Archean Eon Art - Chapter 530
Chapter 530 Demon Sage Passageway
“I don’t know.” Meng Chuan shook his head gently. Although he had a lot of knowledge after roaming the outer realm, Supremacy-level (Demon Sage-level) passageways were still legends. “This passageway at Luo Tang Pass is already 69.5 kilometers wide. From its size, it might be a demon sage-level passageway.” “Then we can only try,” said Luo Tang.
Meng Chuan flew to Luo Tang’s side and carefully protected her. The two of them arrived near the World Entrance.
The surrounding Godfiends and demon servants couldn’t see Meng Chuan and Luo Tang. The duo didn’t want to cause too great a commotion.
“If I can enter, then a demon sage can enter and exit as well.” Luo Tang extended her right hand and reached into the World Entrance.
Huh? Luo Tang’s heart tightened when she saw her right hand reach into the tunnel. Meng Chuan became even more solemn.
Following that, Luo Tang took a step forward and entered the tunnel.
Luo Tang looked at Meng Chuan. “It’s a demon sage passageway.”
This scene proved everything. Human Creation Supremacies could easily pass; likewise, demon sages could easily pass through it as well.
“It has ultimately appeared. A demon sage passageway.” Meng Chuan was very calm. He had seized every opportunity in the outer realm to cultivate just so that he was prepared for this final battle.
At that moment, many figures appeared in the Demon Realm. However, both sides had hidden themselves, preventing the other party from seeing them.
Swoosh.
Luo Tang retreated.
“How are the restrictions on this demon sage passageway?” asked Meng Chuan.
“It’s easy to pass through it. The restrictions are also negligible. If I pass through this passageway alone, I can maintain maximum speed,” said Luo Tang solemnly. “It can probably allow a group of demon sages to enter simultaneously. If a group of demon sages work together, they will definitely set up an array formation. We have to think of a way to set up an array formation first.”
Meng Chuan nodded. “Let’s wait and see if there are any changes.”
Luo Tang looked at Meng Chuan confusedly. “What do you mean?”
“Will a second demon sage passageway appear? Or will a larger World Entrance appear?” commented Meng Chuan calmly.
“An even larger World Entrance?” Luo Tang couldn’t help but say, “According to the dossiers, if two inhabited worlds are close to each other, they will produce one Supremacy-level passageway at most.”
“Let’s wait and see,” said Meng Chuan.
Since Luo Tang Pass would probably become the main battlefield for the demon invasion, Meng Chuan and company naturally decided to relocate all of Luo Tang Pass’s residents. If they didn’t, there would be a disastrous number of casualties if the battle’s aftershocks spread for hundreds of kilometers.
Days passed.
No second demon sage passageway appeared in the human world! There was also no larger World Entrance.
Luo Tang Pass was the only demon sage entrance.
This also made sense. After all, Archean Eon Realm and the demon world were both middle-level worlds. If two middle-level worlds were close to each other in the River of Spacetime, it was indeed possible for a demon sage passageway to appear. However, it was already very rare for one to appear. Two? That was even more unlikely.
Luo Tang Pass.
One Supremacy after another arrived at Luo Tang Pass.
Ordinary Godfiends and demon servants had left, leaving not a single mortal around. This would be the final battlefield of the warwhich had lasted for more than nine centuries.
“This is the final battlefield.” Xu Yingwu stood on the city wall and looked at the massive World Entrance that was more than 50 kilometers wide. “This nine-century war ultimately needs to end! If we win, the demons’ plans will completely fail. If we lose, it will be a calamity for our Archean Eon Realm.”
“Imperial Lord Eastcalm has the strength of an Imperial Lord. Together with the treasures left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon, we will definitely win this battle,” said the Demon Annihilation Guild Master, Jing Fei. “I trust Meng Chuan too,” said Bai Yaoyue.
Luo Tang Pass had now become a place where Supremacies gathered. They gathered and conversed in groups.
Boom!
Not far from the world entrance, an array flag stabbed into the ground.
Meng Chuan and Qin Wu floated side by side.
Qin Wu looked at the World Entrance. “It’s been over 900 years. It’s finally time for the final battle.”
“Master, don’t worry. We humans will only be victorious. We definitely won’t lose,” said Meng Chuan.
“We can’t help you. We can only rely on you.” Qin Wu looked at Meng Chuan. “Choose Archean Mountain’s treasures carefully. Bring the ones that can help you.”
“Understood.” Meng Chuan nodded slightly and turned to look at the World Entrance. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
Because of Emperor Roc’s pursuit, he had been hiding in the Chaos Hole and not counterattacking. One of the reasons was to hide his strength. His quick escape could be explained away as using a single-use talisman. However, if he were to engage in a head-on battle, he would completely expose his strength.
