Chapter 571 - Eye of Eternal



Chapter 571: Eye of Eternal

This city occupied an area of about 5,000 kilometers, and Eternal Tower was the most majestic building. It was even the tallest building on Scarlet Snake Planet, surpassing all mountains.

As one of Eternal Tower’s river zone headquarters, it was 900,000 feet tall!

What an amazing Eternal Tower.

When Meng Chuan followed Chi Jiuxin and flew towards Eternal Tower, he could sense the pressure emanating from it. This was the suppressive feeling brought by the Eternal Tower’s array formation. If it were a weak cultivator, they might not have noticed it. The higher one’s cultivation realm was, the clearer they could sense the terrifying fluctuations coming from the array formation.

Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s records regarding the top-notch factions in the River of Spacetime were very detailed, including Eternal Tower. Eternal Tower’s every river zone headquarters could be said to be a fortress. This was because they were too important. They were the command centers of numerous river system branches in the River of Spacetime. It had to maintain contact with the Eternal Tower headquarters in the River of Spacetime, allowing them to carry out stable spacetime teleportations.

They could teleport experts and items instantly.

It’s very difficult for ordinary Eternal Tower members to receive immediate reinforcements in the River of Spacetime. However, Sixth Tribulation Eminences typically preside over river zone headquarters. They can receive reinforcements as long as they ask. Starlord Scarlet Snake likely had this as one of his considerations when joining Eternal Tower.

Special lifeform Tribulation Eminences placed greater importance on safety. They didn’t have the protection of an inhabited world, so it was a huge boon to have Eternal Tower’s headquarters in the River of Spacetime as reinforcements.

Whoosh.

Chi Jiuxin, Meng Chuan, and Ta Gu flew towards the huge entrance of Eternal Tower.

The entrance to Eternal Tower was extremely wide. It was 30,000 feet wide. The array formation was constantly maintained, causing Eternal Tower’s interior to be filled with layers of space. It was difficult to probe it.

Oh? The moment Meng Chuan flew through the entrance, he could vaguely sense powerful auras. He could even sense another Fifth Tribulation Eminence’s aura.

“This is Scarlet Snake Planet. There are more Fifth Tribulation Eminences here,” said Ta Gu via voice transmission to Meng Chuan. “The scarlet snakes are also a powerful special lifeform species in the River of Spacetime. There’s only one Sixth Tribulation Eminence in the entire species, but there should be over 80 Fifth Tribulation Eminences! There are 33 of them on Scarlet Snake Planet. The other Fifth Tribulation Eminences are scattered across the various river zones.”

Meng Chuan nodded.

With a Sixth Tribulation patriarch and 33 Fifth Tribulation Eminences, this place lived up to its reputation as the scarlet snakes’ lair.

Whoosh.

Eternal Tower’s array formations were profound since they could divide the building into several layers of space.

Chi Jiuxin led Meng Chuan and Ta Gu through Eternal Tower. “We have to carry out the ritual for Brother Eastcalm to join Eternal Tower. Therefore, we will head to the eighth level of Eternal Tower.”

The eighth level of Eternal Tower was a very important place. Guests were forbidden entry.

In a hall on the eighth floor.

The hall was octagonal. It was about 300 feet wide and 3,000 feet tall. Countless runes were carved on the ceiling and walls.

“Once you join Eternal Tower, you have to abide by Eternal Tower’s rules.” Chi Jiuxin handed a golden book to Meng Chuan. “Brother Eastcalm, read through the rules inside.”

“Okay.” Meng Chuan took it and began reading.

Ancestral Master Archean Eon was a high-ranking member of Eternal Tower. Meng Chuan was naturally familiar with this set of rules. The so-called rules were mainly to ensure that Eternal Tower could do business fairly. As Eternal Tower members, they couldn’t rely on their status to affect Eternal Tower’s operations.

The other restrictions on members weren’t too great. Eternal Tower was more particular about fair transactions. It was the same for their members.

“No problem.” Meng Chuan nodded and closed the golden book.

“The rules of Eternal Tower are considered very lax compared to the other top factions,” said Ta Gu with a smile. “The core mission of Eternal Tower is to do business.”

“I heard that Eternal Tower covers almost every river zone?” asked Meng Chuan.

“There are still 19 river zones that we can’t penetrate,” said Ta Gu. “The other river zones have river zone headquarters.”

Since he came from the Shura Realm, Ta Gu knew more than Meng Chuan.

“Brother Eastcalm, since you have no objections, let’s begin the ritual,” said Chi Jiuxin. “In a while, you will personally promise to abide by the 99 Eternal Tower rules with the Eye of Eternal as a witness and become a member of Eternal Tower.”

Meng Chuan nodded. “Alright.”

“Then, let’s begin.” Only then did Chi Jiuxin activate the runic array formation on the hall’s walls. Following that, he and Ta Gu immediately left the hall.

The door closed, leaving Meng Chuan alone in the hall.

Meng Chuan looked up and saw a vortex appear at the top of the hall. A huge eye appeared in the vortex.

Eye of Eternal. Meng Chuan’s heart jolted.

The huge eye had a golden iris as it looked down.

Facing it, Meng Chuan felt tiny.

According to Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s records, even Seventh Tribulation Eminences had limited lifespans. Therefore, the Eye of Eternal was the one actually in charge of Eternal Tower’s operations. Eternal Tower had existed for hundreds of millions of years. The Eye of Eternal remained in constant existence through the connection between the River of Spacetime headquarters and the river zone headquarters. It was capable of observing each river zone headquarters simultaneously.

