Chapter 414 You Have to Thank Meng Chuan

One of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s eight major city passes-Snow Wind Pass.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Snowflakes fluttered in the sky. The people in Snow Wind Pass lived as usual. The streets were very lively.

As for the snow?

The residents of Snow Wind Pass were already used to it. As the coldest city pass in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the traditions here were very different from the rest of the world. Snow and ice had long become a part of the people’s lives.

“We’ve been in Snow Wind Pass for more than a month. It snows almost half the time,” said Liu Qiyue as she ate hot pot in the pavilion. It was bone-chilling outside, but it was rather warm inside the pavilion.

“It won’t take long for you to be sick of it,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “The snow here never melts.”

“At the very least, I think it’s very beautiful now.” Liu Qiyue took in the vista. “It’s still the same houses, trees, and soil. However, with snow, it looks completely different. It’s still summer in Jiang State Capital, but it’s snowing heavily here.”

SU

Meng Chuan smiled.

As long as his wife liked it.

His wife had been transferred to Snow Wind Pass. Among the eight major city passes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only Luo Tang Pass and Sword Sovereign Pass were guarded by Creation Supremacies. As for the other six city passes, six of the strongest Regis Godfiends of the current generation-King True Martial, King Calm Sea, King White Elephant, King Swallow Mountain, King Snow Wind, and King Yamafire-originally guarded them. Among these six Godfiends, only King True Martial, King Calm Sea, and King White Elephant had reached the Grotto-Heaven realm. King Swallow Mountain, King Snow Wind, and King Yamafire were all peak Regis Godfiends.

As for the other Regis Godfiends, such as King East River, Archean Mountain Lord, Elder Yi, Patriarch Chu, King Luyue, and company, they were relatively weaker.

Of course, disregarding Luo Tang Pass and Sword Sovereign Pass, the other six major city passes were still important!

Each of these six major city passes could allow fourth Firmament demon monarchs to enter the human world. Currently, hundreds of fourth Firmament demon monarchs hid in the human world. Even if 2,000 fourth Firmament demon monarchs were to enter, they wouldn’t be able to put a dent in the human cities.

However, the demons had to consider their heritage! Considering the nurturing period for generations of experts, it was impossible for them to send all their fourth Firmament demon monarchs into the human world. That would result in a generational gap in their cultivation world.

The guardians of these six major city passes often changed. Guardian Divine Beasts, awakened ancient Godfiends, and Regis Godfiends of the current era took turns. However, most of them were still guarded by Regis Godfiends. Therefore, demons seldom attacked the city passes. Even with her normal strength, Liu Qiyue could easily guard a large city.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue looked up.

A beam of light descended and transformed into a dark figure. It was Li Guan’s Essence Soul avatar.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue stood up. “Supremacy.” “Eating hot pot when it’s snowing? Not bad, not bad.” Li Guan’s Essence Soul avatar walked over with a smile. “Get me a set of cutlery.”

Liu Qiyue prepared a set with a flip of her hand.

Li Guan sat down and handed a detailed map to Meng Chuan. “Meng Chuan, take a look.” With that said, he picked up the chopsticks and began eating

Meng Chuan looked at the map. This was a map of the entire human world. Many of the places were marked out in detail. Very few areas had depths deliberately marked out. Some areas were deep underground, while others were at extreme altitudes.

“These are the connection points between the World Gap and the human world,” said Li Guan. “I spent one to two months traveling all over the world. I marked out the connection points.”

Meng Chuan nodded. “They’re spread across the world, including the ocean. All the connection points are connected… They are like two rings that surround the human world.”

“The demons are at their wits’ end now. Their only solution is to send a batch of fifth Firmament demon monarchs into the World Gap. From there, they’ll infiltrate into our human world,” said Li Guan as he ate. “To send them in, one has to first determine the connection points in the human world. They also have to determine the connection points in the World Gap. Only by matching two connection points can they form a passageway.

“Currently, with what we have, our first step is to determine the connection points the demons will most likely target,” said Li Guan. “Then, we will lay in wait! Meng Chuan, your speed is even more astonishing now. As long as you hide in the shadows, once the enemy attempts to attack the world membrane, you can rush over as quickly as possible. You are fast enough to hold them back as they try to tear open a rift between the human world and the World Gap,” said Li Guan with a smile. “Once they are stalled by you, Meng Chuan, they will be finished.”

“Understood.” Meng Chuan nodded and carefully looked at the map.

“How far can you travel in 30 seconds?” asked Li Guan.

“2,500 kilometers,” said Meng Chuan.

