Chapter 492: 492

Chapter 492 New Arrival

Scenes of the surrounding spacetime constantly flashed and disappeared . Meng Chuan remained cautious while the chaotic spacetime turbulence enveloped him .

Just like how water flowed down, spacetime turbulence followed certain laws; it would flow towards the place of least resistance . For example, a Grand Yang Star or a cave abode set up by a Tribulation Eminence would have very powerful repulsive forces . It was unlikely for him to end up in such places .

Of course, spacetime turbulence was… turbulent .

This resulted in occasional accidents . For example, spacetime turbulence could sometimes be too violent, forcefully leading its load to unimaginable places . It would bring them to places like a Grand Yang Star’s core! If Meng Chuan arrived at a Grand Yang Star’s core, he would probably be instantly reduced to ashes and die .

I’m going out! As he was on high alert, Meng Chuan saw a void rift appear in front of him . Meng Chuan was carried out of the rift by the spatial turbulence .

In the dark and silent void, a spatial rift appeared . Meng Chuan rushed out and quickly steadied himself .

This is? Meng Chuan looked around . He could see many stars in the distance; he could also vaguely see worlds between the stars . My luck isn’t bad . I didn’t appear in a perilous zone, nor did I appear in a completely barren region . Meng Chuan secretly rejoiced in his luck . I can see several worlds with life at a glance . There must be many cultivators here .

Swoosh .

Meng Chuan used his movement technique to fly over silently .

The outer realm’s resistance was negligible, so he could constantly accelerate . Even ordinary Supremacies could move hundreds of kilometers in a second when they weren’t affected by worldly laws or resistance! They could even accelerate to the point they could move thousands of kilometers per second .

Chi! Chi! Chi!

Meng Chuan transformed into a golden beam of light as he accelerated . Soon, he reached a speed of 150,000 kilometers a second .

In the outer realm, any Supremacy would accelerate themselves until they moved at extremely high speeds . At the same time, Meng Chuan changed the flow of time . Of course, it was only three times faster than the outside world .

I’m a new arrival, so I should keep a low profile . I’ll maintain this three-fold time dilation so that I’m not too eye-catching . Considering my original speed of 150,000 kilometers a second… my traveling speed is now boosted to an effective 450,000 kilometers per second .

Moving 150,000 kilometers per second usually required a long acceleration period . This didn’t represent his strength .

It would be truly terrifying if he could unleash such astonishing speed instantly .

Meng Chuan flew towards the distant stars . His domain hid his aura .

On a piece of stellar debris—which was more than 500 kilometers in diameter—was a massive cave abode . The cave abode spanned more than 50 kilometers; from it, terrifying sword beams emanated in all directions .

Five figures landed on the stellar debris’s surface and stared at the ancient cave abode .

“Ah . ” A cyan-scaled expert covered his head with one claw and said in a deep voice, “My Essence Soul avatar was killed . It was killed by the sword beams the moment it entered the cave abode’s entrance . ” “Brother Qing Gu failed as well?”

“Both attempts failed . ”

The five Supremacies stared at the cave abode in front of them . Three of them had sixth-level Essence Souls . Of them, two had met with failure after sending their Essence Soul avatars in .

It would take several years for their Essence Soul to recover even when the Essence Soul avatars were killed during reconnaissance . “An Essence Soul avatar is ultimately much weaker . It doesn’t have any powerful treasures,” said the purple-robed leader indifferently . “Same old rules . Whoever takes the risk and successfully investigates the cave abode will gain 10% more treasures . ”

The other four Supremacies didn’t say a word .

From their previous reconnaissance attempts, they knew that this cave abode was too dangerous! “Cang Qu, your life-preservation means are strong . Go in,” instructed the purple-robed man .

“Brother Fang,” said a muscular yellow-furred man immediately, “I’m the only Supremacy of my homeworld . If I die…”

“Go in!” said the purple-robed man indifferently . The other three Supremacies also glanced at him .

The cyan-scaled Supremacy smiled and said, “To only have one Supremacy in a world . There are plenty of such low-grade worlds . If Brother Fang wants you to enter, just obediently enter . If you successfully probe the cave abode, you can receive 10% more treasures . ”

The yellow-furred man gritted his teeth and carefully entered .

After a while —

Oh? A wisp of light dissipated from the purple-robed man’s token . The purple-robed man frowned slightly .

“Cang Qu is dead . ”

The other three Supremacies had ugly expressions .