It had all sorts of unimaginable abilities. Ancestral Master Archean Eon treated it as a Seventh Tribulation Eminence with an eternal lifespan.

“Archean Eon Realm, City Lord Eastcalm, Meng Chuan. Are you willing to abide by Eternal Tower’s 99 rules?” The Eye of Eternal filled the sky above the hall as it looked down at Meng Chuan.

Words appeared in front of Meng Chuan. They were the rules he had seen in the book.

“I’m willing to abide by Eternal Tower’s 99 rules and become a member of Eternal Tower,” said Meng Chuan solemnly.

“With you being at the Fifth Tribulation realm at such a young age, I’m looking forward to seeing Archean Eon Realm produce another Seventh Tribulation Eminence,” said the Eye of Eternal from above.

Meng Chuan’s heart skipped a beat.

Young Fifth Tribulation Eminence? Young?

Did the Eye of Eternal discern my age at a glance? That’s right. Ancestral Master Archean Eon treated it as a Seventh Tribulation Eminence. It isn’t strange for it to have all sorts of unimaginable abilities. Seeing through my age is nothing surprising.

Hum.

Golden threads gathered in the hall and condensed into a golden token. On it was the word ‘Eastcalm,’ which landed in Meng Chuan’s hand.

Meng Chuan knew that this was his Eternal Tower identity token. The moment he held it, he felt that he could control it perfectly. This was because it was condensed using Meng Chuan’s aura.

With the token, he could contact the river zone headquarters.

Whoosh.

Following that, the mysterious power rapidly receded. The Eye of Eternal glanced at Meng Chuan once more before completely disappearing.

The Eye of Eternal had seen generations of Seventh Tribulation Eminences. Thus, it didn’t care much about geniuses unless they were at the Seventh Tribulation realm. It was only because Meng Chuan came from Archean Eon Realm and was a young Fifth Tribulation Eminence that it paid any notice to him.

I’ve become a member of Eternal Tower. Meng Chuan looked at the token in his hand. He could sense that the token could contact the river zone headquarters and gather more information whenever he needed to.

Ordinary member: City Lord Eastcalm, Meng Chuan.

Homeworld: Goddess River Zone, Three Bay River System, Archean Eon Realm.

Strength: Fifth Tribulation realm

Contribution: Zero

I can find many manuals and treasures at a river zone headquarters. Meng Chuan tested out his token and was shocked.

Eternal Tower was the largest transaction ground in the River of Spacetime. In terms of heritage and treasures, it was one of the best in the River of Spacetime.

Many special treasures were very rare. They were not sold to outsiders. Only Eternal Tower members could purchase them.

Eternal Tower members were also divided into different levels.

There were different categories of treasures that could be bought at the Fifth Tribulation realm. One could buy them with Outer Realm Essence Crystals.

More treasures could be bought at the Sixth Tribulation realm, including the Void Catalog. One only needed to pay Outer Realm Essence Crystals to buy them.

The purchasing breadth of a Seventh Tribulation realm continued to increase.

Apart from one’s strength and status being considered, the other factor was their contribution.

One could purchase any treasure with their Eternal Tower contribution points.

Basic-level Eternal Token: Exchanged using 300,000 contribution points. One could buy many treasures with a basic-level Eternal Token.

In fact, a basic-level Eternal Token could be sold to outsiders. This was also a way for outsiders to buy top-notch treasures. The expenditure was deducted from the members’ contributions.

An intermediate-level Eternal Token could be exchanged for one million contribution points.

Advanced-level Eternal Tokens could be exchanged for three million contribution points. This was also the most valuable item in Eternal Tower.

Eternal Tower members could use their contribution points to exchange for various treasures. They could also exchange for basic-level Eternal Tokens to sell to non-members.

My current contribution points are zero. Meng Chuan mocked himself. If I relied on myself, I really don’t know how many years it would take me to accumulate 300,000 contribution points.

According to Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s records, if a Sixth Tribulation Eminence worked hard in Eternal Tower’s service, they would have a chance of earning 300,000 contribution points. In fact, most Sixth Tribulation Eminences failed to accrue 300,000 contribution points after working for Eternal Tower their entire lives.

It was very difficult for a Fifth Tribulation Eminence like Meng Chuan to earn tens of thousands of contribution points.

Therefore, the only way to buy a Void Catalog volume in the short term is to obtain a basic-level Eternal Token. Meng Chuan scanned through the information about all the different treasures. There was lots of information regarding the Void Catalog. As the number one ultimate void lineage manual in the River of Spacetime, one suspected to be created by an Eternal existence, it was naturally extremely expensive.

Each of the Void Catalog’s three volumes contained different aspects of the void.

A single volume required 300,000 contribution points. One could exchange for a single volume using a basic-level Eternal Token. For members at the Sixth Tribulation or above, 300,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals could be exchanged for one volume. After exchanging for it, one had to read it immediately; they weren’t allowed to take it out of the Eternal Tower headquarters.

Meng Chuan didn’t hesitate. With a flip of his hand, he took out the basic-level Eternal Token. A wisp of Power of Essence Soul seeped into the basic-level Eternal Token. The aura of the basic-level Eternal Token immediately intensified, causing the entire Eternal Tower to tremble.

Buzz—

Waves enveloped Meng Chuan.

“I wish to buy the third volume of the Void Catalog,” said Meng Chuan.
