Chapter 60: There Are Other Godfiends?

Meng Chuan arrived at the critical moment and killed Commander Wyrm in one strike . While this was happening, another scene was playing out in Eastcalm Prefecture’s Jadesun Palace .

Jadesun Palace had already been reduced to ruins . The battle between the Godfiends and demon monarchs was simply horrifying . All the buildings in Jadesun Palace had collapsed . Even the prisons that housed demons had been destroyed . The imprisoned demons were reduced to meat paste, before being turned into pools of blood .

There was not a single bone left, only blood .

Boom!

Yun Wanhai was sent flying backward by a blow, and deep ravines appeared on the ground . His body was surrounded by purple flames, making him look like a flame god . However, he couldn’t help but cough out blood as he lay within the ravine . His blood—filled with dying violet flames—sprayed onto the soil .

“Die!” A black beam flashed as a black-furred ape swung its pole at Yun Wanhai .

Fairy Meng—who was standing a distance away—hurriedly waved her hand with a solemn expression . An illusory hand appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the heavily injured Yun Wanhai, pulling him away . It caused the Demon Monarch Ape’s pole to slam into the ground . The ensuing boom was like a thunderclap in spring . It left behind a huge crater over 100-feet wide . As for Yun Wanhai, he was rapidly sent flying thanks to the yank . He had only been a foot away from being hit by the terrifying pole .

When he flew to Fairy Meng’s side, Yun Wanhai whispered, “Fairy, you saved my life . ” With that said, he couldn’t help but cough out blood .

Fairy Meng didn’t think too much of it . She looked up into the sky with a solemn expression . Invisible waves constantly emanated from her as she influenced the three demon monarchs in a bid to help Palace Lord Jadesun .

At that moment, Palace Lord Jadesun’s body began glowing . His palms were like jade sculptures . All his fighting prowess were in that pair of hands—fist arts, palm arts, claw arts, finger arts… They were undeniably mystical! He withstood three demon monarchs head-on single-handedly . There was Demon Monarch Domineering Roar—who was over a 100-feet tall and had immense strength . He also fought against a demon monarch that used poison and the third Firmament demon monarch, Whitesink .

It was also because he had been going all out . Otherwise, he would’ve long been doomed if he relied on the heavily injured Fairy Meng and Yun Wanhai!

Following the mid-air clash, Palace Lord Jadesun fell to the ground and staggered a few steps back . When he reached Fairy Meng and company, his pale face instantly returned to normal .

“Can you still hold on?” Palace Lord Jadesun looked at Yun Wanhai .

“Now that I’ve used a forbidden Godfiend spell, I can only continue for another ten seconds,” Yun Wanhai said in a low voice . “After that, I will be smashed to death by that Demon Monarch Ape . ”

“Palace Lord . ” Fairy Meng said immediately, “Yun Wanhai’s injuries are too serious . ”

Palace Lord Jadesun knew that too . The enemy’s strength was beyond his expectations . Amongst the four demon monarchs, the second Firmament demon monarchs were all extraordinary, much less the third Firmament Whitesink .

As for their side?

Fairy Meng had hidden injuries, so she could only cast her domain by the side . This was the best way for Fairy Meng to be of use in this battle . Yun Wanhai was able to take some of the heat off him . But when Demon Monarch Ape and Demon Monarch Domineering Roar joined forces, they completely crushed Yun Wanhai . In just a short clash, Yun Wanhai was nearly beaten to death despite using a forbidden Godfiend spell .

Even though he was lucky not to have died, he was still severely injured . He wouldn’t be of much use in the battle .

Palace Lord Jadesun had to face the combined assault of four demon monarchs . This snuffed out any hope .

“The entire Eastcalm Prefecture is under attack, but we have no solution at all,” Yun Wanhai said via voice transmission . “Are we just going to stall for time?”

“I’ve already requested for reinforcements from the Wu State’s State City and Archean Mountain,” Palace Lord Jadesun said via voice transmission . “Right now, we can only hope for some powerful Godfiends that are fairly close to Eastcalm Prefecture to rescue us in time . Otherwise, the entire Eastcalm Prefecture will be reduced to rubble . ”

“Strange . ” Fairy Meng sent a voice transmission . “Why have the four demon monarchs stopped?”

