Thunder God's Reincarnation-Chapter 281

While the golden sword qi annihilated all the Alpha Demonic Wolves, Mu-Gun closed in on Sirius, who was still sitting arrogantly on his throne.

Lightly extending his hand toward Mu-Gun, the Demon God sent out a wolf-shaped Demonic Qi Flare. Instead of dodging, Mu-Gun stretched out his left hand and unleashed the Heavenly Descent Thunder Strike. The huge golden hand suppressed the Wolf Flare, sending it crashing on the floor of the grand hall. It soon exploded under the pressure.

Sirius unleashed a few more Wolf Flares toward Mu-Gun. Imbued with divinity, they were as strong as the Alpha Demonic Wolves. However, none of them posed even the slightest threat to Mu-Gun. He jumped at the Wolf Flares and sent out a burst of golden light in all directions, piercing through the wolves.

“You bastard! You’re not just any normal incarnation!” Sirius exclaimed with a serious expression. Before Mu-Gun had realized it, the Demon God had gotten up from his throne.

Mu-Gun shrugged. “Of course not. I possess enough power to defeat your kind.”

“Impertinent bastard. I will show you the difference between a True God and an incarnation.”

Angered by Mu-Gun’s insult, Sirius rushed forward. He then used the Phantom Clone Art, a technique that used his authority to summon hundreds of clones that looked exactly like him, deceiving the opponent’s eyes.

The Demon God’s over-sixty-cheok-tall body split into hundreds of clones and instantly surrounded Mu-Gun. His Phantom Clone Art was so sophisticated that even with the Thunder God’s Heavenly Eyes, Mu-Gun still couldn’t tell the clones apart.

Due to his confidence in his eyes, Mu-Gun couldn’t help but be momentarily surprised. Maximizing on that brief weakness, The clones immediately attacked him. freewe bnovel .com

‘If I can’t tell the real one apart, then I’ll just wipe them all out.’

Mu-Gun summoned and sent forth as many golden swords as there were clones, annihilating the enemies at random. The golden sword qi unleashed by the Infinite Thunder Sword mercilessly pierced through the clones charging at Mu-Gun. The clones simply continued their attack, sustaining not even a scratch. Their lack of an actual body prevented them from being wounded, but it also disabled them from inflicting any damage themselves.

However, the real Demon God, who was hiding amongst those clones, could certainly harm him. Not knowing when the actual Demon God would attack, he could not just ignore the clones, even if they’d likely just phase through him.

Mu-Gun continued to control hundreds of golden sword qi, cutting and slashing the clones. His inability to inflict them any damage made him realize that excluding the ones unaffected by his attacks would eventually lead him to the real Demon God, able to find the Sirius Demon God’s main body.

However, it wasn’t as simple as it sounded. Instead of staying in one place, the clones moved at a speed that was impossible to track with the naked eye. Even the mighty Mu-Gun could not keep them all in track.

Mu-Gun gave up trying to find the needle in this haystack. To break through this Phantom Clone Art, he had to slice them all apart in one swing.

Mu-Gun immediately unleashed the Ultimate Thunder Sword in the form of the Hundred Golden Lightning Wheel Wave. The golden wheel of light circled Mu-Gun, who was still wearing the Dragon Scale Divine Armor.

Soon after, the golden wheel sent dozens of golden sword qi in all directions, piercing through the clones. Amid the distorted clones, an explosion soon erupted, revealing the real Demon God. Mu-Gun immediately summoned another Ultimate Thunder Sword and chased after him.

The incomparably larger and more powerful golden sword qi flew toward Sirius. Having just shaken off the impact of the previous onslaught, Sirius’s jaw dropped, taken aback by the incoming attack.

Like a waterfall, a Demonic Qi Flare gushed out of the Demon God’s mouth and collided with the golden sword qi. Explosions erupted as his attack was shattered, allowing the golden sword to change trajectory and burrow toward his mouth.

The Demon God hurriedly raised both hands and summoned a bunch of wolves made of demonic qi. As the Wolf Flares threw themselves at the golden sword qi, he quickly distanced himself from the incoming attack. However, the golden sword qi swiftly wiped out the Wolf Flares and resumed chasing after its main target.

Realizing that dodging it would be futile, he mustered all his demonic divinity and manifested a Wolf Flare bigger and stronger than the previous ones. With its fangs bared, it lunged at the golden sword qi.

The collision’ terrifying shockwave spread in all directions, causing the entire castle to crumble. At the same time, Mu-Gun sent a thousand golden sword qi to perish together with the Wolf Flare, then immediately used the Heavenly Thunder Storm Burst.

Petrified by the shower of golden sword qi raining down on the collapsing building, the Demon God failed to react in time. A thousand golden sword qi hit him, resulting in countless explosions.

The chaos soon subsided, revealing the devastation that the attack had caused. In the middle of the desolated area, which had sunk hundreds of deep into the ground, was the Demon God. Countless golden sword were embedded all over him.

