Chapter 211

Great Huangfu Family Patriarch Huangfu Tian could not help but be surprised. It seems I was worried for no reason.

They probably believe they can win against us even if they do not resort to surprise attacks or ambushes, Patriarch Namgung Jo commented.

They are likely already aware that you are with us, Young Master Baek. Considering they are still behaving this way, does this not mean that they have found a way to defeat you? Patriarch Young Ho-Goon anxiously asked.

They are probably hoping to rely on their Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills, Baek Mu-Gun answered.

If so, then they would have to sacrifice their Absolute-Realm masters to even pose a threat to you. Are they really not above using their Demonic Monarchs?

The Nine Celestial Demons Sect is full of fanatics. They will not hesitate to sacrifice the Demonic Monarchs to achieve their goals, and the Demonic Monarchs are more than willing to lay down their lives for their cause as well.

Throughout his eight reincarnations, Mu-Gun had faced the Nine Celestial Demons Sect thrice. No one knew their demonic practitioners mentality and patterns better than he did.

If so, then the key factor here is the number of remaining Demonic Monarchs in the Nine Celestial Demons Sect, Zhuge Bo commented.

Although this has not been confirmed yet, they probably still have around thirty Demonic Monarchs and one hundred Higher Demons, Mu-Gun replied. Although he was just making a rough estimate, it likely was not far off.

The Higher Demons will also be a huge problem, then. Zhuge Bo frowned.

The Higher Demons were in the Upper Peak Realm. If they consumed Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills, the Nine Celestial Demons Sect would gain at least a hundred Absolute-Realm masters.

How about we just run away and wait until the effects of the Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills expire again? Namgung Jo suggested, recalling their battle against the Sky Beast Palace.

That will probably be hard to accomplish. Mu-Gun shook his head. Since they have already fallen for it once, they have definitely come up with a countermeasure for it. The Divine Demons will not just stand by and watch us run away either.

Why dont you try to lower their numbers through assassination like before, Young Master Baek? Following Namgung Jo, Ximen Zong expressed his opinion.

That will also likely be difficult. Since they have fallen for my assassinations a few times already, they are probably well prepared for it now. There is a good chance that I will fall for their trap.

Haih, how frustrating. Ximen Zong sighed.

If only the Seven Saints were still alive Patriarch Peng Mun-Cheol said, expressing his regrets.

If the Seven Saints were still alive and well, they would not have had to worry about this. However, they had already passed on, making their hope nothing but a pipe dream.

Do you have any good ideas, Patriarch Zhuge? Jin Do-Myeong asked Zhuge Bo.

Not yet, Zhuge Bo said with a bitter smile.

I doubt we will achieve any progress even if we continue this meeting. Lets adjourn for now and gather once we have racked our brains to come up with a plausible plan, Supreme Elder Hyun Cheon said.

The Central Plains Murim Alliances executives nodded and got up from their seats. After leaving the meeting, Mu-Gun returned to his tent and recalled the details they discussed. Considering the power the Twelve Beast Kings displayed when they drank Soul-Burning Invincibility Pills, he would likely have difficulties defeating all of the Nine Celestial Demons Sects Demonic Monarchs if they were under the pills effects.

He could certainly kill them all using the Thunder Gods Descent, but they were not his only enemies. After all, the Divine Demons were also around. Although he had more internal energy now, it still would not be easy to kill all the Demonic Monarchs and Divine Demons within the techniques duration. If he exhausted all his power before he could defeat them all, he would definitely be killed.

Should I take a gamble? Mu-Gun frowned as he thought about meeting the Thunder God. He would always feel as if he was becoming one with the deity whenever he unleashed it, but he had never attempted to communicate with themno, he could not afford to.

Mu-Gun thought he could find a solution to the insufficient duration of the Thunder Gods Descent if he could communicate with the Thunder God, but he never tried to since he had to pay with his soul to use it.

Mu-Gun had no idea what paying with his soul entailed, but it was at least clear that nothing good could come from frequently using the Thunder Gods Descent. He could not wager his soul for something he was not sure of.

However, since Mu-Gun still could not guarantee victory against their enemy, he thought he might as well try whatever he could. Steeling his resolve, he recited the incantation of the Thunder Gods Descent.

[O God of Thunder shining brightly in gold. Adhering to the ancient covenant, I long for your power. Manifest your existence and show your domineering power to these foolish ingrates!]

The air around Mu-Gun began to tremble wildly. His eyes were dyed radiant gold, and storm-like golden lightning swirled around him. He took a deep breath as he felt immense strength coursing through his body, then focused on his consciousness to call the Thunder God.

When the Thunder God ignored him, Mu-Gun persisted.

- What a strong will thou has to be able to speak to me.[1]

After some time, the Thunder God finally responded.

Are you the Thunder God?

- That is correct. Why hast thou called for me?

This may be impudent of me, but I would like to gain your true power.

- A mere human dare desire to gain the power of a god?

The Thunder God sounded baffled.

I want to protect the world.

- The power thou hast now is enough to protect the world.

I am pleading with you now because it is not.

- What shall thou offer in exchange for my true power?

