Archean Eon Art Chapter 349

Chapter 349 - Runes

“Apart from this, what’s the second item of your choice?” asked Li Guan.

“Origins treasure, Clear Sky.” Meng Chuan didn’t hesitate to answer.

The advantage of an Origins treasure was certainly huge. It could draw upon Archean Mountain’s powers to form an Imperial Lord-level domain. It was the strongest defensive technique in a head-on clash! Even a peak fifth Firmament demon monarch’s attack couldn’t penetrate the domain. Even Demon Sage Nine Abyss’s strength would be reduced to 30 to 40 percent. This was much more useful than a Tribulation Eminence’s weapon. The only flaw of these Origins treasures was that their powers remained constant. By the time he reached the Grotto-Heaven realm, he would be able to unleash the might of a Tribulation Eminence weapon. It would be far more powerful than an Origins treasure.

At the very least, it can protect me for a few decades. The next few decades are a crucial period. That’s how long I’ll take to wipe out all the demon monarchs in the world.

“Alright, wait here. We’ll help you retrieve them.” Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang turned and left. They pushed open the hall’s door, which led to an empty square. Other buildings surrounded it.

Meng Chuan sat alone in the hall and waited.

Ancestral Master Archean Eon left behind many treasures for us descendants. Meng Chuan flipped through the books. The three Tribulation Eminence treasures that he could choose came from Ancestral Master Archean Eon.

From this, one could tell just how strong the human race was. Although the human world had produced Essence Soul Tribulation Eminences before, the strongest one had only reached the Third Tribulation realm. Therefore, there were few treasures left for humans.

Moments later, Li Guan, Qin Wu, and Luo Tang walked into the hall. Li Guan held a box as he walked to Meng Chuan. Once he was in front of Meng Chuan, he opened the box.

An ordinary, blood-red, metal disc laid inside the box.

Li Guan gently tapped it with his finger, and a wisp of Quintessential Essence seeped into the Bloodblade Disc. Dense runes immediately appeared on the Bloodblade Disc’s surface. Lightning also flashed around the Bloodblade Disc and emitted a terrifying aura.

Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul trembled when the aura appeared.

“A divine item usually conceals its strength. You typically wouldn’t be able to see anything impressive about it. It only reacted because I used my Quintessential Essence to probe it,” said Li Guan. “In fact, the Bloodblade Disc is made of extremely precious materials. It’s extremely compatible with the lightning lineage. You are now a Regis Godfiend. You can only refine the Bloodblade disc by using an Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art.”

Li Guan handed a book to Meng Chuan. “This book contains the instructions on how to use the Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art. To use this art, one requires a fourth-level Essence Soul. You meet the requirements.”

Meng Chuan took the book.

“Remember, Godfiends can only have one intrinsic treasure. Unless it’s destroyed or taken away, you can’t refine a second one,” said Li Guan. “However, if it’s destroyed or taken away, it will severely damage your Essence Soul, all the way to its foundation. You will lose your memories, and your perception will be greatly reduced. Therefore, no Godfiend will change their intrinsic treasure unless they are forced to.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. “Understood.”

The Essence Soul was the foundation of life. If his body was destroyed, he could still possess another person’s body. However, if his Essence Soul was destroyed, he would be truly dead. If one’s Essence Soul was too heavily injured, it was possible for one to become a fool. If one’s memories were incomplete and their perception was greatly reduced, one would become stupid. It was very common for one’s Essence Soul to be damaged.

“This is Clear sky.” Li Guan waved his hand, and a faint cyan-colored lightning bead flew towards Meng Chuan. “Clear Sky can be used easily. It’s best if you store it in your dantian space. Don’t let the enemy take it,” instructed Li Guan.

Meng Chuan reached out and clenched his fist. He felt the bead emanating warmth. Immediately, he opened his mouth and sucked the bead in.

Swoosh.

The bead could change size. It obediently flew into his dantian space and approached the Grotto-Heaven Magic Bead.

“You can test its might outside the hall,” said Li Guan with a smile.

Meng Chuan nodded and walked out of the hall. He stood in an empty square. He infused his Quintessential Essence into Clear Sky and activated the runic patterns on it. The runic patterns were simple to use. He first guided Archean Mountain’s powers into descending upon him; he then controlled Archean Mountain’s powers carefully.

Whoosh.

A faint cyan fog silently appeared in a five-kilometer radius around Meng Chuan. The cyan fog was a corporeal lightning bolt. Countless bolts of lightning condensed into clouds, gathering around Meng Chuan.

