Archean Eon Art Chapter 169

Chapter 169 - Demonic Transformation

“From the looks of it, we have spies in Skydemon Sect’s upper echelons,” said Yang Fang with a smile after he read the letter.

Meng Chuan and Zhang Yunfeng nodded.

They had expected such attacks to occur. Although Two World Island had the largest territory, it mainly consisted of islands, forests, and mountains. These environments were why the Great Yue Dynasty had a low population density. If the demons wanted to attack, they would obviously attack places with high population densities!

“During the Great Relocation Plan, the state capitals and prefecture cities will be at their weakest. We have to survive this,” said Zhang Yunfeng. “Seven million people in Jiang State depend on us.”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan and Yang Fang were solemn as well.

Once the Great Relocation Plan was finished, Marquis Godfiends would join them. The state capitals would be better defended then.

Meng Chuan worked hard every day, patrolling the city again and again. However, he did not find any new spies.

“One of the two Skydemon Sect disciples has secretly left the city,” said Meng Chuan to Zhang Yunfeng and Yang Fang. “I’ll follow him now.”

“If he travels over 100 kilometers away from the city, give up,” said Zhang Yunfeng. “The city still relies on us to fend off Skydemons and demon monarchs.”

“Understood.” Meng Chuan left quietly. He restrained his lightning and moved silently. He moved at 70 percent his normal speed, but it was more than enough to tail a mortal.

Whoosh. Whoosh.

Jiang State Capital was one of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s ten major cities. The city wall was 80 kilometers long. Godfiends had been involved in the construction of the city.

Phew. Meng Chuan silently jumped over the 300 foot tall city wall and landed a kilometer away from it. In the blink of an eye, he caught up with the rapidly fleeing Skydemon Sect disciple.

“I left Jiang State alive.” Qian Rucheng ran. As a mortal expert that had condensed a demon core, he was faster than a horse when using a movement technique. Furthermore, he was very hidden because he was not traveling on official roads. Traveling on official roads would be too conspicuous.

Qian Rucheng was overjoyed. It was very dangerous for him to enter Jiang State Capital to investigate. Not only did he survive, but he had also obtained the desired intelligence. The Skydemon Sect would reward him heavily.

How slow. Meng Chuan was over half a kilometer behind Qian Rucheng. He had to maintain the speed of a Core Condensation Mortal.

Qian Rucheng fled with all his might. Finally, he arrived at a peach tree forest—15 kilometers from Jiang State Capital. Peach trees were everywhere, and some flowers had already bloomed. This would look very beautiful in the day, but it would also look quite eerie during the night.

When he arrived at the peach blossom forest, Qian Rucheng took out a whistle and blew it. The whistle produced a sound wave—that couldn’t be heard by the human ear at all—that quickly spread out.

The way the Skydemon Sect passes information is quite interesting. Meng Chuan sensed the Heaven and Earth powers being stirred when the faint sound waves spread outwards. It was surprising that such a whistle could disturb the Heaven and Earth powers.

They didn’t wait long.

They’re coming. Meng Chuan sensed an aura rapidly approaching the Skydemon Sect disciple, Qian Rucheng. This person’s demonic aura was much stronger than the disciples that had snuck into Jiang State Capital. It was likely a Skydemon.

That is? Meng Chuan retrieved his aura and silently approached. When he was half a kilometer away, he could see everything with the faint moonlight illuminating the area.

A black fog rapidly flew over. When it reached Qian Rucheng’s side, it condensed into a black-robed elder with a goatee.

When Qian Rucheng saw the elder, he immediately greeted the man, “Elder.”

“Disciple-Nephew Qian.” The goateed elder’s eyes glowed dark-red as he smiled. “Have you found anything?”

“I was in charge of investigating three Godfiend residences. I’ve found some information.” Qian Rucheng took out a letter and handed it over respectfully. “It’s all written here. Elder, please take a look.”

The goateed elder received it and read the letter. He smiled. “Very good. Let’s wait a little longer. We’ll talk when the other disciples are here.”

“Yes.” Qian Rucheng obediently stood by the side. He didn’t dare leave. As spies, they returned together after their mission was completed. They were forbidden from contacting the outside world for a period.

The goateed elder and Qian Rucheng waited in the peach blossom forest. Meng Chuan silently observed them from half a kilometer away.

An hour later, another spy came to the peach blossom forest and blew the silent whistle. The goateed elder, Qian Rucheng, and the spy met up. This spy was naturally the other person Meng Chuan had placed his Essence Soul mark on.

The night gradually passed…

The goateed elder raised his head and saw a fuzzy light in the horizon. He frowned and said, “Only the two of you survived?”

The two looked at each other in fear.

Seventeen disciples went in, but only two came out?

“Despite not having a Marquis Godfiend in Jiang State Capital, so many disciples actually failed to return?” The goateed elder frowned slightly before chuckling coldly. “It looks like the Godfiends have set up a trap in Jiang State Capital. Unfortunately, without a Marquis Godfiend, those ordinary Godfiends are useless.”

“This is the address.” The goateed elder threw out a furled piece of paper. “Quickly head there.”

The duo looked at the piece of paper and nodded immediately.

Whoosh.

A large amount of black fog emanated from the goateed elder before he transformed into a black bird. The black bird soared into the sky.

When Meng Chuan saw this, his heart trembled. He can fly?

The Skydemon cultivation system was special. They cultivated demonic powers with a human body. They would gradually transform into demons, but they were different from real demons. For example, this goateed elder could transform into a bird.

If he flies too high, I won’t be able to chase after him. Meng Chuan sighed.

Swoosh!

The black bird soared into the sky and rose to an altitude of 1000 feet. However, a bolt of lightning shot into the sky from the bleach blossom forest and towards him. The bolt of lightning was very fast as it flew towards the bird that was still soaring higher.

Not good. The black bird also noticed the lightning strike. He knew that things weren’t looking good. He desperately spread his wings and flew higher. The goateed elder could fly very high. It wasn’t difficult for him to reach an altitude of tens of thousands of feet or even hundreds of thousands of feet.

However, he wasn’t given time to fly that high.

That’s… The black bird only saw a blurry figure inside the lightning. Following that, Great Solar Quintessential Essence threads entered his body and instantly sealed his demonic core. He could no longer use a sliver of his demonic powers.

The black bird transformed back to his human form.

Meng Chuan held the goateed elder’s neck with one hand as though he was grabbing a chicken.

It’s over. It’s a human Godfiend. I’ve fallen into the hands of a Godfiend. The goateed elder’s heart chilled.

Inside the lightning, one could see a human figure.

“A Godfiend.” Qian Rucheng and the other Skydemon Sect disciple were horrified. Skydemon Sect disciples were most afraid of encountering Godfiends. They quickly fled in fear.

Boom! Boom!

Meng Chuan carried the Skydemon Sect Elder and landed. He glanced at the two Skydemon Sect disciples and waved his hand. Two bolts of lightning flew out and struck the two Skydemon Sect disciples. Following that, Meng Chuan was once again cloaked in lightning as he headed back to Jiang State Capital.
