All Master Who Regressed to Bronze Episode 089

Domain.

After a single player completes their inner self.

They manifest it externally to transform the real world.

Manifesting a domain was so incredibly difficult that one had to reach at least Challenger Tier to barely attempt it.

However, Shin Hyeok succeeded in creating it with merely the body and abilities of a Platinum Player.

Even though he borrowed a simplified form and drastically reduced the domain’s scale and range, the success of this miracle was reason enough for praise in itself.

There were several reasons this was possible.

First, Shin Hyeok was not an ordinary player, and he was in a state enhanced to the extreme through all kinds of doping.

Somewhere between Diamond and Challenger level, perhaps.

That wasn’t the end of it.

Shin Hyeok hadn’t forgotten the sensation of the domain he had deployed countless times before his regression.

This was seamlessly incorporated into implementing the simplified domain, and this was the result.

Kiiiiiiing!

A purple full moon that rose behind Shin Hyeok’s head.

The full moon naturally scattered massive spiritual power gently around and dominated the surroundings, which was slightly different from Shin Hyeok’s memories.

‘Before regression, I deployed it based on mana. Since my mana’s color was deep blue, it was the Blue Moon Battlefield, but now it’s Purple Moon?’

The domain Shin Hyeok used to deploy in the past was the manifestation of a vast battlefield illuminated by a blue moon.

But now it was a purple moon instead of a blue one.

This happened because the main energy he used had completely changed.

Of course, the color of the moon wasn’t particularly important to Shin Hyeok.

‘It’s much better than before regression. As expected, I need to use good energy.’

Because when comparing output and scale.

The current domain was much better than the domain from before regression.

Well, due to the difference in scale between then and now, the actual abilities couldn’t even be compared, but the specs themselves were good enough.

Now the only important thing was for Shin Hyeok to grow.

Having borrowed the power of the simplified domain to occupy part of Wushen’s transcendent domain, Shin Hyeok looked at Wushen.

“Now it should be somewhat manageable, shouldn’t it?”

“Using a domain to clash with an opponent’s domain and create gaps, then occupying that space—a typical domain combat method. How on earth do you know this? Your dimension shouldn’t be a place where such high-level combat can occur yet, should it?”

“It’s all because I’m outstanding.”

“…Good. Now that I’ve confirmed your choice wasn’t arrogance, I should bring this to an end.”

“Fine by me. I wasn’t planning to maintain this for long anyway.”

Ilwon—though he gained massive spiritual power through spiritual energy, even that massive spiritual power was sucked in like a bottomless pit to maintain the domain.

In the end, it was a method that couldn’t be maintained for long.

Therefore, what Shin Hyeok chose was a quick decisive battle.

To quickly show what needed to be shown and withdraw.

Wushen also didn’t particularly criticize this.

He gave significant bonus points to the fact that Shin Hyeok had implemented a domain, even if simplified.

All preparations were complete, and the two warriors charged toward each other once more.

* * *

Domain.

This ability where players complete their inner world and implement it in reality contains various abilities, but can roughly be divided into two categories.

One is support, the other is enhancement.

There are also cases where special abilities unique to the domain itself are added, called “Special,” but this can only be implemented at the transcendent domain level, and even transcendent domains sometimes lack it, so it wasn’t very important.

Anyway, Shin Hyeok’s domain was both rather than either one.

Support and enhancement.

Shin Hyeok’s simplified domain, Jalyeongilwol, appropriately mixed these two.

Kiiiiiiing!

The moment the purple moon rotated fiercely and spewed out spiritual power.

Purple Moon began frantically using various skills.

Spirit arts, necromancy, magic, and so on.

This was Purple Moon’s support ability.

Automatic skill usage.

Originally, skills had to be directly used and deployed by the player, but while Purple Moon floated above his head, Shin Hyeok was freed from the constraint of having to use skills directly.

‘It’s regrettable. If it were a complete domain, it would have deployed weapon techniques too.’

If it had been a complete domain, not only these skills but also various weapons positioned on the battlefield would naturally move and face Wushen, but that was a distant story for now.

Therefore, Shin Hyeok cleanly abandoned his regrets and immediately moved.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

A festival of incomparably massive skills that Purple Moon continuously spewed out without rest.

Spirits were continuously summoned, undead were infinitely supplied, and magic ran wild.

Especially the wave assault unfolding now was definitely different from before.

‘Spiritual power. This is something else.’

It was the result of spiritual power layered on top of mana as a base.

Spiritual power was like the finest seasoning that raised the scale of all skills by one level.

Of course, the skills’ grades themselves hadn’t increased.

But since scale wasn’t something that could be calculated by grade, as could be seen from Pacheonmyeolswae Style or Cheonma Seonggong, Shin Hyeok didn’t mind.

Anyway, thanks to Purple Moon allowing him to invest his brain’s computational power entirely in combat, Shin Hyeok’s movements became even lighter.

That wasn’t the end.

Kiiiiiiing!

Purple Moon vibrated once more and burst with purple radiance.

Soon, as the purple radiance enveloped Shin Hyeok.

Kwadrrrk!

Shin Hyeok smiled at the tremendous strength pulsating throughout his body.

This was Purple Moon’s second ability, enhancement.

An ability that enhanced the player’s physical capabilities themselves.

Ordinary, but precisely because of that, powerful.

Shin Hyeok, having received the domain’s enhancement effect, charged at Wushen with an even lighter head and heavier body.

Jjeoooooong!

“…Hmm.”

For the first time, Wushen let out an exclamation close to a quiet groan.

