Chapter 655 - First Gathering at Nebula Palace
Chapter 655 First Gathering at Nebula Palace
Meng Chuan focused on his cultivation. As he only needed to obey Deputy Hall Lord Blazing Sun at White Avian Hall, there was nothing to disturb him. However, he received an invitation after cultivating on Clear Spring Island for more than 20 years. Lord of Avian Mountain from White Avian Hall’s third hall has grasped a spatial law and is about to hold a celebration ceremony at Nebula Palace? Meng Chuan was astonished. Ever since he joined White Avian Hall, he hadn’t participated in any activities. As he wasn’t familiar with the other Sixth Tribulation Eminences, he hadn’t attended any gatherings at Nebula Palace. However, this was a large-scale celebration.
The next day, Meng Chuan naturally sent a thought through the Nebula Token and headed to Nebula Palace.
Boom!
Nebula Palace’s laws were mysterious. After descending, one could gather their strength and form a body and Essence Soul. Meng Chuan landed on the vast square at the periphery of Nebula Palace and was somewhat astonished.
Tribulation Eminences had a limited number of physical body avatars. For example, Physical Body Tribulation Eminences only had two true bodies. This was limited by the laws of spacetime. However, one could form a body in Nebula Palace with a thought. This showed how special Nebula Palace was.
The Cang Alliance Space only allowed one to condense an ordinary embodiment without any combat strength. Yet, Nebula Palace allowed one to condense a body here.
Furthermore, the cost of cultivating an avatar at the Physical Body Tribulation realm was very high. A Fifth Tribulation Eminence’s body required thousands of cubes. A Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s body required tens of thousands of cubes. However, creating such a body at Nebula Palace didn’t require any effort. It could be condensed with a thought. Of course, the prerequisite was that one had already figured out such a physical body formulation.
I’ll head to the third branch hall first. Meng Chuan walked across the square. There were many palaces in Nebula Palace. They were vast, and the various factions had demarcated their territories.
White Avian Hall occupied nearly 20% of the area. Meng Chuan naturally knew about this. I’m here. Meng Chuan arrived at White Avian Hall’s third branch hall. The hall was bustling with noise and excitement. At a glance, hundreds of Eminences were already seated.
These seats also have their differences. Although Meng Chuan wasn’t familiar with most Sixth Tribulation Eminences, he had long gathered the intelligence on White Avian Hall’s members. He could discern the Sixth Tribulation Eminences’ identities at a glance.
The seats in the hall were arranged in a semicircle around the hall. The first hundred-plus seats were reserved for peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences. Ordinary Sixth Tribulation Eminences sat behind, in the second and third rows.
Meng Chuan naturally walked to the back and casually sat down in the fifth row.
“Brother Eastcalm?” A Sixth Tribulation Eminence greeted him warmly.
Meng Chuan smiled and replied, “Palace Lord Star Sand.”
This Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s name was Palace Lord Star Sand. He was the strongest expert of the Star Sand lifeforms in the River of Spacetime. His body was condensed from starlight sand, and the sand slowly flowed around him. He smiled brightly. “I heard of your name some time ago, but I’ve only gotten to meet you today.”
“Brother Eastcalm, I heard that you are acquainted with Deputy Hall Lord Blazing Sun, allowing you to head to the Valley of Spacetime directly. We are extremely envious.”
“We can only be envious.”
“Brother Eastcalm, are you from Goddess River Zone? I’m from Bone Chasing River Zone. It’s very close to Goddess River Zone.”
The surrounding Sixth Tribulation Eminences chatted with Meng Chuan. They were rather enthusiastic. They were also ordinary Sixth Tribulation Eminences. They were willing to befriend an Essence Soul Sixth Tribulation Eminence with strong background and backing.
Furthermore, according to White Avian Hall’s rules, they had to help each other as members of White Avian Hall’s third branch. There were too many members in White Avian Hall. According to the regional division, neighboring river zones were grouped together. There were a total of eight branches.
Hall Lord White Avian personally led the first branch. It had the most members, and it was in the River of Spacetime’s central region. The other seven branch halls were led by seven half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences. They had over 1,000 members. They were the other seven areas in the River of Spacetime.
As a member of Goddess River Zone, Meng Chuan was assigned to the third branch. “A few days ago, our battle with Six Directions Heaven in the East Abyss River region was really tragic. The battle was chaotic. Even a Seventh Tribulation Eminences and several half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminences appeared. My outer realm true body died in battle during the process. After the battle, the Patroller returned my weapons and treasures to me. They even compensated me with 30,000 cubes of Outer Realm Essence Crystals. Unfortunately, I require more than 30,000 cubes to recultivate my outer realm true body. I suffered a terrible loss.”
