“Supremacy, please help me set up an array formation to envelop the entire Three Mountain Lake.” A voice sounded in Li Guan’s ears. “I need to cultivate here for a period of time. I don’t wish to be disturbed. The array formation just needs to be able to prevent others from spying on me.”
Li Guan nodded. “Alright.”
It wasn’t difficult for him to set up an array formation. Every super-large city pass had a large-scale array formation set up. Meng Chuan’s requirements for this array formation were much lower. All this array formation had to do was guard against prying eyes and disturbances.
“I’ll quickly arrange the array formation. When the time comes, I’ll get King Feather Dragon to protect you,” said Li Guan. “Meng Chuan, are you breaking through to become a Creation Supremacy?”
Meng Chuan was silent for a moment before he said, “I’m not sure either.”
Chapter 487 - One Year and Two Months
“You’re not sure?” Li Guan was somewhat dazed. He isn’t even sure if he’s breaking through? Is this something one should be unsure about?
“While I was cultivating, a situation that has never occurred in the Godfiend cultivation system happened.” Meng Chuan’s voice rang out. “I’ll explain it in detail after I finish cultivating.”
“Alright, focus on your cultivation.” Li Guan was alarmed as well. An accident happened during his cultivation? This wasn’t something that they could afford to be careless about. “I’ll set up the array formation immediately.”
Meng Chuan sat cross-legged on Lake Heart Island. His dantian space constantly absorbed the rich liquefied Heaven and Earth powers.
What’s happening? Meng Chuan looked inwardly at his dantian. The black hole was like a bottomless pit as it devoured the Heaven and Earth powers.
Archean Eon Realm’s predecessors created the Godfiend cultivation system. Meng Chuan thought about the cultivation system. Core Cloud realm, Indestructible realm, Great Solar realm, Darkstar realm, and Seamless realm. These are the five major Godfiend realms. They all follow one core concept. By refining the Heaven and Earth powers and condensing them in one’s dantian, one’s Quintessential Essence will become purer as the density increases.
His predecessors created the cultivation system in a straightforward manner, but the creation process had been very difficult. Many early Godfiends had failed and died during the creation of the cultivation system. Only after generations of experimentation did they complete the Godfiend cultivation system and produce many types of Godfiend body formulations.
The Seamless realm is the limit of Quintessential Essence compression. If Quintessential Essence is to be improved further, then the path of compression is no longer usable. It isn’t feasible to achieve a qualitative change in Quintessential Essence once it reaches the limit. Therefore, our predecessors used another method to improve their Quintessential Essence. With their Source of the Seamless Realm as the foundation, they created their own grotto-heavens and reached the Creation realm!
After that, their grotto-heavens will transform into inner heaven and earth, turning them into an Imperial Lord. As for me… With my seventh-level Essence Soul and my paramount technique’s laws controlling the Source of the Seamless realm, it collapsed and formed a black hole. In the past, the Source of the Seamless realm represented the limit of Quintessential Essence compression. However, I seem to have induced some special changes.
Meng Chuan was very cautious about this unexpected event. While it was a good thing to achieve unprecedented changes, it also represented stepping into the unknown. In humanity’s history, many of Meng Chuan’s predecessors had died to create the Godfiend cultivation system. Although Meng Chuan had tenacious vitality and a high technique realm, he was still extremely cautious. He didn’t even bother letting his Essence Soul avatars outside of his body. If anything happened to his main body, his Essence Soul avatars would die!
“Meng An, from today onwards, guard the array formation here,” instructed Li Guan. “Guard your father well.”
“My father?” Meng An was alarmed.
“You can go closer and take a look,” said Li Guan.
Meng An immediately flew towards the middle of the lake. As he approached the dark vortex’s center, he saw the gathered Heaven and Earth powers surging towards the dark vortex. With his Essence Soul perception domain, he saw the white-haired man sitting cross-legged in the middle of the vortex.
“Dad,” said Meng An.
