All Master Who Regressed to Bronze Episode 088
The unification of all energies.
A massive single energy created by gathering enormous energies into one.
At least 2,000.
In the case of mana, it exceeded 3,000.
As all of these merged into one, the size of Ilwon power approached nearly 10,000.
And Shin Hyeok converted that forged Ilwon power into spiritual power.
Kwagagagagagagaga!
‘…I’m going to die.’
Massive spiritual power flowing through his entire body like a raging torrent.
Despite his excellent control, a trickle of fresh blood flowed from Shin Hyeok’s lips as the spiritual power ran wild, completely disobedient.
But precisely because of that, Shin Hyeok smiled.
‘This is it. This was the power.’
What he lacked.
The final puzzle piece needed to prove his martial arts.
The moment it fit into place.
Puhwaaaaaaak!
Shin Hyeok released the massive spiritual power flowing through his body as it was.
Purple spiritual power burst from his entire body, dyeing Shin Hyeok’s surroundings purple.
Neither the holy sword nor the Arcane Spear could escape the purple light.
The holy sword that had been shining pure white with Sacred Power was dyed purple by the spiritual power, and the Arcane Spear that had been burning black with demonic energy was no different.
Both Sacred Power and demonic energy ultimately submitted under the spiritual power.
Seeing this, Shin Hyeok swung his sword and spear as they were.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
The spectacle created by the sword and spear flying through the air, striking the void.
Watching them smash and split the very space they crossed, Wushen smiled brightly for the first time.
In that bright smile he had never shown before, Shin Hyeok felt an ominous feeling and immediately stopped his attack heading toward Wushen, switching to a defensive stance.
An exchange of offense and defense accomplished in an instant.
Though his insides were thoroughly wrecked as the price, Shin Hyeok’s judgment was correct.
“Heaven-Shattering Annihilation Style.”
“…!”
Because Wushen, who had been wearing the brightest smile ever, drew out the Heaven-Shattering Annihilation Style for the first time.
As if showing that everything until now had been merely testing the waters, Wushen’s aura exploded, and Shin Hyeok restored all his already shattered defense systems once again, but—
“Heaven Annihilation Peng Bird Fist.”
“…Damn.”
Kwaaaaaaaaang!
Even that was insufficient to block a single Peng bird falling from the sky.
The turtle ship that had been half-destroyed was completely destroyed and reverse-summoned, and all of Shin Hyeok’s defense systems were shattered and scattered like powder.
Naturally, Shin Hyeok himself couldn’t remain unharmed either.
“Cough!”
He spat out a bowlful of blackened blood, and pieces of internal organs were mixed in that blood.
Since he was already suffering internal injuries in real-time due to his inability to properly control the unified spiritual power, the impact of the following attack was even greater.
After being hit by the Heaven Annihilation Peng Bird Fist and plummeting down below Heavenly Cliff.
If things continued like this, he would collide with the invisible ground and not even the shape of his body would be found.
But Shin Hyeok just laughed, even as he spat blood and faced the crisis of his body being torn to pieces.
“Heaven-Shattering Annihilation Style.”
“…Ho.”
He too followed Wushen’s development.
There was no reason he couldn’t handle Wushen’s martial arts that belonged to his own martial way.
Where Wushen’s lips curved upward.
Shin Hyeok roughly rotated his spiritual power and forged a purple Peng bird.
“Heaven Annihilation Peng Bird Fist— Spirit.”
“…Mm!”
Kwaaaaaaaaang!
A single Peng bird so powerful that even Wushen let out a short exclamation shot up from the ground and invaded the sky.
A sight contrasting with what Wushen had driven down from sky to ground.
But the momentum of the Peng bird soaring toward the sky was greater than Wushen’s if anything, certainly not inferior.
“Heaven Annihilation Lightning Blade.”
“Heaven Annihilation Lightning Blade.”
To block it, Wushen forged and shot out a blue formless blade, and Shin Hyeok, who had been preparing for just that, also forged a purple formless blade to counter it.
