Meng Chuan didn’t have extravagant hopes. He would help his species to the best of his ability. If he were to focus on reaching the Eighth Tribulation realm only, he would only realize that he hadn’t done enough for his species when he was nearing the end of his life. It would be too late for him to help then; it would be too late for regrets.
The rules set by Meng Chuan had far-reaching implications for Archean Eon Realm.
The ancient Regis Godfiends—who were sleeping-were awakened. They had contributed greatly to Archean Eon Realm. As long as they had a fifth-level Essence Soul and had reached the Grotto-Heaven realm, they could consume rare treasures from the outer realm to recover their peak vitality. They could then directly break through to the Supremacy realm.
Yan Chitong only had a fourth-level Essence Soul, so he was naturally lacking.
Yan Jin’s technique realm was high enough. With the help of rare treasures from the outer realm, he broke through to the Supremacy realm.
The number of Supremacies in Archean Eon Realm greatly increased.
Chapter 647 - Letter
Jiang State Capital, Meng Manor. “Eh?” Liu Qiyue—who came out of the chamber-looked at the distant study in surprise. The white-haired Meng Chuan was sitting there, writing something.
He seems to be writing letters? Ah Chuan rarely writes letters. Liu Qiyue was somewhat puzzled. Meng Chuan’s mind covered the entire Archean Eon Realm. If there was anything, he could just send a voice transmission. With his status, it was very rare for him to write letters personally.
Liu Qiyue walked over.
Meng Chuan finished writing a letter with a brush in hand. With a wave of his hand, 62 letters appeared beside him. The same words appeared on every letter.
“Ah Chuan, 63 letters?” Liu Qiyue walked into the study. “Are you sending them to all the Supremacies in Archean Eon Realm?”
Meng Chuan nodded. “Yes.”
After the ancient Regis Godfiends woke up and broke through, Archean Eon Realm had more than 60 Supremacies—an astonishing number. Apart from Liu Qiyue, Meng An, and Meng Dajiang, there were 63 Supremacies.
“This matter is very important, so I have to write to every one of them personally,” said Meng Chuan.
Two World Island.
The black-haired Supremacy Thousand Wood stood in the courtyard.
Fate really makes fools of people. After sleeping for centuries, I actually obtained a rare treasure from the outer realm that restored me to peak vitality and allowed me to break through to the Supremacy realm. I also have a 1,500-year lifespan now. Supremacy Thousand Wood sighed. He had fought in the World Gap with Meng Chuan, King True Martial, King Molten, and King Northcleanse the last time he woke up.
In that battle, the core figure was King True Martial. He and Meng Chuan were equally important. With a sixth-level Essence Soul and the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell, he was extremely powerful among Regis Godfiends.
After the battle, he entered the slumber again. After all, Two World Island placed great importance on such a powerful expert. This time, he was awakened because Imperial Lord Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, had given them rare treasures that allowed them to recover their peak vitality. This allowed them to break through to the Supremacy realm.
When I was young, the war hadn’t even begun. When I reigned supreme in the world, the threat from the demon war wasn’t that threatening. After I woke up after sleeping for centuries, the world was already in chaos. It was the most critical moment.” Supremacy Thousand Wood sighed. “Back then, Meng Chuan was the youngest in our team, and he was already a core figure. Who knew that he would end the war completely and cultivate to an unimaginable realm… According to the records, he’s the strongest expert in Three Bay River System, perhaps the strongest expert in Goddess River Zone.
In the era of war, an impressive hero managed to appear. Supremacy Thousand Wood felt emotional.
Swoosh.
A shadow flew over from afar. It landed to reveal a demon servant.
The demon servant respectfully handed over a letter. “Supremacy Thousand Wood, this is a letter from Imperial Lord Eastcalm.”
“Imperial Lord’s letter?” Supremacy Thousand Wood was astonished. With Meng Chuan’s current status, he could just send a voice transmission if there was anything. Yet, he wrote a letter?
He immediately received it solemnly.
