Chapter 369: Dripping Blood Realm Transforming Dragon Pool

“Yes, what are his demands? Please speak plainly,” Xu Yingwu added.

“This Godfiend from our Yuanchu Mountain will make a request of your Two World Island in the future,” Venerable Li Guan said with a smile. “Don't worry, if you can't fulfill it, then gifting him the secret treasure 'Yin-Yang Mirror' will be sufficient.”

Xu Yingwu slightly frowned.

The Yin-Yang Mirror?

While Two World Island's foundation isn't as profound as Yuanchu Mountain's or Black Sand Grotto-Heaven's, it is, after all, a lineage passed down by the Yin-Yang Elder. The Yin-Yang Elder had an extremely high cultivation realm and gained much during his travels through the River of Time, leaving behind many treasures for future generations. The Yin-Yang Mirror is a well-known one, an auxiliary secret treasure perfectly suited for the 'Yin-Yang Lineage'.

“Very well,” Xu Yingwu quickly decided. “Two World Island will naturally adhere to this, whether it's a request or the secret treasure 'Yin-Yang Mirror.' We will do our utmost to fulfill this Godfiend's request.”

If the request is met, there's no need to give the Yin-Yang Mirror; Two World Island naturally understood this.

“What about us? What do we need to provide?” Bai Yaoyue asked. She was prepared for a significant cost, as Black Sand Grotto-Heaven's foundation was far deeper than Two World Island's, having produced more than one Emperor. Moreover, it possessed two complete extraterrestrial legacies.

“It's the same — one request,” Li Guan continued. “That Godfiend will also make a request of your Black Sand Grotto-Heaven. If you can't fulfill it, you can hand over the 'Dragon Transformation Pond' to that Godfiend.”

“The Dragon Transformation Pond?” Bai Yaoyue's expression subtly changed. “That's a secret treasure that purifies the bloodline of 'Dragon Godfiend Body practitioners,' usable for generations.”

Among the human race's twelve supreme Godfiend Bodies, the Phoenix Godfiend Body and Dragon Godfiend Body are the most reliant on bloodline purity.

The purer the bloodline, the greater the potential.

“While the Dragon Transformation Pond is precious, firstly, the number of 'Dragon Godfiend Body' practitioners born among humans is incredibly rare. On average, only one appears every thousand years, and they typically only cultivate to the Marquis Godfiend stage; very few become 'Regis Godfiends.' The Dragon Transformation Pond is rarely used, so its importance to the sect isn't that high,” Li Guan explained. “And frankly, if we were to ask for the truly crucial treasures of the Black Sand Lineage, Lunar Lineage, or Blade and Halberd Lineage, you probably wouldn't agree so easily, would you? As for common treasures, does our Yuanchu Mountain even care about those?”

Bai Yaoyue was somewhat persuaded.

They were reluctant to part with the crucial treasures of Black Sand Grotto-Heaven's three main legacies. The Dragon Transformation Pond, however, was somewhat specialized; its utilization rate was low, and its impact on the sect's power was also low.

“The Dragon Transformation Pond is one of Black Sand Grotto-Heaven's ultimate treasures and unique in the human world. I also need to discuss this with the other two Venerables...” Bai Yaoyue said, as such a treasure was not hers alone to decide upon.

“Alright,” Li Guan said, showing patience.

He wanted to help Meng Chuan succeed, which was why he didn't choose other treasures.

Choosing a Lunar Lineage treasure? If it wasn't a core treasure, Bai Yaoyue alone could decide. But selecting a special treasure that required consultation with three Venerables, Bai Yaoyue wouldn't be able to convince the other two Venerables in the future just for the sake of appearances.

Bai Yaoyue fell silent for a moment, her true body consulting with the other two Venerables in Black Sand Grotto-Heaven.

Although all three Venerables were extremely reluctant to part with the unique 'Dragon Transformation Pond,' they also knew that for such a significant favor, ordinary treasures wouldn't suffice. If it could resolve the threat of a million demon monarchs, it would be worth it.

“As long as the threat of a million demon monarchs can be resolved,” Bai Yaoyue stated, “we will do our utmost to fulfill the Godfiend's request. Even if we cannot, we will present the Dragon Transformation Pond as a token of gratitude.”

“Rest assured, that Godfiend's strength is profound, so perhaps the request won't be overly demanding,” Li Guan said with a smile.

“When will he enter our Black Sand Dynasty territory and begin hunting demon monarchs underground?” Bai Yaoyue pressed.

