Hall Lord White Avian nodded slightly. He calmly remained seated, but an illusory white bird appeared behind him. It was a projection of his Essence Soul.

This huge white bird had a majestic aura, but upon careful inspection, it appeared somewhat dispirited. Its feathers were stained with many black spots. The black spots wriggled like tadpoles, trying to spread out, but they were forcefully suppressed.

“It doesn’t affect my close-combat strength much,” said Hall Lord White Avian calmly. “I can still unleash strength that’s close to my peak. However, the constant torture and pain will slowly spread over time. Even if I try my best to suppress it, I can only last another 50,000 to 60,000 years at best.”

Realm Ancestor nodded.

ds

Fifty to sixty thousand years? Hall Lord White Avian was very young. He had only cultivated for 50,000 years. Considering his cultivation realm, he had naturally cultivated his body to perfection. He would typically have a 180,000-year lifespan. However, his lifespan was now greatly reduced due to his Essence Soul injury?

Realm Ancestor carefully examined the tadpole-like black dots on the white bird Essence Soul as light swirled in his eyes.

After a long while, he said, “Hall Lord, I’ve seen similar powers before, but I’m helpless against them. I’m afraid that you have to reach the Eighth Tribulation realm with your body. By nurturing your Essence Soul with your body, you can help your Essence Soul expel this power. Another solution is to have your Essence Soul reach the Eighth Tribulation realm so that it can expel this external force.”

“There’s nothing you can do?” White Avian sighed softly. “In the entire River of Spacetime, you are the strongest Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence. If even you can’t do anything, I’m afraid there’s no solution in the River of Spacetime.”

“The eighth Heavenly Tribulation only tests your body,” said Realm Ancestor. “Even if your Essence Soul is injured, you should be able to transcend the tribulation.”

“Yes.” Hall Lord White Avian nodded. “I can suppress my injuries for 30,000 years, and I almost have peak strength. I do have a chance of transcending the tribulation and reaching the Eighth Tribulation realm. However, my injuries will spread even further in the next 30,000 years. My strength will decrease, and it will begin to affect my body. I have no hope of transcending the tribulation once that happens. I will only be struggling at death’s door. However, it’s really difficult to reach the Eighth Tribulation realm within 30,000 years.”

Realm Ancestor nodded slightly.

Yes, it was too difficult.

Even with his normal lifespan, White Avian had a low chance of reaching the Eighth Tribulation realm, much less break through in 30,000 years. “Perhaps finding an Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminence might help you,” said Realm Ancestor.

White Avian shook his head. “Eighth Tribulation Eminences are too rare. My other true body has traveled all over the multiverse, yet I’ve only encountered a few. The only Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminence I’ve encountered is an enemy. He is the reason for my current injuries.”

At that moment, Hall Lord White Avian felt mixed emotions. It was a good thing that he had the opportunity to leave the River of Spacetime and be brought to other universes or even other special places…

These experiences had indeed been an eye-opener for him. He had broadened his horizons and accumulated more knowledge. However, he had encountered even more terrifying enemies and suffered an Essence Soul injury.

“Hall Lord, what did your Eighth Tribulation Eminence friend say? He should have more solutions,” asked Realm Ancestor.

“He said the same thing. Expel this force by relying on myself to become an Eighth Tribulation Eminence,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “If I am to use external force to expel the foreign power, it has to be an Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminence or an Eternal existence.”

“Eternal existence?” Realm Ancestor’s mind jolted when he heard that.

“Eternal existences are only a legend, even to Eighth Tribulation Eminences,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “In other universes and places, there are legends left behind by Eternal existences. Eighth Tribulation Eminences travel across time to search for Eternal existences. However, if Eternal existences are unwilling to meet them, they will never have a chance to meet them.”

“Never have a chance?” Realm Ancestor muttered.

“There are only a few Eternal existences in the multiverse and all of spacetime,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “Many Eighth Tribulation Eminences in the Universe have been searching for one. It’s considered lucky for them to meet one in their lives.”

Realm Ancestor nodded gently. “I’ve only learned that there are only a few Eternal existences in all the universes and different spacetimes today. It has resolved some of my doubts.”

“By the way, are there any legacies left behind by Eternal existences in our River of Spacetime?” asked Realm Ancestor.

“I only know that the Immeasurable Universe and the Void Catalog are suspected to be legacies of Eternal existences,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “After all, many Eighth Tribulation Eminences in our River of Spacetime and other universes have seen these two legacies. They believe that only Eternal existences can write them. As for whether this is actually true or not? Only Eternal existences can confirm it.”