Therefore, Meng Chuan had been hiding his strength, letting the demons underestimate his strength. In this critical final battle, he was going to deal the demons a ruthless blow.
“Meng Chuan, in the past few meetings, I keep having the feeling that something is wrong with you,” blurted Qin Wu suddenly. “In the past, I felt like you had a lively and natural aura. You were carefree and uninhibited, and you liked painting. But now, I feel like you’re a deep pool without any waves. Let me ask you, do you still paint?” Meng Chuan was slightly stunned. Yes, it had been a long time since he painted. He couldn’t even lift a brush.
Qin Wu looked at Meng Chuan seriously. “How long has it been since you smiled?”
“I know my problem.” Meng Chuan nodded slightly and said solemnly, “Master, don’t worry.”
“It’s good that you know.” Qin Wu didn’t say anything else. Meng Chuan pondered. A hundred years into his cultivation inside the Chaos Hole, he discovered the effects the Chaos Hole had on his Essence Soul and mind. His entire mind gradually became dead silent. It was because of this mental state that Meng Chuan had created Saber of Nirvana.
Back then, he had decided to cultivate for another 20 years before leaving the Chaos Hole.
To his surprise, he was hunted down by Emperor Roc, forcing him to hide in the Chaos Hole’s depths. He had spent over 200 years cultivating inside.
After such a long period of time, the Chaos Hole’s influence on his Essence Soul and mind had become greater and greater. His mind had become deathly still. Without feeling touched, how could he be motivated to paint? He didn’t know what to paint. Meng Chuan also knew that this wasn’t right. He only persisted with his cultivation in the Chaos Hole because he needed to increase his strength as much as possible so that he could deal with the war.
I have to leave the Chaos Hole after the final battle ends. Even if I sacrifice all my treasures and give up that true body, I have to escape the Chaos Hole’s influence.
His deathly still mind allowed him to create Saber of Nirvana easily. However, as he cultivated this path further, Meng Chuan became even more certain that it was a stray path. Thus, he didn’t use his Saber of Nirvana to cultivate his dantian’s Chaos Hole, nor did he use it to cultivate his body. However, his mental state was already greatly affected.
After the war, I must not study Saber of Nirvana anymore. Although Meng Chuan’s mental state had changed, he knew very well what was right and what was wrong.
The Demon Realm.
Imperial Lord Starquix, Lady Blackmoon, and Emperor Roc sat in front of a mountain. They drank and looked at the massive World Entrance that was more than 50 kilometers wide.
The demons had also confirmed that this was a demon sage passageway.
“A demon sage passageway.” Imperial Lord Starquix was rather excited. “A demon sage passageway has finally appeared. Even if Meng Chuan is an Imperial Lord, how long will he take to cultivate? How strong can he be? He can’t stop us.”
Although Lady Blackmoon was delighted, she still said, “The human race has definitely been extremely cautious ever since the demon sage passageway appeared. I believe they will permit Meng Chuan to use many of Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s treasures! Meng Chuan will definitely set up a large array at Luo Tang Pass. With the array formation and many other treasures, he will be able to unleash strength far beyond his normal.” “External objects are ultimately external objects. How much can his strength increase?”. asked Imperial Lord Starquix confidently.
“Although we have hope of winning in a head-on attack, the best solution is to get rid of Meng Chuan first.” Emperor Roc held a cup of wine and said softly, “Let’s get rid of Meng Chuan first before we send our forces into the demon sage passageway. That’s the safest way.”
“How do we kill him?” asked Lady Blackmoon. “Didn’t you say that Meng Chuan’s outer realm body is hiding in the Chaos Hole’s depths thanks to a special treasure?”
“Since the demon sage passageway has appeared, it’s worth paying a greater price,” said Emperor Roc. “I’m already at the Third Tribulation realm. I’ll think of a way to hire one of Ancient Magus River Zone’s Fourth Tribulation Eminences. When a Fourth Tribulation Eminence has a target’s true body, they can easily kill all the target’s avatars through karma. Even perfected Imperial Lords will die. Meng Chuan’s life level is lower than a perfected Imperial Lord’s.”
“Are you confident of hiring a Fourth Tribulation Eminence?” asked Imperial Lord Starquix.
“They can be hired with the appropriate price,” said Emperor Roc indifferently. Of course, it depended on who hired them. As a Third Tribulation Eminence, Emperor Roc could still hire a Fourth Tribulation Eminence.
