Chapter 283 Archean Mountain’s Strength
“It’s finally begun?” Qin Wu stood up with a solemn expression on his face. “Have you seen Demon Sage Nine Abyss?”
“Demon Sage Nine Abyss is instructing us to enter his grotto-heaven treasure,” said the illusory man. “We have already entered the grotto-heaven. Demon Sage Nine Abyss should be leaving Wide Imperial Pass this very moment.”
Qin Wu nodded slightly.
A demon sage could naturally escape with his subordinates extremely quickly.
The illusory man looked at Qin Wu. “What should I do?”
“Stay disguised as a member of the demons,” instructed Qin Wu. “Provide me any updates immediately.”
“Yes,” said the illusory man respectfully before dissipating.
Qin Wu stared off in the distance silently.
Meng Chuan wasn’t the only one who contributed to the human race. Many Godfiends contributed to humans’ survival.
“The final battle has started.” Qin Wu’s eyes glinted sharply. “What great timing.”
Whoosh.

Soon, the three of them met.
“Wide Imperial Pass has been breached.” Xu Yingwu’s expression turned ugly as he said, “King Wide Imperial died in the blink of an eye. He requested the highest-level of reinforcements. The one who attacked should be Demon Sage Nine Abyss. It has likely recovered its original cultivation.”
“I’m certain that the fourth Firmament demon monarchs have already sneaked in,” said Bai Yaoyue.
“They infiltrated from Wide Imperial Pass,” said Qin Wu. “Demon Sage Nine Abyss led them into a grotto-heaven treasure and rapidly fled.”
In terms of strength of all three factions, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven was now comparable to Archean Mountain. After all, Imperial Lord Black Sand and Grandsire Yin Yang—who created a transcendent-grade Godfiend Body-originated from Black Sand Grotto-Heaven. Back Sand Grotto-Heaven’s strength was unquestionable.
Archean Mountain had a longer heritage than the other two sects. After all, it had existed since humans still lived in tribes! It had lasted many eras with Imperial Lords! Even if Imperial Lords ruled the world, it was difficult for them to conquer Archean Mountain. Many mighty human legaciesincluding the most mysterious Archean Eon Grotto-Heaven-were all at Archean Mountain.
Xu Yingwu gritted his teeth. “The demons really treat my Two World Island as a pushover.”
“The Regis Godfiends that guard over the Great Yue Dynasty’s large city passes are the weakest. It’s normal for them to choose to attack you,” said Bai Yaoyue indifferently.
This was the truth. Peak Regis Godfiends from Archean Mountain, like King East River and Archean Mountain Lord, didn’t have the qualifications to guard large city passes. The ones responsible were King True Martial, King Calm Sea, King White Elephant, King Swallow Mountain, and etc. They were peak Regis Godfiends at the threshold of the Creation realm.
Demon Sage Nine Abyss just needed to weigh the pros and cons carefully, which is why he chose to attack the pushover. By doing this, he could prevent any accidents.
“Bai Yaoyue.” Xu Yingwu’s face was livid. “Our Two World Island has just lost a Regis Godfiend. Why are you making such sarcastic remarks?”
Bai Yaoyue snorted and did not retort. With her pride, she would’ve continued sniping at him. However, she didn’t continue because she was taking the big picture into account.
“The situation now is very clear. The demons have finally invaded the human world on an even larger scale. We can deal with 700 fourth Firmament demon monarchs since they’re just on the higher end of the strength spectrum,” said Qin Wu. “The million ordinary demon monarchs and countless demons are the most troublesome to deal with! Now, over a million demon monarchs are in front of the various medium-sized World Entrances in the Demon realm as they await their orders to charge into the human world.”
Both Bai Yaoyue and Xu Yingwu wore serious expressions.
“Both of you have kept the matter of the thousand-year-old mystic technique a secret, right?” asked Qin Wu.
“We all know how big the implications would be if the information leaked. There have been no leaks,” Xu Yingwu said.
“Don’t worry,” Bai Yaoyue said coldly.
“Then let’s act according to plan,” said Qin Wu. “We have to catch them off-guard and make them suffer heavy losses! If not, things will be much more troublesome in the future.”
Bai Yaoyue and Xu Yingwu nodded.
“Quickly make preparations. Fourth Firmament demon monarchs will be rushing to various cities from Wide Imperial Pass. They’ll take at least 12 hours to travel alone. We have to be as fast as possible,” said Qin Wu. “Everyone, the survival of humanity will depend on this final battle. If we lose, there will be no future for us.”
A cold light flashed in Xu Yingwu’s eyes. “We have to deal them a severe blow in this battle.”
“They only know how to hide underground.” Bai Yaoyue’s eyes were also filled with killing intent. Following that, she glanced at Qin Wu and Xu Yingwu, and said, “Summon me if you need anything.” Then, the illusory Bai Yaoyue disappeared.
The illusory Xu Yingwu also disappeared.
Inside an Archean Mountain grotto-heaven.
White fog drifted by an empty palace. Qin Wu and an illusory Luo Tang walked side-by-side.
In the enormous plaza in front of the palace, two figures were seated in the lotus position. One was a rather dispirited middle-aged man, while the other was a black-robed, red-haired woman. The two were like statues as they stayed seated in the lotus position, as though they had existed for thousands of years.
Huh? The two figures sitting cross-legged trembled slightly before opening their eyes. “Dao Protectors,” said Oin Wu. “‘The human race is now in a dire situation; the two of you will need to take action.” historical

I can maintain this body for 120 years before my Essence Soul dissipates. Every second of lucidity is precious. It’s worth it to kill demon monarchs.”
“You can stay lucid for another 80 years. However, my Essence Soul is at the fifth level. I can only stay lucid for 30 more years,” said the black-robed woman coldly.
The middle-aged man immediately smiled obsequiously. “Junior Sister, as long as the two of us don’t fight, we can remain in a meditative state for more than 1,000 years. Furthermore, a Dao Protector’s body allows us to possess the strength of an ordinary Creation realm expert. Our luck is pretty good.”
“Come in with us.” Qin Wu and the illusory Luo Tang led the way.
“How bad is the situation outside?” asked the two Dao Protectors as they followed along.
“One demon sage and 700 fourth Firmament demon monarchs lurk in the shadows,” said Qin Wu coldly. “There’s also a million demon monarchs and countless demons ready to attack at a moment’s notice. Their goal is to destroy our large cities and slaughter mortals! They want to wipe humanity out. Without mortals, no new Godfiends will be born. It is the simplest solution to getting rid of us humans. In just a few centuries, other than a few Supremacies, all of humanity’s Regis Godfiends would’ve died of old age. In 1,000 years, even Supremacies will die of old age. Besides, without sufficient manpower to stop them, they can secretly expand the World Entrances in our human world.”
As Qin Wu spoke, he walked to the palace.
The towering entrance of the palace was tightly shut, but outside the entrance were nine divine beast sculptures.
“Guardian Divine Beasts, wake up,” said Qin Wu.The nine Guardian Divine Beasts all opened their eyes.
“This time, all of you will also be participating in this battle,” said Qin Wu.
“As you command, Supremacy,” said the nine Guardian Divine Beasts respectfully. They were not normal life-forms, but puppets. As long as they were maintained well, they could exist forever.
Qin Wu and Luo Tang exchanged looks and pushed the palace entrance open together.
Rumble...
The entrance opened.
Figures laid inside the frost-filled palace hall. They were all humans; all were frozen in massive dark-blue ice blocks.
“Awaken, everyone!” Qin Wu said solemnly. All the dark-blue ice blocks in the hall began to melt. The eyelids of the figures inside the hall began to twitch.
