Chapter 254 Fourth-Level Essence Soul

Meng Chuan inspected the changes in his Essence Soul . For the past ten years, his Essence Soul had remained at the third level . He had painted seven portraits that allowed him to seek answers from his inner self . Each finished painting changed his Essence Soul slightly . Today, his Essence Soul had finally undergone a qualitative transformation .

Fourth-level Essence Soul? Meng Chuan revealed a look of anticipation as his heart stirred .

Swoosh .

Another “Meng Chuan” jumped out from his body . He looked like a real person . Fourth-level Essence Soul-Soul Separation? Meng Chuan carefully noted the flaws of separating his Essence Soul from his body . The separated Essence Soul couldn’t withstand wind, sunlight, and rain . His Essence Soul still needed some attachment to his body to continue existing .

Now, I can split a portion of my Essence Soul and seal it in You’er and An’er . This way, I can be more at ease .

Only after attaining a fourth-level Essence Soul could one seal a portion of their Essence Soul into another person or object . Doing this required one to split a portion of their Essence Soul’s Origins . According to records, splitting the Essence Soul into nine was the normal limit . Within this limit, splitting one’s soul wouldn’t affect their intelligence and perception . If one split their Essence Soul into more than nine portions, their Essence Soul would be injured . With weakened intelligence and perception, one’s cultivation path would be much more difficult . Therefore, it was very rare for powerful Godfiends to cast an Essence Soul seal willingly .

Whoosh . Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul returned to his body .

Meng Chuan looked at the painting in front of him and wrote two words on the right-hand corner, “Children’s Joy . ” He smiled and put down the brush before walking out of the study .

COL

Meng You and Meng An sparred in an open area of Lake Heart Pavilion . Meng You’s sword techniques were like mist, fast, and unpredictable .

Meng An’s spear was more direct and straightforward . The spear struck out like a dragon in a more ferocious manner .

Clang!

Meng An swept the end of his spear and blocked Meng You’s sudden sword beam .

“Not bad,” praised Meng Chuan . “You’er’s attack came so suddenly without any warning . An’er, your spear protected you well . You did a good job at offense and defense . ”

Meng You and Meng An stopped and listened respectfully .

Meng Chuan walked over and gently patted the twins’ shoulders . He smiled and said, “Continue training . No matter how much you theorize, it’s impossible for it to be better than actual training . You have to cultivate for at least six hours a day . You can’t relax for even a day . ”

“Yes, Father,” answered Meng You and Meng An obediently .

Meng Chuan nodded . As he patted his children’s shoulders, he separated two portions of his Essence Soul and sealed them on their shoulders .

Once the Essence Soul seal was activated, it would be equivalent to an Essence Soul avatar . However, it would dissipate after a single use . Only after his Essence Soul reached the sixth stage—the Indestructible realm-could his Essence Soul avatars last for a long time . When his Essence Soul reached the seventh stage, he could have up to nine long-lasting Essence Soul avatars .

A seventh-level Essence Soul had all sorts of magical powers . For example, the Essence Soul’s Origins—that was consumed by forming an Essence Soul seal—could be completely restored at the seventh level . Every Essence Soul avatar would have the combat strength of a Regis Godfiend despite only having a single Essence Soul mystic technique . As long as the main body didn’t die, the Essence Soul avatar could be restored after being destroyed .

As for an eighth-level Essence Soul? It was even possible to win the war between humans and demons .

However, in the long history of humans, the strongest Essence Soul was an eighth-level Essence Soul . Only three people had ever attained an eighth-level Essence Soul . There were much fewer people that had attained an eighth-level Essence Soul than those that had become an Imperial Lord .

Meng Chuan left Lake Heart Pavilion and arrived at Jiang State Capital’s Earth Net headquarters .

“Marquis Eastcalm . ”

“Marquis Eastcalm . ” The Godfiends at Earth Net headquarters were extremely respectful when they saw Meng Chuan .

Liu Qiyue also sensed Meng Chuan’s arrival and took the initiative to welcome him . “Ah Chuan, why are you here?”

“Let’s go to Wang Fanchou,” said Meng Chuan .

“Meet Wang Fanchou?” Liu Qiyue was puzzled, but she still led Meng Chuan to the dungeon . In the depths of the dungeon, Wang Fanchou laid imprisoned in a sealed cell . No guard was to come in contact with Wang Fanchou .

Rumble~

The sealed cell door opened . Inside, Wang Fanchou immediately looked up and saw Meng Chuan and his wife walking in . The cell door closed once again . “Marquis Eastcalm, Marchioness Calmmoon, I really didn’t have any intentions of assassinating…” Wang Fanchou explained anxiously . He was also flustered after being imprisoned for a day . “Really?” Meng Chuan looked at him .

“Yes, I’m innocent . ” Wang Fanchou looked at Meng Chuan, but his eyes gradually glazed over . He didn’t say another word .

