Chapter 521: 521

Chapter 521 The Hunt Ends

After killing an Imperial Lord, Meng Chuan remained calm as he charged out of the array formation at full speed .

After staying on Black Dragon Planet for so many years, he bought other Tribulation treasures that were suitable for him as his strength increased .

For example, the Lightning Domain Seal-a Fifth Tribulation treasure-combined with his Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique and formed a domain! Due to his cultivation of Selfless Formless Sword, Meng Chuan had accumulated a lot of insights into domains . This resulted in his self-created Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique being extremely good at void lineage domains .

Meng Chuan decisively decided to combine his Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique’s main void domain with a suitable Tribulation treasure . This made it so that even perfected Imperial Lords might not necessarily be stronger than Meng Chuan when it came to the void lineage .

As for killing enemies?

He matched his Infinite Saber-a paramount technique—with the Lightning Dwarf Star for killing!

The two combinations worked in conjunction —the domain suppressed his enemies while the Lightning Dwarf Star attacked them! With the two combined, Meng Chuan believed he could fight a perfected Imperial Lord .

However, I’m still no match for a Tribulation Eminence . Meng Chuan knew this very well . His and those pure-blooded dragon and phoenix youths’ strength represented the peak of the Supremacy realm! Although they represented the peak of the Supremacy realm, it was impossible for them to fight a Tribulation Eminence . This was the knowledge left behind by generations of cultivators .

Swoosh!

It took a long time to describe, but after Meng Chuan revealed his strength, he no longer concealed his speed . He rapidly accelerated . With a fifty-fold faster time flow around him, he rushed out of the array formation as a bolt of lightning

Whoosh .

As he rushed out of the array formation, Meng Chuan waved his hand and threw out some items .

With his present realm, Meng Chuan could instantly sweep up the war spoils when he killed the Imperial Lord .

Tribulation treasures, Outer Realm Essence Crystals, Outer Realm Essence Stones, exotic plants, life-preservation items, and so on… These common items could be kept . Meng Chuan didn’t hesitate to throw away anything related to Black Fiend Hall, talismans, and other items that he couldn’t identify! He didn’t want to keep any items that may have had tracking methods embedded into them .

The moment he rushed out of the array formation, Meng Chuan looked back .

The void was still pitch-black . One array formation after another blocked off all prying eyes! However, Meng Chuan could sense the killing intent . The cultivators trapped in the array formation were clearly struggling .

Time to go! Meng Chuan looked back and activated a Lesser Void Transference Talisman without any hesitation .

As he was skilled in the void lineage, Meng Chuan could teleport 400,000 kilometers in an instant . However, his teleportation was far inferior to a Lesser Void Transference Talisman .

Buzz

Meng Chuan instantly realized he could see things from another angle . The entire spacetime was distorted and warped . After using a Lesser Void Transference Talisman, Meng Chuan could see the surrounding stars collapse in the distorted spacetime . The spacetime he could sense seemed to have become a box .

This is true spacetime . Meng Chuan knew what he was seeing . As his cultivation realm increased, his insights into spacetime became deeper . Ordinary Supremacies perceived spacetime to be a thousand-layered cake . Those at higher realms understood that spacetime consisted of countless boxes . Perhaps a Seventh Tribulation Eminence or an Eighth Tribulation Eminence could discover a different appearance to spacetime . Perhaps it was different when viewed from the eyes of a Ninth Tribulation existence, Eternal .

At different realms, one saw the same view, but they saw different realities .

At this moment, he was just an ant in the box . With the help of a Lesser Void Transference Talisman, the ant jumped from one side of the box to the other side .

Whoosh .

Meng Chuan felt the scenery before him change .

He had already arrived in another outer realm void . When he turned around, he couldn’t see Black Dragon Planet or the Yin-Yang Stellar Array . He had teleported billions of kilometers away .

The distance I’ve traversed is really far . Meng Chuan sighed in amazement . My Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique is focused on the void lineage . I have to reach the Fifth Tribulation realm before I can do such a thing normally .

In contrast, a Void Transference Talisman was extremely expensive and nearly unpurchasable .

It was usually easier for Imperial Lords to buy Lesser Void Transference Talismans . They could afford the cost of 40 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals if they steeled their hearts a little .

There’s a reason why it’s expensive . I escaped really far away, thought Meng Chuan . Even if there are Fifth Tribulation Eminences amongst those lunatics of Black Fiend Hall, they might not be able to execute Lesser Void Transference . Even if there are, they won’t waste time hunting me when there are so many other cultivators, right?

If they really came to pursue him? Meng Chuan couldn’t escape a Fifth Tribulation Eminence even if he used all his treasures . After all, the difference in strength was too great .

In fact, Fifth Tribulation Eminences thought nothing of him .

Black Fiend Hall was busy hunting over 10,000 fleeing cultivators . How could a Fifth Tribulation Eminence leave this important hunting ground just because an Imperial Lord managed to escape?

Without the array formations obstructing the cultivators, it would be extremely difficult to intercept and kill an Imperial Lord who escaped using a Lesser Void Transference Talisman . Furthermore, Black Fiend Hall’s three Fifth Tribulation Eminences couldn’t leave alone while they were hunting . They had to be prepared to work together to prevent any accidents from happening . This was a rule set by Black Fiend Hall .

