Chapter 679: Darkstar Guild’s Attack
A black-robed, white-haired Meng Chuan appeared in a dark void of Taidong River Zone.
I’m out. Meng Chuan looked around him as his consciousness quickly spread out through the spatial fluctuations.
It dripped like a drop of water, and a ripple spread out in all directions. The area affected was relatively small. However, the countless droplets formed countless ripples. The neighboring circles interfered with each other, and the range of the ripples increased exponentially.
The spatial influence was much more complicated.
Whoosh.
Meng Chuan carefully sensed the area around him as the range expanded rapidly. It spread across a river system, and the further it went, the more blurry it became. He could only sense its general outline.
The limit of what I can vaguely sense is a river zone. Meng Chuan vaguely sensed the 3,257 river systems in Taidong River Zone.
Spacetime Token.
With the help of the rare treasure, the Spacetime Token, Meng Chuan sent a wisp of his Power of Essence Soul into the Spacetime Token’s profound array formation. Only by grasping the spatial law could he barely use it. With a thought, the 9,999 chains in the array formation immediately triggered the miniature River of Spacetime. The spacetime power in the pocket universe rippled out from the Spacetime Token.
Whoosh.
The spacetime powers in the pocket universe resonated with the River of Spacetime in the outside world.
The vast River of Spacetime had countless tributaries. Everything was reflected in his heart.
Is this the entire universe? Meng Chuan was somewhat shocked.
Although he had seen the Spacetime Dominion Map recorded by Ancestral Master Archean Eon, the feeling of seeing the entire universe with his own eyes was thousands of times more shocking.
All river systems in the river zone were reflected in his heart. Meng Chuan could vaguely sense the places that emitted powerful energies in a river system: Supreme Yang Star, Supreme Yin Star, Dark Chaos Hole, inhabited worlds, cave abodes with powerful array formations, perilous lands in the universe, ancient ruins…
Powerful lifeforms like Fifth Tribulation Eminences could also sense them, but it was difficult to sense the weaker energies.
More than 100 river systems have been completely sealed off. Even I can’t enter? Meng Chuan realized that there were more than 100 of such river systems in the universe. They were protected by spacetime barriers, making them impregnable. He couldn’t penetrate them even with the Spacetime Token. He could only observe them from afar.
They seem to be related to Eighth Tribulation Eminences.
Meng Chuan quickly discovered something. Nine of these sealed and protected river systems are related to Dragon Ancestor. One is related to Daolord Evodia, and three are related to Phoenix Ancestor. As expected of Eighth Tribulation Eminences. They make an entire river system their own territory. Even Seventh Tribulation Eminences can’t approach them.
Senior Fei Yu had said that anyone below the Eighth Tribulation realm wouldn’t be able to find his homeworld, Fei Yu World.
Meng Chuan now had a clearer understanding of what he meant.
Oh? Meng Chuan looked ahead.
An elder with a walking stick appeared out of thin air. Following that, four figures appeared beside him.
An elder with a walking stick, a handsome man, a treant, a winged woman, and a water lifeform.
“Darkstar Guild?” Meng Chuan recognized them at a glance.
The five people in front of him were all famous top Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the River of Spacetime. Furthermore, they belonged to the Darkstar Guild.
The Darkstar Guild was very different from Black Fiend Hall. Black Fiend Hall was a massive faction with a long history. They had many members and wreaked havoc wantonly. They plundered everywhere, but they tried their best to avoid Sixth and Seventh Tribulation Eminences. They were like a pack of vicious wolves that hunted everywhere, only to avoid powerful enemies. Only by angering them would they surround and attack powerful enemies. However, the Darkstar Guild was different. The Darkstar Guild was more like a venomous snake. They didn’t attack easily.
Once they attacked, it was all for the sake of a great harvest. A venomous snake would flick out its tongue and deliver a single killing strike.
Their targets were mainly Sixth Tribulation Eminences. For the sake of treasures, the Darkstar Guild would even attack Seventh Tribulation Eminences at times. Of course, that was when Guild Master Darkstar personally took action.
I’ve been targeted by the Darkstar Guild? They arrived just five seconds after I left the Nine Trials Pagoda. From the looks of it, they have been monitoring me through karma. Meng Chuan immediately came to a realization. He could sense the universe through the Spacetime Token. It took a long time to describe, but it was actually just a moment, enough for the Darkstar Guild to arrive.
“Die!” The moment the five Darkstar Eminences appeared, they unleashed their killer moves.
