There were many Chaos creatures imprisoned on Dry Origin Mountain. Meng Chuan also wanted to kill a peak Seventh Tribulation Chaos creature, but he had made many attempts. His Essence Soul avatar was forced to dissipate every time. If it didn’t dissipate on its own accord, it would be devoured by the Chaos creature.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to defeat them—he just wasn’t strong enough!

According to the intelligence provided by Senior Brother Thousand-Hands, one had to reach the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm before they had a chance of killing a peak Seventh Tribulation Chaos creature.

Meng Chuan didn’t give up on his attempts. He understood the accuracy of the intelligence. Although he was only one step away from grasping a complete spacetime law, it was extremely difficult to take that final step. For example, Guild Master Fiend Eye, Lord of Li Rainbow, Realm Ancestor, and the others had long grasped the three basic parts of the temporal law, but they were unable to fuse them into a complete temporal law.

There were many Seventh Tribulation Eminences in every generation. There were also many who grasped the three basic parts of the temporal law. However, the number of half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminences was much lower.

The difficulty was this tiny sliver.

This sliver is the greatest obstacle to becoming a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence. Meng Chuan stood in the spatial cell as 3,000 Heaven Splitting Blades floated around him, their might affecting the surroundings.

He was surrounded by a distorted spacetime maze.

An ugly, massive Chaos creature was hiding in horror. Its eight short legs were thick and powerful. With a blink of its four eyes, it could easily construct an illusion. In terms of strength, it was on the same level as the Ouroboros from before. However, Meng Chuan was clearly much stronger than when he killed the serpent.

Meng Chuan cast the array formation as he pleased, cracking the Chaos creature’s numerous attacks.

An illusion cast by a Chaos creature?

As an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, Meng Chuan was good at illusions. He had studied the 3,000 illusory arrays, making his attainments in this aspect stronger than this Chaos creature that relied on talent.

In a head-on battle? He could easily crush his opponent.

“Apart from the Samsara of Time, you don’t seem to have any other powerful moves.” Meng Chuan shook his head slightly when he saw the Chaos creature fleeing in fright.

Go.

With a thought—

The 3,000 Heaven Splitting Sabers formed a chain of saber beams that swept in all directions.

The Chaos Hole Heaven Splitting Array’s fourth transformation—As Desired Saber Chain.

With this sweep, the spacetime maze was sliced apart like tofu, revealing the hiding Chaos creature. It tried to dodge in panic, but it couldn’t dodge the Heaven Splitting Saber Chain.

Meng Chuan’s Chaos Hole Heaven Splitting Saber Array had a total of six changes. The fourth change was relatively more controllable, so Meng Chuan could use it easily.

Pfft.

Wherever the saber chain passed, the flow of time changed. Everything happened in an instant. The massive Chaos creature that looked like a lizard had been sliced apart and destroyed, its existence obliterated.

Meng Chuan took a step and arrived in front of the Life Core.

The Life Core was a gray cloth bag.

It’s easy to deal with a top Seventh Tribulation Chaos creature, but I was at an absolute disadvantage when facing a peak Seventh Tribulation Chaos creature, even when using my strongest transformation—the sixth one. I was easily trounced. Meng Chuan sighed.

It was indeed true that even a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence only had a chance of killing a peak Seventh Tribulation Chaos creature.

Meng Chuan ultimately hadn’t crossed that line. There was still a gap between him and a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence.

No matter how dazzling a top Seventh Tribulation Eminence was in history, they would at most be praised as someone who was close to the half-step Eighth Tribulation realm.

Whoosh.

The gray cloth bag had a hint of turbid aura. The moment Meng Chuan reached out and touched the gray cloth bag, the cloth bag completely disintegrated like sand and dissipated into the void.

The mysterious power contained in the Life Core—a cloth bag—completely fused with Meng Chuan’s body. Meng Chuan very familiarly left the spatial cell and silently waited for the fusion to end.

