From a logical point of view, he should have fled when he was no match for the enemy Keeping a useful Godfiend alive would be better in the long term. However, Meng Chuan still appreciated Wen Fang.
“Dean.”
“Dean Wen.” More than ten bold people ran over from afar.
Meng Chuan said in surprise, “Dean?”
“I built a Dao Academy in Li Water Mountain Range and taught youths how to cultivate,” explained Wen Fang. He also waved at the crowd, but none of them approached. They were happy to see that Dean Wen had completely recovered. In Li Water Mountain Range, Dean Wen had quite the status.
“With your strength, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to build a Dao Academy in a city, right?” asked Meng Chuan.
“There are many experts in the cities. They don’t need me, but this place needs me.” Wen Fang smiled.
“Do you have a family clan or any family?” asked Meng Chuan.
It was rare for a Godfiend to be willing to root himself in the mountains for 100,000 mortals.
Wen Fang laughed. “My wife and children are all in the imperial capital. My clansmen are also in the imperial capital. They are living well and don’t have to worry. The only thing I regret… is my inability to accompany my wife and children properly. They also know that their lives are much better than countless mortals. They also understand what I’m doing.
“In this era, more demon monarchs are entering our human world. Isn’t it said that one million demon monarchs would destroy the human race? I’m a Godfiend, but I’m not of much use in the grand scheme. If I can protect an area, I’ll protect it,” said Wen Fang.
Meng Chuan glanced at the people in the valley and mountains. There were too many people living in this mountain range.
“You have done them a great favor,” said Meng Chuan.
“I only hope to have a clear conscience when doing things,” said Wen Fang with a smile. “I can’t compare to you. You have contributed to the human race much more, Marquis Eastcalm.”
“Haha, I’m also doing all I can. By the way, this item left behind by the demon monarch might be of some use to you and the mortals in Li Water Mountain Range. I’ll leave it with
you.”
With that said, Meng Chuan vanished in a second.
The young man, Wen Fang, raised his head. Then, he collected the demon monarch’s corpse without any qualms.
Night. A rippling sea that ebbed softly.
Above the seawater was a small World Entrance that was about 1,000 feet long. Over the years, more small and medium-sized World Entrances had appeared. This small World Entrance had formed just eight years ago. Humans had never sent Godfiends here to guard it. If a large number of Godfiends were sent to guard various World Entrances, most would’ve died. Back then, humans had no other choice but to stop guarding many World Entrances.
Whoosh.
la
A rather handsome yellow-robed man flew out from the small World Entrance. An invisible fluctuation enveloped him. Even a Regis Godfiend would find it difficult to notice him. He smiled as he looked around and breathed in the world’s air. “Human world? I’ve finally arrived in this human world. I’ll find a place to rise to the fourth Firmament first. Then, I’ll meet Nine Abyss and North Sense.” The yellow-robed man took a step forward and entered the dark, boundless sea.
Four hours later. Demon Sage Nine Abyss’s pocket grotto-heaven.
“Brother Yellow Oscillate!” Demon Sage Nine Abyss and the black-robed man welcomed him. “Nine Abyss, I’m here to seek refuge with you,” said the yellow-robed man with a smile. His aura was much stronger than when he first entered the human world, having reached the fourth Firmament.
Demon Sage Nine Abyss smiled and said, “We are now at a disadvantage in the human world. Our top-level forces are too weak here. You have boosted our confidence since you’ve entered the human world.”
“There’s no need to worry. The World Gap has already appeared and is in the process of forming,” said the yellow-robed man with a smile. “The final outcome has been fixed. The longer this war drags on, the more stable the World Gap will be. The greater the connection between the two worlds, the more World Entrances there will be. Our Demon Realm’s advantage will only grow.
“Many demon sages know how to take advantage of the situation. Before the World Gap appeared, only the two of you entered the human world via possession. Now that the World Gap has appeared, more demon sages will definitely be willing to enter the human world,” said the yellow-robed man. “According to what I know, several demon sages are searching for suitable bodies. I was just slightly faster.”
Nine Abyss Demon Sage and the black-robed figure nodded slightly. They also understood the situation.
“However, it’s very difficult for me to recover to the level of a demon sage,” continued the yellow-robed man. “It will probably take me several years to do so. It’ll be pretty good if I can succeed in returning to my peak strength after spending a century here.”
