Archean Eon Art-Novel2

Chapter 648 25,000 Kilometers on Fiend Mountain

The reason why Meng Chuan’s outer realm true body didn’t cultivate on Fiend Mountain’s path of the mind was that he didn’t want to affect his homeworld’s true body, which was studying the Void Catalog.

On the path of the mind, the mountaintop’s voice constantly attacked his Essence Soul. The interference was too great. Meng Chuan undoubtedly gave the comprehension of the Void Catalog top priority.

The Void Catalog is the most precious manual I’ve obtained to date. Meng Chuan was enamored by it. Although he had memorized all three volumes with a single glance at his cultivation realm, he had taken a long time studying every word and every painting. He even went to a Chaos Hole’s depths, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, and the Great Seal Eternal treasure to verify his ideas.

Concrete verification was actually more important. If one were to enter seclusion and meditate, they would only deviate further and become closer to fantasy. The ideas one came up with would be different from the real laws.

Only by putting his deductions into practice could Meng Chuan understand which were right and which were wrong. He would also understand which direction he should take. If he meditated for a year, he might spend ten to twenty years doing experiments. This was followed by meditation and verifications again... This cycle continued without end.

This was how cultivation was. One relied on a slow accumulation over a long period of time. As one’s accumulations deepened, success would naturally follow. Meng Chuan was afraid that his accumulation process would stagnate, preventing him from advancing any further. However, he constantly improved while studying the Void Catalog! It was as though an Eternal existence was carefully teaching him... He had to be fully focused during his meditation, unwilling to be disturbed by anything. However, he only needed to split a portion of his mental strength to verify his insights when carrying out experiments. He could cultivate the path of the mind at the same time. He could even study the Great Seal Eternal treasure, cultivate the Pupil of Darkness mystic technique, cultivate in the Chaos Hole’s depths, and verify his insights in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm simultaneously.

It was very easy for an Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence to do thousands of tasks simultaneously.

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, Meng Chuan spent 600 years cultivating; fifty years had passed in the outside world.

This was mainly because the time flow was very fast in the Chaos Hole’s depths. Meng Chuan experienced a thousand-fold faster time flow in the Chaos Hole’s depths. Even if he occasionally went there, he still consumed his lifespan extremely quickly. However, the deeper he went into the Chaos Hole, the more spacetime distorted. As someone who wanted to comprehend a Chaos Hole law, he often went to the Chaos Hole’s depths.

Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, Realm Palace.

Meng Chuan sat cross-legged in front of the lake. However, his consciousness descended upon a dangerous area in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm—the Dark Maze. He practiced void techniques in the Dark Maze.

Condense.

In the Dark Maze, spacetime was chaotic and unpredictable. It was the perfect place for studying time and space.

As the mystic realm’s owner, Meng Chuan could easily control the entire Dark Maze. At that moment, he condensed a void blade with a thought. The void blade—which was difficult to see with the naked eye-seemed to condense the void billions of times, completely turning it into a weapon.

The ordinary void was very weak. Even Supremacies could tear through it. It was like water in the River of Spacetime. When the void condensed into a weapon, it was like water forming a water blade. Mortals could easily splash water, but when a water blade had condensed, it could easily slice through things that were hundreds or thousands of times tougher than mortals.

It was the same for the void blade. It was terrifyingly sharp.

Split. Meng Chuan sent another thought. The void no longer remained condensed and compressed. Instead, it split apart. It was completely separated. From the outermost layer to the bottommost layer, the void was separated. When the void was separated, a new void would naturally appear. It was like a patch.

When the void was split apart, the living beings and matter that lived in space would be split into two. This was an even more terrifying method of splitting.

As the mystic realm’s owner, my control over the laws is much stronger. However, I can’t do it in the outside world. Meng Chuan carefully experienced it. In the mystic realm, his strength soared to the level of a Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

Anyone below the Seventh Tribulation realm would be sending themselves to their deaths if they entered. Therefore, this was the most suitable place for long-term experimentation.

Huh?

Meng Chuan suddenly turned his head and looked at a spot in the distance. In the depths of his eyes were extremely complicated runes. There were billions of runes, and they were formed layer by layer. These runes were formed by Meng Chuan’s cultivation of the Pupil of Darkness. As his understanding of spatial laws deepened, he also became more proficient with the mystic technique.

Meng Chuan had reached the 63rd level of the Pupil of Darkness—which had a total of 90 levels. This represented his realm. However, as a willpower-type mystic technique, its strength was mainly determined by one’s willpower.

The mystic technique was like a weapon. Meng Chuan’s willpower was like a weapon-wielding hand. By cultivating the Pupil of Darkness to this level, obtaining it was a natural result during his experimentations.

Master summoned me? Meng Chuan looked into the distance and took a step forward, arriving at Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. In the Earth realm, Qin Wu lived in seclusion at a beautiful valley.

“Master, you were looking for me?” Meng Chuan smiled as he walked over.

Qin Wu looked at Meng Chuan and nodded slightly. “I have something to trouble you with.” historical

“What’s the matter?” Meng Chuan was astonished. His master, Qin Wu, wasn’t one who was willing to request help. Just like how he had long prepared longevity extension treasures for his master, his master wasn’t willing to use them either.

After coming to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, Qin Wu cultivated in a far more crazy manner. There were many cultivation treasures in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. Under Meng Chuan’s arrangements, Qin Wu could choose any one of them. He entered all the areas that could aid his Essence Soul cultivation.

Land of Nightmare, Secular World Painting...

Qin Wu didn’t hesitate at all in visiting all these places—even if death was a possibility.

