Chapter 61 (2/2)
His bones and muscles worked in perfect harmony, and his Quintessential Essence circulation became smoother. When all these different factors were combined, his explosive strength increased drastically. His strength increased to a whole new level.
His speed. Commander Ox’s eyes widened. This human expert had the same terrifying speed back when he killed Commander Wyrm.
Whoosh.
Even though waves obstructed the lightning-clad figure, Meng Chuan was still unbelievably fast. Commander Ox barely had time to react. The trident in his hand had barely moved before a saber beam pierced through his forehead. It penetrated the ox’s head, and his mind instantly sunk into darkness.
Demon Commander Ox was dead. Commander Ox’s massive body fell to the ground, causing dust to rise.
“Commander Ox is also dead!”
“Run!”
“Quickly flee!” The demons—who had already been fleeing—wished they could grow more legs as they ran in different directions.
Meng Chuan’s gaze swept over them. With all of them scattering, he would only kill three to five demons. Chasing after them was not worth his time.
Swoosh.
He rushed into Blazing Sun Castle to check on Qiyue.
“Beautiful.”
“Amazing.”
“Senior Brother Meng, you are the Eldest Senior Brother of all eight Dao Academies!” one of the Blazing Sun Dao Academy disciples shouted excitedly.
“Young Master Meng is too powerful. He killed two demon commanders alone.” The soldiers and retired veterans were similarly impressed. They all talked as they watched Meng Chuan rush towards Blazing Sun Castle. They naturally recognized Young Master Meng—who was famous in Eastcalm Prefecture.
Suddenly, their faces changed. All of them looked into the distance.
Liu Qiyue—who had been leaning weakly against the wall—smiled as she watched Meng Chuan coming over. However, she revealed a look of horror when she saw something behind Meng Chuan.
“Senior Brother Meng, be careful!”
“Young Master Meng, be careful!”
“Ah Chuan, be careful!” Everybody exclaimed.
Meng Chuan hadn’t noticed it in the beginning, but he could sense auras within half a kilometer of his position. When the enemy closed in on him, he immediately sensed a terrifying aura. The aura was strong, far stronger than his grandaunt’s. It was also because his grandaunt was heavily injured and weak.
“Such a terrifying aura.” Meng Chuan immediately turned his head.
Whoosh.
Half of the sky behind him was covered by a black fog. When the terrifying existence was about half a kilometer away, the black fog covered a thousand feet, and it was less than a thousand feet away from him.
Whoosh.
The terrifying existence moved at astonishing speeds, far faster than Meng Chuan.
The black fog that blotted out half the sky appeared in front of Meng Chuan in a blink of an eye. Meng Chuan’s 100-feet perception also perceived countless tiny black snakes—that were the size of dust particles—in the black fog. The large number of corpses that lay along the route to Blazing Yang Dao Academy rapidly turned into pools of blood wherever the fog passed. At that moment, the black fog formed by countless black snakes inundated Meng Chuan.
“The person who killed two commanders is actually a mortal! What a surprise.” A hoarse and cold voice came from deep within the black fog.
