Chapter 351 Mask
Archean Mountain, Grotto-Heaven Pavilion’s backyard.
It was still an ordinary-looking room. Two tiny black dots flew out from the painting hanging on the wall. They grew larger and larger; they were Qin Wu and Meng Chuan.
Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s control over s.p.a.ce reached an unimaginable level. Meng Chuan turned his head and looked at the painting in admiration.
If this era had an expert like Ancestral Master Archean Eon, the demons would be simply courting death if they dared to invade. Unfortunately, although the human race had a long history, Ancestral Master Archean Eon was the only one that had truly shocked many worlds.
“Meng Chuan.” Li Guan pushed open the door and walked in.
Meng Chuan bowed. “Supremacy.”
“Your current speed far exceeds your past speed when using the Bloodblade Disc,” said Li Guan. “I’m afraid that you’ll sweep through the underground demon monarchs in our Great Zhou Dynasty in a few months.”
Meng Chuan nodded. In the past few years, he had perused more than half of the lightning lineage manuals. He was bound to be much faster in the near future.
“Although you were fast, you only slaughtered tens of thousands of demon monarchs in a year. Although the demons searched everywhere for your ident.i.ty, you didn’t pose a serious threat,” said Li Guan. “With your current speed, you can sweep through everywhere under the three dynasties in three to four years. Every year, you will be slaughtering hundreds of thousands of demon monarchs! The demons will definitely go crazy. “The demon world has a much longer history than ours. Although they have never produced an expert like Ancestral Master Archean Eon, there are at least several Imperial Lords in every era. In history, the demons have given birth to ten experts at the Fifth Tribulation or Sixth Tribulation realm. The demon world also has extremely rich heritage. If they aren’t hesitant to pay any price, I believe they will have a way to find out your true ident.i.ty.” Li Guan looked at Meng Chuan.
Meng Chuan’s heart tightened. The more he knew, the more he understood the foundation of a powerful world. The demons couldn’t do much only because they were separated by a world.
“Therefore, after you leave, you have to be more careful about keeping your ident.i.ty a secret.” Li Guan flipped his hand and took out a gray mask. “This is a rare treasure, Mask of Illusion. It’s used to conceal one’s ident.i.ty. It can s.h.i.+eld you from detection and disguise your aura. Even an Imperial Lord will find it difficult to break through its obstruction and probe your true appearance. Whenever you are carrying out your mission, wear it.”
“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded. He knew very well how powerful mighty figures were. The Seamless domain could probe one’s lifespan and allow them to sense grudges. What if it were a more brilliant technique?
If he revealed himself and used his full strength, the demons might discover his true ident.i.ty.
“With this mask, you can provide reinforcements everywhere.” Li Guan sighed. “The ordinary demon monarchs attack various cities every month. Fourth Firmament demon monarch teams and fifth Firmament demon monarchs occasionally ambush our G.o.dfiends. Occasionally, Marquis G.o.dfiends will die. Your current speed is even more impressive than before. You are the most suitable person for rescuing them.”
“Understood.” Meng Chuan nodded and received the gray mask. He easily controlled the gray mask with his Quintessential Essence and gently put it on his face.
His aura immediately changed. His expression turned colder. Even Meng Chuan’s hair had turned white.
“Haha, these strands of white hair are quite interesting,” said Qin Wu with a smile. “G.o.dfiends have rather long lifespans. They can typically maintain their youthful looks for years. Only when they reach a certain age will they be unable to control their aging appearance. That’s when their hair begins to turn white. With these strands of white hair, the demons will believe that you are an ancient Regis G.o.dfiend.”
For example, Fairy Meng originally had the appearance of a middle-aged woman. She only appeared aged after being severely injured. For a G.o.dfiend’s hair to turn white? A G.o.dfiend would have to be rather old. Regis G.o.dfiends had to be 400 years old before this happened.
“Very good.” Li Guan nodded in approval.
“Then, I’ll take my leave first.” Meng Chuan bowed to the two Supremacies.
“We have kept the news of you becoming a Regis G.o.dfiend a secret. You also have to keep it a secret,” exhorted Li Guan. “Alright, go.”
Meng Chuan nodded and walked out of the room. He transformed into a beam of light and quickly left Archean Mountain.
At the door, Li Guan and Qin Wu looked into the distance.
“It’s up to Meng Chuan to deal with the million demon monarchs,” said Li Guan.
