Each of these nine Essence Soul avatars has terrifying combat strength. I’ll consolidate my understanding of Infinite Saber first before deducing the corresponding movement technique.
Swoosh.
Meng Chuan flew out of Eastcalm City. He flew into the wilderness. Meng Chuan stood in the wilderness and tried to strike out.
Swoosh.
Everything around him slowed down greatly. In the distance, the people’s feet didn’t land on the ground after taking a step for a long time. The wind blew the fallen leaves extremely slowly. The morning dew fell from the leaves very slowly. It took them a long time to land on the ground.
The beautiful saber vanished from his vision and entered the spacetime gap before returning to its scabbard. The flow of time around him returned to normal. The people in the distance began walking normally, and the leaves floated normally. The dew fell to the ground.
To those in the outside world, they would think that Meng Chuan’s saber had never moved from his waist at all. This was because he had drawn and sheathed his saber in the blink of an eye. Furthermore, due to the changed time flow, he had drawn the saber 50 times faster than usual. Even Creation Supremacies typically wouldn’t have noticed him drawing and sheathing his saber.
The flow of time around me is over 50 times faster than in the outside world. Meng Chuan was secretly alarmed. This strike is already unbelievably fast after tearing through the worldly law’s restrictions. With the changed time flow, it’s even faster.
Below the Heaven Earth realm, this strike is invincible. Meng Chuan understood the limits of his paramount technique. However, Heaven Earth realm experts can withstand the worldly laws with just their Heaven Earth domains. Their speed is also unimaginably high. When an Imperial Lord flies at normal speed, they would be able to travel thousands of kilometers in a second. With my current strength, I can’t deal with two Heaven Earth realm demon sages at the same time with just Infinite Saber. Infinite Saber is currently at the Grotto-Heaven realm’s early stage.
A paramount technique was very terrifying. Although Infinite Saber was only at the Grotto-Heaven realm’s early stage, it was invincible beneath the Heaven Earth. It was infinitely close to having the strength of a Heaven Earth realm technique. However, if he wanted to defeat a Heaven Earth realm expert, he needed to continue improving the paramount technique.
As long as Infinite Saber reaches the perfected Grotto-Heaven realm, I will be able to kill an Imperial Lord. Humanity will definitely win this war. Meng Chuan’s eyes flashed.
Swoosh.
Meng Chuan instantly tore through the air.
High in the sky, Meng Chuan tested his new movement technique repeatedly. Since Meng Chuan had already comprehended the Infinite Saber Art, he only needed two hours to deduce the corresponding movement technique.
Boom!
Everything slowed down.
Meng Chuan flew across the world at high speeds. He felt like he had forcefully torn through the worldly law’s suppression, causing his speed to rise to an astonishing level.
An Imperial Lord used their Heaven Earth domain to block the worldly laws, allowing them an easy flight. Meng Chuan’s paramount technique forcefully tore through the worldly laws’ restrictions that suppressed his speed. It was much more difficult to achieve.
If I don’t use the Bloodblade Disc, I can fly 600 kilometers in a second with just my body. If I factor in the changed time flow, I can travel 50 times faster. In other words, I can travel over 30,000 kilometers in a second! With this speed, I can reach one end of Archean Eon Realm in a second from anywhere within the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Meng Chuan sighed inwardly.
Although Infinite Saber had just reached the Grotto-Heaven realm’s early stage, this paramount technique of his had gradually revealed his terrifying strength. It granted him astonishing speed, further complemented by the changed time!
I’ll make a trip to Archean Mountain and tell Master and the others about this, thought Meng Chuan. They are currently frustrated over how to guard the super-large city passes. Each of my nine Essence Soul avatars can guard a super-large city pass.
A super-large city pass faced the threat of fifth Firmament demon monarchs. One of Meng Chuan’s seventh-level Essence Soul avatars was enough to guard a super-large city pass.
Whoosh.
With a flash, the scenery in front of him blurred. He had already traversed over 5,000 kilometers and arrived at Archean Mountain.
