Chapter 149 - Slaying (1/2)

Crescent Lake was in Green Mountain Prefecture City. It was shaped like a crescent moon. The lake was roughly 2.5 kilometers long and a kilometer wide.

Green Mountain Prefecture’s Jadesun Palace Lord, w.a.n.g Fucheng, was battling the three-headed demon monarch on the lake. Countless streams of water swirled in the air as they constantly bombarded the three-headed demon monarch. However, the three-headed demon monarch was unfazed by the attacks.

Jumo’s three heads differed in size. The middle head was of average size, while the other two heads were half the average size. Jumo also had six black arms; he held a curved blade in each hand as he constantly attacked w.a.n.g Fucheng.

Every exchange of moves was horrifying; they caused the lake to explode continuously.

w.a.n.g Fucheng held the terrain advantage as he attempted to suppress his opponent with his domain. His sword art was good at defense, but he remained disadvantaged against Jumo.

Hu Xiao had already used forbidden spells to fight against the second Firmament demon monarchs with all his might.

“Palace Lord, I can’t hold on any longer,” said Hu Xiao via voice transmission. “Neither of these demon monarchs are inferior to me. Even with your domain aiding me, I won’t be able to last for much longer.”

“I will die swiftly once the demon monarchs join forces after you die,” said w.a.n.g Fucheng. “We’ll probably die within ten strikes if we try escaping from Crescent Lake.”

Pfft.

A demon monarch’s lightning-fast tail stabbed out. Hu Xiao hurriedly used his left arm to block, but the purple tail pierced through his armor. Hu Xiao’s severed arm flew into the air.

“Kill him.” The second Firmament demon monarchs smiled hideously. With five of them against one person—even if the other party was desperately fighting—they could kill him quickly.

“Ahhh!” Hu Xiao went crazy. He wanted at least one demon monarch to die with him.

“Brother Xiao.” w.a.n.g Fucheng was helpless when he saw this scene. Suddenly, he saw lightning pa.s.sing through the northern horizon.

Swoos.h.!.+

The bolt of lightning flew over from the north. It moved at supersonic speeds. Meng Chuan arrived at Crescent Lake before the explosions, and cheers at the city wall could be heard here.

“That’s…” Jumo and the second Firmament demon monarchs sensed a powerful G.o.dfiend aura rapidly approaching them. At that moment, Meng Chuan’s Quintessential Essence erupted. His G.o.dfiend aura was not concealed at all; it was extremely eye-catching.

The six demon monarchs were alarmed. It hadn’t been long since they attacked Green Mountain Prefecture City. How had a G.o.dfiend arrived so quickly?

A G.o.dfiend is here! w.a.n.g Fucheng and Hu Xiao were delighted by this turn of events.

Meng Chuan—who was covered in lightning—immediately discovered Hu Xiao in a dire situation.

Six demon monarchs? Meng Chuan’s body flashed as he landed on Crescent Lake’s surface. He did not hesitate to draw his saber.

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

Six saber beams instantly erupted from Demon Slayer. Covered in blinding lightning, the saber beams distorted the void, warping s.p.a.ce. The second Firmament demon monarchs were about to dodge, but the saber beams had already reached them by the time they could react. The second Firmament demon monarchs were sliced in half by the saber beams; their bodies fell into the lake, dyeing the water red.

Hu Xiao—who was about to sacrifice himself—looked at the five demon monarch corpses dazedly. He understood that he had survived!

It’s too fast! Jumo realized that the saber beam had distorted the void and instantly closed in on him. After realizing that he couldn’t dodge the saber beam, he raised his six arms to block it.

Bam!

Jumo found the saber beam too overwhelming! It completely crushed his defense!

Two curved blades were sent flying from the impact while the other four curved blades continued to be held. However, Jumo’s hands were covered in blood. His hands were injured by the impact. Blood gushed out from his hands, but he had managed to stay alive.

He defeated me with a single saber beam? Jumo found it unbelievable. Although he had recently reached the third Firmament and had yet to consolidate his strength, his true form was a three-headed magical snake. His bloodline was much stronger than ordinary demon monarchs. As an Archean Mountain disciple, w.a.n.g Fucheng—who was at the peak of the Indestructible realm—was comparable to an ordinary third Firmament demon monarch. However, he was still suppressed by Jumo in a one-on-one battle even though he held the terrain advantage.

Meng Chuan defeated Jumo with a casual saber beam upon arrival.

Oh?

After landing on the lake’s surface, the lightning receded and revealed Meng Chuan’s figure.

Senior Brother Meng! w.a.n.g Fucheng revealed a look of delight. He naturally recognized the genius Archean Mountain disciple that had mastered a Black Metal Sutra move and had a perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body.

Meng Chuan glanced at the three-headed demon monarch in surprise. His brows p.r.i.c.ked up. “It didn’t die?”
