Chapter 217: Particle Space

The new year was very lively.

Liu Yebai happily brought his grandson and granddaughter out to shop, carrying each child with one hand. In midair, a gray bird followed him. It constantly looked down and watched the two young ones closely. Ever since the two were born, this third Firmament avian demon monarch became their secret guardian! With the twin’s grandfather protecting them in the open and the avian demon monarch protecting them in secret, Meng Chuan and his wife felt at ease.

They both felt like they owed their children a normal childhood. However, their circumstances didn’t permit it. They spent a lot of time cultivating and needed to travel everywhere. All they could do was hire two more women to take good care of the children.

“Dad, you have to be careful when out with the twins.” Liu Qiyue and Meng Chuan had just returned when they bumped into Liu Yebai.

“Don’t worry about me.” Liu Yebai chuckled. He had originally helped Meng Dajiang manage the Earth Net’s intelligence network in Eastcalm Prefecture, but he was now focused on taking care of his grandson and granddaughter. As for his good brother, Meng Dajiang? He naturally felt sorry for him. Meng Dajiang had taken a leave of absence a few days ago to visit them before returning to Eastcalm Prefecture hurriedly. After all, he was in charge of Earth Net’s intelligence network in Eastcalm Prefecture.

As the Meng family clan leader, he couldn’t be as willful as Liu Yebai.

“Ah Chuan.” In the study room, Liu Qiyue frowned at her husband—who was preparing his paint—and said, “For the past few months, we’ve had more rescue missions than in the past, but have you noticed something? The number of demon monarchs attacking cities in the area that we are responsible for is gradually decreasing.

“However, most demon monarchs have long retreated by the time we arrived. There aren’t many demon monarchs that we can kill,” said Liu Qiyue. “They are clearly here, so why has their attack frequency decreased?”

“When you were pregnant, I acted alone. I did my best to rescue cities and kill the demons. Back then, my speed was faster than now.” Meng Chuan explained with a smile, “The demons aren’t stupid. They will gain critical information from every attack. The demon monarchs will attack for shorter periods of time and retreat even earlier. Therefore, we often find no demon monarchs by the time we arrive. This is also a good thing because the earlier they retreat, the less damage to the city.”

“I’m saying that the demon monarchs’ attacking frequency is reducing overall,” said Liu Qiyue. “Don’t you think something’s wrong?”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan indifferently said, “Qiyue, there are far more demon monarchs in the Demon Realm than Godfiends. How many demon monarchs are there in the various prefectures and counties? The Demon Realm hasn’t truly shown its strength yet!”

“What do you mean?” Liu Qiyue was alarmed.

“If you were a demon and chose to attack the human world, would you use your full strength from the very beginning?” asked Meng Chuan. “I would first send a scouting force into the human world to grasp the enemy situation. Isn’t that expected?”

“You mean that... the demon monarchs currently in the human world are just scouts?” Liu Qiyue’s heart tightened.

“We’ve reinforcing cities across two states. The Wu State and Qian State are large bustling states. I’ve estimated that there are about 30 third Firmament demon monarchs in a prefecture on average. Of course, more than half have died,” said Meng Chuan. “However, there are over a thousand prefectures in the human world! There are about 30,000 third Firmament demon monarchs in the human world right now. What does this number mean to the Demon Realm as a whole?”

Liu Qiyue nodded solemnly. “Yes, I understand where you are coming from.”

“Don’t worry. The various states have several Marquis Godfiends. There are several peak Godfiend teams. No matter how many demon monarchs come, they will only be slaughtered,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.

“The demons are sinister and cunning. If this batch of demon monarchs are only scouts, things won’t be simple when their true army begins invading the human world.” Liu Qiyue was worried.

“What’s there to worry about? The demons are so much stronger than humans. Both of us know that victory is destined to be very difficult to obtain,” said Meng Chuan with a relaxed smile. “All we need to do is become stronger. The stronger we are, the more demons we can deal with. By the way, Qiyue, your strength has increased significantly.”

Liu Qiyue’s eyes lit up as she nodded. “That’s right. After that phoenix feather’s power fused with me, my divine body became much stronger. Likewise for my flames. I have even greater affinity with the Dao of Fire now. After I gave birth, I gained some vague insights into the Realm of Dao.”

“Realm of Dao?” Meng Chuan was shocked. After reaching the peak of Saber Soul, he had always been stumped by the Saber Dao realm.

Was his wife gaining insights into the Realm of Dao before him?

Unbeknownst to him, Liu Qiyue had actually reached the Realm of Soul before him.

“Yes.” Liu Qiyue nodded. “My Phoenix Flames are split into Flames of Nirvana and Flames of Life. I think I should be able to reach the Realm of Dao within half a year.”

Meng Chuan was overjoyed when he heard that. In present times, the stronger his wife was, the better.

“However, condensing an Essence Soul is a little troublesome,” said Liu Qiyue. “The Flames of Life nurtures my soul for extended periods, allowing my soul to grow stronger and gradually condense into an Essence Soul. However, it will take a long time. The other method is to use Phoenix’s Nirvana. When undergoing nirvana, one’s strength will soar, allowing one to gain insights into a higher realm. The Flames of Nirvana can also transform one’s soul.”

Meng Chuan nodded.

This was the case with the Phoenix Divine Body. Casting Phoenix’s Nirvana consumed one’s lifespan, but their strength would increase rapidly. This made many Godfiends envious and jealous. Many Godfiends found it difficult to raise their strength, and it was difficult to seek answers from one’s inner self. As for Phoenix Divine Body experts, they could rely on their bloodline to soar in strength.

Phoenix. Meng Chuan suddenly thought of the feather. Was the Phoenix Divine Body related to the original owner of the feather? Perhaps that was why it was so heaven-defying. Just the phoenix bloodline alone was enough to become one of twelve transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies.

...

In a chamber at night, Meng Chuan sat cross-legged.

Boom!

Flames rose from his body, and after a long while, he retracted them. Frost then covered his body, and after a long while, it dissipated. Next, his body began emitting golden light. When it faded, a faint black glow covered his body...

Meng Chuan’s body produced all sorts of phenomena as he cultivated the physical body cultivation system. This cultivation system was stronger than the Godfiend, demon monarch, and Skydemon cultivation systems. However, it was difficult and harsh to cultivate.

One needed Cosmos Crystals to gain basic mastery of the cultivation system! One needed to reach the peak of the Realm of Soul and a third-level Essence Soul to cultivate the Divine Power realm.

Rumble...

Meng Chuan viewed his body through his Essence Soul. With the aid of a mystic technique, he could enter the microscopic world. When one reached the Diamond realm, they would discover that their body was composed of countless tiny particles. These particles varied in size and color.

When one reached the Divine Power realm, they could observe what was inside the particles! Every particle was a world!

Particles were boundless and vast worlds!

In the middle of a particle space, there was an extremely tiny point. This point occupied about a trillionth of the entire particle space. Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul could only vaguely sense it. In the vast particle space around the point, countless dots of light orbited the tiny point.

As Meng Chuan observed this particle space, the particle space changed. He then began cultivating the particle space with the Divine Power realm formula.

The third level of the physical body cultivation system required one to cultivate these mysterious particle spaces. Terrifying amounts of energy was required to finish cultivating these countless particle spaces.