“Take your time. There’s no hurry,” replied Demon Sage Nine Abyss.
Demon Sage North Sense was famous for his various mystic techniques. He was not very good at fighting head-on. Demon Sage Yellow Oscillate was extremely strong at head-on battles. His technique realm was extremely high. Even with his fourth Firmament demon monarch body, he could unleash the combat strength of a fifth Firmament demon monarch. He would be invincible beneath the Creation realm if he recovered to the fifth Firmament. If he recovered his peak strength, he would be in no way inferior to Demon Sage Nine Abyss.
“After possessing and switching bodies, one has to recover their strength slowly. Although one’s strength decreases greatly, there’s a benefit,” said the yellow-robed man with a smile. His eyes were burning with passion. “We can pay a visit to the World Gap.”
The black-robed figure calmly said, “Only fifth Firmament demon monarchs and below can enter the World Gap. We can indeed enter the World Gap after possessing a new body, but both of us are only at the fourth Firmament right now. If we enter and encounter Regis Godfiends, we will definitely die.”
“I’ll enter after I recover to the fifth Firmament,” said the yellow-robed man.
“The Godfiend cultivation system created by Ancestral Master Archean Eon is stronger than our demon monarch cultivation system,” said the black-robed figure. “Against the top Regis Godfiends, even if you and I recover to the fifth Firmament, we might not be their match.”
“Are you referring to King True Martial, King Clear Jade, King Transcendence, and the others?” asked the yellow-robed man.
King True Martial and King Clear Jade were from Archean Mountain. King Clear Jade was one of the ancient Godfiends that had awoken. The demons still didn’t know that Archean Mountain had two ancient Regis Godfiends that were in no way weaker to King True Martial. One was Peng Mu, and the other was Yun Jianhai. They were the two strongest Regis Godfiends from 1,000 years ago. The black-robed figure nodded and said, “It’s said that these few people have the strength of a newly-advanced Creation realm expert. The Godfiend cultivation system is also stronger than our demon monarch cultivation system. Even if we were to recover to the fifth Firmament, we probably wouldn’t be able to defeat them.”
“We have greater experience than them and high technique realms. It’s not difficult for us to survive. We might even be able to kill them, considering our experience with a World Gap’s environment.” The yellow-robed man smiled.
The black-robed figure nodded slightly. “We can give it a try, but we have to wait until we recover to the fifth Firmament.”
“The two of you can focus on cultivating here at my place.” Demon Sage Nine Abyss smiled.
Huh? Deep underground, Meng Chuan-who was flying at high speeds—suddenly stopped. He took out a token and looked at it with a frown. Archean Mountain is summoning me? Master knows that I’m carrying out underground reconnaissance every day. If there’s nothing important, he won’t summon me.
Swoosh.
He immediately flew to the surface and soared above the clouds before rushing towards Archean Mountain.
After arriving at Archean Mountain, Meng Chuan took a detour to visit his children. His son, Meng An, was practicing his spear art alone in Bright Scenic Peak’s training grounds, but he didn’t see his daughter.
It’s been two years since An’er came to Archean Mountain. It seems like he’s still far from attaining a Samsara Divine Body. Meng Chuan watched his son cultivate from midair. He couldn’t help but smile. He knew the difficulty of cultivating the Samsara Divine Body. It was normal for An’er not to master it in two years.
Whoosh.
Following that, Meng Chuan flew to Grotto-Heaven Pavilion. There, he saw a tall, cold-looking man sitting cross-legged; he was as motionless as a mountain.
King Calm Sea. Meng Chuan immediately recognized him as Yan Jin and Xue Feng’s father. His grandaunt had worked under King Calm Sea for many years.
When Meng Chuan entered, King Calm Sea didn’t even turn his head to look at him. He continued sitting there with his eyes closed, motionless, cold, and proud.
“Marquis Eastcalm, please rest here. Other Regis and Marquis Godfiends will be arriving,” instructed the old steward.
“Thanks.” Meng Chuan sat down on a mat and waited silently.
Moments later, a black-robed youth walked into Grotto-Heaven Pavilion. It was none other than the King Calm Sea’s fifth son, Xue Feng. He wore a warm smile. When he entered and saw his father, King Calm Sea, his expression slightly changed before it turned serious.
Xue Feng is here too. Meng Chuan nodded slightly at Xue Feng. Xue Feng smiled and nodded before sitting down.
