Chapter 545: 545

Chapter 545 Lifespan

That many Primordial Stones? Meng Chuan heaved a sigh of relief .

Following that, Meng Chuan recalled his main goal . He came to the treasure vault to prepare gifts for his son, who was about to enter the outer realm .

As a father, this was all he could do .

“Are there Void Transference Talismans in the treasure vault?” asked Meng Chuan .

“There are 55 of them . You can take three at most,” said the white-robed elder .

Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up .

To Qin Wu, Luo Tang, and company, it was normal for Archean Mountain to not have any Void Transference Talismans remaining .

Before Ancestral Master Archean Eon died, he had considered the entire race’s long-term development . Although he had left behind many treasures and cultivation manuals… they still needed people to cultivate them . He needed humanity’s future generations to work hard . Only with enough time and plenty of geniuses could a powerful Tribulation Eminence rise to prominence . According to the probability of a Tribulation Eminence rising, Ancestral Master Archean Eon believed that the resources he left behind could provide humanity with resources for at least 100 million years . Only then could he ensure Archean Eon Realm’s prosperity and growth .

Over 100 million years, every generation of Supremacies, Imperial Lords, and Tribulation Eminences could only receive limited resources .

Even the sect’s public resources were limited .

He couldn’t allow the Godfiends of one era to ‘waste’ it all away . He had to consider the countless Godfiends that would appear over the next 100 million-plus years .

The sect’s public resources were resources that Supremacies and Imperial Lords could use . The resources left behind by the seniors were mostly expended . Meng Chuan understood this point . Even I can only take three Void Transference Talismans .

If Meng Chuan didn’t need them, he could give them to the sect, and it would become the sect’s public resource . However, Meng Chuan needed them!

He still wanted to give one to his son, Meng An . Meng An was relatively weak, and he only had one true body . It was too dangerous for him to venture into the outer realm . If anything happened, he would be dead . As a father, Meng Chuan was very worried about his son .

“Do you have any more powerful life-preservation items?” asked Meng Chuan .

“Yes, there’s a Spacetime Teleportation Talisman in the treasury, which is stronger than Void Transference Talismans,” said the white-robed elder with a smile . “You can take one at most . ”

“Spacetime Teleportation Talisman?” Meng Chuan was somewhat puzzled .

He knew that there were treasures that allowed one to teleport items across river zones . However, he didn’t know how special it was .

“A Spacetime Teleportation Talisman can teleport one to the other end of the River of Spacetime in a short period of time,” said the white-robed elder with a smile . “It’s a life-preservation treasure for Sixth Tribulation Eminences . Most Seventh Tribulation Eminences will find it difficult to stop a Spacetime Teleportation Talisman . ”

“From one end of the River of Spacetime to the other?” Meng Chuan was somewhat shocked as he asked, “In what aspect is a Void Transference Talisman weaker than it?”

“Void Transference Talismans are one level weaker,” explained the white-robed elder . “Void Transference Talismans only allows one to cross many river systems within the same river zone in an instant . Furthermore, Void Transference Talismans are useless in front of Seventh Tribulation Eminences . Of course, most Sixth Tribulation Eminences can’t stop them . Only a small number can . In the outer realm, Void Transference Talismans are the most famous life-preservation items . ”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly .

Ordinary Tribulation Eminences rarely saw Sixth Tribulation Eminences . Thus, it was difficult to provoke them . Even if one did provoke a Sixth Tribulation Eminence, a single Void Transference Talisman was enough to save one’s life . “By the way, a Void Transference Talisman is counted as 300 Outer Realm Essence Crystals . A Spacetime Teleportation Talisman counts as 3,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals . These are very difficult to buy in the outside world, especially Spacetime Teleportation Talismans,” said the white-robed elder with a smile .

“Yes . ” Meng Chuan was somewhat excited . “Are there any treasures in the treasure vault that can extend one’s lifespan?”

“Yes, there are 19 of them . You can only take one at most,” said the white-robed elder . “The stronger one is, the weaker the effects of longevity extension treasures . ”

Meng Chuan frowned slightly .

I can only take one at most? “Come, follow me . There are many treasures in the treasure vault . Take a look at them one by one . ” The white-robed elder was extremely enthusiastic . The walls behind him cracked open, and Meng Chuan immediately entered with the white-robed elder .

Although he still didn’t have the right to see some of the treasures in the treasure vault, what Meng Chuan saw still shocked him . It broadened his horizons, allowing him to understand how unfathomable the outer realm was . He realized just how many treasures and rare items had been monopolized by experts . These treasures… Meng Chuan was tempted by the treasures . Unfortunately, there were a limited number of treasures available to him . Furthermore, the total value of all the treasures he could take couldn’t exceed 50,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals .

Three days later, in a pavilion at Grotto-Heaven Pavilion’s backyard . Meng Chuan was drinking tea .

“Dad . ” Meng An rushed over when his father summoned him .

