Chapter 592 Forbidden Creature

After spacetime stabilized, Meng Chuan landed on the ground and looked around. With his eyesight, he could see that the land was half a million kilometers wide. It was pitch-black beyond the land’s edge. Meng Chuan was currently at the very edge.

That mountain. Meng Chuan looked into the distance. In the middle of the vast land stood a towering mountain. The mountain was more than 50,000 kilometers tall, and the mountainside was clustered by clouds.

The mountain was completely black.

As he stared from afar, Meng Chuan felt his heart palpitate and panic. It was as though he was a mortal who had raised his head to look at a 10,000-foot-tall monster. It was an instinctual fear.

This mountain is very strange. This ruin world isn’t ordinary either. Meng Chuan discovered this the moment he entered. This land originally had cave abode buildings, but they were now in ruins. Most of them had been reduced to gravel, leaving behind only a portion of their remains.

At the same time, the suppression of the world was terrifying. Even a Fifth Tribulation Eminence had to resist it with all their might.

Even a Fourth Tribulation Eminence will be crushed to death by such suppression. It looks like the threshold to enter this ruin world is the Fifth Tribulation realm. Only a Fifth Tribulation Eminence and stronger can survive here. Who created this ruin world and left behind such a powerful suppression?

For such a world to maintain such a strong suppression for a long time, the energy consumed is astonishing. The creator of this ruin world is a Seventh Tribulation Eminence at least.

“Brother Eastcalm,” said Fu Sui via voice transmission.

Meng Chuan immediately rushed over. Due to the suppression, Meng Chuan’s speed was much lower.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Meng Chuan, Meng Hu, and Black Wind gathered beside Fu Sui.

“I believe everyone has discovered how extraordinary this ruin is,” said Fu Sui with a smile. “I’ve already died three times here. I’ll give you a brief introduction. When I first came to this ruin world, I realized that this ruin was rather extraordinary. I also sensed that the mountain in the middle of the land was very strange. Therefore, I carefully explored the land and didn’t dare to barge into the black mountain,” explained Fu Sui. “I gained something during my exploration of the land, but I also encountered a forbidden creature.”

“A forbidden creature?” Meng Chuan and Meng Hu were alarmed.

They were all members of the Cang Alliance. They could exchange for some benefits by killing forbidden creatures, but they had yet to kill one. This was because there were too few forbidden creatures.

“There are many forbidden creatures in this ruin,” said Fu Sui solemnly.

“Many?” Meng Chuan asked in surprise, “How is that possible? It’s very difficult for forbidden creatures to be born. Is this a forbidden creature lair?”

“No.” Black Wind shook his head. “It doesn’t look like a lair. It’s more like a cage for forbidden creatures.”

Fu Sui also explained, “Although there are many forbidden creatures in this ruin world, the forbidden creatures here have gone crazy. They are no longer lucid. As for why they’ve gone insane, we aren’t too sure.”

“Not lucid?” Meng Chuan and Meng Hu fell into deep thought.

Ordinary forbidden creatures were comparable to Tribulation Eminences. They naturally had lucid thoughts and were very cunning. Yet, all the forbidden creatures here went crazy? “Furthermore, the closer one is to the black mountain in the middle, the more forbidden creatures there are. Therefore, I only managed to arrive at the black mountain when I joined forces with Black Wind.” Fu Sui pointed at the black mountain. “I’ve explored this land for hundreds of years, but I didn’t gain much. However, when I first climbed the mountain, I discovered… that the true treasure trove in this ruin world is that black mountain.”

“It’s that mountain.” Black Wind’s eyes burned fervently. “The two of us only explored the foot of the mountain in half a month, and we felt that we had gained a lot.”

“What’s so precious about it?” asked Meng Hu with a frown.

“You’ll know when we get there.” Fu Sui smiled slightly. “If we go, all of you will definitely be grateful to me. This time, we won’t waste anymore time on exploring this land. We will head straight for the mountain. Brother Eastcalm, you need to send an Essence Soul avatar to scout the surroundings. Brother Meng Hu, if a forbidden creature attacks, you have to destroy it as soon as possible. This is because the longer we delay, the chaos from the battle will attract even more crazy forbidden creatures.”

“How strong are the forbidden creatures?” asked Meng Hu.

“In the centuries I’ve been exploring the land, all the forbidden creatures I’ve seen are at the Fifth Tribulation realm. Any weaker, and they wouldn’t be able to survive in this ruin,” said Fu Sui with a smile. “As for the black mountain, I’m not sure. At the very least, the ones Black Wind and I encountered were at the Fifth Tribulation realm during the half-month we explored the foot of the mountain.”

Meng Chuan and Meng Hu nodded.

It was very difficult to produce a Sixth Tribulation Eminence among Tribulation Eminences. It was the same for forbidden creatures!

“Even if these forbidden creatures are at the Fifth Tribulation realm, they differ in strength. We can’t be careless,” said Fu Sui. “Furthermore, you know how powerful these forbidden creatures are. They are very unpredictable.”

Meng Chuan and Meng Hu nodded.

