Chapter 176: Revealing Form

Qiyue, if I hadn’t drawn that portrait for you and strengthened my Essence Soul, I wouldn’t have been able to escape Blackwater Palace Lord’s domain. I would have died in his hands. You are truly my lucky star. After Meng Chuan escaped, he missed his wife—who was far away in North River Pa.s.s. I wonder how Qiyue is now. At least with Marquis Heavenstar’s protection, she’s very safe.

Marquis Heavenstar was extremely powerful. He had learned just how strong Marquis G.o.dfiends could be from the intelligence he received. After exchanging a few blows with Blackwater Palace Lord, he understood the difference in strength at a deeper level.

Even if the Power of Essence Soul is powerful, I would have been killed by Blackwater Palace Lord from the very beginning if I didn’t have the Diamond Body. It’s already tough for me to face Blackwater Palace Lord with my present strength. I won’t be the match of any fourth Firmament demon monarch or Marquis G.o.dfiend in a one-on-one fight.

In the three major cultivation systems, the Skydemon system was the weakest.

The weakest Marquis G.o.dfiend—the Marquis G.o.dfiend threshold—was as strong as the weakest fourth Firmament demon monarch! The two appeared to be equal, but Marquis G.o.dfiends had Darkstar domains. They naturally held the advantage in all aspects.

As for Skydemons? The weakest fourth Firmament Skydemon had strength that was close to the weakest Marquis G.o.dfiend. They were clearly much weaker! They didn’t have the Darkstar domain or divine powers. They were truly weak. In order for Skydemons to better infiltrate the human world and live longer, the demons focused on concealment and escaping means when creating the Skydemon system.

This was also the reason why it was the weakest among the three cultivation systems.

For instance, Blackwater Palace Lord had attained Greater Mastery of the Realm of Dao and possessed the strength of a Marquis G.o.dfiend.

According to the intelligence, out of the 11 fourth Firmament Skydemons, three were close to a Marquis G.o.dfiend’s strength. Five were at the Marquis G.o.dfiend threshold. Two had the strength of ordinary Marquis G.o.dfiends. Only one had the strength of a top Marquis G.o.dfiend.

Of course, I’m not his match alone. Meng Chuan understood this point. The weakest fourth Firmament Skydemon has the strength of a weak Marquis G.o.dfiend when using a forbidden spell. As for me, I can’t even deliver ten strikes with all my might. I won’t last long.

That’s why when I encounter a fourth Firmament existence, there’s only one thing for me to do in a one-on-one situation—escape! If I flee far enough, the enemy won’t reach me. As Meng Chuan reflected on the battle, he continued standing on the restaurant’s roof out in the open.

…

A kilometer away, Blackwater Palace Lord turned livid.

With the huge gap between them and with Meng Chuan’s terrifying speed, he had no intention of pursuing Meng Chuan any longer.

d.a.m.n it. I sneak attacked him, but he—a Great Solar G.o.dfiend—still managed to escape? Blackwater Palace Lord felt aggrieved. I actually failed to kill a Great Solar G.o.dfiend who had only left Archean Mountain for a few years. If I had known this would happen, I would’ve used a forbidden spell to kill him from the beginning.

Blackwater Palace Lord felt somewhat regretful. However, there wasn’t any room for regret. Back then, he had full confidence in sneak attacking a Great Solar G.o.dfiend as a fourth Firmament Skydemon. Immediately using a forbidden spell for such an ambush would be crazy.

For example, only after Meng Chuan had spent a lot of time dealing with Demon Monarch Cat did he finally choose to use the Power of Essence Soul. In the beginning, he was very confident. Would he immediately unleash a forbidden spell? How many times could he do this on the long path of cultivation if he were to use forbidden spells so casually? He would damage his body again and again, and his body would suffer from the side effects. It would limit his cultivation path, and even his lifespan would greatly shorten.

It was very reasonable for him not to use a forbidden spell.

