  After 800 years…

  The three large sects had been united for a long time as they defended against their common enemy. The human Godfiends supported each other, and there was no way to learn evil formulas. In the past 800 years, the Godfiends were the Godfiends with the best reputations in history. Generations of Godfiends fought for the human race.

  Because of this fight for humanity and the sacrifices they made, this spirit was passed down generation after generation. It had already merged with every newly-born Godfiend’s bones.

  “Humanity’s evil cultivation techniques are all sealed. It’s almost impossible for the outside world to have them,” said Li Guan.

  “Even if there’s a small number of the techniques circulating, it’s impossible for one to absorb the lives of one million people at once. Even a Guardian Divine Beast couldn’t catch up to the culprit,” said Qin Wu.

  “What do you need me to do?” asked Meng Chuan.

  “Your speed is unparalleled in the world.” Li Guan looked at Meng Chuan. “As long as you can discover the murderer, you can track him and prevent him from escaping perfectly.” Meng Chuan nodded. With his capabilities, no expert in the world—including Creation Supremacies—could escape his pursuit.

  “You can travel about 250 kilometers in three seconds.” Li Guan looked at Meng Chuan. “If you use that special temporal divine power, your speed will be ten times faster.”

  Although Meng Chuan kept the secrets of Flowing Sand a secret, he still told the three Supremacies about it. “I can only maintain Flowing Sand for about 15 seconds. If I use it to the limit, it will burden my Essence Soul greatly,” said Meng Chuan.

  “That mysterious murderer takes about nine seconds to devour one million people’s lives. After committing that large-scale massacre, that culprit quickly flees,” said Li Guan. “Therefore, you have to arrive within nine seconds. In the entire human world, only you – Meng Chuan-have a chance of doing so.”

  “We need you to capture the murderer,” said Qin Wu.

  Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

  If he spared no expense and used the Bloodblade Disc, he could travel about 800 kilometers in a second while under Flowing Sand. This was thanks to his Infinite Saber Ar reaching the peak of the Dharma Domain realm. In just three seconds, he could travel about 2,500 kilometers.

  “The mysterious murderer only attacked twice so far. There was about a month’s gap between each attack,” said Qin Wu. “We believe that if he cultivates a special technique, he will take action soon.”

  “Meng Chuan, all you need to do is stay in a large city that is in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s center for the time being. Once he attacks any city in the Great Zhou Dynasty, with your speed, you can arrive there in nine seconds,” said Luo Tang. “Alright.” Meng Chuan nodded. “I’ll temporarily stay in Southwater City.”

  Great Zhou Dynasty, Southwater City.

  The city furthest away from Southwater City was Qiyu City-which was in the northwest of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Most cities in the Great Zhou Dynasty were within 6,000 kilometers of Southwater City.

  Who is it? Meng Chuan looked at the dossier in his hand and frowned slightly. Is it a demon or a human Godfiend?

  His time was precious. However, Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang still requested Meng Chuan to stay in the human world temporarily so that he could resolve the threat.

  Each attack caused over a million people to die. It was enough to make humanity panic. The Supremacies were extremely anxious.

  I’ll just wait. Meng Chuan was also anxious. However, he knew that he would only be able to capture the culprit when the other party attacked.

  on

  Once the enemy attacked, it also meant that one million people would die. This made Meng Chuan’s killing intent intensify.

  Days passed.

  In the blink of an eye, Meng Chuan had returned to the human world for more than half a month.

  At night, high in the sky of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s hinterland, Rain Peace City.

  Whoosh.

  The void distorted slightly as a figureshrouded in dark-red fog-appeared in the sky. He looked down at the massive city.

  “There are more than ten million fresh lives here,” muttered the dark-red fog figure softly before descending. Although Godfiends guarded the prosperous Rain Peace City, nobody sensed the arrival of this terrifying existence.

  Chapter 435 - Mysterious Murderer

  The dark-red figure landed on a lake in the city. His blood-red eyes looked around. “Delicacies everywhere.”

