Mountain Lord Moxie waved his hand, and the Valley of Spacetime’s illusory 15-layered structure appeared in front of him.
“The Valley of Spacetime is divided into 15 levels,” said Moxie. “Our White Avian Hall occupies four of the larger levels. I control the first level directly. The other three levels are controlled by other Tribulation Eminences. You can head to the outermost level and help keep an eye on the border with Six Directions Heaven.”
“Yes,” replied Meng Chuan immediately. The mission was indeed very simple.
Moxie nodded. “You may leave. Contact me through the Nebula Token if there’s anything important.” Meng Chuan bowed respectfully and flew away.
Moxie watched Meng Chuan leave. He didn’t care about the Sixth Tribulation Eminences waiting for Void Trileaf Flowers. As one of the top 100 Eminences in the River of Spacetime, why would he care about a newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence? To him, this was just a normal thing.
Moxie only accepted the mission of guarding the Valley of Spacetime for White Avian Hall. He couldn’t be bothered with other matters.
The Origin Realm’s forces are becoming stronger and stronger. As for me, I’m still at the half-step Seventh Tribulation realm. The gap between him and me is becoming wider and wider. Moxie sighed inwardly. He had a grudge against Origin Realm’s leader. Back when the other party established Origin Realm, Moxie had established the Land of Zero Karma. They were on par with each other.
Now, Origin Realm’s forces could compete with Six Directions Heaven and White Avian Hall. As an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence, the other party’s fame was widespread. He was also one of the top ten strongest in the entire River of Spacetime.
In comparison, Moxie was much inferior.
I have to perfect my physical formulation as soon as possible. I feel that I can succeed within 10,000 years. Moxie returned to his cave abode to continue cultivating.
Moxie spent 99% of his time cultivating while guarding the Valley of Spacetime. He only appeared when ushering newcomers, Void Trileaf Flowers were born, and when external factions invaded. He didn’t care about anything else.
Meng Chuan arrived at the Valley of Spacetime level where White Avian Hall and Six Directions Heaven bordered each other—the fifth level.
“Brother Eastcalm.”
Two figures flew over from afar to welcome Meng Chuan. One was a black-haired man with two soft feelers, while the other was a cyan-clothed woman-whose body was covered in flames.
“Brother Cang Li, Lady Feng Yu,” greeted Meng Chuan politely.
The cyan-clothed woman was one of the eight Sixth Tribulation Eminences of the phoenix race-Lady Feng Yu. The phoenixes were weaker than the dragons in this era. Although neither race had a Seventh Tribulation Eminence, the dragons had at least one half-step Seventh Tribulation Eminence.
However, Meng Chuan didn’t dare underestimate them.
Lady Feng Yu was also one of the top Sixth Tribulation Eminences. The phoenixes’ heritage far exceeded that of Ancestral Master Archean Eon, so who would dare to bully them? Furthermore, Phoenix Ancestor-an Eighth Tribulation Eminence-might still be alive.
Even if an Eighth Tribulation Eminence had disappeared for a billion years, they might still be very young considering the possibility of them time-traveling a billion years.
“This array formation is mainly controlled by me,” said the black-haired man, Cang Li, with a smile. “There’s no need for you and Sister Feng Yu to manage it. Set up a cave abode at Six Directions Heaven’s border and focus on your cultivation.”
“Thank you, Brother Cang Li,” said Meng Chuan.
Cang Li was an extremely famous Sixth Tribulation Eminence. He came from a low-level inhabited world, and he had forged his standing in the River of Spacetime one step at a time. He had even grasped three Sixth Tribulation laws.
He had even obtained an Eighth Tribulation Eminence’s treasure trove and moved it back to his homeworld. Most importantly, he had only cultivated for 30,000 years. Having grasped three Sixth Tribulation laws at such a young age made his chances of becoming a Seventh Tribulation Eminence very high. Meng Chuan was a Seventh Tribulation seedling
It was the same for Cang Li. Furthermore, Cang Li had no backing. He had attained his present accomplishments alone.
Hence, Meng Chuan was rather impressed.
“Set up a cave abode first. In a while, I’ll invite the Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the Valley of Spacetime for a gathering at Nebula Palace,” said Cang Li with a smile. The Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the Valley of Spacetime couldn’t leave on their own due to their missions. Thus, they could only hold gatherings at Nebula Palace.
Meng Chuan bade farewell and headed to the periphery to set up his cave abode.
“Cang Li, you took the initiative to welcome a newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence? You should have waited for him to go to your cave abode,” said the cyan-robed Lady Feng Yu.
“Feng Yu,” said Cang Li, “Don’t underestimate any Sixth Tribulation Eminence. They must be extraordinary if they can reach the Sixth Tribulation realm.”

“You are just too cautious about everything.” Lady Feng Yu shook her head. Phoenixes were mainly female; there were very few males. Many of them lived alone their entire lives. Once they chose a target, they wouldn’t give up easily.