Unlike Tribulation Eminences—who relied on cultivation-forbidden creatures were born under special circumstances. They relied on eating to become stronger. They were born with all sorts of powers. Some were incomprehensible.

“Let’s set off,” said Fu Sui immediately. He and Black Wind yearned to step onto the mountain as soon as possible.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Meng Chuan released three Essence Soul avatars and split them up to scout the area ahead. The team quickly rushed towards the black mountain.

Whoosh.

With Meng Chuan leading the other three, the group traveled very quickly.

Meng Hu couldn’t help but sigh in amazement. “Brother Eastcalm sure is fast.”

“At this speed, we will probably reach the mountain in a month,” said Fu Sui. Although they weren’t too far away, the ruin world’s suppression was very strong. Meng Chuan could only travel 5,000 kilometers a day with them.

Half a month quickly passed as they traveled.

“That’s strange. We’ve been traveling for half a month and have covered more than 50,000 kilometers, but we haven’t encountered a single forbidden creature?” Fu Sui was surprised.

“I encountered a few, but they were all resolved by my Essence Soul avatars,” said Meng Chuan. “Resolved?”

“We didn’t sense any battles.” Fu Sui, Black Wind, and Meng Hu looked at Meng Chuan in shock.

“They were relatively weak, so they were killed very quickly.” Meng Chuan smiled slightly. “In order not to attract other forbidden creatures, I tried my best to control the void and suppress all commotion.”

“That’s because you are strong enough,” said Black Wind with a smile. “If one has difficulty killing a forbidden creature, one naturally won’t be able to suppress the commotion.”

Fu Sui nodded and said, “There are strong and weak forbidden creatures. The stronger ones are at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation realm. They will be very difficult to deal with.”

Meng Chuan nodded. “I haven’t encountered them yet. I’ll have to rely on Brother Meng Hu and everyone else if I encounter them.”

A strange beast, with nine tails and a human face, had bloodshot eyes. It was filled with madness and killing intent. Without any reason, it charged towards the black-robed, white-haired Meng Chuan.

This beast had split into nine monsters. All of them had physical bodies and were at the Fifth Tribulation realm.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Meng Chuan stood rooted to the ground as divine swords flew out. They instantly vanished the moment they flew out.

When they appeared again, they had already stabbed into the monsters’ bodies. In the blink of an eye, the nine monsters that had split up were impaled. A white stone bead inside one of the monsters’ bodies shattered.

Bam!

When the white bone bead shattered, the eight monsters immediately dissipated. Only the shattered monster’s true body was left in shock and horror. Following that, it slumped to the ground motionless, no longer breathing.

It’s relatively easy to deal with forbidden creatures below the Sixth Tribulation realm because their cores are in their bodies. Meng Chuan nodded slightly as the divine swords flew in front of him. With a wave of his hand, Meng Chuan stored the forbidden creature’s corpse away. Once a forbidden creature reached the Sixth Tribulation realm, its core would leave its body and hide somewhere else.

Even if its body was destroyed thousands of times, it could instantly recover as long as its core remained intact. Therefore, even a Sixth Tribulation Eminence would have a headache when facing a Sixth Tribulation forbidden creature.

As for Fifth Tribulation forbidden creatures? As long as one had overpowering strength, killing one was much easier.

The nine-tailed forbidden creature was considered powerful, but Meng Chuan was just too strong

Although I’m only using an ordinary weapon, it’s still very easy to kill these forbidden creatures. Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul avatars used a Fifth Tribulation treasure. Before Meng Chuan came, he had specially bought a sword array. There were 18 swords in the array. Every Essence Soul avatar could carry a few of them when they were sent out. Meng Chuan didn’t care about how profound the sword array was. He only cared about how sharp these divine swords were.

As for profundity? Meng Chuan could use all the moves he had comprehended. In this state, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul avatar had the most ordinary strength. Yet, they were much stronger than Meng Chuan’s true body back when he had only grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws.

If he used the Seventh Tribulation treasureChaos Hole Bead-he could increase his strength by several-fold.

After traveling for more than half a month, they were getting closer and closer to the mountain.

Fu Sui, Black Wind, and Meng Hu were astonished to discover that they hadn’t encountered any forbidden creatures on their way. Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul avatars had clearly intercepted them.

“This trip is way too easy.” Fu Sui and Black Wind secretly conversed.

Black Wind sent a voice transmission. “Are we lucky, or is Brother Eastcalm just that strong?”

“Perhaps we are lucky. Brother Eastcalm only sent out Essence Soul avatars. The treasures carried by his Essence Soul avatars must be very ordinary. How much strength can he unleash?” Fu Sui sent a voice transmission.

Suddenly, Meng Chuan’s expression changed slightly as he solemnly said, “There’s a forbidden creature. My Essence Soul avatar can’t block it. Everyone, be careful.”

“Is one finally here?”Meng Hu’s eyes lit up. He had come to this ruin as the team’s main combat strength, but he had been idle up to now. “Brother Eastcalm, the days have been rough on you. Leave this forbidden creature to me,” said Meng Hu with a smile.
