Chapter 580: 580

Chapter 580 I’m Willing to Serve You, City Lord

A wine cup shard . Could this wine cup be some powerful treasure? Meng Chuan was puzzled . He could sense Demon Slayer’s desire . Like its desire to absorb flesh and blood, it wanted to devour the fragment . However, Meng Chuan didn’t let it do so immediately . Instead, he waved his hand, and the shard flew in front of him .

It was the size of a finger, resembling an ordinary wine glass’s fragment without any runes .

It’s just a shard . It’s not a treasure fragment . Even its materials are very common . There’s nothing special on the surface, but it’s very heavy . Meng Chuan was somewhat puzzled . Despite being the size of a finger, it’s as heavy as a mountain .

I’ve never heard of such a heavy cup before . Meng Chuan was puzzled .

Some outer realm’s materials were indeed very heavy . Despite being the size of a fist, they were as heavy as a star, but nobody used such heavy materials to make wine cups .

Perhaps some large-sized lifeforms would use super-large wine cups, but the fragment in front of him was very small . It was probably only a normal wine cup that humans used, yet it was so heavy . What kind of lifeform would use it?

Special material? It looks very ordinary . I’ll slice off a bit first . I can appraise it properly in the future . With a thought, Meng Chuan controlled the wine cup fragment with his Primordial Domain and forcefully pried it apart . The force was enough to crush a Fourth Tribulation Eminence to death . He then peeled off a sliver of the fragment and put it away . As for the remaining fragment, he stopped restraining Demon Slayer and allowed it to absorb the fragment according to its instinctive desire .

Demon Slayer’s tip touched the fragment and began absorbing it instinctively .

The fragment appeared ordinary . No matter how Meng Chuan looked at it, there was nothing special about it other than its weight . Demon Slayer’s absorption was like a catalyst, drawing out the true strength hidden within it .

Boom!

in

Meng Chuan only saw blood-colored waves suddenly surge out from the fragment . Instantly, it filled the entire cultivation chamber . The terrifying blood-colored waves made Meng Chuan’s heart tighten . His Primordial domain and illusory Essence Soul World were useless . However, Meng Chuan’s Primordial Body was able to block 99% of the blood-colored waves .

However, a minute amount still entered Meng Chuan’s body and attacked his Essence Soul .

Baneful aura? Meng Chuan felt the impact on his Essence Soul .

I’m at the Physical Body Tribulation Realm and the Essence Soul Tribulation realm . If it were an ordinary Physical Body Fifth Tribulation Eminence, their body would be able to withstand most of the impact . However, their Essence Souls would probably be severely injured . Those with weaker mental cultivation might even have their consciousness destroyed . Meng Chuan was secretly alarmed .

Even though one’s Essence Soul and willpower were very strong at the Essence Soul Fifth Tribulation realm, it would be pretty impressive if they could maintain 20-30% of their full strength when trying to resist the full impact without a perfected body .

At the Physical Body Fifth Tribulation realm, one’s body was in the way, but their Essence Souls were weak . It would be very difficult for them to withstand the attack as well .

Among Fifth Tribulation Eminences, only Meng Chuan—who was very strong in both aspects—could withstand the attacks easily .

If he was at the Physical Body Sixth Tribulation realm… the blood-colored waves would have been unable to break through his body’s obstruction . If his Essence Soul was at the Sixth Tribulation realm, his Essence Soul’s extreme strength would make the blood-colored waves feel like a gentle breeze, allowing him to face them easily .

The blood-colored waves are very similar to the baneful aura in my homeworld, but it’s many times stronger . It can threaten a Fifth Tribulation Eminence, and this is only a fragment of the wine cup . If it’s the full cup… it might even pose a threat to a Sixth Tribulation Eminence .

What is its background?

As Meng Chuan pondered, Demon Slayer frantically devoured the fragment .

It was an evil saber in Archean Eon Realm’s history . It liked to devour flesh, blood, and baneful aura; it would even attack its owner . If its owner’s Essence Soul wasn’t strong enough, they would easily sink into madness . Back on Archean Mountain, Meng Chuan chose it and named it Demon Slayer . After Meng Chuan rose to prominence-during his slaughtering of demons when he killed millions of demon monarchs in the worldDemon Slayer devoured a countless amount of flesh, blood, and baneful aura . Meng Chuan even used his comprehended insights to form Demon Slayer’s Dao .

Demon Slayer also devoured an alien lifeform’s flesh and blood, as well as the corpse of an Eight-Headed Star Swallowing Snake, but it didn’t absorb much baneful aura in the outer realm .

At that moment, it trembled and crazily absorbed the blood-colored wave . Having reached the level of a Fifth Tribulation weapon, it could devour this energy . As time passed, Demon Slayer’s color gradually turned red, making it look even more demonic .

Meng Chuan’s perception of Demon Slayer was very sharp . He could sense that Demon Slayer was transforming . It was a qualitative transformation of the weapon’s core, making it become stronger . Since it was a development towards more strength and Demon Slayer yearned for it, Meng Chuan naturally didn’t stop it .

Meng Chuan didn’t fear the blood-colored baneful aura .

After Demon Slayer sucked all the energy, Demon Slayer was controlled by its master . The backlash was naturally weaker than when it first erupted . Therefore, he was even less afraid .

It’s been six hours, but it has only absorbed only this much . It’ll probably take half a month to finish absorbing it . I’ll delay my battle with Snake Fiend Star for half a month .

He felt that Demon Slayer would greatly increase his melee combat strength after it completely absorbed the blood-colored wave .

He naturally had to deal with Snake Fiend Star in optimal state .

Two figures arrived in the void where Thousand Mountain Star was .

Thousand Mountain Star .

