284 Awaken, Everyone!

Within the 26 enormous dark-blue ice blocks were 26 humans.

As the dark-blue ice blocks melted, the human experts within began to awaken. Qin Wu, Luo Tang, and the two Dao Protectors watched with excitement.

“Huh?”

“This is…”

One human expert after another stood up. At first, they were somewhat puzzled, but soon, they were completely awake.

“Senior Brother Qin, how long have I been asleep for?” asked a white-robed man. “Five hundred years? Eight hundred years?” The other human experts also looked at Qin Wu and company.

“Everyone.” Qin Wu said, “It’s the 853rd year since the demons first invaded the human world.”

Many of the men and women-that had just woken up-were enlightened.

“I’ve been asleep for over 500 years.”

“Three hundred years…”

“Time is the greatest enemy. How many people I know are still alive in this world?”

The men and women had mixed feelings.

However, two recently-awakened experts were somewhat puzzled. A plump white-haired elder said in puzzlement, “Junior Brother Qin, you have already become a Supremacy? Also, demons invaded 853 years ago? What race are the demons?”

“Junior Brother Qin, what’s with the demon invasion?” Another goateed elder was puzzled as well.

“Peng Mu, Lunatic Yun,” said a middle-aged scholarly man who had just awoken, “The two of you have been asleep for 982 years. Millennium Instant is one of the core secret arts of our Archean Mountain. In every Regis Godfiend generation, only those with strength comparable to a Creation realm expert will enter Millennium Hall to ‘sleep’ when they are close to the end of their lifespans. This is also to save some combat strength for Archean Mountain. About 100 years after the two of you slumbered, the demons invaded.

“The strength of the Demon Realm is much stronger than that of the human world. Therefore, Archean Mountain decided that all Regis Godfiends will enter a deep slumber 50 years before the end of their lifespans. Two hundred years after the demons first invaded, Archean Mountain sensed that the situation wasn’t turning for the better. Thus, after all the Supremacies and Dao Protectors in Archean Mountain came to an agreement, we shared the Millenium Instant mystic technique with Two World Island and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven.”

“Master.” Immediately, the white-haired elder and the goateed elder respectfully bowed when they saw the middle-aged man.

“Senior Brother Li.” Qin Wu and Luo Tang also bowed slightly.

The middle-aged man was Supremacy Li Guan. He was the strongest and the oldest expert here. He wasn’t too far away from the end of his 2,000-year lifespan. Thus, he was in a deep slumber most of the time.

The Millennium Instant mystic technique allowed them to awaken mid-way, but they could only “steal” a thousand years from the worldly laws.

“Everyone is awake.” Li Guan swept his gaze around. “This means that the situation is so bad that we have to participate.”

The eyes of these awakened Regis Godfiends were filled with fighting spirit. These were Archean Mountain’s many powerful Regis Godfiends that had lived in different periods over the past 1,000 years. For example, Peng Mu and Yun Jianhai were Regis Godfiends that had reigned supreme in the world 1,000 years ago. These Godfiends were almost 400 years old if one didn’t count the time they were in a deep slumber. They were very strong and had profound moves. The outside world believed that they had died of old age! In reality, they had gone into a deep slumber when they only had a few decades of their lifespans left.

Even now, very few Regis Godfiends died in battle. Hundreds of years ago, the situation had been much better. Almost all Regis Godfiends died of old age. In fact, ever since they obtained the Millennium Instant mystic technique, the three major sects’ Regis Godfiends had all entered a deep slumber.

“Do you need us to join the battle?”

“Has it already reached the point where all the Regis Godfiends have to awaken?” asked the Regis Godfiends.

Meng Tiange said, “Everyone, the entire human race needs your protection. We need you to kill the demon monarchs.”

The three great sects were ready to strike.

Archean Mountain, in a hall.

“Senior Brother Li, this is our temporary arrangement. Is there anything you want to change?” Qin Wu handed a dossier to Li Guan.

Li Guan took it and quickly flipped through it. As a Creation Supremacy, he naturally read it very quickly. “Seven hundred fourth Firmament demon monarchs, a million demon monarchs… The demons really want to destroy the foundation of our human race in one fell swoop.” Li Guan read the dossier calmly. “There are now 61 large cities in the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are 13 Regis Godfiends in this era, 25 Regis Godfiends who were in slumber, nine Guardian Divine Beasts, two Dao Protectors, three Creation Supremacies, and 73 Marquis Godfiends.

“There are a total of ten experts with the combat strength of a Creation realm expert. However, other than the three of us, the rest are at the Creation realm threshold.” Li Guan looked at the dossier and nodded slightly. “This plan is considered safe. I’m supposed to preside over Archean Mountain?”

“Archean Mountain is the last hope of humanity,” said the illusory Luo Tang. “No matter how strong the demons are, we can retreat to Archean Mountain. Archean Mountain cannot be lost.”

Li Guan nodded slightly. “If we are forced into a corner, we shall end the world. We will guard Archean Mountain alone.”