  SuddenlyWith him at the center, a dark-red fog silently descended within a 15-kilometer radius. Most of the people in the area were fast asleep. Of course, some people were losing themselves in revelry in the brothels. Soldiers were also patrolling the streets as Dao Academy disciples diligently cultivated. However, all of them were suddenly horrified. Their skin, flesh, and blood began to disintegrate into lifeblood, causing the dark-red color in the domain to intensify.

  Those who were awake could see their bodies – in horror-disintegrate. As for the ones sleeping soundly, their entire body was filled with pain and anguish. Following that, they lost all sensation forever.

  The murderer chose the southeastern corner of Rain Peace City. The periphery was filled with the most ordinary commoners, but it had a dense population. Over one million people’s bodies disintegrated into lifeblood. The anger and resentment they felt when they died also produced sinful grievances—which were also devoured by the dark-red figure.

  Blood, sin, and resentment transformed into endless dark-red waves that gathered at the center of the domain.

  Huh? The sudden appearance of the lifeblood domain alarmed the Godfiends guarding Rain Peace City.

  “That mysterious murderer came to my Rain Peace City?” In an ordinary courtyard, King Luyue’s expression changed.

  Due to the change in the war situation, the threat of the demons was greatly lessened. Therefore, many ancient Regis Godfiends had returned to their slumbers. There were fewer Regis Godfiends guarding cities in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but King Luyue was the one guarding this city. After the two mysterious attacks, Archean Mountain naturally sent dossiers regarding the attacks to the Godfiends guarding the various cities. The Godfiends guarding the cities were on high alert.

  King Luyue immediately requested help through the token.

  I want to see who this mysterious murderer is. I can sense that the lifeblood domain is 25 kilometers away from me. With just my speed alone, I won’t be able to rush there in nine seconds. However, my poisonous bugs will. King Luyue instantly transformed into a beam of light and rushed over. He was an ordinary Regis Godfiend; he was much slower than King True Martial and company. With a wave of his sleeve, a black shadow flew out.

  This black shadow was formed from over 70 poisonous bugs. These poisonous bugs were much faster than him. The fastest among them traveled nearly 10 kilometers in a second as they flew towards the lifeblood domain.

  In Southwater City, the night was still. Meng Chuan sat cross-legged in the courtyard. Bloodblades flew around him as he practiced his moves. With his Seamless domain distorting lightconcealing him—the surrounding people didn’t discover anything out of the ordinary

  Huh? Meng Chuan suddenly opened his eyes. With a flip of his hand, he took out a token. A red blip-over Rain Peace City’s location-had lit up; the sanguine light was blinding.

  Rain Peace City? Meng Chuan’s eyes flashed coldly.

  After half a month, the murderer had finally appeared!

  Boom!

  The Bloodblades rapidly flew back into the Bloodblade Disc as Meng Chuan tore through the air.

  He stepped on the Bloodblade Disc and used his Infinite movement technique. Meng Chuan flew at his maximum speed, causing silver patterns to surface on his forehead. Bolts of silver lightning flashed around his head as his eyes flickered with silver lightning. The flow of time beyond Meng Chuan’s body was still normal, but Meng Chuan’s flow of
time had changed.

  Flowing Sand!

  Boom!

  The surrounding scenery was a complete blur. Even weak Godfiends would feel fear at such speed because they couldn’t see their surroundings clearly. In a second, he traversed 800 kilometers. This was an inconceivable speed. Under normal circumstances, only Imperial Lords could surpass this speed easily. Imperial Lords could teleport 500 kilometers in a single instant. They could teleport two or three times in a second, which meant that they could travel 1000 to 1500 kilometers. This was the slowest speed among Imperial Lords. If one included an Imperial Lord’s control over time and the powerful treasures they possessed, their speed would be much faster.

  However, Meng Chuan’s speed allowed him to leave many Creation Supremacies in the dust.

  Swish! Swish! Swish!

  The surroundings blurred as Meng Chuan advanced at high speeds. The distance between Southwater City and Rain Peace City was over 3,000 kilometers. In slightly more than three seconds, Meng Chuan arrived.

  I’m here.

