Chapter 557: First Probe of the Cave Abode

With Meng Chuan’s control over time, he could sense that the hidden cyan door had existed for a very long time.

This door has existed for a long time. It has existed for ten million years at least. Then, its creator should have died long ago. Palace Lord Snowjade brought Emperor Roc and his other subordinates over because of this mysterious cave abode? guessed Meng Chuan.

With a thought, he split out an Essence Soul avatar and had it fly towards the cyan door. The door opened with a push.

Oh? Through his Essence Soul avatar, Meng Chuan probed the situation behind the door. His eyes lit up.

Swoosh.

His true body flew in.

The cyan door—which contained many runic patterns—opened with a push. After Meng Chuan flew in, he turned around and saw the door close again.

What a cave abode. After dispelling his Essence Soul avatar, Meng Chuan looked at the scene in front of him.

Behind the door was an extremely large dark-red lair! This lair was about 500,000 kilometers wide. At the lair’s entrance was a stone monument, which had a few simple words engraved on it: “Those who reach the end will be the final victor.” The words circled around like tadpoles. Meng Chuan had never seen them before, but he could sense the intent contained in the words and understood the meaning behind them.

It’s only a few words, but the pressure they give me is already so strong. From the looks of it, it’s likely that this cave abode’s owner is an existence comparable to Ancestral Master Archean Eon.

He had seen many of Ancestral Master Archean Eon’s capabilities from the many things he had left behind in Archean Eon Realm.

Just the cyan door, stone monument, and lair made Meng Chuan feel that the creator was on the same level as Ancestral Master Archean Eon. At the very least, the words left behind by a Sixth Tribulation Eminence wouldn’t make him feel such immense pressure.

Is this cave abode related to a Seventh Tribulation Eminence? Or is it related to an even stronger existence? Meng Chuan was tempted.

Let’s go. Meng Chuan walked towards the lair’s entrance. At the same time, his Essence Soul World’s phantom appeared around him. When it came to reconnaissance, his Essence Soul World was still better than his Primordial domain.

...

There was only one entrance to the lair, but the deeper one went, the more forks there were.

According to the Palace Lord, we just need to advance. The deeper we can probe, the greater the benefits. Emperor Roc carefully advanced as ripples spread out in all directions. If I can obtain what the Palace Lord needs, it will be a great contribution. Emperor Roc was filled with anticipation.

Palace Lord Snowjade had a basic understanding of this cave abode. That was why he had brought his subordinates here. As long as they entered the cave abode and reached a certain depth, they would obtain opportunities and benefits. After they left the cave abode, these subordinates naturally had to hand over everything obediently! Although his subordinates were weaker than him, they had the number advantage. Perhaps Palace Lord Snowjade’s subordinates could amass more than him.

Palace Lord Snowjade wouldn’t be stingy if they amassed plenty of valuable treasures.

These subordinates were prepared to die in battle. Thus, they didn’t bring any valuable items with them.

Oh? As Emperor Roc walked through the lair’s tunnel, he suddenly saw a huge hole in front of him. The hole was rather large. Boundless black fog billowed beneath it. A blood-colored chain was connected to one end of the hole to another, with the other end being right in front of the tunnel.

Emperor Roc was slightly taken aback before he came to a realization. I probably have to step on the chain and walk to the other end. This cave abode is filled with danger. It’s very difficult to venture deep. If I were the owner and deliberately set up a chain here, it will definitely contain dangers.

With a thought, Emperor Roc immediately split out an Essence Soul avatar. He had a seventh-level Essence Soul. Apart from his true body in his homeworld and his true body in the outer realm, he could still use eight Essence Soul avatars.

However, his Essence Soul avatars were much weaker than his true bodies.

Swoosh.

Emperor Roc tried to use his Essence Soul avatar to fly forward, but the moment it flew out, the churning black fog instantly captured the Essence Soul avatar. The Essence Soul avatar froze as it plummeted, disappearing into the black fog.

It really does contain dangers. Emperor Roc didn’t mind it. He could recover quite fast from losing an Essence Soul avatar. He immediately sent out another Essence Soul avatar and let it step onto the chain.

After stepping on the chain, the black fog didn’t attack it, but the chain’s invisible force affected his Essence Soul avatar.

