  The Godfiends discussed their speculations.

  Suddenly, they realized that only one of the Godfiends present hadn’t uttered a single word during their discussion.

  Meng Chuan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged. The 18 Bloodblades circled him as they flew.

  Hum.

  The 18 Bloodblades—which had been flying around Meng Chuan-suddenly darted forward and disappeared into the void. “This is?” King True Martial’s expression changed as he looked at Meng Chuan in shock. Meng Chuan opened his eyes and excitedly sensed the 18 Bloodblades in the void.

  I’ve succeeded. I’ve succeeded. Meng Chuan revealed an excited expression. After his ultimate technique reached the Grotto-Heaven realm, he verified his newfound prowess with the Bloodblades.

  “Junior Brother Meng?” King True Martial looked at Meng Chuan, his eyes glowing in excitement. “Your weapon has entered the extremely deep void. Although I can sense it, I can’t go that deep myself. Have you broken through?”

  “What?” King Transcendence and the Regis Godfiends hiding in the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron looked at Meng Chuan in shock.

  What heights had King True Martial reached in the void lineage?

  Meng Chuan’s weapon had infiltrated a void layer that even King True Martial couldn’t reach? “I’ve finally made a breakthrough after all these years in the World Gap,” said Meng Chuan without hiding anything. He was filled with delight. “I’ve finally reached the Grotto-Heaven realm for the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique I created.”

  “You created your own lightning lineage ultimate technique, and it has reached the Grotto-Heaven realm?” The other Godfiends exchanged looks.

  All lightning lineage ultimate techniques shared one characteristic-speed.

  For example, the World Roving Dragon Saber was known as the number one movement technique of humanity. It was famous for its unpredictable life-preservation techniques, and it granted one terrifying speed. From the looks of it, King Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, was even more terrifying when it came to speed and movement techniques!

  “Ignoring everything else, my Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique is quite adept at void travel,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.

  The Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique was superior to the World Roving Dragon Saber.

  Strictly speaking… Meng Chuan had created the best movement technique for humanity today!

  He had created the strongest movement technique in human history at the age of 75. Even with the World Gap’s cultivation opportunities, his talent was still dazzling.

  “Void travel?” King True Martial looked at Meng Chuan as his eyes lit up. “Junior Brother Meng, are you confident in cracking the array formation?”

  “Cracking the array formation?” The other Godfiends were stunned.

  Why did he suddenly mention that? “I need to consolidate my foundation first. I’ll crack the array formation in ten minutes,” said Meng Chuan.

  “King Eastcalm, do you really have the confidence to crack the array formation?” King Molten, King Transcendence, King Thousand Wood, and the others all revealed looks of disbelief. Could he crack the Black River Array Formation that gave them headaches?

  “I’m not familiar with array formations,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “I’ll try to crack it alone later. I probably have an 80% chance of success. If I fail, I’ll cooperate with King True Martial and King Thousand Wood. That way, we will certainly crack the array formation successfully.” “Certainly crack the array formation?” Everyone was excited by his words.

  “King Eastcalm, consolidate your strength first.”

  “Don’t disturb King Eastcalm.” The Godfiends were extremely excited.

  With a thought, Meng Chuan began to increase his strength.

  In his body’s dantian space, the Seamless realm’s Origins-a sphere-was extremely small. Countless white patterns could be seen on the surface of the sphere. Wisps of white light shot out from the sphere’s ‘two poles’ and formed a special fluctuation. It spread out in all directions before returning to the sphere. At this moment, the sphere circulated its laws and began merging with the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Techniques’ Grotto-Heaven profundities.

  The more brilliant and profound the Origins’ laws were, the more stable the sphere was. With this stability, the sphere could absorb more energy. A large amount of his small grotto-heaven’s power was absorbed and converted into Quintessential Essence. The sphere’s total energy increased, causing it to collapse.

  The collapse caused the sphere to become smaller and denser. The Quintessential Essence within the sphere was naturally purer than before!

