Meng Chuan was filled with killing intent towards these Black Fiend Hall fiends. The moment he attacked, he used one of his trump cards—Pupil of Darkness.
“That’s—”
When the six Fifth Tribulation Eminences saw Meng Chuan’s eyes, they felt a strong attraction to his eyes. They couldn’t help but sink into them. Their consciousness sank into darkness, and their Essence Souls were destroyed.
Chi!
They carried Undying Talismans with them, which they had left marks on. The moment their Essence Souls were destroyed, the Undying Talismans naturally activated. Their past self projected onto the present, and their Essence Souls completely recovered.
But the moment Starlord Burning Sea and the others regained consciousness, they saw the pair of dark eyes once more and sank into oblivion once again.
Undying Talismans were a usage of the law of the past. It was considered the strongest life-preservation means at the Sixth Tribulation realm. The Undying Talismans sold in the outside world were typically casually refined by Seventh Tribulation Eminences. They could refine them in large quantities, so weak Tribulation Eminences typically had a few prepared.
An Undying Talisman had limited power. It could only resurrect a Fifth Tribulation Eminence once!
This Black Fiend Hall Fourth Tribulation Eminence actually has 20 Undying Talismans on him? Is he selling Undying Talismans? With a thought, Meng Chuan shattered the Undying Talismans that the Tribulation Eminence had yet to activate. The Undying Talismans that had marks on them could only be destroyed. They couldn’t be used by other living beings.
An Undying Talisman could revive a Fifth Tribulation Eminence once. It could revive a Fourth Tribulation Eminence about ten times and revive a newly-advanced Tribulation Eminence over 100 times.
However, an Imperial Lord could maintain an undying state for two hours. This was because Imperial Lords and Tribulation Eminences were on completely different levels of existence. It was much easier for an Imperial Lord to maintain an undying state with an Undying Talisman.
Powerful Tribulation Eminences like Starlord Burning Sea died as their corpses floated in the void.
The weak Tribulation Eminences held on for a while longer, but their bodies convulsed. Clearly, they died the moment they revived. Soon, they lost their vitality completely.
…
“No—” Among the Fifth Tribulation Eminences that attacked Ingenious Dharma Planet, only one was a special lifeform—Starlord Mist Cliff. His true body was in a Sixth Tribulation Eminence’s cave abode. He was also protected by this Sixth Tribulation Eminence.
He was dressed in a gray robe, and an illusory fog surrounded him. The head in the fog revealed a look of horror and despair.
Logically speaking, it was unlikely for a Sixth Tribulation Eminence to kill a Fifth Tribulation Eminence through karma remotely. However, Meng Chuan’s Pupil of Darkness was clearly extraordinary.
Whoosh.
The gray-robed special lifeform saw the pair of dark eyes again. He couldn’t help but sink into eternal darkness.
Swoosh.
A red-haired elder appeared out of thin air. When he saw the gray fog corpse left behind by the gray-robed special lifeform, his expression couldn’t help but change slightly. Mist Cliff is dead? Killing a Fifth Tribulation Eminence through karma? Could the murderer be a peak Sixth Tribulation Eminence?
In a face-off, a Sixth Tribulation Eminence could naturally kill a Fifth Tribulation Eminence with a flip of their hand. But it was impossible for an ordinary Sixth Tribulation Eminence to kill a Fifth Tribulation Eminence through karma remotely. They were either skilled in the karmic lineage or extremely powerful in certain aspects.
“Investigate who it is.” As a Sixth Tribulation Eminence, the red-haired elder immediately investigated the matter through Black Fiend Hall.
…
In a middle-level world, the strongest expert in this world lived on White Bone Mountain.
“This City Lord Eastcalm is so ruthless.” The skeletal lifeform was alarmed and furious. “He wasn’t satisfied with killing a single avatar. He wants to kill us completely? Mist Cliff is dead. Eight Fourth Tribulation Eminences are dead. Almost all the weaker Tribulation Eminences are dead.”
Even if weak Tribulation Eminences hid in their homeworld, they couldn’t withstand Meng Chuan’s Pupil of Darkness’s karmic descent. Hence, almost all of them died. Only two Third Tribulation Eminences survived in their homeworld.
The eight Fourth Tribulation Eminences and the Fifth Tribulation Eminence who had died were all special lifeforms.
Special lifeforms didn’t have a homeworld’s protection, so their life-preservation means were much weaker. Of course, they could head the Black Fiend Hall’s River of Spacetime headquarters if they could become a Sixth Tribulation Eminence. The protection of Black Fiend Hall’s headquarters wasn’t much weaker than that of an inhabited world. The headquarters also had a Seventh Tribulation Eminence permanently presiding over it.
These Black Fiend Hall members ultimately lined the bottom ranks. They had yet to become core members of Black Fiend Hall.
…
Outside Ingenious Dharma Planet.
