Archean Eon Art

“Refuse?” Guild Master Fiend Eye’s single eye examined Meng Chuan, and he smiled. “You seem to be very confident? Tell me what’s backing you. Perhaps I’ll change my mind.”

Meng Chuan looked at the other party. The intelligence had long recorded that the Guild Master Fiend Eye had a fiendish and capricious personality. This was also one of the reasons why the Fiend Eye Guild collapsed after he hid for nearly 30,000 years. None of the Eminences who followed Guild Master Fiend Eye had any loyalty to him. This was because Fiend Eye never cared about relationships. He only cared about tangible benefits.

“You want to destroy all my avatars?” said Meng Chuan. “I’m an Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence. I can produce Essence Soul avatars with a thought. How many can you destroy?”

“If any one of you comes out, I’ll capture one alive and seal it.” Fiend Eye smiled at Meng Chuan. “If I capture nine of you alive, won’t you only have one true body left in your homeworld? I only need to attack nine times. It’s not troublesome.”

Meng Chuan said indifferently, “One of my Essence Soul avatars will be left in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters. Can you kill it?”

“There are only a limited number of cultivation opportunities in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters,” said Fiend Eye casually. “You can only cultivate in your homeworld and the River of Spacetime headquarters. You can’t go to the many magical places in the outer realm. How far can you cultivate with such limitations? You probably have no hope of reaching the Seventh Tribulation realm.”

Yes.

If Meng Chuan’s range of activity was limited to his homeworld-Archean Eon Realm-and Eternal Tower’s headquarters in the River of Spacetime, Meng Chuan’s cultivation conditions would be much more inferior. For example, he couldn’t go to the Valley of Spacetime or many mystical places, nor could he go to a Chaos Hole’s depths… To Meng Chuan, who wanted to comprehend the Chaos Hole law, his chances of reaching the Seventh Tribulation realm would indeed decrease greatly.

“Guild Master, what do you think of this move of mine?” Meng Chuan stood where he was as the surrounding void distorted. If one was weak, they wouldn’t be able to tell, but Fiend Eye could tell at a glance that the surrounding void fluctuations were completely restrained. Furthermore, the void had been sliced into tens of thousands of layers. Meng Chuan’s figure could be seen in every layer of space.

Fiend Eye’s single eye was colored in astonishment. He nodded and gave his evaluation. “Domain of the void, control over the void, and void traversal. You have comprehended the spatial law’s three tenets sufficiently well.” Meng Chuan had long grasped the spatial law’s three tenets. After obtaining the Void Catalog’s remaining two volumes, he had cultivated for more than 600 years. Meng Chuan had accumulated enough insights into the other two aspects as well. This was the use of the Void Catalog. Without such a brilliant legacy, it would probably take him several times longer to reach the same realm.

“I’ve only cultivated for 3,000 years,” said Meng Chuan indifferently. “I’ve long obtained the complete Void Catalog. With my insights into the Dao of Space and the fact that I can cultivate in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters, do you think I have a chance of grasping a spatial law in 10,000 years?”

Since he couldn’t enter a Chaos Hole’s depths to cultivate, his chances of grasping a Chaos Hole law would greatly decrease. However, space was everywhere.

With his current insights and talent, together with the Void Catalog’s guidance, Meng Chuan was confident that he could buy a large number of resources from the River of Spacetime’s headquarters even if he couldn’t go to many places.

“In 10,000 years?” Fiend Eye looked at Meng Chuan.

“As long as I grasp the spatial law, will you be able to capture my Essence Soul avatars alive?” Meng Chuan looked at him.

A spatial law implied complete control over space. With a spatial law, one could exchange blows with a Seventh Tribulation Eminence. If the situation wasn’t good, one could instantly destroy an Essence Soul avatar. Fiend Eye had no way of capturing an existence who grasped the spatial law alive before they could react.

no

“After grasping the spatial law, I can constantly send my avatars to various places in the outer realm,” said Meng Chuan. “When the time comes, will you be pursuing my avatars all the time and not do anything else?”

Fiend Eye was a Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminence. His homeworld had one true body, leaving only one true body available in the outer realm. He had no time to do anything else if he kept pursuing Meng Chuan.

Therefore, even Seventh Tribulation Eminences found it difficult to threaten Sixth Tribulation Eminences who grasped a spatial law.

“Grasp a spatial law?” Fiend Eye carefully looked at Meng Chuan. In his eyes, he saw the timeline.

Meng Chuan had many temporal lines on him. The past lines were unique and constant, but the future lines connected to Meng Chuan were endless. They extended into the endless future, representing Meng Chuan’s possible futures.