This Meng Chuan sure is smug and arrogant. He’s actually standing there without leaving. Blackwater Palace Lord gritted his teeth in anger. There was nothing he could do.

…

Meng Chuan stood on the restaurant’s roof and could see the five-kilometer stretch that he had recently traversed.

Blackwater Palace Lord had pursued him for over five kilometers! Along the way, due to controlling the water—even the water from the river—the five-kilometer stretch was nothing but a mess. Fortunately, the tunnels the mortals hid in were rather deep underground. However, after they came out, all buildings within the five-kilometer stretch had to be rebuilt.

Senior Brothers Zhang Yunfeng and Yang Fang are only 1.5 kilometers away from me. They are almost here. Meng Chuan was delighted.

…

Zhang Yunfeng and Yang Fang had been trying their best to meet up with Meng Chuan. When Meng Chuan was being pursued, he fled in their direction. He also sought help through the token!

Now the two parties were very close—1.5 kilometers away from one another.

“Junior Brother Meng is requesting backup. We have to be faster.”

“With Junior Brother Meng’s speed, who can force him to seek help? A fourth Firmament Skydemon or demon monarch?”

“He’s only asking us for help. Clearly, he’s certain that the three of us can deal with the danger.”

If he knew that they couldn’t handle the threat, he would seek help from Archean Mountain directly! Many of those who had been invaded by the demons sought reinforcements from Archean Mountain. Such requests were also divided into levels. Archean Mountain sent more powerful G.o.dfiends according to the danger level. Otherwise, if the G.o.dfiend sent wasn’t strong enough, they would be going to their deaths.

Whoosh. Whoosh.

The duo traversed through the rain at full speed.

1.5 kilometers, 1 kilometer… The distance between them was constantly shortened.

…

Soon. Meng Chuan felt them getting closer. He had no confidence in dealing with Blackwater Palace Lord alone. Even if they couldn’t defeat him, they believed that they could stall him.

Blackwater Palace Lord is too powerful. If I allow him to stay in the city, more G.o.dfiends will die. We have to hold him back.

Blackwater Palace Lord looked at Meng Chuan—who was one kilometer away. He rejected several plans he came up with. Meng Chuan was definitely very cautious now. There was no way he could capture him.

Humph. Blackwater Palace Lord turned to leave.

Meng Chuan deliberately laughed when he saw this. “Blackwater Palace Lord, why are you giving up so quickly? I’m only a Great Solar G.o.dfiend. You are a fourth Firmament Skydemon. Or are Skydemons too weak?”

Blackwater Palace Lord glanced at Meng Chuan and indifferently said, “Meng Chuan, I hope you’ll still be this lucky next time.”

After saying that, the surrounding void slightly distorted as he vanished completely. At the instant he turned invisible, Meng Chuan saw Blackwater Palace Lord heading far away. Clearly, he was leaving.

“We’re here.” Zhang Yunfeng and Yang Fang rushed to Meng Chuan’s side.

“We have to hold him back. We can’t let him escape!” Meng Chuan grabbed each senior brother’s arm and immediately used his movement technique.

Boom!

By carrying the two of them, Meng Chuan was only at 40 percent of his normal speed. However, he was still rather fast among Marquis G.o.dfiends. In just two flashes, Meng Chuan and company had already arrived at where Blackwater Palace Lord had vanished. Although they couldn’t see where he was, Meng Chuan only needed to reach his original spot.

Meng Chuan had already sent a voice transmission.

The white-haired Zhang Yunfeng naturally unleashed his full strength.

A vast white domain covered a radius of one kilometer from where Zhang Yunfeng stood!

A bald, black-robed man appeared half a kilometer away from Zhang Yunfeng. He looked at the countless white threads enveloping his surroundings in surprise before spotting Meng Chuan, Zhang Yunfeng, and Yang Fang. Three Great Solar G.o.dfiends?