  Demon array formation. Meng Chuan looked at the black chains surrounding the True Martial domain. Although the array formation was powerful, it couldn’t affect the strongest movement technique in humanity’s history. After all, Meng Chuan could infiltrate a deeper void layer than even Supremacy Roving Dragon -Senior Ye Hong

  Chapter 452 - Cracking the Formation

  Through a gap in the black chains, Meng Chuan could see the endless black river outside. He could sense the array formation’s terrifying might.

  Attacking the array formation head-on would be the most foolish decision.

  Now that I’ve reached the Grotto-heaven realm, I should be able to control the Bloodblade Disc’s runic array formation better. The Bloodblade Disc floated in front of Meng Chuan. His Essence Soul thought had already seeped into the Bloodblade Disc. The billions of runes on the Bloodblade Disc were mysterious and complicated. Ignoring the barely discernible runes, he could see complete runes up to the 128th layer.

  With the increase in Meng Chuan’s cultivation realm and him reaching the Grotto-Heaven realm, his prowess with the lightning lineage underwent a qualitative change. After looking at these runes with increased insight and knowledge, Meng Chuan understood a lot more of them, especially the superficial ones! Although he didn’t fully comprehend each individual rune, he could understand the relationships between the different runic patterns. It gave him knowledge on how to activate them.

  The Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique has improved on the World Roving Dragon Saber’s foundation. My movement technique has improved, and my strength has also improved.

  If ultimate techniques were divided into levels, the World Roving Dragon Saber would be considered a high-grade Creation-level technique. The Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique can be considered a transcendent-grade Creation-level technique. However, I based my movement technique on Senior Ye Hong’s foundation, so she deserves half the credit.

  In terms of foundation, the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique was on par with the True Martial Seven Absolutes. The True Martial Seven Absolutes built on the Yin-Yang Art’s foundation. Similarly, the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique was built on the World Roving Dragon Saber’s foundation.

  These two techniques were peak Creation-level ultimate techniques that were created by human Godfiends. The True Martial Seven Absolutes granted one a more comprehensive combat prowess. The Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique focused more on variations in movements and speed.

  Since Meng Chuan focused on movement techniques, although he was only in the early stage of the Grotto-Heaven realm, his attainments in this aspect had already reached an unimaginable level.

  Of course, in the vast River of Spacetime, there were Creation-level ultimate techniques that surpassed the True Martial Seven Absolutes and the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique.

  For example, the Golden Lotus Descent was a paramount Creation-level technique. It was far superior to the True Martial Seven Absolutes and the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique. However, it was also much more difficult to create such a strong technique. Such miraculous techniques made it possible for a Creation Supremacy to kill an Imperial Lord.

  Oh? King True Martial, King Molten, and company saw the Bloodblades fly back to Meng Chuan from the deep void.

  Meng Chuan looked at the Regis Godfien
ds around him.

  “Junior Brother Meng?” King True Martial looked at Meng Chuan expectantly.

  “Senior Brother, please use your domain to prevent the demon monarchs outside from prying,” said Meng Chuan. “Once I crack the array formation, you must immediately hold Monarch Peacock back.”

  King True Martial nodded. “Don’t worry. Leave it to me.”

  “King Eastcalm, you must remember that your safety comes first,” reminded King Thousand Wood.

  King Molten, Peng Mu, and King Calm Sea looked at Meng Chuan. “King Eastcalm, you have to be careful of the demons’ methods.”

  Meng Chuan had too many responsibilities. They couldn’t allow any accidents to happen to him.

  Meng Chuan smiled. “Everyone, please wait for the good news.”

  Whoosh.

  He disappeared. In reality, he had entered the deep void immediately.

  “I can’t see him at all?”

  “I heard that Senior Ye Hong could produce 81 embodiments when executing the World Roving Dragon Saber Art. However, Meng Chuan has completely vanished?” The Regis Godfiends present were astonished.