Meng Chuan looked at the Black Fiend Hall Imperial Lords.
These Imperial Lords are just forced servants. However, as Black Fiend Hall’s henchmen, I’ll destroy their true bodies as punishment. Meng Chuan understood that these Imperial Lords couldn’t bear to part with their treasures. After all, some treasures might have been accumulated by their species over generations. They had to protect them at all costs. Therefore, they would rather be lackeys. Some Imperial Lords didn’t care about other cultivators’ lives. They just wanted to protect their treasures.
No matter what, they had to pay the price for being Black Fiend Hall’s lackeys.
Weren’t they most concerned about treasures?
Whoosh.
With a thought, all the treasures on the 300-plus Imperial Lords—including life-preservation items—flashed to Meng Chuan’s side. With a wave of his hand, Meng Chuan stored away the Imperial Lords’ treasures and the treasures left behind by Tribulation Eminences.
Following that, more than 300 Imperial Lords’ bodies were reduced to dust. Meng Chuan stored the Tribulation Eminences’ bodies as they had many uses.
Meng Chuan turned his head and saw Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma flying over.
“Greetings, City Lord Eastcalm.” Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma’s eyes were filled with gratitude. “Thank you, City Lord Eastcalm, for saving tens of thousands of cultivators on Ingenious Dharma Planet.”
“I happened to be in Orchid Transformation River Zone.” Meng Chuan looked at Ingenious Dharma Planet.
Joy filled the entire planet. The cultivators on the planet were very astute. They could tell that the white-robed, white-haired man was here to help the planet. He easily killed all the members of Black Fiend Hall.
The half-a-million-kilometer-tall Starlord Burning Sea—who was tearing apart Ingenious Dharma Planet’s array formation—was reduced to a floating corpse with just a single glance from the white-robed, white-haired man.
Amidst the cheers and excitement, the sword-bearing man and company—who had just arrived on Ingenious Dharma Planet—were also very excited.
“This Eminence is too powerful. Brother Wang, you are the most knowledgeable. Do you know which Eminence he is?”
“How would I know? Even Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma is so respectful towards him. Perhaps he’s a peak Eminence in the River of Spacetime.” The sword-bearing man’s eyes were filled with yearning. “We were able to escape today thanks to this Eminence. We can be considered lucky. To be able to witness such a scene in our lives… So many Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords were killed in the blink of an eye.”
“Yes. Where are all those Tribulation Eminences and Imperial Lords? They disappeared just like that.”
When I return to my homeworld, I’ll definitely write it on the sect’s dossiers and let my juniors learn about this. This is the grandest scene I’ve experienced in the past 500 years.
“Qian Mushen, you have to ask around more. I believe that there will be information on this Eminence senior in the city very soon.”
His companions smiled as they chatted. They were all Supremacies, and they were far inferior to Meng Chuan in strength. Furthermore, they had survived because of Meng Chuan. They naturally felt grateful, impressed, and even more reverent.
“Yes, I’ll definitely ask around.” The eyes of the young Supremacy named Qian Mushen lit up. The Eminence he now admired the most was the white-robed, white-haired man.
…
In the void outside Ingenious Dharma Planet.
Meng Chuan looked at the tens of thousands of excited cultivators with a look of reminiscence. By the side, Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma and said, “More than 50,000 cultivators were in despair previously. They had no way of resisting Black Fiend Hall. They are now alive because of you, Senior City Lord Eastcalm. This is the case in the outer realm. Whether they live or die doesn’t depend on themselves. It depends on the strong.”
“Cultivators have differences in strength to begin with,” said Meng Chuan. “After stepping into the outer realm, one has to be prepared to face all sorts of dangers.”
“The strong can establish order and protect the weak,” said Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma.
“The environment might be good or bad,” said Meng Chuan. “As a cultivator, the only thing they can grasp is to make themselves become stronger.”
Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma was slightly taken aback.
“The cultivation world is a place where the strong survive,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “Cultivators who step into the outer realm have lived for centuries or even millennia. How can they hope to be protected forever?”
Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma pondered for a moment before saying, “City Lord Eastcalm, you saved the entire Ingenious Dharma Planet. Please be my guest.”
“There’s no need.” Meng Chuan shook his head. “I still have something to do.”
Meng Chuan looked into the distance. He had been cultivating in the Endless Belts of Wind for so long. Now that Eternal Tower’s mission had interrupted him, it was about time for him to stop cultivating in the Endless Belts of Wind. He had already achieved his original goal—Void Walk. It was about time.
He had made a series of preparations to comprehend a complete spatial law.
It’s time to head to Holy Mountain of Painting.
“I’m leaving.” After saying that, Meng Chuan took a step and disappeared.
Palace Lady Ingenious Dharma stood in the void and pondered for a moment before flying back to Ingenious Dharma Planet.
