Archean Eon Art Chapter 678 – Spacetime Token

A rare treasure? Meng Chuan carefully looked at the token phantom. The token was like amber that had an inner luster to it.

“When Dragon Ancestor left our universe and was out roaming, he experienced countless fortuitous encounters. He once discovered a pocket universe about the size of a river system,” said the turtle-shelled elder with a smile. “A miniature River of Spacetime has already formed in this pocket universe. As it’s too small, the laws in the small universe were incomplete. It didn’t give birth to any living beings. Dragon Ancestor refined this pocket universe and refined it into this Spacetime Token. Dragon Ancestor’s refinement method was extremely profound. Just controlling the power of the pocket universe requires one to have grasped the spatial law.”

Meng Chuan’s heart stirred. A pocket universe?

Among the treasures left behind by Ancestral Master Archean Eon, there was also a rare treasure—a pocket universe. However, this pocket universe was only suitable for storage and cultivating inside. At the same time, it was much smaller than Dragon Ancestor’s. It was priced at 500,000 cubes in his homeworld’s treasure vault.

The Dragon Ancestor’s one had been refined into a rare treasure, a Spacetime Token. It had some special uses.

“With the Spacetime Token, you can use the pocket universe’s power to release a spacetime domain,” said the turtle-shelled elder. “A spacetime domain is much stronger than your Absolute Space. This is also the only move that it can use against enemies.

“The Spacetime Token’s other use is to travel through spacetime. One can head to any place in a River of Spacetime in a single step. In regards to escaping, it’s better than most Eighth Tribulation treasures,” said the turtle-shelled elder. “To prevent the Spacetime Token from traveling through spacetime, one either has to grasp the laws of time and space, or they have to rely on an Eternal treasure.”

Meng Chuan got a clear understanding of the token.

Among the current Seventh Tribulation Eminences, only Hall Lord White Avian and Celestial Thearch Myriad Star had grasped the laws of time and space. These two had extremely high statuses. They wouldn’t easily take action.

As for Eternal treasures? Seventh Tribulation Eminences would be trying their best to hide it, so who would dare to reveal them publicly?

It’s indeed better than many Eighth Tribulation treasures for escaping. Meng Chuan was impressed.

For example, a Spacetime Teleportation Talisman cost 3,000 cubes. There were also Eighth Tribulation treasures specially used for spacetime teleportation. By using them, one could teleport through spacetime repeatedly.

However, spacetime teleportation took time—albeit an extremely short period of time. To a Seventh Tribulation Eminence, this amount of time was enough for them to attack multiple times.

On the contrary, a Spacetime Token could travel through spacetime with a pocket universe’s power. It could travel to any place in the River of Spacetime in a single step. This made it much better. Therefore, it was much more valuable than an Eighth Tribulation treasure for spacetime teleportation.

“Choose any one of the three treasures.” The turtle-shelled elder smiled at Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan fell into a dilemma.

It was too difficult to choose. All of them were very attractive, but Meng Chuan knew that such treasures were just a casual gift from Dragon Ancestor.

“Senior Bei, can you give me some advice? Which one suits me the best?” Although Meng Chuan had vaguely made a decision, he still asked. After all, his knowledge was probably inferior to this ancient array spirit.

The turtle-shelled elder pondered for a moment and said, “The first item—the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation fragment—can’t directly increase your strength, but you can study it carefully. Perhaps you won’t gain much, but it might help you reach the Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation realm.

“The second treasure is the most practical. When you reach the Seventh Tribulation realm, this will be the most suitable weapon for you. It’s extremely powerful in a head-on battle. Furthermore, it includes the method of combining the Chaos Hole law with other Origins laws… This Tri-Ring Chaos Hole Array provides the clearest guidance.

“The third treasure will increase your strength the most when you are at the Sixth Tribulation realm. This is because it can immediately allow you to possess a spacetime domain, greatly boosting your strength. But once you reach the Seventh Tribulation realm, the spacetime domain won’t be of much help. However, the Spacetime Token’s escape technique is extremely precious. It’s enough to make Seventh Tribulation Eminences covet it,” said the turtle-shelled elder.

“It’s also beneficial to your cultivation. You can carefully study the profundities of the fusion of time and space from it. It’s very rare to find something that can match the Spacetime Token in terms of the profundities of time and space,” said the turtle-shelled elder. “Dragon Ancestor only succeeded in refining it because he used a miniature River of Spacetime as the source. If you study it, it will benefit and help you figure out a temporal law in the future.”

“What needs to be said has been said. It’s up to you,” said the turtle-shelled elder.

Meng Chuan looked at one of the illusory figures and pointed at it. “I’ll take this.”

“Spacetime Token.” The turtle-shelled elder nodded. “Wait a moment. I’ll get it for you.”

Meng Chuan had thought about it carefully.

Tri-Ring Chaos Hole Array? A combat treasure wasn’t that important to his cultivation. He could choose a weaker Eighth Tribulation treasure.

