Archean Eon Art-Chapter 745 - Fate
Translator: CKtalon
Although Hall Lord White Avian had high hopes for Meng Chuan, Meng Chuan’s speed of growth exceeded his expectations. How long has it been since he reached the Seventh Tribulation realm? He has already reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm?
“Ever since I suppressed Celestial Thearch Myriad Star, I’ve only been presiding over the array formation for slightly more than a hundred years.” No matter how strong White Avian’s mental state was, he couldn’t help but chuckle. “I’d already made preparations. Even if I delay my cultivation, I’ll just waste it out with Celestial Thearch Myriad Star. Yet, you came to replace me today. I was caught off guard by your cultivation speed.”
Although Hall Lord White Avian claimed that he was caught off guard, he was actually grinning from ear to ear.
“I was lucky to make a breakthrough in my cultivation,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “After comprehending the three fundamental laws of time, I fell into a bottleneck. I was stuck at the bottleneck for nearly 5,000 years; I only broke through when I saw the peak of Fiend Mountain.”
“I can only make a vague judgment about your cultivation time now… It isn’t more than 20,000 years,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a sigh. “You reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm after cultivating for more than 10,000 years. You even said that you spent nearly 5,000 years stuck at a bottleneck. If other Seventh Tribulation Eminences hear you, they would probably secretly curse you for showing off.”
“Actually… I’m just showing off,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “After cultivating for so many years, I’ve finally reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm. It’s only right for me to show off.”
“I’ll hold a celebration for you at Nebula Palace in a few days so that you can show off as much as you want,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile.
Celestial Thearch Myriad Star had been suppressed. The two of them were the only two half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences in the present era, and the two of them could decide the order of the entire River of Spacetime.
He felt a lot more relaxed now.
“There’s no need for a celebration.” Meng Chuan shook his head. “It’s gratuitous.”
“Alright, up to you.” Hall Lord White Avian nodded.
If it were a half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminence or an ordinary Seventh Tribulation Eminence, they would need to celebrate. However, there was no need for any superficial ceremonies after becoming a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence. Who in the entire spacetime dared to be disrespectful to a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence?
“Come, I’ll teach you how to manage this array formation,” said Hall Lord White Avian.
“Alright.” Meng Chuan followed and learned how to control the array formation.
…
In the suppressed inhabited world, Celestial Thearch Myriad Star appeared out of thin air at the peak of a tall mountain. He looked up at the world membrane and the chains that appeared. The aura emitted by the sealing array changed.
This array formation’s aura has changed? Celestial Thearch Myriad Star’s face was somewhat pale. This is… Meng Chuan’s aura?
At that moment, he was somewhat dazed; he even felt despair.
The one presiding over the array formation was clearly White Avian. Why has it become Meng Chuan? Meng Chuan has also grasped the spacetime law? Celestial Thearch Myriad Star was somewhat flustered.
Meng Chuan was an Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence. It was very easy for him to send an Essence Soul avatar to preside over the array formation; it didn’t affect his cultivation at all. Furthermore, Meng Chuan was too young. He could continue this battle of attrition.
He became a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence so quickly. With his growth speed, how can I escape his obstruction? Celestial Thearch Myriad Star was truly indignant.
I deduced the future and predicted that Meng Chuan’s future would be very terrifying. It’s very easy for him to reach the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm. Therefore, I didn’t dare delay. I started my machinations ahead of time to prevent myself from being obstructed by Meng Chuan! Celestial Thearch Myriad Star had long deduced the future. If he delayed for too long, his plan of devouring inhabited worlds would be heavily obstructed when Meng Chuan reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm.
This was because Meng Chuan had many Essence Soul avatars. After becoming a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence, the threat he posed was much greater than Hall Lord White Avian. For example, he could send an Essence Soul avatar to follow Celestial Thearch Myriad Star’s outer realm true body for a long period of time and use an array formation to intercept him.
Essence Soul Tribulation Eminences were good at array formations.
I launched the plan ahead of time, but White Avian hired an Eighth Tribulation Eminence to set up an array formation to suppress me.
I’ve only suppressed him for slightly over 100 years, and Meng Chuan has already reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm. I still have to face their encirclement? Celestial Thearch Myriad Star only felt grief and indignation.
This was fate. No matter how he dodged, Meng Chuan and Hall Lord White Avian were still two obstructing mountains in front of him.
“Meng Chuan!” Celestial Thearch Myriad Star shouted; his voice transmitted through the world membrane.
