will it be possible for all martial artists to continue to achieve the realm that only legends dream of?

Suddenly, I realized what I was most afraid of.

‘ I see.’

What I fear most now is not the power of the [Old Ruler], nor is it being killed by that power. I just resent and fear myself for not being able to do my best and dying. I just hate myself for always dying a sudden death with such miserable talent.

If you do your best and die, there is no regret – but if it ends in mere self-satisfaction, you will not reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

‘ … Then let’s win.’

You can’t win.

Still, we must win.

In order to buy time and survive, the thing I must overcome is myself.

I overcome myself.

That is also the principle of martial arts.

Ss …

I held the sword and balanced it with the magical power of one arm. The power of the immortal demon will act as yin and yang and amplify its power. For now, there is no other way.

Unrivaled

And in the next moment, I began casting Musou-pae and releasing all the curses and magic. Amidst the endless attacks that seemed to have no end, I unified my mind and body, and a battle with no chance of victory began.

I will hold on.

Just like Jang Sam-bong, the true man who fought against the incarnation of God!
