Archean Eon Art-Chapter 685 - Looking at the Past and Future

“Sit,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile.

Meng Chuan and Blazing Sun took their seats. There were tables in front of them, ladened with drinks and food.

“To be able to reach such a realm in slightly over 5,000 years, you aren’t much different from me back then,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile. “Senior Realm Ancestor’s judgment is indeed extraordinary. He long identified your potential.”

“Hall Lord, you flatter me. I’m very grateful to Realm Ancestor,” said Meng Chuan. Before he transcended the sixth Heavenly Tribulation, Realm Ancestor had given him an Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation legacy.

“Cultivation is very difficult,” said Azure Dragon with a sigh. “It’s already very impressive for one to reach the Sixth Tribulation realm. As for the Seventh Tribulation realm, there are only 20-odd such people in the River of Spacetime. I have many opportunities and treasures, but I still have my flaws. It’s unknown if I can reach the Seventh Tribulation realm in my life. As for some cultivators, they can leap past the threshold of the Seventh Tribulation realm easily.

“For example, the Lord of Shadows and Origin Realm Chieftain easily cleared the Seventh Tribulation realm threshold at a young age. They have even become top Seventh Tribulation Eminences.”

Azure Dragon looked at Meng Chuan. “Brother Eastcalm, you have only cultivated for slightly over 5,000 years. I estimate that you will easily reach the Seventh Tribulation realm and become White Avian Hall’s first Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence.”

The Seventh Tribulation realm’s threshold was like a chasm. But this threshold was a relaxing and pleasant milestone for some. This made the Eminences struggling at the threshold feel mixed emotions.

“Once Eastcalm takes that step, he will be an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence. Our White Avian Hall will also have an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence.” Hall Lord White Avian was rather expectant. The threat of an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence was much greater than a Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

A Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminence only had one true body in the outer realm. One needed to cultivate, defend, and fight. There were many things they couldn’t do. However, how many people could withstand an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence’s numerous Essence Soul avatars—an immense threat, even when they were unarmed? Just the Essence Soul mystic techniques they had were formidable enough.

Why did Origin Realm dare to fight Six Directions Heaven and White Avian Hall at the same time?

Why was Black Fiend Hall so ferocious?

Why was Realm Ancestor’s status extraordinary?

It was all because of the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm!

As for the young Meng Chuan, he had a deep foundation in his cultivation. His willpower was long sufficient. He had a smooth path ahead of him! Nothing could stop him from becoming an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

“When you reach the Seventh Tribulation realm, White Avian Hall will arrange a Clear Spring Island cave abode for you,” said White Avian with a smile. “As an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, you naturally have to occupy one.”

“Thank you, Hall Lord,” said Meng Chuan.

An Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence was practically entitled to a cave abode on Clear Spring Island. However, those cave abodes had owners! If he wanted to occupy one, he had to force a Seventh Tribulation Eminence to give it up.

According to normal rules, it was normal for a war to break out. However, Hall Lord White Avian had personally promised him that he would handle this matter.

“Due to your cultivation potential,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile, “you now have the authority equivalent to a Librarian. You can read all the books and legacies in White Avian Hall freely.”

“Thank you, Hall Lord.” Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up.

Many legacies in the River of Spacetime could be perused a limited number of times. For example, an Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation legacy would be destroyed after reading it nine times. Therefore, having the right to read the books was very precious.

The three Librarians were Seventh Tribulation Eminences.

Meng Chuan now had similar authority.

“The most precious legacy of White Avian Hall is the original copy of the Immeasurable Universe,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “The other legacy manuals are only at the Eighth Tribulation realm at best. There’s no need for me to remind you. However, the Immeasurable Universe is suspected to be created by an Eternal existence. It starts from the viewpoint of the Immeasurable lineage and describes all the laws in the universe.”

Created by an Eternal existence? Meng Chuan’s heart skipped a beat.

“According to what I know, only Void Catalog and Immeasurable Universe are suspected to be created by Eternal existences. It can be confirmed that the other techniques weren’t created by Eternals,” explained Hall Lord White Avian. “Void Catalog mainly talks about spatial laws. It’s rather easy to understand. However, the Immeasurable Universe is much more complicated. It contains all the laws.”

All the laws? Meng Chuan was secretly alarmed.

“There are records of time, space, all Origins laws, and even a large number of Sixth and Fifth Tribulation laws,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a sigh. “Countless laws form a single entity in this manual, but because it’s too profound, I have to remind you that reading the Immeasurable Universe will either require you to comprehend the Immeasurable law or to have acquired extremely profound insights in time and space. Otherwise, reading it will only bring harm and no benefits.”

Meng Chuan fell into deep thought and asked, “Hall Lord, you said, ‘when one’s insights in time and space reach an extremely profound level.’ What’s considered extremely profound?”

“When there’s only one step left before you grasp the complete time and space laws,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “In more detail, it’s to grasp the spatial law and the past, present, and future for time. Upon reaching this step, you will be able to read Immeasurable Universe.”

