Chapter 696: Refining a Chaos Hole

“Hall Lord, there’s no need to announce the news of my breakthrough,” said Meng Chuan. “After all, I’m only about 100 years away from the tribulation. I don’t want to be disturbed and wish to focus on preparing for the tribulation.”

“Alright.” Hall Lord White Avian nodded. “By the way, according to my understanding, the 3,000 illusory arrays I gave you previously are useful for building an Essence Soul World. The stronger your Essence Soul World is, the greater your chances of transcending the tribulation.”

Meng Chuan came to a realization. “Thank you, Hall Lord.”

Hall Lord White Avian smiled and nodded. Meng Chuan’s transcending of the tribulation was of paramount importance right now. If he failed to transcend the tribulation, all his efforts would be for naught. If he succeeded in transcending the tribulation, White Avian Hall would have an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence.

The threat of an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence was something that even a handful of Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminences couldn’t compare to. An Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence could send a few Essence Soul avatars to attack various places without care for death.

The reason why Black Fiend Hall dared to act so fearlessly was that they had an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence. Origin Realm Chieftain and Realm Ancestor also enjoyed high statuses precisely because they were Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminences.

Most importantly, Meng Chuan was Hall Lord White Avian’s hope for recovery.

…

Three Bay River System.

Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul avatar arrived near a Dark Chaos Hole.

I haven’t been to a Chaos Hole’s core. Meng Chuan smiled as he stepped across the Chaos Hole accretion disc and continued walking deeper into the darkness.

With another step, he arrived at a region where time flowed 100 times faster.

But the arrival of Meng Chuan—a Seventh Tribulation Eminence—exerted too much pressure on spacetime. The time flow rapidly decelerated, and the time acceleration failed to be even twice as fast.

This place was already dark; there was no light at all. However, Meng Chuan could easily move through the distorted spacetime and sense the entire Chaos Hole.

Meng Chuan looked into the Chaos Hole’s deepest depths.

In the past, he couldn’t see it clearly, but he could now see the Chaos Hole’s core clearly. It was a perfect, smooth sphere with a diameter of 921 feet and 2 inches. Even when magnified by one trillion-fold, no bumps could be seen. It was extremely smooth and round.

Such a large sphere distorted spacetime to a terrifying extent.

Meng Chuan could determine the time flow everywhere with his perception of spacetime.

A day in the Chaos Hole’s core is roughly 300 years in the outside world. Meng Chuan deduced the time flow difference. With a step, he landed on the Chaos Hole’s core.

The Chaos Hole core was like a small wooden boat.

Meng Chuan took a step forward, causing the wooden boat to sway; it was extremely weak.

The Chaos Hole’s influence on spacetime greatly decreased. After Meng Chuan stood in this region, a day in the Chaos Hole’s core was roughly equivalent to 100 days in the outside world.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

The surface of the 921-foot-2-inches-wide Chaos Hole sphere silently disintegrated as it rapidly shrank.

910 feet, 900 feet, 890 feet…

I’m afraid that this Chaos Hole will collapse in less than ten minutes. My existence puts so much pressure on it? Meng Chuan sighed.

When he was at the Sixth Tribulation realm, the Chaos Hole—which used an Origins law as its core—wasn’t affected by him. When he used an Origins law as the core to raise his lifeforce, the burden on the Chaos Hole was thousands of times greater.

How powerful is an Eighth Tribulation Eminence? Meng Chuan sighed inwardly. Eighth Tribulation Eminences would undergo another qualitative change; they could even transcend and leave the River of Spacetime.

Meng Chuan took a step and left the Chaos Hole’s core.

The energy within the Chaos Hole’s core stopped depleting, and it resumed its normal operations. It continued to devour the outside world’s powers slowly. As time passed, it gradually grew larger.

Swoosh.

Meng Chuan took a step and crossed several river systems, arriving in front of a large, Dark Chaos Hole.

This Chaos Hole’s core has a diameter of 6,000 feet. It’s about the limit that my Essence Soul World can withstand. Meng Chuan nodded slightly. He had done a lot of research in White Avian Hall, so he knew how big a Chaos Hole a newly-advanced Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence could refine.

