Archean Eon Art Chapter 574

Chapter 574 - Plundering Factions

“We were talking about you just now.” Mountain Lord Boneserve was a skeleton draped in a robe. His homeworld was a middle-level world. His cultivation focused on the Skeleton Body, which ultimately transformed him into a skeleton lifeform.

“Even if Cang Alliance members are scattered across the River of Spacetime, there are only about ten people who have cultivated their body and Essence Soul to the Fifth Tribulation realm. If we include the fact that you’ve grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws, there will only be two.” Fu Sui—who was as chubby as a ball—smiled with an infectious smile. “Brother Eastcalm is the third. We naturally have to befriend such a person.”

Meng Chuan smiled and said, “I’ve heard of Brother Fu Sui’s name many times.”

“Is it because I like to explore ruins and court death?” Fu Sui smiled.

The members of the Cang Alliance came from all over the universe. They had their individualistic style.

Fu Sui enjoyed adventures and exploration! Since he explored ruins often, he had brushes with death many times.

“Fu Sui, how many times have your outer realm true bodies died during your ruin expeditions?” asked Zi Yao with a smile. “I remember it was 35 when you told me last time.”

“Thirty-seven times,” Fu Sui said helplessly. “Although I gain from exploring ruins, losing my outer realm true body time and time again makes me rather poor, despite the fact I can cultivate a new one.”

Once one’s outer realm true body died, all the treasures it carried would be gone! An outer realm true body also required numerous treasures for cultivation.

Therefore, Fu Sui didn’t want to spend too much when it came to cultivating his body. Although he had grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws, his physical body was relatively weak. His overall strength was considered average among Fifth Tribulation Eminences. However, in the Cang Alliance, he was publicly acknowledged to have the most experience in exploring ruins. Everyone was willing to befriend him and invite him to explore ruins together.

Meng Chuan chatted with Fu Sui, Mountain Lord Boneserve, Old Fiend Black Wind, and Zi Yao for a long time before departing.

The Cang Alliance’s gatherings were also a way to befriend others.

After all, those who could join the Cang Alliance were Fifth Tribulation Eminences at least. All of them were overlords of a river system.

In the past half year, Meng Chuan met more than 100 members in the Cang Alliance Space. Old Fiend Black Wind—who liked to befriend people—had acquainted himself with more people than Meng Chuan did in the past half-year.

“They have all left. Let’s talk business,” said Fu Sui with a smile as he looked at Black Wind.

“What’s the matter?” asked Black Wind.

“I plan on exploring an ancient ruin.” Fu Sui nodded and said, “I want to ask if you are interested in joining us?”

“You plan on exploring another ruin again?” Black Wind knew that Fu Sui was very crazy in this aspect. “Can’t you just do it alone? Why are you roping me in?”

Fu Sui shook his head gently. “It’s different this time. This ruin is a little special. Furthermore, I’ve already died twice during my preliminary explorations. I need companions. As for your cultivation methods, they should be quite suitable for the expedition. Therefore, I’m here to invite you.”

“Where’s the ruin?” asked Black Wind.

“It’s in Six Desires River Zone,” Fu Sui said.

“It’s very far from my Goddess River Zone. It’ll take me more than a year to travel there,” said Black Wind.

“It’s only a year. Are you coming?” asked Fu Sui. “The rewards obtained from the ruin exploration will depend on each person’s ability.”

Black Wind pondered for a moment and looked at Fu Sui.

Although most Fifth Tribulation Eminences had another true body hiding in their homeworld, making them virtually immortal, losing their treasures and the body when exploring a ruin would result in a loss of thousands of cubes, maybe even more. They naturally had to be careful. Very few people were as crazy as Fu Sui in exploring ruins.

This Fu Sui’s physical body is weak. The Tribulation treasures he carries with him are weak as well. However, he has also grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws. In terms of strength, he’s not inferior to me, thought Black Wind to himself. He has quite a good reputation in the Cang Alliance because of his numerous ruin expeditions. He has already made two preliminary expeditions to this ruin. This ruin must be very special and attractive to him. I can give it a try. However, I shouldn’t bring too many treasures with me. I just need to unleash 70 to 80 percent of my strength.

Fu Sui waited by the side for Black Wind’s answer.

“Alright, I’ll set off immediately. We’ll meet in Six Desires River Zone.” Black Wind nodded. “Only the two of us will explore the ruin together.”

Fu Sui nodded. “Just you and me.”

After making some arrangements that day, Black Wind immediately set off for the distant Six Desires River Zone to rendezvous with Fu Sui.

As for Meng Chuan, he was still focused on cultivating in Three Bay River System. He was busy comprehending the River of Spacetime’s best void manual—Void Catalog’s third volume.