I’m here. Meng Chuan stood in front of Archean Mountain’s Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
Chapter 484 - The Rising Hope of Dawn for the Human World
Archean Mountain, Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
“Meng Chuan is here.” Li Guan stood in the courtyard as Qin Wu and Luo Tang’s illusory figures appeared beside him.
“In the past half-month, he didn’t reunite with his children. Instead, he visited every place he and Liu Qiyue lived in before,” said Luo Tang in surprise. “But now, he’s suddenly looking for us. Did he make a decision?”
The illusory Qin Wu frowned slightly. He was somewhat worried. His concern for Meng Chuan made him worried. Qin Wu was very concerned about this genius disciple of his that had been focused on slaying demons for many years. He was afraid that this genius disciple’s personality would change drastically, affecting his cultivation path.
“He’s here.” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang looked over. Meng Chuan had already arrived in the courtyard.
“Greetings, Supremacies, Master,” said Meng Chuan humbly. “He looks fine. Very calm,” said Luo Tang via voice transmission.
“He looks normal.” Li Guan and Qin Wu felt relieved.
Li Guan smiled. “Meng Chuan, why are you here?”
“My Essence Soul has just broken through to the seventh level,” said Meng Chuan directly. “Seventh-level Essence Soul?” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were stunned by Meng Chuan’s words.
Although the Essence Soul of Meng Chuan’s first six levels rose quite quickly, the further he progressed, the harder it became. It had only been 20 years since Meng Chuan attained a sixth-level Essence Soul, but now it had already reached the seventh level?
Qin Wu couldn’t help but ask, “Meng Chuan, did you really break through?”
Meng Chuan nodded slightly. At the same time, nine dark Essence Soul avatars flew out of his body and landed beside him. Meng Chuan’s nine Essence Soul avatars stood in the courtyard.
Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang’s eyes lit up. “Meng Chuan, do you know who attained a seventh-level Essence Soul the fastest in human history before you came along?” asked Luo Tang.
“I know. It was Myriad Sword Island Lord,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “When he was 153 years old, he attained a seventh-level Essence Soul. However, he failed to attain an eighth-level Essence Soul his entire life.”
an
Li Guan said, “The further one’s Essence Soul advances, the harder it becomes to break through. Senior Myriad Sword Island Lord attained a sixth-level Essence Soul at the age of 96. He attained a seventh-level Essence Soul at the age of 153. As for you, you’re only 99 years old this year, right? However, you have already attained a seventh-level Essence Soul. You attained a seventh-level Essence Soul 50 years faster than Senior Myriad Sword Island Lord.”
Meng Chuan also understood that there had been many factors that contributed to his breakthrough. The key factor was the creation of his paramount technique. If he hadn’t created the paramount technique-which boosted his Essence Soul’s growth greatly-it would’ve probably taken him several more years.
“This is great,” said Luo Tang excitedly. “The pressure on the super-large city passes has been increasing recently. Meng Chuan now has nine Essence Soul avatars. Every Essence Soul avatar can carry Quintessential Essence. With the Cloud Dragon Snake Saber Art, his Essence Soul avatars are able to guard a super-large city pass. Even if his Essence Soul avatar’s Quintessential Essence reserves are exhausted, Meng Chuan can immediately send
another Essence Soul avatar to swap defenses.”
Li Guan and Qin Wu nodded slightly. “Yes.”
“Meng Chuan, if you become a Creation Supremacy, your Quintessential Essence will undergo a qualitative change. Once you become a Creation Supremacy, you will be able to activate a super-large city pass’s array formation,” said Li guan. “With the array formation aiding your Essence Soul avatars, it will be even easier for them to guard a super-large city pass.”
Every super-large city pass contained an array formation. These fixed array formations could unleash extremely terrifying might. However, one needed Creation Quintessential Essence to activate them! Activating the array formation with Seamless Quintessential Essence would cause the array formation to weaken greatly.
