A blurred figure, body shimmering with electric light, moved through the rain, heading directly towards the eastern district of Jiangzhou City.

"Gods and demons are dying in the east district one after another?" Meng Chuan held his token. As one of the three strongest gods and demons in the city, his token could sense all other gods and demons within the city. He now noticed that the death toll of gods and demons in the east district far exceeded other areas.

Though perhaps inferior in strength to a Marquis God-Demon (fourth-heaven demon commander), Meng Chuan's speed far surpassed the Blackwater Palace Lord.

He had already wiped out all the demon commanders in the south district, while the Blackwater Palace Lord was still traversing the vast eastern district, hunting down individual gods and demons.

"Another god and demon dead?"

Meng Chuan suddenly sensed that a god and demon three li ahead had lost connection. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he instantly moved towards that direction.

The strongest demon commander in the east district, 'Cat Demon Commander', was leading two third-heaven demon commanders in an assault on three human gods and demons.

Three against three! However, one Indestructible Realm god and demon was quickly lost.

"This is bad." The Great Solar Realm god and demon, Cheng Ke, watched the Cat Demon Commander, who had transformed into nine phantoms in the rain. Despite unleashing his full true essence with the god and demon forbidden art, he still felt death approaching. Behind him, another slender Indestructible Realm female god and demon, Fu Nuo, who specialized in illusions, was even more anxious. She watched their fallen comrade nearby, her heart filled with sorrow.

"Junior Sister Fu, it seems this senior brother cannot protect you." Cheng Ke's heart was filled with desolation.

"Senior Brother Cheng, let's fight to the last man." Fu Nuo's small face was full of determination.

Cheng Ke held a long spear. He was fond of this junior sister and believed he was strong enough to protect her, striving to make her his comrade. Who would have thought they'd encounter the Cat Demon Commander and two other demon commanders, the strongest in the east district?

"Pfft."

The Cat Demon Commander, in nine phantom forms, pierced through the long spear's defense with a claw, striking Cheng Ke's chest. Although Cheng Ke wore inner armor, he still stumbled back several steps, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He looked terrified: "Junior Sister Fu!"

When he was knocked back, he exposed Fu Nuo, whom he had been protecting.

Fu Nuo, being merely of the Indestructible Realm and skilled in illusions, was vastly inferior in close combat against the Cat Demon Commander and the two other demon commanders.

"This accursed illusion demon, die." The Cat Demon Commander most wanted to kill this female god and demon, but the other two gods and demons were trying their best to protect her.

"Female god and demon." The Rhino Demon Commander charged forward with a large hammer.

Another demon commander was lurking underground, unseen.

"Hmm?"

The strongest, the Cat Demon Commander, suddenly turned its head. It saw a flash of lightning strike from the distance in the rain! A blurred figure was within the lightning!

"Thunderous Extermination Devil Body!" The Cat Demon Commander's fur stood on end. Among gods and demons, only a Thunderous Extermination Devil Body practitioner could be so fast and skilled with lightning.

"Hmm?"

The Indestructible Realm illusion demon, Fu Nuo, also saw it.

A flash of a blade cut through individual raindrops and then through the Cat Demon Commander's body, but the commander's body dissolved into a phantom and dispersed.

Nine Cat Demon Commander figures appeared all around, retreating simultaneously, screeching sharply: "It's Meng Chuan!"

There were only a handful of Great Solar Realm gods and demons who had cultivated the Thunderous Extermination Devil Body. One who used a blade, and was so powerful, was unique—Meng Chuan, who had perfected the Thunderous Extermination Devil Body!

"Dodged?" Meng Chuan, bathed in lightning, looked at the Cat Demon Commander with some surprise. His primordial spirit domain could sense that the Cat Demon Commander's aura was very strong; it should be an elite third-heaven demon commander! Yet, the Cat Demon Commander's agility still surprised Meng Chuan.

"Boom." "Boom."

Two dazzling blade lights streaked across the sky.

One blade struck the Rhino Demon Commander, who was wielding a large hammer. The Rhino Demon Commander desperately swung its hammer to block but was directly sent flying backward. Its large hammer flew off, landing far away and smashing the courtyard wall of a civilian house. It coughed twice and then fell silent. That strike had completely shattered the Rhino Demon Commander's internal organs and brain, killing it on the spot.

The other blade strike split the ground, creating a chasm, and hit the black-robed demon commander hidden underground, causing it to explode instantly.

For Meng Chuan now, ordinary third-heaven demon commanders truly could not withstand a single move.