Two figures appeared side by side-a man and a woman-as they looked at Thousand Mountain Star from afar .

The man was tall and had a vertical eye . He exuded a powerful aura, but he appeared somewhat simple .

The woman was petite in comparison . She was dressed in a light-white robe .

“We’ve been in Three Bay River System for so many years, but we’ve never seen Thousand Mountain Star . Although it’s recorded in history that Thousand Mountain Star is in the surrounding area, we weren’t able to find it,” exclaimed the man . “It has appeared now . ’ “The surrounding void has a range of billions of kilometers, but Thousand Mountain Star is hidden in a very tiny area,” said the petite woman with a smile . “Without high attainments in the void lineage, it’s impossible to find it . ”

Indeed . If it wasn’t for Ancestral Master Archean Eon, Meng Chuan would’ve needed a long time to search the region that spanned billions of kilometers with his Essence Soul World . Even if I he found it, cracking Thousand Mountain Star’s array formation would have been very difficult .

With Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s detailed explanation on how to crack the array formation, it was much more convenient . Of course, only those at the Fifth Tribulation realm could do such a thing .

“I wonder what kind of personality City Lord Eastcalm has,” said the tall, vertical-eyed man hesitantly .

“Regardless, he needs sufficient manpower if he wants to build an Eternal Tower branch here . If we join him now, he will most likely be willing to accept us . ”

“Should we wait for him to finish off Snake Fiend Star before coming over?” asked the man worriedly . “I’m always worried that he might fall out with Snake Fiend Star and anger Cave Lord Scenic Cloud . When that happens, he will be forced to escape Three Bay River System . Then, won’t we have to leave Three Bay River System as well? I don’t wish to leave . I still have to take care of my homeworld’s Supremacies and Imperial Lords . ”

“Pang Feng, if you are too cautious about everything, you won’t be able to grasp opportunities . ” The petite woman shook her head . “Once he resolves Snake Fiend Star and publicly establishes an Eternal Tower branch, there will be even more Tribulation Eminences who will follow him . If we only come when that happens, it will be very difficult for us to be valued . But if we come now… We will have a much higher status amongst his subordinates in the future . ”

The man nodded slightly . He was a cautious person, but he also felt that the woman’s words made sense . He decided to take a risk . “If City Lord Eastcalm is forced to flee from Three Bay River System because of Cave Lord Scenic Cloud, we would have no choice but to flee as well . ” The man shook his head slightly . They had never thought of betraying Eastcalm City Lord . Betraying a Fifth Tribulation Eminence was courting death!

“Once the opportunity comes, we have to seize it . ” The petite woman didn’t hesitate at all .

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The two quickly flew towards Thousand Mountain Star .

Thousand Mountain Star’s array formation was vast . As they approached Thousand Mountain Star, they felt an endless pressure .

“Why are the two of you here on Thousand Mountain Star?” A figure appeared . It was none other than Supremacy Qing Gu .

A Supremacy? The two Tribulation Eminences muttered to themselves . However, they knew that he was City Lord Eastcalm’s subordinate, so they didn’t dare belittle him . The petite woman said amiably, “We heard of City Lord Eastcalm’s name and specially came to pay our respects . ”

Supremacy Qing Gu was alarmed when facing the two Tribulation Eminences . However, he still remained calm on the surface and said, “Wait here . I’ll pass the message . ”

After a while —

The two Tribulation Eminences were allowed to enter Thousand Mountain Star and came to the peak of a mountain . The black-robed, white-haired Meng Chuan sat cross-legged . He was meditating on the Void Catalog’s third volume with his eyes closed . He only opened his eyes when he sensed the guests .

The tall, vertical-eyed man and the petite woman were alarmed by this glance . They immediately bowed respectfully . “Greetings, City Lord Eastcalm . ”

“Pan Feng, Zhong Yu,” said Meng Chuan indifferently . “Why have you come to see me?”

There were fewer than 100 Tribulation Eminences in Three Bay River System . Meng Chuan knew each of their details .

The two people in front of him were at the Third Tribulation realm . They were considered ordinary Tribulation Eminences .

“We heard that City Lord Eastcalm swept through Three Bay River System’s plundering factions in just a few hours . We are extremely impressed,” said the petite woman, Zhong Yu . “Furthermore, our cultivation has become more difficult after we reached the Tribulation realm . We’ve always yearned for guidance . Having learned that City Lord Eastcalm has arrived at Three Bay River System, we became extremely excited . Therefore, we immediately rushed over and wished to come under you . We are willing to serve you . ”

“It’s the same for me, Pang Feng . I wish to come under you and serve you, City Lord Eastcalm,” said the tall, vertical-eyed man hurriedly .

They had only seen a handful of Fifth Tribulation Eminences in their lives . He felt immense pressure every time .

The look in City Lord Eastcalm’s eyes brought about a terrifying mental pressure . He was likely at the Essence Soul Fifth Tribulation realm! It was said that the Essence Soul Fifth Tribulation Eminence was much harder to deal with than a Physical Body Fifth Tribulation Eminence . He had chosen a powerful person to cozy with .

“Come under me?” Meng Chuan raised his eyebrows . Now that he wanted to build Eastcalm City and an Eternal Tower branch, he had many miscellaneous matters to attend to . Supremacy Qing Gu and his two disciples were too weak to hold the fort . He really needed Tribulation Eminences to be his subordinates .

He originally imagined that Tribulation Eminence would only follow him after he resolved Snake Fiend Star and publicly established an Eternal Tower branch .

The two in front of him were fast! At the very least, they were the first to come to him . Furthermore, his intelligence about them showed that they were considered decent .

Meng Chuan nodded . “Alright, you two can work for me in the future . ”
