Chapter 407: Liu Qiyue's Lifespan

Jiuyuan Demon Saint fled without hesitation, surprising both Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue. The arrogant Demon Saint, who had posed a deadly threat, had just fled?

"Its injuries are too severe; it can't sustain this," Meng Chuan quickly understood. It seemed his three penetrations from 'Demon Cone' had caused immense damage.

"Qiyue, I'll go after it to prevent its escape," Meng Chuan transmitted to his wife.

"Go ahead. This is the best chance to deal with Jiuyuan Demon Saint. Be careful yourself," Liu Qiyue replied, stopping her Phoenix Nirvana as the flames on her body quickly subsided.

"Don't worry," Meng Chuan said. His Seamless Domain allowed him to clearly perceive the rate at which his wife's lifespan was diminishing, causing a pang in his heart. "Less than eight breaths, and she even stopped shooting arrows midway because Jiuyuan Demon Saint's body was too formidable... Even so, it still cost eighty-nine years of her lifespan?" Meng Chuan lamented. In Phoenix Nirvana state, there was naturally a difference in lifespan consumption between shooting arrows at full power and not shooting. But this time, the average consumption per breath still exceeded ten years, much faster than when she was a Marquis Godfiend. Eighty-nine years of lifespan. How long was a Regalia Godfiend's total lifespan? In the coming days, he had to avoid situations that would require his wife to activate Phoenix Nirvana.

"Jiuyuan Demon Saint must be dealt with now. If it escapes, it will cause endless trouble," Meng Chuan thought. He quickly pursued on his Bloodblade Disc, while simultaneously releasing numerous bloodblades to surround and attack Jiuyuan Demon Saint.

Meng Chuan was fast, but the bloodblades were even faster! Like streaks of lightning, the bloodblades continuously encircled and entangled Jiuyuan Demon Saint.

Yuanchu Mountain.

Venerable Li Guan, Qin Wu's projection, and Luo Tang's projection watched the scene unfolding in the spatial ripples. As Liu Qiyue's aura surged and her arrows' power greatly increased, Jiuyuan Demon Saint finally fled in panic.

"It fled.""Good."Li Guan and the other two were overjoyed.

Luo Tang said joyfully, "Although Phoenix Nirvana consumes lifespan quickly for Liu Qiyue at the Regalia Godfiend stage, her strength also improves rapidly. She has now reached the 'pinnacle Regalia Godfiend' stage. Under Phoenix Nirvana, she becomes an archer comparable to a 'pinnacle Creation Realm' expert. With a good bow and arrows, her shots possess the power of a peak Creation Realm."

An archer's arrows are inherently powerful. A pinnacle Creation Realm archer's attacks can rival a 'peak Creation Realm' expert. A peak Creation Realm archer's attacks can rival the 'Emperor-level threshold'. With a suitable 'Tribulation Realm secret treasure,' their threat can be further increased!

"It was also because Meng Chuan's primordial spirit mystic art heavily wounded Jiuyuan Demon Saint. That's why Jiuyuan Demon Saint couldn't withstand Liu Qiyue's arrows," Venerable Li Guan chuckled. "If Jiuyuan Demon Saint had been unharmed, it could naturally have blocked them and slain an archer at close range."

"Haha, so their combined effort forced Jiuyuan Demon Saint to retreat," Luo Tang said, pleased.

"The Forbidden Art of Demon Cone is indeed formidable," Venerable Li Guan nodded. "It was once a forbidden art that brought great prestige to our Cangyuan Realm across the River of Spacetime. After the decline of the Canghai Sect, this mystic art was lost. Now, it has finally returned."

During the Cangyuan Sect era, the human world held considerable renown in the surrounding regions of the River of Spacetime. First, 'Patriarch Cangyuan' was widely celebrated, followed by generations of Emperors and invincible Creation Realm experts. With powerful secret treasures, weapons, and formidable forbidden arts, who in the surrounding area wouldn't show some apprehension towards Cangyuan Realm's powerhouses? The primordial spirit mystic art 'Demon Cone' was even a signature skill of the human world!

However, in the last five to six hundred thousand years, this mystic art was lost. The number of strong individuals born in the past five to six hundred thousand years has also significantly decreased. Humanity has actually been gradually declining, with generations of resources being consumed. Even the 'Cangyuan Grotto-Heaven' will be exhausted in the near future. In the last five hundred and sixty thousand years, fewer and fewer strong individuals have emerged among humans. The Cangyuan Realm, in the surrounding regions of the River of Spacetime, is now quite diminished, far from matching the prestige of the Demon Realm.