“An’er, you just have to stop outsiders from approaching,” said Meng Chuan via voice transmission.
“Alright, I’ll definitely guard you well.” After Meng Chuan learned that his father was the one who had caused the huge commotion, he was naturally concerned and anxious. However, he still did his best to protect him.
Time passed.
Meng An sat cross-legged on Three Mountain Lake’s shore. He controlled the entire array formation to protect his father.
“Dad…” Meng An looked at Lake Heart Island. A terrifying, dark aura erupted from it.
m
What is Dad cultivating? Why is his aura much more terrifying than that of a Creation Supremacy? Meng An stared at Lake Heart Island from afar. The black aura erupted from the island as lightning flashed within the dark vortex. I think I’ll die if I approach it.
Due to his high realm, his perception was very accurate.
Boom!
Occasionally, lightning would shoot out in all directions, transforming the surroundings into a lightning dominion.
After half a month, the lightning was confined to the endless darkness. The darkness made Meng An’s heart palpitate.
Dad must have restrained his strength. When cultivating, his energy is kept within a five-kilometer radius, thought Meng An to himself. However, is Dad already this strong?
Meng An had many fortuitous encounters. He was one of the human world’s strongest Regis Godfiend. His father, Meng Chuan, was also a Regis Godfiend. So why was the strength difference between the two so great?
Just his father’s leaking energy was enough to kill him?
Three Mountain Lake had been dark for a long time. The black clouds and lightning naturally attracted the attention of many people. All were extremely puzzled by the phenomenon, be they mortal or Godfiend. Although the array formation enveloped Meng Chuan’s surrounding 50 kilometers, Meng Chuan’s absorption range was just too great. The Heaven and Earth Powers from Jiang State Capital—which was a few hundred kilometers away-collectively surged towards Three Mountain Lake.
I wonder what happened. Archean Mountain has forbidden all parties from investigating. Bai Yaoyue’s Essence Soul avatar flew high in the sky. When it passed by, she glanced at Three Mountain Lake before leaving. The three sects were now working together to fight a common enemy.
Archean Mountain had forbidden all parties from investigating matters that happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Thus, it wasn’t appropriate for the other sects’ Creation Supremacies to barge in. “Nothing is turning up from our investigations.” The black-robed North Sense stared at Three Mountain Lake from afar. The demons had limited strength in the human world. They were unable to break through the obstructions that were King Feather Dragon, Meng An, and the array formation. They would only be sending themselves to their deaths if they tried to charge in.
Whoosh.
The black-robed North Sense embodiment dissipated.
There must be a huge secret in Three Mountain Lake. A merchant caravan was advancing. In a luxurious carriage, a middle-aged man lifted the curtain and looked at Three Mountain Lake from afar. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile. However, I don’t have the right to see this big secret. If I see it, I’ll die.
The middle-aged man’s gaze swept across the merchant caravan, and his smile became even more radiant. The human world is really interesting. The more things I experience here, the more interesting I find it compared to the Demon Realm. Seven emotions and six desires? I still have to than
k Imperial Lord Starquix for forcing me to come to the human world. In the human world, I might be able to cultivate the karma lineage to the Heaven Earth realm.
I can still live for a long time. No rush, no rush. The middle-aged man smiled. The three Imperial Lords have arranged for two old fellows that are about to die to enter the human world via possession. They still haven’t given up on their plans. Humph. After all, they know that I’m not good at close combat. I’m only skilled in using karmic mystic techniques. The middle-aged man was rather pleased. His smooth cultivation made him look forward to the future.
In the blink of an eye, one year and two months passed.
Li Guan’s Essence Soul avatar had been stationed at Three Mountain Lake for a long time because he was nervous. Meng Chuan had been absorbing the Heaven and Earth powers for too long.
Back when I became a Creation Supremacy and formed my grotto-heaven, I only absorbed the Heaven and Earth powers for three days. Li Guan remained secretly alarmed. Meng Chuan has been absorbing the Heaven and Earth powers for one year and two months. The commotion he has caused is much greater too. He has absorbed at least 1,000 times more Heaven and Earth powers than I did when I was creating my grotto-heaven. What will happen when such a large amount of Heaven and Earth powers are gathered in his body?
