With a thought
The lightning bolt on his fingertip annihilated the drop of blood. It then followed the karmic connection and attacked Long Han’s true body situated in the Heaven realm.
In the outer realm, a vast black riverspanning 500,000 kilometers-swirled around an area.
A cave abode was situated above the river, and Fiend Ancestor Skygrief lived there.
Th-this… Inside his chamber, Fiend Ancestor Skygrief was somewhat dazed. My true body in my homeworld, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, has been killed? Fiend Ancestor Skygrief was stunned. I died just like that?
He was instantly killed. He didn’t even know who had attacked him.
I wasn’t able to put up any resistance, and one of my true bodies was instantly killed. Fiend Ancestor Skygrief was somewhat alarmed. It must be a Sixth Tribulation Eminence! Apart from Grandsire Three Stones, there’s another Sixth Tribulation Eminence in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm!
This truth left him alarmed.
Sixth Tribulation Eminences were overlords that reigned supreme in the River of Spacetime. Now, there were two Sixth Tribulation Eminences in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm? Wasn’t he courting death by getting involved? I’ve never thought of making an enemy out of a Sixth Tribulation Eminence. This is an unfamiliar Sixth Tribulation Eminence. I’ll naturally obey your orders if you just say so. Why must you destroy my homeworld’s true body?
How am I to return if my homeworld’s true body is destroyed? Fiend Ancestor Skygrief felt aggrieved. Earth Cloud Mystic Realm was a cultivation holy land after all. It had all sorts of opportunities. Although the outer realm was vast and filled with more possibilities, it was much harder to obtain opportunities in the outer realm. Therefore, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm was extremely important to him. However, he couldn’t return now.
Grandsire Three Stones’s embodiment was inside a palace beside Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Realm Palace.
Huh? Three Stones was suddenly alarmed. He sensed that Fiend Ancestor Skygrief’s true body in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm had vanished!
Not good. Three Stones turned his head and saw Long Han—who lived in one of the palace buildings—through the various obstacles.
Whoosh. Long Han’s body silently disintegrated.
Chapter 615 - Meng Chuan and Grandsire Three Stones
Grandsire Three Stones’s pupils constricted.
Three Stones thought nothing of a junior like Long Han. What he cared about was Long Han’s husband! This was because an array formation had been set up in the entire Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Realm Palace. The array formation was so brilliant that he could tell it was set up by a Seventh Tribulation Eminence at least. However, Long Han’s husband could easily enter it. He clearly controlled the array formation.
Furthermore, Long Han’s husband was an outsider!
One could leave Earth Cloud Mystic Realm but not return.
However, if Long Han’s husband is capable of entering… Three Stones thought of many possibilities. He definitely couldn’t tolerate other Sixth Tribulation Eminences having control of Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. He had long treated the mystic realm like meat in his bowl.
To kill Fiend Ancestor Skygrief instantly and save Long Han… Could it be that a Sixth Tribulation Eminence has arrived? Three Stones’s mind raced. He didn’t even dare teleport to the spot where Fiend Ancestor Skygrief had died. He was afraid that the unfamiliar Sixth Tribulation Eminence would set up an array formation trap ahead of time. If he were to teleport over, he would fall into the trap.
Not good. I have to return quickly. Three Stones immediately had this thought.
Whoosh.
A stream of light descended from the sky and fused with Grandsire Three Stones’s embodiment. His aura became clearly thicker.
Three Stones’s true body stopped refining the Realm Palace and returned.
Realm Palace was core to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. It was also a rather elegant and quiet cave abode.
The cave abode was 500 kilometers wide and had a large lake surrounding it. Beyond the lake were thick clouds.
The thick clouds completely protected the Realm Palace. The clouds were extremely difficult to pass through, and they exerted immense pressure on lifeforms. Only Sixth Tribulation Eminences could tear through the obstruction to enter the Realm Palace.
