Chapter 141: Rookie Meng Chuan

Meng Chuan looked at the demon monarchs in front of him. They were much bigger than humans. The tallest tree demon monarch was 230 feet tall. It was common for demon monarchs to be 30 to 50 feet tall. There were only five demon monarchs that were shorter than humans. The shortest one was a rat demon monarch—only two feet tall. However, the rat demon monarch’s strength was ranked in the top five among the 35 demon monarchs.

Boom! Boom!

The human Godfiends and demon monarchs clashed.

Meng Chuan saw Yang Xingwu’s Cyan Silk Domain being suppressed by numerous domain attacks from the demons. It shrank to a radius of 200 feet. historical

There was no other way. Yang Xingwu’s domain was stronger than any of the third Firmament demon monarchs’, but there were many of them!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three poisonous stingers streaked across the air, piercing through the Cyan Silk Domain. Meng Chuan instantly slashed out with his saber; each strike was like a blooming red lotus. The saber beam was as beautiful as lotus petals as they successfully blocked the three stingers.

In the blink of an eye, Meng Chuan blocked the long-range attacks of seven demon monarchs. His saber art was fast. The Red Lotus Stance was Heart Intent Saber Art’s only defensive move. It was very easy to block these long-range attacks.

“Junior Brother Meng, be careful. The demons believe that you’re a rookie. They will focus their attacks on you.” There was a black-and-white domain around Mu Qing. She easily blocked the long-ranged attacks with her two swords.

“There are very few demon monarchs who are good at long-range attacks. Over half of their attacks were concentrated on Junior Brother Meng’s side. If we engage in melee combat later, they will probably target you.” There was a blood-colored gas around Shi Xiu. With a wave of his hand, he blocked the long-ranged attacks.

“They will break their teeth trying.” Meng Chuan was relaxed.

Currently, both sides were hiding in their respective domains.

The demons only had ten demon monarchs that could deliver long-range attacks. After being blocked by the Cyan Silk Domain, those attacks would weaken greatly. They were naturally no threat to Meng Chuan, Mu Qing, and Shi Xiu.

Meng Chuan and company saw another 25 third Firmament demon monarchs advancing through the World Entrance. Soon, they would arrive in the human world. When they met up with the 34 demon monarchs, there would be 59 third Firmament demon monarchs. The threat would greatly escalate. Of course, the elites were mainly among the 35 demon monarchs, of which a rhinoceros demon monarch had already died. Only with more demon monarchs would they be able to withstand the humans’ attacks.

“All we need to do is guard North River Pass! Holding back the demon monarchs takes priority. Killing them is secondary,” said Zhang Yunhu via voice transmission. The reason they jumped down from the wall was to hold back these demon monarchs.

They couldn’t allow the demon monarchs to escape from the inner-city pass! Of course, the 800-foot-high city wall was a huge obstacle to the demon monarchs.

Third Firmament demon monarchs could leap 1000 feet horizontally, but how high could they jump vertically? It naturally wasn’t as high as they could horizontally.

Newly-advanced Godfiends and first Firmament demon monarchs could jump about 200 to 300 feet high. If they wanted to jump 100 feet higher, their strength would need to be more than double.

Indestructible Godfiends and second Firmament demon monarchs could jump about 300 to 400 feet high. Great Solar Godfiends and third Firmament demon monarchs could jump about 500 to 600 feet high.

If they wanted to jump 800 feet, demon monarchs would have to rely on domains. Of course, this would only happen if Godfiends weren’t attacking them. They could also step on their companions’ bodies and jump even higher. Using these methods, they could jump above the city walls.

However, with Godfiends attacking them, the demon monarchs needed to use all their strength to deal with them. To scale the city wall at this moment would make them target dummies for sharpshooters like Liu Qiyue. They would even meet with Zhang Yunhu’s short spears.

With the Godfiends engaging them in combat, the city walls were enough to restrain the demon monarchs. The vast majority of demon monarchs were not birds. In fact, demons were not willing to gather third Firmament avian demon monarchs. This was because once they did so, human experts would rush over at all costs. Then, they would control the avian demon monarchs, becoming flying mounts for the humans.

To humans, most demon monarchs were killed without mercy. However, flying mounts were extremely good. The faster a flying mount was, the more human Godfiends liked them. This was because they could travel to different places quickly.

...

Meng Chuan found it very strange. Despite being on the battlefield with five other Godfiends, the two sides seemed to be locked into small-scale skirmishes.

“The second batch of demon monarchs has come out. Be careful,” said Zhang Yunhu solemnly.

Meng Chuan also saw them.

The first batch of demon monarchs formed a phalanx formation and waited for the second batch of demon monarchs to arrive. The demon monarchs’ collective might immediately soared.