It didn’t destroy my Essence Soul avatar. This chain is indeed the most suitable path. Emperor Roc no longer hesitated as he stepped forward with his true body. I have to make every second count. According to Palace Lord’s instructions, this cave abode only allows us entry for a year. The lair is too complicated. I’ve been in here for more than half a year. I even killed two Tribulation Eminences during this time.

Yes, Emperor Roc had encountered enemies in the past half-year. One of them was only at the Second Tribulation realm, while the other was at the Third Tribulation realm. They were likely subordinates of Old Fiend Black Wind or Ta Gu.

As long as one encountered unfamiliar strangers in the cave abode, they would attack each other; only one of them could continue advancing. The other either died or gave up on advancing.

Boom!

Emperor Roc stepped on the blood-colored chain. At first, he felt relaxed, but the force exerted by the chains became more and more terrifying as he advanced. Emperor Roc also began to sway. He had to spread his golden wings out to withstand the force.

This... the lair’s obstruction is already this strong? Could it be that I’m almost at my limit? Emperor Roc was somewhat anxious. I haven’t obtained any treasures yet.

He resisted the force with all his might. As though he was affected by terrifying void turbulence, Emperor Roc spread his wings and tried his best to stabilize himself. His foot claws grabbed the chains. This was the only method he could use to stabilize himself. Once he fell, he would definitely be devoured by the black fog.

Emperor Roc was indeed talented in the void lineage. Although it was difficult, he still reached the other end.

I did it. Emperor Roc finally walked to the other end, feeling relieved.

At that moment, a black lotus seed flew out from the black fog and headed towards Emperor Roc.

After wandering for more than half a year, I finally obtained treasure in the cave abode.

Emperor Roc was somewhat excited. After receiving the black lotus seed, he realized that the lotus seed’s surface was covered in numerous golden runes. The runic patterns appeared inconspicuous because they were too tiny.

...

Palace Lord Snowjade was also roaming the lair, but he wanted to venture deeper.

Rumble!

Over a churning magma lake.

Snowjade stepped on the magma lake’s surface as he advanced.

“Palace Lord, I obtained a black lotus seed.” His subordinates hid an Essence Soul avatar each inside the grotto-heaven that Palace Lord Snowjade carried with him. His subordinates would report everything they had experienced in the cave abode. These subordinates were all at the Tribulation realm, so it was very easy for them to split out Essence Soul avatars.

“What’s the black lotus seed like?” asked Snowjade via voice transmission.

“It’s difficult for me to replicate the runic patterns on the lotus seed’s surface. I can only replicate its general appearance.” Emperor Roc’s Essence Soul avatar immediately replicated the black lotus seed’s appearance, allowing Snowjade to view it.

When Snowjade saw the lotus seed’s appearance, he became delighted. “Very good. Your current priority is to stay alive. If you encounter other Tribulation Eminences, you should admit defeat; don’t lose that lotus seed.”

“Yes,” responded Emperor Roc’s delighted Essence Soul avatar immediately.

It was enough for Emperor Roc to obtain the lotus seed.

Snowjade was in a good mood.

Although four of his nine subordinates had failed, the other five were still forging forward. Three of them had obtained treasures.

Golden Roc’s luck isn’t bad to have obtained a Tribulation Luck Lotus Seed. Snowjade stepped on the magma lake’s surface and continued advancing cautiously.

...

Swoosh. historical

Meng Chuan quickly advanced. The dangers in the lair’s earlier tunnels posed no threat to him. He could easily break through the tunnels’ obstructions with his Essence Soul World, allowing him to advance with ease.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A gray wind blew through the gaps in the tunnel, but it was blocked by the Essence Soul World’s many layers of obstruction. It failed to touch Meng Chuan at all.

Swoosh.

Meng Chuan phased into a blur as he advanced at high speeds.

Meng Chuan suddenly stopped and looked at an altar in front of him. Sitting on the altar was a bored alien Tribulation Eminence. This alien expert had a pair of snow-white wings and looked somewhat dejected. However, he couldn’t help but jump in fright when he saw Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World enveloped his surroundings; thus, this alien expert couldn’t see Meng Chuan’s appearance, but he could sense the huge difference in their order in life. This alien expert knew that the other party could crush him with a single finger.

“I’ve already taken the initiative to give up,” said the alien expert with a fawning smile. “To explore this cave abode, I didn’t bring any treasures with me. Senior, don’t worry about me. Just advance.”
