Archean Eon Art

Chapter 626 Entering Fiend Mountain Again

In a study in Jiang State Capital’s Meng Manor.

The spring sunlight shone through the window, causing the paper on the table to become a little blinding from the reflection. Meng Chuan was smiling as he painted. He had a hobby of painting. Back when he hunted down demon monarchs underground, he insisted on painting every day. However, ever since his wife entered a slumber, Meng Chuan very rarely painted.

Today, Liu Qiyue was writing while Meng Chuan leisurely painted. He felt especially relaxed.

“Ah Chuan.” Liu Qiyue suddenly stopped writing and turned to look at her husband. “You can tell what’s on You’er’s mind, right?”

“You’er?” Meng Chuan paused and nodded. “I can guess. That kid, Yang Yuan, has only reached the Marquis Godfiend realm. He’s already close to the end of his 300-year lifespan. As a mother, she naturally can’t bear to watch her son die, especially when she knows that I have longevity extension treasures.”

“What are your plans?” asked Liu Qiyue.

“Plans?” Meng Chuan looked out the window. His gaze crossed the void, and he looked down at Archean Eon Realm’s people. “For this peaceful day, over 2,300,000 Godfiends died in the war that lasted over 900 years. Billions of mortal soldiers died in battle, and even more innocent commoners were slaughtered. Countless heroes died in battle. For example, Senior Brother King True Martial, Senior Brother Xue, and the others were all talented, but they died in battle for their fellow men.”

“That little fellow, Yang Yuan, was born in the lap of luxury. He lived carefreely for nearly 300 years. What else does he want?” said Meng Chuan indifferently. “I, Meng Chuan, am also human. I also have selfish thoughts, but everything has its limits.”

“Father, mother, son, and daughter. With my cultivation to date, it’s fine if I help my family extend their lifespans. As for the third generation? If they have the talent, they can be given a small number of cultivation resources. They can just be nurtured as the sect’s core. If they don’t have the ability, there’s no need to waste resources. If You’er and her husband, Yang Cheng, want to save him, they will have to rely on their own abilities.”

Meng Chuan looked at his wife. “Qiyue, although most of the treasures I’ve accumulated since I started cultivating have been left to the race, I’ve also left behind a treasure for you. If I fail to transcend the tribulation and die, you will be in charge of this resource. I hope you won’t pamper our descendants.”

“Don’t even mention dying from the tribulation,” said Liu Qiyue immediately. “We’ve seen so many life-and-death situations. There’s nothing taboo that can’t be talked about.” Meng Chuan glanced at his wife. “You said you were confident.” Liu Qiyue stared at her husband.

Meng Chuan nodded and smiled. “Of course, I’m confident! I’ve already cultivated an Essence Soul World Treasure. I woke you up two days ago to extend your lifespan. My painting of Perfection has improved my insights into the Essence Soul Star formulation. My mind has also improved. I’m very confident that I can transcend the tribulation successfully. However, I don’t know what I’ll encounter before actually transcending the tribulation.”

“You don’t have to accompany me every day. It’s more important to prepare for the tribulation.” Liu Qiyue stared at her husband solemnly.

“Don’t worry. My other true body left Archean Eon Realm yesterday and headed for the Fiend Mountain ruin,” said Meng Chuan. “In the days before the tribulation, my other true body will stay on Fiend Mountain to temper my Essence Soul.”

Fiend Mountain ruin.

Swoosh.

Meng Chuan flew across the vast land and headed toward the black Fiend Mountain. This was his second time coming to the Fiend Mountain ruin.

Fu Sui brought the three of us in last time. At the very least, it was useful to me, Meng Chuan thought. This was also the reason why he still tolerated Fu Sui despite his drastic change in personality. He had to admit that it was all thanks to Fu Sui that he obtained this opportunity. With this opportunity, his willpower had indeed become much stronger.

The four people who entered that time had different fates.

Meng Chuan had a strong foundation to begin with. He was only one step away from the true Sixth Tribulation realm. All he needed was to transcend the tribulation. He was the strongest one.

Fu Sui had grasped the method to enter. He had taken the path of epiphany and instantly comprehended a Sixth Tribulation law. However, it resulted in endless trouble.

Meng Hu, who came from a high-level world, had gained some benefits. He was plagued by calamities and now relied on his homeworld, Heavenly Dream Realm, to save him.