“That fast?” Li Guan’s eyes lit up. He looked at the map and pointed to a spot. “I need you to be here often. From this central spot, there are the most connection points in a 2,500-kilometer radius. Furthermore, it’s also in the sea… It’s very likely that the demons will choose the sea as their infiltration point.”

Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright.”

“Liu Qiyue, I’m sorry. You two are always separated,” said Li Guan apologetically.

“It’s more important to deal with the demons,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “If the fifth Firmament demon monarchs are unable to enter the World Gap, then humanity will have a long period of peace.”

By doing this, the demons could only place their hopes on the World Entrances, hoping that they gradually expanded over time.

Before their army surpassed the limits of humanity, the human world would be peaceful.

In fact, before the World Entrances exceeded the limits of humanity, they might begin to shrink and disappear. The two worlds would begin to separate from each other… and the demons would never have any hope of invading the human world successfully again. The state of World Entrances depended on luck. To the three demon Imperial Lords, they naturally didn’t wish to place their bets on luck.

“Meng Chuan, cultivate well and reach the Creation realm as soon as possible,” said Li Guan with a smile. “Once you do, you can refine an entrusted object and condense an embodiment, sending it everywhere it needs to

be.”

Creation Supremacies could condense Essence Soul embodiments.

Although Essence Soul embodiments didn’t have much combat strength, they could still communicate information urgently. It was much more convenient than using a transmission token.

As for entrusted objects, one could only personally refine them after becoming a Creation Supremacy. Therefore, many experts with fifth-level Essence Souls-like King True Martial, Meng Chuan, and Patriarch Yellow Oscillatecouldn’t refine anything to maintain their Essence Soul embodiments before they broke through to the Creation realm.

“I’ve only been a Regis Godfiend for a few years. It’s still early,” said Meng Chuan.

“That’s true. With your talent, you might attain a sixth-level Essence Soul first,” said Li Guan with a smile. “That way, you can directly condense an Essence Soul avatar.”

Swoosh! Swoosh!

King Calm Sea arrived at Archean Mountain.

“Greetings, Master, Supremacies.” King Calm Sea bowed respectfully to Qin Wu, Li Guan, and Luo Tang in Grotto-Heaven Pavilion’s garden. King Sword Nine stood beside him.

“The two of you, follow us.” Li Guan and company walked ahead. King Calm Sea and King Sword Nine followed behind in puzzlement.

They came to an ordinary room and walked towards the painting that hung on the wall. The five figures became smaller as they walked into the painting. Finally, they were as tiny as specks of dust as they entered further into the painting. King Sword Nine looked at the incomparably huge painting in shock. King Calm Sea was still relatively calm because he had entered the painting before.

From the painting, they walked into a hall before arriving at a square.

Why are there three new buildings? King Calm Sea looked at the newly-appeared Star Cluster Building, Battle God Pagoda, and Heart Sea Palace in puzzlement.

“That’s Star Cluster Building,” said Li Guan as he pointed at it. “Ancestral Master Archean Eon personally selected the precious manuals —which he obtained as he roamed the River of Spacetime—that were placed in there. They’re stored here because he thinks that these ultimate techniques are suitable for his juniors. There are a total of 98 manuals inside. All of them are extremely precious.”

Manuals left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon? King Sword Nine was excited, but King Calm Sea was puzzled.

Why haven’t I heard about this after all these years?

“Among these 98 manuals, most are Tribulation and Imperial Lord-level ultimate techniques. There are very few Creation-level manuals,” continued Li Guan. “These few Creation-level manuals are all extraordinary. Some Creation Supremacies might even have a chance of slaying an Imperial Lord if they reach perfection in them.”

Slaying an Imperial Lord despite being at a lower realm? King Sword Nine and King Calm Sea found it unbelievable.

“Archean Mountain disciples, who have reached the Dharma Domain realm, can choose to read any three manuals below the Tribulation-level,” said Li Guan. “Once you reach the Grotto-Heaven realm, you can read any manuals you want.”

“Yes.” King Sword Nine was overjoyed.

King Calm Sea listened in a daze.

I can read any manual inside? In the past few years, I’ve only obtained three Creation-level temporal arts from the demons with great difficulty. I wanted to obtain an Imperial Lord level ultimate technique, but could hardly get one. Now, I can read the Imperial Lord-level and Tribulation-level manuals freely?

King Calm Sea couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you only telling us about this now?”

“That’s because Archean Mountain didn’t have such things in the past,” said Li Guan with a smile. “You have to thank Meng Chuan. Meng Chuan obtained the Star Cluster Building with great difficulty and gave it to Archean Mountain. That’s why you have a chance of perusing these manuals.”
