Chapter 628: 628

A figure appeared in the dark outer realm . He was dressed in a dark purple robe as he looked coldly at Thousand Mountain Star .

“Thousand Mountain Star,” muttered Lord Ghostink .

He yearned to enter the legendary Fiend Mountain even in his dreams . Therefore, he immediately rushed to Thousand Mountain Star when he heard the news .

Is it really as the rumors say? Eastcalm entered the Fiend Mountain despite being a Sixth Tribulation Eminence? Lord Ghostink couldn’t help but feel tempted . If he can enter, I should be able to enter as well!

After cultivating to his current realm, he felt like the gap between the Sixth and Seventh Tribulation realm was like a chasm! The further he cultivated, the greater the difference in strength . However, the difficulty of breaking through also increased .

There were only a few Sixth Tribulation Eminences in a vast river zone . However, Seventh Tribulation Eminences were legends!

Lord Ghostink had his own goals . He also wanted to reach the Seventh Tribulation realm .

Whoosh .

Lord Ghostink flew towards Thousand Mountain Star but suddenly stopped .

Lightning gathered in the surrounding void and condensed into a white-haired, white-robed man . He smiled at Lord Ghostink and said, “Ah, Lord Ghostink . My Three Bay River System is a remote river system . Why are you here, Lord Ghostink?”

Meng Chuan’s lightning law domain was sufficiently vast . He could sense any other living beings that invaded his range of influence .

It was fine if it were ordinary cultivators in the past, but Lord Ghostink was a Sixth Tribulation Eminence . Meng Chuan was naturally alarmed by his visit . He immediately sent an Essence Soul embodiment .

“City Lord Eastcalm . ” Lord Ghostink looked at Meng Chuan . His cold eyes lit up as he revealed a look of delight . “You really have reached the Sixth Tribulation realm . ”

Meng Chuan looked at him .

Lord Ghostink didn’t have a good reputation . He was ruthless and unscrupulous . He had the worst reputation among the Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the Cang Alliance . Meng Chuan naturally had his guard up .

“City Lord Eastcalm, you have reached the Sixth Tribulation realm . How did you enter the black mountain ruin again?” asked Lord Ghostink .

Meng Chuan nodded . “Yes . ”

He really is here because of Fiend Mountain .

“How did you enter? I asked Fu Sui, but he said it had nothing to do with him . He said that you entered the black mountain ruin through your own means . ” Lord Ghostink’s voice had a hint of anxiousness .

“I can enter, but I can’t help others,” said Meng Chuan directly, having guessed the other party’s intentions .

Lord Ghostink frowned and asked, “City Lord Eastcalm, I just want to ask you . How did you enter? Do you have a mystic technique, a token, or something else?”

“Why should I tell you such a secret?” Meng Chuan looked at him .

Information was valuable . Meng Chuan hadn’t even discovered the existence of Fiend Mountain from Eternal Tower’s intelligence .

The intelligence of how to become an ordinary member of Fiend Mountain was even more precious . How could he easily leak it? Lord Ghostink persuaded, “Tell me, and I will owe you a favor . We are both members of the Cang Alliance . Can’t you help me on this?” “I can’t,” said Meng Chuan indifferently .

Lord Ghostink looked at Meng Chuan and nodded . “It wasn’t right of me . Let’s negotiate like it’s a transaction . How about 30,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals if you tell me how you entered the black mountain ruin?”

“No deal,” rejected Meng Chuan . Meng Chuan had yet to figure out Fiend Mountain’s origins .

The crazy forbidden creatures, the various aftereffects of stepping onto Fiend Mountain, and the mysterious voice that came from the mountaintop… Even the name of the placeFiend Mountain-made Meng Chuan very cautious . Logically speaking, such a place shouldn’t be unknown! However, even if he couldn’t find any information on it, Meng Chuan naturally didn’t want to spread further information about it .

“Even a transaction won’t do?” Lord Ghostink’s eyes were cold .

Meng Chuan looked at him and said, “If you really want to buy the information, I’ll naturally be the one offering a price . 200,000 cubes, and I’ll tell you the details . ”

“Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!” Lord Ghostink laughed angrily .

200,000 cubes?

After cultivating for so many years, he had only accumulated over 500,000 cubes . Many of them were treasures that were useful to him . Was he crazy to exchange nearly half of that for a piece of information?

“You should have just reached the Sixth Tribulation realm, so you aren’t aware . ” Lord Ghostink looked at him . “I’m currently following a Seventh Tribulation Eminence, Qilin Ancestor . I’ll give you another chance . Thirty thousand cubes to purchase your information . ”

“Lord Ghostink, forgive me for not entertaining you . Also, I do not allow any Sixth Tribulation Eminences to come within 15 million kilometers of my Thousand Mountain Star array formation without my permission . ” With that said, Meng Chuan’s figure dissipated . He couldn’t be bothered with him .

Lord Ghostink had even threatened him .

Meng Chuan came from Archean Eon Realm . Ancestral Master Archean Eon had recorded some of the unspoken rules regarding the top factions in the River of Spacetime . Meng Chuan knew them pretty well .