“Only these two legacies?” Realm Ancestor smiled and nodded. “From the looks of it, I have to leave a few more copies of the Void Catalog in my homeworld. However, there are only three copies of the Immeasurable Universe in the entire River of Spacetime. There’s no way to buy them.”

The Void Catalog mainly described spatial laws. It had limited elaboration on other aspects. Therefore, a Seventh Tribulation Eminence could write a new copy after reading it. Therefore, there were quite a few copies around.

The Immeasurable Universe was different. It used the Immeasurable lineage as its core. It described all the laws in the universe in a way that was hundreds, even thousands of times more detailed than the Void Catalog. Its actual value was unimaginable.

Apart from the first copy that came from beyond the universe, the other two copies had been written over a long period of time. Only one Eighth Tribulation Eminence—who had been born in the River of Spacetime—had successfully created one copy, at great cost, after comprehending it. Although the other Eighth Tribulation Eminences had also read the Immeasurable Universe, they couldn’t make a copy.

“Realm Ancestor, if there’s anything you need my help with, feel free to tell me,” said Hall Lord White Avian.

He had two reasons for visiting. Firstly, to treat his injuries. Secondly, to visit this senior.

“There’s nothing. When there’s a need in the future, just help my homeworld and my two juniors,” said Realm Ancestor with a smile.

Hall Lord White Avian nodded.

“By the way,” said Realm Ancestor solemnly, “I have to remind you to be careful of Celestial Thearch Myriad Star.”

Hall Lord White Avian nodded. “Realm Ancestor, don’t worry. I understand. Besides, he can’t threaten me.”

“Thankfully, you are present. Otherwise, I don’t know what this era would’ve been like.” Realm Ancestor thought of something. “By the way, I recently discovered a very talented young man. In the future, he might become a valued member of your White Avian Hall.”

“Oh? He must be impressive to receive such praise from you,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile. “Who is he?”

Realm Ancestor flicked his sleeve.

Many scenes immediately appeared in the lake beside him. Images of Meng Chuan in Archean Eon Realm, Thousand Mountain Star, and Earth Cloud Mystic Realm appeared.

“He still has a true body in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters. I can’t pry into it,” said Realm Ancestor. “He’s a newly-advanced Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence. He has only cultivated for 2,600 years.”

“He reached the Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation realm in 2,600 years?” White Avian was also astounded. “It took me 2,900 years to reach the Sixth Tribulation realm. I only reached the Seventh Tribulation realm early because of a huge opportunity and an epiphany.”

“That’s right. He has a very high chance of reaching the Seventh Tribulation realm,” said Realm Ancestor with a smile. “I’ve recommended a Seventh Tribulation seedling to you. I hope it can help you.”

White Avian nodded. “Thank you.”

“He hasn’t joined any faction yet. He has made a request to all the factions—to enter the Valley of Spacetime. None of them have agreed to his request. The knowledge of his cultivation duration is still a secret. None of them know his true potential,” said Realm Ancestor with a smile. “Furthermore, this kid came from Archean Eon Realm. Senior Archean Eon has definitely given Meng Chuan some of his treasures. He doesn’t lack treasures. Therefore, he isn’t in a hurry to join any faction unless there are enough benefits.”

Hall Lord White Avian nodded. “I see. With such talent, potential, and Senior Archean Eon’s treasures, he will definitely soar. I’ll make arrangements today and invite him to join my White Avian Hall.”

Meng Chuan’s outer realm true body cultivated in the Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters. He wasn’t in a hurry to return because his location was more suitable for receiving invitations from various factions.

Huh?

As the owner of this planetary cave abode, Meng Chuan sensed a dark-red-skinned, tall man descending to the planet. This tall man had one eye with a vertical pupil. His dark-red skin was as rough as rock. He wore a loose robe, and his supercilious gaze seemed to see through all mysteries. White Avian Hall’s deputy hall lord, Blazing Sun? Meng Chuan was shocked. The true person managing White Avian Hall was Blazing Sun.

Hall Lord White Avian was the faction’s supreme leader. He seldom managed matters and focused on his cultivation, leaving Blazing Sun to manage all the faction’s matters with great difficulty. Although he was only a half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminence, he could match a true Seventh Tribulation Eminence with the help of treasures. Considering his actual authority… he was one of the top ten Eminences in the River of Spacetime.

Such an Eminence has come to visit me? Meng Chuan was somewhat shocked. He immediately left the chamber and went outside the cave abode.

Blazing Sun stood there and observed Meng Chuan.

“Greetings, Hall Lord Blazing Sun.” Meng Chuan bowed.
