Archean Eon Art Chapter 188

The couple stared at each other, speechless.

Meng Chuan realized that Qiyue's aura had become even sharper. She had yet to suppress the baneful aura—that formed as a result from staying on the battlefield for a long time. Liu Qiyue had likely killed many demons in the last few months.

“Are you all right?” Meng Chuan finally asked.

“There's no danger with Master around,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “We deliberately acted as though we had completely withdrawn from North River Pass until the end. When the demons entered on a large scale, we constantly killed them with Master. Master killed the powerful demon monarchs. We killed the weak demon monarchs. By the way, what about you? I heard that you, Senior Brother Zhang Yunfeng, and Senior Yang Fang, killed a fourth Firmament Skydemon.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. “That day was most intense. Many Godfiends died in battle, but the demons suffered great losses too. The subsequent battles' danger eased significantly.”

As the two chatted, Senior Brother Zhang Yunhu and Senior Sister Yang Xingwu walked over.

Liu Qiyue greeted them. “Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Sister Yang.”

Yang Xingwu smiled and said, “The moment Junior Brother Meng arrived at Dao Exchange Peak, he asked us about you. The two of you are so affectionate.”

Liu Qiyue smiled brightly as she listened.

“Where's Junior Brother Fan Cheng?” asked Zhang Yunhu.

“He went back to his cave abode first. He will probably take some time to come over,” Liu Qiyue explained. She suddenly saw a figure in the distance. Surprised, she led Meng Chuan over and said, “Senior Brother Zhang, please excuse us. Ah Chuan, follow me.”

“Oh?” Meng Chuan followed Liu Qiyue into the distance. Hundreds of Godfiends gathered in small cliques. There were plenty of people gathered at Dao Exchange Peak.

“Qian Yu?” Meng Chuan also noticed who it was.

Qian Yu was chatting with other Godfiends. He no longer looked disheartened. His hair was a little white, making him appear much more haggard. However, with Meng Chuan's Essence Soul, he could sense that Qian Yu's aura was much stronger than before. He could be considered powerful among Great Solar Godfiends.

“Senior Brother Qian.” Liu Qiyue brought Meng Chuan over. They had both been worried about Qian Yu back then. However, they never saw him again after they left the mountain.

“Junior Sister Liu.” When Qian Yu saw her, he couldn't help but smile. “Brother-in-law, you didn't invite me when you got married.”

Liu Qiyue immediately explained, “Ah Chuan and I got married at North River Pass. All our fellow disciples have matters to tend to, so we didn't invite anyone.”

Qian Yu nodded with a smile before looking at Meng Chuan. His eyes lit up. “Brother-in-law, you're really impressive. It's only been three years since you left the mountain, but you've already accumulated five million credits! You will probably be conferred the title of earl, am I right? The number of demon monarchs and Skydemons that died to your hands is much more than what we've killed.”

Now, Qian Yu was most impressed with his fellow disciples that killed many demon monarchs and Skydemons.

Meng Chuan was the most stunning person among them! Not only did he kill a large number of demon monarchs and Skydemons, but he had also killed a fourth Firmament Skydemon after cooperating with two senior brothers.

“We were lucky,” said Meng Chuan. “I only managed to accumulate five million credits by stealing some of Senior Brother Zhang Yunfeng and Senior Brother Yang Fang's hard work.”

“Junior Brother Meng, I think it was the two of us who stole your hard work.” Zhang Yunfeng and Yang Fang walked over with a smile. Zhang Yunfeng smiled. “Without you, we would have lost our lives. Without us, you would've shaken off the fourth Firmament Skydemon and demon monarchs easily.”

The credit they gained for killing Blackwater Palace Lord was immense. Blackwater Palace Lord's bounty was set at ten million credits! Meng Chuan and company split the credits evenly. This allowed Meng Chuan to have over five million accumulated credits. He was qualified for earlship.

“The battle was harrowing,” said Meng Chuan. “The three of us worked together and barely managed to kill Blackwater Palace Lord.”

“Yes, it was indeed harrowing.” Yang Fang and Zhang Yunfeng nodded.

The trio succeeded by giving their all when they met Blackwater Palace Lord.

