Archean Eon Art

Chapter 549 Extended Longevity

Meng Chuan was rather pleasantly surprised.

I never expected that my close-combat strength would reach the Fifth Tribulation realm’s threshold after cultivating Infinite Saber to the Heaven Earth realm’s late stage. However, Meng Chuan understood why he achieved this feat after some thought.

On the one hand, Infinite Saber at the Heaven Earth realm’s middle stage was already considered to be as strong as a Fourth Tribulation-level technique. Once it reached the late stage, it was not far from a Fifth Tribulation-level technique. On the other hand, his body was especially powerful after he devoured Primordial Stones. Only by using his powerful body and saber art together could he reach the Fifth Tribulation realm’s threshold.

“In the past, you could only choose treasures that cost less than 50,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals in total,” said the white-robed elder with a smile. “Now, your upper limit is 300,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. “Okay.” Even when faced with 300,000 cubes worth of treasures, he could now face the situation calmly. Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s gift had indeed saved Meng Chuan the trouble of gathering treasures.

However, his quota of 300,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals was the limit after attaining Fifth Tribulation realm strength. Furthermore, he had already chosen treasures like the Spacetime Teleportation Talisman for his son. He had also taken a few Primordial Stones and cultivated a World Treasure. He had spent quite a bit of his quota.

I can reach the Fifth Tribulation realm in a short period of time, but it will take me a lot of effort and time to reach the Sixth Tribulation realm. Meng Chuan understood this.

In the River of Spacetime’s history, the monstrous geniuses that could create Imperial Lord-level paramount techniques had reached the Fifth Tribulation in a short period of time. However, they had to put in plenty of effort to reach the Sixth Tribulation Realm. The Sixth Tribulation realm was usually the limit for these monstrous geniuses. Meng Chuan’s cultivation resources were the treasures he could obtain with his 300,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals quota. He had to use his resources carefully so that he could advance to the Sixth Tribulation realm in the future.

After all, it was almost impossible for Meng Chuan to obtain such immense wealth without Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s gifts for his juniors.

Treasure ruins? Even if a Seventh Tribulation Eminence failed a tribulation, they would be able to return to their homeworld instantly and make arrangements before they died.

Only a Fifth Tribulation Eminence like Senior Pang Ming, who traveled a little slower, couldn’t rush back in time before they died! That was why his cave abode drifted through the outer realm.

Therefore, the better the lost treasure, the lower the chances of obtaining it. It was too difficult to soar in a single step.

Even Tribulation Eminences that came from high-level worlds had limited wealth. This was because the treasures left behind by Eighth Tribulation Eminences in high-level worlds were similarly limited. They could only obtain a set amount. The rules for obtaining these treasures were even stricter than Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s. This was because there were many more cultivators in high-level worlds than in middle-level worlds. Thus, these treasures had to be conserved.

Meng Chuan’s quota of 300,000 cubes was a huge sum... With this amount of Outer Realm Essence Crystals, one could just buy anything they needed for the body cultivation and World Treasures without any regard for the price. They could also buy many life-preservation items and cultivation supplements.

But 300,000 wasn’t that much either. For example, the lowest price of an Eighth Tribulation treasure was 150,000 cubes. Furthermore, they couldn’t be bought. Many Sixth Tribulation Eminences couldn’t find a single one their entire lives.

There were also other very expensive treasures. Small Universe was priced at 500,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals. It was one of the top five treasures in Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasure vault. It made even Seventh Tribulation Eminences envious. Meng Chuan could see it, but he couldn’t afford it either.

Following that, Meng Chuan tried attacking the pillar again, but with his Essence Soul realm strength this time. The white-robed elder determined that his Essence Soul’s strength was still at the Fourth Tribulation realm.

It was clear that reaching the Fifth Tribulation realm’s threshold in close combat had something to do with his powerful body.

In a place like Jiang State Capital, it was very difficult to encounter a snowstorm. The number of snow days a year typically didn’t last more than half a month.

Today, it was snowing heavily.

Snowflakes fluttered across the world like down feathers.

Meng Manor.

In a corridor, Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai were lying on a reclining chair. They were covered in a blanket. Beside them was a stove that warmed the alcohol flask.

The two old men drank and chatted leisurely.

Bai Nianyun was leisurely reading on Meng Dajiang’s other side. “Jiang State Capital’s population is increasing,” said Liu Yebai. “The food supply has become a little tight. The streets and carriages are becoming more and more crowded. In the early days, Jiang State Capital never thought of accommodating 30 million people. The Imperial Court has to manage this.”

