Chapter 146: Diamond Body
In a quiet room in the manor, Meng Chuan sat cross-legged as he studied his body using the Power of Essence Soul with a mystic technique.
Even though his Essence Soul had reached the Kinesis stage, he had to use a mystic technique to see the microscopic world. He could see the countless particles that made up his muscles, tendons, and bones. These particles varied in size and color. However, all the tiny particles contained lightning within them due to Meng Chuan having a Lightning Devastator Fiend Body. Thus, it was extremely difficult to cultivate these tiny particles.
After six months of cultivationârelying on the Power of Essence Soul and his Saber Soukâhe finally refined all the particles in his body. It had taken him an unimaginable amount of Quintessential Essence to accomplish this feat. Currently, he was about to make them synchronized.
His ever-depleting Quintessential Essence would be replenished through the consumption of Thousand Star Pills.
His entire body, be it a strand of hair or a drop of blood, began transforming. Countless particles in his body began fusing together. Originally, the transformation of a single particle didnât have much effect on his body, but with his Saber Soul aiding him, the particles affected his body greatly after attaining synchronization.
It was just like having an army of 10,000 people. If the army wasnât disciplined, these 10,000 soldiers would have limited combat efficiency. If they executed orders without a margin of error, their combat efficiency would soar.
It was the same with the body! All the particles in his body were completely synchronized after cultivating them. His body had become one! According to the information he had received from the body cultivation legacy, this meant he had attained a Diamond Body! He had reached the Diamond realm!
Meng Chuan opened his eyes. He felt like his body was completely transparent; his skin was emitting a golden jade glow. Upon careful inspection, one could see a thin membrane above his skin. He wasnât doing anything, but this membrane surrounded his body. This membrane had been formed by the invisible force emitted by countless particlesâwhich manifested after the particles became synchronized.
According to the legacy, oneâs body will naturally emit the Diamond Force once the Diamond Body is attained. The Diamond Force provides some level of invulnerability.
Meng Chuan unsheathed Demon Slayer and slashed at his arm. The attack was stopped by the Diamond Force. This piqued Meng Chuanâs curiosity.
I want to see how powerful the Diamond Body and Diamond Force are.
Meng Chuan was speechless after an hour of experimentation.
Perhaps it was because of his perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body and his body cultivation; he could unleash power roughly 70% of his Great Solar Quintessential Essence-fueled strength when using only his Saber Soul.
He now had a terrifying defense. Just his skin alone could match the protection provided by the robes he had chosen at Archean Mountain. His defense would be much stronger if one included his tendons, muscles, and etc. If he and another person were to engage in a one-on-one battleâwhere both parties had equal strengthâthe other person would be doomed once their armor was damaged. In contrast, he would probably suffer a few minor wounds with his Diamond Body. It would be difficult to pierce through the muscles. He would recover from these minor wounds quickly.
The life-preservation means provided by the body cultivation system is truly terrifying. The fourth realm is known as the Undying realm. The body would no longer have any vital points. One would be completely fine even if their head or heart were to be stabbed. One would recover from such an injury within a blink of an eye. The Blood Droplet realmâthe fifth realmâallows one to regenerate their body from a drop of blood.
Meng Chuan couldnât help but sigh in amazement.
However, the Quintessential Essence cultivation system also elevates our life-preservation means and destructive abilities once we reach the Darkstar and Incessant realms.
Two different paths laid before him.
The body cultivation system was mainly for melee combat. It provided one with terrifying lifeforce. As long as one was alive, they could maintain peak lifeforce, although their destructive capabilities were inferior to those that followed the Quintessential Essence cultivation system.
The Quintessential Essence cultivation system provided one insane destructive power! They had weaker life-preservation means, and their lifeforce would gradually drop as time passed.
My body is much stronger now. I can burst out with even more Quintessential Essence since my meridians are now much stronger as well. Iâm currently twice as strong as when I cleared the Nine Mystical Caves.
Meng Chuan was very happy. Disregarding the usage of forbidden spells or his Essence Soul, he was two times stronger than when he had left the mountain. Such an increase in strength was extremely rare. If the body cultivation system werenât limited to the Blood Droplet realm in the human world, it wouldâve been considered one of the best opportunities inside Archean Eon Grotto-Heaven.
