The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 344

"This giant is the owner of the Abyss?"

Sung JiHan's eyes widened as he read the message.

Despite the Abyss owner's refusal, the owner of the Arena had offered to release Nuna.

Even though the owner of the Arena, who belonged to the strongest faction even in the Void, had killed countless times, he continued to revive and remained stubborn.

When Sung JiHan saw the true identity of the person who was holding Nuna Sung JiAh captive, he thought it was better this way.

"Before challenging him, it would be good to test his power in the game."

If he gathered as much data as possible about the Abyss owner here, he could analyze him while loading it in the Void Training Ground.

Sung JiHan made up his mind to fight him and carefully observed his opponent.

"The red eyes embedded in the giant's body... I feel like I've seen that somewhere."

The giant's massive eyeball wriggled.

Sung JiHan watched it closely and soon thought that the eye resembled that of the "Red Tribe."

Although it seemed less lively compared to the red eyes possessed by the Red Tribe, the shape itself was similar.

"Why does the Red Tribe's eyes exist in the Void?"

The identity of the Abyss owner is truly unknown.

"For now."

Hunwon Divine Art

Samje Mugeuk

Taesan Apjeong

Sung JiHan made a light first move.

As the Void's energy split, his sword strike split the world in half.

But before it could reach the Abyss owner, it disappeared.

"He's definitely not an easy existence."

He's stronger than expected to challenge right after becoming a Grandmaster.

While Sung JiHan was thinking that,

[.......]

The Abyss owner stood with his hands on the ground without even looking at Sung JiHan.

Shuuuu...

The Void's energy grew denser as time passed.

If he left it alone, it seemed like the Void would spread widely across the world.

"But the destruction that occurred 24 hours later was not caused by the Void..."

The phenomenon where the world distorted was clearly different from the Void's erosion.

Since it was said that the hint of the destruction started here, it seemed that the Abyss owner was the key to this destruction.

However, his actions didn't seem to be directly related to the destruction Sung JiHan experienced.

"I don't have enough information right now. Let's attack with full power for now."

After a brief consideration, Sung JiHan opened his inventory.

What he took out was the Bonghwanggi and Bangamyeon.

[The Seat of the Holy Level will decrease to 768.]

With the Holy Seat activated and the Bangamyeon used to amplify the Void,

He gathered power in the Bonghwanggi.

Hunwon Divine Art

Cheonroeyongyeom

Cheonryongnaehwa

The Bonghwanggi flashed white.

Inside it, a tremendous firepower was condensed.

Although it was usually used as the flames of the sky, Cheonryongnaehwa, now...

Just like when facing the Seat of the Holy Longinus, he concentrated his power in one place.

Before throwing it, the Bonghwanggi emitted intense white flames.

"...This is still not enough."

As Sung JiHan looked at the Cheonryongnaehwa that had even troubled the Seat of the Holy, he instinctively felt it.

The opponent was an even stronger enemy than the Longinus.

This power alone was not enough.

Hmm...

Sung JiHan took out another weapon from his inventory.

"A stick?"

"Sung JiHan had a weapon like that?"

"It doesn't seem useful against that giant with the weird eyes..."

It was the Bloodline Spear, inherited from Longinus.

Sung JiHan's ultimate attack, the "Annihilation Code."

The Bloodline Spear allowed him to strike his opponent through the spear without having to get close to activate the Annihilation Code.

For 10 seconds, the Annihilation Code would release waves of annihilation energy, eliminating the target upon contact.

However, the owner of Abyss had a defensive measure that could nullify the Annihilation Code, so using it alone might be blocked.

"So, I'll distract him with the Phoenix Wing and then activate the Annihilation Code."

Whoosh!

The Phoenix Wing flew first, spewing white flames and burning away the Void Manipulation blocking their path.

But as the Phoenix Wing got closer to the owner of Abyss, its firepower weakened rapidly.

And then...

