Seong Jihan, having landed on Tuseong, surveyed his surroundings.

In the sky above this desolate star, the Constellation relics were densely floating.

Two red lights, like eyes, moved as they watched him from above.

‘It looks like the Devil’s Intrusion has been lifted.’

The distortion of ‘Red’ had spiked and then dropped.

Had Dongbang Sak’s Devil’s Intrusion also been dispelled?

Seong Jihan assessed the power of Martial God felt from Tuseong.

‘He is definitely weaker than when first summoned.’

When he was summoned to Tuseong during his player days,

Martial God had far more Constellation relics, and his power was overwhelming.

But now, perhaps because he had been struck twice by Ashoka and Dongbang Sak,

He didn’t seem to possess the same overwhelming strength.

‘Even so, he remains an opponent to be dealt with using full strength.’

No matter how weakened he appeared.

The power amassed through infinite reincarnation was still sustaining him.

Even though Seong Jihan had made vast progress becoming the Blue Administrator,

He couldn’t take that power lightly.

‘It would’ve been better if the Devil’s Intrusion had continued to affect him.’

Seong Jihan thought this as he spoke up to the sky.

“Martial God, where is the Red Administrator?”

[Why are you asking me about him?]

“Wasn’t it the Red who lifted your Devil’s Intrusion?”

[…Why don’t you think I might have lifted it myself?]

“It was the Red who did it, right?”

[….]

At Seong Jihan’s confident assertion, the two fiercely glowing red lights in the sky could only remain silent.

After staring at those lights, he questioned about the Red Administrator once more.

“So where is he now, that Red guy?”

[I don’t know. He has disappeared.]

Seong Jihan frowned at this response.

He had hoped to deal with everything at once, but things had become bothersome.

‘Still, it’s better than facing a joint attack from both of them.’

Judging this, Seong Jihan activated BattleTube.

The Star Buff and Supernova upgraded by the White Administrator.

Before the battle, he decided to benefit from those effects.

-Oh, it’s the first broadcast since the training room.

-Hey, but where is this place?

-Isn’t it… the place where Martial God resides, Tuseong?

-Looking at the weapons floating in the sky, it seems so;

The viewers, who had been eagerly watching the first broadcast since the Void training grounds, quickly figured out the location after seeing the surrounding scenery on the screen.

The star of Martial God, Tuseong.

Had Ashoka not been there last time, this place would have become his grave indeed.

“I turned on BattleTube mainly for the buff. I hope you understand if I don’t respond much.”

After saying this, Seong Jihan raised the Taiji Sword and pointed it toward the sky.

“Today, I will capture Martial God.”

With a dazzling flash!

As the light from the Light Sword intensified,

Martial God in the sky spoke with a voice full of majesty.

[I will be the one to subdue you.]

Instead of directly responding,

The Constellation relics displayed a peculiar movement.

‘…Avoiding?’

Rather than confronting the point of the sword head-on,

The relics started scattering in all directions.

Was he wary of Dongbang Sak’s Taiji Sword?

‘Hmm, I intended to lure him and neutralize him with a single blow from Galactic Sword Scar.’

The opponent wouldn’t respond so simply.

He was seemingly showing that he was preparing for Seong Jihan, but in reality,

He was being exceptionally cautious of the Galactic Sword Scar that the Taiji Sword might unleash.

Martial God may not fully understand what the sword technique left behind was, but,

Seeing Seong Jihan wielding the Taiji Sword, he suspected it would unleash a mighty blow.

‘Then, even if I use the Galactic Sword Scar on the sky, it might not be as effective against Martial God as I thought.’

There was only one opportunity to use the Galactic Sword Scar.

If the opponent responded this cautiously, it might be wiser to wait until his forces were fully gathered to use it efficiently.

‘But the Taiji Sword won’t last long.’

The Taiji Sword, drawn from the sealing formation, had lost its power source.

Even if Seong Jihan infused it with the power of Eternity, it could hold out a bit longer, but,

Considering the Taiji Sword had dried up the Red World Tree,

Investing power into it wasn’t efficient.

It demanded too much to be maintained.

‘…If I were to target something better than the sky.’

As Seong Jihan’s gaze slowly lowered from the sky,

With the amplified strength from BattleTube and the immeasurable destructive power of Galactic Sword Scar,

This power could indeed bring down the sky.

‘…I can aim for something greater than just the sky.’

Seong Jihan’s gaze fell to the land beneath his feet.

The star Tuseong, ruled by Martial God.

Ordinarily, it’s not something anyone would consider cutting down, but,

‘With this sword, it’s possible.’

Seong Jihan was convinced.

With Dongbang Sak’s Taiji Sword,

Unleashing Galactic Sword Scar,

He could indeed slice through Tuseong.

Ssss…

The Taiji symbol floated behind Seong Jihan.

And the light of the Taiji Sword ascended towards the sky.

[Dongbang Sak… Even in death, you thwart me to the end!]

Shuuu…!

Seeing this, Martial God bellowed in anger.

However, the Constellation relics parted orderly to either side, avoiding the light.

Intent on evading the Taiji Sword’s attack at all costs.

-Huh? Is he really avoiding that?

-Every time he ran away, just like before.

