Archean Eon Art Chapter 713

Chapter 713: Meeting Realm Ancestor Again

Qilin Ancestor was also very straightforward. He speedily cleaned up the Universe's Nest layer that he occupied and dismantled the fixed array formation he had set up before silently leaving.

Perhaps this is an opportunity for me to change. As Qilin Ancestor walked through the River of Spacetime, he pondered silently. He had guarded Universe's Nest for too long and had been focused on cultivation for many years.

I'm left with the final bottleneck in the law of karma, but it has constantly troubled me. I've grasped the past and present with regards to the spacetime law, but it's difficult to grasp the future, much less the complete temporal law. Qilin Ancestor pondered. He had been at the Seventh Tribulation realm for more than 100,000 years; he had lived for a long time.

He had also completely given up on grasping the complete temporal law. All he wanted now was to grasp the karmic law completely. Once he succeeded, he would become a top Seventh Tribulation Eminence that had grasped two Origins laws.

If I were a top Seventh Tribulation Eminence, would White Avian Hall dare to bully me? Qilin Ancestor thought to himself. His status in the River of Spacetime was very clear. The deterrence an ordinary Seventh Tribulation Eminences could muster was just average. Apart from not having cultivated a Seventh Tribulation body, A small number of half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences could match them in many aspects.

This was because Physical Body Tribulation Eminences deliberately left a flaw in their physical cultivation to delay the Heavenly Tribulation.

I only have 30,000 years left to live. It's time for me to risk my life in some dangerous places. Over the years, Qilin Ancestor had accumulated some opportunities. But he always believed that, the more profound his insights were, the easier it would be for him to break through. Therefore, he had been holding back.

If it weren't for Meng Chuan's appearance, Qilin Ancestor probably would've endured for another few thousand years, or even 10,000-plus years, before he started taking risks.

Of the Universe's Nest's three largest layers, only the layer of Six Directions Heaven's Celestial Thearch Chi remained.

“Brother Eastcalm, you have become an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence. Are you only going to occupy three layers of the Universe's Nest? That's too little.” Celestial Thearch Chi was a very majestic man. His laughter was hearty and very enthusiastic. “If I were an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, I would've long exploited the fact that my many Essence Soul avatars aren't afraid of death to fight with Ancestral Magus Realm, Origin Realm, and even Celestial Thearch Myriad Star. I would tear off a few chunks of their flesh.”

“Celestial Thearch Chi, you are a Celestial Thearch of Six Directions Heaven.” Although Meng Chuan guessed that the other party would give in, Celestial Thearch Chi was too enthusiastic.

“Haha, Myriad Star isn't that petty,” said Celestial Thearch Chi warmly. “It's rare for us to meet today. Brother Shadowfiend and Brother Apprentice are also here. Why don't you come to my cave abode and have a chat?”

“There's no need,” said the expressionless, puppet-like Apprentice coldly.

“We've been neighbors for so many years, but I haven't been to your place to drink once. You aren't willing to drink at my place either.” Celestial Thearch Chi shook his head.

“Since Celestial Thearch Chi has the intention to do so, let's make it quick,” said Lord of Shadowfiend indifferently.

Six Directions Heaven and White Avian Hall were two opposing factions. Although the two factions' upper echelons could sit down to have drinks, be it Lord of Shadowfiend or Apprentice, they were rather arrogant and couldn't be bothered to deal with such matters. Even if Celestial Thearch Myriad Star were in front of them, they couldn't be bothered to give him face. They accompanied Meng Chuan because he was part of White Avian Hall.

“Alright, I'll dismantle the array formation now,” replied Celestial Thearch Chi. In just a moment, he dismantled everything and bade farewell.

“Celestial Thearch Chi is very low-key among Six Directions Heaven's six Celestial Thearchs. He has been staying in the Universe's Nest for a long time, unlike Celestial Thearch Xu—who often travels the world,” said Lord of Shadowfiend indifferently. “However, he's good at scheming. Many operations in the Six Directions Heaven were designed by him.”

“What about Celestial Thearch Myriad Star?” asked Meng Chuan in puzzlement. “Celestial Thearch Myriad Star controls the laws of time and space… He knows the past and future. He's even more ruthless when it comes to plotting, right?”

The expressionless Apprentice beside him said, “Celestial Thearch Myriad Star's status in the Six Directions Heaven is extraordinary. He's far superior to the other five. Celestial Thearch Myriad Star hardly participates in many of Six Directions Heaven's battles.”

“Once he interferes, it will be a major event,” Lord of Shadowfiend said.

Meng Chuan nodded. That's right. With Celestial Thearch Myriad Star's strength, he can crack array formations with his overwhelming strength. There is no need for him to scheme. If he really wanted to scheme, many Seventh Tribulation Eminences would probably feel alarmed and uneasy.