“It should be our side first,” Xu Yingwu said.

“Together,” Li Guan said. “He will repeatedly investigate both sides, making the demon race feel disoriented. Furthermore, the underground investigation will begin tomorrow.”

“This Godfiend didn't immediately demand a treasure, but simply made a request?” Bai Yaoyue mused. “I'm truly curious which Godfiend it is; I should know all Godfiends from the last one or two millennia.”

Xu Yingwu also smiled. “I'm curious too, but his identity must be kept secret for now. The fewer people who know his identity, the safer he will be. He was assassinated once before.”

“Yes, it must remain confidential,” Li Guan said with a smile. “You will know his identity when it's time for it to be revealed.”

Xu Yingwu chuckled, “When the time comes, we must thank him properly; he has rendered great service to our entire human race.”

“I'd like to meet him too,” Bai Yaoyue also smiled.

The next day.

“Are you going to hunt demon monarchs underground in the territories of the other two great dynasties today?” Liu Qiyue asked, watching her husband eat breakfast.

“Yes,” Meng Chuan replied, taking a bite of a meat bun. “I estimate it will take about three years to clear out the Dayue Dynasty and Black Sand Dynasty.”

“Isn't King Baiyu also searching underground in the Black Sand Dynasty? Is he no help?” Liu Qiyue asked.

“He's helpful, but limited,” Meng Chuan said. “At King Baiyu's speed, it would take him ten years to sweep through the Black Sand Dynasty's underground. Yet, tens of thousands of demon monarchs enter the human world every year... an estimated ten to twenty thousand arrive in the Black Sand Dynasty's territory annually. After ten years, by the time King Baiyu completes one sweep, over a hundred thousand demon monarchs would have accumulated again in the areas he previously investigated.”

“If, in the future, the demon race were to send in a million demon monarchs on a large scale again, King Baiyu's efficiency would be too low to provide substantial help. The demon monarchs would still repeatedly attack the Black Sand Dynasty's cities and hunt its common people.”

Liu Qiyue understood.

“All right, time to go.” Meng Chuan finished a piece of flatbread, drank a large bowl of congee, and stood up.

“Be careful,” Liu Qiyue urged. She watched her husband go out to slaughter demon monarchs every day, but the previous demon ambush made her increasingly anxious.

The more fiercely her husband slaughtered, the more the demon race saw Meng Chuan as a thorn in their side, devising ways to deal with him.

How terrifying was the focused targeting of an entire race? Even across worlds, it was enough to make one's heart tremble.

“The demon race can't do anything to me; coming here is just asking for death,” Meng Chuan said with a laugh, then flashed and disappeared into the sky.

“Whoosh.”

He quickly entered the underground territory of the Dayue Dynasty.

Meng Chuan wore a mask, his temples streaked with white. Stepping on the Bloodblade Disc, he transformed into a stream of light, traveling at super high speed underground, and began his hunt.

Based on the size of the territory and the density of demon monarch strongholds, Meng Chuan spent more time in the Dayue Dynasty and less in the Black Sand Dynasty each day.

Days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed since he began investigating underground in the Dayue Dynasty and Black Sand Dynasty.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.”

Another underground demon monarch lair was discovered.

His True Essence threads, combined with his Seamless Domain, easily slaughtered every demon monarch in the lair. The accumulated resentment and karmic sin from the killings also actively attached themselves to Meng Chuan.

One who kills too much becomes naturally fierce and malicious, entangled by baleful and resentful aura. Such a vast amount of resentful and karmic sin aura can easily affect one's mind, causing them to fall into depravity and madness. And Meng Chuan wasn't killing mortals, but demon monarchs! The number he killed was staggering, already hundreds of thousands. If he had to bear all of it himself? He would have gone mad long ago.

Therefore, there had to be a way to resolve the resentful and karmic sin aura.

Meng Chuan's method was the Demon Slaying Saber.

The saber's scabbard and hilt were disguised, but the Demon Slaying Saber at his waist still vibrated. Within its scabbard, it actively drew in the resentful and karmic sin aura, absorbing everything. To it, this was a feast.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

The Demon Slaying Saber vibrated violently, striking its scabbard and emitting sounds.

“Hmm?” Meng Chuan's expression subtly changed. “What's happening to the Demon Slaying Saber?”

After absorbing the resentful and karmic sin aura from hundreds of thousands of deceased demon monarchs, the Demon Slaying Saber was undergoing a qualitative transformation.