Hmm...

A few red eyes that were looking down at the ground weakened the firepower of the spear.

By the time the Phoenix Wing reached the owner of Abyss, most of the white flames emitted from the spear had disappeared.

Thud!

In the end, the Phoenix Wing bounced off weakly after barely grazing the red eyes.

"The power contained in that weapon was beyond imagination, but it got blocked..."

"If Abyss had only that kind of creature, our planet would have already been destroyed."

"Such a monster exists in the lowest-ranked race's star?"

Abyss had appeared on several alien planets.

Among the owners of Abyss, there was no presence as powerful as this one.

As the alien viewers felt puzzled about the opponent, they predicted that Sung JiHan would lose the battle.

Thud!

The Bloodline Spear, which was closely following the Phoenix Wing, pierced the owner of Abyss's right arm.

And then, in an instant, the arm of the giant turned to gold.

Boom! Boom!

The eyeballs on the arm wriggled and exploded simultaneously, spewing blood.

"Uh..."

"What's that? Why did it take damage?"

"The real weapon was behind it..."

"Sung JiHan... What kind of player is he?"

The powerful owner of Abyss allowed the attack, leaving the viewers bewildered.

But Sung JiHan's expression remained unchanged.

"The arm disappeared. Only a part of it, though."

Upon contact, the Annihilation Code completely annihilates the target.

Even though it was a power that even the Seat of Longinus couldn't overcome, only a part of the Abyss owner's flesh was annihilated.

Still, if he continued to attack like this, he might eventually disappear.

Flash!

A white light emerged from the disappeared spot, and from there, red pupils popped out.

And then, the red eyeballs regenerated the vanished flesh.

The purple giant was returning to its original form.

Sung JiHan watched the process closely and thought to himself.

"When the pupils come out of the light, it seems like it's not in a solid state."

At first, the red eyeballs emerged from the light in a translucent state.

They transformed from the disappeared flesh and gradually gained solidity.

Are they in an ethereal state when they come out of the light?

If that's the case...

"I should try using the Mandate of the Divine Beast."

Ugh.

Sung JiHan raised his sword in the air, igniting the eclipse.

Hunwon Shingong.

Myeolsin Gyeol.

Mangwi Bongsin.

Then, a pattern of Mangwi Bongsin emerged in the air.

Perhaps due to the amplified power, the pattern rapidly expanded.

And.

Shooo...!

A translucent enemy emerged from the light.

Instead of forming the flesh of a giant, it was sucked into the Mangwi Bongsin.

Then, the owner of the Abyss, whose regeneration stopped.

Sung JiHan nodded as he watched.

"That was really a spiritual body."

If he were to face the owner of the Abyss, he could use the destruction code to eliminate it and block its regeneration with the Mangwi Bongsin.

When he thought of the basic strategy like that.

[Gugung Palgwae-do....]

From the opponent who had shown little reaction even when a part of their body disappeared, a voice flowed.

At the same time.

Flash!

The enemy, who had been looking at the ground, suddenly turned around and looked at the pattern of Mangwi Bongsin.

And then.

Spin. Spin.

The red eyeball that had been observing Sung JiHan began to rotate clockwise.

At first, the eye that had been moving slowly gained speed in an instant.

"This time, for sure...!"

The surrounding world crumpled all at once.

A phenomenon similar to the destruction 24 hours later.

The world was sucked into the rotating eye.

"Was that the fundamental cause of the destruction...?"

Even the world that had swallowed Sung JiHan was distorted.

However, unlike the first game.

He was able to withstand it more easily.

The pattern of Mangwi Bongsin that appeared in front of Sung JiHan was blocking it.

"I didn't know the Mangwi Bongsin had this effect...!"

Using it as a shield, he could fight against the enemy.

When Sung JiHan thought that way and raised the spear of his bloodline.

"You're not Dongbangsak, are you... Disappear."

The owner of the Abyss said disappointedly.