“It’s indeed very crowded. I’d rather fly when I’m out,” said Meng Dajiang. “I can’t even be bothered to walk with the crowds.”

“Do you think everyone has an avian demon servant like you?” said Liu Yebai. “When Earth Net Godfiends go out to do business, they use their movement techniques to walk across the roofs and treetops.”

Meng Dajiang nodded. “There are too many people. More and more people are using carriages.”

“Jiang State Capital is so big. Without using a carriage, it will take an entire day to go from the eastern city gate to the western city gate on foot,” said Bai Nianyun casually. “Of course a carriage is needed. Sitting in a carriage is much more comfortable and much faster.”

Meng Chuan walked over from afar. He smiled when he heard his parents and father-in-law chatting.

Jiang State Capital had many people, and there were even more people in the countryside outside the city! The war had ended for many years, and the population boomed! The cities were beginning to reach the food supply limit. Many prefecture cities and county cities were being rebuilt.

“Meng Chuan is here.” Liu Yebai’s eyes were pretty good as he noticed Meng Chuan at a glance.

“Father-in-law.” Meng Chuan walked over with a smile. “Dad, Mom.”

“Did you hear what Uncle Liu said?” asked Meng Dajiang

“It’s mainly because large cities are more suitable for children to attend the Dao Academies and cultivate. It’s also more suitable for doing business, so there are many more people,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “Prefecture and county cities in the world are now being rebuilt. Living in large cities is not easy. Quite a bit of the world’s population will naturally migrate to the prefecture and county cities.”

With a Tribulation Eminence like Meng Chuan presiding over the entire Archean Eon Realm, civil wars wouldn’t happen. In history, when there were no external enemies, the war between sects and dynasties would continue. However, the world was peaceful now. With Meng Chuan alive, how could anyone from Two World Island and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven dare to cause trouble?

Archean Eon Realm was destined to welcome another era of prosperity.

The world’s population would reach a peak, and the number of Godfiends would be the highest. However, Meng Chuan alone could easily supply the resources needed to nurture Godfiends.

“That’s right. There are countless county cities and prefecture cities,” said Meng Dajiang with a smile. “The entire human world will slowly recover to how it had been when I was young.” “It will be much better than when you were young,” said Liu Yebai. “Now, there’s no need to hide in a fort. The villages are all over the world. There will be a lot more people.” “Yes, countless villages.” Meng Dajiang nodded. “There are countless villages everywhere in the world. Originally, I could only see such a description in history books, but now we can see it. We really are living in an era of great change.”

Liu Yebai nodded slightly. “Yes, we’ve seen enough big changes in our lives.”

As the two old friends chatted, Meng Chuan listened from the side. Bai Nianyun read a book and accompanied them. Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! The smell of alcohol wafted out of the alcohol flask and diffused through the air. Snowflakes fluttered in the outside world. Some drifted into the corridor and onto their bodies.

Meng Chuan accompanied them until they finished drinking. The snow stopped.

“Dad, Father-in-law,” said Meng Chuan, “All of you know about the Millennium Instant mystic technique, right?”

Meng Dajiang, Liu Yebai, and Bai Nianyun turned to look at him. As his elders, they naturally knew that Liu Qiyue had entered a slumber.

Liu Yebai nodded. “Qiyue is currently slumbering.”

“I hope that Dad and Father-in-law can enter a deep slumber as well,” said Meng Chuan.

“Us?” said Liu Yeba in surprise. “I remember you saying that one has to be a Regis Godfiend to enter the slumber at the very least. Otherwise, one won’t have the right to enter Millennium Hall.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. “That’s true. In fact, Archean Mountain taught the Millennium Instant mystic technique to Two World Island and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven. I have also learned this mystic technique. This mystic technique is an array formation. It’s not difficult to set it up.”

Even Two World Island and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven could set it up. With Meng Chuan’s skill in the void lineage, it was naturally very easy for him to set up the array formation needed for the Millennium Instant mystic technique.

“I will personally set up the Millennium Instant mystic technique’s array formation in my mobile grotto-heaven and build a sleeping palace,” said Meng Chuan. “I’ll let Dad and Father-in-law enter a slumber first.”

“I don’t have any regrets in my life. What’s the point of sleeping for 1,000 years?” Meng Dajiang chuckled.

Meng Chuan looked at the two elders and said solemnly, “I’m confident that I can obtain a longevity extension treasure. Father, Father-in-law, it’s not difficult for me to extend your lifespan by 1,000 years.” “Extending our lifespan by 1,000 years?” Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai sat up straight.