“I will become a Creation Supremacy in the near future,” said Meng Chuan. “You plan on breaking through?” The illusory Qin Wu was surprised, but he quickly nodded. “That’s right. Paramount techniques are too difficult to create. Even in the outer realm’s countless worlds, it’s extremely rare for one to create a paramount technique. Nobody in humanity’s history has ever created a paramount technique!
“Your Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique is already an impressive ultimate technique. You’ve already reached the Grotto-Heaven realm’s late stage with the technique. It shows that you have great potential for the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique’s path. With it as your foundation, you will have a limitless future as a Creation Supremacy.” “Master, I’ve already created a paramount technique,” said Meng Chuan. “I plan on consolidating my foundation and making a trip to the World Gap. I want to see if I can find Holy Lady Strings. Once I kill her, I’ll immediately break through to become a Creation Supremacy.”
Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang listened to his words dazedly.
Killing Holy Lady Strings? The three of them didn’t care about that. They only cared about…
“You created a paramount technique?” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang looked at Meng Chuan as though they were looking at a monster.
“An important figure is about to appear in our human world.” Li Guan stared at Meng Chuan and said, “Ever since Ancestral Master Archean Eon, our human world’s descendants have been relatively mediocre. They are worlds apart from Ancestral Master Archean Eon. Now, there’s finally a genius that can approach Ancestral Master Archean Eon!”
“You actually managed to create a paramount technique yourself?” Qin Wu and Luo Tang were shocked as well.
They had only read about such peerless geniuses in Archean Mountain’s dossiers. They were legendary figures in the outer realm. Anyone who created a paramount technique was a legend.
Now, such a legend was in front of them; he was also an Archean Mountain Godfiend!
At this moment, Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang seemed to see a peerless expert that was close to Ancestral Master Archean Eon gradually rising. The human world welcomed a dazzling era once again.
Meng Chuan looked at the three people in front of him. “Supremacies, Master?”
“Meng Chuan,” said Qin Wu immediately. “You have to keep your self-created paramount technique a secret. Don’t tell anybody about it.”
“Yes. There will be trouble if the demons learn of it,” said Li Guan. “Of course, no one can threaten you in the human world. However, with your talent, you will have to go to the outer realm in the future. There are all kinds of experts in the outer realm. Even in the outer realm, your self-created paramount technique has to be kept a secret. It will also reduce a lot of your future troubles.”
Meng Chuan nodded. This was the same advice he had once received from Fairy Meng long ago. It was always good to hide his trump cards.
“I remember. It’s recorded in the books left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon,” said Meng Chuan. “If one wants to be certain that it’s a paramount technique, one has to be Fifth Tribulation Eminence at the very least before they can see through the moves’ profundities with a single glance. Therefore, as long as I’m careful, no one will be able to recognize it for what it is when I use it.”
“That’s a matter for when you’re adventuring in the outer realm. Let’s talk about it later,” said Li Guan with a smile. “Are you planning on consolidating your strength and making a trip to the World Gap?”.
Meng Chuan nodded. “Once I become a Creation Supremacy, I won’t be able to go to the World Gap again. Therefore, I’ll take this opportunity to get rid of Holy Lady Strings. However, it’s difficult to estimate how long it will be before she enters. I might have to wait for a year or two.”
Among the fifth Firmament demon monarchs, Monarch Peacock, Holy Lady Strings, and Patriarch Poison Dragon posed the greatest threat. Now that Monarch Peacock had left for the outer realm and Patriarch Poison Dragon was dead, Meng Chuan decided to kill Holy Lady Strings before he broke through.
“It’s up to you,” said Qin Wu with a smile.
“By the way, Meng Chuan, what has your paramount technique focused on?” asked Luo Tang. Li Guan and Qin Wu also looked at Meng Chuan curiously. “It’s very similar to Senior Guo Ke’s Heaven Earth realm move from Heart Intent Saber,” said Meng Chuan. “It has about 70 to 80 percent of the Heart Intent Saber move’s might.”
“It’s very similar to the Heart Intent Saber move—which is at the Heaven Earth realm?” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were secretly alarmed.
