Chapter 666 Rejection and Acceptance
A large black s.h.i.+p silently floated in the dark void outside Changpo Planet. Three leaders were standing in a hall on the s.h.i.+p, staring at the tiny Changpo Planet in the distance.
“Every Eternal Tower branch has connections with the headquarters in the River of s.p.a.cetime. They also have the Eye of Supervision to monitor the surroundings,” said a gray-robed leader. “Once we approach Eternal Tower, we will be discovered by the Eternal Tower branch. Although it’s unlikely for a meddlesome Sixth Tribulation Eminence to appear, an accident might happen if we are slow. We have to be fast. The faster we wipe out Changpo Planet, the better.”
“The owner of Changpo Planet has taken the initiative to deactivate the array formation and let us in. Our operation will be very easy,” said the black stone giant in a low voice.
“We are going to slaughter tens of thousands of cultivators. Many of them are Imperial Lords, and some also have some life-preservation items. They will definitely struggle and resist. If we aren’t prepared, accidents will happen,” instructed the gray-robed leader indifferently. “Before we take action, do one last round of checks to see if we are ready.”
The two companions nodded slightly. This was the last preparation before the attack. The order was immediately given.
Teams were residing in the black s.h.i.+p. Each team had at least one Tribulation Eminence.
We’re going to plunder and slaughter? I wonder where it is this time. In one of the teams, a red-robed, three-eyed cultivator listened to the leader’s orders and muttered silently to himself, I hope I don’t encounter any meddlesome Eminences. As long as I survive my days of slavery, I can bring the treasure map back.
Imperial Lords needed to offer their service for 1,000 years, but they rarely encountered such large-scale operations in 1,000 years.
“Once we exit the wars.h.i.+p, immediately form the formation with me as the leader. Listen to my orders.” A snake-scaled elder scanned the Imperial Lords.
“Yes.” The Imperial Lords and servants were all very respectful. The red-robed, three-eyed cultivator was extremely respectful as well.
An hour later.
The black s.h.i.+p silently arrived half a billion kilometers away from Changpo Planet. This place was outside the Eternal Tower branch’s monitoring range. Following that, the s.h.i.+p suddenly traversed half a billion kilometers and teleported to the sky above Eternal Tower.
“What is that?”
“This s.h.i.+p!”
As a bustling trading ground, there were many cultivators on the streets and in the numerous shops. There were even some Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords inside. Now, all of them looked up at the black s.h.i.+p in shock.
“There’s a defensive array formation on Changpo Planet that isolates the void. It’s impossible to teleport in.”
“Unless Cave Lord Changpo deliberately permitted them.”
Not good.
Some knowledgeable cultivators immediately realized that something was amiss.
At the same moment the black s.h.i.+p appeared in the sky above Changpo Planet, an illusory, huge eye condensed above Eternal Tower’s tallest building. This was the Eye of Supervision. It could appraise everything, and it could also ensure that the person in charge of Eternal Tower was unable to carry out corrupt practices and damage Eternal Tower’s interests.
For example, the construction of a river zone headquarters was very special. The Eye of Eternal could descend a portion of its power. Therefore, anyone below the Seventh Tribulation realm would be courting death if they attacked a river zone headquarters.
However, an Eternal Tower branch was too weak. The Eye of Supervision was good at appraisal, but its strength was inferior to a Fifth Tribulation Eminence.
“Members of Black Fiend Hall.” The giant illusory eye stared at the s.h.i.+p. At such a close distance, it instantly locked onto life auras and confirmed the ident.i.ties of the Fifth Tribulation Eminences, Fourth Tribulation Eminences, and the other Black Fiend Hall members. “Cave Lord Changpo has already betrayed Eternal Tower by allowing so many members of Black Fiend Hall to enter.”
A piece of news immediately reached Eternal Tower’s River of s.p.a.cetime headquarters. Following that, Eternal Tower immediately issued a mission to the Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the surrounding river zones. Although it took some time to describe, Eternal Tower’s reaction happened in an instant.
After the headquarters issued the order, a group of Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords charged out from the black s.h.i.+p.
“It’s beginning.” The wrinkled-faced Cave Lord Changpo stood on a distant mountain peak and watched everything coldly. He controlled the array formations on Changpo Planet. These array formations were meant to protect the cultivators on Changpo Planet, but they were now used to work in concert with Black Fiend Hall to slaughter cultivators.
A white-browed elder sat in front of a cauldron. The flames in the cauldron reflected on his face.
Boom!
