Chapter 174 - The Fourth Firmament Skydemons Pursuit (1/2)

Blackwater Palace Lord walked through the rain. As Skydemon Sect’s Blackwater lineage’s most accomplished person, he liked the rain a lot.

He still remembered that he had once killed all his enemies—an entire family—in heavy rain and was wanted by the imperial government. As a result, he joined the Skydemon Sect.

Soon… The demons’ advantage is growing. It won’t take long before my Skydemon Sect’s dream will come true. Blackwater Palace Lord’s eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation. The demons’ Imperial Lord has sent a Demon Sacred Monument to Skydemon Sect from beyond the heavens.

The sacred monument contains the promise between the demons and the Skydemon Sect. It states that humans will become one of the demon race’s Hundred Races. The demons’ Imperial Lord would then give ten percent of the human realm to the Skydemon Sect forever, allowing the Skydemon Sect to rule over the humans for all eternity. The G.o.dfiends would completely vanish, and the Skydemon lineage would become the only human heritage.

We don’t have to hide in the darkness forever. Blackwater Palace Lord naturally didn’t want to keep hiding like a mouse. He was clearly a fourth Firmament Skydemon. What kind of power and status did Marquis G.o.dfiends—that were on the same level as him—enjoy? Yet, Skydemons had to live in fear. They had to live underground because they were likely to be discovered by patrolling G.o.dfiends.

We will truly rule over humanity. Furthermore, humans will become one of the Hundred Races, a part of the demons. Blackwater Palace Lord walked barefoot in the rain.

With a wave of his hand, a stream of water flew out and pierced through three G.o.dfiends in the distance! The three G.o.dfiends’ eyes were filled with despair and disbelief. They knew that many G.o.dfiends had died in battle while defending against the demons. They also knew that one day, they might die in battle. However, they never expected to die before even seeing the demons.

Blackwater didn’t spare another glance at the three G.o.dfiends and continued walking.

Demon Monarch Cat is dead? Blackwater Palace Lord looked into the distance and frowned slightly. He immediately moved towards Demon Monarch Cat’s last known location.

Through his token, Meng Chuan had noticed three G.o.dfiends had died simultaneously. Therefore, he had used the Power of Essence Soul to kill Demon Monarch Cat quickly before rus.h.i.+ng over.

The lightning bolt rushed through the rain at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed.

Huh? Blackwater Palace Lord saw the blurry figure within the lightning. For a Great Solar G.o.dfiend to have the speed of a fifth Firmament demon monarch, that must be Archean Mountain’s Meng Chuan. The corners of Blackwater Palace Lord’s lips curled up slightly. I’ve reeled in a big fis.h.!.+ This big fish is ordinary in every other aspect, but his speed is astonis.h.i.+ng. I can’t scare him away.

Blackwater Palace Lord took the initiative to meet the bolt of lightning.

The distance between the two rapidly shrank. Meng Chuan didn’t notice Blackwater Palace Lord even when they were less than half a kilometer from each other. Meng Chuan could perceive auras within a kilometer of himself, but his sensory ability wasn’t omnipotent. He had known this since he had been on Archean Mountain.

As long as Marquis and Regis G.o.dfiends reigned in their auras completely, he wouldn’t be able to detect them with his Essence Soul. It was as though they didn’t exist in the world. With his second-level Essence Soul, Meng Chuan would only discover Marquis and Regis G.o.dfiends if they were within 200 feet of him.

It was the same for Blackwater Palace Lord. He had completely disappeared. One could not see him with the naked eye! Nor could one sense his aura!

It’s in this direction! If the enemy can instantly kill G.o.dfiends, it’s probably a demon monarch with a divine power. It might even be a terrifying fourth Firmament existence. Meng Chuan held Demon Slayer in his hand and rushed towards the dead G.o.dfiends. Although in a hurry, he moved cautiously. However, he didn’t know that the Blackwater Palace Lord was already very close to him.

Now’s the time. Blackwater Palace Lord and Meng Chuan moved towards each other. The latter moved at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed while the former suddenly increased his speed. With a flip of his hands, Blackwater Palace Lord held a Water Splitter in each hand. This was the first time he had used a weapon since he entered the Jiang State Capital. Meng Chuan was worthy of him using his weapon.

Boom!

Blackwater Palace Lord—who had transformed into a blurry phantom—naturally couldn’t conceal his aura after his sudden increase in speed.

What? Meng Chuan—who had been traveling at high speed—suddenly noticed an aura fluctuation roughly 500 feet away. As they moved towards each other, the enemy appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Meng Chuan’s speed was being used against him by the other party.

Meng Chuan could sense all things within 200 feet of him, which meant he could sense his a.s.sailant clearly.

A bald, black-robed man thrust a Water Splitter towards Meng Chuan. The Water Splitter seemed to pierce through the void. Meng Chuan felt a chill after sensing the attack’s might with his perception domain.
