Thunder God's Reincarnation

Chapter 147

Baek Mu-Gun departed from the Baek Sword Sect and traveled day and night since he would not make it in time if he did not hurry. Fifteen days normally would not be enough time to reach Mount Yuhua from Wenzhou, but that was one of the countermeasures the Heavenly Killer Sect used to prevent Mu-Gun from coming up with any tricks.

Mu-Gun arrived at Mount Yuhua thirteen days after he departed from Wenzhou. However, instead of immediately climbing it, Mu-Gun circulated his qi to ensure that he was in peak physical condition. Heading to the entrance of Yuhua Peak, which the Heavenly Killer Sects messenger mentioned, he found a demonic practitioner waiting for him. The man reeked of thick demonic qi. Mu-Gun quickly studied him. Judging from his energy, the man seemed to be in the Upper Peak Realm.

Deadly Shadow Sword Demon Jeok Pung, the man waiting for him, was one of the Higher Demons under the command of Life-Stealing Demonic Monarch Bi Jong-Hae, a member of the Heavenly Killer Six Monarchs.

Are you the Golden Shield Sword Dragon? Deadly Shadow Sword Demon, Jeok Pung scrutinized Mu-Gun.

Thats right.

Did you bring anyone with you?

I came alone. Where is Lady So?

Dont worry. Shes still safe. However, if anyone other than you approaches this place, we will immediately kill her.

I already told you that I am alone. Now, take me to her.

You seem to care about her a lot. Then again, she is a rare beauty.

Enough with your nonsense. Just lead the way.

You are in no position to act so recklessly.

Well, if I head back now, youll be the one suffering the most losses, Mu-Gun threatened.

That wont do.

Then dont waste my time and lead the way.

Lets see how long you can keep up that act. Deadly Shadow Sword Demon Jeok Pung began climbing up Yuhua Peak.

Mu-Gun spread out his qi senses as he followed behind him to determine how many enemies were in hiding, which was a crucial factor in choosing the best escape route once he had saved So Yeon-Hwa. However, throughout their long ascent, he did not detect any energy. It seemed the enemy had concentrated their forces where Yeon-Hwa was held captive.

The demonic practitioner led Mu-Gun to a basin-shaped valley blocked by ridges on all four sides. The deadly terrain was perfect for a siege.

This wont be easy.

Mu-Gun realized that the Heavenly Killer Sect had pulled out all the stops to kill him. Even though he had not detected them yet, the forces they brought would no doubt be formidable. In fact, the moment he entered the valley, Mu-Gun detected various energy sources hiding in layers in all directions. He roughly estimated their numbers to be around five hundred.

Now thats the expression I want to see, Deadly Shadow Sword Demon Jeok Pung provokingly said when he glanced back.

Shut up and lead the way, Mu-Gun said.

Keke.Jeok Pungs unpleasant chuckle affected Mu-Guns mood so much that Mu-Gun had to exert extra effort to suppress his desire to kill him.

Upon entering the valley, Mu-Gun saw Yeon-Hwa tied to a tree deep inside it, her head hanging low. Next to the tree she was tied to were two demonic practitioners.

Mu-Gun tried to approach her immediately.

Stop! I have not told you that you can go to her yet. Jeok Pung immediately restrained Mu-Gun.

I have to see for myself if she is alive.

We will confirm that for you. Jeok Pung gestured toward the man keeping an eye on Yeon-Hwa. In response, the man stabbed a dagger into Yeon-Hwas thigh.

Arghhh!

Yeon-Hwa, who had lost consciousness, woke up screaming due to the pain.

What do you think youre doing?

Mu-Gun tried to come closer in anger, but Jeok Pung raised his arm and blocked his path.

Move one more step, and the bitch dies, Jeok-Pung warned Mu-Gun.

What do you want?

Lay down your weapons. Only then will I allow you to go to that bitch.

You want me to do what?

If you dont want to, then we can just kill that woman instead.

You bastards will all die too, then.

We can kill you before you can even do anything. Jeok Pung mockingly laughed.

Pretending to be worried, Mu-Gun looked sideways at the two demonic practitioners who were keeping watch of Yeon-Hwa. They were not on high alert since they thought that Mu-Gun could not do anything due to the distance between them.

Mu-Gun was seventy feet away from the two guards. Despite how Mu-Gun was, they would still have enough time to hurt Yeon-Hwa the moment he moved. However, Mu-Gun could simply use Thunderbolt Swords to kill them in one blow while they were off guard.

It seems the woman is not as important to you as we thought.

Noticing Mu-Gun was lost in thought, Jeok Pung turned to the two guards to threaten Mu-Gun into putting his weapons down. However, Mu-Gun used the moment Jeok Pung shifted his gaze as an opportunity instead.

He raised his left hand and unleashed two golden Thunderbolt Swords.

Watch out!

Jeok Pung shouted, but he noticed Mu-Guns attack too late. The golden Thunderbolt Swords had already pierced through the two demonic practitioners chests, blasting them back and sending them crashing to the ground.

The unexpected situation flustered Jeok Pung. When his survival instincts kicked in, he hurriedly dashed away from Mu-Gun to widen the distance between them. It was useless, however. After all, Mu-Gun could even kill two people seventy feet away from him.

