Doctor’s Rebirth - Chapter 182

The moment twenty enemies came into view, Jin Cheonhee flicked a pebble up with his foot and struck it with the Ice Clarity Sword.

The single pebble split into two with one strike, imbued with the metal qi of the five elements, and flew off.

Tadadadang-!

Just two pebbles became bullets, ricocheting between the trees as they flew.

Thud.

As the two stones distracted the black-clad people’s attention, Jin Cheonhee’s figure appeared.

Swish-

“Enemy!”

This time, they seemed to have some intelligence, speaking like humans.

However, rendering that meaningless, the stone bullets lodged into a black-clad person’s eyes.

Simultaneously, Jin Cheonhee’s sword tore through a shoulder.

“Kill that bastard!”

The enemy shouted in a voice like a scream.

Hwanggu, highly excited by the blood, charged towards the enemy in sync with its master’s breathing.

Towards the countless flying hidden weapons, Hwanggu bristled its fur.

[Vajra Fur]

The extremely well-trained spiritual beast’s fur deflected the hidden weapons and then devoured the enemy’s leg.

Crunch-

The scene of blood spraying as they screamed was like a B-grade movie.

Jin Cheonhee swung his sword imbued with ice qi at the realm of Righteous Qi Ascends to Heaven, matching Hwanggu’s assistance.

Taiji Immortal-Destruction Sword.

Taiji Splitting Rays.

The sword strike, containing the essence of the Five Elements True Qi, Dual Mind-Intention Technique, Profound Origin Heaven and Earth Divine Technique, and Taiji Wisdom Sword, instantly split into four branches, butchering the enemy’s bodies one by one.

The black-clad people and Taoists shouted like madmen.

“Kill, kill, kill them!”

The jiangshi lying in coffins simultaneously rose and began moving towards the enemy.

The bell sound created by the Taoists began to ring as if it would burst eardrums.

It was an illusion technique. However, Jin Cheonhee drew the Black Pine Cloud Sword.

He vibrated the Ice Clarity Sword to its limit.

The moment its vibration frequency exceeded the human audible range, he struck the Ice Clarity Sword with the Black Pine Cloud Sword imbued with thunder qi.

Kang-

The sound attack, shot in a straight line following the principles of modern science, burst the Taoists’ eardrums and shook their cochleae.

In the gap created.

Blue lightning fell from the sky like divine punishment.

Kwarururung!

The lightning created by Heavenly Thunder Hawk instantly electrocuted two Taoists.

The remaining Taoists were momentarily stiff but quickly created a wall with jiangshi.

“Hold the position! Form the formation!”

As the white-robed Taoist ordered, the jiangshi began to form a formation in unison.

‘They’re fast.’

Jin Cheonhee wasn’t one to just watch as the living and dead gates were quickly completed.

He threw the Black Pine Cloud Sword in his hand, imbued with the mysteries of the Taiji Wisdom Sword and Minor Clarity Sword.

The target was the white-robed Taoist.

The white-robed Taoist, seeming to sense the killing intent, called jiangshi to block in front of him.

It was a short time, barely 0.2-0.3 seconds.

However, it was enough time to imbue the Black Pine Cloud Sword with Five Elements True Qi.

Jin Cheonhee used his bones as a bow and muscles as the string.

He charged and circulated internal energy in his arm until it felt like it would burst.

The reason his arm didn’t burst and could maintain this was thanks to his extremely trained external strength.

For a moment, his muscles swelled. Then he launched.

Kang!

The Black Pine Cloud Sword lodged into a jiangshi’s head. Though it didn’t completely penetrate the skull, the force made the jiangshi’s head jerk backward.

At that moment, Jin Cheonhee raised his index finger.

The white-robed Taoist looked up in surprise.

There, a blue-black hawk was gathering lightning.

The metal qi on the Black Pine Cloud Sword induced the electric current, focusing it in one place.

Kwarururung!

