Kapitel 70: Chapter 70
Chapter 70:
It was God manifest on earth. Cheon Mujin's levitating figure struck fear to the enemy soldier and reverence to his own men.
"F-Fear not!" Hwangbin tried to remain calm but the impending figure of Cheon Mujin looking down at all of them from the sky made him tremble.
Each step that Cheon Mujin took within the air made the atmosphere heavier and heavier. Instead of stopping right in front of the army, he headed right into the center. But mind you, he was still in the sky, gaining altitude by each step he took.
His action seems to confuse the army, usually when someone does something like this they stop in front of their opponent and unfold some ridiculous and absurd feat. Hwangbin would certainly do this, as he have already done so.
One time when he fought against the Bandits of Blue Hills he did the same where he walked confidently in front of them and deployed
his Thunder Fist Technique. It was kinda similar to what he expected Cheon Mujin would do but it seems that his thought was wrong.
Then suddenly as things were about to get more confusing, the latter stopped in the middle of the entire army, above them. And without any beat wasted he brought up his foot as if about to stomp and then… there was no then.
He just fell from the sky as if gravity itself pulled him down to the ground. His figure blitz towards the earth and when he was about to land, he stomped his foot right into the ground.
The earth shook, Cheon Mujin grilled into the very earth that the entire area he landed on produced spider weblike cracks.
"Waaaaaahhhhhh!!"
"It's the end of the world!!"
"A god!!"
The entire army panicked. Disaster befell on them. But that's not the end of their misery.
From the crevices formed from Cheon Mujin's bizzare action, lava flowed out and consumed those who were unfortunate enough to be near them.
The red molting lava embraced the warriors with no care, its high temperature melting through their skin as effortlessly. The years of martial art they dedicated themselves through didn't help them at all. No amount of martial art will.
The formidable army of Jiangxi fell. Not by the combined might of the enemy but by a single action of one man, could he even be called a man?
What Cheon Mujin did was replicate the military theory modern aged humans always babble about. The Rod of God.
The "Rod of God" is a term that has been colloquially used to refer to a theoretical kinetic energy weapon concept. This concept involves using a large, dense projectile (often compared to a rod) or giant tungsten rod, and accelerating it to high velocities before releasing it from orbit to impact a target on Earth.
The idea is to exploit the kinetic energy resulting from the high-speed impact rather than using explosive warheads.
Cheon Mujin replicated that, but instead of launching himself from orbit, he launched himself three kilometers high up in the sky. But not only that but he increased his weight by using an obscene amount of force qi, an amount that is enough to annihilate an entire hill.
Emerging from the depths of the earth. Cheon Mujin once again flew, with molten lava clung onto his skin, but none of them produced any damage whatsoever.
"Alright." He looked at the enemy. Not even half of it remained, just from the looks of it only 200 or so survived.
"Round them up" Force qi imbued upon his voice trumpeted throughout the entire field, soon his thousand man army heed his command.

It is the rule in war, if our forces are ten to the enemy's one, to surround him; if five to one, to attack him; if twice as numerous, to divide our army into two.
If equally matched, we can offer battle; if slightly inferior in numbers, we can avoid the enemy; if quite unequal in every way, we can flee from him. -The Art of War, Chapter 3, Attack by Strategem.
And so Cheon Mujin did as it was told. He rounded the remaining devastated force and escorted them to his camp.
The Jiangxi Force expected that they would survive, since it is one of the rules of war that prisoners of war would be treated humanely and be given the chance to be bailed out by their alliance leader.
However they are in for a surprise.
After arriving at the camp they noticed that there were several cages; iron cages in the camp. Upon closer look Hwangbin saw that within those cages were tigers. The king of the mountain.
'When did the Demon Cult domesticate animals?' He thought. The Sovereign Dominion's SkyDemon Order is a very straightforward religious organization, they do not rely on animals for combat that's why before Cheon Mujin the art of cavalry was basically non-existent. That's why it's such a surprise for him.
He had so many questions but no answers.
"You are the Thundering Fist right? Hwangbin, the leader of the Jiangxi Forces" A cultist approached him and asked sternly.
Keeping his image as the commanding leader of the Jiangxi Force, he straightened his back and replied.
"Yes, I indeed am."
"Come with me, you'll be escorted the Supreme Sovereign's tent"
'Supreme Sovereign? Not Lord? Didn't the Demon Cult call their leader by Lord? Did something change within the Cult?' Questioned Hwangbin inside his mind.
Another stack of questions came to mind. But he gotta wait, so he just followed the Cultist to the largest tent in the camp.
The tent, no, not tent but more like a full blown wooden house was there, not the ones you would see from a military campaign. Even the exterior of the house was intricately woven as if an architect designed it for luxury not militaristic.
This further confused Hwangbin.
Before walking inside the cultist stopped him and gave him the most menacing and fanatic look he had ever seen in his entire life.
"I will warn you. Do not ever show disrespect towards the Supreme Sovereign, if you do, you'll see something worse than death. I promise you that," The cultist said with fervent and blind loyalty as if he was talking about his god. This made Hwangbin flinched, not from the intimidation but by the intensity of the latter's fanaticism.
After that exchange he was soon escorted inside, and from the very middle of the establishment was a figure seated on a cleopatra sofa seated like an egyptian king. He was wearing a very loose robe that looks like he just grabbed a huge cloth somewhere and used it as cover. Behind him are four figures; two holding a giant fan bobbing it up and down gently producing a gentle breeze.
One was a woman holding a tray of fruits feeding grapes to the seated man. While the last one was a woman massaging the latter, however she was no ordinary masseur, she was a martial artist. This just shows how dense the man's muscles were that in order for it to be massaged, a martial artist is needed.
Since the throne-like sofa was in the very middle there was a lot of space to surround him, and each of those spaces were occupied. Occupied by dozens of men in military uniform bowing down their heads while prostrating on all fours.
The very middle was the supreme sovereign. Cheon Mujin.
