Reincarnated Swordmaster - Chapter 947

947====================
True empty hometown
After Master Dharma declared the vacuum incense, he called his four disciples and said:
[You should lead the believers one step ahead to their hometown.]
” ……”
At those words, the eldest disciple, Hyega, quietly bowed with one hand, but the other three disciples flinched greatly. However, soon all three of them made up their minds and answered loudly.
“Okay, Master!!”
Tadot
They approached the believers using the lightness technique they had learned from me. I looked at them and asked Master Dharma.
“What do you mean by leading to fragrance?”
[ Now this world will perish. But perishing means death, and terrible suffering will follow… I want to relieve the despair and suffering of my followers who believed in me and followed me.]
” … no way!”
That’s when I was surprised.
Woof woof
A pure white light began to flow from the bodies of the believers who had knelt on the floor in a prayer posture. The disciples of Dharma standing in front of them began to recite a spell.
Slap
Slap
People began to lose their lives and fall here and there. And the believers held hands with faint smiles as they died. I had never even imagined the scene of hundreds and thousands of people dying, regardless of age or gender.
I looked at that sight, then turned to Dharma and shouted.
“Dalma!! Could it be you…”
[… I engraved my master’s seal on the followers. When the spell is cast, they will die immediately and painlessly and comfortably, and their souls will become my possession… That is the contract I made with the followers of the White Lotus Sect and the leader of the Sect.]
Ssssssss
And I could see with my own eyes the life force and soul flowing out of the bodies of the dead and being absorbed into the body of Dharma. Dharma, who absorbed the souls of the dead, felt his body growing bigger and bigger, and he even became like a giant. I stared at Dharma and said.
“If your soul is absorbed by another being, you will never be able to find peace. Do you think that you have fulfilled your responsibility to them by simply relieving them of their suffering during their lifetime?”
As an expert in divorce law, I can say that if there is no separate space for the soul to rest like the afterlife, and another being absorbs or controls the soul, the soul’s vessel will inevitably crack and the soul will feel pain. Of course, the moment it becomes a soul, the physical pain will disappear, but an indescribable mental gloom and anxiety will cover the soul.
In the long run, it was no different from going to hell anyway. That’s why divorce law is considered witchcraft, and those who practice divorce law that plays with souls are called devils in the martial arts world.
Dharma responded bitterly to my words.
[ Anyway… It won’t take long until the end… It’s just the minimum consideration…]
” ……”
I could guess what Dharma was thinking. He probably thought that it would be better for the world to end in death without knowing anything than for a living being to suffer the revelation of the end and the overwhelming despair. And that was right.
Dharma’s actions were undoubtedly demonic, but at the root of them was a minimum of conscience toward humans. I could not bear to criticize Dharma.
While I was silent, four disciples finished their work and came over. Then Huang Yu spoke to Dharma in a slightly frightened voice.
“S, Master.”
[ Hwang Woo-yeo… why are you doing that? ]
“Me too… please kill me.”
The yellow-haired man was trembling, his teeth chattering. His pupils were shaking as if there was an earthquake, and he looked anxious. It was clear that he was overcome by a terrible fear just from seeing the apocalyptic revelation floating in the sky.
“Actually, I was always skeptical of what the Master said… It’s true that I became his disciple because I was jealous of his supernatural powers and authority, and wanted to get some of his benefits…”
[I see…]
“But… I’m too scared right now. I have no more attachment to the riches and honor of life, so please leave me alone!!”
[ ……]
Master Dharma, who was staring blankly at Huang Wu, who was asking for a peaceful death, looked around at the other three disciples and said.
[Do you think the same…?]
Then, Princess Ayuta and Seongjin, who had been hesitating, also nodded their heads.
” yes.”
“I want to be comfortable.”
They too seemed unable to hide their immense fear. They were men of extraordinary mental strength, as I had taught them, but they barely managed to avoid going mad. The despair that was already falling on this world was at a level that humans could not endure.
The only exception was Hye-ga. Hye-ga’s eyes alone were deeply sunken and unmoved, and his eyes were eyes that had already acknowledged and accepted death. As someone who had died many times, I couldn’t help but be surprised at Hye-ga’s eyes.
‘Oh my… You’ve never died, so how can you not feel even a little fear of death? You can achieve such cultivation in just one life!’
