Chapter 454 Report
“It’s a great victory to have that array formation destroyed.” King Molten watched the demons leave and said, “The demons made 18 fifth Firmament demon monarchs undergo a life modification process and ultimately set up this array formation. They clearly spared no expense when nurturing them. Fortunately, King Eastcalm was able to crack this array formation.”
“It’s a pity that Junior Brother Yun and King Gu Eyes lost their lives,” said Peng Mu softly.
“How can there be no casualties in war?” King Molten said. “As long as we win, it’s worth it.”
Huh? Meng Chuan looked into the distance. After reaching the Grotto-Heaven realm, his perception of the world was acute. At that moment, he could clearly sense part of the World Gap being destroyed in the distance.
Boom!
The world membrane was being attacked.
King True Martial waved his hand, and an image appeared in the void—one of a distant area.
Monarch Peac.o.c.k, Holy Lady Strings, and Patriarch Poison Dragon were attacking the world membrane. Soon, they blasted a rift open in the World Gap and the Demon Realm’s world membranes.
The three of them flew into the Demon Realm. Soon, the world membranes quickly recovered to their normal states.
“They have returned to the Demon Realm,” said King True Martial with a frown. “We may have had the upper hand in this battle, but the demons had only sent their vanguard. After knowing our battle capabilities, the three demon Imperial Lords will definitely think of ways to nurture those fifth Firmament demon monarchs. They will also think of ways to deal with us. We still need to be careful.”
“The demons’ goal isn’t to defeat us,” said King Thousand Wood solemnly. “Their true goal is to send large groups of fifth Firmament demon monarchs into the human world.”
“Once they enter the human world, the fifth Firmament demon monarchs will split up and take action. Once they take action, they will probably wipe out most of our human cities,” said King Calm Sea with a nod.
Everyone present fell silent.
This was the bitter truth.
Currently, there were very few demon monarchs—which were lurking in the human world—that had reached the fifth Firmament. At most, they were all newly-advanced fifth Firmament demon monarchs. None of them dared to attack cities guarded by Regis G.o.dfiends.
However, if a group of heavily-nurtured fifth Firmament demon monarchs—who had cultivated for many years—entered the human world, they wouldn’t be afraid of Regis G.o.dfiends. They would attack all the large cities that weren’t guarded by Creation Supremacies. Regis G.o.dfiends might be able to fight them one-on-one, but the demon monarchs’ goal was to destroy the cities. It was difficult for human Regis G.o.dfiends to stop them.
Causing destruction was much easier than protecting something. A large-scale domain attack-spanning over 50 kilometers—could instantly wipe out all living beings within an area. It would be easy for these demon monarchs to slaughter the mortals residing in the cities.
Just one operation undertaken by a large number of fifth Firmament demon monarchs would result in the destruction of over 90% of the human cities. No matter how powerful Meng Chuan was, he was only one person. He could only save one city at a time.
“That’s why we have to stop them,” said Meng Chuan. “We have to report the results of this battle to the three sects.”
“Junior Brother Meng, go back on my behalf,” said King True Martial.
Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright.”
King True Martial had to stay behind to maintain the group’s safety when the demons attacked again. Meng Chuan was the only Regis G.o.dfiend in this group who could guarantee his own safety while working alone. “King Eastcalm, I’ll go back with you,” said King Northcleanse.
“King Eastcalm, please pa.s.s the news to Two World Island on my behalf as well,” said King Thousand Wood. “Let’s distribute the war spoils and let King Eastcalm bring them back.”
Boom!
Meng Chuan used his Bloodblade to tear a huge hole open in the World Gap and the human world’s world membranes. Meng Chuan flew through the huge hole and returned to Archean Mountain.
He first flew towards Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
Archean Mountain is still peaceful. Meng Chuan looked around as he flew. Although the battle in the World Gap was crazy and harrowing, the human world—including the three major sects-remained relatively peaceful. It was a rare period of peace in the past 800 years.
One had to know that…
In the past 800 years, even in the early stages of the invasion, many small and medium-sized World Entrances had to be guarded to ensure the entire human world’s safety. It was only until later that they could no longer defend all of the World Entrances.