The Power of Essence Soul aura contained within the letter couldn’t be replicated.
“In the outer realm, there’s a mystic realm called Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. Spending ten years there will only be one year in Archean Eon Realm. The cultivation environment there far exceeds Archean Eon Realm. There are many experts there, ones far exceeding Archean Eon Realm.”
Supremacy Thousand Wood read the contents, and his heart stirred.
It was very difficult for Supremacies to become Imperial Lords. In the past, Archean Eon Realm only produced one Imperial Lord every 100,000 years. In total, only one Imperial Lord appeared out of hundreds of Supremacies. They didn’t have any opportunities to cultivate in their homeworld, nor did they have any seniors to guide them. Without any backers, roaming the outer realm meant high mortality rates. For example, the demons were protected by demon Imperial Lords when they roamed the outer realm. In their homeworld, demon Imperial Lords would give lectures. There were even demon Tribulation Eminences guiding them.
The cultivation conditions for both parties were highly disparate.
“We have plenty of resources now. With Imperial Lord Eastcalm’s guidance and Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, I’m afraid one Imperial Lord will appear out of every 20 Supremacies. Ten Supremacies will produce a Heaven Earth Supremacy.” Supremacy Thousand Wood read the letter.
The breakthrough ratio was Meng Chuan’s guess. Combined with Earth Cloud Mystic Realm cultivators’ breakthrough ratio and considering how Archean Eon Realm cultivators had become Supremacies despite the harsh conditions, Meng Chuan believed that they should be able to achieve such a breakthrough ratio. After they had talent generally higher than of Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Supremacies, and they would receive his nurturing
Even if I want to become a Heaven Earth realm Supremacy, nine out of ten will fail. Should I leave my homeworld and cultivate in a foreign land… Supremacy Thousand Wood pondered. There aren’t many people in the world that I’m concerned about. I’ll head to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm and try my luck.
Supremacy Thousand Wood made his decision.
“Madam, what do you think?”
Yan Jin looked at his wife, Mu Fengxue—who was reading the letter. She looked at his husband. “Do you want to go?”
“It says that time in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm flows ten times faster than Archean Eon Realm’s. In 150 Archean Eon Realm years, 1,500 years will have passed in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm… What’s left of my lifespan will be gone very quickly.” Yan Jin smiled. “Furthermore, I know my limits. Only one in ten can become a Heaven Earth realm Supremacy. There are even fewer who can become an Imperial Lord. I originally relied on outer realm treasures to become a Supremacy. My chances of becoming a Heaven Earth realm Supremacy are very low.”
“To abandon my family for that little hope.” Yan Jin shook his head. “I won’t choose to do so.”
Mu Fengxue looked at Yan Jin. “I’ll cultivate well and become a Supremacy.”
“Yes, you have hope.” Yan Jin looked at his wife.
Mu Fengxue was also a genius disciple of Archean Mountain. She was once Yan Jin’s disciple and had always been with Yan Jin. She was now a Regis Godfiend. Having cultivated for 300 years, she believed that her cultivation had reached its peak, but the rules Meng Chuan had set allowed these Regis Godfiends to see hope. As long as they reached the Grotto-Heaven realm and attained a fifth-level Essence Soul before their demise, they could become Supremacies.
“The letter also mentions that,” said Mu Fengxue, “although it’s very difficult for Supremacies to become Imperial Lords, even Supremacies have a chance
of creating a transcendent-grade Godfiend body formulation. For example, the Eon Sea Fiend Body and the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body… Nearly half of transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies were created by Supremacies. “Instead, many Imperial Lords in human history have never created a transcendent-grade Godfiend body formulation. As long as you can create one, you will be given treasures according to your contributions.”
“Yes.” Yan Jin nodded. “I knew Meng Chuan when we were young. I know his temperament very well. He has sacrificed his entire life for humanity. He probably wants to create enough Godfiend body systems to perfect the Godfiend cultivation system.”
Out of the 12 transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies, two required the dragon and phoenix bloodlines. Therefore, strictly speaking, there were only ten transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies.
