When night fell, Jiang State Capital remained bustling and beautiful.
A thousand years had passed since the war with the demons. As the city where the Meng family resided, Jiang State Capital was now the largest city in Archean Eon Realm.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two figures flew above Jiang State Capital. They were the couple—Yang Cheng and Meng You.
“After so many years, we’ve finally gathered enough credits.” Meng You was excited and nervous. “As long as we exchange for a longevity extension treasure, we can awaken Yuan’er and extend his lifespan.”
“Yes.” Yang Cheng smiled and nodded.
He also doted on his son, but he felt that his son, Yang Yuan, had lived a perfect life. Although he had stopped at the Marquis Godfiend realm, his 300-year lifespan was considered not bad compared to many Godfiends.
However, his wife had always missed her son. Thus, Yang Cheng naturally did his best. After he transformed into an Imperial Lord-level special lifeform, he had been diligently accumulating credits. The couple worked hard, and Meng You often made her father, Meng Chuan, happy. The treasures her father gave her were all used to exchange for credits with the sect. Tonight, they finally accumulated 1,000,000 credits.
One million credits could be exchanged for longevity extension treasures. It could allow mortals to become Supremacies immediately, giving them 2,000 years of lifespan.
The couple spent most of their lives accumulating one million credits.
After being in Archean Mountain for so many years, the couple was the first to exchange their credits for longevity extension treasures. They needed to do the exchange with Meng Chuan.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The couple landed in Meng Manor and saw a white-haired, middle-aged man drinking alone under the moon.
“Dad.”
“Father-in-law.”
Meng You and Yang Cheng couldn’t hide the excitement in their eyes.
Meng Chuan—who was drinking alone—put down his cup, looked up at the two of them, and smiled. He naturally knew that his daughter and son-in-law’s contributions to Archean Mountain had just accumulated to one million credits. With him as the center, nothing within the 190 trillion-kilometer-wide domain could hide from him.
“The two of you have indeed worked hard over the years.” Meng Chuan nodded. “You’ve sacrificed a lot for the sect.”
“Dad,” said Meng You immediately. “What about the longevity extension treasure?”
“Are you sure you want to exchange this one million credits for a longevity extension treasure?” Meng Chuan looked at his daughter.
Meng You and Yang Cheng nodded.
In fact, ever since he became an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence and was lucky enough to head to Dry Origin Mountain—which stood beyond the universe—Meng Chuan’s ability to obtain treasures far exceeded that of when he was at the Sixth Tribulation realm! Therefore, he had long decided that he would use more precious treasures to greatly improve his family’s bloodline in the future.
With this powerful bloodline, his family could easily become Imperial Lords over time.
To an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, one million Outer Realm Essence Crystals was enough to turn his family members into Imperial Lords. The greater his strength, the more he could help his family.
For example, he treated his grandson, Yang Yuan, colder back when he was only at the Sixth Tribulation realm.
Now that he was stronger, he naturally wasn’t that strict. Even if his daughter and son-in-law didn’t accumulate the credits, Meng Chuan would extend his grandson’s lifespan in the future. As for the couple’s diligent contributions to the sect, Meng Chuan was very satisfied.
If I reach the Eighth Tribulation realm, Meng Chuan’s thoughts drifted.
If he reached the Eighth Tribulation realm, Archean Eon Realm could become a high-level world. The entire Archean Eon Realm’s River of Spacetime could independently form an independent one in the universe. He could allow some lifeforms to transcend Samsara or undergo reincarnation in Archean Eon Realm.
For example, Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor could easily make generations of their species reach the Imperial Lord realm, much less their loved ones. All of them had 100,000 years of lifespan.
One’s achievements could uplift the entire species, like Dragon Ancestor—he even contributed greatly to the entire universe.
Meng Chuan took out a jade bottle and handed it to his daughter, Meng You. “Just let Yang Yuan take it.”
“Thank you, Dad.” Meng You and Yang Cheng excitedly received the longevity extension treasure that they had worked hard for many years for. They quickly bade farewell and left excitedly.
As a father, am I too harsh on my daughter? Meng Chuan thought carefully and shook his head gently. They are already standing at the top of Archean Eon Realm. If I indulge them too much, it won’t be easy to control them.
If I reach the Eighth Tribulation realm, and Archean Eon Realm advances as a whole, the entire race will enjoy great benefits. Qiyue, Meng An, and Meng You will all benefit greatly. Meng Chuan looked at the lake beside the peach blossom tree. There were faint scenes in the lake. What’s most important for me now is to grasp the spacetime law. Ever since I obtained the snake’s talent, I’ve cultivated for more than 2,000 years. I haven’t completely grasped the three major branches of the temporal law. I’m still lacking…
The temporal law was divided into the past, present, and future laws.
These three laws were Sixth Tribulation laws. There were also other names, such as the Fate law, Years law, and so on.
