Thunder God's Reincarnation

Chapter 213

Baek Mu-Gun stood at the forefront of the Central Plains Murim Alliances forces, followed closely by the Absolute-Realm masters. Rather than standing back and observing first, they planned to stand at the front and fight with all their might right from the very beginning of their battle.

Witnessing the Absolute-Realm masters take the lead in the battle boosted the morale of the Central Plains Murim Alliances martial artists.

However, the Nine Celestial Demons Sect employed the same tactic, advancing with the Demonic Monarchs and the Higher Demons at the forefront. The six Divine Demons were positioned slightly behind them, but they could still come forward at any moment.

As the distance between the Central Plains Murim Alliance and the Nine Celestial Demons Sect rapidly narrowed, those leading the charge looked at each other. When the six Divine Demons finally saw Mu-Gun, they immediately instructed the Demonic Monarchs and Higher Demons to consume Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills. Without hesitation, their subordinates did as commanded, causing a blood-red aura to rise like a haze around them.

Confirming that the Demonic Monarchs and Higher Demons exuded amplified energy, Mu-Gun immediately soared into the sky. Enveloped in golden lightning qi, he quickly flew through the air and reached the Nine Celestial Demons Sects campsite. At the same time, the twenty-seven Demonic Monarchs simultaneously attacked him, their vajra qi covering the area and storming toward him.

Be careful!

No!

The Central Plains Murim Alliances martial arts masters shouted. From their perspective, even Mu-Gun would find it difficult to block all of the attacks.

Unfazed, Mu-Gun just calmly positioned the Flying Golden Shield in front of him and unleashed waves of golden Thunder God Qi from it, creating a huge barrier. A thunderous roar echoed when the Demonic Monarchs vajra qi crashed onto it.

Those witnessing the scene thought the golden shield would easily break apart, appearing too feeble to block the barrage of vajra qi. However, they soon realized how wrong they were. The golden shield did not even shake or merely stop the attacks. Rather, it reflected them.

The vajra qi rained down on the Nine Celestial Demons Sects campsite, causing huge explosions that claimed the lives of numerous demonic practitioners wherever they landed.

This is insane!

What is happening?!

Impossible!

The Divine Demons were shocked. As far as they knew about martial arts, what Mu-Gun had just done should have been impossible. He did not just block simultaneous Supreme-Realm levels of attacks but even counterattacked by deflecting them back.

The only way they could explain Mu-Guns martial prowess right now was that he had activated the Thunder Gods Descent. Otherwise, he could not have done such a featno, even if he did use the skill, it would not make the current level of his martial arts any less surprising.

The Demonic Monarchs were so flustered that their train of thought momentarily froze.

Everyone, get a grip! one of the Divine Demons yelled, quickly bringing the Demonic Monarchs back to their senses as Mu-Gun landed in front of them. They rushed toward and attacked him again, but he turned into a ray of light and disappeared before they could reach him. After a while, he reappeared beside one of the Demonic Monarchs at the very back.

Sensing Mu-Guns presence, the Demonic Monarch hastily turned and tried to attack him, but Mu-Guns hand, covered in golden lightning, pierced through his head before he could. The Heavenly Descent Thunder Strike broke apart the Demonic Monarchs head like tofu.

The other Demonic Monarchs tried to launch another offensive upon finally finding Mu-Gun, but he turned into a stream of lightning and vanished into thin air again. He reappeared in a completely different area and killed another Demonic Monarch in the same way as before.

Mu-Gun repeated the same tactic a couple more times. Although his strategy was straightforward, it still rendered the Demonic Monarchs helpless against him since they could not keep up with him at all. It did not take long for him to reduce their numbers to less than half.

We cant let this keep up. Let us take matters into our own hands, Hyeok Ryeon-Pae told So Geuk-Sang with a hardened expression as he witnessed the Demonic Monarchs get annihilated.

I agree. Geuk-Sang nodded, finding no other option.

We will buy as much time as we can. Please do not let our sacrifice go to waste. Ryeon-Pae looked back at the other Divine Demons.

Fear not. We will do whatever it takes to conquer the Central Plains and turn the Nine Celestial Demons Sects world into reality, Gal Cheon-Dok replied.

Ryeon-Pae nodded and turned to Geuk-Sang. Ready?

Geuk-Sang nodded as well, his strong determination evident in his gaze. The two took out Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills and consumed it without second thoughts. Strong energy coursed through their veins as they absorbed the pills, the immense power making them shudder.

Ryeon-Pae and Geuk-Sang were now convinced. With the power they had right now, they could easily defeat Mu-Gun even if he resorted to the Thunder Gods Descent. The two made their way to him as he killed five more Demonic Monarchs.

We should prepare as well, Cheon-Dok told the other Divine Demons as he watched Ryeon-Pae and Geuk-Sang take off.