-When he dodged during Seong Jihan’s player days, I was speechless.

-Is this what being the God of Martial Arts means…?

When the viewers saw Martial God’s nimble evasive maneuvers, they voiced their disbelief.

They thought Seong Jihan’s attack had failed when,

Suddenly, the light from the Taiji Sword ceased,

The Taiji symbol behind Seong Jihan seemed to distort,

And the black and white, clearly divided, Yin and Yang, united as one.

Infinite Annihilation God

Taiji Sword

Galactic Sword Scar

Pa-a-a-t…!

Then, the form of the Taiji Sword completely vanished.

-Huh? What’s this…

-The sword disappeared?

-Did the skill… fail?

-Oh, no…

-Will the ultimate sword end like this…?

Viewers witnessed the sword disappear, believing Seong Jihan’s attack had failed.

[What in the world…]

One of the two red lights in the sky began to descend.

And along with it,

The land of Tuseong,

The Babel Tower before his eyes,

And even the sky,

All split in half simultaneously.

* * *

-Wow…

-What did I just see?

-Did that planet just get sliced in two…?

-When the sword vanished, I thought the skill had failed;

-I should’ve taken a photo when the sword glowed over the west sea…

The power of Galactic Sword Scar, live-streamed on BattleTube, far exceeded everyone’s expectations.

“This… was meant to just cut through Tuseong, but it split everything.”

Galactic Sword Scar.

Far more powerful than he had anticipated.

Seong Jihan looked down.

The split earth could no longer support him stably.

‘Time to lift off from the ground.’

Whik!

Seong Jihan rose into the air.

And then,

Ziiiing…

The trajectory of Galactic Sword Scar belatedly shone.

A faint outline with a brilliant white glow bordered in blue.

It split Tuseong completely.

And even more, it illuminated the sky with a majestic light.

Though not visible now,

That light surely extended below the split Tuseong as well.

‘This is… Galactic Sword Scar.’

A grand name for a martial art involving swordsmanship, but

After seeing it used, it was justified.

As Seong Jihan calmly watched the lingering light.

Shoo…!

From afar, the Constellation relics began getting drawn toward the light of Galactic Sword Scar.

[Damn… Come out! Why… Why can’t I control this…!]

The red light in the sky frantically tried to control the relics, but,

Despite the attempt, the relics continued to gather into Galactic Sword Scar’s light.

‘I didn’t expect it to have this effect too?’

Not only did it split Tuseong,

It was also gathering and destroying the relics outside the range.

Dongbang Sak’s design truly held unimaginable power.

“Once again, deeply in your debt, Dongbang Sak.”

Seong Jihan gave a slight bow toward the light and observed Martial God.

The once overwhelming power seen in their first encounter was now more than halved,

No, greatly diminished.

And it would weaken further over time.

Instead of waning, Galactic Sword Scar continued to shine, absorbing the relics.

‘Dongbang Sak almost took care of everything.’

Seong Jihan watched the light, now drawing the split Tuseong and the relics closer.

He had prepared thoroughly before coming here.

But it seemed to end more easily than expected.

Seong Jihan approached the light where the red glow was.

Dongbang Sak set the stage so perfectly; it needed to be concluded properly.

When he ascended to the sky,

[Cro…]

The enormous form of a snake appeared around the remaining red light.

Specifically, the snake, split in half by Galactic Sword Scar.

Its red eyes quivering in pain.

[What kind of sword is that…]

With a feeble voice, the snake asked Seong Jihan.

“It’s a sword left by Dongbang Sak. He called it Galactic Sword Scar.”

[To think he would create such a sword… I should have eliminated him instead of trying to use him…]

“Regretting it now won’t change anything.”

[…]

Chii-ik…

Radiant light engulfed the snake’s split wounds.

Marks of the sword preventing its regeneration.

Upon closer inspection, Martial God couldn’t heal his wounds.

How could he control the relics then?

‘Here, I just need to deliver the finishing blow.’

Ssss…

The Taiji symbol reappeared behind Seong Jihan.

At the sight, the snake flinched.

When the black Taiji Sword manifested in his hand,

[That’s… your sword.]

The snake visibly relaxed.

‘This guy’s reaction is so predictable.’

Relieved it wasn’t Dongbang Sak’s Taiji Sword, huh?

Though understandable considering what happened, seeing his reaction made Seong Jihan want to demonstrate its power.

‘But there’s nothing much to cut down now.’

The snake, split by Galactic Sword Scar, had half of its body already sucked into the light.

The remaining half flailed ineffectively with its wounds.

A single effective strike would end the battle on Tuseong.

‘Let’s finish this quickly.’

Pa-a-at…

Blue energy swirled around Seong Jihan’s sword,

Ready to sever the remaining snake.

Then,

Whoosh…!

Before the snake’s head, red flames erupted.

[You are indeed merciless.]

The flames subsided,

Revealing a giant red eye.

[How can a god of martial arts not even withstand a single strike? Failing to even buy time. Tsk, tsk…]

“…You.”

[It’s been a while, Blue Administrator.]

“You must be the Red Administrator.”

[Correct. Seems my creation fell short of your expectations.]

Spark…

The red eye glimmered,

And blood-red droplets began to fall.

[But… things will be different now.]