The devouring process to obtain mysterious powers ended in just an hour.

The benefits this time aren’t that obvious. Meng Chuan sat cross-legged on a withered, yellow grassland on Dry Origin Mountain and carefully took in the experience.

Due to his previous transformation, he had some talent as a Chaos creature of the temporal lineage. This time, there were very few changes.

I didn’t even form any talent moves. Meng Chuan sighed.

His gains made it easier for him to control time at a more micro level.

Just like how birds could fly and how fish could swim, Meng Chuan could now control time more precisely. With the fusion of time and space, Meng Chuan didn’t need any talent moves. He could create an illusion with his own insights—Samsara of Time.

Compared to the illusory world—Samsara of Time—my improved control over time is somewhat beneficial to my cultivation. Meng Chuan naturally had all sorts of plans for controlling time and space.

As for the temporal law, I still have no idea how to combine the past, present, and future. Meng Chuan frowned.

He kept feeling like he had improved, but he couldn’t break through the bottleneck. He couldn’t even infer the process clearly.

In fact, he had already grasped the temporal law’s three foundational aspects during his first 5,000 years on Dry Origin Mountain. He had cultivated for another 1,000 years before killing the second Chaos creature, hoping to accumulate more insights.

Meng Chuan hoped that he would have an obvious breakthrough if he accumulated enough insights and gained a new talent.

How do I fuse them? The continuation of the past is the present. The present is also the future of the past. Meng Chuan shook his head slightly.

As part of the temporal law, the trifecta affected each other.

The past and the present.

The present and the future.

The past and the future.

The connections were too strong, and there were too many directions. However, Meng Chuan was left at a loss no matter which direction he attempted. None of them gave him any confidence.

There’s no clear idea or direction. I’ve just obtained some new talent, but I don’t have any new ideas either. Meng Chuan fell into deep thought.

Grasping the laws of time and space was equally difficult for Chaos creatures. The spacetime law wasn’t something that could be grasped with just a little talent.

At this moment, it’s not very helpful to immerse myself in cultivation. I need a flash of inspiration and some stimulus. Meng Chuan came to a decision. Forget it. I’ll travel around; I’ll take a closer look at my home universe. After cultivating for so many years, there are many places in my home universe that I haven’t been to. For example, I’ve always wanted to go to Nine Tribulations Planet, but I’ve never been there.

…

Eighth Tribulation Eminences had gone far in terms of time and space.

Time and space were only two major tools they used to study the endless spacetime. The ruins they left behind contained the direction of their cultivation path. Meng Chuan decided not to cultivate arduously. Instead, he traveled and cultivated as he looked around.

The places he saw were naturally the ruins left behind by an Eighth Tribulation Eminence. Although Dry Origin Mountain was left behind by an Eternal existence—and perhaps because it was created by an Eternal existence, Meng Chuan couldn’t comprehend anything.

The mountains were mountains, the trees were trees, and the vegetation was vegetation—everything was ordinary.

If it was destroyed, everything could be restored. The profundities were opaque, making it difficult for Meng Chuan to comprehend them.

On the contrary, Meng Chuan could comprehend a lot of the marks left behind by Eighth Tribulation Eminences.

Nine Tribulations Planet.

The white-robed, white-haired Meng Chuan arrived above a massive planet. The entire planet emitted an endless baneful aura. The baneful aura was so thick that Fifth Tribulation Eminences could only watch from afar. Sixth Tribulation Eminences might be able to approach the planet, but they couldn’t descend to the planet’s surface.

Nine Tribulations Planet is impressive. Meng Chuan looked down and sighed in amazement.

From high up in the sky, mountain ranges undulated across the planet’s surface as rivers flowed everywhere.

They naturally formed paintings, and the nine paintings covered the entire planet’s surface.

Using the planet as a canvas and the mountains and rivers as brushstrokes, this is a freely drawn painting. Meng Chuan nodded. However, the beauty can’t hide the baneful aura.

Meng Chuan slowly descended.
