Archean Eon Art Chapter 62: How Could He Be Satisfied?

Chapter 62: How Could He Be Satisfied?

It’s a demon monarch. ng Chuan’s heart tightened. A demon monarch is comparable to a Godfiend.

A black fog enveloped the entire area.

At this mont, he only had two options. The first was to flee. After all, Demon Monarch Poison Pool was still a thousand feet away. By making use of this distance, he would be able to increase his chances of survival. The second was to be devoured by the black fog.

I want to see how powerful a demon monarch is. ng Chuan did not choose to flee. Blazing Sun Castle was ahead of him. If the black fog were to pass by Blazing Sun Castle, countless people would die. Those hiding deep in the tunnels might be able to escape such a fate, but Qiyue and the rest—who hadn’t hidden—would be reduced to pools of blood.

He didn’t hesitate to fuse the Power of the Soul with his body. This was his first ti fighting a demon monarch. Under the threat of death, he tried to control every ounce of strength in his body. The Power of the Soul worked with him as he excavated his potential. He instantly transford into lightning.

Swoosh.

ng Chuan charged into the black fog as a lightning bolt. He moved at unprecedented speeds. He was even faster than when he killed the three demon commanders! The pressure brought by the demon monarch was too imnse.

“Eh?” Poison Pool was charging at his fastest speed but ng Chuan wasn’t fleeing. ng Chuan took the initiative to rush at him, causing the thousand-feet gap between them to vanish instantly.

What incredible speed! Poison Pool was alard.

What a terrifying poisonous fog. After rushing into the black fog, ng Chuan sensed his protective Quintessential Essence rapidly corroding. Fortunately, his Quintessential Essence was ten tis more dense—due to the Power of the Soul rging with his body—raising his resistance duration significantly. My protective Quintessential Essence will only last a few seconds before it is completely corroded. I have to be fast.

ng Chuan instantly arrived in front of Poison Pool.

The black fog around Poison Pool’s body grew thicker, but ng Chuan’s hundred-foot sensory domain allowed ng Chuan to “see” his opponent. Poison Pool was a humanoid snake demon with iridescent green skin. He wielded a spear, and his gray eyes stared coldly at him.

“Kill!” ng Chuan’s killing intent soared. The mont he closed in, a saber beam flashed.

Lightning Ultimate Saber Drawing Stance!

The saber beam slashed at the demon monarch.

So what if he’s a demon monarch? He’s just a special life form, one that can still be killed! He believed he had the strength of a quasi-Godfiend since he was at the Core Condensation Realm and had a more robust foundation than his peers With the explosive strength granted by fusing the Power of the Soul, it wasn’t impossible for him to be a threat to a demon monarch.

Chi! Chi! Chi! He struck out with his saber, slicing through the black fog around Poison Pool. The protective black fog was incomparably tough, and his strikes were greatly weakened. He had rely cleaved through a single inch of black fog before stopping.

A maximum-power strike only cut through an inch of black fog? The demon monarch’s protective black fog is about ten feet thick.

The results made ng Chuan disheartened. The difference in strength was too great. Just too great!

Poison Pool wore a faint smile as he watched this scene. He didn’t even bother blocking the strike. He allowed ng Chuan to slash at the black fog freely, happy to watch the mortal genius despair.

Flee! After failing his attack, ng Chuan instantly used a forbidden Godfiend spell. Powerful Quintessential Essence erupted from his acupuncture points, and his muscles and bones began releasing powers that exceeded his limits. Fused with the Power of the Soul, he transford into a bolt of lightning and shot off into the distance with high speed.

Poison Pool was sowhat astonished. He quickly recovered from his astonishnt, and speedily chased after him.

...

“That’s a very terrifying demon monarch.” Inside Blazing Sun Castle, Dean Zhong and many other experienced veteran soldiers guessed that the source of the terrifying black fog was a demon monarch.

“We’re finished.”

“Hurry up and flee! Split up and flee!” one of the veteran soldiers shouted anxiously.

The subsequent developnts stunned them.

ng Chuan had transford into lightning and charged into the black fog. It wasn’t soon before ng Chuan exited the black fog and quickly fled into the distance.

The black fog quickly shrank and covered a hundred-foot distance. Within the black fog, one could vaguely see a thirty-foot tall demon monarch chasing after ng Chuan.

The two began a ga of cat-and-mouse and quickly disappeared into the distance.

“Young Master ng fled in another direction to save us. He lured that demon monarch away.” Dean Zhong’s expression didn’t look good.

“He did it to save us.” Many veteran soldiers and Dao Academy disciples fell silent.

“Perhaps to the entire Eastcalm Prefecture, to the entire human race, Young Master ng is more important than our thousands of lives,” said a one-ard elder.

Everyone else was silent. So were willing to sacrifice their lives for ng Chuan’s life! However, most people wanted to live.

“Ah Chuan.” Liu Qiyue watched from afar. She could no longer see him, but she still looked in the direction he had fled in with tears in her eyes.

