Thunder God's Reincarnation

Chapter 275



Chapter 275

The Demon God continued to absorb vengeful souls as he dealt with Mu-Gun and the Dragons. When the Dragons left their territories to face him, the demons from the Hellgates gained even more freedom. The elves, the Avalon Knights, and the Yupir Church paladins poured all their efforts into chasing them down and killing them, but many managed to elude them.

The demons relentlessly massacred the humans of Avalon and offered their vengeful souls to Baal, allowing him to recover even more of his strength. Now, he was more than powerful enough to not only hold off Mu-Gun and the Dragons but also threaten them.

However, he was still not strong enough to defeat Mu-Gun and the Dragons. He needed a little more power to regain his True Form.

His True Form would restore his prime physical abilities. Moreover, although it limited his use of demonic energy, which was more important than his physical abilities, it dramatically increased his regeneration speed and granted him strong defensive capabilities that most divinities could not penetrate.

Baals True Form would also enhance his speed and power beyond the level of Grand Masters, making him more than enough to easily tear apart Grand-Master Knights even without demonic energy. Considering the world of difference between his human physique and his True Form, unlocking the latter was extremely important for him.

Baal wanted to wait until he recovered enough power to transform back into his True Form. However, when his hideout was discovered, he was forced into the open before he even had the strength to defeat Mu-Gun and the Dragons. Nevertheless, he still found this situation quite favorable.

With the demons supplying him with vengeful souls, his power would keep growing over time. He just had to patiently hold on until he could revert to his True Form, then put an end to this battle.

Mu-Gun and the Dragons attacked the Demon God with all their might. However, they couldnt penetrate the waves of dark flames that served as an impregnable fortress. Knowing that their enemy was growing stronger as they fought, they couldnt help but feel anxious. They had to find a way to break the stalemate, but Mu-Gun couldnt come up with anything.

- Theres a way.

The Earth Spirit King Nordic spoke to him.

What is it? Mu-Gun asked, delight evident in his voice.

- Absorb us.

You want me to absorb the Spirit Kings?

-Yes. We, the four Spirit Kings, are born with Spirit God Vaharas divinity. Absorbing us would give you direct access to his divinity, eliminating the need to borrow it through us. That would give you enough power to eradicate the Demon God.

Wont you disappear from existence?

- On the contrary, we will simply become one with you. Regardless, our purpose has always been to eliminate him. We would gladly perish if thats what it would take to accomplish it.

Following Nordic, the other Spirit Kings expressed their willingness to sacrifice themselves as well.

- Nordic is right. We dont care even if we disappear from existence for as long as we can defeat the Demon God.

- For you, I would be willing to give my all.

- Im tired of this anyway. I have been a Spirit King for so long already.

Choked with emotions, Mu-Gun decided to respect their resolve. He wouldnt have done this if there was any other way. Unfortunately, using them to strengthen his divinity was the only way to take down their common enemy.

Even so, they could not proceed with their plan in the middle of this heated battle. The procedure would require a bit of time, and he couldnt just ask the Demon God to stop and wait for a bit. Even if he did ask, the Demon God definitely would not comply.

Mu-Gun returned his focus to the fight, putting aside unnecessary thoughts.

The battle went on for quite some time, their movements eventually becoming noticeably dull and their attacks weaker. Mu-Gun, the Dragons, and Baal had used up most of their power in their fierce exchanges of attacks.

Considering their condition, there would be no point in continuing their fight. It would be better to recover their power first. Hence, the Demon God proposed a ceasefire.

I see no reason to keep this stalemate going. Why dont we stop for a while?

Mu-Gun and the Dragons knew that the break would give the Demon God the time he needed to restore even more of his power. However, they had no choice but to accept the proposal.

We would accept under the condition that you do not wreak havoc in Avalon until weve settled our fight, Mu-Gun demanded.

Why should I do that?

Continuing our battle would put you at a disadvantage.

It would? the Demon God said, clearly baffled.

Youd eventually run out of demonic energy, forcing you into a physical fight. Can you defeat these powerful Dragons in your human form?

If you truly believe that, then lets continue this battle.

Fine, then. Lets see this through to the end.

Mu-Gun summoned a golden Thunderbolt Sword as if to say his words werent mere bluffs. The Dragons also returned to their positions and prepared to attack.

Fine! I accept your terms.

Pledge in the name of the Demon God.

I, the ruler of the Hell Realm, Baal, promise not to attack Avalon until a victor emerges from my battle against Sky God Yupirs representative.

Good. Let our ceasefire last only a day.

The Demon God nodded. I agree.

Mu-Gun and the Dragons soon left, the Demon God frowning as he watched them fly into the distance.

Something feels off.

From their perspective, this agreement would be no different from giving him a chance to win the fight. As Mu-Gun said, if Baal had relied on his physical abilities in his current form, he would have been the one in trouble. He could certainly recover enough of his power to revert to his True Form much earlier, but it wouldve been better for them to take that risk than call for a ceasefire.

