Archean Eon Art

Chapter 151: Earth Net

At the northern city wall, the general in charge of the city wall came to Wang Fucheng’s side and bowed respectfully. “Palace Lord.”

“Where’s the Godfiend who dealt with the demons?” asked Wang Fucheng.

“After the Lord turned all the demons into ice sculptures, he transformed into lightning and headed north.” The general pointed at a dark mountain outside the city.

“Okay.” Wang Fucheng nodded slightly and jumped off the city wall. He headed towards the mountain as a blurry stream of light.

Wang Fucheng arrived at the barren mountain by following the demons’ tracks. When he saw the distorted World Entrance that was 1000 feet long, he immediately looked around in puzzlement.

“Junior Brother Wang.” After Meng Chuan spoke, he jumped down from the tree and landed on the ground.

Wang Fucheng smiled when he saw Meng Chuan. He walked over with a smile, and said, “Senior Brother Meng, I rushed over to meet you after I finished my work in the city. I don’t know how many people would’ve died in Green Mountain Prefecture City if it weren’t for you.”

“It’s nothing.” Meng Chuan shook his head and asked, “What losses did Green Mountain Prefecture City suffer?”

“Some people were implicated when the demon monarchs entered the city,” said Wang Fucheng. “A few hundred people died.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. That was already a low casualty count! If the demon monarchs had defeated the Godfiends, the entire city would be reduced to ruins. Hundreds of thousands of people would die; it would be tragic!

Meng Chuan had witnessed the destruction of a city when he was six, which was why he never showed mercy to the demons.

“Speaking of which, Junior Brother Wang, it’s been almost five years since you left Archean Mountain.” Meng Chuan didn’t continue talking about the losses.

“Yes.” Wang Fucheng nodded and said, “After I left the mountain, I was first stationed at Calm Sea Pass for three years. Since King Calm Sea was around, it was relatively safe. Senior Brother Meng, your strength far exceeds ours. Were you deployed to a medium-sized city pass?”

“North River Pass.” Meng Chuan didn’t hide anything.

“Among our fellow disciples, most of the powerful Great Solar Godfiends are stationed at medium-sized city passes,” said Wang Fucheng wistfully.

Meng Chuan nodded. Archean Mountain’s Great Solar Godfiends had different levels of strength. For top experts like Zhang Yunhu—who had reached the Realm of Dao—they were very close to becoming Darkstar Godfiends. Mu Qing and Fan Cheng—who was extremely talented—were both at the Realm of Soul’s peak. Yu Chiyan, Shi Xiu, and Yang Xingwu had Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul. One cultivated the Mirage Fiend Body, another cultivated the Sanguine Divine Body, and the last was skilled with domains. They all played important roles on the battlefield.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were peerless geniuses. They had achieved Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul and had perfected transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies. Their roles on the battlefield were no less important than Zhang Yunhu’s! They were stationed at a medium-sized city pass the moment they descended Archean Mountain.

Most of Archean Mountain’s top Great Solar Godfiends went to medium-sized city passes. The remaining Godfiends went to Earth Net.

For the Great Solar Godfiends that had just reached the Realm of Soul, they typically guarded small cities.

Wang Fucheng shook his head and said, “I have to attain Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul before I can go to a medium-sized city pass. I’m still at the Realm of Intent’s peak and haven’t become a Great Solar Godfiend.”

“You’ve only left the mountain for five years. It usually takes people ten to twenty years to become a Great Solar Godfiend after leaving the mountain,” said Meng Chuan. “Alright, you should hurry back. Green Mountain Prefecture City needs you. When an Archean Mountain Godfiend arrives, you will need to receive him.”

“Senior Brother, I’ll be troubling you to take care of this area then,” said Wang Fucheng before leaving.

Meng Chuan retracted his aura and silently waited for a Godfiend—that would take over his current job—on a nearby tree.

...

Green Mountain Prefecture city was currently in an uproar. The government office had sent out a series of orders. The entire city knew that the demons had been defeated and that they had won! They were completely safe, and everybody could leave the tunnels now.

“What? We won?”

In a Dao Academy’s castle, the Dao Academy dean, lecturers, soldiers, many retired veterans, and a group of disciples—that had reached the Marrow Cleansing realm—were somewhat stunned.

“Logically speaking, the city wall can’t hold the demons for too long. The demons will storm the city, and citizens will have to fend for themselves.” A lecturer holding a spear was filled with delight. “I never expected that all of our efforts were wasted. We won without even needing to risk our lives. The demons have completely lost!”