Back when Ancestral Master Archean Eon came here, he had set up an array formation and built a passageway. Even the weak could pass through the array formation and enter the cave abode. Meng An had done so previously. However, Meng An was too weak. With Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s array formation, he could enter the Realm Palace and use its cultivation environment. However, he couldn’t refine the Realm Palace for himself to control the mystic realm.
Although a mystic realm was inferior to a high-level world, it was much stronger than a middle-level world. It nurtured a large number of living beings. If one wanted to control such a mystic realm, the burden would be immense. Only a Sixth Tribulation Eminence could withstand it.
Swoosh.
A person appeared out of thin air in the elegant cave abode—the white-haired, white-robed Meng Chuan. Oh? Grandsire Three Stones is really decisive. He actually reacted instantly and fled with his true body? With a thought, Meng Chuan sensed the situation in the Realm Palace. Three Stones had clearly fled in advance.
It wasn’t the proper strategy to expose my existence and attack without saving Long Han. However, I was still a step too late by the time I saved Long Han and teleported over.
The Realm Palace had an array formation set up by Ancestral Master Archean Eon. Even if Meng An activated the array formation, he was far from being Grandsire Three Stones’s match. However, as his father, Meng Chuan held the terrain advantage if he controlled the Realm Palace’s array formation! He had a 90% chance of winning against Grandsire Three Stones.
The Realm Palace is truly extraordinary. The Essence Energy here was docile and rich. A special aura emanated from the Realm Palace, allowing his Essence Soul to think faster.
Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s Heaven and Earth Great Hall is an imitation of the Realm Palace. However, the Realm Palace is much more brilliant when it comes to protection. Meng Chuan sighed in amazement. After all, an Eighth Tribulation Eminence had spent a lot of effort to create the mystic realm. To an Eighth Tribulation Eminence, the process of creating a world was another form of cultivation. As the core of a mystic realm, the Realm Palace was even more mysterious and unfathomable.
In terms of karmic obstruction, Realm Palaces were even more magical. They could confuse the heavenly secrets, turning karma blurry to prevent detection.
In fact, one’s detection of living beings in the mystic realm was also affected when one was outside the mystic realm. Previously, Meng Chuan only knew that his son was in Taidong River Zone. As for his exact location? He couldn’t lock onto it.
Eighth Tribulation Eminences are even more brilliant when it comes to karma. The more Meng Chuan cultivated, the more reverent he became. Seventh Tribulation Eminences’ strength was already inconceivable. Eighth Tribulation Eminences far exceeded Seventh Tribulation Eminences. The weapons, mystic realms, and legacies they left behind would even be restricted by the River of Spacetime’s laws.
In a floating palace outside the Realm Palace.
Three Stones led his subordinates and flew out of the palace. They levitated in midair and looked at Realm Palace from afar.
“Palace Lord, Fiend Ancestor Skygrief’s true body has been killed?” asked the slightly plump, noble-looking woman beside him softly.
The other cyan-robed elder was somewhat uneasy. Both of them were Fifth Tribulation Eminences. None of the Fifth Tribulation Eminences in the entire Earth Cloud Mystic Realm dared to disobey Grandsire Three Stones. Fiend Ancestor Skygrief was at his beck and call and was very trusted by Three Stones.
It was impossible for Grandsire Three Stones to kill Fiend Ancestor Skygrief. Thus, only leaving one possibility-another Sixth Tribulation
Eminence was around. Upon thinking of another Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s existence, these Fifth Tribulation Eminences were naturally flustered. They were afraid of being implicated.
“Don’t be anxious. We’ll know in a while.” Three Stones calmly looked ahead before chuckling. “He’s here.”
Oh? The slightly plump woman, the cyan-robed elder, and the other Tribulation Eminences looked carefully. From afar, a figure flew out from the thick clouds. He was dressed in white, and his white hair draped over his shoulders. The pressure he exuded wasn’t strong either.
When Three Stones’s body reached the Sixth Tribulation realm, the pressure he exuded was extremely terrifying. Just a little of his aura made Fifth Tribulation Eminences panic. However, the white-robed, white-haired man in front of them didn’t exude much pressure.