Meng Chuan had grasped the paramount speed law a long time ago—it was a part of the present law.
When he comprehended the Heaven Splitting law—an Origins law—he also comprehended some of the profundities of the past, present, and future.
With his original accumulations and his increased talent in the time lineage—as well as his insights into the painting Dao mystic technique—Meng Chuan had comprehended the present law 100 years after slaying the snake! In the 1,000-plus years after he killed the snake, he had comprehended the past law.
Only his cultivation in the future law was slower.
After slaying the snake for more than 2,000 years, I’ve already grasped the past and the present. What’s left is the future law. I’ve accumulated quite a bit of insights. I should be able to break through in the near future. However, comprehending the three branches is only the foundation! Meng Chuan knew very well that several Seventh Tribulation Eminences had completely grasped the three branches.
Lord of Li Rainbow, Realm Ancestor, and Fiend Eye had grasped the three branches, but they were still far from grasping the spacetime law.
I’ve cultivated for 12,000 years. Hall Lord White Avian grasped the spacetime law in less than 30,000 years. I obtained an Eternal opportunity, and I am cultivating on Dry Origin Mountain. I should be faster than him; otherwise, how can I be an in-name disciple? Meng Chuan naturally had high expectations of himself. He felt that he had to grasp the spacetime law within 20,000 years.
Whoosh.
Meng Chuan looked at the lake.
With the rare treasure—Spacetime Token—refined by Dragon Ancestor, Meng Chuan could spy on countless areas in the River of Spacetime with his current talent and attainments in the spacetime lineage, just like Realm Ancestor.
However, there were fewer places he could spy on at the same time! Ten thousand areas was his limit. Furthermore, he had to use the Spacetime Token to help him.
All the inhabited worlds that have produced half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences. Meng Chuan was also monitoring them. There were only 3,000-plus medium-sized inhabited worlds that had produced half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences.
Hence, it wasn’t difficult for him to monitor all of them at the same time.
Monitoring… It was also a form of tempering his attainments in spacetime.
…
At that moment, a dark hall silently arrived at a river zone. Celestial Thearch Myriad Star was in the hall as a black-robed figure stood by the side.
“Go,” said Celestial Thearch Myriad Star indifferently.
“Yes, Celestial Thearch.” The black-robed figure silently left.
Forbidden creatures couldn’t be too far from their Life Cores. They had to stay in the same river zone in the outer realm.
Therefore, every time a forbidden creature took action, Celestial Thearch Myriad Star—who had its Life Core—would come to the same river zone! This was also why he hid his location.
Meng Sha Realm. Celestial Thearch Myriad Star’s eyes burned. After repeated selections, you are the one I chose among the many half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence homeworlds! Ancestor Meng Sha cultivated his body to the Eighth Tribulation realm, but he failed to transcend the tribulation. He definitely obtained plenty of treasures.
For example, Myriad Star and White Avian hadn’t even created a physical formulation.
During Ancestor Meng Sha’s illustrious era, several Eighth Tribulation Eminences had descended to befriend him. His strength was unfathomable, but when he transcended the tribulation, it proved that his body still had flaws.
Only high-level worlds were better than the Meng Sha Realm.
A high-level world had all sorts of protective means. The independent River of Spacetime transcended Samsara and even formed a divine court internally. Eighth Tribulation Eminences would do their best to protect it.
They were far from something a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence like him could spy on!
This time, I hope I can obtain four billion Outer Realm Essence Crystals from Meng Sha Realm. If it’s not enough, I’ll have to make another attack. Celestial Thearch Myriad Star watched silently.
Time to begin. Celestial Thearch Myriad Star silently took action and concealed the spacetime where Meng Sha Realm was.
After the concealment, the black-robed figure appeared in the spacetime and transformed into a behemoth.
…
Huh? Meng Chuan—who was in Archean Eon Realm—looked at the layers of spacetime shadows in the lake. He was monitoring all half-step Eighth Tribulation homeworlds, so he naturally instantly discovered that the spacetime at Meng Sha Realm had been concealed.
He couldn’t pry into it anymore.
Meng Sha Realm—he attacked? Meng Chuan’s eyes emitted a cold glint.
An Essence Soul avatar flew out from Meng Chuan’s body as he sat there. He instantly traversed spacetime and headed for the region where Meng Sha Realm was.
In front of the bamboo forest, Realm Ancestor—who was fishing—also noticed Meng Sha Realm. His white eyebrows pricked up as his eyes were filled with anger. Similarly, his Essence Soul avatar flew into the lake.
“Hall Lord, Meng Sha Realm has been concealed by spacetime. There’s no way to spy on it.” Azure Dragon—who had been in charge of surveillance all these years—immediately sent a message to Hall Lord White Avian.
When Hall Lord White Avian received the message, he didn’t hesitate to take a step across distant spacetime and head toward Meng Sha Realm.
