Chapter 291 Marquis Eastcalm Meng Chuan, You Have Nowhere to Run!
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky and headed straight for Silver Lake Pa.s.s.
Faster, faster. Meng Chuan looked at the blood-colored dot on the token. He reeled in anxiety. In a few more seconds, he might be able to save one or two G.o.dfiends. Even though he was known for being extremely fast, Meng Chuan still felt like he wasn’t fast enough.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ The scenery below became blurry. Mountains, rivers, plains, and forests flashed by.
I’m here. Meng Chuan immediately saw the abandoned Silver Lake Pa.s.s in the distance. The moment he received the help request, Meng Chuan traveled 350 kilometers at full speed. He arrived at Silver Lake Pa.s.s in 30 seconds!
Whoosh. Meng Chuan’s body flashed, and he arrived at the abandoned city pa.s.s.
He immediately saw the World Entrance that was about one kilometer long. Many demon monarch corpses and G.o.dfiend corpses piled around the World Entrance. With just a glance, Meng Chuan discovered three G.o.dfiend corpses. The G.o.dfiend corpses had been dismembered. Some heads had been penetrated. He could see a few chests ripped open. He obviously knew the dead G.o.dfiends. There were too many World Entrances, so Archean Mountain couldn’t arrange for Marquis G.o.dfiends to guard every single one of them. Great Solar G.o.dfiend teams guarded some of the World Entrances.
Open! Meng Chuan opened his third eye at his glabella and used his Divine Eye of Lightning to scan the area.
He probed the underground with his electromagnetic domain. Meng Chuan instantly discovered two G.o.dfiend corpses underground. Following that, he discovered demon monarchs pursuing G.o.dfiends.
Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up as he immediately swooped down. There are still G.o.dfiends alive.
The G.o.dfiend, Wei Cheng, was escaping underground with all his might. However, he felt despair. I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape.
Their team had a total of eight Great Solar G.o.dfiends. Most were older and stronger. Three had the strength of a weak Marquis G.o.dfiend. The other five had peak Great Solar G.o.dfiend strength. Such a team was much stronger than Meng Chuan’s trio that had killed Blackwater Palace Lord. They could easily slaughter a group of third Firmament demon monarchs.
Who would have thought that they would encounter a demon monarch team? The six fourth Firmament demon monarchs all had unfathomable strength. Three had the strength of a peak Marquis G.o.dfiend. When the six demon monarchs worked together, they were comparable to an ordinary Regis G.o.dfiend.
The difference in strength was too great.
Although we immediately chose to escape underground when we discovered the fourth Firmament demon monarch team, the difference in strength is too great. Senior Brother Fang and the other two died before they could even burrow into the ground. The rest split up and fled, hoping that one or two would escape. As for me, I definitely won’t be able to escape. As Wei Cheng ran with all his might, he felt a tentacle rapidly approaching him.
Underground reconnaissance was very difficult. Therefore, escaping underground meant a higher chance of survival as long as they could shake off and distance themselves from their enemies. However, Great Solar G.o.dfiends were much weaker than fourth Firmament demon monarchs. Most of the Great Solar G.o.dfiends didn’t have time or weren’t fast enough to open up a gap. It was very difficult for them to escape.
“Demon Monarch, die!” An angry shout that contained Darkstar Quintessential Essence spread underground.
“Huh?”
“Who is it?”
“I can sense the aura of a Marquis G.o.dfiend.”
The six fourth Firmament demon monarchs had split up because they were pursuing multiple Great Solar G.o.dfiends. Of course, they didn’t go too far from each other.
At this moment, everyone was shocked.
Upon sensing the explosive Darkstar Quintessential Essence, the fourth Firmament demon monarchs stopped pursuing the Great Solar G.o.dfiends. Instead, they quickly gathered together. It would take them time to pursue the three remaining G.o.dfiends, so they might as well deal with a Marquis G.o.dfiend! Killing a Marquis G.o.dfiend was more attractive than killing 20 Great Solar G.o.dfiends.
“Die.” The enraged Meng Chuan charged underground as lightning bolts blazed towards the nearest 100-foot-tall ox demon monarch.
The ox demon monarch looked up at Meng Chuan and grinned. His laughter resounded through the ground. “It’s Marquis Eastcalm, Meng Chuan!” He brandished his staff as he laughed.
Clang~~~
Meng Chuan slashed down with his saber. The ox demon monarch swung his staff upward.
The saber and staff collided!
Meng Chuan didn’t use his Darkstar Quintessential Essence to activate Demon Slayer’s runes. He allowed the saber and staff to collide.
After the clash, Meng Chuan was sent flying backward. He had a slight strength disadvantage.
“It’s Marquis Eastcalm, Meng Chuan?” Another ox demon monarch’s eyes lit up.
“Marquis Eastcalm, Meng Chuan. He’s the fastest in the world. He killed many demons when providing reinforcements!” A fox demon was rather excited.
“The credit for killing him is no less than killing a Regis G.o.dfiend.”
“Don’t let him escape.”
“We will surround him underground. It’s difficult to detect people in close proximity when underground. It’ll be difficult for him to discover us.”
The demon monarchs carefully surrounded him from all directions.
“Demon Monarch, you sure are strong. Take a few more strikes from me.” Meng Chuan charged over with killing intent as his figure turned ghost-like.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The ox demon monarch brandished his staff. His terrifying might caused the void to distort. The surrounding soil and rocks were reduced to dust, but he was still in a sorry state when facing Meng Chuan’s speed. Swallow Stance. Meng Chuan instantly split into more than ten blurry figures. Every time, he struck out with his saber, the ox demon monarch tried his best to block it. Two of his saber strikes landed on his body, leaving only two wounds.
Pfft.
Finally, the next saber attack stabbed through the ox demon monarch’s ear with great difficulty. It seemed like it was very difficult for Demon Slayer to pierce through the ox demon monarch’s ear.
“Scram.” The ox demon monarch sensed the danger of death and quickly slapped Meng Chuan.
Meng Chuan took the brunt of the strike and thrust his saber into the depths of the ox demon monarch’s head.
Meng Chuan’s Quintessential Essence completely destroyed the interior of his head. The ox demon monarch’s eyes widened. He had clearly lured Meng Chuan over, but he ended up as the one dying? “Hahaha, cough cough cough.” Meng Chuan was sent flying by the slap. He couldn’t help but cough out blood. However, his face was filled with excitement as though killing a powerful fourth Firmament demon monarch was a great accomplishment. “Brother.”
“Brother.”Boom! Two other ox demon monarchs rushed out from the soil and rocks. Their eyes widened as they looked at their dead brother in disbelief.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
A large number of tentacles extended from the soil and attacked Meng Chuan.
Black fog floated over and enveloped Meng Chuan.
“Marquis Eastcalm Meng Chuan, you have nowhere to run!” The five angry demon monarchs had completely surrounded Meng Chuan. They were furious that they had lost one of their teammates despite clearly holding the absolute advantage. Previously, they were afraid of Meng Chuan’s legendary speed, so they carefully surrounded Meng Chuan to ensure that he wouldn’t escape.
Now that one of their teammates had died, the remaining five were even more furious.
“Revenge for Big Brother!” The remaining two ox demon monarchs roared. The other three demon monarchs attacked Meng Chuan simultaneously.
“What? Five demon monarchs?” Meng Chuan’s expression changed drastically. He frantically tried to escape upward, luring the demon monarchs into trying their best to stop him.