As the white-robed Taoist was instantly neutralized, the jiangshi lost their commander.

The Ice Clarity Sword seized and split that gap.

Neither the living gate nor the dead gate mattered.

The twenty enemies and over ten jiangshi were completely annihilated.

Though none were dead, if the Blood Immortal Sect were to lose, they would face torture worse than death.

Those with strength left in their jaws attempted suicide.

Jin Cheonhee coldly looked at such people once, then immediately strode to the core of the formation.

Woof. – No enemies around. Safe.

Hwanggu immediately detected the surrounding smells to protect its master.

Jin Cheonhee took out the feng shui compass and calculated what the original form of the formation used on Mount Wudang was.

He aligned the directions, observed the stars’ positions, and read between heaven and earth.

The Profound Origin Heaven and Earth Divine Technique moved, selecting and adding similar ones from over a thousand formations passed down in the Zhuge Clan.

In a corner of his mind, the PTSD from the war was still screaming, but he confirmed that his brain’s performance wasn’t affected.

In a way, it was similar to an emergency room on a holiday.

Whether the doctor breaks down or not, patients are continuously brought in.

If he broke down, he couldn’t save anyone, but if he endured, he could save at least one life.

In the face of others’ lives, his own emotions weren’t that important.

So Jin Cheonhee steeled his heart again.

It was something he often did on Earth too.

Finally, the Profound Origin Heaven and Earth Divine Technique restored the formation with a thousand pieces of knowledge and one inspiration.

Jin Cheonhee placed stones and looked for substitutes for cut trees to mark the directions.

And lastly, the water veins.

Looking at it, it seemed the water source that would become the vein had already been blocked.

He decided to apply Bloodborne Elder Eccentric’s knowledge for this.

Jin Cheonhee picked up a jiangshi and struck its solar plexus.

Crack-

As the jiangshi’s ribs broke, a stone was visible instead of a heart.

It was a blood water stone.

Blood water stones gather yin energy and convert it into life energy.

Jin Cheonhee, together with Hwanggu, tore open the chests of all jiangshi, extracted the blood water stones, and buried them where water veins were needed.

Even so, since it wasn’t a real water vein, it wouldn’t last long.

But that was fine. It just needed to hold until this incident was over.

Swish-

As the appropriate formation was completed in the right place, a thin mist began to spread across the entire Mount Wudang.

He placed his hand on the ground to read that the earth veins had started to flow.

“One more should do it.”

He searched for the broken place and made a repair plan.

Grr-

Hwanggu was even more excited after tasting blood. Looking up at the sky, Heavenly Thunder Hawk seemed to be the same.

War makes both humans and beasts blood-crazed.

Fatigue washed over him, but he pushed that aside too.

***

Arriving at the next point, there was a giant figure easily over 2 meters tall.

He spoke in a slow voice.

“Huh, that’s not a Wudang robe.”

Without any black-clad people or Taoists, the man was sitting cross-legged alone like a wall.

“You look like a kid I’ve seen somewhere. If you’re not a Wudang kid, can’t you just pass by? I’m a pacifist, you see.”

The man drawled in a low, slow voice.

His sleepy expression even reminded one of a sloth. However, Jin Cheonhee read the strange aura surrounding this man.

The man wasn’t afraid, wasn’t tense, he just found Jin Cheonhee bothersome.

It was strange to hear someone from the Blood Immortal Sect calling for peace in the martial world.

Jin Cheonhee said, “If you’re a pacifist, doesn’t that mean you don’t kill?”

“I don’t kill people. I kill sacrifices.”

“Are civilians people?”

“They’re sacrifices.”

At those words, Jin Cheonhee placed his hand on the Ice Clarity Sword.

“If you draw that, you’ll be a sacrifice too.”

Jin Cheonhee replied, “If you don’t like that, I’d appreciate it if you stepped aside.”

At those words, the man finally stood up.