Mu-Gun raised his palm and fired a golden Thunderbolt Sword at Jeok Pung. Jeok Pung tried to evade it as soon as it appeared, but by the time he had thought about dodging it, the golden Thunderbolt Sword had already penetrated his chest. Like what happened to the demonic practitioners guarding Yeon-Hwa, the Thunderbolt Sword also pierced through Jeok Pungs chest and blasted him to one side of the valley.

After eliminating the Deadly Shadow Sword Demon, Mu-Gun immediately dashed to Yeon-Hwas side and cut off the rope that bound her to the tree. When Yeon-Hwa feebly fell forward, Mu-Gun quickly caught her.

Are you okay?

How stupid. Why did you come here even though you knew this is a trap laid out to kill you? Yeon-Hwa reprimanded Mu-Gun.

Isnt it obvious? I came to save you.

Who am I for you to risk your life?

How can I turn a blind eye to this when Im the reason this happened? Even if that isnt the case, I cant just let you die. Mu-Gun said.

What about me, then? You almost died because of me. Do you think I would feel good about that?

Who said anything about dying? Stop worrying already. I will get you out of here. Mu-Gun helped Yeon-Hwa to her feet.

Just run away on your own. I will only slow you down.

Yeon-Hwa could not even stand properly due to the wounds on both her legs and because they sealed her veins when she was captured.

If I were going to do that, I would not have come in the first place. Anyway, eat this. Mu-Gun took out a Medicine King Pill and fed it to Yeon-Hwa. Yeon-Hwa did not know what it was, but she ate it anyway.

Meanwhile, the people hiding all over the place sprang into action. Assassins came into view and threw hidden weapons at Mu-Gun and Yeon-Hwa. The hidden weapons all came flying at different speeds and trajectories, but they were all accurately aimed toward Mu-Gun and did not hit each other. No matter how fast one defended, ordinary martial arts could never block all the hidden weapons simultaneously launched toward them from all sides. However, Mu-Gun had the Heavenly Descent Thunder God Sword Art.

Golden lightning enveloped Mu-Gun as he executed the Hundred Golden Lightning Wheel Wave, which was the Heavenly Descent Thunder God Sword Arts fourth technique. A hundred golden Thunderbolt Swords appeared and began to revolve around Mu-Gun and Yeon-Hwa, forming a giant golden wheel that completely shattered the weapons thrown at them, trace and all.

The giant golden wheel then shifted from defense to offense, sending the hundred golden Thunderbolt Swords toward the assassins. Although greatly surprised when the tides of the battle turned, the assassins still tried to evade. However, the incomparably faster golden Thunderbolt Swords still mercilessly stabbed through them, killing over fifty assassins.

Amid the battle, Mu-Gun detected dozens of energies approaching under his feet using the Earth Burrow Movement Art, a movement art of the highest caliber. It was also known as a signature skill of the Earth Killer Sect, one of the Three Greatest Assassin Organizations. However, despite how stealthy they were, they could not deceive Mu-Guns qi senses.

Mu-Gun immediately stabbed his sword into the ground and discharged a wave of Thunder God qi through it, destroying the ground and sending chunks of it flying all over the place. The assassins who were using the Earth Burrow Movement Art urgently activated their defenses against the golden lightning burrowing through the ground. However, along with a thunderous roar, the assassins were forced out of the ground and blasted away.

Meanwhile, another group of assassins closed in on Mu-Gun, who suddenly felt the space around him distorting and the size of the objects nearby uncontrollably changing. Through sorcery arts, his perception of the assassins number and location was altered.

This time its the Phantom Death Sect, huh?

Mu-Gun easily identified the assassins who performed the sorcery arts. The Phantom Death Sect was also one of the Three Greatest Assassin Organizations, and they used extremely deadly sorcery arts. However, it did not work on Mu-Gun.

Mu-Gun used the Thunder God's Heavenly Eyes to see through the assassins sorcery arts, then threw the Flying Golden Shield in an arc toward the assassins.

The assassins hurriedly activated barrier techniques to defend against the incoming shield, but their defenses proved insufficient. In the end, they all fell to the ground with their heads and chests crushed.

Another group of assassins approached Mu-Gun as he fought the Phantom Death Sect assassins. Their movements assimilated with the shadow cast on the valley, making it difficult to discern their movements with the naked eye. They were hard to notice until they already closed in on their target because they moved stealthily and covered their traces. However, even without using the Thunder Gods Heavenly Eyes, Mu-Gun immediately noticed them because he was quite familiar with the stealth art they usedthe Dark Specter Stealth Art. It was the greatest stealth art to ever exist. Using it allowed one to hide themselves even with just the tiniest bit of darkness in the area. Mu-Gun learned that stealth art in his third reincarnation.

The clan that used the Dark Specter Stealth Art was known as the Specter Sect, one of the Three Greatest Assassin Organizations. Mu-Gun smiled bitterly when the Specter Sect appeared, having crossed paths with them before. Nevertheless, he did not hesitate to kill the Specter Sect assassins. Mu-Gun and the Specter Sect had an ill-fated relationship anyway.

Mu-Gun swung his sword and sent forth a wave of golden moonlight qi at the assassins approaching under the cover of the shadows. Flustered, the Specter Sects assassins hurriedly defended themselves, but in doing so, they were forced to stop using the Dark Specter Stealth Art and reveal themselves. Unfortunately, despite their struggle, they were still far too weak to block Mu-Guns attack.

The golden moonlight qi that Mu-Gun unleashed penetrated the assassins defenses and pierced through their chest and necks. With blood gushing out, the assassins fell to the ground still gripping their neck and chest.
