Chapter 609 Meng An’s Years

Meng Chuan looked at his son and asked, “What happened?”.

If he doesn’t feel safe despite returning to his homeworld, to the point of wanting to hide in Heaven and Earth Great Hall... Did An’er provoke a powerful enemy?

“Dad.” Meng An looked at his father, his eyes filled with fatigue. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

“Sit down and talk slowly.” Meng Chuan sat down. Heaven and Earth Great Hall occupied an extremely large area. There were many halls and chambers. Meng Chuan and his son were in the outermost hall. Through the window, they could see the outside world.

Meng An sat down and looked at the scenery outside the window. His mind went adrift.

“An’er?” Meng Chuan asked again.

Meng An snapped out of his daze. “Dad, as you know, I left my homeworld according to Master’s arrangements and headed to a mystic realm.”

Meng Chuan nodded. “Yes.”

“That mystic realm is called Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. This mystic realm is very beneficial to one’s cultivation. After Master discovered it, he was intrigued. He used every available means to leave this mystic realm to Archean Eon Realm’s descendants,” said Meng An. “After I arrived at Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, I had the best cultivation conditions due to Master’s arrangements. My cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. Furthermore, I found my wife—who I had been separated from for many years.”

“A wife who you had been separated from for many years? When did you get married?” Meng Chuan was puzzled.

Meng An explained, “Dad, the Nine Lifetime Samsara Heart Tempering I experienced when I was young is one of the greatest opportunities in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. With Master’s rare treasure, I can enter the Nine Lifetime Samsara Heart Tempering anywhere in the River of Spacetime.”

Meng Chuan’s heart stirred when he heard that. This reminded him of the Cang Alliance Space. He could enter the Cang Alliance Space with a thought no matter where he was. “My wife also experienced the Nine Lifetime Samsara Heart Tempering back then. We made a life-and-death promise,” said Meng An with a smile. “After I learned the Nine Lifetime Samsara Heart Tempering’s secret, I kept thinking about going to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. I am also grateful to the heavens for managing to find her.

“The two of us cultivated together. She has very high perception and potential. Although the opportunities set up by Ancestral Master Archean Eon can’t be shared with her, she still managed to reach the mid-stage Imperial Lord realm after all these years,” said Meng An.

When Meng Chuan heard that, he praised, “It’s indeed not bad.”

It was very difficult for Archean Eon Realm to produce an Imperial Lord.

The cultivation environment in the Earth Cloud Mystic Realm might be much better, but becoming an Imperial Lord still wasn’t easy.

“I only managed to break through to the Tribulation realm thanks to Master’s nurturing at the perfected Imperial Lord realm,” said Meng An. “I transcended the first three tribulations in a short period of time. However, I’ve been stuck at the Third Tribulation realm for centuries. My improvement has become increasingly difficult.”

“An’er,” consoled Meng Chuan, “cultivating at the Tribulation realm is like groping in the dark. It will become harder and harder. During this process, we will encounter many setbacks. We will discover how many wrong paths we have taken and realize that we have ended up at a dead-end. However, every mistake will benefit us. We need to have great willpower and determination to go further in the Tribulation realm.”

Meng An nodded. He knew the difference between him and his father. His cultivation path had always been arranged by a predecessor. His father had figured his path out all by himself.

After reaching the Tribulation realm, it was very difficult for Ancestral Master Archean Eon to help Meng An any further. He could only rely on himself. This made Meng An find cultivation even harder.

“What happened after that?” asked Meng Chuan.

“My wife got pregnant,” said Meng An. “My wife and I have roamed Earth Cloud Mystic Realm for many years. We also have some enemies. To protect our child, we secretly went to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s mortal world. After our child was born, we hid our identities and nurtured him well. We taught him for nearly a century before returning to the Heaven realm to continue cultivating.

“We didn’t tell anyone about our child. In fact... Meng Yu doesn’t even know that his mother is an Imperial Lord while I’m a Tribulation Eminence.” A rare smile appeared on Meng An’s face as he recalled his family of three’s beautiful days.

“The child’s name is Meng Yu?” asked Meng Chuan. “Also, what’s your wife’s name?”

“My wife and I named the child,” said Meng An. “As for my wife, her name is Long Han.”

Upon hearing this name, Meng Chuan immediately sensed a distant place. Apart from his grandson-Meng Yu-who he had a bloodline connection with, there was another karmic connection.

Meng Chuan had never seen Long Han before. He didn’t have a bloodline connection with her, and he didn’t even know her name; thus, he naturally didn’t have a karmic connection with her. Things had changed completely after gaining knowledge of her name.

Names were very special when it came to karma. One could even kill a person through curses with just their name.