The interior of the cauldron changed. The cauldron’s walls increased from nine holes to ten holes. There was also a dark-red star in the new hole, where black flames rose from it. These dark-red stars were refined from Darkstars. With an additional hole, the cauldron’s flames were stronger.
Huh? The white-browed elder sensed something
“Cave Lord Changpo committed betrayal. Black Fiend Hall forces appeared on Changpo Planet. Tens of thousands of cultivators are in danger?” The white-browed elder shook his head slightly. “A world rises and falls. A planet like Changpo Planet has also ushered in a calamity.”
He had seen too much in his long lifespan.
His homeworld gradually gave birth to civilization from a barbaric era. From the tribal era to the dynasty era, he had personally experienced it all. Tribes had once been destroyed, and he led his tribe to prominence and established a dynasty… He was close to the end of his lifespan.
In order to cultivate in seclusion, he successfully created the Imperial Lord path in his homeworld. He was the first Imperial Lord in the history of his homeworld. However, when he came out of seclusion, his dynasty was destroyed after more than 100 years. He found his remaining bloodline descendants and completely unified the world, establis.h.i.+ng a true empire.
He was the first Imperial Lord and first Tribulation Eminence in his homeworld’s cultivation system.
In the outer realm, he was very ordinary. This was because he had cultivated for 1,800 years before becoming an Imperial Lord. He only reached the Tribulation realm after cultivating for 8,000 years. He only reached the Sixth Tribulation realm after cultivating for more than 50,000 years.
However, he allowed his homeworld to become a middle-level world.
He was an existence that countless juniors in his homeworld idolized.
The white-browed elder sighed at the impending deaths of tens of thousands of cultivators, but he only felt pity for them. He had never thought of saving them. Countless lives have their own destinies. I’m only a fish in the River of Destiny. I should follow its rules if I want to live in this river.
…
Many Sixth Tribulation Eminences refused to help. The owner of Changpo Planet had taken the initiative to betray Eternal Tower, and the tens of thousands of cultivators on Changpo Planet couldn’t find a Sixth Tribulation Eminence to back them up.
But in Archean Eon Realm.
The sun was s.h.i.+ning brightly. Meng Chuan and his wife, Liu Qiyue, were walking through the greenery. In the distance, a white rabbit was sniffing the gra.s.s. The couple smiled at the little rabbit.
“An’er’s cultivation has been stuck at the Third Tribulation realm all this while. He plans on challenging himself in the outer realm, but you objected to it?” questioned Liu Qiyue.
“Earth Cloud Mystic Realm is large enough and has a good environment. It’s enough for one to reach the Fifth Tribulation realm,” said Meng Chuan. “What can a Third Tribulation Eminence do even if he goes to the outer realm? If he can’t reach the Fourth Tribulation realm in Archean Eon Realm and Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s environment, I think he shouldn’t go out and bring trouble to himself.”
Liu Qiyue looked at Meng Chuan. “You mean to let him out after he reaches the Fourth Tribulation realm?”
Meng Chuan wanted to say something in detail, but his expression suddenly changed slightly. He had obtained an Eternal Tower mission.
Changpo Planet? With a thought, Meng Chuan gained knowledge about the entire mission’s intricacies. The bounty for this mission was much higher than the one offered for Ingenious Dharma Planet. This was because the nature of Cave Lord Changpo’s betrayal made things even worse. Hence, the mission bounty had also increased.
100,000 contribution points? Two s.p.a.cetime Teleportation Talismans for the return trip are thrown in as well? Meng Chuan understood the urgency of the situation.
For example, if Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma took the initiative to resist on Ingenious Dharma Planet, she could stall for time. However, countless cultivators would be ma.s.sacred due to the betrayal of Changpo Planet’s owner.
I’ll take it.
Meng Chuan was at the cusp of grasping a spatial law. Thus, he hoped that the pressure from the outside world would be greater. He wasn’t afraid of threats. Furthermore, it was almost his turn to obtain the Void Trileaf Flower in the Valley of s.p.a.cetime.
What powerful karma.
The moment he accepted the mission, karma formed.
Meng Chuan could also sense the distant location of Changpo Planet. The tens of thousands of cultivators were connected to Meng Chuan by karma. This was because the lives of tens of thousands of Supremacies depended on Meng Chuan’s will. The karmic connection shocked Meng Chuan. He could clearly lock onto Changpo Planet’s location.
Time to go!
An Essence Soul avatar instantly left Archean Eon Realm. Following that, he used a s.p.a.cetime Teleportation Talisman and headed straight for Changpo Planet.
