Chapter 151

At the northern city wall, the general in charge of the city wall came to Wang Fucheng’s side and bowed respectfully . “Palace Lord . ”

“Where’s the Godfiend who dealt with the demons?” asked Wang Fucheng .

“After the Lord turned all the demons into ice sculptures, he transformed into lightning and headed north . ” The general pointed at a dark mountain outside the city .

“Okay . ” Wang Fucheng nodded slightly and jumped off the city wall . He headed towards the mountain as a blurry stream of light .

Wang Fucheng arrived at the barren mountain by following the demons’ tracks . When he saw the distorted World Entrance that was 1000 feet long, he immediately looked around in puzzlement .

“Junior Brother Wang . ” After Meng Chuan spoke, he jumped down from the tree and landed on the ground .

Wang Fucheng smiled when he saw Meng Chuan . He walked over with a smile, and said, “Senior Brother Meng, I rushed over to meet you after I finished my work in the city . I don’t know how many people would’ve died in Green Mountain Prefecture City if it weren’t for you . ”

“It’s nothing . ” Meng Chuan shook his head and asked, “What losses did Green Mountain Prefecture City suffer?”

“Some people were implicated when the demon monarchs entered the city,” said Wang Fucheng . “A few hundred people died . ”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly . That was already a low casualty count! If the demon monarchs had defeated the Godfiends, the entire city would be reduced to ruins . Hundreds of thousands of people would die; it would be tragic!

Meng Chuan had witnessed the destruction of a city when he was six, which was why he never showed mercy to the demons .

“Speaking of which, Junior Brother Wang, it’s been almost five years since you left Archean Mountain . ” Meng Chuan didn’t continue talking about the losses .

“Yes . ” Wang Fucheng nodded and said, “After I left the mountain, I was first stationed at Calm Sea Pass for three years . Since King Calm Sea was around, it was relatively safe . Senior Brother Meng, your strength far exceeds ours . Were you deployed to a medium-sized city pass?”

“North River Pass . ” Meng Chuan didn’t hide anything .

“Among our fellow disciples, most of the powerful Great Solar Godfiends are stationed at medium-sized city passes,” said Wang Fucheng wistfully .

Meng Chuan nodded . Archean Mountain’s Great Solar Godfiends had different levels of strength . For top experts like Zhang Yunhu—who had reached the Realm of Dao—they were very close to becoming Darkstar Godfiends . Mu Qing and Fan Cheng—who was extremely talented—were both at the Realm of Soul’s peak . Yu Chiyan, Shi Xiu, and Yang Xingwu had Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul . One cultivated the Mirage Fiend Body, another cultivated the Sanguine Divine Body, and the last was skilled with domains . They all played important roles on the battlefield .

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were peerless geniuses . They had achieved Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul and had perfected transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies . Their roles on the battlefield were no less important than Zhang Yunhu’s! They were stationed at a medium-sized city pass the moment they descended Archean Mountain .

Most of Archean Mountain’s top Great Solar Godfiends went to medium-sized city passes . The remaining Godfiends went to Earth Net .

For the Great Solar Godfiends that had just reached the Realm of Soul, they typically guarded small cities .

Wang Fucheng shook his head and said, “I have to attain Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul before I can go to a medium-sized city pass . I’m still at the Realm of Intent’s peak and haven’t become a Great Solar Godfiend . ”

“You’ve only left the mountain for five years . It usually takes people ten to twenty years to become a Great Solar Godfiend after leaving the mountain,” said Meng Chuan . “Alright, you should hurry back . Green Mountain Prefecture City needs you . When an Archean Mountain Godfiend arrives, you will need to receive him . ”

“Senior Brother, I’ll be troubling you to take care of this area then,” said Wang Fucheng before leaving .

Meng Chuan retracted his aura and silently waited for a Godfiend—that would take over his current job—on a nearby tree .

…

Green Mountain Prefecture city was currently in an uproar . The government office had sent out a series of orders . The entire city knew that the demons had been defeated and that they had won! They were completely safe, and everybody could leave the tunnels now .

“What? We won?”

In a Dao Academy’s castle, the Dao Academy dean, lecturers, soldiers, many retired veterans, and a group of disciples—that had reached the Marrow Cleansing realm—were somewhat stunned .

“Logically speaking, the city wall can’t hold the demons for too long . The demons will storm the city, and citizens will have to fend for themselves . ” A lecturer holding a spear was filled with delight . “I never expected that all of our efforts were wasted . We won without even needing to risk our lives . The demons have completely lost!”