Lady Feng Yu was extremely proud and aloof, but she was certain that Cang Li was the one after interacting with him. Cang Li had come to the Valley of Spacetime for the Void Trileaf Flower, while Lady Feng Yu had also come to the Valley of Spacetime thanks to her identity as a phoenix.
Cang Li looked at Lady Feng Yu.
The two of them were indeed too different. Lady Feng Yu was born of the phoenix race. She was accustomed to not thinking much of other experts. However, Cang Li had struggled to survive in the outer realm’s void since he was a weak Supremacy. He had suffered too much, so he instinctively didn’t underestimate any Tribulation Eminence at the same level.
“Treating friends with respect might result in a future opportunity,” said Cang Li.
“A newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence though?” Lady Feng Yu didn’t say anything else. She felt that Cang Li’s cultivation style was too tiring. She felt that one should be happy and carefree, doing the things they wanted. Only then would her cultivation be smoother.
To be so careful and scheming? It was exhausting.
Cang Li glanced at her without saying anything
He had a nagging feeling that the conditions given to these phoenixes by Phoenix Ancestor were too good. They were shielded from the darkness in the outer realm, preventing them from seeing much of the truth. This was probably the reason why the dragons and phoenixes didn’t have any Seventh Tribulation Eminences in this era.
This Eastcalm isn’t ordinary. Cang Li looked into the distance. Cang Li was very good at observing things. Among the Sixth Tribulation laws he had grasped, one was the Fate law.
The Fate law involved the future timelines of the Laws of Time. When the future had yet to happen, there were many possibilities.
Cang Li looked at Meng Chuan. He could see fate threads intertwining with Meng Chuan’s body. It was difficult to pry into too many things since he felt a faint pressure coming from the fate threads.
In the void, Meng Chuan flew to the periphery. He could sense White Avian Hall’s and Six Directions Heaven’s arrays.
Whoosh.
Meng Chuan waved his hand, and a cave abode flew out. The five-kilometer-wide cave abode floated in the air.
In the future, an avatar will cultivate here. Meng Chuan smiled. He had a good impression of Cang Li after coming to the Valley of Spacetime. At the very least, Cang Li’s cultivation accomplishments impressed him.
“Brother Eastcalm, come over quickly.” Cang Li summoned him through the Nebula Token. “I’m coming.”
With a thought, Meng Chuan sent his will through the Nebula Token to the mysterious Nebula Palace.
Meng Chuan left only an Essence Soul avatar in spacetime.
Archean Eon Realm.
“Master has long prepared the array formation and treasures that will help Archean Eon Realm grow. However, he has always lacked a Sixth Tribulation Eminence presiding over the array formation,” said the white-robed elder at Heaven and Earth Great Hall’s entrance.
Meng Chuan nodded. “It’s time to let Archean Eon Realm grow.”
“The size limit of a middle-level world is 150,000 kilometers across,” said the white-robed elder. “Meng Chuan, you only need to carefully preside over it for 1,000 years. It will be easy after that.”
Meng Chuan had also read up on the details.
It was like planting a tree. In the beginning, one had to be very careful-plowing the land, fertilizing the soil, and watering the sapling. The sapling would slowly grow. However, once it passed the early stages, there was no need to care too much about it. It would grow naturally, and over decades and centuries, it would grow bigger and bigger.
Elevating a world of life was much more complicated than planting trees, but the process was similar.
In the beginning, Meng Chuan had to guide it carefully and invest all sorts of treasures. After plenty of care was provided for 1,000 years, and once everything was on track, there was no need to take care of it anymore. He just needed to let it grow naturally. “To advance from a low-level world to a middle-level world, one needs to take care of it carefully for 500 years. After that, it will grow normally for 300,000 years… Only then can it be considered a stable middle-level world,” said the white-robed elder. “After it stabilizes, it can be upgraded. Meng Chuan, take care of Archean Eon Realm meticulously for 1,000 years. After that, let it grow for about 500,000 years. It will then become a peak middle-level world.”
“The time a world takes to grow is truly long.” Meng Chuan sighed.
A tree would take a decade to a century to finish growing
It was normal for a world to take hundreds of thousands of years to grow.
“I heard that the way a high-level world grows is different,” said the white-robed elder. “However, only an Eighth Tribulation Eminence can do that.”
Meng Chuan nodded as well.
If an Eighth Tribulation Eminence was willing, they could change their species. For example, the phoenixes and the dragons were born because of Eighth Tribulation Eminences. The mystic realms they created could nurture many experts. The number of experts in a mystic realm could even be comparable to the number of experts in ten river systems. It also allowed cultivators to remain undying and transcend Samsara. These were the means of an Eighth Tribulation Eminence.
The current Seventh Tribulation Eminences were also pursuing their footsteps.
“Let’s begin.” Meng Chuan headed to Heaven and Earth Great Hall and presided over the array formation. He began Archean Eon Realm’s growth once again.
