Archean Eon Art

Chapter 641 Hall Lord White Avian

Standing at the cave abode’s entrance, Meng Chuan watched the purple-robed man leave. It’s just as I expected. It’s too difficult for a newly-advanced Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence to enter the Valley of Spacetime. Meng Chuan also understood that there were tacit rules regarding the distribution of resources within the various factions. There were only a few ways to receive precious resources-one silently contributed and accumulated enough credit over time for a chance, one had dazzling talent that attracted the faction’s nurturing, or one had a powerful backer…

Meng Chuan was only a newly-advanced Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence on the surface. He naturally had no place in line to enter the Valley of Spacetime.

Meng Chuan shook his head slightly. Fifteen factions have already invited me. They’ve also already given me their conditions. The largest factions-Six Directions Heaven, White Avian Hall, and Ancestral Magus Realm-have given average conditions regarding the Valley of Spacetime. Forget it. Since I can’t enter the Valley of Spacetime, I’m not in a hurry to join a faction.

What was the point of joining a faction? For the sake of obtaining precious resources!

However, joining a faction would result in Meng Chuan being embroiled in all sorts of troubles.

The Void Trileaf Flower was not purchasable anywhere. Furthermore, it would have to be consumed within a day after it was born. Therefore, Meng Chuan was willing to join a faction for the sake of the Void Trileaf Flower.

Apart from the Void Trileaf Flower, I can still buy most of the other resources I need for cultivation. I happen to be able to afford them.

Meng Chuan—who had obtained half of Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasureswas comparable to a Seventh Tribulation Eminence in terms of wealth. Of course, Meng Chuan had long decided that he would only use a small portion of Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasures. In the future, he would return what he took several-fold.

Since he had just reached the Sixth Tribulation realm, he could use some of the treasures while lying dormant.

Whoosh.

Meng Chuan returned to his cave abode’s chamber and waved his hand. A pile of treasures appeared in front of him.

I have to sell all of these. Meng Chuan contacted Eternal Tower through his identity token.

Hum.

A colorful light descended and enveloped the treasures.

“Eternal Tower can directly purchase these treasures for 650,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals. If they’re consigned to Eternal Tower, they can be sold for 700,000 cubes. A sale typically happens within 1,000 years,” said a boundless voice.

“Consignments,” said Meng Chuan directly. “I can use these treasures as collateral to exchange for the Void Catalog’s first and second volumes, am I right?”

“You can use them as collateral,” replied the boundless voice.

Consigned treasures didn’t have a clear sale date.

However, Meng Chuan could only receive 80% of the consigned items’ value in advance-in Outer realm Essence Crystals—at maximum. For example, Meng Chuan could take away 560,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals first. He could only obtain the rest after the items were sold.

If he used the consigned items as collateral to buy treasures in Eternal Tower, he could buy treasures worth 630,000 cubes in Eternal Tower—90% of his consigned items’ face value. He would only obtain the remaining Outer Realm Essence Crystals after the items were sold as well.

Eternal Tower could earn money from transactions.

“I’ll exchange for the Void Catalog’s first and second volumes,” said Meng Chuan.

Whoosh.

In just three seconds, two thick, black books appeared in the chamber.

Eternal Tower’s headquarters in the River of Spacetime was like their river zone Eternal Tower headquarters’ ninth floor. One could teleport things through spacetime.

It was very safe in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters.

The Sixth and Seventh Tribulation Eminences that were special lifeforms were very willing to leave their true bodies in the headquarters. This was because even Hall Lord White Avian and Celestial Thearch Myriad Star couldn’t engage in a massacre in Eternal Tower’s River of Spacetime headquarters.

I didn’t use a basic-level Eternal Token and directly bought these two volumes. Meng Chuan excitedly received the two black books.

Buying a volume of the Void Catalog for 300,000 cubes was a privilege that only Eternal Tower’s Sixth Tribulation Eminences and stronger had.

Basic-level Eternal Tokens could be used by external members. Therefore, a basic-level Eternal Token was worth more than 300,000 cubes.

There was a basic-level Eternal Token, an intermediate-level Eternal Token, and even an advanced-level Eternal Token in Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasure vault. However, Meng Chuan wouldn’t use them easily.

The Void Catalog really is a good book. With a flip of his hand, Meng Chuan took out a calabash and drank a mouthful of fruit wine. His Essence Soul became much more ethereal. With the help of rare treasures, he began to read the two Void Catalog volumes seriously.