Three layers of lightning barriers appeared in a ten-foot radius around Meng Chuan, protecting him from any attacks.

“The Clear Sky domain weakens an enemy as they pass through each layer.” The cyan fog also shrouded Li Guan, Luo Tang, and Qin Wu. Li Guan said, “The three layers of protective lightning contain more than half of Clear Sky’s strength, giving it the strongest defense.”

“It’s easy to control it.” Meng Chuan nodded. He only used a small amount of Quintessential Essence to activate it. The domain’s power originated from Archean Mountain, so he didn’t feel burdened by activating it. However, it was extremely powerful.

Qin Wu smiled and said, “Meng Chuan, be it Clear Sky or the Bloodblade Disc, they are Archean Mountain’s treasures that are passed down from generation to generation. If you reach the end of your lifespan, you will have to return the treasures to the sect.”

“I understand.” Meng Chuan nodded and worriedly said, “What if I end up dying due to being weak…”

“In human history, many Creation Supremacies from Archean Mountain have gone to the River of Spacetime. Most of them never return,” said Li Guan helplessly. “What can we do if the treasures are lost? However, according to the sect’s rules, Creation Supremacies are forbidden from carrying a Tribulation Eminence weapon into the River of Spacetime. Only an Imperial Lord has the right to do so. Of course, if there’s a special reason, we can make an exception. For example, we made an exception for you. You were allowed to obtain the Bloodblade Disc despite being a Regis Godfiend.”

Meng Chuan nodded.

“Refine it well. Even after Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s preliminary tempering, it still won’t be easy to refine a Tribulation Eminence weapon,” said Li Guan with a smile.

It really was not easy. Meng Chuan first learned the Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art before attempting to refine it. He felt like a mortal riding an unbridled horse, finding it hard to control it. Meng Chuan could only slowly refine it as time passed.

This Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art has something in common with the Undying realm cultivation method of the physical body cultivation system. Meng Chuan had discovered something when learning the Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art. This refining art required one to have a fourth-level Essence Soul—the Soul Separation stage. This was because one needed to place Essence Soul thoughts into the Bloodblade Disc. This was very similar to how Meng Chuan had placed an Essence Soul thought in each of his particle spaces.

However, the difficulty of placing Essence Soul thoughts into the Bloodblade Disc was even greater. Even though it didn’t resist Meng Chuan strongly—thanks to Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s initial refining of the Bloodblade Disc-he still found it difficult to penetrate it with his Essence Soul.

Days passed in the ancient hall.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Meng Chuan sat cross-legged as the Bloodblade Disc floated in front of him. It constantly trembled and emitted sounds. Lightning flashed as its terrifying aura emanated. It was an aura that was 1,000 times more terrifying than a Creation Supremacy. Finally, all the lightning snakes on the Bloodblade Disc converged. Their auras were completely restrained as they floated obediently without any movement.

It’s done. Meng Chuan wore a look of delight as he looked at the Bloodblade Disc. It took me over two months to refine it.

Store. With a thought, the Bloodblade Disc rapidly shrank and landed in Meng Chuan’s palm. Following that, it shrank to a size that was barely visible to the naked eye. It easily seeped through his skin and meridians, entering his dantian space. “I’ve finally gained control over it,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. Once I completely refine the Bloodblade Disc with the Intrinsic Artifact Refining Art, part of my Essence Soul will fuse with it. It will become a part of my Essence Soul; it will also be a part of my body. It will be like an extension of my body when I control it.

However, it’s difficult to unleash its strength. It’s a Tribulation Eminence treasure. It’s way too complicated for a Regis Godfiend like me. With a flip of his hand, Meng Chuan took out the Bloodblade Disc. With his Essence Soul, he could clearly see the vast number of runes contained within the Bloodblade Disc.

Meng Chuan had three divine powers and had also cultivated the Lightning Runes. They were also runes that contained the mysteries of the world. However, compared to the runes on the Bloodblade Disc, the number of runes was hundreds of millions of times greater. The complexity of the runes was also incomparable. Meng Chuan could see 128 layers of runes in the Bloodblade Disc. Furthermore, many runes were hidden in spacetime. They would occasionally appear in his perception, but Meng Chuan found it difficult to see the complete runes.

Is this the difference between an Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence and me? Meng Chuan sighed inwardly. Thankfully, this is a protective treasure refined by that Tribulation Eminence for his disciple. I’ll just control it at a superficial level for now. The higher his realm was, the more runes he could control. Only then would he be able to unleash the might of the Bloodblade Disc.
