Chapter 65 (1/2)

“Dad, are you hiding the fact you are a Godfiend from Grandaunt?” asked Meng Chuan.

His grandaunt yearned for a Godfiend to appear in the clan.

“Chuan’er, I became a Godfiend for special reasons.” Meng Dajiang ultimately revealed some secrets to his son. “First of all, this matter has to be kept a secret. I can’t openly help the clan. Secondly, I’m too weak as a Godfiend. In fact, all Body Tempering Godfiends are very weak.”

“Very weak?” Meng Chuan was puzzled.

“Eight hundred years ago, when the demons first invaded,” Meng Dajiang said via voice transmission, “the human Godfiends, and demon monarchs fought numerous major battles. The Godfiends discovered that amongst the demons, some of them were extremely talented and had terrifyingly mighty bodies. Thus, the top-tier Godfiends began to ponder on how to strengthen their bodies. Thus, they established the body-tempering lineage.”

“As it was unprecedented and due to their lack of experience, the third firmament’s Great Solar realm is the theoretical limit for the Body Tempering Godfiend lineage,” said Meng Dajiang. “To reach this limit, you need a large number of natural treasures to nourish the body. It’s too extravagant and wasteful.”

“It’s too wasteful, and it doesn’t have a promising future. Due to the incomplete cultivation formulas, it also makes cultivation a lot more difficult,” said Meng Dajiang through voice transmission. “This is a failed path. Perhaps this path might be perfected thousands of years from now, but currently, it’s far from complete.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. It’s no wonder he had never heard of it before.

“Those that can enter Archean Mountain are all geniuses. Their first goal is to reach the Great Solar realm,” said Meng Dajiang. “Their first goal is already the Body Tempering Godfiend lineage’s theoretical limit, so you can tell how weak we are. For example, King Calm Sea is a famous Godfiend. He could probably kill a Great Solar Godfiend with a single glance. Becoming an expert like King Calm Sea is the goal of every Godfiend from Archean Mountain. It’s also something you should pursue.”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded.

King Calm Sea… He had been guarding Calm Sea Pass all this time! Previously, his grandaunt was also under his command. Even his grandaunt had said that King Calm Sea’s strength was in no way inferior to the famous Godfiend of old, Deng Feng. Now, his father was claiming that he could kill a Great Solar realm Godfiend with just a glance?

“Dad, can the Godfiends at Jadesun Palace obtain victory?” Meng Chuan asked.

“I don’t know.” Meng Dajiang shook his head. “If Jadesun Palace wins, then it spells victory for Eastcalm Prefecture. If they lose, Eastcalm Prefecture will be reduced to a scorched land. Your Uncle Liu and I… can’t stop the scourge at all.”

“Let’s hope they win.” Meng Chuan wouldn’t believe they’d be defeated.

Meng Dajiang looked at his son. There was something he hadn’t said. Since the demons had sent Demon Monarch Poison Pool to sweep the area, it meant that the demons definitely had the upper hand.

…

That was indeed the case.

Jadesun Palace.

The black-furred ape raised his pole and transformed into a black beam, attacking Fairy Meng.

Behind Fairy Meng was the extremely weak Yun Wanhai—whose bones were broken and fractured. He no longer had any combat strength left.

“Scram!” Fairy Meng shouted. Immediately, illusory palms struck at the black-furred ape, but they were all shattered by its pole.

Clang!

Fairy Meng’s walking stick collided with the pole. The force of the strike that split apart her many illusory palms had greatly reduced. When it faced Fairy Meng’s walking stick again, the black-furred ape was sent tumbling backward.

Cough. Fairy Meng’s face flushed as blood trickled down the corner of her mouth.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The raging Jadesun Palace Lord punched out dozens of times in a frenzy. Every punch was dazzling to the eye. Finally, he managed to push the towering Demon Monarch Domineering Roar and thorny Demon Monarch Whitesink back. He immediately retreated to Fairy Meng.

“Fairy, how is it?” Jadesun Palace Lord was somewhat worried. “That ape is too fast. I wasn’t able to stop him.”

Among the demon monarchs, Domineering Roar had the greatest strength while Ape had the highest agility and speed; Ape was as fast as Meng Chuan. A true battle depended on a multitude of factors. Third Firmament Demon Monarch Whitesink was clearly the strongest. He was the only one who could hold back Jadesun Palace Lord head-on.

“I can still withstand about three more strikes,” said Fairy Meng via voice transmission. “However, after those three strikes. I’ll be done.”

“If you collapse, I won’t be able to stop them either,” Jadesun Palace Lord said bitterly.

With Fairy Meng’s domain helping him, he was like a tiger with wings, and his strength was boosted slightly. The domain also suppressed their opponents, weakening them slightly. This was the only reason why he had been able to endure his opponents’ attacks.

If not for Fairy Meng, he could only run for his life. Escape might not even be possible!

“Demon Monarch Ape, follow this method! We will win once Fairy Meng is killed,” ordered Whitesink through voice transmission. “Go.”

“Haha, kill.” Domineering Roar was extremely valiant.

The three demon monarchs joined forces to attack again.

Jadesun Palace Lord had no choice but to defend. In truth, although Demon Monarch Poison was gone, he was the weakest out of the four demon monarchs. The poisonous fog was completely suppressed by the domain. As for close combat? Poison Pool’s close combat ability was considered average. Compared to the fast Demon Monarch Ape and the extremely powerful Demon Monarch Domineering Roar, he was too inferior.

Both sides clashed again. Whitesink and Domineering Roar held back Jadesun Palace Lord while Ape moved to attack Fairy Meng once again.