The formless blades that flew simultaneously without an inch of error collided in mid-air.
Jjeoooooooong!
The moment purple and blue light burst forth, roughly devouring and struggling against the surroundings.
—Kieeeeeeeee!
“Damn.”
Kwaaaaaaaaang!
The Peng bird that flew through those clouds struck Wushen precisely.
Wushen was shot backward like a cannonball by the Peng bird’s power.
But even in such circumstances, Wushen looked precisely only at Shin Hyeok.
He thought that if it were him, he would absolutely not miss this situation, and that thought was correct.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!!!
Creating translucent shields in mid-air and using them as footholds to kick off the void.
After kicking off a total of five shields and instantly crossing Heavenly Cliff, Wushen’s figure came into Shin Hyeok’s sight.
Wushen also took in the sight of such Shin Hyeok.
The paths they walked were different, the points they reached were different, and their thoughts about the martial arts they embraced were different.
But they were the same martial artists.
Wushen anticipated what Shin Hyeok would do, and Shin Hyeok also anticipated what Wushen would do.
“Behold. This is Chapter 1, Section 3 of the Heaven-Shattering Annihilation Style. The finale of Chapter 1.”
“…!”
Kugugugugugugugu!
The aura of Wushen floating in mid-air exploded and instantly disappeared.
No, it hadn’t disappeared.
It was just compressed to such an extreme degree that it felt like it had vanished.
Kiiiiiiing!
A sharp blade forged from Wushen’s compressed aura.
A killing intent that would cut through everything blocking its path could be felt from there.
Sword energy? Sword intent? Sword force?
Shin Hyeok instinctively felt the overwhelming killing intent that would make all of those seem trivial.
‘Whether it’s the Arcane Spear or holy sword, it’ll cut them like chopsticks.’
The fact that even legendary+ grade equipment would be no better than chopsticks before that killing intent.
Therefore, Shin Hyeok poured all his spiritual power into the Arcane Spear and holy sword to strengthen the two weapons.
“Transcendence— Comprehensive Weapon Arts [A].”
Next, using the Plus Ultra Ring’s effect to enhance Comprehensive Weapon Arts by one level, temporarily transcending it to S-rank.
Kiiiiiiing!
He raised weapon force above the holy sword and Arcane Spear.
Sword force and spear force.
The moment the two weapon forces burned purple.
“Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash.”
“Island Wind Extreme Demon, Heaven Annihilation Lightning Blade— Spirit.”
Kwaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Wushen and Shin Hyeok clashed.
Wushen used the 1st Chapter, 3rd Section of Pacheonmyeolswae Style, while Shin Hyeok countered with his own interpretation of Cheonma Seonggong Chapter 1 – Choi Shin-hyeok Style Cheonma Seonggong and Choi Shin-hyeok Style Pacheonmyeolswae Style.
The result was-
Crash!
“Not bad.”
“…I’m on the verge of death though.”
It was Shin Hyeok’s defeat.
Just like with Cheonma, the current Shin Hyeok couldn’t defeat a Constellation no matter how much they lowered their level and restricted their physical abilities.
In reality, Shin Hyeok’s current condition couldn’t be called good even as empty words.
The Absorption Armor was half-destroyed, revealing Shin Hyeok’s body completely.
Even that exposed body wasn’t in good shape.
Blood was streaming down, and his entire body was covered in bruises.
The Arcane Spear’s shaft had cracked again after being recently repaired, and the Holy Sword’s blade was similarly cracked.
His equipment was broken, his body was broken, and his insides were broken.
Everything was a mess.
“Your martial arts were excellent.”
“Is, that so.”
Even speaking was difficult, causing his words to break off, but Wushen didn’t care about that fact in the slightest.
They had returned to the peak of the Rugged Mountain at some point.
There, Wushen remained unchanged by even a speck of dust, just like when they first met.
No-
“My clothes are cut and pierced. Haha! Interesting. Truly interesting. I think I understand why that Cheonma fellow acknowledged you. Yes, seeing something like this, one would naturally have to acknowledge it. How else could one call themselves a martial artist?”
