Chapter 396: Famous Throughout the World Shielding the Sect

"Now the Canghai lineage has returned. Hundreds of thousands of years have proven that Yuanchu Mountain's path is the correct one," Li Guan said with a faint smile, walking towards the God of War Tower. "I never thought I, Li Guan, would have the chance to challenge the God of War Tower before my lifespan ends."

Li Guan walked to the God of War Tower, and Qin Wu, Luo Tang, and Meng Chuan followed him.

"I heard the stone pillar in front of the God of War Tower contains rankings," Qin Wu said with a smile. "As long as your true essence penetrates it, the ranking will appear. Those at the top are all famous figures in our human history." As he spoke, a wisp of his true essence penetrated the pillar.

Meng Chuan blinked, looking at the familiar rankings.

"Venerable Dali, Daoist Fuxiao, Ancestor Yuanchu..." Qin Wu read out the most prominent names. Suddenly, he frowned as he looked at the fifth name: "Demon Slayer?"

"Who is Demon Slayer?" Luo Tang asked, puzzled. "I know everyone else in the top ten. Venerable Dali was an elder who created the 'Dali Demonic Body' and, as a Venerable, passed the eighth level of the God of War Tower, ranking first in potential in history. Daoist Fuxiao was a monstrous talent who achieved creation at sixty-two but perished early after entering the River of Spacetime. Ancestors Yuanchu and Canghai, along with Island Master Wanjian, Qinglian Ke, Emperor An Yang, and others, are among the most brilliant figures in human history."

These figures either became Emperors, possessed monstrous talent, created transcendent divine-demon bodies, or even reached the Tribulation Realm. Each of them was revered by generations of Venerables. And now, a 'Demon Slayer' had appeared in the top ten.

"Demon Slayer?" Li Guan asked, confused.

Qin Wu, however, turned to Meng Chuan. "Meng Chuan, isn't your battle saber also called Demon Slayer?"

"To be frank, Master," Meng Chuan replied, "the reason I was able to obtain the entire Canghai Sect was by challenging the God of War Tower and the Heart Sea Hall. After passing the Canghai Sect's tests, the Demon Slayer ranked fifth is me."

"It's you?" Qin Wu, Luo Tang, and Li Guan all looked at Meng Chuan in astonishment.

What did it mean to be ranked fifth in skill and realm potential in human history? Just look at who made it into the top ten, and it became clear.

"To actually rank fifth," Luo Tang murmured, unable to believe it. "Were we blind back then, that we didn't see Meng Chuan had such talent in skill and realm?"

"Some talents mature later. Meng Chuan has simply undergone a transformation and is even more outstanding than before," Qin Wu said with emotion, then looked at Meng Chuan. "You said you challenged the God of War Tower and the Heart Sea Hall, and that's how you obtained everything from the Canghai Sect? The Canghai Sect must have set a very high bar for you to possess it."

"Yes." Meng Chuan nodded. "If I ranked in the top five in both the Heart Sea Hall and the God of War Tower, the Canghai Sect would be entirely given to me. The only condition was that I ensure the Canghai lineage does not die out in the future."

"The Heart Sea Hall also in the top five?" Luo Tang teleported in front of the Heart Sea Hall and urged, "Qin Wu, hurry, hurry!"

Qin Wu also arrived in front of the Heart Sea Hall and allowed a wisp of his true essence to penetrate the pillar. The rankings appeared in the pillar: First: Demon Slayer; Second: Island Master Wanjian; Third: Emperor An Yang.

"Ranked first in the Heart Sea Hall?" Luo Tang, Qin Wu, and Li Guan were all stunned by what they saw. All three turned to look at Meng Chuan.

"Such a monstrous talent has actually appeared among our generation at Yuanchu Mountain," Luo Tang murmured, unable to hold back. Discovering that a disciple of their era could be counted among the most extraordinary in human history, Li Guan and the other two Venerables felt both excitement and profound complexity. They knew very well how astonishingly such 'monstrous talents' had grown throughout history. A Peerless King fighting Venerables. A Venerable fighting Emperors! This was practically their normal performance. Many of them created powerful unique skills, and even new transcendent divine-demon bodies.

