<h4>Chapter 174: The Fourth Firmament Skydemon’s Pursuit</h4>


    ckwater Pce Lord walked through the rain. As Skydemon Sect’s ckwater lineage’s most aplished 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 wille true. ckwater Pce Lord’s eyes were filled with anticipation. 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 be 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 Godfiends wouldpletely vanish, and the Skydemon lineage would be the only human heritage.


    We don’t have to hide in the darkness forever. ckwater Pce 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 Godfiends—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 Godfiends.


    We will truly rule over humanity. Furthermore, humans will be one of the Hundred Races, a part of the demons. ckwater Pce Lord walked barefoot in the rain.


    With a wave of his hand, a stream of water flew out and pierced through three Godfiends in the distance! The three Godfiends’ eyes were filled with despair and disbelief. They knew that many Godfiends 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.


    ckwater didn’t spare another nce at the three Godfiends and continued walking.


    Demon Monarch Cat is dead? ckwater Pce Lord looked into the distance and frowned slightly. He immediately moved towards Demon Monarch Cat’sst known location.


    Through his token, Meng Chuan had noticed three Godfiends had died simultaneously. Therefore, he had used the Power of Essence Soul to kill Demon Monarch Cat quickly before rushing over.


    The lightning bolt rushed through the rain at an astonishing speed.


    Huh? ckwater Pce Lord saw the blurry figure within the lightning. For a Great Sr Godfiend to have the speed of a fifth Firmament demon monarch, that must be Archean Mountain’s Meng Chuan. The corners of ckwater Pce Lord’s lips curled up slightly. I’ve reeled in a big fish! This big fish is ordinary in every other aspect, but his speed is astonishing. I can’t scare him away.


    ckwater Pce Lord took the initiative to meet the bolt of lightning.


    The distance between the two rapidly shrank. Meng Chuan didn’t notice ckwater Pce 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 Godfiends reigned in their auraspletely, 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 Godfiends if they were within 200 feet of him.


    It was the same for ckwater Pce Lord. He hadpletely 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 Godfiends, it’s probably a demon monarch with a divine power. It might even be a terrifying fourth Firmament existence. Meng Chuan held Demon yer in his hand and rushed towards the dead Godfiends. Although in a hurry, he moved cautiously. However, he didn’t know that the ckwater Pce Lord was already very close to him.


    Now’s the time. ckwater Pce Lord and Meng Chuan moved towards each other. Thetter moved at an astonishing speed while the former suddenly increased his speed. With a flip of his hands, ckwater Pce 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!


    ckwater Pce 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 assant clearly.


    A bald, ck-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.


    He could die! If he couldn’t withstand the attack, he would definitely die! The Diamond Body only matched the strength of a Great Sr Godfiend. Although it was tough and powerful, a fourth Firmament Skydemon was attacking him with immense killing intent. If ckwater Pce Lord struck Meng Chuan in a vital point like the head, he would die instantly even with the Diamond Body.


    Boom!


    The attack was too sudden! It was too close!


    Meng Chuan didn’t even have time to use a forbidden Godfiend spell. He could only fuse the Power Of Essence Soul with his body and Great Sr Quintessential Essence, and unleash his full strength!


    Red Lotus Stance! Meng Chuan used all his strength as he tried to change the direction in which he was moving.


    The advantage of fusing the Power of Essence Soul with his body and Quintessential Essence was that one he perceived a threat with his perception domain, his Essence Soul could react ordingly. Once this fusion had urred, he no longer relied on his nerves to control his body. Instead, his Essence Soul would control his body and Quintessential Essence directly. This caused his reaction speed to be extremely fast.


    However, even though he reacted extremely quickly, he barely managed to execute the Red Lotus Stance.


    ng!


    The Water Splitter stabbed at Demon yer.


    I blocked it! Before Meng Chuan could rejoice, he felt Demon yer being pushed to the side. That terrifying mightpletely crushed him.


    In terms of move profundity, his opponent’s attack exceeded his Red Lotus Stance. In terms of strength, he was crushed overwhelmingly.


    However, Meng Chuan’s best trait—his speed—showed its usefulness at the critical moment. Although his opponent stood above him in every other aspect, although he could taste the blood in his mouth, he borrowed his opponent’s strength to retreat!


    Pfft. The Water Splitter still pierced through Meng Chuan’s dark-cyan robe, but Meng Chuan had already retreated rapidly.


    Huh? ckwater Pce Lord was somewhat astonished. His attack hadn’t just been him thrusting Water Splitter with his right hand; he had also thrust the Water Splitter in his left hand secretly! However, Meng Chuan’s rapid retreat caused the attack to miss.


    ckwater Pce Lord instantly changed moves. With the Water Splitter in his left hand, he struck out with all his might. With a boom, the Water Splitter caused the void to distort as ckwater Pce Lord charged at Meng Chuan.


    The retreating Meng Chuan instinctively swung his saber to block the attack, producing a loud ng. The Water Splitter was surrounded by water, so even though it was blocked, ckwater Pce Lord’s attack still struck Meng Chuan’s chest. Meng Chuan was unable to use his movement technique to divert the force.


    Meng Chuan flew backward at an even faster speed.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    He charged through the residences and trees behind him!


    Cough! Cough! Cough! Meng Chuan spat out mouthfuls of blood as he fell into the ruins. His robe had beenpletely torn apart. His inner armor had caved in; cracks could be seen on it. Luckily, his inner armor hadn’t shattered. However, the attack’s impact left Meng Chuan’s organs extremely ufortable. Thankfully, I have the Diamond Body. Otherwise, my Godfiend body organs would be crushed by the impact. I would have died.


    Meng Chuan immediately sensed that the bald, ck-robed ckwater Pce Lord’s blurry figure was approaching and delivering another attack.


    ckwater Pce Lord’s voice rang out. “You aren’t dead?”


    At the same time, a gigantic ck tail streaked across the sky. The tail carried force much more ferocious than the Water Splitter. It swept towards Meng Chuan in a bid to pulverize him.