“Grandsire Three Stones, you fled rather quickly,” said Meng Chuan. “It’s really as I expected.” The skinny Three Stones looked at Meng Chuan. “You are in cahoots with Island Lord Feather Dragon. You really can control the array formation in the Realm Palace. If I were any slower, I would have died.”
He immediately left back then. This was because he had yet to refine the Realm Palace. He would hold no terrain advantage by staying there, but the other party could control the Realm Palace’s array formation.
As a Sixth Tribulation Eminence, his chances of winning were too low if the other party had the terrain advantage.
“I’m somewhat puzzled.” Three Stones narrowed his eyes as he looked at Meng Chuan. “I’ve never seen you before. You can sneak into the Realm Palace and use the Realm Palace’s array formation to deal with me. Once you destroy my true body, you will be able to control the entire Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. Instead of doing so, you hid in the shadows. You saved Long Han before entering the Realm Palace, giving me a chance to leave the Realm Palace… In your eyes, a mystic realm doesn’t even compare to Long Han’s life?”
Meng Chuan continued looking at him.
Yes.
Meng Chuan didn’t pay much attention to the mystic realm. After cultivating for 2,600 years, he had reached the Sixth Tribulation realm. All that was left was the Tribulation Transcendence trial.
With such cultivation speed, Meng Chuan naturally set his sights on the higher Seventh Tribulation realm. A mystic realm? He would occupy one if he came across one, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t. For example, how many Seventh Tribulation Eminences would become the owner of a mystic realm themselves? They typically reserved it for future generations.
“Since you care about Long Han’s life, you should also care about the lives of all the divine dragons.” Three Stones stared at Meng Chuan, and his eyes turned colder. He flipped his palm, revealing a small black pagoda. “More than a million divine dragon clansmen are inside this pagoda. Their lives depend on you.
“Give me this Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, and they shall live. Otherwise, they die.” Three Stones looked at Meng Chuan.
Meng Chuan scoffed in disdain. “I only saved Feather Dragon’s wife because he begged me. I can’t be bothered with his wife’s clansmen. You want me to give up a mystic realm for some race I know nothing about? Dream on.”
Three Stones’s expression changed slightly.
“One of my Essence Soul avatars has already begun refining the Realm Palace,” said Meng Chuan. “The array formation left behind by my Ancestral Master can greatly accelerate my refinement speed. I believe I will be able to control the mystic realm in a few years. Do you have the guts to stop me inside the Realm Palace? Therefore, I’ve already won! This Earth Cloud Mystic Realm is destined to be mine.”
He has already won? Three Stones was somewhat anxious, but he knew that the other party was right. The other party was refining the array formation, but he didn’t dare to enter! The Realm Palace had an array formation set up by the man’s Ancestral Master. He would only be tempting fate if he entered.
Damn it. He’s relying on the array formation left behind by his predecessor. Three Stones was rather indignant. He lost simply because the other party had the help of a predecessor’s array formation.
However, as a Sixth Tribulation Eminence, he couldn’t let the other party have an easy time snatching Earth Cloud Mystic Realm away from him.
“Once I completely refine the Realm Palace,” Meng Chuan stared at Three Stones and said, “I can easily crush your true body. However, I can give you a chance. Release all the divine dragons. Don’t implicate the juniors, and I will fight you fair and square to determine the better person. The winner will obtain Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.”
“From the looks of it, you still care about the divine dragons’ lives.” Three Stones chuckled as he stared at Meng Chuan.
“You can kill them.” Meng Chuan looked at him. “Be more straightforward. To be honest, the ownership of the mystic realm isn’t that important to me. The divine dragons aren’t that important either.” Meng Chuan looked at Three Stones. “I want both, but losing them isn’t a big deal. Therefore, I want to fight you. If I win, it’s all mine. If I lose, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm will be yours.
“You can choose to agree or refuse. It’s up to you,” said Meng Chuan indifferently. Three Stones looked at Meng Chuan. He could sense the other party’s will. A Sixth Tribulation Eminence wouldn’t change their mind easily.