Furthermore, he had many Essence Soul avatars. There was no need for him to fight others head-on. Even if an Essence Soul avatar was shattered, he could recover it with a thought. The ability to engage in endless combat was the greatest deterrence that Essence Soul Seventh Tribulation Eminences had. Origin Realm’s leader relied on this to fight Six Directions Heaven and White Avian Hall repeatedly.

An Essence Soul Eighth Tribulation fragment needed to be carefully studied. Who knew how much he would gain from it?

Compared to this, the aid provided by the rare treasure—Spacetime Token—was very direct.

For a long time, traversing spacetime was one of Meng Chuan’s greatest weaknesses. This was because the Chaos Hole law wasn’t good at this aspect. Even if he comprehended a second Origins law in the future, it might not be good for traveling either. For example, Ancestral Master Archean Eon wasn’t good at traveling through spacetime. This was because most of the Origins laws didn’t excel at traversing spacetime.

The Spacetime Token could make up for Meng Chuan’s weakness and help him comprehend the laws of time.

When he reached the Seventh Tribulation realm, the temporal law would be his greatest goal.

Boom!

The void in front of him distorted as an item appeared out of thin air.

It was a token. The token was amber in color. Upon closer inspection, one could see a vast galaxy hidden within.

“Meng Chuan, keep it well. Most Seventh Tribulation Eminences will be envious of this treasure,” said the turtle-shelled elder with a smile.

Meng Chuan reached out to receive it. The moment he held it, he infused his Power of Essence Soul.

His consciousness entered a vast universe. The river of stars was resplendent. It was slightly smaller than his homeworld, Three Bay River System, but still the size of an average river system. It already had a miniature River of Spacetime that belonged to this pocket universe.

Chains were everywhere in the River of Spacetime, and each chain contained countless runes.

A total of 9,999 chains controlled the miniature River of Spacetime completely. Using it, he could utilize the entire pocket universe’s powers.

Meng Chuan activated the runes on the chains.

Dragon Ancestor’s means are indeed unfathomable. He can actually control a miniature River of Spacetime completely. Meng Chuan tried to activate it.

Buzz—

The release of the pocket universe’s power was spacetime in nature.

Spacetime domain!

As he was in the Nine Trials Pagoda, Meng Chuan could only have its range extend to 1,000 feet. He couldn’t see the spacetime domain with the naked eye.

It’s even bigger than Absolute Space. Meng Chuan was instantly immersed in the spacetime domain. It was too shocking. When will I be capable of producing such a domain with my own means?

He knew that the present era’s two most dazzling figures could do so. Furthermore, it was even more powerful than the pocket universe’s power that came with incomplete laws.

“How does it feel?” asked the turtle-shelled elder with a smile.

Meng Chuan put away the Spacetime Token and nodded. “I’d like to thank Dragon Ancestor for the gift. I will definitely remember this favor.”

“Dragon Ancestor doesn’t require anything in return,” said the turtle-shelled elder with a smile. “It’s mostly to help his home universe’s descendants. If you can reach the Eighth Tribulation realm in the future, you might be able to help Dragon Ancestor.”

He was just making a casual remark.

Dragon Ancestor had given away many treasures over the generations, but how many Eighth Tribulation Eminences had been born in the River of Spacetime’s history?

With the turtle-shelled elder’s experience, it was unlikely for a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence like Hall Lord White Avian and Celestial Thearch Myriad Star to reach the Eighth Tribulation realm even if there were hundreds of them.

The difference between a half-step Eighth Tribulation Eminence and an Eighth Tribulation Eminence might seem like a single step, but making that step was extremely difficult.

“By the way, the Nine Trials Pagoda has eight exits. They are located in eight different river zones.” The turtle-shelled elder waved his hand, and eight river zones appeared. “Choose an exit. I’ll send you out.”

Meng Chuan glanced at the exits and pointed at a spot. “Taidong River Zone.”

…

Nine Trials River Zone.

A gray-robed man sat cross-legged on a barren planet.

Yuchang was Guild Master Darkstar’s trusted aide. He was good at the karmic lineage. He wasn’t participating in the battle and was only here to help lock onto the target through karma.

Huh?

Yuchang’s eyebrows twitched as he looked up.

He clearly sensed the disappearance of City Lord Eastcalm’s avatar in Nine Trials River Zone. Following that, one of City Lord Eastcalm’s avatars appeared out of thin air in Taidong River Zone.

“City Lord Eastcalm has left the Nine Trials Pagoda and appeared at one of the Nine Trials Pagoda’s eight exits—Taidong River Zone.” Yuchang immediately reported to Guild Master Darkstar.

Yuchang sighed inwardly.

A very talented Sixth Tribulation Eminence was about to be plundered.

With Darkstar’s arrangements, it was almost impossible for a Sixth Tribulation Eminence to escape.