Meng Chuan looked at him . He cast an Essence Soul mystic technique and easily penetrated Wang Fanchou’s soul . Although he hadn’t reached the Realm of Dao with illusions, he could change memories due to the uniqueness of a fourth-level Essence Soul . Even those that had reached the Realm of Dao with illusions would produce flawed memories when using their illusion techniques . Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul directly modified Wang Fanchou’s in an even more tyrannical manner .

This was very similar to what Qin Wu had done . However, Qin Wu’s means were even more intricate .

Meng Chuan erased memories of Meng You and Meng An from Wang Fanchou’s mind . Then, he used illusions to create fake memories .

“It’s done,” said Meng Chuan . “I’ve changed the memories where he saw You’er and An’er . ”

“Ah Chuan, didn’t you say that you can only temporarily block his memories? Why can you do it now?” Liu Qiyue’s heart stirred .

“I broke through . ” Meng Chuan smiled at his wife .

“You broke through?” Liu Qiyue couldn’t help but whisper, “Fourth level?” Meng Chuan nodded slightly .

Liu Qiyue was shocked . This was because for a Regis Godfiend to reach the Creation realm, one of the requirements was a fifth-level Essence Soul! It was very difficult to describe a fifth-level Essence Soul in books . Creation Supremacies might be very powerful in other aspects, but most of their Essence Souls only reached the fifth level .

Now, Meng Chuan had a fourth-level Essence Soul! He was close to attaining a fifth-level Essence Soul .

“Wang Fanchou . ” Meng Chuan looked at the dazed Wang Fanchou, snapping him awake suddenly .

“Are you aware of the many heinous crimes your grandson, Wang Cong, has committed? Without your protection, how could he have continued committing these crimes to this day?” Meng Chuan sneered . “Many Godfiends are using their lives to protect cities and countless mortals . Is it to allow fools like him to wreak havoc on people?”

Wang Fanchou was drenched in a cold sweat .

It didn’t matter if no one cast their attention on this matter . But if a Marquis Godfiend were to target such matters, there was no way to deny Wang Cong’s crimes . The Imperial Court’s laws and Archean Mountain’s rules were written clearly .

Humph .

Meng Chuan snorted coldly and left with his wife .

After exiting the dungeon, Meng Chuan asked, “The investigations have been going on for a day . Have you found anything?”

“The Skydemon Sect is very careful . We did find some Skydemon Sect spies through Windsay Brothel . As for the big fish? We found nothing . The clues stopped in the middle,” said Liu Qiyue . “On the other hand, we did find out about a lot of things some Godfiend descendants have done . It’s shocking . Some of their crimes are in no way inferior to Wang Cong’s . ”

Liu Qiyue brought Meng Chuan to a room . She pointed at the pile of dossiers on the desk . “These dossiers are the results of the investigation . You can take a look . ”

Meng Chuan picked one up, and his expression changed slightly as he read through it .

Every dossier was stained with a person’s life -blood and injustice .

“They deserve to die . ” Meng Chuan’s eyes were filled with bloodlust . “Are these Godfiend descendants just going to embarrass their ancestors? Godfiends are risking their lives, but these juniors are acting so wantonly?”

“There are many people in Godfiend family clans,” explained Liu Qiyue . “For example, the Meng family has more than 10,000 clansmen . Older Godfiend family clans have tens of thousands of clansmen and even hundreds of thousands of clansmen! With so many of them, it’s natural to have a few bad eggs! They have no future in cultivation, but they have connections . Once they commit evil, they will be far more harmful than ordinary people . ”

“You’ve been guarding Jiang State Capital for the past ten years? Didn’t you do anything about it?” Meng Chuan was infuriated .

Liu Qiyue helplessly said, “I’m in charge of guarding the area . However, the information from Earth Net is directly handled by the Godfiends below . I only make decisions regarding important matters . As for crimes committed by mortals in Jiang State Capital? It’s all handled by the imperial government . Archean Mountain Godfiends normally won’t interfere with mortal matters . After all, the Imperial Court has always been in charge of mortal matters . ”

“You are the guardian of Jiang State Capital . You have the right to take control of the government office directly,” said Meng Chuan .

Liu Qiyue nodded . “Yes, I can forcefully take control of it . ”

“Then take control . Sweep Jiang State Capital ruthlessly,” said Meng Chuan . “Even the government office needs to be raided once . There are probably many parasites in the government office as well . ”

“Sweep through Jiang State Capital?” Liu Qiyue looked at her husband . “There are quite a number of people from Creation Godfiend family clans, the imperial family, and Regis Godfiend family clans in the city . ”

“We Godfiends are risking our lives to kill demon monarchs and protect an entire area,” said Meng Chuan angrily . “We’re protecting them with our lives . We can’t let them spit on our efforts like this . ”