Ziiing...

Then, the color of the rotating eye changed and it drew a single pattern.

It was a pattern that anyone in the East Asian cultural sphere would recognize.

- What is that?

- Is it the Taegeuk pattern?

- Why are you here?

It was the Taegeuk.

Hundreds, thousands of Taegeuk were created in the vicinity.

As the Mangwi Bongsin shattered, Sung JiHan's body was sucked in.

"Humanity has perished."

"Would you like to retry the mission?"

"You have one chance left."

The owner of Abyss revealed in the second game.

The viewers who witnessed his power were astonished, regardless of whether they were aliens or humans.

- With this level of power, he's almost on the same level as the Grand Seat... It's amazing that such a monster exists in Abyss.

- With that kind of power, he doesn't seem like someone who would be dispatched to Abyss. What is he doing there?

- The enemy is too strong compared to humanity's level.

- If there's something like that, destruction is inevitable.

- Sung JiHan... We should scout him to our planet.

- But what did the owner of Abyss say earlier? The translation was completely off.

The aliens were talking about how they saw the owner of Abyss and were making it a fact that it would lead to the destruction of humanity.

- What is Taegeuk? That was what was going to destroy humanity?

- The red eyes are creepy...

- Ah, this enemy is too strong...

- But I feel like I've seen that Taegeuk in the Taiwan War.

- Ah, was it Heo WooTak? He came as the Grand Seat.

- Yeah, that's right. The monster that destroyed the map.

Some of the human viewers were reminded of the Taiwan War when they saw Taegeuk.

Although the destruction of one map and the destruction of humanity are on a completely different scale.

The distortion of the world and the way everything is sucked in were similar to Heo WooTak's Taegeuk and appearance.

And Sung JiHan, who had experienced it firsthand, thought of Dongbangsak while looking at the final Taegeuk.

'I even mistook it for the Mandala Palace and was disappointed that it wasn't Dongbangsak... The owner of Abyss. It's definitely related to Dongbangsak.'

Even if they escape demotion, humanity will be destroyed by the owner of Abyss.

And the owner of Abyss possesses the power of the highest-ranking Grand Seat and uses the Taegeuk of the Taegeuk Sword.

The red eyes seem to be related to the enemy tribe and are weak against the Mandala Palace.

When they see the Mandala Palace, someone who didn't even pay attention to them before tries to kill them with all their might...

Is this the income they gained from the second challenge?

'...This guy is really not someone I can beat.'

Sung JiHan thought this while turning off the characteristics of the Grand Seat.

Compared to Longinus, he was an exceptional beginner.

No matter how much he amplifies his power, it seems impossible to win at his current level.

This mission won't be easy, it seems.

When Sung JiHan was thinking that he should gather information about the owner of Abyss rather than breaking the mission.

[Would you like to receive a mission hint?]

[It requires 200,000,000 GP.]

Sung JiHan received another message asking if he wants to receive a hint.

- They're really good at collecting money, lol.

- How much are they spending on this game, seriously...

- Even if they get a hint, it doesn't seem like they're going to face a deadly enemy...

- But still, I think Sung JiHan will lose, lol.

And as expected by the viewers.

"I'll take it."

Sung JiHan immediately paid the double hint cost.

Then.

[The weakness of the owner of Abyss '??' is the head.]

A one-line hint arrived.

- A 200 million GP hint, lol.

- The head is the weakness... That's too obvious, isn't it?

- No, you can't always know where the weakness of such a monster is. There's no rule that it has to be the head.

Although the viewers complained about the expensive price, saying what kind of hint is that, Sung JiHan laughed while looking at it.

"It's worth the money."

Until he makes the first move, the owner of Abyss doesn't pay attention to him.

If he attacks the revealed weakness, the result will be different from the second time.

"This is my last chance. I'll definitely target the head here."

Sung JiHan entered the final rematch with that determination.