Meng Chuan's three Essence Soul avatars entered the three largest spacetime layers in Universe's Nest.

Universe's Nest didn't have any stars or other lifeforms; it only had surging energy.

Meng Chuan decided to set up a fixed Eighth Tribulation array formation on the largest layer of Universe Nest. There was no need to set up an array formation on the other two layers. This was because there weren't any precious treasures before each spacetime layer produced a Universe treasure. Thus, very few people would dare to fight him for an empty Universe's Nest layer.

Seventh Tribulation Eminences didn't commit themselves unless success was certain. As an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, Meng Chuan was already considered low-key by only occupying three layers in Universe's Nest instead of fighting for resources with Ancestral Magus Realm, Six Directions Heaven, and Origin Realm.

The Eminences in Universe's Nest were all people who kept low profiles.

What's Myriad Star up to? He wants us to befriend Meng Chuan and not be enemies when we encounter him? Celestial Thearch Chi walked the River of Spacetime as he pondered.

Six Directions Heaven's Celestial Thearchs had long been exhorted by Celestial Thearch Myriad Star.

“White Avian Hall is our opponent, but Meng Chuan isn't. He can become our good friend.” Celestial Thearch Chi remembered Celestial Thearch Myriad Star's words clearly.

In Six Directions Heaven, everyone only needed to obey Celestial Thearch Myriad Star's orders obediently.

In front of a bamboo forest lake.

The white-haired Realm Ancestor continued fishing. The lake reflected countless figures in spacetime.

Whoosh.

A white-robed, white-haired man flew over from afar and landed nearby. He then bowed and said, “Senior Realm Ancestor.”

Realm Ancestor looked up at Meng Chuan and couldn't help but smile. “I really am a senior when seeing a young cultivator like you.”

Realm Ancestor's white hair made him look really old. He was close to the end of his lifespan.

Although Meng Chuan had white hair, his eyes contained endless vitality. His lifeforce was clearly still at its prime—he was still very far from the end of his lifespan.

“Come, sit.” Realm Ancestor pointed to the side. A bamboo chair materialized beside him as alcohol appeared.

Meng Chuan sat down.

“I'm also somewhat surprised that you can cultivate to the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm in 7,000 years. It's truly impressive. Although Hall Lord White Avian is faster than you when it comes to reaching the Seventh Tribulation realm, he's ultimately a Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminence,” said Realm Ancestor. “The path of an Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence is ultimately more difficult. You are much better than me back then. Perhaps you really have a chance of reaching the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm.”

“Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm…” Meng Chuan sighed. “I've read many records. The number of Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminences that have appeared in the River of Spacetime's history can be counted on one hand. There's no information about the Essence Soul Eighth Heavenly Tribulation at all.”

“Eighth Tribulation Eminences have jumped out of the River of Spacetime. If they have the intention of hiding their existence, we won't be able to find out anything about them at all,” said Realm Ancestor. “All we know is that our universe only has dozens of Eighth Tribulation Eminences in history! At the Seventh Tribulation realm, Essence Soul Tribulation Eminences only occupy slightly more than ten percent of the population. I can guess that there are very few Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminences among the few dozen.”

“When I was young, I was ambitious. I wanted to break through to the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm, so I also gathered a lot of information. This information can be given to you,” said Realm Ancestor.

“Thank you, Senior Realm Ancestor.” Meng Chuan was rather grateful.

Realm Ancestor had occupied the position of the strongest Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence in the present era for too long. The intelligence he gathered was definitely much more than what Meng Chuan had now. In terms of historical rankings, Realm Ancestor was slightly higher than Ancestral Master Archean Eon.

Apart from the Eternal treasure he hid, Ancestral Master Archean Eon was only a normal top Seventh Tribulation Eminence in other aspects. Realm Ancestor, on the other hand, was a top Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

“The help provided by the information is limited. Cultivation still depends on yourself. Just grasping time and space is very difficult. In many eras, there are no half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences,” said Realm Ancestor wistfully. “Our era is already dazzling enough. Two half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences actually exist at the same time.”

Meng Chuan nodded.

For example, Archean Eon Realm typically only had a few Supremacies in the same era. But once in a while, stunning geniuses would appear. In fact, more than one would appear. For example, Imperial Lord Black Sand and Grandsire Yin Yang were in the same era.

Another example would be Ancestral Master Archean and Ancestral Master Eon Sea—who were from the same era.

It was the same for the entire River of Spacetime. Most of the time, there were no half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences. However, this era was relatively strong.

“Everything I know about the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm is here. I recorded it personally.” Realm Ancestor flipped his hand and handed a gray book to Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan received it solemnly and couldn't help but probe it with his mind. With his strength, he could naturally read the entire book with a thought.

He couldn't help but be alarmed. He now understood much more about the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm.