“Since the demons dared to attack, they should have confidence in defeating our Green Mountain Prefecture City’s Godfiends . ” A middle-aged woman who had two swords on her back sighed in amazement . “We’ve won without the city being destroyed . There must be a special reason . Could it be that a powerful Godfiend lives in our Green Mountain Prefecture City?”

“Powerful Godfiends patrol the world, and they might appear in any city . It’s also possible for them to appear in Green Mountain Prefecture . ”

“Haha, this is a blessing for our Green Mountain Prefecture City . It’s a blessing for Green Mountain Prefecture!”

Everyone laughed extremely happily . Those who had served in the military knew how difficult it was to fight demons! When a horde of demons surged over, humans needed to risk their lives as they defended .

…

All the important areas—six Dao Academies, four Godfiend family clan residences, and the government armory—in Green Mountain Prefecture City had forces stationed nearby .

After all, demons arrived very quickly . Most mortal soldiers in the city would have to travel over ten kilometers to reach the northern city wall . By the time they arrived, the city walls would have long been destroyed . Therefore, the soldiers and veterans they were close to the city walls were responsible for protecting them . People in other areas of the city relied on the terrain to fight the demons . They had to stall for time so that reinforcements could come . Only then could they achieve victory .

Everybody had been prepared to sacrifice themselves . However, they won without even seeing the demons .

“Let’s go . Let’s go to the north gate and see what happened . ”

“How did we defeat the demons?”

“I wonder how many demons attacked our Green Mountain Prefecture City . ”

Although they knew they had won, many people couldn’t help but rush towards the north gate .

The city gates remained closed, but people could still head up the city wall and take a look . Everybody was shocked when they saw the frozen demons .

Thirty thousand demon ice sculptures were truly a sight to behold . Many soldiers that had served in the military had never seen 30,000 frozen demons .

…

An hour after the demon invasion, an Archean Mountain Godfiend arrived .

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two figures came to Crescent Lake . Wang Fucheng was waiting there when he saw a thin man and an elder .

“Senior Brother Qu . ” Wang Fucheng immediately greeted one of them . He only knew the thin man, but he didn’t know the elder’s identity .

“Okay . ” The thin man glanced at the demon monarchs’ corpses before asking, “Who killed the demon monarchs?”

“Senior Brother Meng was passing by and saved the entire city,” said Wang Fucheng .

“Oh?” The thin man nodded slightly . “Where’s Senior Brother Meng?”

“About three kilometers north of the city . He’s watching the World Entrance,” said Wang Fucheng .

“Brother Guo, handle the demon monarchs’ corpses . I’ll watch over the World Entrance,” said the thin man . In terms of strength, he was slightly stronger than the elder .

“Alright . ” The elder smiled .

The thin man’s figure vanished as he headed north .

…

On the barren mountain, the thin man met Meng Chuan .

“Senior Brother Meng,” said the thin man politely .

“Senior Brother Qu?” Meng Chuan had not seen him before . After all, Qu had left the mountain over 30 years ago . However, he had memorized the faces of every single Archean Mountain disciple .

1At Archean Mountain, if both parties had similar strength, both parties addressed each other as senior brothers or senior sisters . This was a form of respect for each other .

North River Pass was different . Everyone at North River Pass were teammates that had fought life-and-death battles together . Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were rookies, so they addressed everyone else as senior brothers and sisters .

“Many of our fellow disciples haven’t returned to the mountain in a long time, but we’ve heard your name,” said the thin man with a smile . “A perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body and the mastery of a Black Metal Sutra move . You are already stronger than us who have left the mountain for decades . ”

“I just left the mountain . I can’t compare with the contributions and achievements all my seniors have made in the decades after they left the mountain,” said Meng Chuan .

“Haha . ” The thin man flipped his hand and took out a purple token . On it was the word “Seeker . ” “Senior Brother Meng, let’s get down to business first . From now on, the World Entrance will be taken over by our Earth Net . ”

“Alright . ” Meng Chuan nodded .

Earth Net…

Roughly 30 percent of Archean Mountain’s Godfiends were in Earth Net . They were in charge of pursuing demons and the Skydemon Sect, and to search for new World Entrances .

Earth Net even commandeered the imperial government’s intelligence network . Countless mortals served it .

The Seeker position was also a part of Earth Net! However, it was a more special role than a Patroller . Most Seekers were Marquis and Regis Godfiends . Earth Net was a very powerful organization, so they could easily deal with many demons and demon monarchs . Whenever they encountered demon monarchs and Skydemons they couldn’t deal with, they would seek reinforcements . A Patroller would rush over and kill the powerful demon monarchs and Skydemons .