"This is bad." The Cat Demon Commander unhesitatingly tried to escape, transforming into nine figures darting in all directions.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Meng Chuan also transformed into nine figures, and he was even faster. Each blade strike eliminated one of the Cat Demon Commander's figures.

"Pfft." Finally, the Cat Demon Commander's true body sustained a wound, and it instantly bounced away to escape again.

"Hmm?" Meng Chuan slightly frowned. This Cat Demon Commander was the fastest and most agile third-heaven demon commander he had encountered, and its vitality was remarkably tenacious.

He had thought his speed would completely overwhelm the opponent and allow him to kill it in two or three moves, but unexpectedly, the opponent could still struggle.

"Too fast, I've actually met someone faster than me. My best illusion demon art was forcefully broken by his speed," the Cat Demon Commander said anxiously.

"Hmm?"

The Cat Demon Commander's expression suddenly changed. As Meng Chuan's figure rapidly closed in behind it, an intense killing aura erupted. The Cat Demon Commander felt a bone-chilling cold, though this cold only slightly affected it. But what truly brought despair was the blade that instantly appeared before it—this strike was far more terrifying than before.

The black killing aura quickly retracted.

A Cat Demon Commander's head flew off. Meng Chuan glanced back at Cheng Ke and Fu Nuo, the two gods and demons: "Leave the east district immediately. I'll handle the east district."

"Yes, Senior Brother Meng," Cheng Ke and Fu Nuo both replied quickly.

Then they watched as Meng Chuan flashed and disappeared into the misty rain in the distance.

Both of them were deeply shocked. The other two third-heaven demon commanders were killed with one strike, and the powerful Cat Demon Commander was also slain in an instant? He was indeed the 'Senior Brother Meng', a renowned genius from Mount Yuanchu. When Fu Nuo was on the mountain, the most dazzling disciple on Mount Yuanchu was Meng Chuan.

"Let's go quickly." Cheng Ke and Fu Nuo first arranged for their comrade's body, then, suppressing their sorrow, headed straight for the west district.

"This Cat Demon Commander actually forced me to use my primordial spirit power," Meng Chuan thought. If he hadn't used his primordial spirit power, with the Cat Demon Commander's demon art and life-saving abilities, it might have lasted ten rounds. Meng Chuan knew clearly now that with gods and demons in the east district falling one after another, he had to stop it quickly.

Of course, he only used his primordial spirit power to mobilize his true essence. With his current primordial spirit accumulation, such a move did not result in significant consumption.

Meng Chuan was searching for the 'culprit' who was most effectively killing gods and demons. Naturally, if he encountered any demon commanders, he would immediately slay them.

"Let's quickly rendezvous with Junior Brother Meng!"

Zhang Junfeng and Yang Fang, who were stronger than Meng Chuan, immediately left their residences when the demon commanders invaded. Using their tokens to sense, they rushed towards the south district, intending to meet up with Meng Chuan.

However, their speed was much slower than Meng Chuan's. Midway through their journey, they also discovered continuous losses of gods and demons in the east district. By then, Meng Chuan had already finished killing demon commanders in the south and was heading towards the east district.

"Junior Brother Meng has already reached the east district."

Zhang Junfeng and Yang Fang hurried along.

"Demon commanders." Yang Fang saw three demon commanders in the distance, furiously breaking through underground passages and slaughtering mortals.

"Hmph." The white-haired Zhang Junfeng's eyes turned cold. The three demon commanders, nearly two li away, suddenly felt a vast whiteness, and countless white threads instantly pierced them, killing them instantly.

As a practitioner of the 'Indestructible Divine Body', which had the strongest domain among god-demon bodies, and having achieved Great Accomplishment in the Dao realm, he was even stronger than a newly promoted Marquis God-Demon. Zhang Junfeng, relying solely on his domain abilities, possessed strength comparable to the threshold of a Marquis God-Demon. Even the Cat Demon Commander would have been instantly killed in his presence! Facing Senior Brother Zhang, Meng Chuan would also have to immediately escape, not daring to enter Senior Brother Zhang's domain.

"Let's hurry. Gods and demons in the east district are dying too quickly, far more than anywhere else in Jiangzhou City. I'm worried there's a fourth-heaven demon or a fourth-heaven demon commander in the east," Zhang Junfeng said with concern in his eyes. "In that case, Junior Brother Meng would be very dangerous. We are old, but no matter what, we must protect Junior Brother Meng."

"Mm." Yang Fang also nodded.

The two followed their senses, transforming into phantoms, and quickly rushed over.
