Chapter 602 Fiend Mountain

A massive ship—40,000 kilometers longfloated through the outer realm. This ship was Fu Sui’s present cave abode.

These Fifth Tribulation Eminences are really cautious. Fu Sui stood at the top of the massive ancient ship and watched the Fifth Tribulation Eminences gathered on the distant deck. I have to wait for the first batch to come out before the second batch of Fifth Tribulation Eminences are willing to hand over 10,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals.

Although these Fifth Tribulation Eminences were filled with anticipation for the ruin world, they had inculcated great caution from roaming the outer realm.

The 53 Fifth Tribulation Eminences entered in batches.

Each batch was only willing to pay the 10,000 cubes when the batch before them left the ruin world. If they discovered something amiss, they would give up on entering.

I have to be careful. It costs 10,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals. I mustn’t be fooled by Fu Sui. These Fifth Tribulation Eminences came from various river zones. However, most of the members of the Cang Alliance were very familiar with each other. They chatted on the deck.

Huh? The Fifth Tribulation Eminences on the deck looked up. Fu Sui, who was on the highest level of the ancient ship, also looked into the distance.

Black fog condensed, forming a dark-purple-robed man, who looked down coldly.

Huh? The Fifth Tribulation Eminences trembled as they instinctively felt fear.

Boom! An array formation appeared on the ancient boat, isolating the pressure from the outside world.

“Lord Ghostink.”

The Fifth Tribulation Eminences were somewhat stirred. Some Fifth Tribulation Eminences even took the initiative to bow. “Greetings, Lord Ghostink.”

There were a total of eight Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the Cang Alliance. Lord Ghostink was one of them.

Apart from Patriarch Fire Dragon and Lady of Icesoul, who were relatively easy to come into contact with, the other six couldn’t be bothered with Fifth Tribulation Eminences. Lord Ghostink usually couldn’t be bothered to look at these Fifth Tribulation Eminences. Furthermore, in terms of reputation... Lord Ghostink had the worst reputation among the eight Sixth Tribulation Eminences. This was because he was ruthless and unscrupulous. It was said that the higher one’s status was, the more they cared about their reputation. However, Lord Ghostink was one of the rare few who didn’t care about their reputation. “Lord Ghostink.” Fu Sui also appeared. He flew to the edge of the ancient ship’s array formation. With the array formation, he had the confidence to deal with Lord Ghostink.

“Fu Sui?” The purple-robed Lord Ghostink looked at Fu Sui. He could sense that Fu Sui had yet to raise his natural order in life. Fu Sui’s body was clearly still at the Fifth Tribulation realm. It posed zero threat to Lord Ghostink.

Even if their cultivation realms were equal, Lord Ghostink’s body was much stronger than that of Fu Sui. Fu Sui would definitely lose in a head-on battle.

If Fu Sui created a physical body cultivation formulation and raised his body to the Sixth Tribulation realm, Lord Ghostink’s attitude would have changed.

“Fu Sui,” said Lord Ghostink coldly, “is what you’ve been publicly spreading in the Cang Alliance true?”

“I naturally wouldn’t dare lie to the entire Cang Alliance,” said Fu Sui with a smile.

He had also mentioned that one’s Essence Soul would be injured when taking the path of epiphany, and that one’s injuries would be more severe, the further one went. He hadn’t lied, but he hadn’t gone into detail of the path’s danger.

“Sixth Tribulation Eminences can’t enter?” Lord Ghostink looked at Fu Sui.

“When I open the ruin world, I can only bring Fifth Tribulation Eminences in,” said Fu Sui with a humble smile. “If you don’t believe me, Lord Ghostink, I can try bringing you along next time. You will sense the rejection from the ruin.”

Lord Ghostink frowned slightly before saying, “Alright, bring me in next time.”

Fu Sui was stunned. Lord Ghostink really wants to enter? Fu Sui couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Ghostink, you don’t believe me?”

“Give it a try,” said Lord Ghostink indifferently. Fu Sui felt somewhat aggrieved.

An attempt meant he would bring one fewer Fifth Tribulation Eminence during that expedition.

“The next entry time might be 30 years later,” said Fu Sui with a smile. “Lord Ghostink, if you are willing, I’ll bring you in when the time comes. You will know that I’m not lying.”

“Alright.” Lord Ghostink waved his hand and released a black palace. He then entered the palace to wait.

Fu Sui glanced at the distant palace before turning to look at the group of Fifth Tribulation Eminences. He said coldly, “As you have heard, Lord Ghostink wants to give it a try. Therefore, I can only bring seven people in with me during the next batch.” With that said, Fu Sui flew away.

The Black Mountain ruin world attracted more and more attention from the outside world. Even so, Meng Chuan continued to advance through the ruin world slowly.

In the blink of an eye, three years passed.

New cultivators. Meng Chuan could clearly see cultivators moving along the first path far away. They had reached the height where Meng Chuan was.

City Lord Eastcalm?

He has been here for 33 years, right? That’s how high he has climbed?

The third path is indeed difficult.