As an existence that once stood at the peak of the River of Spacetime 80,000 years ago, his strength was comparable to that of Ancestral Magus King. Although he was now heavily injured, he had been focused on comprehending the temporal law all this while. His insights into the temporal law were extremely profound. Fiend Eye naturally had his ambitions. He also wanted to grasp the temporal law completely before his death. When that happened, he could also become a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence. With his current insights, he could at least see a portion of Meng Chuan’s future. The future hadn’t happened, so it was uncertain. However, with the various elements present to date, he could see many possible futures. Fiend Eye’s single eye traced one of the timelines and saw a future scene.

It was in the vast and surging Chaos River Zone.

A white-haired, white-robed man sat cross-legged. In the sky was a huge painting. The painting covered the vast river zone, and Chaos Holes were in the middle of the painting. An invisible force enveloped the area below. A stocky existence stood in the river and roared. It was massive in size, with 16 curved horns on its head and sharp spikes on its back. Countless mystic runes surfaced on its skin. Just seeing it made one feel endless horror and fear.

“Eastcalm, I’ve already admitted defeat and am willing to leave this universe. Why aren’t you letting me leave?” roared the stocky existence angrily. “Leave?” Countless runes appeared in the white-haired man’s eyes. His eyes turned dark and terrifying

The stocky existence trembled in pain. Heads appeared on his skin due to the pain, but some of the heads shattered with a bang, causing the stocky existence to howl in pain. His body split apart, and billions of figures charged towards the white-robed, white-haired man.

The future of a Seventh Tribulation Eminence? Furthermore, he can hunt down a Seventh Tribulation forbidden creature? Fiend Eye was somewhat surprised. A Sixth Tribulation Eminence with high talent indeed has a chance of reaching the Seventh Tribulation realm. A single future timeline doesn’t mean anything.

He traced another timeline.

A man with countless stars floating behind him had an extremely terrifying aura as it produced invisible waves that affected countless river zones. He coldly glared at the white-robed, white-haired man.

“Celestial Thearch Myriad Star.” The white-robed, white-haired Meng Chuan stared at the man. The painting was vast and continuous. It also affected the endless spacetime.

Humph. Fiend Eye felt his eye ache as it turned bloodshot. Clearly, looking at the scene with the two existences was a huge burden on him.

What? He will fight Celestial Thearch Myriad Star? He also doesn’t seem to be at a disadvantage? Fiend Eye was shocked. He could easily view the futures of ordinary Supremacies and Imperial Lords, but it was very burdensome for him to view a Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s future.

As Meng Chuan was very young, Fiend Eye wanted to take a cursory probe. However, he was shocked when he saw two futures.

Third future timeline, fourth future timeline, fifth future timeline…

Fiend Eye couldn’t help but look at the next one after he was done with one. Although he felt the burden increase, he continued bearing with it.

The eighth future timeline.

It was a barren void. Fiend Eye was fleeing in panic when a vast painting suddenly enveloped the spacetime around him. Spacetime became completely sealed, making it look like a painting. Fiend Eye turned his head with great difficulty while inside the painting. When he saw a white-robed, white-haired man appear behind him, he immediately bowed respectfully. Just as he wanted to say something…

Whoosh.

Bam!

Fiend Eye-who was prying into the eighth future timeline-suddenly had his single eye explode. Blood splattered. Fiend Eye clutched his eye. His eye rapidly recovered, but it would take him several years to expel the spacetime backlash from within. He stared at the young man in front of him, who was calmly staring at him. If the timeline Fiend Eye pried into involved himself, the backlash would be even worse. He was unable to hold back his temptation and finally reached his limits.

I’ve seen eight future timelines in a row. Eight futures… He reaches the Seventh Tribulation realm in all of them, thought Fiend Eye. An Eighth Tribulation Eminence can completely jump out of the timeline, making it impossible for others to pry into their future. Although I didn’t pry into the other future timelines, it means that it’s very likely Meng Chuan will ultimately reach the Seventh Tribulation realm, no matter what decision I make now.

By prying into the future, one could determine a cultivator’s potential based on probability.

Currently, only a handful of people in the River of Spacetime could pry into Sixth Tribulation Eminences’ futures. Fiend Eye was one of them.

Fiend Eye was certain that it would be difficult for him to prevent the young man from rising to prominence, no matter what decision he made. At the very least, there was a high chance that the other party would still become a Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

Oh? Meng Chuan looked at Fiend Eye in puzzlement. He had said everything he needed to say, but Fiend Eye ended up falling silent for a long time.

Meng Chuan didn’t see the scene of Fiend Eye’s eye rupturing. All he knew was Fiend Eye that kept staring at him.

“What you say makes sense,” said Fiend Eye with a smile. “With your current insights into the Dao of Space, you will still have a chance of grasping a spatial law in 10,000 years even if I exert pressure on you. When that happens, my efforts would be meaningless.”

Meng Chuan was confident.

There was another reason that remained unspoken. His homeworld had an Eternal treasure seal left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon. It was also a huge opportunity.

“You convinced me, so I’ve changed my mind,” said Fiend Eye with a smile.