A Chaos Hole with a diameter of 6,000 feet was considered a super-large Chaos Hole. It was close to his limit.

Even if he could barely devour something slightly larger, it wouldn’t make much of a difference to his strength.

Refine.

With a thought, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World reflected reality. A vast, dark painting enveloped his surroundings.

Seventh Tribulation Eminences cultivated in somewhat special ways because of the laws they grasped.

For example, a Physical Body Seventh Tribulation Eminence that had grasped the Matter law didn’t need any Outer Realm Essence Crystals or any rare treasures. They could condense countless particles with a thought to build a massive body. This saved them the huge investment needed to cultivate their bodies.

An Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence that had grasped the Chaos Hole law also had one benefit. Their Essence Soul World needed to cultivate a World Treasure. The World Treasure that was most suitable for them was a true Chaos Hole from the outside world.

If they refined a massive Chaos Hole into their Essence Soul World, their Essence Soul World’s stability and strength would increase tremendously. There was no need to buy rare treasures since no rare treasures could compare to a true, massive Chaos Hole.

In fact, a portion of an Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence’s Essence Soul World would also be ‘corporealized.’ They would also condense a Chaos Hole core.

But the Chaos Hole core condensed with his strength alone was too small. The Chaos Hole core that Meng Chuan had formed was only one foot in diameter! Even if he consumed enough Outer Realm Essence Crystals, it would be impressive if he could enlarge it to 100 feet in diameter. It couldn’t compare to a true Chaos Hole that had been born for hundreds of millions of years.

Boom!

Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World was illusory. The massive dark painting completely covered the area.

The true Chaos Hole’s core was dragged toward the center of Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World and fused with the darkness.

Boom!

In the past, the Chaos Hole devoured the outside world.

Now, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World devoured the entire Chaos Hole.

The Chaos Hole core—which was 6,000 feet in diameter—slowly fused with Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World, becoming the Essence Soul World’s core.

After half a month, the Chaos Hole was finally in place and became a part of the Essence Soul World.

Very good. Meng Chuan could sense that his Essence Soul World seemed to have a world pillar now that it had a Chaos Hole core with a diameter of 6,000 feet! The world’s stability increased drastically, and the might of his Essence Soul World was much more terrifying.

Even if he didn’t use any moves, just the pressure from him was no less than a super-large Dark Chaos Hole.

…

There were many Dark Chaos Holes in the River of Spacetime, but Meng Chuan was the only Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminence in the Chaos Hole lineage in the present era.

Meng Chuan’s numerous Essence Soul avatars headed out to refine Chaos Holes into his Essence Soul World.

The sublimation of one’s order in life is indeed astonishing. Meng Chuan stood on the grass outside Jiang State Capital. Strictly speaking, the energy within him was much greater than the entire Archean Eon Realm. Most importantly, I’ve grasped an Origins law.

His immense strength could be magnified through laws.

Whoosh~

Just by standing on the grass, his domain—affected by the laws—had long spread across Archean Eon Realm and past the Demon Realm. It spread to an extremely vast area.

With Archean Eon Realm as the center, my Origins domain envelops an 80 trillion-kilometer area. Meng Chuan could clearly sense it.

Even if one didn’t deliberately use it, a lifeform’s Origins domain would naturally cover such a range even in their sleep.

Nothing could hide from Meng Chuan within this range.

I can block all karmic attacks within this range. Meng Chuan also understood this now.

The Karma law was only an Origins law as well—on the same level as the Chaos Hole law.

In his Origins domain, all karma was exposed.

When external powers seeped in through karma, his Origins domain could easily sense and block them. Even at Celestial Thearch Myriad Star and Hall Lord White Avian’s level, the might of any karmic attack would weaken to the level of an ordinary Seventh Tribulation Eminence. If it seeped into an inhabited world, its might would weaken even more…

Meng Chuan’s Origins domain could easily block it.

As long as one obtains a Seventh Tribulation Eminence’s protection, karmic attacks will be useless. Meng Chuan came to a realization. My protection range is 80 trillion kilometers around myself.

“Ah Chuan, is your idea of having a stroll with me to just stand there in a daze?” Liu Qiyue—who was taking in the flowers’ fragrance—turned to smile at her husband.