“Since the demons dared to attack, they should have confidence in defeating our Green Mountain Prefecture City’s Godfiends.” A middle-aged woman who had two swords on her back sighed in amazement. “We’ve won without the city being destroyed. There must be a special reason. Could it be that a powerful Godfiend lives in our Green Mountain Prefecture City?”

“Powerful Godfiends patrol the world, and they might appear in any city. It’s also possible for them to appear in Green Mountain Prefecture.”

“Haha, this is a blessing for our Green Mountain Prefecture City. It’s a blessing for Green Mountain Prefecture!”

Everyone laughed extremely happily. Those who had served in the military knew how difficult it was to fight demons! When a horde of demons surged over, humans needed to risk their lives as they defended.

...

All the important areas—six Dao Academies, four Godfiend family clan residences, and the government armory—in Green Mountain Prefecture City had forces stationed nearby.

After all, demons arrived very quickly. Most mortal soldiers in the city would have to travel over ten kilometers to reach the northern city wall. By the time they arrived, the city walls would have long been destroyed. Therefore, the soldiers and veterans they were close to the city walls were responsible for protecting them. People in other areas of the city relied on the terrain to fight the demons. They had to stall for time so that reinforcements could come. Only then could they achieve victory.

Everybody had been prepared to sacrifice themselves. However, they won without even seeing the demons.

“Let’s go. Let’s go to the north gate and see what happened.”

“How did we defeat the demons?”

“I wonder how many demons attacked our Green Mountain Prefecture City.”

Although they knew they had won, many people couldn’t help but rush towards the north gate.

The city gates remained closed, but people could still head up the city wall and take a look. Everybody was shocked when they saw the frozen demons.

Thirty thousand demon ice sculptures were truly a sight to behold. Many soldiers that had served in the military had never seen 30,000 frozen demons.

...

An hour after the demon invasion, an Archean Mountain Godfiend arrived.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two figures came to Crescent Lake. Wang Fucheng was waiting there when he saw a thin man and an elder.

“Senior Brother Qu.” Wang Fucheng immediately greeted one of them. He only knew the thin man, but he didn’t know the elder’s identity.

“Okay.” The thin man glanced at the demon monarchs’ corpses before asking, “Who killed the demon monarchs?”

“Senior Brother Meng was passing by and saved the entire city,” said Wang Fucheng.

“Oh?” The thin man nodded slightly. “Where’s Senior Brother Meng?”

“About three kilometers north of the city. He’s watching the World Entrance,” said Wang Fucheng.

“Brother Guo, handle the demon monarchs’ corpses. I’ll watch over the World Entrance,” said the thin man. In terms of strength, he was slightly stronger than the elder.

“Alright.” The elder smiled.

The thin man’s figure vanished as he headed north.

...

On the barren mountain, the thin man met Meng Chuan.

“Senior Brother Meng,” said the thin man politely.

“Senior Brother Qu?” Meng Chuan had not seen him before. After all, Qu had left the mountain over 30 years ago. However, he had memorized the faces of every single Archean Mountain disciple.

At Archean Mountain, if both parties had similar strength, both parties addressed each other as senior brothers or senior sisters. This was a form of respect for each other.

North River Pass was different. Everyone at North River Pass were teammates that had fought life-and-death battles together. Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were rookies, so they addressed everyone else as senior brothers and sisters.

“Many of our fellow disciples haven’t returned to the mountain in a long time, but we’ve heard your name,” said the thin man with a smile. “A perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body and the mastery of a Black Metal Sutra move. You are already stronger than us who have left the mountain for decades.”

“I just left the mountain. I can’t compare with the contributions and achievements all my seniors have made in the decades after they left the mountain,” said Meng Chuan.

“Haha.” The thin man flipped his hand and took out a purple token. On it was the word “Seeker.” “Senior Brother Meng, let’s get down to business first. From now on, the World Entrance will be taken over by our Earth Net.”

“Alright.” Meng Chuan nodded.

Earth Net...

Roughly 30 percent of Archean Mountain’s Godfiends were in Earth Net. They were in charge of pursuing demons and the Skydemon Sect, and to search for new World Entrances.

Earth Net even commandeered the imperial government’s intelligence network. Countless mortals served it.

The Seeker position was also a part of Earth Net! However, it was a more special role than a Patroller. Most Seekers were Marquis and Regis Godfiends. Earth Net was a very powerful organization, so they could easily deal with many demons and demon monarchs. Whenever they encountered demon monarchs and Skydemons they couldn’t deal with, they would seek reinforcements. A Patroller would rush over and kill the powerful demon monarchs and Skydemons.
