Archean Eon Art

Meng Chuan, Chi Jiuxin, and Ta Gu sat down and chatted. They also settled the application to establish an Eternal Tower branch in Three Bay River System.

“There’s no problem with this request.” Chi Jiuxin looked at Meng Chuan’s application and nodded slightly. Following that, he said in surprise, “Three Bay River System, Thousand Mountain Star, Eastcalm City? Is this Thousand Mountain Star the one spoken of in history?”

Meng Chuan nodded. “Yes.”

“That’s a Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s cultivation cave abode,” said Chi Jiuxin with a smile. “I’m impressed.”

When Ta Gu heard this, he said, “A cultivation cave abode that was once a Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s? Then, Thousand Mountain Star is safe enough. It can also attract many Tribulation Eminences to set up a garrison at your place.”

They had vast knowledge.

Although a Fifth Tribulation Eminence who helmed a cultivation base left behind by a Sixth Tribulation Eminence was considered lucky, it was still quite common.

As for Sixth Tribulation Eminences, all of them stood at the pinnacle of river zones. They were famous existences in the River of Spacetime. They pursued cultivation grounds known as mystic realms.

Mystic realms were created by Eighth Tribulation Eminences.

Compared to a mystic realm, Meng Chuan’s Thousand Mountain Star was nothing worth mentioning.

“After the application is submitted, Eternal Tower will send you a list after it finishes its investigation on Three Bay River System,” said Chi Jiuxin. “You just need to clear out the factions on the list.”

“How long will it take?” asked Meng Chuan.

“About a year,” said Chi Jiuxin. “A river system is rather vast. Even Eternal Tower will take a year to finish investigating everything. Even then, they can only identify the relatively famous plundering factions.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

It took light tens of thousands of years to fly from one end of a river system to the other.

River systems were vast. Each one had countless stars! Nobody knew how many cultivators were hiding in a river system.

If a plundering faction was very careful and low-key, such as only killing Supremacies without leaving any survivors, it would be very difficult to identify them.

Even with Eternal Tower’s unimaginable means, they could only identify the famous ones.

…

That day, Meng Chuan and Ta Gu left Scarlet Snake Planet and embarked on their separate journeys.

Ta Gu headed for Fuxiu River Zone, while Meng Chuan returned to Three Bay River System.

Whoosh.

Meng Chuan traveled through the River of Spacetime very quickly. On the same day, he returned to Thousand Mountain Star.

A red-robed Zhao Hongxiu stood at the peak of a mountain. She pulled her bow and aimed her arrow into the distance. After a few seconds, she released her grip. The arrow instantly pierced through a void interlayer and struck a distant target.

Suddenly, a white-robed Meng Chuan appeared. With a tap of his finger, the arrow appeared in the void, and it stopped moving.

“Master.” When Zhao Hongxiu saw this, she immediately took a step forward and bowed respectfully.

Meng Chuan looked at his disciple and said with a smile, “Hiding an arrow in a void interlayer is for better stealth. However, void interlayers are ultimately very niche when it comes to space. For cultivation, one should take the widest path from the beginning.”

Zhao Hongxiu’s heart stirred. She immediately bowed excitedly and said, “Master, please guide me.”

“The void is all-encompassing. Just follow your heart and choose a Great Dao that suits you the best. As for what you choose, that’s up to you,” said Meng Chuan with a smile before disappearing.

“Thank you, Master.” Zhao Hongxiu bowed immediately as many thoughts surfaced in her mind.

She had been cultivating for many years. Being left to her own devices, she hadn’t realized the path she was treading. After all, she was once an assassin. Her archery skills had unknowingly developed towards assassination. Her path was narrow.

A wide path and a narrow path naturally had different levels of difficulty, but both led to progress.

Only those with extremely high attainments in the void lineage could tell Zhao Hongxiu’s problem at a glance.

This was also the reason why many cultivators, even Tribulation Eminences, were willing to follow experts. A single pointer from an expert could lead them out from their dead ends. A single sentence could change their lives.

Whoosh.