  When Meng Chuan arrived in the sky above Rain Peace City, he immediately saw the disaster that had struck Rain Peace City’s eastern region. The rich lifeblood that spanned dozens of kilometers was churning, and it was filled with immense amounts of resentment. Poisonous bugs attacked the lifeblood domain repeatedly. These poisonous bugs were rather powerful as they advanced in the lifeblood domain. However, with the lifeblood domain blocking them, the poisonous bugs’ flying speed slowed down.

  It’s King Luyue. Meng Chuan also saw King Luyue. King Luyue was only an ordinary Regis Godfiend. He could travel about five kilometers in three seconds. He had yet to reach the lifeblood domain.

  The moment Meng Chuan arrived, the vertical eye at his glabella opened, causing his electromagnetic domain to envelop the area below.

  Electromagnetic waves swept across the area and locked onto the figure in the middle of the domain. The figure had a protective barrier, making it difficult to ‘identify’ him.

  Huh? The figure enveloped by the dark-red fog was alarmed. Not good.

  I’ve found you. Meng Chuan stared into the distance. Bloodblades flew out from the Bloodblade Disc beneath his feet and encircled the figure.

  It’s King Eastcalm. King Luyue—who was rushing over-also noticed Meng Chuan. He couldn’t help but reveal a look of delight. King Eastcalm is extremely fast. With him around, the murderer won’t be able to escape.

  Bloodblades attacked the figure. Meng Chuan was filled with killing intent. However, Archean Mountain had instructed him to do his best to capture the perpetrator alive! Therefore, he controlled the Bloodblades to sever the culprit’s limbs and seal their strength.

  Boom!

  The surging lifeblood put up a defense, but it was unable to block the Bloodblades.

  Although they hadn’t been accelerated via Meng Chuan’s electromagnetic domain, the Tribulation treasure could unleash terrifying strength since he had reached the peak of the Dharma Domain realm.

  With a boom, the lifeblood domain was easily torn apart. The mysterious murderer also tried his best to block the attack as a dazzling blood-colored sword beam lit up.

  Boom!

  The sword beam was profound, and the lifeblood fled in a sorry state.

  What? Meng Chuan’s expression changed.

  Although the opponent’s means were very evil, Meng Chuan was very familiar with the sword technique! He had once gone on an expedition in the World Gap with the other party. He had even personally seen the other party fight Blood Shura with all his might. Although his sword technique was much more brilliant than before, Meng Chuan could still tell that the mysterious sword technique—which had blocked the Bloodblade—was Spring Autumn Tribulation.

  Strictly speaking, this sword beam was closer to perfection than the Spring Autumn Tribulation he had seen before. However, it was obvious that they shared the same origins. Meng Chuan didn’t believe that another expert in the world could use this move.

  “King Eastcalm, don’t let him escape.” King Luyue chased after him anxiously.

  The blood-colored figure flashed through the fluctuating void and was now several kilometers away. It rapidly fled with several flashes.

  “He won’t be able to escape.” Meng Chuan’s voice echoed in King Luyue’s ears. With a flash, his figure approached the mysterious blood-colored figure.

  Meng Chuan stared at the blood-colored figure in front of him. Bloodblades floated around him.

  “King Calm Sea, is that you?” asked Meng Chuan in a low voice.

  “Hehehehe… As expected of the fastest person in the world.” The blood-colored figure chuckled strangely.

  Chapter 436 - The Truth

  The blood-colored figure floated in midair, not in a hurry to escape. This was because he knew very well that it was impossible to escape the fastest person in the world—Meng Chuan.

  “Meng Chuan, you need at least a few moves to capture me,” said the blood-colored figure with a strange smile. “As long as I’m willing, I can instantly kill many mortals below. Thus, you only have two choices.

  “One, let me go, I will immediately flee. I won’t harm a mortal again. Two, you fight me, but I’ll have these mortals die with me.” The blood-colored figure looked at Meng Chuan. “Choose carefully. I know that the famous Meng Chuan isn’t a heartless person.”

  Meng Chuan looked at the blood-colored figure smiling strangely. He was secretly puzzled. I’m 90% confident that this mysterious murderer is King Calm Sea. But since when did King Calm Sea become so garrulous? Furthermore, when was he ever so

  stupid?