  King Transcendence also sighed in amazement. “I could only enter the shadow world after becoming a phantom lifeform. However, King Eastcalm’s skill in the void lineage allows him to enter the void’s depths completely. We can’t even see him.”

  King True Martial was famous for having comprehensive combat prowess. However, he had reached the Grotto-heaven realm’s late stage. He could clearly sense Meng Chuan.

  Deep in the void.

  Meng Chuan stood in the same spot, but in a completely different space.

  The deep void? While he stood in the deep void, Meng Chuan could see the outside world. The Black River Array Formation, Godfiends, and demon monarchs outside were slightly distorted and blurry.

  King True Martial once said that the River of Spacetime is like a thousand-layered cake to him. Meng Chuan smiled. It’s about the same as what I perceive now. It’s really like a huge thousand-layered cake. The vast void is split into several layers. Ordinary mortals, ordinary Godfiends, and ordinary demon monarchs are usually in the outermost layer. As for me, I’m hidden in a very deep void layer. The void was like the sea.

  Some living beings could only survive above the sea. Some could dive deep into the sea.

  As for Meng Chuan, he had entered a deep void layer. His attainments in the void lineage easily allowed him to stay in this void layer and not be expelled.

  The shallow void layers can still intersect with the outside world. However, it’s very difficult to come into contact with the outside world once I’m in a deep void layer, thought Meng Chuan.

  A pure, powerful force could shatter the shallow void layers and connect with the outside world. As for the deep void? It was just too difficult for one to connect with the outside world from here.

  Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

  Meng Chuan released his invisible electromagnetic domain.

  Ka! Ka! Ka!

  Bloodblades flew out from the Bloodblade Disc -a total of 24.

  With Meng Chuan’s current cultivation, he had enough control over the Bloodblade Disc’s runic formation to handle 24 Bloodblades at the same time.

  With this, his defensive means had greatly improved.

  An Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence had made careful considerations when refining this defensive treasure for his disciple.

  The different technique realms correspond to the Bloodblade Disc’s different levels. With only six Bloodblades protecting his body, the remaining 18 Bloodblades circled Meng Chuan and accelerated within the electromagnetic domain.

  Meng Chuan executed the Cloud Dragon Snake Saber Art with the 18 Bloodblades. Each of them instantly had the strength of a top Creation realm expert.

  The electromagnetic domain accelerated the Bloodblades each time they circled it once.

  In a few seconds, the 18 Bloodblades accelerated to their maximum speed.

  The electromagnetic domain increases the Bloodblades’ speed by 30 to 40 percent. They barely have the strength of a peak Creation realm expert. Clearly, as the Bloodblades’ strength increases, the effectiveness of the speed boost-granted by the electromagnetic domain-decreases.

  Apart from Flowing Sand, his other divine powers had decreasing benefits to his strength. It was an inevitable situation. Although the strength increase had decreased, Meng Chuan’s divine power still increased the Bloodblades’ power slightly.

  Go. Standing in the deep void, Meng Chuan commanded the Bloodblades with a thought.

  The 18 Bloodblades—which had reached their maximum speed-left the deep void and attacked the demon monarchs outside.

  The True Martial domain disrupted all prying means, preventing the demons from knowing what was happening inside.

  However, when Meng Chuan entered the deep void, Holy Lady Strings felt something. Huh? Among the Godfiends and demon monarchs present, her attainments in the void lineage were second only to King True Martial’s. Although she couldn’t see Meng Chuan, she could vaguely sense a living being in the deep void.

  “Everyone, be careful,” said Holy Lady Strings via voice transmission. “It’s likely that a Godfiend has sneaked into the deep void.”

  “Sneaked into the deep void? Who?” Monarch Peacock frowned.

  Holy Lady Strings shook her head. “I don’t know.” At the same time, Nine Lives Cocoon threads spread around the Eighteen Black River Guard, carefully protecting all of them. “How can a Godfiend enter the deep void?” The Eighteen Black River Guard was somewhat nervous. An invisible enemy was very terrifying

  “Strings, protect the Eighteen Black River Guard,” said Monarch Peacock.