Those eyes were different from the reckless and courageous overcoming of death. As a reincarnated person who had experienced death dozens of times, I knew this instinctively. Hyega’s eyes held patience, wisdom, and enlightenment that rivaled those of reincarnated people. She was a visionary who truly realized that death and life were no different.
And Dharma, who met Hye-ga’s eyes, smiled with satisfaction.
[ … I am proud to have you as my disciple…]
“Amitabha.”
Dharma looked at his disciples and said.
[ I am sorry, my disciples… You are my direct disciples… There is work I must do before the end… I hope you can endure the despair and fear you are experiencing just a little longer…]
“Master, what should we do?”
[You… will make a contract with the spirits of this world and serve them.]
“……?”
Everyone looked puzzled. It was obvious that they thought Bodhidharma was talking nonsense. However, Bodhidharma waved his hand in the air for a moment, as if to show that what he was saying was not nonsense, and at the same time, a seal appeared on the foreheads of the four disciples.
Cheeeeek!!
There was a burning smell as if a hot brand was being branded on the flesh. However, the disciples receiving the seal did not feel much pain, but rather had a prickly expression on their faces. Soon, when the seal was all engraved, Bodhidharma spoke.
[The primordial spirits that have been with this world since its birth… Call upon their power and make it yours… Their attributes are earth, water, fire, and wind.]
Kiiing
As the light shone, the disciples concentrated their minds and after a while, incredible natural power began to enter their bodies. The primordial power of nature began to swirl into each of their bodies, and they soon seemed to stabilize and control the power.
Wheeing
Seongjin summoned the wind from his hand as if he was controlling the properties of the wind. He looked at his hand as if it was amazing, and soon the other disciples also began to control the power of nature in earnest. Bodhidharma, who had given great power to his disciples, spoke.
[Surround me in all four directions… Until the production of the Dharma is finished, you will become the four pillars and protect me.]
” All right!”
[Take these weapons…]
Dharma seemed to have given them fake Four Great Gods as a bonus. They were weapons with no special abilities, but it seemed like they were meant to be used to fight with the power of nature.
They seemed to have completely dispelled all the anxiety and fear they had felt just a moment ago, perhaps because they had gained powers that were beyond human capabilities. Soon, the four disciples dispersed in all directions and took the form of guarding the altar, and Dharma spoke to me.
[Baek Woong-yi. Your role is the most important…]
“What should I do?”
[ … Hmm, now is not the time… I’ll tell you later… For now, be on guard against your surroundings.]
“Tell me what the situation is now. I understand that signs have appeared, but are the [Old Rulers] coming to destroy us right now?”
Dharma shook his head at my question.
[ … ‘sign’ is a phenomenon that means… the great omniscient ‘agrees’ with [the Father] to destroy the entire universe… In other words… the reason why the [old rulers] are now appearing in the sky and the constellations are burning… means that the [old rulers] are also perplexed… because the universe will be destroyed soon and they do not know who did such a thing…]
” aha.”
I could understand the current situation through Dharma’s explanation.
In other words, a ‘sign’ is a phenomenon that means that the destruction of the universe is not far away! According to what I saw during my previous life, the [old rulers] were also afraid of being destroyed due to the destruction of the universe, so it was only natural that they would be perplexed when they saw the ‘sign’.
“Did the [Old Rulers] burn the constellations like they did just now to find out who wanted the destruction of the universe after seeing the ‘sign’?”
[ Yes… They will find out who did it… and eliminate the sorcerer to prevent the destruction of the universe… And since the [Old Rulers] have realized that there is a sorcerer in this world, they will soon begin taking action…]
“Hmm.”
I frowned.
“What if the rulers don’t bother to find us and just destroy the planet?”
[ No… I can’t do that so rashly…]
” why?”
[ If it is the level of the sorcerer who created the wish for the destruction of the universe, then they must also have guessed that it is by no means the level of a mortal… At least a sorcerer who can access the [Void Record]… Even the [Old Rulers] must already know how strong I am… If they rashly destroy this planet, Earth, they will think that I will hide in an even deeper dimension and be hard to find… In fact, I can leap through space and time…]
” hmm.”
Indeed, it is Master Dharma.
It is so believable that someone possesses the powers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
[ Right now they are… watching this planet… searching through everything suspicious, from the smallest bug to the continent’s holy heavens… And when I start making the law, that’s when the fighting will begin…]
That’s the situation.
I nodded and said.
“Wait a minute… So what happens if I don’t do any legal work and just pass the time?”