There were tattered hem of his clothes.
Apart from his pristine body, parts of the immortal-like robes he wore had been cut and pierced, turning into rags.
Wushen, who had been laughing pleasantly at this fact, extended his hand to Shin Hyeok.
“You have proven your martial arts. Both awakening and using spiritual power. And immediately applying it to forge your own martial arts. I have no choice but to acknowledge it. My martial arts are just one slightly special method among many for you.”
“I see.”
“…Hmm?”
However, Shin Hyeok didn’t take Wushen’s extended hand.
When Wushen raised his eyebrows in puzzlement at this fact.
Gulp!
Shin Hyeok opened his inventory and began drinking Hyo-rin’s special potions.
That wasn’t the end of it.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
He poured rare and unique-grade materials that had been sleeping in his inventory into the Absorption Armor.
While these materials could no longer make the Absorption Armor grow, they were sufficient for recovery.
The Absorption Armor and his body instantly regained their original form.
Of course, it was only a temporary measure.
The potions barely managed to restore his body, but that was all.
He couldn’t completely recover everything that filled his insides.
But that was enough.
Shin Hyeok, having regained some strength, staggered to his feet.
Without accepting Wushen’s help and relying solely on his own power, Shin Hyeok stood up and grasped the cracked Arcane Spear and Holy Sword once more.
Seeing this appearance that even conveyed resolute will, Wushen also withdrew his hand and looked at Shin Hyeok with an expressionless face.
“How arrogant. I have already acknowledged you, yet you’re not satisfied with that?”
“I said I would show you everything I have. I’m simply trying to keep that promise.”
“You’ve already shown everything. To say there’s more to show… I don’t think so. Trivial things like the Colosseum cannot manifest in my domain.”
The Colosseum.
Shin Hyeok’s personal battlefield that dragged opponents into the Colosseum to debuff them while giving Shin Hyeok buffs.
But that was merely a replica imitating a domain.
A card that couldn’t be played within Wushen’s transcendent domain.
“I never intended to summon it in the first place.”
“Then what exactly is your move? I’ve seen your bottom through this sparring match. I’ve seen your martial techniques, I’ve seen your summons, and I’ve seen the power your soul possesses. What can someone who has shown everything possibly show? If you can’t prove it and have simply risen again out of stubbornness from not accepting defeat… I’ll have no choice but to revise my evaluation of you.”
Wushen’s cold voice stabbed deeply into Shin Hyeok’s lungs.
To this threatening attitude of potentially reducing his score after already achieving 100%, Shin Hyeok’s answer was simple.
“What can exist purely within a domain is only another domain. Even if there are differences in level, that absolute principle never changes.”
“…?”
“Then wouldn’t it be fine if I also respond with a domain?”
“What nonsense. Domains are not yet permitted to you-“
“Simple Domain Deployment.”
“…!!!”
A battlefield that was inevitably advantageous to Wushen because it was within Wushen’s transcendent domain.
To twist this, he needed to create his own space within the domain.
And there was only one way to do that.
It was for Shin Hyeok to also respond with a domain.
A domain was originally about constructing a player’s mental image and manifesting it externally.
Therefore, domains were generally an ultimate technique that could only be grasped upon reaching Challenger Tier, and could only be used properly at the Integrated League Challenger Tier level.
Naturally, it was a technique far too advanced for Shin Hyeok, who hadn’t even reached Diamond, let alone Challenger Tier in his native dimension.
However, Shin Hyeok modified it into a ‘simple’ form and deployed it.
Domains were originally techniques downgraded from Constellations’ transcendent domains.
He downgraded it once more, modifying it so the current Shin Hyeok could deploy it.
Normally this would have been impossible, but now that he had grasped tremendous spiritual power through the trait: Ilwon’s Power.
Now that his soul’s level had temporarily surged, it was possible.
“Purple Spirit Single Moon .”
Kiiiiiiing!
A massive full moon gleaming with purple light rose above Shin Hyeok’s head.