As for Greater Demon Monarch Zhuang Fu? Even if the trio joined forces, it was useless. The difference in strength was too great.

“Junior Brother Qian, you seem to have switched to the Body Tempering Godfiend lineage?” Zhang Yunfeng looked at Qian Yu and asked in surprise.

“Yes.” Qian Yu nodded. “My dantian was destroyed, and I lost most of my strength. Thus, I begged Master, and Master gave me this path. Our human's Body Tempering Godfiend lineage has only been established for a few centuries after all. There are too many imperfections, but we still need Godfiends to try it out personally. Only with enough experience can the formula become complete. To begin with, I was a Great Solar Godfiend, so it's quite rare for someone like me to switch to the Body Tempering Godfiend lineage. Master aided me in my Body Tempering cultivation. There was a 50% chance of failure—which would result in me being completely crippled or even dying. But I succeeded! My overall strength is much greater than before.”

“Congratulations,” Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue said.

“It's just that it seems to have drained quite a bit of your lifespan,” said Zhang Yunfeng.

“Master will have a higher chance of success in future attempts,” said Qian Yu with a smile. “Also, it's already not bad that we succeeded. It's not a big deal losing 50 years of lifespan. At the very least, I'm stronger than the demon monarchs when fighting them head-on.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

His father cultivated the Body Tempering Godfiend lineage, but there were too many flaws in its formula. Archean Mountain Inner sect disciples were forbidden from cultivating it. Outer sect disciples could choose the Body Tempering Lineage, but very few chose this path.

The physical body cultivation system he obtained from Archean Eon Grotto-Heaven was complete. Just the first realm required a first-level Essence Soul. Furthermore, he needed Cosmos Crystals to gain basic mastery. The tiny crystal he obtained back then was a Cosmos Crystal. This was something that only existed in the cultivation system's original homeworld. The human world didn't produce any Cosmos Crystals. Therefore, Meng Chuan's physical body cultivation would stop at the Blood Droplet realm.

The humans' Body Tempering lineage didn't need Cosmos Crystals. However, Qian Yu's current strength represented the limits of the Body Tempering lineage. It was also because he was originally a Great Solar Godfiend; otherwise, it would be difficult for him to master it.

Meng Chuan and his wife chatted with many familiar friends on Dao Exchange Peak. Following that, they returned to their cave abodes. In the afternoon, the couple headed to Fluttering Snow Peak to visit Yan Jin.

Whoosh~

Snow fluttered everywhere.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue came to the lonely cave abode. Fluttering Snow Peak was too remote and lonely, and up until now, only Yan Jin had chosen to stay here.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The door opened.

A servant glanced outside and immediately greeted respectfully, “Lord Meng Chuan, Lady Liu Qiyue.” He recognized the two. Ever since the duo left the mountain, no one had visited Yan Jin. Yan Jin didn't interact with his fellow disciples and cultivated alone.

“Tell Yan Jin that we are visiting,” said Meng Chuan.

“My lords, please wait a moment.” The servant smiled and nodded, then walked into the cave abode.

In an ice chamber in the cave abode.

The chamber was carved out of a huge block of ice. This was a massive chamber Yan Jin had excavated himself.

He sat in the lotus position, emitting an infinite chill. Despite the terrifying chill, a flame burned brightly in his body.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Yan Jin opened his eyes, his gaze—cold and emotionless. Having cultivated alone for a long time, he had completely forgotten about his emotions. All he knew was cultivation. His temperament gradually resembled the creator of the Icefire Seven Absolutes Black Metal Sutra. Only then did he truly achieve Lesser Mastery. He had already reached the Fire Soul realm and Ice Soul realm. He was now trying to fuse them into the Icefire Soul. Once he succeeded in fusing them, he would reach the Great Solar realm. He would then be able to leave the mountain.

It was astonishing that he had achieved such accomplishments in the past 14 years on the mountain. After all, not everyone was Xue Feng, Meng Chuan, and Liu Qiyue.

“What is it?” asked Yan Jin. The coldness in his voice caused the servant's heart to tighten.

“My lord, Lord Meng Chuan and Lady Liu Qiyue are here,” said the servant respectfully.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue are back? Yan Jin was stunned, the coldness in his eyes melting a little. He immediately stood up and walked out.