“With what he has shown from his cultivation, he might bring us more surprises. For example, he may become an invincible Creation Supremacy,” said Qin Wu with antic.i.p.ation.
“He hasn’t even reached the Creation realm. He’s far from being an invincible Creation Supremacy,” said Li Guan with a smile. “As for you, Junior Brother Qin, if you can progress another two steps, you can be considered invincible in the Creation realm.”
“Difficult.” Qin Wu only said one word.
Invincible at the Creation realm? That was what Grandsire Yin Yang had achieved at his peak. Of course, if an Imperial Lord or an expert with an eighth-level Essence Soul appeared, the war would end completely. However, these two things were even more difficult to achieve.
Meng Chuan returned to Jiang State Capital first.
Swoosh.
When Meng Chuan landed in the small courtyard, his Seamless domain sensed Liu Qiyue—who was cultivating Phoenix Flight. His wife had s.h.i.+elded herself from probing, but he could easily detect her with the Seamless domain.
“Ah Chuan.” Liu Qiyue streaked across the sky and landed in the courtyard, her face filled with delight.
“Your movement technique…” Meng Chuan was somewhat shocked. When his wife flew through the sky, her trajectory carried a stunning beauty. “Qiyue, you broke through?”
In the past, he had often seen his wife cultivate Phoenix Flight, but it was far inferior to her current standard.
Liu Qiyue nodded with a smile. “Yes.” “Dharma Domain realm?” Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up.
“That’s right. It’s all thanks to the Phoenix Flight you gave me. This is definitely the most suitable technique for a Phoenix Divine Body G.o.dfiend,” said Liu Qiyue.
“That’s great. As long as your Essence Soul breaks through, you will become a Regis G.o.dfiend.” Meng Chuan was rather excited. If his wife became a Regis G.o.dfiend, it meant that she could live for 500 years. As a Regis G.o.dfiend, her normal strength would be enough to deal with most problems. It would be unlikely for her to be forced to cast Phoenix’s Nirvana when the demons attacked the city. “I can’t rush an Essence Soul breakthrough. By the way, Ah Chuan, Archean Mountain sent me a letter and asked me to keep your Regis G.o.dfiend status a secret. It won’t be publicly announced,” said Liu Qiyue. “I have to keep a low profile,” said Meng Chuan. “This is because I will kill more underground demon monarchs. The demons will be more anxious, and they’ll use any means to discover my ident.i.ty.”
Liu Qiyue nodded and smiled. “I’ll prepare some food for you.”
“Alright, I haven’t eaten a single bite in the past three months. I’ve long been craving for some food,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.
After a sumptuous meal, the couple chatted for an hour.
“Are you going out today?” asked Liu Qiyue.
“It’s already past noon,” said Meng Chuan. “I’ll head out to hunt for six hours before returning.”
“Be careful,” instructed Liu Qiyue. “Don’t worry.” Meng Chuan smiled and disappeared in a second.
When wearing the Mask of Illusion, Meng Chuan’s hair was white. He rode the Bloodblade Disc underground as he hunted down demon monarchs.
Swoosh.
A beam of light traveled underground.
With the Bloodblade Disc, the soil and rocks had a lower impact on Meng Chuan’s speed. The impact on his speed was almost negligible. In fact, it was the world’s suppression that affected his speed the most. Meng Chuan maintained a speed of 55 kilometers per flash underground. He could travel from the Great Zhou Dynasty’s south to the north in less than 300 seconds; he could do the same from east to west.
After scanning one area over and over again, he conducted a blanket search on 95% of the land at the same depth.
Once Meng Chuan discovered a demon lair within 1.5 kilometers of him, his Quintessential Essence threads easily killed any third Firmament demon monarch within his Seamless domain.
He carried out his underground reconnaissance non-stop. Although the demon monarch lairs were located at different depths underground, there were plenty of demon monarchs to be found. He finished six hours of reconnaissance. I killed 433 demon monarchs. Meng Chuan flew out from the ground and looked down as he flew all the way to Jiang State Capital. Meng Chuan summed up his harvests as he traveled through the dark sky.
If I can kill so many in half of a day’s work, I should be able to kill 800 demon monarchs a day. Meng Chuan nodded inwardly. That should be about 200,000 to 300,000 demon monarchs a year. I’ll kill all the demon monarchs in the three dynasties in three to four years. It’s about what I expected. The Supremacies are right. The demons will definitely become anxious soon.
