Chapter 711 - Dispute

Chapter 711: Dispute

In a hall in Nebula Palace, White Avian Hall’s territory.

“Eastcalm, take a seat.” The gray-robed, skinny Hall Lord White Avian sat in the main seat of honor.

Meng Chuan sat down as well.

There were a total of five Eminences in the hall. Apart from Meng Chuan, there were Hall Lord White Avian, Lord of Shadowfiend, Deputy Hall Lord Blazing Sun, and Deputy Hall Lord Azure Dragon. Although White Avian Hall still had other Seventh Tribulation Eminences and half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences, these four formed White Avian Hall’s core.

They were planning to include Meng Chuan. This was because Meng Chuan hadn’t established any factions. He was also an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, so he could be of great use.

Lord of the East Abyss, Palace Lord Food God, Lord of Shadows, Sect Master Mental Demon, and Mountain Lord Moxie each had their own factions! Their relationship with White Avian Hall was more of a cooperative one.

“Congratulations, Eastcalm, on transcending the Heavenly Tribulation,” said Hall Lord White Avian with a smile. “From now on, what lays ahead remains vast. There’s no need to worry about the Heavenly Tribulation for a long time.”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan smiled as well. “Ever since I became a Tribulation Eminence, the repeated Heavenly Tribulations have made me rather nervous. I can relax now; I probably won’t be able to see my eighth Essence Soul Tribulation before I die.”

“Don’t underestimate yourself,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “Eighth Tribulation Eminences also cultivate from the Seventh Tribulation realm. If seniors can succeed, why can’t we? Cultivation requires great determination. If one doesn’t even have determination, there’s no hope of them reaching the Eighth Tribulation realm.”

“Hall Lord is right,” said Meng Chuan immediately, but he muttered inwardly.

I’m just being humble. I can’t just claim that I will reach the Eighth Tribulation realm, right?

Furthermore, according to what he knew, it was indeed extremely difficult to reach the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm. The first obstacle was grasping the laws of space and time to reach the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm. There were no half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences in many eras.

It was actually very rare for two half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences to exist in this era. It wasn’t easy to clear the first obstacle.

The second trial was one’s willpower! If one’s willpower was strong enough, their Essence Soul World could withstand the laws of spacetime’s evolution. This was extremely difficult. According to the intelligence, it was much harder than cultivating a Physical Body Eighth Tribulation realm body.

The third trial was to transcend the tribulation. There was no intelligence on the eighth Essence Soul Tribulation.

When Meng Chuan said that it would probably be very difficult for him to see the eighth Essence Soul Tribulation before his death, he was, on the one hand, being humble. On the other hand, he wanted to see the eighth Heavenly Tribulation. This meant that he had passed the first two stages—his Essence Soul World could withstand the evolution of the spacetime laws.

After passing the first two trials, apart from not transcending the final tribulation, one’s true strength was already at the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm!

Why do I feel like Hall Lord values my cultivation more than me?

“Eastcalm,” said Lord of Shadowfiend. “You are still young; you have only cultivated for 7,000 years. You can completely become a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence in 20,000 to 30,000 years like Hall Lord. After that, you can attempt to reach the Eighth Tribulation realm.”

Meng Chuan smiled.

Hall Lord’s cultivation speed is very terrifying. Strictly speaking, can I reach the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm before 30,000 years?

“Let’s talk business,” said Hall Lord White Avian as he looked at Blazing Sun.

Blazing Sun nodded slightly and said, “Now that Eastcalm has reached the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm, he can take up more resources.”

Take up resources?

Meng Chuan’s heart stirred. He knew that almost all the precious resources in the River of Spacetime had been monopolized by Seventh Tribulation Eminences! The reason why Sixth Tribulation Eminences submitted to Seventh Tribulation Eminences was that they hoped to gain some of the leftover benefits from Seventh Tribulation Eminences.

I have to take up some resources! These could become Archean Eon Realm’s heritage in the future.

Whoosh.

Blazing Sun waved his hand, and a Spacetime Dominion Map appeared in front of him. Many areas in the Spacetime Dominion Map shimmered.

“All the resources that are relatively easy to obtain in the River of Spacetime have now been taken.” Deputy Hall Lord Blazing Sun pointed at a branch of the River of Spacetime. “For example, the most famous Star Sand River.

“Star Sand is the best material for refining Tribulation Charms. Occupying Star Sand River and trading Star Sand is an easy business. Now, more than 80% of Star Sand River is occupied by Palace Lord Snow Rainbow and Court Lord Yellow Shirt. The two of them fight perennially.”

“Do the other Seventh Tribulation Eminences not vie for it?” asked Meng Chuan.