Feeling that a strike that could be called supreme in ability, if not in full condition, had landed on Wushen, Shin Hyeok began to truly spread his wings.

“Seompoong Geukma – Spirit.”

Kwaaaaaaaaa!

As if he was finally getting the hang of it, Shin Hyeok’s wave assault, now uninhibited in imbuing techniques with spiritual power, began to push Wushen back helplessly.

With the addition of a quantity assault composed of spirits and undead, even Wushen reached a point where it was difficult to easily handle in a state full of constraints, no different from having his limbs tied.

Kuuuuuung!

“Interesting.”

Wushen lightly stomped the ground, shaking the surrounding earth while vibrating even the atmosphere, reverse-summoning all the approaching spirits and undead.

While pulling up the corners of his mouth in a bright smile as if pleased, Wushen lightly tapped the air.

Jjeoooooooong!

Space shattered, revealing a space that was difficult to describe as void, universe, or nirvana.

At the sight that naturally made one feel they could never return alive if sucked in, Shin Hyeok kicked off his position and threw his body backward.

“Where are you going? You should play with me more, shouldn’t you?”

“…!”

Thud!

But Wushen, as if he had no intention of letting Shin Hyeok go, took a step as if casually strolling and simultaneously reached right in front of Shin Hyeok.

Wushen’s smile at close range, with his face thrust forward, was more terrifying than any horror Shin Hyeok had ever seen, but Shin Hyeok gripped the handles of his holy sword and Arcane Spear and roughly swung them.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

Though not powerful enough to shatter space like Wushen, it was a sufficiently powerful strike from a human perspective, and Wushen didn’t remain still either, swinging his arm to quickly deflect them.

Though not powerful enough to shatter space like the Martial God, it was still a formidable strike by human standards, and the Martial God didn’t remain idle either, swinging his arms to quickly deflect them.

Bang! Kwaaang! Kwaaaang! Bang bang bang! Kwaaaaaaaaang!

A continuous exchange of attacks and defenses that couldn’t even be followed with the eyes.

In the midst of an incomparably fierce offensive where it was impossible to properly see who was attacking and who was defending, Wushen was the first to break the pattern.

Kwachaaaaaaang!

With a sharp sound like shattering glass, the spaces where Wushen’s fist had passed began to burst open and roughly suck Shin Hyeok in.

The suction force of the void’s subspace was more tremendous than imaginable, so Shin Hyeok could barely escape from there only after drawing upon his spiritual power following his mana.

“The scene is really brutal.”

“When you fight, something’s bound to break here and there, isn’t it?”

“Usually that applies to bodies or objects, but space breaking doesn’t fall under that category, does it?”

“Is that so? Everyone around me does this level of stuff as basic, so I’m not really sure.”

“…Aha.”

Looking at the sight of dozens of holes grotesquely scattered throughout Wushen’s transcendent domain like hideous scars, Shin Hyeok clicked his tongue lightly, then seeing Wushen tilt his head and ask back as if he truly didn’t know, he exclaimed and took his stance.

“I should finish this soon. It’s getting hard to hold on.”

“It was quite entertaining. But I don’t really understand why you bothered to deploy your domain, even in simplified form.”

“That’s… you’ll understand when you see it now.”

It was natural that Wushen didn’t know the reason for deploying the domain since it hadn’t been revealed yet.

Taking his stance like that, Shin Hyeok poured out everything he had.

“Comprehensive Weapon Arts.”

Kiiiiiiiiing!

With Comprehensive Weapon Arts upgraded to S-rank due to the transcendence effect, he bloomed a purple-blue sword aura on his holy sword.

And he drew Purple Moon’s support and enhancement effects to their limits, using them as foundation for the martial arts he was about to display.

“Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash. This is how you do it, right?”

“…!”

Heaven Shattering Annihilation Style.

The moment Wushen was shocked to see Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash, the 1st chapter 3rd section technique he had just demonstrated, unfold in Shin Hyeok’s hands.

[Skill: Heaven Shattering Annihilation Style [B] has grown to Heaven Shattering Annihilation Style [A].]

“Let me show you what surpassing your master tastes like.”

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

The perfectly executed surpassing technique unfolded from Shin Hyeok’s hands and charged relentlessly toward Wushen.

Compared to what Wushen had displayed, there were many disappointing and lacking aspects, but nevertheless, Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash was still Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash.

Feeling the sensation of a slash imbued with the energy to annihilate the heavens flying like lightning to cut him down, Wushen smiled leisurely.

“Pass. The slash landed evenly.”

“…Huuuuu.”

A long diagonal wound across his chest.

Surprisingly, droplets of blood were beading and flowing over that wound.

A shallow, shallow wound.

It was shallower than a paper cut on a finger, but having properly wounded Wushen’s body beyond his clothes, Shin Hyeok exhaled the breath he had been holding and collapsed right there.

Purple Moon had already lost all its power and been dispelled long ago when he launched Heaven Annihilation Flash Slash, and his body hung limply like a wrung-out rag with no strength left.

The spiritual power he had created by scraping together all his energy through Ilwon had also hit rock bottom, and since he had used up all the spiritual power combined from all energies, the other energies were equally depleted.

In his current state, he was in such a terrible condition that he would be helpless even if his younger brother Shin-woo thrust a frost blade at him for a throne usurpation.

But even so, a deep smile appeared on Shin Hyeok’s lips as he lay sprawled on the ground.

“What should I give you…”

Because the delightful time of reward settlement was waiting for Shin Hyeok.

Watching Wushen lost in thought while gently stroking his long white beard like an immortal, Shin Hyeok could smile even though he had no strength left in his entire body.