“Alright.” Three Stones nodded. “The divine dragons have you to thank for saving them. I also promise not to implicate the juniors in the future… However, a fair battle naturally has to be sufficiently fair. I think we should choose to hold our fight in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm.”
Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright, let’s have it in the Heaven realm.”
“Pass down the order,” instructed Three Stones. “In an hour, all Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords in the Heaven realm will descend to the lower realms.”
“Yes.” The plump, noble-looking woman, the cyan-robed elder, and the other Tribulation Eminences respectfully acknowledged the order.
The entire Heaven realm was about to become a battlefield for the two Sixth Tribulation Eminences. The other cultivators couldn’t stay any longer.
“Wait an hour,” said Three Stones. “I have quite a number of disciples. By the way, I’ll give you the divine dragons.” With that said, he threw out the small black pagoda. “Good.” Meng Chuan extended his hand and received the black pagoda. After a brief probe, he discovered that a large number of terrified and uneasy divine dragons were inside the pagoda. More than a million clansmen were in horror, afraid that they would be exterminated.
Swoosh.
The Essence Soul avatar took a step and left with the black pagoda. Before the battle, he had to settle in the divine dragons, Long Han, and Meng Yu.
An’er, I’ve saved everyone that can be saved, thought Meng Chuan. I’ve already done my best.
Time slowly passed.
A white-robed, white-haired man and a thin, cold elder stood in midair silently, waiting for the great relocation of the entire Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm.
Chapter 616 - Battle of Sixth Tribulation Eminences (1)
“The battle between Grandsire Three Stones and an unknown Sixth Tribulation Eminence will determine the ownership of Earth Cloud Mystic Realm? The entire Heaven realm is set to be their battlefield?” As the news spread, the entire Heaven realm fell into chaos.
The factions that could take root in the Heaven realm were knowledgeable. They knew what a Sixth Tribulation Eminence meant. Even in the outer realm, Sixth Tribulation Eminences were invincible as long as Seventh Tribulation Eminences didn’t appear. All of them were extremely terrifying.
“Quick, quick, quick.”
“Hurry up and move if you can. Hurry up and go to the lower realms. If we get implicated, we will all die.”
The many Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords in the Heaven realm were extremely alarmed. Most of the Tribulation Eminences only had one true body in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. If they died, they wouldn’
t be able to return to the mystic realm! The Imperial Lords’ true bodies in the Heaven realm carried many treasures with them. If they died, the treasures would be gone.
“This is the sect headquarters that we built after years of hard work. Sigh! The next time I return to the Heaven realm, this place will probably be in ruins.”
“Move everything you can.” “In ten minutes, we have to go to the lower realms.”
Although Grandsire Three Stones had instructed them to move in an hour, some time had passed before the news reached the various factions in the Heaven realm. Therefore, everyone had to relocate quickly.
Thankfully, only eight Fifth Tribulation Eminences lived in the Heaven realm other than Ancestral Fiend Skygrief. The other Tribulation Eminences numbered less than 1,000, and the number of Imperial Lords had just exceeded 10,000. At this level, news spread very quickly. “The Heaven realm has been reduced to a battlefield. I wonder who will be in control of our Earth Cloud Mystic Realm after this battle between Grandsire Three Stones and the other mysterious Sixth Tribulation Eminence.”
“This isn’t something an Imperial Lord like you needs to worry about. No matter who controls Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, we just need to be obedient.”
Realm Palace, in a grotto-heaven that Meng Chuan carried with him.
Meng Yu’s eyes turned red when he saw the white-robed Long Han. “Mom.” “Yu’er.” Tears welled up in Long Han’s eyes. After being saved by Meng Chuan and regaining her sense of self, she learned of what had happened. She had been captured, and a large number of her clansmen had died. Her master, senior brother, and junior sister had also died…
Long Han was filled with horror. She was afraid that more people would die—the clansmen who had raised her. The entire divine dragon race had even been captured. If her entire race was destroyed because of this, even a hundred deaths couldn’t make up for her sins.