O Thunder God, did you not hand down your martial arts and lend your power to a mere human for the sake of protecting the world?

- And if so?

Should you not be the one paying me? I am working hard on your behalf.

- In return for thy hard work, thou gained mine martial arts and borrowed mine strength.

That is not enough. I need your true power.

- Doth thou think thou can handle mine true strength with a humans trifling body? Just borrowing mine power for a mere instance would reduce thou to a vulnerable state.

Then why not make me capable of handling it?

- Human greed truly doeth know no bounds.

I am not saying this out of personal greed. I want to protect the world as your successor. You should be well aware of that. After all, you have been watching me all this time.

Mu-Gun gave it his all to save the world in every reincarnation. The Thunder God, who lent him power, should be well aware of his sacrifices and determination.

- I agnize that, but not just anyone can gain mine true power.

What do I have to do?

- Thou hast to become mine incarnation.

How?

- Inherit part of mine divinity.

If I do, will I have access to your true power?

- As thy world describes it, thou wilt reach the Mythic Realm, gain a nigh-infinite amount of Thunder God Qi, and free control over it.

Does becoming your incarnation come with any burden? Mu-Gun asked. Inheriting a part of a gods divinity would definitely come with a price.

- Many worlds exist in the universe that thou do not know of. As a god of the Heavenly Realm, I am in charge of protecting those worlds from the Demon Gods of the Hell Realm. However, I alone cannot protect them all. Hence, in exchange for mine power, thou shalt become mine incarnation, inheriting a part of mine divinity to protect the many worlds I am not able to.

What will happen to the original me if I become your incarnation?

- Nought wilt change. Thou wilt simply cross over to the other worlds when needed and stop the Demon Gods.

How do I do that?

- Thou wilt gain that knowledge along with mine divinity, which wilt make thou realize the providence of the universe.

Is the Nine Celestial Demons Sect also connected to the Demon Gods?

- Yea. However, they are in the same situation as thou. They were granted martial arts and a bawbling portion of authority by the Demon Gods, whose incarnations should be the one thou fear.

Can the Demon Gods incarnations threaten this world?

- Not only is it possible, but it hath already befell.

The Demon Gods incarnations have already threatened this world before? Mu-Gun asked in surprise.

- Yea. I and two other gods sent our incarnations to repel them.

Is the Three Greatest Mysterious Sects perhaps the incarnations you mentioned? Mu-Gun asked, the thought suddenly crossing his mind.

- That is correct.

Your incarnation must have been the one who taught the Heavenly Descent Thunder God Sects martial arts, then.

- Yea. The Fire and Light Gods incarnations, who were sent with mine incarnation, also left behind their martial arts. However, as the years passed, their legacy was lost.

The Thunder God kindly detailed the parts that Mu-Gun could be curious about.

What should I do to become your incarnation?

- Thou just hast to receive what I grant thou. If thy vessel is far too weak to contain it, thy soul wilt be shattered to pieces.

Having his soul shattered meant that he would forever cease to exist. Fear suddenly swept through Mu-Gun.

Do you think I am good enough?

- Thou had lived through eight reincarnations. Thy vessel hast to be bigger than other humans. However, none can guarantee thy success. Why? Are thou afraid that thou cant handle it?

To be honest, I am.

- Thou can still refuse. I do not hast any intent of having an unwilling person become mine incarnation.

If I refuse, wont my soul end up yours anyway?

- Yes. Once the effect of the Nine Lives Reincarnation Spell carved in thy soul ends, thy soul wilt be mine.

Then I dont actually have a choice. I will be yourI mean, please allow me to become your incarnation.

- I am going to ask thou one last time. Would thou not regret thy decision?

I will not.

- Good. Then, I shalt hast thou become mine incarnation.

Thank you. What should I do now?

- From this moment forward, I wilt convey mine divinity to thee. Allow me to say to thou once again, it is up to thou to make mine divinity thine. I wish thou success. Prepare thyself.

Mu-Gun took a deep breath and concentrated on his consciousness as best as he could.

I am ready.

- Let us begin.

Mu-Gun soon felt something huge enter his soul. After a moment, the enlightenments containing the providence of the universe began to flood into his consciousness like waves.

Unable to handle the vast and profound knowledge, Mu-Guns consciousness was overloaded, making it seem as if it would break at any moment.

If this goes on, my soul will shatter and I will cease to exist! I have to unlock my upper dantian!

Unlocking his upper dantian would make his consciousness limitless in size, which in turn would allow him to survive. Such a feat was normally impossible, but he could use the enormous presence surging into his soul to his advantage.

Mu-Gun soon realized that the enormous presence was the divinity that the Thunder God bestowed upon him. Needing to make it his own, he fortified his will and focused on his consciousness, which was still being flooded with enlightenment, to make the divinity his own.

Mu-Gun clenched his teeth. His consciousness seemed about to break.

Come to me! Be mine! Give in to me!\'

Did it hear Mu-Guns desperate cries? Seemingly following his will, the divinity that the Thunder God planted in his soul moved, beginning to acclimate to it.

Mu-Guns soul and consciousness rapidly expanded, unlocking his upper dantian.
