“You killed more than 100 demon monarchs in a day?” Liu Qiyue was excited when she heard that. She presided over Jiang State Capital and felt that each day passed by quickly. In such a short time, her husband had killed more than 100 demon monarchs?
Liu Qiyue said, “Ah Chuan, I heard that 60 percent of the demon monarchs killed by Black Sand Grotto-Heaven during the first year of the demons’ large-scale invasion was done by King White Treasure alone. Over time, the demon monarchs have become more cunning. It’s harder to hunt the demon monarchs aboveground. King White Treasure killed almost all the fourth Firmament demon monarchs in Black Sand Dynasty.” “Yes, I heard as well.” Meng Chuan nodded.
“It’s said that King White Treasure alone is equivalent to a sect. But in reality, King White Treasure’s battle accomplishments are more than what an entire sect can achieve,” said Liu Qiyue excitedly. “Ah Chuan, you can do it too. If you can kill about 100 demon monarchs every day, you’ll kill over 30,000 in a year! I heard that our Archean Mountain only killed about 18,000 demon monarchs last year.
“Also, we killed most of those 18,000 demon monarchs while being on the defensive. Demon monarchs have to attack first before we can kill them. How many people have died in the Great Zhou Dynasty by the time we’ve killed more than 10,000 demon monarchs? How many county cities have been abandoned or destroyed?” Liu Qiyue’s excitement grew more and more as she spoke. “Ah Chuan, you don’t need to wait for demon monarchs to attack our cities. You can directly search for their underground lairs. The price paid for killing demon monarchs is lower.”
“You’re right.” Meng Chuan nodded with a smile. “It’s no wonder Archean Mountain and Two World Island have thought of ways to invite King White Treasure to search for underground demon lairs.”
“Invite King White Treasure?” Liu Qiyue was surprised. “Our Archean Mountain invited him too?”
“Both Two World Island and Archean Mountain invited him. I’m guessing that the underground lairs in Black Sand Dynasty have mostly been swept clean after ten years of large-scale underground reconnaissance. There are very few demon monarchs left hiding underground in Black Sand Dynasty’s territory. Therefore, Black Sand Dynasty’s current situation is the best among the three dynasties.”
“King White Treasure is indeed very useful. However, Ah Chuan, you aren’t inferior to him,” said Liu Qiyue in anticipation, “You might even be better than him when you become a Regis Godfiend.”
“Let’s take it one step at a time.” Though he said that, Meng Chuan was filled with fighting spirit.
The first day’s results excited Meng Chuan and his wife. The next morning, under Liu Qiyue’s watch, Meng Chuan left Jiang State Capital and began his underground reconnaissance.
Some Godfiends found underground reconnaissance boring.
Everything looked uniform as Meng Chuan used his electromagnetic domain to probe his surroundings constantly as he flew underground at high speeds. Sometimes, even after two hours of hard work, nothing could be found. Thus, it was naturally boring.
Of course, some Godfiends were filled with battle intent, and Meng Chuan was one of those Godfiends!
When he was young, he had sworn to kill all the demons in the world. He had cultivated diligently since he was young because he was afraid that he wouldn’t have the strength to kill demon monarchs. This was because becoming a Godfiend was the minimum before one could kill demon monarchs. Back then, it was extremely difficult and unlikely for Meng Chuan to become a Godfiend. His perception was inferior to Xue Feng and Yan Chitong, and he didn’t have any powerful Godfiends guiding him.
Back then, his father, Meng Dajiang, had only achieved Force. He was only a Core Cloud Body Tempering Godfiend. He could only provide limited guidance to Meng Chuan. However, Meng Chuan was very smart. He was good at thinking and summarizing information. After reading Godfiend biographies and books, he summarized his predecessors’ successful experiences. Along the way, his training method—which he had devised after collating and summarizing all the information he had—and his Essence Soul cultivation talent allowed him to get first place in Archean Mountain’s entrance examination. After entering Archean Mountain successfully, he finally became a powerful Godfiend.
However, how many demon monarchs could he kill even if he became a powerful Godfiend?
My luck has given me this electromagnetic domain divine power. I can’t waste this fortune of mine. I have to kill as many demon monarchs as possible. Each demon monarch killed is equivalent to saving thousands of people.