“An’er . ” Meng Chuan put down his teacup and smiled at his son . “You previously said that you have to leave Archean Eon Realm within three years after winning the war?” .

Meng An nodded . “Yes, this is a rule set by Ancestral Master Archean Eon . ”

“Then, stay in our homeworld until the three-year deadline is almost up . Leave when it’s time,” instructed Meng Chuan .

Meng An hesitated for a moment before saying, “Dad, I want to leave in the near future . ”

“Leave in the near future?” Meng Chuan was alarmed as he looked at his son . “An’er, your grandfather is getting older . He doesn’t have much time left . If you leave now, he will be worried about you . ” Meng An looked at Meng Chuan . “I have a reason for wanting to leave as soon as possible . ”

“What reason?” Meng Chuan stared at his son .

“The reason why I’m cultivating so desperately is not only to deal with the war but also for something else . ” Meng An looked at his father . “I have to become stronger as soon as possible . I have to head to the mystic realm as soon as possible . ”

Meng Chuan looked at his son .

Meng An looked at his father .

The father-son duo stared at each other for a moment…

Meng Chuan could tell that the reason was very important to his son, even though he didn’t elaborate on it .

Meng Chuan nodded slightly, somewhat exhausted, and said, “Alright then, when do you want to set off?”

Meng An was somewhat ashamed . “As soon as possible . ”

“Then, let’s wait another 20 days,” said Meng Chuan .

Meng An obediently agreed .

Meng Chuan looked at his son, who was only at the Supremacy realm . Meng An didn’t have another true body . How could he head to another river zone just like that? Meng Chuan was naturally worried .

In one of Heaven and Earth Great Hall’s chambers .

Meng Chuan sat cross-legged . An Outer Realm Essence Crystal in front of him transformed into surging outer realm essence energy that constantly flooded his body .

Meng Chuan seized the opportunity to break through .

After obtaining a Primordial Stone from the treasure vault, his dantian’s Chaos Hole devoured it . Once the Primordial Stone had been absorbed, his body transformed, and this true body finally broke through to the Primordial realm .

Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasure vault naturally had Outer realm Essence crystals . However, Meng Chuan didn’t have the right to know how many were inside . In short, his quota of 50,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals was nothing to Ancestral Master Archean Eon .

The true body in my homeworld has also reached the Imperial Lord realm . Meng Chuan felt like his body had completely transformed . It was already comparable to his true body in the outer realm .

Reaching the Primordial realm makes me an Imperial Lord, mutteredMeng Chuan to himself .

With Infinite Saber-an Imperial Lord-level paramount technique-as his foundation, his lifespan had increased to 100,000 years after reaching the Primordial realm (Imperial Lord realm) .

Even among special lifeforms, only the strongest special lifeforms—the pure-blooded dragons and phoenixes-could have 100,000-year lifespans . Meng Chuan had now reached the same level .

Such a long lifespan was enough to make many Tribulation Eminences envious . I wonder if I should refine more Primordial Stones after becoming an Imperial Lord .

With a flip of his hand, a fist-sized Primordial Stone appeared in his palm . When he held the Primordial Stone, his dantian had the urge to devour it . The impulse was much weaker than when he was at the Chaos Hole realm .

In the treasure vault, the Primordial Stones were 30% cheaper than the Eternal Tower’s . After all, Eternal Tower was doing business with the goal of earning Outer Realm Essence Crystals . As for Ancestral Master Archean Eon, he was only considering humanity’s future generations, so he naturally provided it at cost price .

With a thought, a dark Chaos Hole appeared in his palm as he devoured the Primordial Stone .

The Primordial Stone was sucked into his dantian . When it approached the tiny gray star in his dantian, the Primordial Stone silently disintegrated . The disintegration power couldn’t be seen with the naked eye, but Meng Chuan could vaguely sense that most of the Primordial Stone’s had been devoured by the tiny gray star . A portion of it scattered and fused with his body . The gray star also expanded in size as his body slowly transformed .

I absorbed it just like that? Meng Chuan was stunned . He flipped his hand and took out another Primordial Stone .

One stone after another…

Meng Chuan consumed five Primordial Stones, and only a small portion of the sixth stone was consumed .

After becoming an Imperial Lord, Meng Chuan’s body and dantian absorbed about 1,500 cubes Essence Crystals worth of Primordial Stones before he was satiated .

Including the Primordial Stone that I needed to absorb when I was at the Chaos Hole realm, one true body requires 1,800 Essence Crystals worth of Primordial Stones . The total for both bodies is 3,600 cubes .

My Essence Soul is as strong as a Fourth Tribulation Eminence’s . I wonder if I can reach the Fifth Tribulation realm’s threshold if I include my physical body’s strength . If I have strength at the Fifth Tribulation realm’s threshold, I can prepare better gifts for An’er .

Meng Chuan was very worried about his son . He had no idea when he could meet his son again after he headed to the outer realm .