  Buzz.

  The Astral Wave swept forward, instantly affecting the blood-colored figure. Meng Chuan knew that King Calm Sea was an extraordinary Regis Godfiend. His willpower was probably just as extraordinary as his technique realm. Even if he had a fourth-level Essence Soul, it was likely that he could barely remain lucid when affected by an Astral Wave. Oh? The blood-colored figure couldn’t help but tremble when the Astral Wave struck it. Following that, it plummeted downwards.

  What? He has lost consciousness? Meng Chuan was still prepared to use his Bloodblades to defeat his opponent. Seeing his opponent fall weakly, he was somewhat puzzled. His Quintessential Essence quickly flew out and seeped into his opponent’s body. His opponent didn’t resist at all, allowing Meng Chuan to seal all his strength.

  During the sealing process, Meng Chuan also discovered the Quintessential Essence in the mysterious person’s body. He also discovered the Essence Soul that had lost consciousness.

  From the Quintessential Essence aura and Essence Soul aura, he was undoubtedly King Calm Sea.

  Meng Chuan looked at the mysterious murderer suspended in front of him. This mysterious murderer was taller than King Calm Sea, and his face was covered with dark-red runes. He looked ugly and evil.

  His appearance has completely changed, but his Quintessential Essence aura and Essence Soul aura are King Calm Sea’s. Furthermore, his willpower is rather lacking. I’ll bring him back to Archean Mountain and inform Master and the others of the situation. We’ll discuss how to deal with him.

  King Calm Sea was extremely famous in the human world. He was an Archean Mountain Regis Godfiend that would very likely become a Creation Supremacy. He had presided over Calm Sea Pass for many years, killing many demons and protecting humanity.

  Many Godfiends admired King Calm Sea. Many demons feared him.

  If this matter was made public, the impact on morale would be terrible! More importantly, Meng Chuan had many questions on his mind. He had a nagging feeling that the blood-colored figure wasn’t actually King Calm Sea. After all, the blood-colored figure’s manner of speaking was completely different from King Calm Sea’s. King Luyue flew over from afar and sent a voice transmission. “King Eastcalm.”

  “I’ve already captured this murderer alive,” said Meng Chuan. “King Luyue, please handle the aftermath. I’ll immediately send this murderer to Archean
Mountain.”

  “Alright, we definitely can’t spare the murderer easily,” said King Luyue immediately. His eyes were filled with anger. The mysterious murderer had killed more than a million people in Rain Peace City. How could he not be angry? “Don’t worry,” said Meng Chuan.

  Swoosh.

  Meng Chuan quickly rushed to Archean Mountain with the mysterious murderer in tow.

  Archean Mountain.

  Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were already waiting.

  “Meng Chuan sent a signal through the token, indicating that he has successfully resolved the threat,” said Luo Tang worriedly. “I wonder if he captured the murderer alive or killed the murderer.”

  “I hope he captured him alive.” Qin Wu frowned. “I really want to see who the murderer is. Is he a human or a demon?”

  Li Guan looked up. “He’s here.”

  Meng Chuan landed in Grotto-Heaven Pavilion with the mysterious murderer and threw the person in his grasp at the ground. The tall, ugly man-with dark-red runes on his facelooked around uneasily.

  “He’s the murderer?” Qin Wu was puzzled.

  “Oh?” Li Guan’s expression changed. “I checked its Quintessential Essence aura and Essence Soul aura. It’s King Calm Sea?”

  Meng Chuan nodded and said, “He attacked with a sword technique just now. It was Spring Autumn Tribulation. Back when King Calm Sea and I were in the World Gap, I saw King Calm Sea use this move. This mysterious killer’s use of the move is even more perfect than what I had seen before.”

  “King Calm Sea?” Luo Tang was surprised. “Xue Ting?” Qin Wu found it unbelievable. “Xue Ting is the murderer. This is impossible.” King Calm Sea was also Qin Wu’s disciple. He was also one of his most outstanding disciples.