Filled with battle intent, Meng Chuan patrolled the Great Zhou Dynasty’s dynasty. To his surprise, he discovered an underground demon monarch lair. There were many such surprises every day! These days were naturally very enjoyable. Meng Chuan also enjoyed being able to kill to his heart’s content.
Days passed.
On Meng Chuan’s worst day, he killed 27 demon monarchs. On his best day, he killed 350 demon monarchs!
He had once been in a situation where he could find nothing even after six hours of careful underground reconnaissance. There had also been an instance where he discovered four underground demon monarch lairs within 15 minutes, which had been very surprising to him.
Every day, Meng Chuan constantly swept through the dark underground alone. He would have this lonely job for decades or even centuries. Meng Chuan knew that there was another person in the human world who had a similar underground reconnaissance efficiency as his-King White Treasure.
According to his master’s instructions, Meng Chuan’s blanket search of the underground had to be kept a secret. Meng Chuan only shared the secret with his wife, but he was still full of fighting spirit.
At a depth of 15 kilometers in the East Seathe seabed—was a palace.
Inside the palace, a silver-robed woman sat on a throne and flipped through a dossier. She was the leader of all demon monarchs in the Great Zhou Dynasty-Greater Demon Monarch Frost. Ever since Greater Demon Monarch Blackrock died, Demon Sage Nine Abyss had naturally chosen another greater demon monarch to lead the demons in the Great Zhou Dynasty. “Is this information wrong?” The white-robed demoness looked down as her eyes turned cold.
The ordinary demon monarchs below were extremely reverent.
“The greater demon monarchs of every state in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s 23 states report their losses every month. We verify the information at least three times. There’s no mistake about it,” said a rat demon monarch respectfully in a careful manner.
“Over 3,900 demon monarchs have been killed this month?” The white-robed demoness frowned. “Only 1,300 demon monarchs died the previous month. It’s three times that of the previous month! How did these demon monarchs die? Did they initiate attacks on humans, or were they killed in their underground lairs?”
The demon monarchs below looked at each other. “We communicate with the various states’ greater demon monarchs via distress signals. Numbers can be barely transmitted,” said the rat demon monarch softly. “As for more detailed information… We don’t know either. If Your Majesty wishes to know, you can ask through the Skydemon Sect. All greater demon monarchs have methods of contacting the Skydemon Sect.”
The Skydemon Sect consisted of human traitors. They were best at hiding in the world’s various cities. Since the demons were forced into hiding, it was difficult for them to communicate with each other. The Skydemon Sect had become their relay center.
“Your Majesty.” Another snake demon monarch said carefully, “Hasn’t there been news that the humans’ King White Treasure has entered the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Great Yue Dynasty from time to time? Could it be that King White Treasure is responsible for our huge losses this month?”
The white-robed demoness frowned slightly. “Yes, King White Treasure is the most likely suspect. Red Fox Demon, personally contact the Skydemon Sect. I wish to know more about the demon monarchs’ high death rate in the Great Zhou Dynasty.”
“Yes.” replied a red fox demon with extreme respect.
Only a few people could leave this palace alone. All of them had their Essence Souls controlled and followed orders loyally.
Despite the demons’ investigations, Meng Chuan’s underground reconnaissance ability stayed a secret. Only Supremacy Qin Wu, Supremacy Luo Tang, Archean Mountain Lord, Liu Qiyue, and Meng Chuan knew about it. It wasn’t easy to figure out much.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
12th June. Though it was summer, the early morning remained rather cool.
Meng Chuan happily ate breakfast with his wife. Over the past three months, he had killed more than 8,300 demon monarchs. Every half a month, he would make a trip to Archean Mountain to deliver the demon monarch corpses and spoils of war. Every time Qin Wu saw a large number of demon monarch corpses, he was amazed and happy. He sighed inwardly. It was really worth it to let Meng Chuan enter Archean Eon Grotto-Heaven!
Oh? Meng Chuan noticed You’er and An’er appearing outside the hall.
Meng You and Meng An exchanged looks and made up their minds. They walked into the hall together.
Meng An took the initiative to speak. “Dad, Mom. We have something we need your help for.”
“Oh?” Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue looked at each other and smiled at their children.
“Tell me, what’s the matter?” As Meng Chuan spoke, he picked up a carrot with his chopsticks and mixed it with porridge. He enjoyed his meal.