The outer realm was a place where the strong preyed on the weak . When they followed the purple-robed man, they could reap some of the leftover benefits he enjoyed! Furthermore, it was much safer than venturing alone . However, when cannon fodder was needed, they had to play the role obediently .

“Brother Fang, Cang Qu’s life-preservation means are much stronger than ours . He’s already dead . It’s useless for us to enter . ”

“Brother Fang . ”

“This cave abode is too dangerous . We will be sending ourselves to our deaths if we enter . ” The three Supremacies were somewhat flustered .

The purple-robed man frowned as he stared at the cave abode . He thought to himself, This cave abode has flown around for countless years . I discovered it first when it came to our void . I have to obtain the treasures within . From the looks of it, I can’t rely on them . I’ll send my Essence Soul avatar to give it a try .

He only had a sixth-level Essence Soul . Thus, he only had one Essence Soul avatar . Once his Essence Soul avatar died, it would take several years for him to recover . He would rather make his subordinates risk their lives than allow his combat prowess to decrease . However, it was useless even if his subordinates risked their lives . He could only do it himself .

“Oh?” The purple-robed man suddenly sensed something and turned to look into the distance .

“There is a cultivator flying at high speeds . ” A white-robed woman stared into the distance .

Although Meng Chuan hid his figure as he flew at terrifying speeds, he couldn’t hide his tracks! Meng Chuan flew at a terrifying speed of 150,000 kilometers per second . After speeding up the time flow by three-fold, wherever he passed, a long ripple appeared in the void .

The black-armored man’s eyes emitted a purple glow as he stared at Meng Chuan from afar . He said solemnly, “He’s a Supremacy . He has sped up the time flow around him by three-fold . ”

“Brother Fang, you can let this lone Supremacy probe the cave abode’s situation,” said the white-robed woman immediately .

“That’s right . With one more probing attempt, we can also discover this cave abode’s dangers,” said the cyan-scaled expert immediately .

The purple-robed man nodded slightly . “Let’s go investigate him and find out his origins . If he has no special background, capture him . ” In the entire Heaven Peak River System, some factions were very powerful . Of course, most cultivators came from small worlds . They were ordinary Supremacies with no background!

This was because there were only over 600 middle-level worlds out of the 100,000 worlds with life in Heaven Peak River System! The rest were all low-grade worlds . In low-grade worlds, one could only reach the Supremacy realm after thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years . They were all alone when they came to the outer realm . They didn’t have any backing

The muscular yellow-furred man, Cang Qu, was a Supremacy of a lower-grade world . He didn’t have any backing .

Cang Qu chose to submit to the purple-robed man . Over the years, he had benefited greatly . He had also reached the perfected Supremacy realm . He had brought back many treasures and cultivation manuals to his homeworld . However, he failed to survive this particular expedition because of the purple-robed man .

This was what life in the outer realm was like . They didn’t come from the same world . The only thing binding them together was interests . It was a cruel situation .

Meng Chuan left his homeworld and roamed the outer realm alone .

As a middle-level world that had given birth to a Seventh Tribulation Eminence, Archean Eon Realm had a rich heritage . Meng Chuan had brought many treasures with him, including the Mask of Illusion .

With the Mask of Illusion, Meng Chuan could perfectly disguise his aura to that of a Supremacy . His Chaos Hole realm aura… If he were to release his aura, it would be extremely domineering-close to that of an Imperial Lord . However, if he converged his aura, nothing would leak out . Even ordinary Imperial Lords would find it difficult to converge their auras so perfectly . This was a special technique one had after reaching the Chaos Hole realm . It was best to disguise as the most commonly seen cultivators-Supremacies—while roaming the outer realm . Otherwise, he would appear too special! Be it releasing his domineering aura or converging his aura until it didn’t leak out, any Imperial Lord that passed by would find Meng Chuan special!

The Mask of Illusion was a rare treasure! Even Tribulation Eminences had to be very close to Meng Chuan to detect his true strength .

Oh? Meng Chuan, who was flying at high speeds, sensed four streaks of light intercepting him from afar . The four streaks of light also accelerated until they moved 150,000 kilometers per second . They altered the time flow by tenfold .

“Friend, stop . ” As the four light streams approached, a voice echoed in the surrounding void—which seemed to freeze .

The powerful resistance acting on Meng Chuan caused him to slow down . Meng Chuan stopped and looked at the four figures flying over .