Meng Chuan was speechless. Grasping the past, present, future, and the complete spatial law are just the requirements to read the original copy? Compared to that, grasping the Immeasurable law is much easier.

Hall Master Azure Dragon added, “This is because this book originally uses the Immeasurable lineage as a guide. Therefore, cultivators who grasp the Immeasurable law can comprehend it. They have the advantage. Sect Master Mental Demon had that advantage. After reading the Immeasurable Universe, he benefited greatly. With a half-step Seventh Tribulation body, he can match a Seventh Tribulation Eminence.”

Meng Chuan came to a realization.

“This is the best manual in the Immeasurable lineage. It’s also the best manual in the River of Spacetime,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “It’s not suitable to study it before one’s realm reaches a certain level. This is my suggestion. If you want to read it now, I won’t stop you.”

“Thank you for your advice.” Meng Chuan trusted the other party very much.

This was because there were definitely some Seventh Tribulation Eminences that had studied such manuals in history. There were definitely detailed records about it, so Hall Lord White Avian had no need to lie about it.

Unfortunately, Meng Chuan’s current goal was the Chaos Hole law. He was destined not to study the Immeasurable Universe for a long time. However, Meng Chuan was still looking forward to all the other books in White Avian Hall.

Apart from personal cultivation, it was also very important to absorb the seniors’ wisdom.

“I think very highly of you.” Hall Lord White Avian smiled at Meng Chuan. With a wave of his hand, three items flew toward Meng Chuan. “These are the three gifts I prepared for you.”

“Gifts?” Meng Chuan was stunned.

As a faction, White Avian Hall had many internal rules.

The benefits he obtained corresponded with his responsibilities.

Meng Chuan had to make enough contributions to White Avian Hall in order to exchange for the corresponding benefits. Reading all the books and legacies was the Librarian’s authority. It was already very rare for it to be given to him in advance. Yet, he was even given treasures? White Avian Hall didn’t have such rules.

“It’s a personal gift from me,” said Hall Lord White Avian.

Meng Chuan looked ahead.

Three items landed on the table in front of him. On the left was a black book. In the middle was a fist-sized cyan fruit that emitted a fragrance. On the right was a silver cube.

These items? Meng Chuan couldn’t tell how precious any of them were. He didn’t recognize any of them, and he was somewhat hesitant. This was because receiving treasures from others implied the formation of karma.

Seeing Meng Chuan hesitate, Hall Lord White Avian continued, “These three treasures are worth about 20 million cubes. You can’t buy them even if you wanted to.”

Meng Chuan looked at Hall Lord White Avian. Twenty million cubes? The three treasures are already so valuable. On average, each of them might exceed my Spacetime Token. I’ve never seen or heard of them before. How much has Ancestral Master Archean Eon accumulated in his life? Hall Master White Avian is personally giving me such a huge gift?

This was probably comparable to a Seventh Tribulation Eminence’s lifetime wealth. Even if he had enough Outer Realm Essence Crystals, he probably wouldn’t be able to buy these three treasures.

“Do you have the guts to accept it?” Hall Lord White Avian looked at Meng Chuan.

“What do you need me to do?” asked Meng Chuan.

“I’ll tell you when I need you to do it. Don’t worry. I won’t make things difficult for you,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile.

“You won’t make things difficult for me? I’ll accept it!” Meng Chuan knew very well that the better the treasures, the greater the karma. However, since Hall Lord White Avian dared to say that he wouldn’t make things difficult for him, Meng Chuan didn’t hesitate any further.

He immediately waved his hand and put away the three treasures. At the same time, he asked, “Hall Lord, may I know how to use these three treasures?”

“That fruit can be preserved for a long time. At the very least, it has a much longer lifespan than ours. Just eat it directly. It’s best you consume it before you transcend the seventh Heavenly Tribulation. You can study the other two items carefully. You will naturally learn of their usage,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile. “These three treasures are treasures from the Essence Soul lineage. They won’t be of much help to us Physical Body Tribulation Eminences.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. Rare treasures of the Essence Soul lineage?

An hour later, the meeting ended. Meng Chuan bade farewell and left.

“Hall Lord, these are the three treasures you obtained from roaming outside the universe. Are you just giving them to him?” asked Blazing Sun.

Hall Lord White Avian stood high up in the building and watched Meng Chuan leave White Avian Hall. He whispered, “Treasures of the Essence Soul lineage are useless to me.”

“I believe that with this, it will be enough for Origin Realm Chieftain to join White Avian Hall completely,” said Blazing Sun with a frown. The three treasures were worth 20 million cubes. Origin Realm Chieftain probably only had accumulated tens of millions of cubes his entire life. These three treasures were extremely tempting to Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminences.

“In my eyes, Meng Chuan is more important.” Hall Lord White Avian looked into the distance. His eyes could see the future, so he long knew what kind of choice to make.