Meng An said, “Today, one of my true bodies was cultivating in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Realm Manor. Unexpectedly, a Sixth Tribulation Eminence appeared in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. He actually relied on his own strength to come to Realm Manor in an attempt to refine it. The moment he arrived, I discovered him. Likewise, he also discovered me.

“Separated by Realm Manor’s layered array formations, I immediately destroyed that true body,” said Meng An. “My other true body was with my wife at the time. I also told my wife about this matter. My wife is a middle-stage Imperial Lord. Her homeworld is Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. She can’t escape to any other inhabited world. Therefore, once the other party wants to kill her, the Sixth Tribulation Eminence can kill her with a thought simply by knowing her name. “Unable to escape, my wife severed a portion of her memories. She severed all her memories regarding our child, Meng Yu. I carried this portion of her memories with me, and I fled back to Archean Eon Realm.”

Meng An said, “I’m at the Third Tribulation realm. Now that I’m back in my homeworld and inside Heaven and Earth Great Hall, the Sixth Tribulation Eminence might not be able to kill me, even if he has one of my true bodies as a medium. Furthermore, he hasn’t captured any of my avatars. He also doesn’t have any of my flesh, blood, or hair as a medium.

“If he can’t find me or kill me, my wife’s chances of survival will increase greatly. The other party will likely take my wife hostage. My wife can also negotiate with him. If the negotiation bears fruit... the other party will probably send news to Archean Eon Realm,” said Meng An softly.

Meng Chuan asked, “Who’s that Sixth Tribulation Eminence? Since Ancestral Master Archean Eon was the one who set up the array formation, outsiders shouldn’t be able to enter.”

“Yes, he can’t.” Meng An said, “In Earth Cloud Mystic Realm, one can only leave the mystic realm after reaching the Tribulation realm. However, the avatars that leave are unable to find a way to return to the mystic realm. Once they leave, they won’t be able to return.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

He had once gone to search for the mystic realm. He had clearly followed his bloodline karmic connection to Meng An, but he couldn’t find the mystic realm.

“That Sixth Tribulation Eminence is naturally native to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm,” said Meng An. “Ever since Ancestral Master Archean Eon left behind his defenses, although Earth Cloud Mystic Realm has had several Fifth Tribulation Eminences every generation, no Sixth Tribulation Eminences have been born in the past.”

Meng Chuan could understand why that was the case. A mystic realm wasn’t a normal created world. It was a world created by an Eighth Tribulation Eminence.

Eighth Tribulation Eminences created mystic realms according to their will. They even set the laws themselves. Therefore, some mystic realms were especially suitable for cultivation. However, cultivation was just like that. If one progressed too smoothly in the beginning, they would only encounter greater resistance during the later stages. This was because these cultivators didn’t experience enough hardships. They relied on the various opportunities in the mystic realm to cultivate smoothly. When the mystic realm couldn’t provide them much help, their breakthroughs became extremely difficult.

The difficulty of reaching the Tribulation realm in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm was lower than the outside world, but the further one went, the harder it was to reach the next Tribulation realm.

“This Sixth Tribulation Eminence is called Grandsire Three Stones,” said Meng An. “He was the strongest Fifth Tribulation Eminence in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm and also the most mysterious one. I never expected him to become a Sixth Tribulation Eminence secretly.”

“Realm Manor is related to the ownership of a mystic realm,” said Meng Chuan. “When he found you there, he definitely thought of ways to capture you.”

“Yes.” Meng An nodded and somewhat exhaustedly said, “Dad, I abandoned my wife and child and fled alone. I feel like I’m a deserter back when I was guarding the city passes.”

“An’er, you should understand that you have the greatest chance of survival by doing this,” said Meng Chuan. “If you are captured, all of you will be doomed. By escaping, the other party won’t kill your wife easily. As for Meng Yu’s current identity, it’s still a secret for

now.”

Meng An nodded.

He had guarded city passes for many years and knew how to make the right choices. He wouldn’t be soft-hearted. However, he still felt tormented even though he knew he was doing the right thing.

Meng Chuan looked at his son. “You came back using a Spacetime Teleportation Talisman?”

“Yes.” Meng An nodded. “Otherwise, it’s impossible for me to escape from Grandsire Three Stones’s pursuit.”

“In other words, it hasn’t even been an hour since he arrived in the Realm Manor.” Meng Chuan pondered. “It will normally take one about ten years to refine a mystic realm. With the defenses left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon, it will probably take even longer.”

Meng An nodded.

“Since he doesn’t control Earth Cloud Mystic Realm...” said Meng Chuan. “I can attempt to pay a visit.”