...

After ng Chuan charged out of the black fog, he imdiately stopped using the Power of the Soul. He had a tiny portion remaining.

Flee. As he used his forbidden Godfiend spell, his skin turned slightly red. He fled as a streak of lightning.

“What move did you use just now? How did your strength increase so much?” Poison Pool retracted his black fog and maintained it to cover a hundred-foot radius. Previously, the black fog covered a thousand-feet radius so he could capture ng Chuan. But to his surprise, ng Chuan’s speed was truly astonishing. His speed was greater than a second Firmant demon monarch like him. “Your speed gave a fright. Unfortunately, your saber art is too weak. Furthermore, you’ve slowed down.”

ng Chuan also understood the difference between them. A demon monarch was strong in all aspects. He was ultimately a mortal. He lacked in many aspects. He could be considered impressive among mortals, but he was too inferior to Godfiends and demon monarchs.

“You won’t be able to escape.” Poison Pool waved his hand, and a stream of light shot out from his finger. It was incomparably sharp, and its might was far greater than ng Chuan’s Power of the Soul-infused Lightning Ultimate Saber Drawing Stance.

Boom!

ng Chuan sensed the strong spherical aura shooting over and avoided it.

The stream of light tore through a huge tree beside him, and a huge hole appeared on the tree trunk. The beam flew hundreds of feet further before striking a rockery—which ultimately led to an explosion.

Just a casual finger point is terrifying. Is this what a demon monarch is capable of? ng Chuan gained a deeper understanding of their differences in strength. To think that he had dared to attack his opponent. The ignorant were truly fearless!

He actually managed to dodge it? Poison Pool chased after him and casually pointed at ng Chuan. Several light beams shot out.

Every light beam left a pitch-black hole in the ground or pierced through many residential walls. The power of these strikes left ng Chuan’s heart trembling.

Fortunately, they were nearly 1000 feet apart. Although ng Chuan was fleeing with all his might, he could still sense the light beams coming at him without looking back. This ant he could preemptively dodge.

“Humph.” Poison Pool’s five fingers simultaneously shot light beams. He no longer cared about conserving his demonic energy. However, ng Chuan was extrely slippery. It was as though he had eyes on the back of his head that allowed him to dodge ahead of ti.

He’s a mortal and easily killed a demon commander. He was even faster than , a second Firmant demon monarch. Although he is very weak in other aspects, he is ultimately a mortal.... To be this powerful, he must be a peerless genius. Such a peerless genius has a high bounty. Poison Pool grew very interested in ng Chuan.

Although Godfiends were powerful, the threat that newly-advanced Godfiends posed to demon monarchs was negligible.

On the contrary, peerless mortal geniuses had terrifying potential. After becoming Godfiends, they also had chances of becoming a terrifying Godfiend expert. Thus, if one could be considered a peerless genius, the demons would place a massive bounty on their heads.

In the eyes of Poison Pool, the young man before him was worth a huge bounty.

I’m not fast enough. Oh, forget it. For the sake of a genius, using a forbidden spell occasionally is fine. A forbidden spell’s influence was limited if used for a short period. With a thought, Poison Pool’s demonic powers raged.

ng Chuan sensed the demon monarch’s aura go berserk suddenly. Poison Pool’s speed increased, and he rapidly shortened the distance between them.

Not good. ng Chuan beca even more anxious. The distance between them was rapidly decreasing. 800 feet, 600 feet, 400 feet... The distance between them shortened extrely quickly.

Swish. Although ng Chuan was very fast when he used a forbidden Godfiend spell—allowing him to pass by many residences, ruins, and rivers—the demon monarch behind him was clearly faster than him after using a forbidden spell.

Power of the Soul!

He used the remnants of his Power of the Soul, boosting his speed.

ng Chuan’s speed increased as he tried to widen the gap between them., but he quickly exhausted his Power of the Soul. The distance between them was 600 feet. The gap continued to shrink.

What do I do? What do I do? ng Chuan frantically fled. He didn’t want to die. He was the ng family’s hope, and he had not completed the oath he had made at his mother’s grave. He wanted to beco a Godfiend! He hadn’t even killed a demon monarch! After so many years of cultivation, he had many ambitions. How could he be satisfied just dying like that?

Flee! The desperate thought flashed through his mind, causing his body to fuse with his Quintessential Essence even further. After this, his speed increased by 20%.

Legends ntioned that the physical body possessed trendous potential. The strength one usually unleashed in battle was just the tip of the iceberg of the physical body’s potential. If an incomparably powerful Godfiend were to control a body, the power they could unleash would be several-fold greater than a mortal.

However, ng Chuan reached his limit after raising his speed by 20%.

300 feet, 200 feet...

As the gap closed, ng Chuan could sense the aura behind him getting closer and closer.

Am I going to die here? To the hands of a demon monarch? ng Chuan was filled with grief and indignation, but there was nothing he could do.