“Celestial Thearch Myriad Star.” A calm voice sounded.
“I never expected you to reach the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm so quickly. Impressive,” said Celestial Thearch Myriad Star. “Meng Chuan, I—Myriad Star—have never been your enemy all these years, have I? I’ve always wanted to befriend you, but you are cornering me to this state?”
“I did not corner you; you did it to yourself.” Meng Chuan’s voice traveled down. “You are insatiable. You ordered the forbidden creature to devour inhabited worlds wantonly. Even Perfected Lord Crimson Peace couldn’t stop you when he appeared, forcing him to set up an array formation to trap you. Who can you blame? As long as you don’t devour inhabited worlds, Hall Lord White Avian, me, or Realm Ancestor—who will deal with you? If you had stopped midway, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
“Understood.” Celestial Thearch Myriad Star said indifferently, “However, don’t you think that you are being too nosy? If it doesn’t threaten your homeworld, why do you care so much?”
“Myriad Star, the laws of spacetime have the principle of protecting inhabited worlds. This is the bottom line. An inhabited world is a cradle of countless lives.” Meng Chuan’s voice boomed. “You crossed the bottom line, so you are a scourge if you live. You deserve death.”
“Haha, deserve death!” Celestial Thearch Myriad Star laughed hideously. “If you have the ability to kill me, do it. You can only waste your time outside. When I break through the array formation and rush out, I will make all of you nosy ones pay the price! Even if you die, your homeworlds will be destroyed one by one.”
Celestial Thearch Myriad Star’s eyes were filled with madness. He only had one goal now: create an Eighth Tribulation body formulation and storm his way out!
“Don’t worry; I’ll kill you.” Meng Chuan’s cold voice sounded. No matter what Celestial Thearch Myriad Star said, he couldn’t be bothered.
…
Everyone knew that Hall Lord White Avian presided over the array formation to suppress Celestial Thearch Myriad Star, saving the entire River of Spacetime from a calamity.
However, the various factions could sense that Meng Chuan’s avatar appeared after Hall Lord White Avian left the array formation.
I heard that one has to grasp the spacetime law to control that array formation. Once Hall Lord White Avian left, Eastcalm presided over it?
City Lord Eastcalm has reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm?
All parties naturally had their speculations.
Soon, White Avian Hall announced—
City Lord Eastcalm had already become a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence of the Essence Soul lineage! He had sent an Essence Soul avatar to suppress Celestial Thearch Myriad Star.
Boom!
This news shocked everyone in the River of Spacetime.
Half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence? In this era, there were three half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences. This was extremely rare in the River of Spacetime’s history.
Most importantly, he was of the Essence Soul lineage! Furthermore, Meng Chuan had cultivated for a much shorter period than White Avian and Myriad Star. His talent was even more terrifying.
He became a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence after cultivating for over 10,000 years? Origin Realm Chieftain, who thought highly of himself, originally believed that he would be the strongest Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence in the present era after Realm Ancestor died. However, while Realm Ancestor was still alive, an Essence Soul half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence had already appeared.
“What a monster,” muttered Origin Realm Chieftain.
…
“He’s already at the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm?” In front of the bamboo forest lake, Realm Ancestor felt that the world was unpredictable.
He wasn’t dead yet.
It’s only been 900 years since I first met him. Realm Ancestor also felt that everything had happened too quickly. Back then, Meng Chuan had yet to transcend the sixth Heavenly Tribulation. It was only because it was rare for the Cang Alliance to produce someone with talent that I suddenly suggested meeting him. He’s already a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence after 900 years?
Realm Ancestor also knew that Meng Chuan’s actual cultivation time was much longer because of opportunities like Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
However, Realm Ancestor was already nearing the end of his lifespan. He only had a few thousand years left.
After 900 years, he was still close to the end of his lifespan. However, Meng Chuan had already reached the strongest level of the present generation. He was comparable to Hall Lord White Avian and Myriad Star.
…
Back then, I plundered Meng Chuan. The gray-robed, black stone golem—Guild Master Darkstar—sat cross-legged in his chamber as he pondered in frustration. In the blink of an eye, he has already reached the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm. As long as he’s willing, he can easily crush my outer realm true body. What should I do?
Reverberations were sent throughout the entire River of Spacetime due to the news of Meng Chuan becoming a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence.
All parties needed to consider how they should face a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence from the Essence Soul lineage.