[ [The old rulers] will not tolerate it any longer and will destroy the world… There is no benefit to us in wasting time.]
“Ugh… I see. Then let’s try making a Dharma talk.”
[ ……]
” why?”
I asked back as Master Dharma stared at me blankly. He seemed as if he was about to perform some great magic at any moment, but he was just looking at me without doing anything. Then Master Dharma spoke.
[I promised you a while ago that I would return the Four Great Gods to you… but I didn’t tell you how to return it… Are you not asking me how…?]
I answered Master Dharma’s question lightly.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me. Since I’ve come this far, I’ll go with you till the end.”
[ ……]
Master Dharma spoke in silence.
[ If this vacuum incense burner you’re about to experience is the complete end… you might not be able to start your life again…?]
” … what?”
What did Master Dharma just say?
Master Dharma’s words may have touched the greatest nerve for me. No, I almost guessed it!
‘Sir, no way…’
Do you know that I have the ability to reincarnate?!
I was flustered, but I tried my best to control my emotions without changing my facial expression. When I showed no reaction, Master Dharma looked at me blankly and said.
[ You are… prepared… but not perfect… ]
” ……”
Master Dharma laughed and slowly walked forward.
[ I will keep my promise to you…]
Ttukbuk
Ttukbuk
I couldn’t take my eyes off his steps.
And he climbed to the top of the largest altar in the center of the White Lotus Sect, stretched out both hands to the sky, and said.
[Father, foolish and blind! Beginning and end of the universe! I truly thank You for answering my wildest wish. I know that it is not my will for this world to perish, but only Your holy intention. How can a weak and feeble human being penetrate the laws of the universe and know the will of God?
But even so, this creature wishes. I dedicate my life and soul to wishing. I truly wish for the perfect annihilation of the universe, so that this world will no longer be subject to reincarnation, so that the endless chaos created by the willful beings will not continue for eternity!!]
Chook
The tips of Dharma’s fingers began to melt. He let out a blood-curdling scream, not caring about his own hands turning into black masses of fog.
[Three thousand worlds, be destroyed!! I, Dharma, will testify to destruction with the dharma of the Mother of No-Life!!]
Hurrruk!!
At that moment, a huge flame seemed to rise from the direction the four disciples were occupying. Then, a strange chaotic light began to flash above Dharma’s head, and the light grew larger and larger, as if gathering all the chaos of the world into one place, and began to suck everything in.
Thump!
Thump!!
‘Huk… Huk… Why is it like this…’
The moment I saw that light, I felt my heart pounding like crazy. I didn’t know why, but I felt like I had seen that light before. And then the chaotic light gradually became refined, and began to form the shape of a giant book.
Chijijik
grasp!!
As if the thunderbolt was boiling, chaos flashed in the air, and a piece was created and attached to a corner of the book. The size of the piece seemed to be about 10% of the book, and it seemed that if all the pieces were attached in this way to complete the book, the Dharma of the Mother of No Life would be completed.
Choaaaak
Meanwhile, Dharma’s body continued to melt. One hand had completely disappeared down to the forearm, and the other hand had disappeared up to the palm. And the body that had disappeared had become a fog of chaos, enveloping the dharma, and it seemed as if Dharma was trying to melt his own body to create the dharma.
‘Um… Wait a minute…’
I was watching the scene and realized something strange. So I shouted.
“Dalma!! You didn’t tell me what to do!!”
But Dharma did not answer at all, as if he had entered a state of great concentration.
What the hell!
It is clear that I must protect him until Dharma completes this ritual, but does that mean I should just confront the [Old Ruler] with my bare body? Even if I have reached the absolute state, that is absolutely impossible! It would be suicidal to think that the [Old Ruler] who are trying to avoid destruction from all over the universe are rushing in in droves.
That was the time.
Kookwakwakwakwang!!
With a loud noise that seemed to shatter the heavens and earth, a wave of darkness fell from the sky and covered the entire area. And as the wave of darkness swept over, the pillars created by the four disciples in their respective directions with their natural powers seemed to act as a barrier and completely withstand the wave.
I looked at Seongjin. Seongjin, who had been controlling the power of the wind in the north, had lost his human form and his entire body had turned into a ball of air like a wind spirit.
And the wind spirit that had taken over Seongjin’s body shouted to Dharma.
[ What is this… Our ancient gods have been magically captured and imprisoned in human bodies!! Wizard, return us to how we were immediately! ]