Suddenly,
The rich Heaven and Earth powers that enveloped Three Mountain Lake rapidly gathered at the dark vortex’s core. The world began to calm down. The dark clouds dissipated. The sky turned clear, and Three Mountain Lake was extremely calm.
A white-haired man sat cross-legged on Lake Heart Island—which was now only 30 feet wide. The island had turned dark-cyan and crystalline.
“Dad.” Meng An revealed a look of delight.
“Let’s go over,” said Li Guan.
Li Guan’s Essence Soul avatar and Meng An quickly streaked across the sky and flew towards Meng Chuan. They landed on the lake and stared at Meng Chuan. Li Guan and Meng An felt their hearts skip a beat when they looked at Meng Chuan from a close distance.
The white-haired Meng Chuan opened his eyes.
“Meng Chuan, how is it?” asked Li Guan.
“There are some changes,” said Meng Chuan.
After Meng Chuan discovered that his transformation was complete, he first checked his lifespan.
Regis Godfiends had 500-year lifespans. Their lifespans could be reduced when affected by physical injuries and other factors. If they maintained their body well, they might live a little longer. However, a Regis Godfiend’s lifespan usually spanned 500 years.
Creation realm experts had 2,000-year lifespans.
Meng Chuan was somewhat puzzled. How did my lifespan extend to 5,000 years?
Chapter 488 - Supremacy Level
One’s lifespan wasn’t determined by the individual world’s laws, but the vast River of Spacetime’s laws.
There were many different cultivation systems. Some cultivation systems-like the Shura cultivation system, the Cosmos Body cultivation system, and many other special cultivation systems-granted one a 2,000-year lifespan once they reached the Creation realm! At the Imperial Lord realm, one would have a 10,000-year lifespan. The world was just like how one would gradually age. Although the past was over, the future held infinite possibilities. These were the River of Spacetime’s most basic operation rules.
Breaking the River of Spacetime’s basic operation rules was an unbelievable achievement. Just how powerful was a Sage Becoming realm expert—who followed the Cosmos Body cultivation system? Yet, they only had a 2,000-year lifespan. My lifespan is longer than that of a Creation Supremacy, but slightly shorter than an Imperial Lord’s. Meng Chuan’s heart suddenly stirred with excitement. After becoming Archean Mountain’s Sect Proprietor, he had read many of Archean Mountain’s secret documents. Due to his wife, he had also read about phoenixes. The information in that dossier has recorded a situation somewhat similar to mine.
As he thought that, Meng Chuan carefully inspected his body’s changes.
His dantian space had completely transformed into a black hole. Rings of pure lightning Quintessential Essence surrounded the black hole. The Bloodblade Disc and Grotto-Heaven Magic Bead had returned to his dantian space, However, they could only reside at the black hole’s periphery-where the lightning Quintessential Essence was released.
My body… Meng Chuan sensed every particle space with his Essence Soul thoughts.
Every particle space had turned into a black hole. Lightning Quintessential Essence revolved around each black hole. Every particle possessed strength even more terrifying than before. Meng Chuan’s body had gained terrifying strength.
I feel like I can easily tear open the world membrane just by extending my hand. Meng Chuan could sense the world membrane’s fragility with his domain.
Although an ordinary Regis Godfiend’s body becomes stronger after breaking through to the Creation realm, it won’t be as astonishingly strong as mine. Is this newfound strength related to my original Blood Droplet realm body, or is it related to my paramount technique and seventh-level Essence Soul? Meng Chuan had too many questions. This was a realm that no Godfiend in Archean Eon Realm had ever reached. After reaching this realm, Meng Chuan had far too many questions. However, he could only answer them by himself as he explored his new capabilities. Li Guan’s Essence Soul avatar asked, “Meng Chuan, what has changed?”