Meng Chuan could do nothing about it. Fortune and disaster were two sides of the same coin. Many cultivation lands were accompanied by danger, yet Qin Wu managed to survive. Furthermore, he had attained a seventh-level Essence Soul before the end of his lifespan. He managed to reach the Imperial Lord realm through his efforts alone. “It’s Luo Tang.” Qin Wu looked at Meng Chuan. “I once told her that I gained a lot from the Secular World Painting. She also entered, but she ended up with mental demons.”

Mental demons? Meng Chuan was taken aback.

“She’s currently traveling alone.” Qin Wu sighed. “Her personality has changed drastically because of this.”

Meng Chuan nodded. With a thought, he locked onto Supremacy Luo Tang.

Luo Tang—who was dressed in a yellow robestood on a mountain as she blankly stared at the cultivators fighting in the distance.

Whoosh.

With a thought, Luo Tang was teleported, and she appeared in the valley. Luo Tang also saw Meng Chuan and Qin Wu.

“Meng Chuan, Qin Wu.” Luo Tang nodded slightly.

“Can I see your Essence Soul?” asked Meng Chuan. “Perhaps I need to see your memories after you came to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.”

Luo Tang nodded and said calmly, “Alright, but I don’t think you can help me.”

Meng Chuan looked at her.

His Power of Essence Soul instantly seeped into Luo Tang’s body. Luo Tang’s Essence Soul looked like a bright flower, but it was somewhat dispirited.

Her Essence Soul isn’t injured, and it isn’t affected by external forces. In that case, it’s because of her memories? With a thought, Meng Chuan finished reading all her memories in the blink of an eye.

“Luo Tang.” Meng Chuan said, “Your experiences in the Secular World Painting caused your personality to change. As long as you remove all memories related to the Secular World Painting, you will naturally recover slowly.” “There’s no need. That memory is very beautiful.” Luo Tang smiled. “I don’t want to remove this precious memory. Meng Chuan, I know my limits. My talent is far inferior to Qin Wu’s. When placed in human history, I’m only an ordinary Supremacy. Ever since I came to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm to cultivate, I’ve found myself very far from the Heaven Earth realm. My Essence Soul has stagnated at the fifth-level Essence Soul realm. In the future, I want to return to Archean Eon Realm and spend the rest of my life back home.”

After cultivating in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm for 500 years, Luo Tang had completely recognized her potential.

Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright.”

He also knew that only one in ten Supremacies that came to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm would reach the Heaven Earth realm. Luo Tang was indeed inferior.

Even the Demon Annihilation Guild Master, Jing Fei—who was more talented than Luo Tang—failed to reach the Heaven Earth realm a few years ago. When he only had about 30 years left to live, he returned to Archean Eon Realm.

“Do you still want to stay in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm? I can send you back at any time,” said Meng Chuan. Although he had stipulated a return every 100 years, Supremacy Luo Tang was an exception.

“I’ll go back now.” Luo Tang smiled slightly at Qin Wu.

Meng Chuan sent another Essence Soul avatar to leave Earth Cloud Mystic Realm with Luo Tang.

“It’s truly very difficult to cultivate to the Imperial Lord realm,” said Qin Wu with a sigh. “Most of them stop at the Supremacy realm. Even I’m considered quite talented. If it weren’t for the supplementary treasures you gave me and the special lands in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, I wouldn’t have been able to become an Imperial Lord.”

Qin Wu knew very well that his limit was becoming a Heaven Earth realm Supremacy before his end.

“Master, it’s relatively easier to cultivate as an Imperial Lord,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “In the outer realm, one out of ten Imperial Lords can reach the Tribulation realm.”

Supremacies needed to break through from the perfected Grotto-Heaven realm to the Heaven Earth realm.

Their Essence Souls needed to reach the seventh level. The two thresholds were a qualitative transformation, making it very difficult.

An Imperial Lord needed to reach the perfected Heaven Earth realm from the Heaven Earth realm’s early stage. After all, one only needed to reach the perfected Heaven Earth realm on a single path. If one’s body was perfected, they could naturally transcend the tribulation. “Let’s hope so. If I can reach the Tribulation realm, we’ll have another Godfiend body that can reach the Tribulation realm.” Qin Wu was also looking forward to it.

The path of the mind in Fiend Mountain.

Meng Chuan walked.

The Supremacies in my homeworld-Luo Tang, Jing Fei, and the others—have all aged. Meng Chuan also knew that many of his old friends would die. In the future, Archean Eon Realm would be filled with the younger generation.

This is time.

Meng Chuan continued walking on the path of the mind. Suddenly, he was stunned. At a glance, he saw that the path of the mind and the path of epiphany had merged into a single path further up on Fiend Mountain, just below the lingering clouds.

After 25,000 kilometers, the path of the mind and the path of epiphany actually merge into one? Meng Chuan was somewhat shocked. He wasn’t aware of this previously.

Due to Meng Chuan painting Perfection and creating his own Essence Soul formulation, his willpower had improved greatly. In addition, his understanding of spacetime had improved after studying the Void Catalog over the past few years. This improved Meng Chuan’s willpower slightly. Therefore, it was very easy for Meng Chuan to walk the path of the mind. The path of the mind didn’t provide much help to his Essence Soul. Therefore, he walked very quickly early on. He only slowed down when he reached 21,500 kilometers.

Meng Chuan had already walked nearly 25,000 kilometers. With his vision, he could vaguely see that the path of the mind and the path of epiphany merged as one around the spot at the 25,000-kilometer-mark in the clouds.

Realm Ancestor said that one’s willpower is at the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm’s threshold once they can travel 25,000 kilometers on the path of the mind. Could he be referring to this merging point? Meng Chuan looked into the distance.