Meng Chuan planned to study the laws of spacetime. He would focus on the Void Catalog’s three volumes and use supplementary treasures like the Void Trileaf Flower.

I’m not in a hurry.

I’ll carefully study these two volumes in my normal cultivation state first. After studying them, I’ll consume the Void Trileaf Flower in the future before studying them again. This is the most suitable method. Meng Chuan had already planned his cultivation out. He hadn’t even finished comprehending the Void Catalog’s three volumes.

Using a Void Trileaf Flower before one finished comprehending the Void Catalog was the worst method.

Days passed.

Meng Chuan was immersed in studying the Void Catalog

Spatial laws were the strongest Sixth Tribulation laws. Although they were typically grasped by Seventh Tribulation Eminences, Sixth Tribulation Eminences occasionally comprehended them as well. Therefore, it was very common for books to record spatial laws. For example, the Lightning Realm—which Meng Chuan had learned-contained complete spatial laws.

However, Meng Chuan still used a basic-level Eternal Token and 600,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals to buy the Void Catalog’s three complete volumes. This was because this manual wasn’t just limited to spatial laws.

The Void Catalog’s creator viewed things from a strategically advantageous position. The creator could easily write down the spatial laws’ outline and even link them to other laws.

Only in this manual could one clearly sense that all the laws originated from spacetime. Meng Chuan had to thank the Void Catalog’s third volume for allowing him to comprehend the lightning law so quickly.

Amazing. The creator of this manual should be an Eternal existence. The more Meng Chuan studied it, the more he admired the existence that had written this manual.

Every sentence in the manual seemed to make utmost sense. They could be used in the reproduction of all things—the circulation of water, the burning of flames, and the roar of lightning… They were all compatible! With the manual’s guidance, Meng Chuan made many connections and comprehended many profundities. Even when different laws were connected, Meng Chuan’s understanding of spacetime improved. It’s too worth it. Meng Chuan was intoxicated by the feeling of constantly gaining insights.

Expert teachers produce outstanding disciples. Though the Void Catalog’s three volumes might not be comparable to an Eternal existence’s personal explanation, it was still better than an Eighth Tribulation Eminence’s lecture. The words within the manual contained endless wisdom. In the face of such wisdom, Meng Chuan felt like he was constantly growing.

One’s cultivation realm is one of the two fundamental aspects of cultivation.

To an Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence, one’s technique realm and willpower were two important aspects. Low technique realm meant low overall strength. Only when one’s technique realm was high could they be truly powerful. At the same time, one had to have high willpower. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to withstand such laws. It was just like how a child swinging a saber would only end up injuring themselves. The Void Catalog’s three volumes guided one’s cultivation realm.

Different cultivators gained different insights. Only by gaining a sufficiently deep understanding could one grasp spatial laws. Those who obtained the Void Catalog’s three volumes but failed to grasp spatial laws only meant one thing—their insights were still too shallow.

In front of a bamboo forest lake.

The white-haired Realm Ancestor was fishing.

“Realm Ancestor.” A voice rang out as a figure walked out from the bamboo forest. He was thin and wore a gray robe. His eyes were as serene as the deep sea as he walked over.

“Hall Lord, why are you here?” Realm Ancestor couldn’t help but smile when he saw the person.

Hall Lord White Avian was one of the two peak existences in the River of Spacetime. He had completely comprehended the laws of spacetime, making him, the leader of White Avian Hall, a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence.

“I wish to seek your advice, Realm Ancestor.” Hall Lord White Avian was very thin. He spoke gently as he sat by the side. “Speak your mind,” said Realm Ancestor with a smile. “I’ll definitely help if I can. However, I might not be able to help when even someone like you is perplexed.” “My Essence Soul is injured,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “I wonder if there’s a solution?”

“Injured? Who can injure you?” Realm Ancestor was alarmed.

Hall Lord White Avian nodded and said, “An Eighth Tribulation Eminence—who has traveled to our River of Spacetime-has a good relationship with me. He took one of my true bodies and left this universe to roam other places… We fought an Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation Eminence, and my Essence Soul was injured. Even my homeworld’s true body suffered injuries.”

“Your true body outside the Universe was injured, yet your other body suffered an Essence Soul injury across an inhabited world?” Realm Ancestor was shocked as he immediately asked, “Can you show me your injuries?”
