Chapter 548 Cultivation Years
In the blink of an eye, three years had pa.s.sed.
Ever since his son, Meng An, headed to the outer realm, Meng Chuan’s true body in the outer realm’s Ancient Magus River Zone had been cultivating in the Chaos Hole’s depths for a long time. He cultivated in a region where time flowed 70-fold faster. Although he could stay in a region where time flowed 80-fold faster with his greatly enhanced body and Essence Soul, the region where time flowed 70-fold faster placed a smaller burden on him. It was much more suitable for long-term cultivation.
In fact, cultivating in a Chaos Hole’s depths would affect one’s Essence Soul and mental state. Weak Tribulation Eminences didn’t dare to cultivate in a Chaos Hole’s depths for too long. However, Ancestral Master Archean Eon had never mentioned this in his dossiers. This was because Ancestral Master Archean Eon knew very well that the Chaos Hole’s influence was an external one.
A harsh environment could temper one’s mind. If one’s mind could withstand a Chaos Hole’s influence, it would only improve further. If one couldn’t even withstand a Chaos Hole’s influence, their achievements would be limited.
Meng Chuan had originally been affected for over 300 years before breaking free of the Chaos Hole’s influence. After painting ‘Backbone,’ his Essence Soul had improved greatly. The Chaos Hole’s influence on my mental state is a form of tempering to the present me. My mind will only become stronger. Due to the fact his mind could be strengthened, Meng Chuan liked to cultivate in the Chaos Hole.
Powerful swords needed to be tempered and sharpened. Suitable tempering only boosted one’s cultivation.
In reality, Meng Chuan had been cultivating in the Chaos Hole for over 200 years despite only three years pa.s.sing outside.
His fourth Essence Soul Tribulation had finally descended.
The first three Essence Soul Tribulations were separated by a year at least. Therefore, Meng Chuan reached the Essence Soul Third Tribulation realm at the fastest speed possible.
After the third tribulation…
Every tribulation was separated by 100 years at least.
As for Meng Chuan, 200 years pa.s.sed since he transcended the third tribulation before the fourth Essence Soul Tribulation finally descended upon him.
My fourth Essence Soul Tribulation didn’t arrive in the shortest time possible.
This means that my Essence Soul is probably at the Fourth Tribulation realm. It still hasn’t reached the Fifth Tribulation realm yet. Meng Chuan understood this point. If one’s mind, Essence Soul World, and various aspects had reached the Fifth Tribulation realm, the fourth tribulation would arrive in the shortest time possible. Of course, he also understood the general level of his Essence Soul because of his experiments at Heaven and Earth Great Hall.
Only when the fourth Essence Soul Tribulation descended upon Meng Chuan did he truly understand why Tribulation Eminences were afraid of Heavenly Tribulations.
He transcended the first three tribulations very easily. However, the fourth tribulation made him suffer quite a bit.
Boom!
His sea of consciousness had long transformed into an Essence Soul World.
In the Essence Soul World, there were gra.s.slands, deserts, flowers, birds, and beasts. There were also battles between beasts, as well as living beings surviving inside…
Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul transformed into a person sitting cross-legged in the middle of the world.
On this day, fire descended from the sky.
The flames descended upon the Essence Soul World in his sea of consciousness, burning a 50-kilometer radius around his Essence Soul.
Boom!
There was no way for Meng Chuan to escape the tribulation. The flames burned every inch of his Essence Soul, preventing any Essence Soul thoughts from escaping.
He could only sit cross-legged and silently resist.
Boundless pain filled his consciousness. This was the highest level of pain Meng Chuan had ever experienced. The flames burned every Essence Soul thought, causing them to collapse in terrifying pain. New Essence Soul thoughts were born after every collapse.
Fire of the heart. Burning my Essence Soul is also a way to temper my heart. Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul sat cross-legged in his sea of consciousness’s Essence Soul World. Despite the pain spreading, his heart remained as cold as ice.
He had experienced too much since he was young. His willpower and mind were already extremely strong.