Yun Wanhai and Palace Lord Jadesun were equally astonished .

The Godfiends had been at a disadvantage the entire battle, and the demon monarchs had the upper hand . Logically speaking, the demon monarchs should be seizing every moment to kill the three Godfiends . Why did they stop?

…

The four demon monarchs had stopped temporarily because something very important had happened .

“Demon Monarch Whitesink . ” Demon Monarch Ape, Demon Monarch Domineering Roar, and Demon Monarch Poison Pool looked at the army’s leader, Demon Monarch Whitesink .

“What happened?” asked Domineering Roar with a voice transmission .

Whitesink took out a token from his chest, and his gaze swept around . With a voice transmission, he said, “This token was bestowed to me by the Mountain Lord . It can be used to commandeer the entire army . At the same time, this token can sense the 18 commanders’ tokens . I am certain that 9 of the 18 Commanders have already died . ”

“Half of them died?” Amidst the black fog, Poison Pool was extremely shocked .

“That’s impossible . ” Ape couldn’t help but say, “These commanders are virtually invincible in the mortal realm . Their opponents are all human mortals . It’s very difficult for them to die in battle . How can half of them die in battle so quickly?”

“The moment the invasion began, I quickly sensed the death of two commanders,” said Whitesink through a voice transmission . “But back then, we had to deal with the three Godfiends from Jadesun Palace . I didn’t want you to be distracted, so I didn’t mention it . But following that, I sensed commanders dying one after another . Just a moment ago, I sensed that in the southeastern and northern regions, three commanders died in quick succession within seconds . Now, we have already lost nine commanders . I have to mention that if this continues, I’m afraid all eighteen commanders will die . ”

“How could this be? How did the commanders die to mortals so easily? How did nine commanders get killed so easily?” The other three demon monarchs turned anxious as well .

Ape frowned . “We weren’t in a hurry to finish the battle with the Godfiends in Jadesun Palace because we were confident that the demon army could flatten Eastcalm Prefecture . If it turns out that our demon army is destroyed, what’s the point of us fighting here?”

“There’s only one possibility for nine commanders to be killed . ” Whitesink’s eyes were cold as he sent a voice transmission . “There are other Godfiends in Eastcalm Prefecture City . There might even be more than one of them . These Godfiends in hiding are recklessly slaughtering the demons . ”

The three demon monarchs agreed . If one demon commander had died, it could be blamed on humans relying on traps and killing a commander through body count .

To have nine die in a short period of time, all they could think of was one possibility—a Godfiend had taken action .

“They don’t dare to help Palace Lord Jadesun fight us . It shows that they aren’t strong enough . They are likely newly advanced Godfiends who have just broken through . They are very young, weak Godfiends,” said Whitesink with a voice transmission . “Demon Monarch Poison Pool, take my token and set off quickly . Head to the demon commanders who are still alive! Once you discover a Godfiend, kill them immediately . ”

“Alright, I’ll go over . ” The black fog-shrouded Poison Pool stretched out his iridescent green arm and took the token . “If it’s a new Godfiend, I’ll definitely be able to kill them easily . ”

Those that were chosen by Mountain Lord Nine Convocation were rather powerful second Firmament demons .

Swoosh .

He rapidly flew southeast with his black fog .

…

Yun Wanhai, Fairy Meng, and Palace Lord Jadesun took the opportunity to consume pills to heal as quickly as possible . However, their expressions changed slightly when they saw a demon monarch shrouded in black fog leaving .

“Why did the demon monarch leave?” Fairy Meng’s heart tightened . She was most worried about the hope of her family—Meng Chuan . But now, she couldn’t afford to think too much . The remaining three demon monarchs were charging over again .

“Kill them . ” Demon Monarch Whitesink and the other two were clearly more desperate than before . They were now worried about the demon army . If the demon army was slaughtered and they lost the war, Mountain Lord Nine Convocation would severely punish them .

Boom!

Palace Lord Jadesun once again clashed with them . Only he could resist them! If he couldn’t hold them back, both Fairy Meng and Yun Wanhai—who were seriously injured—would be instantly torn apart .