It was true that many Sixth Tribulation Eminences had Seventh Tribulation backing them . Although there were relatively more Sixth Tribulation Eminences than Seventh Tribulation Eminences in the River of Spacetime, there were very few of the latter . There were only 20 to 30 of them! Therefore, every Seventh Tribulation Eminence was considered a faction .

Most Sixth Tribulation Eminences relied on a faction . With a Seventh Tribulation Eminence backing them, it was as though an entire faction was taking care of them . Thus, they could do things in a much smoother way . They could also obtain various benefits for their cultivation .

To a Seventh Tribulation Eminence, a Sixth Tribulation Eminence subordinate was a very important helper .

From Lord Ghostink’s point of view, City Lord Eastcalm-a newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence—shouldn’t have fully followed a Seventh Tribulation Eminence . Without a powerful backer, he shouldn’t be confident enough, so it was easy to scare him into submission .

According to Ancestral Master Archean Eon, although Eternal Tower is a loose and free organization, there are still very few Sixth Tribulation Eminences . Eternal Tower still cares about the safety of every Sixth Tribulation Eminence . Meng Chuan understood this point .

Once he transcended the tribulation, he would naturally report it to Eternal Tower . His status in Eternal Tower would rise, and he would become part of Eternal Tower’s backbone . Eternal Tower had to confirm that he had successfully transcended the tribulation before promoting him .

He’s gone? Lord Ghostink was alarmed . City Lord Eastcalm has just vanished and left me here? He was a Sixth Tribulation Eminence . Good, very good . Lord Ghostink stared at Thousand Mountain Star in the distance .

No matter how rash he was, he wouldn’t charge into the enemy’s lair to attack him . The enemy’s lair had an array formation augmenting him . He would be sending himself to his death if he acted rashly .

I’ll remember you for this . Lord Ghostink was furious, but there was nothing he could do . With a wave of his sleeve, he immediately stepped into the River of Spacetime and left Three Bay River System .

Knowing Lord Ghostink’s style, one had to fall out with him immediately . If one spoke nicely to him, only more trouble would ensue .

In front of a lake in a bamboo forest .

A white-haired elder sat there fishing .

The lake beneath the hook vaguely revealed different spacetime . Images of cultivators appeared in the lake, but none of them were worth fishing

Whoosh .

A cyan-clothed woman flew over from afar . After landing, she walked over and stopped dozens of feet away . She greeted respectfully, “Realm Ancestor . ”

Realm Ancestors were terrifying existences that were famous across the River of Spacetime .

“Ah, Yu Xi . ” The white-haired elder smiled at the cyan-clothed woman .

The cyan-clothed woman sighed .

Realm Ancestor treated her like a father and master . In her eyes, he was the greatest existence . However, he was close to the end of his lifespan .

There were only three Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminences in the River of Spacetime . Realm Ancestor was one of them, but even he couldn’t withstand the ravages of time . He could only accept the fact that his lifespan was coming to an end .

“Realm Ancestor, everything you instructed me to do has been done,” said the cyan-clothed woman respectfully . “However, Third Young Master still refuses to listen to advice . Therefore, I can only forcefully capture him back . ”

“I’ve protected him for tens of thousands of years, but I can’t protect him forever . ” The white-haired elder nodded . “Once I die, all sorts of backlashes will happen . ”

“Realm Ancestor, you will definitely break through to the Eighth Tribulation realm,” said the cyan-clothed woman immediately .

“Eighth Tribulation realm?” The white-haired elder smiled as he looked at the cyan-clothed woman . The masses had rumors that Realm Ancestor was close to the Eighth Tribulation realm, but he knew that he was still far from it! He casually waved his hand . “Alright, you may take your leave . ”

“Yes . ” The cyan-clothed woman obediently retreated .

The white-haired elder sat there, still leisurely fishing . Countless spacetime figures were in the lake .

“According to the latest intelligence from the Cang Alliance, a Sixth Tribulation Eminence has entered Fiend Mountain?” The white-haired elder was somewhat surprised . He had entered the Cang Alliance when he was young and was the only Seventh Tribulation Eminence in the Cang Alliance now .

The Cang Alliance was an extremely loose organization . However, it had a Seventh Tribulation Eminence . Therefore, it was rather famous in the River of Spacetime .

Realm Ancestor was very powerful . He had control over a portion of the Cang Alliance Space . The Cang Alliance Space would take the initiative to record everything that happened in the Cang Alliance Space and pass it on to Realm Ancestor .

City Lord Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, has become a member of Fiend Mountain? The white-haired elder guessed . The fishing rod in his hand connected to an area of spacetime .

In the lake, Thousand Mountain Star’s Meng Chuan, Archean Eon Realm’s Meng Chuan, and Fiend Mountain’s Meng Chuan appeared .

He’s also a member of the Cang Alliance like me . The white-haired elder gently lifted the fishing pole .

Whoosh .

A white-haired, white-robed man flew out of the lake and landed on the ground .

Meng Chuan looked around in a daze and saw a white-haired elder holding a fishing pole . The white-haired elder looked ordinary, like a mortal elder, as he smiled at him .