Humanity gave up on the small and medium-sized World Entrances, causing more and more demon monarchs to enter the human world. When one million demon monarchs appeared in the human world to wreak havoc, village forts, prefecture cities, and county cities were abandoned one after another. Countless people died. Only when Meng Chuan rose to prominence did he completely resolve the threat of a million demon monarchs.
Meng Chuan also understood that this was a temporary peace.
Swoosh.
Meng Chuan landed in Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
“Supremacies, Master.” Meng Chuan bowed and greeted the three Supremacies.
Li Guan, an illusory Qin Wu, and an illusory Luo Tang were gathered together, waiting for Meng Chuan.
Li Guan drank tea as he sat at a table. After taking a sip of tea, he smiled. “Sit.”
Meng Chuan sat down and drank a mouthful of tea.
“You came back alone?” asked the illusory Luo Tang in surprise. “They can’t leave w.i.l.l.y-nilly,” said Meng Chuan. “Also, there’s a reason why I came back to report.”
“What happened?” asked Li Guan.
Meng Chuan said, “Today, the demons finally sent a team into the World Gap to deal with us. Senior Brother Yun Jianhai and King Gu Eyes from Two World Island have died in battle.”
“What?” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were alarmed. “Tell me what happened in detail,” said Li Guan immediately.
Meng Chuan nodded and said, “I brought a letter from King Thousand Wood with me. It’s to be delivered to Two World Island. The letter describes the battle. Supremacies, you can read this letter as well. King Thousand Wood wrote this letter to prevent our Archean Mountain from fabricating stories.” With that said, he took out the letter and handed it to Li Guan.
Li Guan received the letter; Qin Wu and Luo Tang read it from the side.
The letter wasn’t long, but the key points were mentioned.
“It’s no wonder he wants to send this letter.” Li Guan nodded. “King True Martial and he worked together to kill Demon Monarch Coldmoon and obtained a Tribulation treasure. Speaking of which, Two World Island doesn’t have any Tribulation treasures, right?”
“Two World Island’s heritage is a little shallow. They haven’t given birth to an Imperial Lord. They probably don’t have any Tribulation treasures,” said Qin Wu. “I never expected them to obtain a Tribulation treasure in the World Gap.”
“It’s written here that King True Martial and King Thousand Wood contributed the most to Demon Monarch Coldmoon’s death. King True Martial has 70% of the credit, while King Thousand Wood takes the remaining 30%,” said Li Guan. “We will discuss how we should split the war spoils with Two World Island.”
With a flip of his hand, a dark short sword appeared in Meng Chuan’s hand.
“The Tribulation treasure is this sword,” said Meng Chuan.
Li Guan received it and put it away after a brief inspection. “We will discuss this with Two World Island later.”
“According to the letter, 18 demon monarchs set up a ma.s.sive array formation that spanned 400 kilometers in length?” asked Li Guan. “Each of these 18 demon monarchs underwent a life modification process?”
“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded. “The array formation was extremely powerful. King Gu Eyes and Senior Brother Yun mainly died because of this array formation.” “You were the one who destroyed this array formation?” Qin Wu asked curiously. “According to the letter, this array formation suppressed King True Martial’s domain and completely trapped many of you G.o.dfiends. Later, you entered the deep void and killed the 18 demon monarchs one by one, thus destroying the array formation?”
Meng Chuan nodded. “Yes.”
“Such a powerful array formation will definitely suppress the void. How did you get close?” asked Qin Wu.
“To be honest, Master, I’ve finally made a breakthrough after cultivating in the World Gap for so many years,” said Meng Chuan. “My Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique has reached the Grotto-Heaven realm. That’s how I could enter a very deep void layer and kill the 18 demon monarchs with my Bloodblades.”
“You’ve reached the Grotto-Heaven realm?” Luo Tang was pleasantly surprised. “Yes, you reaching the Grotto-Heaven realm at the age of 75 is also within our expectations. How many embodiments do you project in the outside world when you enter the deep void? 81? 108”
Meng Chuan shook his head. “No embodiments are projected in the outside world.”