Meng Chuan naturally had hope for every human Supremacy. Similarly, he wouldn’t be stingy with his bestowments.
“I won’t go to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, but I’ll give creating a transcendent-grade Godfiend body a try. After becoming a Supremacy, I also feel that the Azure Lotus Divine Body doesn’t have a high compatibility with me,” said Yan Jin. Back then, he could only choose one Godfiend body that was relatively more compatible out of the ten transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies. He had failed to cultivate the Azure Lotus Divine Body to perfection. Only he could create a perfect compatibility with it.
Earth Cloud Mystic Realm? This is a good opportunity. Bai Yaoyue read the letter’s description. She was extremely talented, and she clearly felt that she was extremely close to attaining a Heaven Earth realm ultimate technique. She knew that she was just short of breaking through to create a Heaven Earth realm ultimate technique. Earth Cloud Mystic Realm—which had a better cultivation environment—had clearly given her hope.
I never expected that the child Nianyun gave birth to would completely change Archean Eon Realm and my fate. Bai Yaoyue sighed. Who would have thought that Bai Nianyun would marry a mortal like Meng Dajiang and give birth to such a dazzling figure in Archean Eon Realm’s history?
These Supremacies made their own decisions. Some wanted to stay in their homeworld to nurture their sect’s future talents and lead peaceful lives. This was because the war had gone on for too long.
Some wanted to challenge themselves and improve.
On a snowy day, 34 Supremacies gathered at Archean Mountain’s Grotto-Heaven Pavilion.
“Everyone.” Meng Chuan looked at the people in front of him.
Qin Wu, Luo Tang, Bai Yaoyue, Jing Fei, and the other older Supremacies were present. There were also Supremacies like King Thousand Wood, King Transcendence, King Northcleanse, and some other sleeping Regis Godfiends who had broken through. There were also some young Supremacies who were in high spirits.
“I hope that you can become a Heaven Earth realm Supremacy or an Imperial Lord,” said Meng Chuan. “I also hope that you can perfect the Godfiend cultivation system for humans. We need pioneers to forge and open up a path. In the future, your descendants will be able to cultivate a perfected Godfiend cultivation system.”
The Supremacies present were excited. They had their own goals. Earth Cloud Mystic Realm was a bigger world.
“After every century in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, I will send people back to Archean Eon Realm.” Meng Chuan looked at everyone. “Whoever wants to return can take this opportunity.”
The Supremacies nodded slightly.
“Let’s go.” Meng Chuan stored everyone into his mobile grotto-heaven. Following that, his Essence Soul avatar left Archean Eon Realm and headed for Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
…
Fiend Mountain.
Fiend Mountain was desolate. Meng Chuan was the only living creature with intelligence.
In the entire River of Spacetime, only about 100 people could enter and exit Fiend Mountain normally. All of them had rather high statuses. Ordinary Sixth Tribulation Eminences had never heard of Fiend Mountain.
Those existences had high statuses, so they didn’t pay much attention to the weapons and items left behind on Fiend Mountain. However, Meng Chuan’s outer realm true body came to search for treasures.
In order to nurture the Regis Godfiends and Supremacies, I have to do my best to pick up what’s left behind. Meng Chuan spent a month foraging each time before leaving Fiend Mountain. He would enter again after his Essence Soul recovered to its peak.
Although Fiend Mountain was harmful to one’s Essence Soul, the mountain range’s periphery had a very low impact on one’s Essence Soul. In the early days, Black Wind and company had stayed in the periphery for quite some time. Furthermore, Meng Chuan was at the Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation realm.
His willpower was high enough, and he could quickly recover from staying in the periphery for a month after leaving Fiend Mountain. Of course, he didn’t dare enter the path of epiphany. If he reached the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm, he could enter the entire Fiend Mountain as he pleased.
After three months of hard work, I’ve only picked up treasures worth 150,000 cubes in total. I reckon there aren’t many treasures left in the periphery of Fiend Mountain. Meng Chuan sighed. The good days of picking up treasures were almost gone. It wasn’t easy for a Sixth Tribulation Eminence to accumulate treasures either.