"We must protect him and let him grow properly," Li Guan transmitted mentally. "Given enough time, he can end this war."

"First in the Heart Sea Hall, fifth in the God of War Tower. This surpasses even our human predecessors. Of all the geniuses in human history, he is likely the closest to Ancestor Cang Yuan," Qin Wu also transmitted mentally. "A genius approaching Ancestor Cang Yuan – we must protect him as much as possible."

"We've given him all the protective treasures we could," Luo Tang transmitted mentally. "What more can we do?"

"No, we haven't done enough; we can do better," Li Guan transmitted mentally.

The three of them discussed. Meng Chuan stood by, completely unaware of what the three Venerables were secretly discussing.

The rankings in the Heart Sea Hall and God of War Tower shocked the three Venerables immensely. Those who ranked in the top ten in both categories—Island Master Wanjian, Emperor An Yang, Ancestor Yuanchu—all became at least Emperors! Figures like Venerable Dali and Daoist Fuxiao, while possessing exceptionally high talent in skill and realm, were limited by their primordial spirits, preventing them from advancing beyond the Venerable level. Yet Meng Chuan ranked in the top five in both, a feat unprecedented in human history. The closest to him was Emperor An Yang, who was the human race's closest to Ancestor Cang Yuan and a mighty figure of the 'Primordial Spirit Third Tribulation Realm'.

"Senior Brother Li, you're considering Meng Chuan's welfare far too meticulously," Luo Tang transmitted mentally.

Li Guan transmitted mentally, "A genius comparable to Emperor An Yang, Ancestor Yuanchu, and Island Master Wanjian has been born in our era. This is our era's fortune, and we must protect him well. The world of cultivators ultimately depends on individual strength. The emergence of a peerless expert can not only resolve the war but even permanently change the fate of our race."

"Meng Chuan," Li Guan said, looking at Meng Chuan with a smile, "you needn't worry about the Canghai lineage dying out. Our Yuanchu Mountain will establish the 'Canghai lineage' within the sect in the future, focusing on Ancestor Canghai's legacy. However, until the war ends, the Canghai lineage will remain a hidden one and not be publicly disclosed."

"Understood," Meng Chuan nodded. The sect establishing this lineage also helped him resolve his karmic ties.

"Your contributions this time are immense," Li Guan said, smiling as he looked at Qin Wu and Luo Tang beside him. "To be honest, we've racked our brains and truly found nothing left to reward you with. But it has always been Yuanchu Mountain's rule not to shortchange those who render great service. So, after discussion, we've made an exception... and decided to appoint you as Yuanchu Mountain's 'Order Keeper'."

"Order Keeper?" Meng Chuan asked, puzzled.

"Currently, Yuanchu Mountain only has three Order Keepers: Qin Wu, Luo Tang, and myself," Li Guan explained. "The three of us, through joint deliberation, can decide all matters of the sect. Of course, we must also adhere to certain rules left by our predecessors, making exceptions only in special circumstances."

"Me, an Order Keeper? Is that really necessary?" Meng Chuan hesitated slightly.

"If it's your turn to bear it, then bear it," Li Guan said, looking at Meng Chuan. "You are already resolving the threat of a million demon kings, and you've even brought back everything from the Canghai Sect. Your contributions have surpassed those of any Venerable in Yuanchu Mountain's history. Your strength is also sufficient to rival Creation-level experts. You are qualified to be an Order Keeper. This isn't just about power; more importantly, it's about responsibility—a responsibility you must shoulder. It means that from now on, there will be no stronger individuals to shelter you from the storm. You will need to shelter the sect from the storm!"

"I need to shelter the sect from the storm?" Meng Chuan felt a new sense of responsibility settle upon him.

"Given your growth rate, within a few decades, you will become the sturdiest tree in the sect," Li Guan said with a smile. Qin Wu and Luo Tang also nodded. For a genius comparable to Emperor An Yang, Ancestor Canghai, and Island Master Wanjian, achieving accomplishments comparable to Qin Wu and Li Guan within a few decades is perfectly normal. Taking over a century? That would be considered slow cultivation!
