Chapter 230: Eruption

“Realm of Dao?” Meng Chuan looked at his wife and couldn’t help but feel delighted. Now that the world was chaotic, he naturally hoped for his wife to become stronger.

“It’s all thanks to that phoenix feather you gave me, Ah Chuan,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “Ever since I absorbed the phoenix feather’s power, my bloodline has become purer, and my affinity with fire has grown. I finally reached the Realm of Dao today.”

Meng Chuan nodded and smiled. “Continue working hard. Quickly condense an Essence Soul and become a Marquis Godfiend.”

“The phoenix flames have the power of life. They can heal me and nurture the Essence Soul,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “Even if I don’t seek answers from my inner self, I will naturally nurture an Essence Soul in a decade or two.”

“That’s too slow. Work hard to condense an Essence Soul in three years,” said Meng Chuan.

“Alright.” Liu Qiyue smiled and nodded. However, she knew that condensing an Essence Soul wasn’t easy.

…

In a village fort.

“Clan Leader, our Earth Net is spread throughout the world. I can tell you with certainty that demon monarch attacks on village forts will become more and more common. Thousands of people are gathered in village forts. The demon monarchs will definitely target them first. Therefore, give up the village forts and move out. Let the clansmen live separately.” An Earth Net officer tried to persuade the people living here to leave.

The clan leader and several clan elders looked at each other.

“Our Li clan has lived here for more than a thousand years. How can we give up our ancestral land so easily?”

“There have been very few demon monarch attacks recently. If the demon monarchs come, we can hide in the tunnels until the Godfiends rescue us.”

“Where are we going to stay after leaving the village fort? Can we enter the cities?”

The clan leader and elders spoke one after another.

The Earth Net officer sighed. “The prices of land and houses in the city are getting higher and higher. If you want to move to the city, you will have to rely on yourself. My suggestion for moving out is to live separately… A large village fort will be divided into hundreds of small villages. We are currently persuading various village forts to move. Quite a few have started moving.

“The number of demon monarchs is ultimately fewer than mortals. There are occasional attacks in a county. It’s even less likely for them to attack a small village. This is the only solution,” advised the Earth Net officer.

“Small village? Does that mean we have to leave things up to fate? Being targeted by a demon monarch means death,” said an elder.

“In a county, there are tens of thousands of small villages scattered everywhere. The chances of encountering a demon monarch are very low,” said the Earth Net officer. “This is already the safest solution. In fact, the more scattered you are, the lower the chances of being attacked. The more people that gather, the likelier it is to encounter a demon monarch. Demon monarchs will easily slaughter you if you stay as a large group.

“It’ll be difficult for demon monarchs to find you if thousands of people are scattered everywhere. Staying here will just quicken the slaughter,” said the Earth Net officer. “Against demon monarchs, village forts are useless. They’re just large graveyards.”

…

“Let’s move. Archean Mountain has its reasons for persuading the various village forts. Let’s move first. If we discover that it’s not as dangerous as Archean Mountain says, we’ll move back. I believe no one will occupy our fort.”

“Let’s move.”

…

“Young people should leave. I’m already so old. I’ll die in our ancestral land.”

“Us old fogies aren’t moving too.”

…

For the past few days, many village forts across the world were persuaded to relocate. Archean Mountain, Two World Island, and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven were very influential within their respective dynasties. Most of the villagers in village forts began to move away.

Those that were capable would directly enter a city. After all, a village fort contained thousands of people. Experts also lived in those village forts.

Those who did not have the capability split up and moved to scattered villages. Some moved to secluded areas. It was normal for three to five families to live in seclusion deep within the mountains.

…

19th July.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue continued cultivating in the mountain forest outside the city.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The couple streaked across the sky and flew out of the city. When they left the city, they saw a large number of houses outside the city walls. Clearly, many of the villagers from the village forts were unable to enter the city and stayed outside the city.

“Archean Mountain has been asking village forts to migrate for the past few months. The people unable to enter the city end up staying outside the city,” said Meng Chuan.

“It’s not easy to stay outside the city either. They also need to buy food. Food is very expensive now. In just a few months, the price has doubled,” said Liu Qiyue. “Many people in the city can’t afford it anymore. More and more people are willing to risk their lives to farm.”

The duo landed in the forest.

“A few small villages recently moved to this mountain forest. A kilometer to our east is a small village with over ten households,” said Liu Qiyue. “More people will probably move here soon. This mountain forest might not be suitable for our cultivation in the future.”

“I’ll find another place later.” Meng Chuan stood under the tree. With a thought, the tree leaves rustled as Meng Chuan instantly drew his saber and slashed.

His wife reaching the Realm of Dao was a form of motivation for Meng Chuan.

He continued to cultivate harder.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The saber whistled. As Yin-Yang transformations occurred constantly, Meng Chuan slashed out with his saber at an extremely fast speed. As he did this, Meng Chuan vaguely sensed the Yin-Yang transformation’s unique rhythm. Under this rhythm, extreme Yin transformed into Yang. Extreme Yang then transformed into Yin! This caused his saber to move even faster! The force behind his previous strike lulled into his next strike, causing his saber to move extremely fast.

Oh? Meng Chuan stared blankly at the fallen leaves on the ground. This time, more than half of the fallen leaves had been split apart.

This is the feeling. Meng Chuan was excited as he executed his saber art again, but he could no longer find the rhythm.

Since I can do it once, I can do it again. I finally see hope of achieving Saber Dao. Previously, he had been at a loss with his saber training, but now, he had finally realized the direction he needed to head.

At the Saber Dao realm, his saber arts were terrifyingly fast, yet it was perfectly controlled.

Yin and Yang had an intricate and profound relationship. Once one found the rhythm, a wonderful feeling would flow over them.

Huh? Meng Chuan executed his saber art over and over again. An hour later, he suddenly felt a burning sensation near his chest. His expression immediately changed as he took out his Patroller token. He immediately saw a lit spot on the Patroller Token. Following that, a second spot lit up.

“Two places are requesting help.” Liu Qiyue flashed to Meng Chuan’s side as she held her Patroller token.

“Let’s set off,” said Meng Chuan. Just as he said that, a third spot lit up on his Patroller token.

Astonished, the couple looked at each other. They knew something was amiss. So many requests for help in a short period of time…

It was very abnormal.

“Let’s go.” Meng Chuan immediately streaked across the sky with his wife.

Meng Chuan’s Patroller token continued to stay hot as he traveled. The couple saw areas on their Patroller tokens light up one after another. It went from three, five, ten, twenty, thirty…

“Over 30 requests for help and the number is still increasing! The demons are attacking nearly all the county cities on a large scale.” Liu Qiyue looked at her Patroller token and felt a little flustered.

“We’ll sweep across the closest county cities first.” Meng Chuan also understood that his master’s information was correct. Ten percent of the Demon Realm’s third Firmament demon monarchs had been sent into the human world. After receiving so many requests for help, he understood why the Godfiend teams had been disbanded and reformed, as well as why all the people in village forts had to relocate.

The war between humans and demons had truly begun at this moment.