"Qin Wu, you must hurry and take this opportunity to eliminate the threat of Jiuyuan Demon Saint," Venerable Li Guan instructed.

"Understood," Qin Wu's projection nodded.

"It escaped."Meng Tiange and Mi Yu were delighted. Bai Yaoyue also smiled. Meng Chuan, as a Regalia Godfiend, was now crucial to the war; from the perspective of the entire human race, he could not die! Jiuyuan Demon Saint had arrived with such fierce momentum, yet the outcome brought them joy.

"Jiuyuan Demon Saint repeatedly clutched its head and wailed, yet no visible injuries were apparent. It must have been a primordial spirit mystic art, right?" Meng Tiange exclaimed. "Jiuyuan Demon Saint is at least a fifth-level primordial spirit. Who unleashed a primordial spirit mystic art that could severely wound it? Meng Chuan? Liu Qiyue?"

"Both husband and wife are very young. Regardless of who it was, being able to wield a primordial spirit mystic art to severely wound Jiuyuan Demon Saint is truly remarkable," Mi Yu praised. "However, I suspect it was Meng Chuan who cast the primordial spirit mystic art. Firstly, the streaks of light he controlled were extraordinarily powerful, likely Tribulation Realm secret treasures. Wielding Tribulation Realm secret treasures usually demands a very high primordial spirit level. Secondly, as a scouting Godfiend, if his primordial spirit were too weak, the demon race would have many ways to target him. Thirdly... I've reviewed Meng Chuan's intelligence. When he joined Yuanchu Mountain, his 'spiritual perception test' during the entrance examination far surpassed everyone else, indicating an inherently extremely high primordial spirit talent."

Bai Yaoyue watched silently.

"Junior Sister Bai, your primordial spirit talent is also quite high. Meng Chuan having such talent probably owes something to you too," Meng Tiange, in good spirits, couldn't help but tease with a laugh.

Bai Yaoyue scoffed.

"Hahaha..." Meng Tiange's laughter grew even more hearty.

Although the matter between Bai Nianyun and Meng Dajiang was kept secret by Black Sand Grotto-Heaven, even the elders of the 'Taiyin Palace' lineage could tell that Bai Nianyun was no longer a maiden and quickly found out about her connection with Meng Dajiang. Meng Tiange and Mi Yu, both Creation Realm Venerables, naturally knew this long ago. They also knew about Meng Chuan's relationship with the Bai family. By extension... Meng Chuan also had a partial lineage from the Bai family. And Bai Yaoyue possessed incredibly monstrous talent, becoming a Regalia Godfiend at just fifty-three! Although her primordial spirit talent was far from Meng Chuan's abnormal level, she reached the third level of primordial spirit in her forties, which was still considered very high primordial spirit talent.

"Nianyun was the most like me among the younger generation of the Bai family, and her talent was high enough. But her self-control was insufficient, being with Meng Dajiang, a mere mortal. Even after losing her maiden status, she still became a Marquis Godfiend," Bai Yaoyue thought to herself. "If she had exercised self-discipline, she might have been able to take charge of the Taiyin Palace and become a Creation Realm Venerable in the future. Instead, it benefited the Meng family."

Bloodline inheritance is undeniable. The more outstanding the parents, the higher the starting point for their children due to inherited bloodlines. Of course, effort and cultivation are even more important! Among the children of powerhouses, there are also wastrels, and among the children of mortals, there are also those who achieve astonishing success. Even a world as seemingly weak as the human world can produce a mighty expert like Patriarch Cangyuan, a seventh-tribulation physical body expert. As for the couple Meng Dajiang and Bai Nianyun, there have been tens of thousands of Godfiend couples stronger than them throughout human history. Yet, their son, 'Meng Chuan,' ranked first in the comprehensive potential rankings of the Mind Sea Hall and Battle God Tower! This can no longer be explained by parental inheritance alone; it is more due to Meng Chuan's own continuous transformations. True powerhouses are those who repeatedly surpass themselves in all aspects: primordial spirit, willpower, comprehension, and understanding!

Far outside Jiangzhou City, a golden-armored envoy distantly observed the major battle unfolding within the city. It represented 'Emperor Peng,' one of the three demon emperors. What it saw, Emperor Peng would also see. This was why Jiuyuan Demon Saint and Black Robe Beijue were so respectful towards this envoy.

"Jiuyuan fled?" the golden-armored envoy watched from afar, somewhat in disbelief. "Did we lose?"
