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.