  “There are 18 of them. I can only do my best, but I can’t assure their absolute safety.” Holy Lady Strings was very uneasy. The Nine Lives Cocoon was the strongest Tribulation treasure she could’ve chosen from when it came to life-preservation means. It could protect her entire body completely. However, its defense was much weaker when used to protect her companions. Protect the Eighteen Black River Guard perfectly when the numerous threads were spread out over several kilometers? She didn’t have the confidence.

  Monarch Peacock nodded and said, “Everyone, don’t panic. Every Godfiend has their own specialties. If this Godfiend can enter the deep void, his offensive means might be weak.”

  As soon as he finished speaking

  “Not good.” Holy Lady Strings’s expression changed drastically. She could sense a terrifying force coming from the deep void.

  The Eighteen Black River Guard controlled the array formation and suppressed the void. Finally, they sensed the terrifying force. However, it was too late for them!

  Swish! Swish! Swish!

  Beams of light arrived from the deep void. The moment they appeared in the outside world, they were only a few feet away from a goat demon Black River Guard. The light beams instantly struck him. The goat demon’s eyes widened, unable to react in time. In the blink of an eye, the Black River Guard member exploded!

  Chapter 453 - Giving Up

  The attack happened nearly instantly.

  In fact, Holy Lady Strings had already tried her best to protect the Black River Guard. The goat demon had been wrapped with threads, and it had done its best to resist the attacks. However, the first Bloodblade pierced the Nine Lives Cocoon threads and struck the Black River Guard’s body, causing his chest to cave in. The second Bloodblade entered the Black River Guard’s body completely. The third Bloodblade shattered his body, struck the Life Casket, and destroyed the life core.

  The Life Casket was extremely tough, and it served as protection for the life core.

  However, when the Bloodblades struck the Life Casket’s surface, a terrifying force was transmitted, shattering everything inside it.

  Just like that, the goat demon Black River Guard died!

  When the first Black River Guard was killed, the originally vast 400-kilometer-long black river immed
iately calmed down. The black chains—which had been suppressing the True Martial domain-dissipated.

  Boom!

  King True Martial traveled five kilometers in a second. His True Martial domain’s range expanded to five kilometers around him, instantly enveloping Monarch Peacock-who had been laying siege more than five kilometers away.

  “Demon Monarch Peacock.” King True Martial smiled as he charged forward, wanting to engage in close combat. “Damn it.” Monarch Peacock’s purple eyes were filled with anger as he glanced at the distant Black River Guard. Bloodblades struck the five terrified Black River Guard members at the same time. Their bodies exploded as the vast black river began to dissipate. The Bloodblades continued to pursue the other members of the Black River Guard.

  The Eighteen Black River Guard is finished. Monarch Peacock understood this point. He stared at King True Martial—who was charging towards him—and sneered coldly. He held his spear and charged towards King True Martial.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Monarch Peacock and King True Martial clashed.

  On the other side, Holy Lady Strings’s expression was gloomy. Patriarch Poison Dragon shook his head slightly. “The Eighteen Black River Guard is finished.”

  “It was King Eastcalm,” said Holy Lady Strings coldly. She was able to guess the murderer’s identity when the Bloodblades appeared.

  Patriarch Poison Dragon frowned. “King Eastcalm, Meng Chuan? Again?”

  King Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, had obstructed the demons too many times in this war.

  “Holy Lady Strings, save me.”

  “Help!”

  “Save me!”

  The members of the Black River Guard were filled with despair. They were originally fifth Firmament demon monarchs that reigned supreme in a particular region. Under the Imperial Lord’s orders, they willingly transformed into the Black River Guard. They didn’t have hope of becoming demon sages. After becoming part of the Black River Guard, their strength increased greatly. In the future, their status in the Demon Realm would also increase greatly. It wasn’t a bad option.