“Let’s go back to Archean Mountain before I slowly figure my body’s changes out,” said Meng Chuan.
He had yet to comprehend his current strength. He was even more puzzled about his future path. How was he to advance in the future?
Li Guan nodded. “Alright, let’s talk when we return to Archean Mountain.”
“An’er.” Meng Chuan looked at his son and was very pleased. He smiled and said, “It’s been hard on you for the past year.”
Meng An shook his head immediately. “Not at all.” He was very happy that he could do something for his father. After all, his father had guided him since he was young.
“Go back to Jiang State Capital and rest well,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “I’ll make a trip to Archean Mountain first.”
“Okay, Dad,” replied Meng An immediately.
Li Guan waved his hand, causing many disk arrays and other components to fly over from all directions. Li Guan waved his hand again, storing them away. “My Essence Soul avatar will continue patrolling the area. Meng Chuan, go directly to Archean Mountain,” said Li Guan with a smile. He and Meng An flew away.
Meng Chuan only moved when he saw them leave.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived in Archean Mountain’s Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
What’s happened to my movement technique? Meng Chuan frowned slightly as he puzzled over the peculiarities in his movement technique.
“Meng Chuan.” Li Guan, the illusory Qin Wu, and the illusory Luo Tang were waiting for him.
“You are now…” Qin Wu and Luo Tang also noticed Meng Chuan’s changes. When they saw Meng Chuan, they felt fear and pressure.
“I might have broken through to the Creation realm,” said Meng Chuan. Following that, he shook his head in confusion. “However, I still have many questions. I’m very confused.”
“Confused?”
“What confusion can there be after a breakthrough?”
“The various problems that occur in the Godfiend cultivation system should be recorded in the books.” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang looked at Meng Chuan strangely. Meng Chuan shook his head slightly. “Let me confirm if I have really broken through to the Creation realm.”
Meng Chuan, Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang arrived at Archean Mountain’s nameless mountain peak.
Boom!
With a wave of his hand, a lightning bolt shot out and tore through two world membranes. It tore open a passageway that was hundreds of wide. Through it, one could see the scenery on the other side.
“I’ll see if I can enter the World Gap.” Meng Chuan flew towards the op
ening, hoping that he could enter the World Gap.
His right hand extended towards the opening, but an invisible barrier strongly repelled it. Huh?
“The World Gap is repelling you. You are no longer a Regis Godfiend,” said Qin Wu. He then curiously asked, “Can’t you determine if you have reached the Creation realm by checking your lifespan or your created grotto-heaven?”
“I was cultivating normally,” said Meng Chuan. “Who would’ve known that my Source of the Seamless Realm would suddenly collapse completely when I was compressing it? After collapsing, it turned into a black hole.” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were shocked by his words. “A black hole?”
“You didn’t create a grotto-heaven?” asked Qin Wu anxiously.
Meng Chuan frowned. “No.”
Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang looked at each other and realized the problem.
“This will be troublesome,” said Qin Wu in a low voice. “Logically speaking, such accidents only happen in imperfect cultivation systems! Generations of predecessors have verified the Godfiend cultivation system’s completion. It should already be perfect, especially after Ancestral Master Archean Eon perfected it. However, you didn’t create a grotto-heaven after breaking through the Seamless realm. Instead, your Source of the Seamless Realm turned into a black hole, allowing you to become a Creation Supremacy?”
“Such a situation has never happened in history.” Qin Wu and Luo Tang were extremely solemn.
They had no experience with this anomalous change. This meant that Meng Chuan had to figure out everything by himself.
“How do you feel?” asked Qin Wu.
“A Grotto-Heaven domain typically has a 50-kilometer range,” said Meng Chuan. “However, I feel like my Seamless domain has gone one step further, but it only has a five-kilometer range.”
“A five-kilometer range? It’s even smaller than a Grotto-Heaven domain? Could it be that your breakthrough was very flawed?” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang were somewhat worried.
