Thunder God's Reincarnation

Chapter 193

Baek Mu-Gun smiled bitterly upon seeing Peng Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong still alive, albeit not in good condition.

It seems I arrived a little late.

No. Thank you for coming.

Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong knew that they would have died if not for Mu-Gun. It would have been great if Mu-Gun had come a little faster, but they could not really blame him for it. After making sure that the two Saints survived, Mu-Gun turned to Gu Pae-Cheon and Hyeok Ryeon-Pae.

I did not expect another Divine Demon to be here.

The energy of the two demonic practitioners was all Mu-Gun needed to know that they were both Divine Demons.

You should not have come here, bastard, Pae-Cheon said.

It seems like you thought that it would be possible to take me down with one more Divine Demon joining the fight, Mu-Gun said indifferently.

Well, we may fail to defeat you if the Thunder God manifests within you, but that will also put your life at risk. You would likely have trouble blocking even just a third-rate martial artists attacks once the Thunder Gods Descent is over.

Who knows? I probably wont even need it to kill you, Mu-Gun provoked.

You better hold on to your words until the end, Pae-Cheon smiled, then looked at Ryeon-Pae.

Meeting his gaze, Ryeon-Pae nodded and took the initiative. He charged toward Mu-Gun as he used the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star. Dark red flames enveloped him and formed huge horns on his temples, making him look like a demon from hell. Borrowing the authority of the Demon God, he had covered himself with an impenetrable protective vajra qi that not even the Thunder Gods martial arts could break.

Having unleashed the strongest technique in his arsenal, Ryeon-Pae rushed toward Mu-Gun without fear.

Having no intention of just standing around and watching, Pae-Cheon prepared to use the Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon, his strongest technique. It borrowed the authority of the Demon God to summon a black demonic dragon that had black lightning essence, granting it enough power to destroy anything. As Ryeon-Pae blocked Mu-Guns attacks with the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star, Pae-Cheon would attack and defeat him with his ultimate technique. Their plan was beyond simple, but it was the most perfect for their transcendental demonic arts.

Fortunately, Mu-Gun knew the martial arts that the Nine Celestial Demons Sects Nine Great Demon Kings possessed. Otherwise, their plan could have worked on him.

Mu-Gun no longer bothered clashing with Ryeon-Pae, who charged at him first, since he wouldnt be able to break through his defenses anyway. Instead, he executed the Thunder God's Aerial Steps and soared into the air.

Ryeon-Pae fired inferno flames at Mu-Gun. In response, Mu-Gun spread waves of golden lightning and skipped around in mid-air, leaving Ryeon-Paes attacks in the dust. With his movements turning him into a difficult target, Pae-Cheon was forced to wait for an opportunity as well.

While dodging, Mu-Gun executed the Infinite Thunder Sword. A cluster of golden light emanated and stretched from his sword, forming a huge sword spanning hundreds of feet. Mu-Gun swung it down at Pae-Cheon as soon as it was complete, splitting the space in half as it crashed down on him at lightning speed.

Pae-Cheon was stunned. Fortunately, Ryeon-Pae stood in front of him. Ill block it, so just focus on unleashing your attack!

Still enveloped by the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star, Ryeon-Pae raised his hands and grabbed the golden sword. A thunderous roar erupted as it pushed him down. Unable to withstand the weight, the floor underneath him cracked and shattered, burying him waist-deep into the ground. Nevertheless, he never let go of the sword. It was almost as if he was lifting it up.

Meanwhile, Pae-Cheon jumped into the air and threw his spear at Mu-Gun. The black lightning enveloping it took the form of a black demonic dragon, making it look as if lightning was about to strike Mu-Gun.

Mu-Gun immediately split the Infinite Thunder Sword into ten thousand strands of Thunderbolt Swords and directed them all to the incoming spear. They stabbed the black demonic dragon at random, causing an ear-splitting blast.

Unable to withstand the ten thousand Thunderbolt Swords onslaught, the black demonic dragon was torn apart and exploded along with them. The waves of golden lightning and black lightning tangling up with each other before dispersing created quite a spectacular sight that was ill-fitted for the pressing situation.

Ryeon-Pae climbed out from the ground and rushed toward Mu-Gun again. When he unleashed dozens of Hellfire Vajra Qi, Mu-Gun equipped the Flying Golden Shield and put it in front of him, creating nine layers of golden lightning shields. The volley of Hellfire Vajra Qi destroyed seven of the Golden Nine-Layered Thunder Walls layers before being deflected away.

Right after, Pae-Cheon rushed in and created another black lightning dragon. In response, Mu-Gun immediately executed the Hundred Golden Lightning Wheel Wave, surrounding himself with a huge golden wheel made of a hundred golden Thunderbolt Swords. After deflecting the attack, the swords forming the golden wheel split up and flew toward Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae.

The two Divine Demons immediately mustered their vajra qi and blocked the swords, resulting in a thunderous boom.

The swords that survived the clash penetrated through the exploding vajra qi and pierced Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae, the explosion that followed shoving the two away. Their protective vajra qi deflected the swords, making them look unscathed, but the impact proved strong enough to hurt them. It did not manage to internally injure them, but it sent a concussion to their insides. If Mu-Gun attacked them at that moment, he could have defeated the two of them.