“All of us suffered a loss during the battle at East Abyss River. Six Directions Heaven launched a sneak attack, fully prepared. After the Seventh Tribulation Eminence-Lord of the East Abyss-was heavily injured, he requested for help. White Avian Hall sent a large number of experts to reinforce us, but they failed to clinch victory in the end. There’s no way to replenish the losses they suffered from the battle. It’s not bad that they compensated you with 30,000 Outer Realm Essence Crystals.
“Lord of the East Abyss is still a little weak. If he had the strength of a peak Seventh Tribulation Eminence, I believe Six Directions Heaven wouldn’t dare to take over the entire East Abyss River.”
“Lord of the East Abyss… It’s a long story.”
“He’s quite petty.”
“For example, our Sect Master Mental Demon and Hall Master Azure Dragon are much more generous. We have never suffered any losses following the Sect Master and Hall Master Azure Dragon.” As the Sixth Tribulation Eminences chatted, Meng Chuan mainly listened. After all, he didn’t accept any missions from White Avian Hall, so he knew very little about such matters.
“He’s here.”
“Sect Master is here.” The lively hall gradually fell silent as three figures walked over.
Meng Chuan took a closer look.
Walking in the middle was a smiling boy. In fact, he was the leader of the third branchSect Master Mental Demon. He was also a half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminence. He grasped the Immeasurable law. The difficulty of dealing with a half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminence depended on the laws they grasped.
Once one grasped the Immeasurable law, they could be said to be immortal. In terms of head-on combat, Sect Master Mental Demon was ranked in the River of Spacetime’s top 100. However, in terms of life-preservation means, he was ranked in the top 20.
Sect Master Mental Demon. Flanking his sides are King Hunch Ridge and Lord of Avian Mountain. Meng Chuan examined them. King Hunch Ridge was a single-horned elder with an octagonal outer shell on his back. Lord of Avian Mountain was a white and fat man. His skin was very fair and supple. These two had grasped a spatial law. They were peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences, and they were strong enough to exchange blows with Seventh Tribulation Eminences.
As for ordinary Sixth Tribulation Eminences and peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences, they were unable to fight back against Seventh Tribulation Eminences.
“Everyone.” Sect Master Mental Demon-who looked like a child-sat at the main seat of honor. His voice reached every corner of the hall, and his voice naturally carried joy. “Apart from King Hunch Ridge, our White Avian Hall’s third branch has produced another Deputy Patroller. It’s none other than Brother Avian Mountain.”
Only peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences had the right to take on the responsibility of Deputy Patroller.
Meng Chuan sat in a corner and raised his cup with the crowd.
During the entire celebration, Meng Chuan only focused when Lord of Avian Mountain began explaining the spatial law he had comprehended.
The lecture continued for half a day, and all the Sixth Tribulation Eminences listened carefully.
Only then did the pudgy Lord of Avian Mountain smile. “After saying so much, I will need to showcase it a little to make it more comprehensible. Whoever wishes to spar with me, please come to the hall.”
“Brother Avian Mountain, I’m looking forward to receiving some pointers.” A thin figure in the front row stood up and walked to the center of the hall.
Anyone who dared to challenge a Deputy Patroller had to be a peak Sixth Tribulation Eminence. It would be meaningless if the strength difference was too great.
The thin figure’s blood-red eyes were filled with anticipation. He also wanted to comprehend a spatial law. He could gain a deeper understanding of spatial laws by engaging in direct combat.
“Don’t hold back. Attack with all your might.” The thin figure stared at Lord of Avian Mountain. In the past, they had been on par, but the gap between them had now widened.
“You won’t be able to last more than a few blows if I attack with all my might.” The white and fat Lord of Avian Mountain walked to the center of the hall. “Come at me.”
The thin figure vanished into thin air.
A huge illusory head appeared and attempted to devour Lord of Avian Mountain. The surrounding scenery began to distort.
Lord of Avian Mountain extended his right hand, and his fair palm pressed down slightly.
Silently
The surrounding area was suddenly crushed into a piece of paper. There was a thin figure pattern on the piece of paper. The paper eventually dissipated, and the thin figure pattern also vanished. Meng Chuan’s pupils constricted when he saw this. He had studied the Void Catalog for so long, so he could naturally tell that Lord of Avian Mountain had used the simple Void Pressure. It crushed all the layers of space into a single layer. Furthermore, it erased the ‘height’ of this layer of space, changing it from a three-dimensional space to a flat surface.
After becoming a flat surface, all living beings that relied on space would die.
One had to grasp a spatial law completely in order to control space so wantonly.