A massive illusory array formation spanned five billion kilometers. The five Eminences attacked.
The handsome man had already transformed into a dazzling golden beam of light. This beam of light was billions of times more dazzling than the sun. Even an ordinary Tribulation Eminence could see it with their naked eyes.
The moment the golden light shone into their eyes, ordinary Tribulation Eminences would be reduced to dust. This was the power that came from fusing the Law of Light and the Law of Metal. The dazzling golden light had already spread through the array formation, illuminating countless runes on the array formation.
There was no emotion in the treant’s eyes. As he stood there, dazzling lightning erupted. The treant’s body—filled with vitality—was surrounded by lightning. Green lightning fused with the array formation.
The winged woman spread her fiery-red wings. The flames on her wings wantonly erupted as a violent wind howled. The might of wind and fire gathered as the power of wind and fire spread into the array.
Around the water lifeform was boundless black water. Copious amounts of black water fused with the array formation and spread out along the runes.
The elder with the walking stick gently tapped the walking stick in his hand. Thick, turbid gas appeared in every corner of the array formation that spanned five billion kilometers. After the other four Eminences’ powers fused with the array formation, they perfectly fused with the turbid gas. Thus, the Land of Samsara descended.
Rumble~
Impressive. Meng Chuan sighed in amazement as he looked at his surroundings. A 50-billion-kilometer area had already transformed into a Land of Samsara. The turbulent Samsara Array Formation surrounded him, suppressing him as it attempted to crush him.
The pressure in the Land of Samsara was extremely terrifying. At the Sixth Tribulation realm, only peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences could withstand it.
Meng Chuan was clearly at the peak of the Sixth Tribulation realm.
Hum.
With Meng Chuan at the center, the surrounding 50,000 kilometers resisted the Land of Samsara’s pressure.
Absolute Space!
A spatial law controller had a limited range if they wanted to maintain maximum control over space. A 50,000-kilometer radius was the limit. If the range was greater, their control over space would constantly decrease.
“What?”
“He blocked it?”
The walking stick elder, the handsome man, the treant, the winged woman, and the churning black water felt their hearts palpitate.
Only when the five of them joined forces could they unleash Land of Samsara! This allowed the five of them to fight a peak Sixth Tribulation Eminence together. Their team was also one of the Darkstar Guild’s core teams. They originally believed that, even if City Lord Eastcalm didn’t die in the Land of Samsara with his Undying Body, he would be crushed into a lepton cluster and lose the ability to resist. Who knew that he could stand still and block the Land of Samsara’s suppression?
They had even planned for a scenario where City Lord Eastcalm had made preparations. He might strike first and use the Pupil of Darkness to ambush one of them. The other four could barely form a Land of Samsara. Even though their strength would be halved, it was enough to deal with City Lord Eastcalm.
Boom!
The Land of Samsara and Absolute Space collided. Booms constantly rang out, and Absolute Space was at a slight disadvantage.
But the controller of the spatial law had unpredictable movement techniques. He could fight them head-on.
“It’s Absolute Space!”
“Oh no, retreat!” The five of them knew that something was amiss. Their sneak attack was aimed at a top Sixth Tribulation Eminence, not a peak Sixth Tribulation Eminence.
Although they didn’t understand why a newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence like City Lord Eastcalm had grasped the spatial law, they knew that retreating was the wisest choice. This was because the five of them only had such strength when working together. A single flaw would result in them being defeated one by one.
As for peak Sixth Tribulation Eminences, they could perfectly grasp the situation. If they continued fighting, the five of them would only be at a disadvantage.
Furthermore, they had long known that City Lord Eastcalm had an Essence Soul mystic technique—Pupil of Darkness.
However, they realized that something was amiss. Meng Chuan had already used the Pupil of Darkness. For utmost confidence, he didn’t attack the entire group. Instead, he targeted the handsome man—who had transformed into a golden beam of light.
It’s the Pupil of Darkness. Just as the handsome man was about to retreat, a pair of dark eyes appeared in his mind.
In the past, the weak couldn’t look straight at him when he was in his golden light form. If they did, they would be reduced to ashes.
This time, he didn’t want to see the pair of eyes. However, he couldn’t hide from them. The pair of dark eyes drilled into his heart like a bottomless abyss. His consciousness couldn’t resist sinking into it.
“No—” The handsome man struggled with all his might, but he was no longer able to continue powering the array formation as he sank into oblivion.
The Land of Samsara’s array formation lost one person.