Three Bay River System, in an outer realm void.

Two Imperial Lords looked around in despair. Black ripples emanated from the surrounding void for tens of millions of kilometers. They were like bugs that had fallen into a spiderweb. They were unable to escape.

“Senior, Senior, we are willing to offer our treasures. Please spare our lives,” pleaded the two Imperial Lords.

A black-robed elder appeared amidst the black ripples. His eyes were filled with black runes as he sized up the two Imperial Lords. It was as though he was looking at two ants waiting to be slaughtered. He said coldly, “I’ll spare your lives if you hand over all the treasures on you, including the items in the grotto-heaven.”

“Everything?” The two Imperial Lords exchanged looks.

In front of a Tribulation Eminence, there was no way they could hide anything.

“Count ourselves unlucky to encounter Old Bandit Bolan. Don’t hold any hopes. Let’s just hope that he will spare the juniors’ lives.”

“I hope Old Bandit Bolan doesn’t force us too much.” The duo communicated via voice transmissions.

One of the Imperial Lords immediately said respectfully, “We are willing to hand over all the treasures on us. However, we have Supremacies in our grotto-heaven. Please spare them. These Supremacies will naturally hand over all their treasures as well.”

“Supremacies? It’s better for such weaklings to die.” The black-robed elder’s eyes suffused a ferocious glow.

He liked killing Supremacies.

Why would he spare an Imperial Lord? This was because an Imperial Lord had another true body in their homeworlds. Even if he killed them, an Imperial Lord could cultivate another true body.

As for Supremacies, killing them meant killing them completely! The thought of completely killing a cultivator excited the black-robed elder.

“Senior, killing them won’t do you any good.”

“Senior, please give those Supremacies a chance of survival.” The two Imperial Lords were somewhat anxious. Some of the Supremacies they brought were their followers, while others were Supremacies from their homeworld. It was fine if the treasures were gone, but they still had to protect the Supremacies’ lives.

The black-robed elder chuckled as his black eyes became even more ferocious. “I’ll give the two of you a choice. Hand over the treasures and all the Supremacies and scram. The other choice is death for the two of you.”

“Senior.” One of the Imperial Lords suppressed his anger and maintained a respectful attitude. “If you give the Supremacies a way out, we will offer all our treasures. If you don’t give them a way out, we will definitely not hand over all our treasures. We will destroy as many treasures as we can.”

“Senior, why would you want to lose so many treasures just to vent your anger?” asked another Imperial Lord.

“Are you threatening me?” The black-robed elder chuckled strangely.

“Senior, you are a Tribulation Eminence. Why bother being petty with juniors? Please show some generosity. We will definitely thank you for sparing our lives.” The two Imperial Lords tried to persuade him.

Clang!

Without any warning, the black ripples in the void domain erupted with all its might, attacking the two Imperial Lords.

“Scum!” The two Imperial Lords’ eyes turned red. In their rage and despair, they only had time to self-destruct. They tried their best to destroy the treasures they carried with them. However, many Tribulation treasures could not be destroyed.

Soon, only a portion of the treasures remained! The two Imperial Lords and the 23 Supremacies hiding in the grotto-heaven died. The Imperial Lords still had true bodies in their homeworld, but the Supremacies had truly died.

“Hahaha… I like to see that look of despair.” The black-robed elder extended his long tongue—his tongue was split into three parts—and licked his lips. He enjoyed the pleasure gained from killing others. He enjoyed the despair of the weak. He then put away the treasures and left.

An hour later, in a hidden cave abode on a Grand Yin Star.

The black-robed elder returned to the cave abode. The Imperial Lords were extremely respectful when they saw him.

“Bolan, you’re back.” A red-robed man—who was sitting there, eating large mouthfuls of meat—looked up and asked, “How’s your harvest this time?”

“After wandering around for half a year, I only encountered three batches of cultivators. I killed seven Imperial Lords and over 50 Supremacies.” The black-robed elder shook his head and said, “Those Supremacies were completely wiped out. Unfortunately, Imperial Lords have true bodies in inhabited worlds. There’s no way to kill them completely. I’m really envious of these ants. Us special lifeforms have no world to hide in.”

“They can hide in their homeworlds, but they are still very weak,” said the red-robed man as he ate the meat. “By the way, we have to restrain ourselves from today onwards.”

“Restrain? Why?” asked the black-robed elder in puzzlement.

“Our Three Bay River System has an additional Fifth Tribulation Eminence,” said the red-robed man. “According to the news from Black Fiend Hall, Three Bay River System’s newly-appeared Fifth Tribulation Eminence is City Lord Eastcalm.”
