Chapter 301 - Candidates (1/2)

In Grotto-Heaven Pavilion’s courtyard, Supremacy Li Guan, an illusory Supremacy Qin Wu, and an illusory Supremacy Luo Tang gathered.

“Are we really sending Meng Chuan in this time?” asked Luo Tang. “More and more demon monarchs are entering our human world. Meng Chuan can hunt quite a number of demon monarchs while carrying out his daily underground reconnaissance. If we send him into the World Gap, it will mean a full year of not having someone that can efficiently hunt down demon monarchs. He can kill tens of thousands of demon monarchs within a year.”

“We shouldn’t only be looking at the present, but the future!” said Qin Wu. “Although Meng Chuan can’t carry out underground reconnaissance for a year and we will miss out on killing tens of thousands of demon monarchs, he can become a Regis G.o.dfiend faster if he cultivates in the World Gap! If he can reach the Blood Droplet realm, the range of his underground reconnaissance technique will increase greatly. As a Regis G.o.dfiend, he will be much faster than he is now. He’d probably finish sweeping through the Great Zhou Dynasty’s underground in a year. It’ll only take him a few years to sweep through the entire world. With such strength, he will be able to single-handedly hunt down more demon monarchs than all other G.o.dfiends in the world combined.”

“I agree with Qin Wu’s idea. A beard lathered is half shaved. Once Meng Chuan reaches the Blood Droplet realm, he will be of great help to humanity,” said Li Guan.

“But his talent in saber arts isn’t too high.” Luo Tang shook her head and sighed. “Senior Brother, when you guided him on Archean Mountain a few days ago, he only attained Greater Mastery of Saber Dao. He has been a Marquis G.o.dfiend for 13 years, but he still only has Greater Mastery of Saber Dao. He’s still quite far from reaching the peak of the Realm of Dao. There’s no need to even mention going from the peak of the Realm of Dao to the Dharma Domain realm.

“Based on previous generations of Regis G.o.dfiends’ cultivation speed, it typically takes them 15 years to reach the peak of the Realm of Dao. From the peak of the Realm of Dao to the Dharma Domain realm, it usually takes one about 30 years. This is the average standard. From the looks of it, he’s slower than average,” said Luo Tang.

“We knew long ago that he wasn’t considered a peerless genius when it came to saber arts, but he’s quite lucky. After obtaining the physical body cultivation system, his body will maintain peak vitality until he’s 200 years old. He can still become a Regis G.o.dfiend,” said Qin Wu. “His speed and his talent in underground reconnaissance… We have to pay the price to make him a Regis G.o.dfiend as soon as possible, even if we have to throw resources at him.”

“He has to become a Regis G.o.dfiend in 50 years.” Li Guan nodded. “Although his talent is lacking, it’s not burdensome to throw resources at him until he becomes a Regis G.o.dfiend. As for him becoming a Creation Supremacy? That’s unlikely.”

“Becoming a Regis G.o.dfiend is enough.” Qin Wu smiled and said, “When he becomes a Regis G.o.dfiend, he will be ten times more useful than King White Treasure. He alone can hunt all the demon monarchs in the world, exceeding all other G.o.dfiends. His Essence Soul talent may also bring us a pleasant surprise.” “Alright.” Luo Tang nodded. “Let him take a spot then. I hope he can become a Regis G.o.dfiend within 50 years.”

Five G.o.dfiends, including Meng Chuan, had gathered in Grotto-Heaven Pavillion’s hall. Meng Chuan, Yan Chitong, and Xue Feng were close to each other. They had a good relations.h.i.+p.

“Senior Brother Meng, thank you very much for what happened at Eastcalm City.” Yan Chitong sat by his side, feeling rather grateful. “If you hadn’t arrived, my father would probably have died at the hands of that fifth Firmament demon monarch.”

“Fifth Firmament demon monarch?” Xue Feng said in surprise.

“Oh.” Yan Chitong—who was now a handsome young man-couldn’t help but hesitate when he heard Xue Feng’s questioning tone.

“Back then, Archean Mountain had instructed us to keep this news a secret. Not many people know about it,” said King True Martial with a chuckle. “However, the demons have already noticed Meng Chuan’s strength as a top Regis G.o.dfiend. Therefore, it’s fine for you to know. A year ago, when the demons attacked the cities on a large scale, Eastcalm City was attacked by a fifth Firmament demon monarch. Back then, Marquis Purple Rain and Marquis West Sea were in charge of guarding it. At a critical moment, Meng Chuan rushed over to rescue Marquis West Sea and killed the fifth Firmament demon monarch.”

Xue Feng looked at Meng Chuan in shock. “Killed a fifth Firmament demon monarch?”

Meng Chuan was very famous among Marquis G.o.dfiends. This was because his demon monarch-slaying speed in Chu An City was made public. G.o.dfiends had seen it, and a demon monarch had escaped, so his strength had been exposed.

From then on, everybody knew that Marquis Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, had the strength of a Regis G.o.dfiend! The demons even considered Meng Chuan to have the strength of a top Regis G.o.dfiend.

“Senior Brother Meng.” Yan Chitong looked at Meng Chuan gratefully. “I can’t repay you for your kindness. I can only remember it in my heart.”