Old Fiend Black Wind was originally the weakest of the four. He had only grasped one Fifth Tribulation law, but he relied on the Fiend Mountain ruin to approach the Sixth Tribulation realm. He didn’t bring much trouble to himself.

Meng Chuan’s willpower was strong enough, so he had traveled far on the third path and became an ordinary Fiend Mountain member. His gains were greater than that of Old Fiend Black Wind.

For example, Fu Sui had later sent quite a number of Fifth Tribulation Eminences in. Some had taken the third path, but they failed to go far. They were still far from reaching 5,000 kilometers.

Clearly, the threshold for becoming an ordinary member of Fiend Mountain was extremely high! The ancient existence that created Fiend Mountain had set this threshold because one could only be of value by reaching this threshold.

Whoosh.

Meng Chuan flew to Fiend Mountain and circled the mountain range for half a day. He found two spots to harvest-each was worth more than 10,000 cubes-before stepping onto the third path while in a good mood.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Although a voice sounded in his mind, and every word in the voice seemed to strike his Essence Soul, giving him immense pressure, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul and willpower was strong enough. He naturally forcefully resisted the voice and advanced rapidly. He walked 5,000 kilometers until he reached the spot where he had previously given up.

Last time, I gave up here because I couldn’t advance any further. However, it’s much easier this time. Meng Chuan could sense that his willpower had become stronger. His insights into the Essence Soul Star formulation had also deepened. His Essence Soul had become even more stable, allowing him to withstand the brunt of the impact easily.

Let’s begin. Meng Chuan followed his original routine. With every step he took, he stopped and carefully sensed the voice that seemed to come from the peak of Fiend Mountain. After comprehending it, he took another step. He advanced at an extremely slow speed.

In Fiend Mountain ruin’s first path.

A shrunken stone giant-Starlord Ancient Desert-was walking. At the same time, he was immersed in his epiphany. Although everyone knew that the path of epiphany required one to pay a huge price due to the endless calamities, that didn’t stop Fifth Tribulation Eminences from taking this path. These Fifth Tribulation Eminences had their own thoughts. Some were putting up a final struggle before the end of their lifespans. Some felt that they could curb their greed and be satisfied after two to three years. Some urgently needed to become stronger and were willing to pay the price… As expected of the path of epiphany. I’ve already comprehended a second Fifth Tribulation law. The stone giant, Starlord Ancient Desert, stopped and grinned. His heart surged when he comprehended a complete Fifth Tribulation technique. He temporarily escaped from his epiphany state.

I’ll give up after another two years, thought the stone giant to himself. In reality, when cultivators embarked on the path of epiphany, they would think it wouldn’t matter even if they continued for an additional year and that it wouldn’t be a huge problem for them to continue for two more years.

The more arduous their cultivation previously was, the more unwilling they were to give up when they were in a state of epiphany. After all, a year here might be much better than a lifetime in the outside world. It was too difficult to give up. The stone giant stopped and looked up. His gaze naturally swept across Fiend Mountain. Suddenly, his eyes widened. What? There’s a cultivator at the 5,000-kilometer mark on the third path? The stone giant stared at the tiny figure in shock.

According to his current experience, the third path placed immense pressure on the Essence Soul. Most people would stop before reaching 500 kilometers.

Over 5,000 kilometers?

Eh? That’s… The stone giant looked at the tiny figure from afar. After all, they were all members of the Cang Alliance. They had met in the Cang Alliance Space before. Therefore, he immediately recognized the figure. It’s Eastcalm? Why is he here again?

Meng Chuan couldn’t help turning his head when he sensed another living being watching him.

Hundreds of kilometers away, a Fifth Tribulation Eminence’s and a Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s gazes met. Due to him constantly resisting Fiend Mountain’s voice, Meng Chuan’s mind and willpower were extremely focused. He resisted with all his might. At that moment, he instinctively turned his head to take a glance. The powerful willpower contained in his gaze made the stone giant’s mind rumble before it instantly went blank.

The stone giant stood there in a daze. Only when Meng Chuan stopped looking at him and continued advancing slowly did the stone giant wake up.

The Essence Soul pressure is so strong? He has reached the Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation realm? The stone giant was somewhat shocked.