However, he was in no state to continue his attack, having just realized that his internal energy had hit rock bottom. He took out and consumed four Power Restoration Pills, which the Medicine King Family gave him. His body instantly absorbed them, filling his dantian up with a hundred and twenty years' worth of internal energy.

Mu-Gun checked his surroundings and analyzed the situation. Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae had almost fully recovered from the shock they recently suffered, and the demonic monarchs had already pulled themselves together and started showing their willingness to join the battle. On the other hand, Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong, who suffered quite serious internal injuries, were still in unstable conditions.

Moreover, Mu-Gun only recovered enough internal energy for one or two attacks. He could not even use the Thunder Gods Descent now, considering its time limit was determined by how much internal energy he had at the time of its activation. With Mu-Guns internal energy reserves, just maintaining it for forty-five seconds would already be difficult.

Within that time period, Mu-Gun could kill Pae-Cheon, Ryeon-Pae, and all the demonic monarchs. However, once the Thunder Gods Descent ended, he would fall into a vulnerable state in the middle of the enemy camp. All he would be waiting for was death at that point.

In this situation, continuing the fight posed too high of a risk.

For now, he had to prioritize his survival. Determined to escape, Mu-Gun flew toward Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong. He thought of leaving them here to die but decided against it, wanting to kill them with his own hands. Moreover, he wanted them to confess their sins first.

Grab my hand. Mu-Gun reached out to Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong.

The two quickly did as instructed. A golden wave of lightning swirled around Mu-Gun. Realizing that Mu-Gun was trying to run away, Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae immediately rushed at them. Understanding the situation a little late, the demonic monarchs also followed suit.

Mu-Gun soared into the air and headed east of the campsite with Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong. At the same time, the golden lightning wave around him gushed into the air. He was certainly slower since the two Saints were dangling off him, but he was still fast.

Mu-Gun and the two Saints quickly widened the distance when Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae narrowly missed them, leaving behind a trail of golden lightning.

Despite feeling discouraged and disappointed that their efforts ended up in failure, all the Divine Demons could do was watch Mu-Gun and the two Saints flee into the distance at a speed too fast for them to give chase.

Mu-Gun couldnt maintain that pace for long. Hence, even if the two Divine Demons could not immediately catch up to him, they would still have a chance to reach him for as long as they kept chasing after him. Nevertheless, they chose not to since they had also exhausted most of their internal energy during their battle with him. The demonic monarchs also suffered considerable damage due to Mu-Guns Heavenly Thunder Storm Burst, preventing them from hunting him down.

* * *

Mu-Gun descended after thirty minutes of flight. However, it was not because they were already safe. Rather, he had simply depleted his internal energy already. Fortunately, the Nine Celestial Demons Sect and the Sun God Palace didnt seem to be chasing after them.

Thank you. We couldnt have survived without you, Mu-Hwe told Mu-Gun.

Its fine. Please consume this for now.

Mu-Gun gave each of them a Medicine King Pill.

What is this? Huangfu Chong asked.

It is the most effective medicine I know for internal injuries. It should help you swiftly recover, Mu-Gun explained.

I dont know if I can accept something so precious.

Dont you two need to heal your internal injuries to defeat the enemies?

Are you planning to attack them again? Huangfu Chong seemed surprised.

We were at a disadvantage earlier simply because we split up. Now that were together, we will have the upper hand if we attack them again.

Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong nodded in agreement, then took the Medicine King Pills from Mu-Gun and immediately consumed it. They then sat down somewhere flat and began circulating their qi. After watching them for a while, Mu-Gun also sat in a lotus position on one side and did the same.

Circulating their qi without any guards watching over them was dangerous. If the Nine Celestial Demons Sect and Sun God Palace sent a pursuit team, they could find themselves in a predicament they could not do anything about.

However, that only applied to ordinary martial arts masters. Supreme-Realm masters like Mu-Gun could closely monitor their surroundings while circulating their qi. They could also stop at any time. Hence, they could not ask for a more reliable guard than him right now.

The three circulated their qi in the dark for an hour, allowing Mu-Gun to recover all the internal energy he had exhausted. Shortly after he stood up, the two Saints also finished using the Qi Healing Technique. The excellent medicinal properties of the Medicine King Pills had completely healed their critical internal injuries, but their Qi Healing Technique naturally also played a part, given that they were Supreme-Realm masters.

The medicine you gave us is really amazing, Mu-Hwe said in astonishment.

You not only saved us but even gave us medicines. We owe you quite the debt, Huangfu Chong said, gratitude in his voice.

Mu-Gun shook his head. Instead of repaying me, just do your best to stop the Nine Celestial Demons Sects rampage.

That is a matter of course.

What do you plan to do now?

Wouldnt it be better to reengage them now? Mu-Gun said.

Already?

They would not expect us to attack again so soon. The two Divine Demons aside, the demonic monarchs should be having trouble recovering from the injuries they sustained during the last battle. The sooner we attack, the higher our chances of winning, Mu-Gun explained.

You have a point. Let us make haste, then.

With Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong agreeing with Mu-Gun, the three immediately headed back to the Sun God Palaces campsite.