Chapter 648 - 25,000 Kilometers on Fiend Mountain
The reason why Meng Chuan’s outer realm true body didn’t cultivate on Fiend Mountain’s path of the mind was that he didn’t want to affect his homeworld’s true body, which was studying the Void Catalog.
On the path of the mind, the mountaintop’s voice constantly attacked his Essence Soul. The interference was too great. Meng Chuan undoubtedly gave the comprehension of the Void Catalog top priority.
The Void Catalog is the most precious manual I’ve obtained to date. Meng Chuan was enamored by it. Although he had memorized all three volumes with a single glance at his cultivation realm, he had taken a long time studying every word and every painting. He even went to a Chaos Hole’s depths, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, and the Great Seal Eternal treasure to verify his ideas.
Concrete verification was actually more important. If one were to enter seclusion and meditate, they would only deviate further and become closer to fantasy. The ideas one came up with would be different from the real laws.
Only by putting his deductions into practice could Meng Chuan understand which were right and which were wrong. He would also understand which direction he should take. If he meditated for a year, he might spend ten to twenty years doing experiments. This was followed by meditation and verifications again… This cycle continued without end.
This was how cultivation was. One relied on a slow accumulation over a long period of time. As one’s accumulations deepened, success would naturally follow. Meng Chuan was afraid that his accumulation process would stagnate, preventing him from advancing any further. However, he constantly improved while studying the Void Catalog! It was as though an Eternal existence was carefully teaching him… He had to be fully focused during his meditation, unwilling to be disturbed by anything. However, he only needed to split a portion of his mental strength to verify his insights when carrying out experiments. He could cultivate the path of the mind at the same time. He could even study the Great Seal Eternal treasure, cultivate the Pupil of Darkness mystic technique, cultivate in the Chaos Hole’s depths, and verify his insights in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm simultaneously.
It was very easy for an Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence to do thousands of tasks simultaneously.
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, Meng Chuan spent 600 years cultivating; fifty years had passed in the outside world.
This was mainly because the time flow was very fast in the Chaos Hole’s depths. Meng Chuan experienced a thousand-fold faster time flow in the Chaos Hole’s depths. Even if he occasionally went there, he still consumed his lifespan extremely quickly. However, the deeper he went into the Chaos Hole, the more spacetime distorted. As someone
who wanted to comprehend a Chaos Hole law, he often went to the Chaos Hole’s depths.
Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, Realm Palace.
Meng Chuan sat cross-legged in front of the lake. However, his consciousness descended upon a dangerous area in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm—the Dark Maze. He practiced void techniques in the Dark Maze.
Condense.
In the Dark Maze, spacetime was chaotic and unpredictable. It was the perfect place for studying time and space.
As the mystic realm’s owner, Meng Chuan could easily control the entire Dark Maze. At that moment, he condensed a void blade with a thought. The void blade—which was difficult to see with the naked eye-seemed to condense the void billions of times, completely turning it into a weapon.
The ordinary void was very weak. Even Supremacies could tear through it. It was like water in the River of Spacetime. When the void condensed into a weapon, it was like water forming a water blade. Mortals could easily splash water, but when a water blade had condensed, it could easily slice through things that were hundreds or thousands of times tougher than mortals.
It was the same for the void blade. It was terrifyingly sharp.
Split. Meng Chuan sent another thought. The void no longer remained condensed and compressed. Instead, it split apart. It was completely separated. From the outermost layer to the bottommost layer, the void was separated. When the void was separated, a new void would naturally appear. It was like a patch.
When the void was split apart, the living beings and matter that lived in space would be split into two. This was an even more terrifying method of splitting.
As the mystic realm’s owner, my control over the laws is much stronger. However, I can’t do it in the outside world. Meng Chuan carefully experienced it. In the mystic realm, his strength soared to the level of a Seventh Tribulation Eminence.