“The demon monarchs are all here.” In the middle of the demon monarch formation, a black-robed demoness’s voice echoed in every demon monarch’s ears. “North River Pass is missing two Godfiends, Ge Cong, and Wu Zixiu. However, there are two new Godfiends, Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue. Liu Qiyue has a Phoenix Divine Body, and her arrows contain phoenix flames. Everyone be careful. Among the six Godfiends in front of us, there’s Meng Chuan. Meng Chuan is an Archean Mountain Godfiend with a perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body. His saber art is very fast, and his speed far exceeds ours. He also has weaknesses. First, his body is relatively weak among transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies. As long as we restrain him, we will probably be able to kill him in two or three blows. Second, he has little experience. This is his first time in battle. We can use his lack of experience against him.

“We can lure him into using his speed. As long as he dares to charge forward and distance himself from his companions, we can instantly kill him in one fell swoop,” said the black-robed demoness. “We will focus on him. Once he falls, we can kill the other Godfiends.”

“Yes.” None of the demon monarchs dared to disobey.

The demon hierarchy was very strict. The spider demoness was the strongest among them. She was the spawn of a demon sage and the designated leader. The other demon monarchs had to obey her.

“Attack!” The black-robed demoness ordered.

The cautious demon monarchs immediately began attacking wildly.

Eight hundred years ago, before they discovered the human world, the demons followed the law of the jungle. Every day, they engaged in endless battles! Countless demons and many demon monarchs died in battle! Now, the demons sent ordinary demons and demon monarchs—that would have died in battle—to attack humans! They even used credits and treasures to motivate them. Over the years, the number of powerhouses among the demons had increased, and their overall strength had increased.

The leaders of the demon realm also gave region leaders “death quotas.” Demon monarch deaths aided in the production of fresh demon monarchs.

The humans also knew this, but there was nothing they could do.

Oh? Meng Chuan’s expression changed.

The demon monarchs—that had been hiding in the multi-stacked domain—instantly charged forward into the Cyan Silk Domain and engaged in close combat.

Melee combat was what most demon monarchs were good at.

“Kill!”

Twelve extremely powerful demon monarchs charged at Meng Chuan. They had black tails, extremely long, sharp legs, blood-colored claws, a gigantic stone ax... There were also vines, tentacles, and stingers that ambushed from underground! The vines and tentacles were to restrain Meng Chuan while the stinger headed towards Meng Chuan’s chest.

This was only because Meng Chuan’s build was small. Behind him were five Godfiends. They could only attack from another direction. The maximum number of demon monarchs that could attack him was 12. Three of them were elites. They were on par with Shi Xiu and Mu Qing in strength.

“Be careful.”

“Junior Brother Meng, be careful.” The five other Godfiends were alarmed. Although they had expected the demons to target Meng Chuan, going to such lengths was crazy. There were only seven demon monarch elites, and only four were good at melee combat. Now, three of them had attacked Meng Chuan?

Zhang Yunhu removed two blood-colored short spears from his back. These were the weapons he used for melee combat.

In terms of melee combat, he was the strongest. However, he was stronger when it came to long-range attacks.

On the surface, three Godfiends were protected by Meng Chuan, Mu Qing, and Shi Xiu. But in reality, Zhang Yunhu and Yu Chiyan could engage in close combat at critical moments. Only Yang Xingwu was not good at close combat.

Oh? Yu Chiyan pulled out the soft sword at her waist and cast an illusion to influence the demon monarchs directly. Although she couldn’t control them, the affected demon monarchs could only unleash 40 to 50 percent of their strength. Those with strong wills were affected as well; they ended up being weakened by 10 to 20 percent. Only by condensing an Essence Soul could they completely withstand her illusions.

Meng Chuan was fully focused on facing the attacks. His perception domain spanned 200 feet, causing the chaotic battlefield to be extremely clear to him. He knew which attacks to block first.

Black baneful aura billowed out from Meng Chuan, affecting the demon monarchs. Their attacks were weakened slightly. Following that, saber beams bloomed like flowers.

Suddenly, eight Meng Chuans appeared, making it difficult for the demon monarchs to identify his true body! This was because every figure was real! Since he was so fast, he could seemingly split into eight. It was as though he was attacking from eight different spots. He executed the Red Lotus Stance to block the attacks.

The 12 demon monarchs’ attacks were all blocked. Meng Chuan made for an impregnable defense.

“What?”

“This...”

“He managed to block it?”

The 12 demon monarchs were somewhat astonished. As the saying goes, two fists are not the match of four arms. Just one mistake from Meng Chuan would allow the 12 demon monarchs to continue their onslaught of attacks. However, Meng Chuan’s defense was flawless. He didn’t counterattack. He purely defended!

After defending his side, Yang Xingwu, Yu Chiyan, and Zhang Yunhu were not affected at all.

“Junior Brother Meng’s defensive skills are better than mine. Only Fan Cheng can compete with him in North River Pass.” Zhang Yunhu put away the two blood-colored short spears and took out an ordinary short spear. Instantly, he threw out the spear. The short spear transformed into a golden beam that streaked across the sky as it shot towards an ox demon monarch a mere 60 feet away! It was dangerous when the enemy was right in front of them, but it was also easier for them to kill the demon monarchs!
