Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Ma Jun watched as Ren easily subdued every opponent that attacked him. He didn't even bother to move from his spot nor did he draw any weapon. He simply used his fist to attack, in fact as if to mock him even more sometimes he would dodge in a way that made two of his opponents attack each other.

What made Ma Jun even more upset was despite getting a boost on his cultivation he could not follow Ren's movement. He was temporarily at the initial stages of the True Monarch Realm, with this much power shouldn't he be able to suppress Ren easily? That's what he thought at first, but after watching Ren for a while, he knew that it won't be that easy.

"Hey, why are you just looking over there?"

Ma Jun, seeing the cocky look on Ren's face, was growing angry once more. Still, unlike before he no longer charged out of anger as he continued to observe Ren waiting for the right moment to strike.

While Ma Jun was fully focused on Ren who was easily beating up every person that came too near, Fang Mu was having a difficult time.

Even though almost all of the focus was on his teacher, Fang Mu was still being attacked by a few Sword Cultivators. If not for the earlier fight he had with Ma Jun he would have already defeated these people, but in his current state, he found it a little difficult. He then unconsciously looked at his teacher, who was calmly standing ahead of him defeating everyone that came near.

If his teacher decided to even simply point his pinky finger at these people they would fall. Despite thinking about it, Fang Mu knew that would never happen as his teacher already said he needed to survive this ordeal on his own. Knowing this Fang Mu could only clench his teeth and continue his struggle.

...

While everyone was heating up, only Ren was getting a bit bored about all of this. The truth was he could end the entire battle whenever he wanted in so many different ways, but he chose not to as he wanted to see if this group had any more trump cards hidden.

Yet despite holding back the strongest among them did not seem like he wanted to attack. Ren sighed in his heart, it turns out the so-called Sword Cultivators weren't as valiant as he thought they would be.

'Whatever, let's see if he still won't attack if I show him an opening.'

As Ren continued to mow down the enemies every now and then he would look at his disciple Fang Mu, showing that for a few seconds he was distracted. Ma Jun obviously saw this flaw in Ren's movement.

'Even though he kept on saying he wouldn't help his disciple he's still worried. I didn't want to use this kind of tactic but the enemy is too strong... Tsk, if only the Sect master was here, or even one of the inner sect elders then this arrogant b*stard wouldn't be able to act so c*cky. I really don't want to do this, but...'

Ma Jun gritted his teeth as he soared above the battlefield, as he floated above Ren and the others he lifted his sword upward, and the image of a giant swordsman appeared behind him. The power being emitted by the giant swordsman Ma Jun summoned was nearing the level of the New God Ren fought but before he got the Branch of the ORIGIN.

When Ren saw this technique he started getting excited, but after waiting for a while Ma Jun was still not ready to strike. If it was any other opponent seeing this one-hit move, they would surely have run away or attacked Ma Jun while he was charging up. Fortunately, Ma Jun was facing Ren who wanted to experience the attack of someone at the Tru Monarch Realm.

Once he was done gathering enough Qi, Ma Jun slashed his sword downward. The image of the giant Swordsman behind Ma Jun also slashed its large blade down at his enemy. Ren could already see the trajectory of the attack, Ma Jun was clearly aiming for Fang Mu.

Ma Jun did this so that Ren would be forced not to run away and instead receive the attack head-on to protect his disciple. Ren already knew what Ma Jun was thinking since he was the one who made him act this way.

'Well, it's not like I was going to evade the attack.'

Ren quickly summoned a sword from his shadow and received the enemy's attack head-on. When Ren's blade collided with the blade of the giant Swordsman, space distorted and the ground trembled violently.

The shockwave caused by their clash pushed almost everyone nearby, Fang Mu was also blown a few feet away. The Array they had set up was nearly destroyed by their clash.

Ren who felt the weight of the enemy's strike could not help but laugh, he laughed out loud in his excitement.

"NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!"

Ren was pushed downward making the ground where he stood crack. Ren's sword was also nearing a breaking point. When Ma Jun saw this he thought that victory was close, but then Ren did something surprising. Ren actually let go of his sword and caught the Giant Sword with both of his hands. Ren could feel his entire body creaking from the pain, normal people would've passed out from this sort of pain, but to Ren, this pain was the excitement he was waiting for.

Ren was still not using any spiritual energy and was solely relying on his physical strength which had reached an absurd level. He didn't want to end this battle too early by using his spiritual energy, since this was the first time that he had fought a human opponent that could push his current body this far.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! NOW, THIS IS A BATTLE!!! AN ACTUAL BATTLE WERE OUR LIVES ARE ON THE LINE!"

A vein popped in Ren's arm, the muscles in his body were being torn apart but he continued to laugh in excitement, which not only frightened the Sword Cultivators but even his disciple Fang Mu.