A Lesser Void Transference Talisman? The long-browed elder stopped when he saw Meng Chuan disappear . He was rather indignant .

I lost one of the five Imperial Lords under my command for such a simple mission . The long-browed elder was vexed . The red-haired Imperial Lord had been forced to serve Black Fiend Hall, but he would no longer be enslaved by Black Fiend Hall since this true body had died in battle . The red-haired Imperial Lord’s true body in his homeworld would definitely cultivate a new true body since he had already lost his treasures .

From Black Fiend Hall’s point of view, they had lost a portion of their strength . The long-browed elder had to bear some responsibility . Kill! The long-browed elder’s eyes were filled with anger as he flew out of the array formation to kill the other fleeing cultivators .

The battle continued outside the Yin-Yang Stellar Array

Patriarch Black Dragon stood in the void, with the silver-haired woman by his side . The two of them stared into the distance .

Hum .

Waves of invisible fluctuations scanned the surroundings .

With Patriarch Black Dragon’s strength, he naturally could clearly see what was happening outside after Black Fiend Hall’s array formations were completely exposed . Hundreds of array formations were scattered around the Yin-Yang Stellar Array, intercepting about 30% of the fleeing cultivators . The other 70% continued to flee frantically .

Amongst the fleeing cultivators, some Supremacies were allowed to escape, but Imperial Lords would definitely be pursued . Unless they had a Lesser Void Transference Talisman that allowed them to teleport to a faraway place, these Imperial Lords wouldn’t be able to escape .

“Many Imperial Lords were unwilling to buy Lesser Void Transference Talismans . Now, they will suffer a tragedy,” said the silver-haired woman .

“You are a dragon, so you don’t understand . ” Patriarch Black Dragon calmly watched the battles in the outside world . “Those Imperial Lords vary in strength . The stronger ones might be willing to buy a Lesser Void Transference Talisman, but the weaker ones’ total wealth might only be 80 to 90 Outer Realm Essence Crystals . They need to purchase Tribulation treasures, cultivation techniques, and so on . How many will be willing to spend half their wealth to buy a Lesser Void Transference Talisman that they might not necessarily need to use?”

The silver-haired woman was taken aback, but she nodded slightly .

The Imperial Lords who roamed the outer realm had about 200 Outer Realm Essence Crystals worth of treasures on average . However, this was the average for early-stage, middle-stage, late-stage, and perfected Imperial Lords . Early and middle-stage Imperial Lords that came from low-level worlds were typically poor! They would rather use their Outer Realm Essence Crystals to buy some cultivation techniques to keep in their homeworld or a frequently-used Tribulation treasure that could aid in their cultivation .

To spend half one’s wealth to buy a Lesser Void Transference Talisman?

It was impractical .

“That’s how I was like back then . ” Patriarch Black Dragon pointed at the battles happening in the outside world . Cultivators were hunted and slaughtered . Many cultivators panicked and were glad that they had escaped such a calamity . “I lived carefully . All sorts of dangers kept me on my toes constantly . I only had the right to set the rules after becoming a Tribulation Eminence . ”

This was indeed the case in the outer realm . Even Meng Chuan—who had fled to Heaven Peak River System in a sorry state with Exile Prison-was intercepted the moment he arrived .

He had to rely on his seventh-level Essence Soul and the Essence Soul Star legacy’s recovery speed before he could crack the cave abode . Otherwise, he wouldn’t have obtained the treasures Pang Ming had left behind . The commotion Yin-Yang Stellar Array gradually came to a halt . Black Fiend Hall’s hunt was about to end .

“Slightly more than 70% of the 10,000 cultivators managed to escape . I expected this . ” Patriarch Black Dragon calmly watched everything happen . “Over half of the Imperial Lords were intercepted, enslaved, or killed . Only one of the five Tribulation Eminences managed to escape . ”

“Patriarch, you have already done your best,” whispered the silver-haired woman .

“It can’t be considered as doing my best . ” Patriarch Black Dragon remained very calm . “I’m just helping them out of self-preservation . In fact, those Imperial Lords and Tribulation Eminences are much better . At most, they will lose some treasures and a true body . Those Supremacies are truly pitiful… Them dying here means a true death . In the outer realm, only by being powerful can one change their fate . ”

Following that, he turned his head and took a step forward, disappearing from view as he returned to Black Dragon Planet .

The silver-haired woman glanced at the outside world one more time before turning to leave .

After Meng Chuan entered the River of Spacetime, he fled for another five days . He fled much further than the distance he had been teleported . Meng Chuan slowly flew through the River of Spacetime . He glanced at the countless stars and inhabited worlds in the distance and understood where he was in Heaven Peak River System .

Huh? Suddenly, Meng Chuan stared at a certain spot .

From afar, it looked like a human-faced darkness . In the River of Spacetime, it appeared only that ‘large . ’ But in the void, it was extremely massive . That’s a Chaos Hole? Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up . The Chaos Hole I cultivate is quite similar to a real Chaos Hole . I’ve always wanted to find a Chaos Hole and study it at close range . This is my chance . Meng Chuan stared at it with fervent eyes .
