Chapter 321 Reading Manuals

“It’s a little boring.” Yan Jin walked by his side and said, “Previously, we were in Godfiend patrol teams and often had the chance to fight demon monarchs. Now that the prefecture and county cities have been abandoned, Great Solar Godfiends like us won’t be of much use.”

Meng Chuan smiled and said, “Some Great Solar Godfiends are still needed down the mountain.”

“They are only allowed to leave the mountain because they are older,” said Yan Jin. “Some of our senior brothers and sisters are in charge of Earth Net’s investigations. Some are in charge of defending large cities.”

“You’re still young, and you cultivate a transcendent-grade Godfiend body. Archean Mountain still has great hopes for you,” said Meng Chuan.

Yan Jin walked to the hall and sat down. “Sit.” He then poured a cup of alcohol for Meng Chuan and said, “One has the highest chance of becoming a Marquis Godfiend before the age of 60. After the age of 60, one’s probability of becoming a Marquis Godfiend will gradually decrease. I’m the same age as you. I only have eight years left before I’m 60. I don’t have any confidence in becoming a Marquis Godfiend in eight years.”

“Despite being stuck at a bottleneck, breakthroughs can happen at any time.” Meng Chuan flipped his hand and took out a treasure box.

“Oh?” Yan Jin said in surprise, “You aren’t using a storage bag?” “Don’t let others know about it,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “It’s a small pocket grotto-heaven that I carry with me. There aren’t many people who know about it.”

Yan Chitong and Xue Feng knew. Meng Chuan’s had greater trust in Yan Jin than in most others.

“A small pocket grotto-heaven?” Yan Jin exclaimed.

“Here.” Meng Chuan handed the treasure box to Yan Jin. “This is a unique treasure I obtained by chance. It’s useful for you, so I’m giving it to you.”

“For me?” Yan Jin smiled. They were good friends that had experienced life-and-death battles together when they were young. They cultivated together in Archean City and entered Archean Mountain together. Since they had a good relationship, it was normal for them to give each other gifts.

Yan Jin opened the wooden box curiously and saw an ice lotus flower inside. Flames flickered on the ice lotus flower’s pistils. Ice and fire… were perfectly combined within this lotus flower.

“This is…” Yan Jin’s heart skipped a beat. He cultivated the Azure Lotus Divine Body and dual-wielded swords. He also cultivated the Black Metal Sutra, Icefire Seven Absolutes. He had a deep understanding of ice and fire. Upon seeing the ice lotus flower that had ice and fire coexisting, he was immediately triggered. Soon, he reacted and looked at Meng Chuan. “This is too precious.” “It’s nothing much,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “For example, my small pocket grotto-heaven is ten times more expensive than this! As for the ice lotus flower… it’s just one of my many treasures. This ice lotus flower isn’t anything to me. Don’t reject me if you call me brother. In the future, kill more demon monarchs when you become a Marquis Godfiend. We humans lack powerful Godfiends in this war.”

Yan Jin looked at Meng Chuan and nodded. “Alright.”

“That’s the way,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “By the way, I still have to thank you for guiding You’er.”

“Meng You is quite talented.” Yan Jin nodded. “At the very least, she’s more talented than I was back then.”

“Yan Jin, you’re the same age as me. My children are already on Archean Mountain and are about to become Godfiends, but you’re still single,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “Does any woman catch your fancy? When do you plan on getting married?” “It’s good to be alone,” said Yan Jin calmly. “I like the feeling of being alone. I don’t like having too many people. It’s too noisy!” The two drank and ate, chatting until midnight before Meng Chuan returned.

Late at night, Yan Jin stood at the entrance of the cave abode and watched Meng Chuan leave amidst the snow.

“He’s gone again.” Yan Jin closed the door to his cave abode and returned to his chamber. He took out the wooden box from his storage bag and looked at the ice lotus flower in the wooden box. As Yan Jin stared at the ice lotus flower, he whispered, “Meng Chuan, thank you.”

When Meng Chuan returned to his cave abode, he saw Xue Feng hiding in the darkness near the entrance.

Xue Feng walked out of the darkness. “He accepted it?” Xue Feng looked at Meng Chuan.

“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded.