With this single move, Senior Guo Ke had been invincible in his era as a Regis Godfiend.
Creation Supremacies could not see his strike or defend against it. They would only realize that their opponent had moved once they were struck.
“By using my paramount technique, I’m much faster than before,” said Meng Chuan. “In a second, I can reach anywhere in the human world. Future reinforcements will be much faster than before.”
“Alright.”
“Got it.” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang nodded in agreement.
After a while, Meng Chuan left Archean Mountain.
Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were silent for a long time.
“I’m relieved.” Li Guan finally spoke. “Although I’m only a few decades away from the end of my life and probably won’t see the end of this war, I’m relieved. With Meng Chuan around, even if we are momentarily disadvantaged in this war, we will ultimately
win.”
“It’s been so many years since a monstrous expert has appeared. It looks like our human world is about to produce another Tribulation Eminence,” said Qin Wu with a smile. “This feeling of my disciple becoming a Tribulation Eminence is really…”
“Look at how smug you are,” Luo Tang said with a smile. “Regardless, I feel much more relaxed now.”
“I can still live for a long time. With the Millennium Instant mystic technique’s help, I can live even longer,” said Qin Wu with a smile. “I want to see how far my disciple, Meng Chuan, can take our human world.”
“I’m younger than you,” said Luo Tang with a smile.
Li Guan smiled and nodded. “I’m reminding the two of you to keep an eye on Meng Chuan. Since it’s a time like this, we need Meng Chuan to be more careful. He mustn’t take any unnecessary risks. Us humans have waited for such a person to appear for many years. We can’t have him die midway.”
Qin Wu nodded immediately. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on him.”
Chapter 485 - Sudden Change in Cultivation
Snow fluttered everywhere as an ordinary-looking carriage advanced. The carriage driver was a muscular man.
In fact, this carriage driver was a demon servant with strength close to a fourth Firmament demon monarch. When Meng Chuan had been wiping out the demons in the world, he had captured a large number of powerful demon servants.
“Giddy-up!” The carriage traveled through the snow.
Yang Yuan sat within the carriage. He looked out through the window, but he had other thoughts on his mind.
I’ll be participating in Archean Mountain’s entrance examination in
a month. Yang Yuan pondered. Which Godfiend body formulation should I choose? He wasn’t worried about not passing the assessment.
Ever since the demons’ large-scale invasion decades ago, many Godfiends were sent out to patrol various regions in the vast world. Archean Mountain had also greatly increased their recruitment quota-recruiting 50 disciples every year instead of the original 20. They increased their recruitment quota because the next 100 to 200 years were the war’s most critical period. With the treasures and rare items obtained from the World Gap, the three major sects were able to sustain the expenditures of these new disciples for 100 to 200 years. With 50 available spots, Yang Yuan was naturally confident of being admitted into Archean Mountain. He even had hopes of achieving first place in the entrance examination.
Achieving first place is just so I don’t disappoint my family. It’s not that important. My main concern is which transcendent-grade Godfiend body I should choose. Yang Yuan carefully pondered his choice. What has aided me most in my cultivation? It’s grandfather’s guidance! Grandfather is unspokenly the strongest Godfiend in the world after cultivating for only 100 years. His future achievements will be even greater. Therefore, my best choice is to choose the same cultivation path as my grandfather—the lightning lineage. It’ll be easier for Grandpa to guide me if I cultivate the lightning lineage. If I choose another path, Grandpa’s insights towards it might not be deep or profound enough. There are only two transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies of the lightning lineage. One is the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body, and the other is the Eon Sea Fiend Body.
I naturally want to aim for a perfected Godfiend Body. The Lightning Devastator Fiend Body… its requirements for one’s willpower are terrifying. I don’t think I can achieve the perfected Nine Refinements, even if I’m given a few centuries. Although Yang Yuan was hard on himself, he was still used to enjoying a comfortable life. Therefore, the Eon Sea Fiend Body-which has a lower cultivation difficulty-suits me better.