“In terms of background and backing, Peach Mountain’s owner is the strongest in the entire River of Spacetime,” said Blazing Sun. “After that, it’s Palace Lord Snow Rainbow and Court Lord Yellow Shirt. Peach Mountain’s owner occupies Peach Mountain, so no one dares to spy on him. Palace Lord Snow Rainbow and Court Lord Yellow Shirt mainly occupy Star Sand River… Since Star Sand River is too large, they only occupy 80% of it.”

“What background and backer does he have?” The information that Meng Chuan had previously obtained was vague.

“The intelligence I previously gave you was very detailed,” said Hall Lord White Avian, “but I didn’t elaborate on it; it’s regarding an Eighth Tribulation Eminence. I didn’t want to distract you before you transcended the tribulation.”

Eighth Tribulation realm?

Meng Chuan’s heart stirred.

“Ever since the universe was born, dozens of Eighth Tribulation Eminences have been born in the River of Spacetime,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “Although some of them are already difficult to investigate, and even their intelligence is completely hidden, some Eighth Tribulation Eminences have proactively left behind their factions. For example, Eternal Tower, Nebula Palace, Black Fiend Hall, and so on. Many of the traces left behind by these Eighth Tribulation Eminences leave a profound impact on our River of Spacetime.”

Azure Dragon said, “The reason why Peach Mountain’s owner is said to have a strong backer is because he has cracked a difficult problem that Dragon Ancestor was troubled with. The Ancestor was rather delighted and permitted him three requests of his aid.”

“Even if our dragons’ Sixth Tribulation Eminences and half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences die in battle, the Ancestor won’t care. Only Seventh Tribulation dragons can obtain some favoritism.” Azure Dragon sighed. “Instead, it’s an outsider that managed to get the Ancestor to take action three times.”

Meng Chuan understood.

Why was no one willing to offend Peach Mountain’s owner? If Peach Mountain’s owner invited Dragon Ancestor to appear in this era, who could stop him?

“The owner of Peach Mountain only occupies Peach Mountain, a treasure land in the universe. He calls himself Peach Mountain Owner. He cultivates in seclusion and doesn’t interfere in any matters. He has never asked my Ancestor for help.” Azure Dragon thought somewhat highly of him. “He could’ve obtained more, but he was satisfied after occupying Peach Mountain.”

“Peach Mountain Owner, Palace Lord Snow Rainbow, and Court Lord Yellow Shirt all have Eighth Tribulation Eminences backing them. The Eighth Tribulation Eminence behind Court Lord Yellow Shirt is from another universe,” said Hall Lord White Avian. “Perhaps very few Seventh Tribulation Eminences have seen an Eighth Tribulation Eminence before, but it’s very difficult for them to get an Eighth Tribulation Eminence to help. Most Seventh Tribulation Eminences… have never seen an Eighth Tribulation Eminence before.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

Ancestral Master Archean Eon had only seen an Eighth Tribulation Eminence once in his life.

“There are many treasure lands in the River of Spacetime. Apart from Star Sand River and Peach Mountain having no disputes, most of the other places are in dispute.” Deputy Hall Lord Blazing Sun pointed at the spots where the Spacetime Dominion Map shimmered. “Seventh Tribulation Eminences and half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences are involved. Some have at least two or three fighting for it, up to as many as ten parties.”

Meng Chuan looked at the map carefully.

Light flashed on the Spacetime Dominion Map. Upon closer inspection, he could sense a large amount of information.

In the past, he only knew about how often Seventh Tribulation Eminences fought for resources. Only today did he truly understand the details.

Meng Chuan could vaguely tell that White Avian Hall and Six Directions Heaven were the two largest factions. They infiltrated everywhere, and both sides collectively occupied more than half of the resources. The other Seventh Tribulation Eminences and half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences each occupied many areas.

“Take a closer look,” said Blazing Sun. “Eastcalm, you are an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence. You should occupy a treasure land that matches your strength. By the way, Realm Ancestor said that he would give you a treasure land once you reached the Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation realm.”

“Realm Ancestor’s gift?” Meng Chuan was astonished.

“Instead of calling it a gift, the occupation will still depend on you,” said Blazing Sun. “Realm Ancestor is old. Over the past few years, he has been trying to transfer the treasures he occupied to his good friends. However, Hall Master Nightmare from Black Fiend Hall isn’t convinced. He took action and forcefully snatched it, causing Realm Ancestor to fight him. Many Seventh Tribulation Eminences were involved in this. Realm Ancestor’s Essence Soul avatars occupy too many resources, so many people covet them.”