This lull would give him ample time to regain his power, putting Mu-Gun and his allies at a disadvantage. There was no way they werent aware of that. Nevertheless, they still accepted his proposal.

Realizing that they still had a trump card that would give them a chance to win even if Baal were to regain his strength, Baal racked his brain trying to figure out what it could be. However, he couldnt come up with anything.

Whatever. Once I have recovered all my strength, they wont be able to do anything to stop me.

After agreeing to the ceasefire, Mu-Gun and the Dragons headed to the Centrion Mountain Range, the best place to avoid the Demon Gods prying eyes.

As soon as they arrived, he told the Dragons about his plan to absorb the Spirit Kings. The Spirit Kings noble hearts amazed them.

- I wonder if its even possible to absorb not just one but all four Spirit Kings.

Forcibly absorbing them would likely cause problems, but they have given me their consent for this.

- Thats a relief.

- You have to hurry. Its only a matter of time before the Demon God regains all his strength.

Baal would immediately look for Mu-Gun and the Dragons once he had recovered all his powers. Mu-Gun had to absorb all four Spirit Kings before then.

Ill begin now.

- Keep your focus on what you have to do. We will keep you safe throughout the entire process.

Thank you.

As the Dragons surrounded Mu-Gun, he assumed the lotus position and summoned the Spirit Kings.

Are you sure you will not regret this?

- If we would, we wouldnt have even brought it up in the first place.

- It is as Nordic says. All we ask in return is that you take down the Demon God.

The Spirit Kings remained steadfast.

On behalf of everyone in Avalon, I thank you for your noble sacrifices, o great Spirit Kings. I will stop at nothing to fulfill your purpose.

- That puts our minds at ease. Now, who would like to go first?

Nervatum turned to the other Spirit Kings.

- I will.

Nordic stepped forward. As the one who proposed the plan, he thought it would only be proper to be the first sacrifice.

- As you wish.

How do I absorb you, though?

- You simply have to consume the Spiritual Orb that contains our divinity and energy.

Spiritual Orb?

-Youll know when you see it.

Instead of giving a long explanation, Nordic, who was still in the form of a huge giant made of earth and rocks, clumped up into a ball. He then quickly compressed himself, eventually becoming small enough to be held with one hand.

Mu-Gun immediately realized that Nordic had turned into a Spiritual Orb that contained his essence. He grabbed the sphere floating in the air and, without hesitation, consumed it using the Heavenly Thunder Constellation Divine Art.

While Mu-Gun was absorbing Nordics Spiritual Orb, the Spirit Kings decided amongst themselves who would go second. Eventually, Ice Spirit King Eladium was chosen. Just like Nordic, Eladium created a Spiritual Orb by condensing her divinity and energy.

After absorbing Nordics Spiritual Orb, Mu-Gun immediately did the same to Eladiums Spiritual Orb. He then consumed Fire Spirit King Sarmans Spiritual Orb and, finally, Wind Spirit King Nervatums.

With the Spirit Kings divinities and energies blending, Mu-Guns Origin Spirit was thrown into a state of chaos. He had to merge their divinities and energies with his. Otherwise, he would be rendered helpless. Fortunately, although the process was not as simple as it sounded, Mu-Gun gained enlightenment when he harmonized the Dragons divinities earlier.

Using that enlightenment, he began to mix the four Spirit Kings divinities and energies with the Thunder God Qi. The five energiesThunder, Wind, Ice, Fire, and Earthgradually fused, creating a new one. Containing all the energy sources of the universe, the new energy transcended the Thunder God Qi.

Mu-Gun named it Infinite God Qi. Imbued with all the energy that the Spirit Kings had amassed over thousands of years, he gained an immeasurable amount of Infinite God Qi.

The power of his divinity amazed him.

Harmonizing the Spirit Kings divinities proved quite easy for him. After all, he had already broken the boundaries of his divinity and combined the different divinities in him once before. He also acquired divinity on his own instead of being granted one. To top it all off, he had already absorbed and integrated some of Spirit God Vaharas divinity into his own by signing a spiritual contract with the Spirit Kings.

Considering the Spirit Kings divinities came from Spirit God Vahara, this would technically be the second time hed be doing this procedure. Hence, he naturally found it easier to do now. Although he had absorbed far more divinity from the Spirit Kings this time, it didnt cause any issues since the divinities themselves proactively tried to unite.

After combining the Spirit Kings divinities, he harmonized them with his preexisting divinity. Considering their divinity was larger than his, it would have devoured his divinity if he had forcibly absorbed them.

With the Spirit Kings divinities conforming with and integrating themselves into Mu-Guns, Mu-Guns divinity grew nearly three times larger, bringing him a step closer to becoming a True God.

However, Mu-Gun couldnt really care less about it. All that mattered to him was the obliteration of the Demon God and getting to return to the Central Plains.