Mu-Gun jumped onto the sunken ground and made sure the Demon God was dead. No longer sensing powerful demonic qi from him, he concluded that he had emerged victorious.

Following the traces of demonic qi coming from the Demon God’s chest, he found a Demonic Divinity Bead, which contained the demonic divinity of a Demon God. It was similar to the Mana Hearts of monsters in Avalon.

The Demonic Divinity Bead was the essence of demonic divinity. Anyone who consumed it would find themselves with the desire to destroy the universe's whole creation—and the power to realize that desire. Something this evil should not exist in the world.

Just before Mu-Gun could get rid of it, he suddenly wondered if it could be purified, like a monster’s Mana Heart. However, he soon shook his head. Divinity and demonic divinity were opposites. If a being with divinity absorbed a Demonic Divinity Bead, it would cause a collision between the two energies, which in turn could break their soul.

There was a saying that opposite extremes surprisingly had many things in common, but he would rather not risk tearing his soul apart.

Mu-Gun mustered the last of his strength and summoned another Ultimate Thunder Sword. When he thrust it into the bead, the demonic divinity’s essence it contained rampaged in a frantic attempt to escape. In response, the bright light of the golden sword qi wrapped around it, burning and tearing it apart until not even a trace of it was left.

Immediately after the death of Demon God Sirius, a cave appeared at the demon castle. After destroying the Demonic Divinity Bead, Mu-Gun walked into it with Immortal Hyun Gwang, who had been waiting outside the castle.

The cave led them back to the same place they entered. Even after Mu-Gun and Hyun Gwang came out, it remained open.

“Will this cave just keep existing now?”

“It will probably dissipate over time,” Mu-Gun replied.

“I see. It worries me that caves like this might have opened in other places.” Hyun Gwang said worryingly.

“Your concern is not unfounded. There is probably another somewhere out there.”

“Can you locate it?” Hyun Gwang asked out of curiosity.

“It might be difficult to do, but there is a way,” Mu-Gun said firmly.

“Really?”

“Yes. Anyway, we have to find the caves and eliminate the Demon God and the demonic beasts inside them before they completely open and connect a part of the Hell Realm to our world.”

“Can you do that alone? Even Supreme-Realm masters might not be able to take out all the demonic beasts inside those caves unless a lot of them work together.”

“I will try my best. It would be best for us to head back to the Purple Heaven Palace and let them know about the situation. We can formulate plans from there.”

“I agree.”

Mu-Gun and Hyun Gwang returned to the Purple Heaven Palace. Before they did, Hyun Gwang told the ascetics guarding the cave to never enter it.

Meanwhile, Mu-Gun opened the Spirit Realm and summoned all wind and earth spirits. He then instructed them to locate any other caves connected to the Hell Realm.

The spirits immediately scattered throughout the Central Plains and carried out their orders.

After returning to the Wudang Sect’s Purple Heaven Palace, Mu-Gun and Hyun Gwang met with Supreme Elder Hyun Cheon and told him about what happened in the cave. Hyun Cheon found their narrative hard to believe, but he couldn’t think of a reason for the two to lie.

“So, to sum it all up, the Thirty-Six Demon Gods—the rulers of another dimension called the Hell Realm—are trying to descend into our world to destroy it, and the cave that appeared in Mount Wudang is the pathway that connects their territories to the Central Plains?” Hyun Cheon asked.

“That’s correct.” Mu-Gun responded.

“If so, then there is a high possibility that similar caves have opened elsewhere,” Hyun Cheon concluded.

“Yes.”

“I know we have to prioritize finding them, but this world is far too vast. How do we even tackle this?”

“Fortunately, Young Master Baek has a plan,” Hyun Gwang responded.

Hyun Cheon turned to Mu-Gun. “Really?”

“Yes. It’s hard for me to explain in detail, but I have a way to quickly and accurately search through the Central Plains. I’m doing it as we speak.”

“I see. You saved us from the threat of the Nine Celestial Demons Sect, and now this. You truly are the savior of this world, Young Master Baek.”

“You praise me too much. Anyway, we should ask the other sects and families if they have discovered sites similar to the cave in Mount Wudang.”

“I’ll talk to the Nine Prominent Sects and the Seven Great Families. I have to inform them of the Hell Realm’s threat and discuss countermeasures with them anyway.”

“Thank you, Supreme Elder.”

Considering the power of the Hell Realm’s Demon Gods and demonic beasts, not even gathering all martial arts masters of murim would be of much help to him. Nevertheless, it was better than nothing.

After entrusting the mobilization of the Central Plains Murim Alliance, including the Nine Prominent Sects and the Seven Great Families, to Hyun Cheon, Mu-Gun and his wives returned to the Baek Sword Sect’s manor, no longer able to continue their trip due to the pressing situation.

Riding on wind spirits, the three reached Shaoxing in three days.