After his experimentation, Meng Chuan closed his eyes and refilled his expended Quintessential Essence pool.
Meng Chuan absorbed wisps of lightning and baneful aura from the void. As his body grew stronger, he could absorb more lightning and baneful aura. The absorption of lightning and baneful aura mostly depended on the body. It didnât have much to do with Quintessential Essence.
Yuan Stateâs Green Mountain Prefecture was over 150 kilometers from North River Pass.
At this moment, outside Green Mountain Prefecture City, a black-robed figure silently crawled out from the ground. The figureâs head was wrapped in robes; one could barely see a pair of green eyes.
The figure stared at the distant Green Mountain Prefecture City. The city gates had already been shut for the night. Soldiers patrolled around the city walls, however, they were unable to see the black-robed figure a kilometer away.
The black-robed figure could clearly see two large words above the city gates: Green Mountain.
Green Mountain? This is the Great Zhou Dynastyâs Green Mountain Prefecture?
After determining their current position, the figure burrowed into the ground silently and transformed into a pangolin. He moved underground at extremely fast speeds. Moments later, he arrived at the depths of a barren mountain roughly three kilometers away from the prefecture. The Yuan State was a mountainous region; thus, many forts were built in the mountains. Only a few large cities could be found on the rare flatlands in the mountainous region.
A distorted World Entranceâabout 1000 feet longâlaid inside the barren mountain. Two figures stood by the World Entrance.
The pangolin crawled out from underground and transformed into a black-robed figure. The figure walked into the World Entrance and entered the Demon Realm.
The two demon monarchs beside the World Entrance smiled.
âWatch the area carefully. Kill any humans that approach immediately. Before our invasion, we mustnât reveal this World Entranceâs existence. If itâs exposed, His Majesty wonât spare us.â
âDonât worry. Few humans come to the mountain at night. Nothing will happen.â
After the black-robed figure entered the Demon Realm, he saw a demon army gathering. He also saw many demon monarchs and a greater demon monarch sitting on a throne. The greater demon monarch had a humanoid body and a snake tail.
âYour Majesty.â The black-robed figure stepped forward and knelt respectfully.
âHave you investigated the unstable World Entrance? Which part of the human world is it connected to?â asked the demon monarch indifferently.
âGreen Mountain Prefecture of the Great Zhou Dynastyâs Yuan State,â said the black-robed figure. âFrom the World Entrance, we are roughly three kilometers away from Green Mountain Prefecture City.â
âVery good.â The demon monarch smiled before he waved his black palm.
The black-robed figure stood obediently among the other demon monarchs.
A huge bird flew over from afar; on its back stood a three-headed demon monarch.
After the bird landed, the three-headed demon monarch came in front of the greater demon monarch. He bowed respectfully. âGreetings Greater Demon Monarch Avaricehell. Iâm Jumo.â
âI believe you have been briefed, am I right?â Greater Demon Monarch Avaricehell sat on his throne, his black fingers resting on the armrest as he looked down at the three-headed demon monarch.
âYes, I am willing to enter the human world,â said Jumo respectfully.
âMy fief doesnât have a demon monarch that can enter the third Firmament immediately. Thatâs why I borrowed you from Greater Demon Monarch Thousand Poisons,â said Avaricehell. âThis World Entrance wonât exist for long, so we have to attack as soon as possible. Three kilometers from the World Entrance is Green Mountain Prefecture of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I will arrange for five second Firmament demon monarchs and 30,000 demons to join you in this attack.â
âYes,â said the three-headed demon monarch respectfully. âOnce the attack succeeds, I will infiltrate the human world. Iâm not in a hurry to return.â
âVery good.â Avaricehell nodded. âItâs the middle of the night in the human world. The mortals are sleeping soundly. Itâs the best time to attack. Head out immediately.â

The armyâcomprising the three-headed demon monarch, five second Firmament demon monarchs, and 30,000 mortal demonsâwas much stronger than the army that had attacked Eastcalm Prefecture.
Soon, the demon army swarmed the World Entrance like a flood. They didnât hesitate to follow the directions provided by Pangoswim and charged towards Green Mountain Prefecture City.