Four Cang Alliance cultivators were on the first path. They were very close to each other, and they also noticed Meng Chuan on the third

path.

They had been walking for three years while Meng Chuan had been on his path for 33 years. Yet, they had reached the same altitude.

This path of epiphany is indeed magical. The four cultivators could sense their huge gains after three years of epiphanies.

However, one of the five Tribulation Eminences—who had six arms and one eyestopped in his tracks. He jolted awake and looked in Meng Chuan’s direction with lingering fear. I’ve been here for three years. I originally decided to leave immediately after mastering three Fifth Tribulation laws, but the feeling of being in a state of epiphany was too wonderful. I unknowingly walked another year. Thankfully, I saw Eastcalm today.

It was indeed wonderful to be immersed in a state of epiphany. He didn’t want to stop.

Upon seeing Meng Chuan, he thought of Fu Sui, Meng Hu, and Black Wind. Only then did the six-armed, one-eyed cultivator completely calm down. It’s time to leave. My goal was to grasp three Fifth Tribulation laws. I should have returned a year ago. The six-armed, one-eyed cultivator had already grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws before entering the ruin world. He wanted to leave after taking a step forward. This would mitigate any potential disaster.

However, his mind was filled with excitement and zeal after being immersed in a constant state of epiphany, greatly reducing his cautiousness.

This path is a little sinister. The six-armed, one-eyed cultivator looked at the path beneath his feet and immediately stopped thinking. He destroyed his body and Essence Soul.

He gave up after three years?

Fu Sui took this path for 15 years.

The other cultivators continued walking.

Meng Chuan saw everything clearly from the third path. He saw the six-armed, one-eyed cultivator self-destruct and leave.

“His name is Wu Ao, right?” Meng Chuan had information on the Cang Alliance members. “He gave up after walking about 5,000 kilometers on the first path?”

Meng Chuan stopped thinking about it and continued advancing slowly. However, the pressure gradually became stronger and stronger. The further he walked, the clearer he could hear the sounds. However, his willpower had yet to transform.

Meng Chuan knew very well that the first five transformations happened in the second, fifth, tenth, eighteenth, and twenty-ninth year, respectively. The next transformation might happen decades later... The next transformation might take decades, but I’m about to reach my limit. Every step Meng Chuan took was very difficult. I can sense that I can only walk for a few more months.

Every word that echoed in his mind caused his Essence Soul to tremble. Meng Chuan tried his best to perfect his will. This was what cultivation was like.

Even if he found the correct method, he would have to suffer the torment of time. He needed time to accumulate strength slowly and become stronger. This torturous process was actually very difficult. This was because sometimes one’s path might be wrong, meaning that enduring the period of torture was in vain.

The first five transformations made Meng Chuan realize that this path was the correct one for him. He naturally seized the opportunity to persevere.

One step... One more step... As he walked slowly, Meng Chuan’s pace became slower and slower. It became harder and harder for him to resist the aural syllables.

Boom!

When Meng Chuan took another step, a voice echoed in his mind

“Having walked the path of the mind for 5,000 kilometers, you may become an ordinary member of my Fiend Mountain.”

At the same time, information on a mystic technique entered his mind.

With this mystic technique, one could freely enter and exit the Fiend Mountain ruin world.

There are nine entrances and exits to the Fiend Mountain ruin world? They are separately located in nine river zones? Meng Chuan was very shocked. One ruin is connected to nine river zones. The creator of this ruin world clearly had inconceivable accomplishments in spacetime. At the very least, Ancestral Master Archean Eon was far from capable of such a feat. It looks like the creator of Fiend Mountain is an Eighth Tribulation Eminence at least. The creator might even be stronger?

Meng Chuan had guessed that there would be great benefits if he could reach the end of the third path. From the looks of it, traveling 5,000 kilometers on the third path resulted in a benefit. He could now freely enter and exit the ruin.

If I travel further on this third path, I might gain some more benefits. However, the creator of this ruin world named it Fiend Mountain? Meng Chuan was somewhat puzzled.

God was a relatively positive word. Fiend was considered negative.

It’s fine if the outside world called it Fiend Mountain, but the creator themself called it Fiend Mountain? This gave Meng Chuan many ideas.

Let’s continue. After some thought, Meng Chuan continued walking. As expected, Meng Chuan felt his Essence Soul rumble in his sea of consciousness after walking for three more months. It was very difficult for him to remain lucid due to the aural attack, much less advance.

Whoosh. After retreating three steps, the pressure rapidly decreased. I’ve reached my limit. It’s time for me to give up for now. Meng Chuan looked at the mountain path that continued high into the clouds. I’ll give it another try when my mental cultivation has clearly improved. Thankfully, I can enter and exit the ruin world freely now.

Meng Chuan was very glad.

Before I leave... Meng Chuan turned to look at the vast Fiend Mountain range. I have to explore this mountain range and obtain some benefits.

Swoosh!

Meng Chuan followed the third path and quickly flew down the mountain. In contrast to the difficulty of climbing the mountain, going down was quick. He took 33 years to cover 5,000 kilometers, but he descended the mountain in the blink of an eye.