The Divine Demons nodded and began preparing to activate their transcendental martial arts. Jong Ja-Ryang, who needed more time than the others to activate his, immediately started executing it.

Mu-Gun, who was still relentlessly killing the Demonic Monarchs, sensed and turned toward two powerful energies approaching him, finding Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Hyeok Ryeon-Pae and Invincible Divine Demon So Geuk-Sang enveloped with fiery vajra qi.

Mu-Gun had never fought Geuk-Sang, but he had already faced Ryeon-Pae once before. Sensing that Ryeon-Paes energy was far more intense than back then, he realized that the two Divine Demons had consumed Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills.

This is quite unexpected.

Mu-Gun could not help but be surprised by Ryeon-Pae and Geuk-Sangs determination to willingly die for the Nine Celestial Demons Sects great cause. However, that was all there was to it. Nothing had changed.

Mu-Gun extended his arm toward the two men and sent a huge wave of lightning falling above them. Having activated the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star, Ryeon-Pae soared up and tried to block it, but it sent him plummeting to the ground instead.

Surprised by the power that the lightning contained, Geuk-Sang immediately used the Invincible Shadow Clones[1], his transcendental martial art. Two clones split from him. Considering each one possessed all of his abilities, there were essentially three Geuk-Sang now.

Seeing him create clones, Mu-Gun immediately identified Geuk-Sang as the Invincible Clans patriarch. Since he already knew about the Invincible Shadow Clones, seeing it in person did not surprise him at all.

Geuk-Sang and his clones immediately assumed a triangle formation with Mu-Gun in the center. They then executed the Invincible Soul-Shattering Fists, sending gigantic fist energies covered with dozens of layers of qi toward Mu-Gun.

Feeling enormous pressure from their attacks, Mu-Gun unleashed a wave of golden Thunder God Qi. It surged in every direction and crashed onto the fist energies, causing them to crack and eventually shatter. The Thunder God Qi then continued to spread toward Geuk-Sang and his clones.

Shocked, the Geuk-Sangs immediately stepped away. At the same time, Ryeon-Pae, covered in a layer of black flame-like vajra qi, shot forward like a cannonball in hopes of crashing into Mu-Gun. He split apart the Thunder God Qi, which could not overpower his Blade-Crazed Divine Demon Star.

Mu-Gun extended his right palm toward Ryeon-Pae and fired a palm energy made of golden lightning. From just the size of his palm, it infinitely grew larger as it shot forward, eventually becoming several times bigger than Ryeon-Pae.

Ryeon-Paes expression hardened as the hand energy mercilessly struck him down, squashing him before he could even dodge. To make matters worse, instead of dissipating, the hand energy rose and hit him again, burying him even deeper than the first time he was sent crashing onto the ground.

Consecutively struck by the hand energy, Ryeon-Pae felt his consciousness blurring away. The Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star was still active, but the golden lightning easily phased through it and electrocuted him. One more hit and his transcendental martial art would be destroyed.

Mu-Gun tried to kill Ryeon-Pae once and for all, but the other Divine Demon did not just sit by and watch. Geuk-Sang and his clones jumped toward him and sent more Invincible Soul-Shattering Fists at him. However, Mu-Gun easily dodged by transforming into a stream of lightning.

As Mu-Gun disappeared, Geuk-Sang prepared against his counterattack. Mu-Gun appeared behind one of the three bodies and immediately hit him with the Heavenly Descent Thunder Strike.

Unlike the Demonic Monarchs, who were helpless against Mu-Gun, Geuk-Sang immediately turned around and managed to strike back, hitting the Heavenly Descent Thunder Strike with an Invincible Soul-Shattering Fist. Nevertheless, the resulting collision still blasted him away. Not only did he react a beat late despite managing to defend himself, but his martial arts was also far too weak compared to Mu-Guns.

Mu-Gun stretched out his arm toward the Geuk-Sang he was targeting and sent a huge lightning bolt crashing from the sky above him. Before Geuk-Sang could do anything, the lightning bolt struck him and embedded him into the ground, crushing his body beyond recognition.

The remaining Geuk-Sangs rushed toward Mu-Gun from two different directions, unable to suppress their anger. In response, Mu-Gun unsheathed his sword and swung it at them faster than they could react, sending Celestial Moonlight Sword toward them. Like a torrent, moonlight qi made of golden lightning coursed out to his flanks.

Instead of dodging, the Geuk-Sangs pierced through it with Invincible Soul-Shattering Fists. However, by the time they were done, Mu-Gun had already turned into lightning and reappeared behind the Geuk-Sang to his left.

Using the golden moonlight qi to block his opponents view, Mu-Gun grabbed his targets back. Geuk-Sang turned around and tried to defend, but before he could, Mu-Gun shattered his head using the Heavenly Descent Thunder Strike.