Meng Chuan landed on the top floor of a building and poured himself a cup of fruit wine.

The fruit wine could invigorate his Essence Soul, increasing his perceptive efficiency.

The third volume of the Void Catalog. Meng Chuan took a sip of wine and began to study every word and drawing carefully.

Without anyone disturbing him, he could fully focus on comprehending the void lineage.

He even temporarily slowed down his studies into Infinite Saber and Nirvana Saber. Figuring out the void lineage’s Fifth Tribulation law was now of paramount importance. After comprehending it, he could fuse three Fifth Tribulation laws together, boosting his chances of forming higher-level laws.

As a Tribulation Eminence, the ultimate path of cultivation was to pursue spacetime laws.

Spacetime was also the source of all laws. The powers of wind, fire, and lightning, including Chaos Holes and Primordial Stars, were derived from spacetime.

Amazing.

As Meng Chuan meditated, ideas constantly surfaced in his mind.

Meng Chuan was extremely addicted to the feeling of reaping benefits constantly.

I wonder if I, Meng Chuan, will be able to produce such a technique in my life. As Meng Chuan meditated, he felt admiration for the creator of the Void Catalog.

It was too impressive.

The Essence Soul legacy—Essence Soul Star—was also an Eighth Tribulation legacy, yet he didn’t gain as much from it compared to studying the Void Catalog. As he studied it, Meng Chuan’s understanding of lightning improved.

A single Dao produced myriad Daos.

Meng Chuan could vaguely sense that the creator of the Void Catalog had completely grasped other paths. It was only because of this that he could easily extract the best out of all the lineages and create the Void Catalog.

One had to know that a complete Dao of Space was only at the Sixth Tribulation realm. It was naturally the strongest path at the Sixth Tribulation realm. With it, one could barely fight a Seventh Tribulation Eminence. Under normal circumstances, only Seventh Tribulation Eminences could grasp a complete Dao of Space.

However, the Dao of Space was divided into three Void Catalog volumes. Just one volume made Meng Chuan feel that it was much better than the Essence Soul Star, an Eighth Tribulation legacy. This was the difference between the creators. It was inevitable that many Tribulation Eminences believed that an Eternal existence created the Void Catalog.

Days passed.

Meng Chuan immersed himself in his comprehension of the Void Catalog. Occasionally, he would send his Essence Soul avatars to a Chaos Hole to test out his moves. Chaos Holes had a huge influence on spacetime. Thus, he had a completely different experience practicing his moves in a Chaos Hole than in normal areas.

His wife, parents, and company could sleep for 1,000 years at most. Meng Chuan had to make every second count. A Chaos Hole was clearly suitable for him to save time.

He had to reach the Sixth Tribulation realm before they finished their 1,000-year slumber!

This way, he could obtain more from Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasure vault. His status in the River of Spacetime would also be much higher. It would also help his wife, parents, and company greatly.

…

In the Cang Alliance Space.

Only the members of the Cang Alliance could condense an embodiment here.

“Eastcalm, Eastcalm, over here.”

Meng Chuan saw a few figures sitting in the distance. Among them, Old Fiend Black Wind waved his hand with a smile. Meng Chuan walked over.

“This is Brother Eastcalm?” A short fatty stood up with a smile. He was as fat as a ball, and his skin was very fair. “I’ve long heard about you. It’s our first time meeting today.”

“Brother Fu Sui?” Meng Chuan smiled as well. Although he was meeting him for the first time, he knew all of the Cang Alliance members because of the basic intelligence given to him. He naturally recognized Fu Sui at once. He looked at the other three people around him. They were Old Fiend Black Wind, Zi Yao, and Mountain Lord Boneserve.

In the Cang Alliance, there were people who liked to make friends.

The more friends they had, the larger their social network. It made it easier for them to obtain opportunities.

For example, Zi Yao and Mountain Lord Boneserve had many old friends. Although Old Fiend Black Wind had just joined the alliance, he was also eager to befriend others. They spent half a month here every month with their embodiments to befriend the various members of the Cang Alliance.

As a newbie, Meng Chuan was happy to befriend others.