Crunch-

As the giant body rose, a sound like stones colliding echoed.

Despite perceiving the formidable aura, Jin Cheonhee calmly spoke without showing any sign of panic.

“Is it external strength?”

“Yes. External strength received from the Blood Immortal. Have you heard of Vajra Indestructibility?”

“It must be Impenetrable to Blades and Swords.”

“Kukuku, you know about me?”

Vajra Blood Demon.

One of the toughest in the Blood Immortal Sect, with skin that sword energy can’t penetrate at all.

The strongest and toughest among the blood demons he had encountered so far, and his speed would be unmatched as well.

Jin Cheonhee dusted off his hands. Then he gave a brief hand signal to Hwanggu.

Woof!

Hwanggu barked lowly and then moved away.

“Are you making the dog run away?”

“Well, I can’t give dog food that even teeth can’t penetrate to my pet.”

“Kukuku. To dare call this Vajra Blood Demon dog food. You’re an interesting fellow.”

“Where I’m from, dog teeth are more expensive than human teeth.”

“That’s quite a funny place.”

At that moment, Jin Cheonhee’s figure disappeared for an instant.

Using a strange footwork that combined the Three-Elements Stride with the Cloud-Stepping Gait, he dove into the enemy’s blind spot and lightly swung the Ice Clarity Sword.

The mystery of the Taiji Immortal-Destruction Sword permeated the blade and attacked the enemy.

Kang!

The skin was without even a slight scratch, truly deserving the name of diamond.

With the first strike, he roughly calculated the hardness, with the second strike, the stiffness, and with the third strike, the texture. However, the Vajra Blood Demon wouldn’t wait for that.

Almost simultaneously, a fist filled Jin Cheonhee’s vision.

He held the Black Pine Cloud Sword at an angle and used the mystery of the Taiji Wisdom Sword to twist the direction of the attack.

Kagagak!

Jin Cheonhee’s afterimage scattered like foam on milk, then immediately appeared three steps behind, and the Vajra Blood Demon withdrew his fist.

“Strange. I should have hit you.”

A terrifying speed incomparable to the Withered Tree Blood Demon.

The moment one perceives it, violence should follow.

However, as neither the sensation of being hit nor the sensation of avoiding it was properly felt, the Vajra Blood Demon wore a puzzled expression.

Eventually, he said,

“Well, never mind. Anyway, your attacks don’t work on me either. Let’s call this a draw…”

At that moment, Jin Cheonhee’s afterimage appeared before his eyes.

Jin Cheonhee-style modified ultimate technique.

Water Overcomes Fire.

Opening of Yin-Yang.

Not clumsily imitating the Five Elements, but properly mastering the mystery of Taiji and imbuing it with the Five Elements.

The ultimate technique unfolded, supported by his internal energy, was Wudang’s Minor Clarity Sword!

Kwagwagwagwang!

The steam explosion that occurred right before his eyes struck the demon’s retina.

“Useless trick!”

The Vajra Blood Demon quickly closed his eyes, but that wasn’t Jin Cheonhee’s aim.

The intense heat from the steam explosion penetrated the demon’s lungs, cooking the inside.

The demon coughed severely at the ultimate technique created by the Five Elements, Taiji, and modern thermal expansion knowledge.

Jin Cheonhee wouldn’t miss that stiffness.

He laid the sword sideways and struck the demon’s solar plexus as if ringing a bell.

Kang-

Using the sword like Taiji Fist, specifically the Through-the-Back Fist principle, he drove shock into the internal organs.

“Fucking rat, aagh!”

The Vajra Blood Demon swung his fists wildly.

The wind pressure created by his fists alone toppled trees with a crash.

One hit would mean death.

Jin Cheonhee realized that no matter how much he had trained his external strength, it wasn’t enough to block those fists.

“There you are.”

At that moment, the demon’s fist, creating dozens of afterimages, swept towards Jin Cheonhee.
