Chapter 593 Void

“My Essence Soul avatar can’t defeat it, but I’m quite good at escaping.” To his three companions, Meng Chuan suggested, “As long as everyone hides in my grotto-heaven treasure, I can escape the forbidden creature if I escape with all my might.”

His Essence Soul avatar was forced to flee.

“Haha, there’s no need for that.” Meng Hu was filled with fighting spirit. He smiled and said, “I haven’t fought any forbidden creatures since I came to this ruin world.”

Fu Sui was rather confident. “Brother Eastcalm, let’s see what we can do.”

Black Wind said, “Brother Eastcalm, tell me what means are available to that forbidden creature.”

“Its body is very strange. None of my moves can injure it,” said Meng Chuan with a frown. “It’s as though it’s an illusion-a phantom that you can only see. Any attack will pass through it without posing any threat to it.” “Oh?”

“It can’t be injured?”

Fu Sui guessed, “Is it hiding in the depths of the void? Or is it hiding in the spatial layer gaps that are beyond the true void? Maybe the one in front of you wasn’t its true body?”

To Fifth Tribulation Eminences, there were many methods to have illusory bodies.

“I couldn’t figure it out.” Meng Chuan shook his head gently. As he was getting closer and closer to grasping a Sixth Tribulation law, Meng Chuan was very confident of himself. However, the forbidden creature puzzled Meng Chuan.

“Many forbidden creatures are very strange. They represent a strange phenomenon in the River of Spacetime,” said Meng Hu with a smile. “However, they rely on their innate techniques. Us cultivators are the ones who truly grasp the essence of strength. At the same level, they aren’t our match.”

As they spoke, a blurry figure flew over from afar.

“It’s here.” Meng Chuan looked into the distance.

Meng Hu and company also looked over.

It was a humanoid creature with purple skin and gray-green robes. Its eyes were cold.

The ruin world’s suppression was very strong. Although this forbidden creature traveled quickly, it was slower than Meng Chuan.

“Let’s see what you’re made of.” Meng Hu was rather confident. Following that, he let out a low grunt as two invisible waves spewed out from his nostrils. The moment the two waves appeared, they arrived in front of the forbidden creature.

The green-robed, purple-skinned figure didn’t sense anything as it continued flying and collided with the two waves.

Meng Hu was astonished. “It really does seem illusory. I can’t touch its body at all.” “Let me try,” said Black Wind as he punched out.

Boom!

A black fist shadow distorted the void and struck the forbidden creature.

Back when Black Wind explored this ruin, he had lost a true body. However, his realm had greatly improved. He now had the confidence to suppress Palace Lord Snowjade. However, the ferocious black fist projection didn’t injure the forbidden creature at all. All it did was pass through it.

“I didn’t touch it at all. It’s as though I hit the air.” Black Wind was somewhat astonished.

“Leave it to me.” Meng Hu turned solemn. A diamond-shaped crystal appeared at his glabella. Countless mystic runes surfaced on the crystal, causing his strength to increase greatly.

Black Wind and Fu Sui watched this scene with anticipation.

Meng Chuan watched curiously. Is this Heavenly Dream Divine General’s strength?

Every high-level world had a very rich heritage. Cultivation systems, special legacies, rare treasures, reincarnations… In many aspects, they stood high and mighty above most cultivators.

The Heavenly Dream Realm also had special legacies. Heavenly Dream Divine General was one of them.

It was said that Meng Hu had grasped two Fifth Tribulation laws. Due to his talent and cultivation path, he had luckily passed the Heavenly Dream Divine General test and became one. Although his cultivation realm was still low and could only unleash a portion of Heavenly Dream Divine General’s strength, his strength was enough to stand at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation realm.

Even Meng Chuan was barely on par with Meng Hu. Break! The thin Meng Hu stood rooted to the ground. He gathered his strength with his left hand and punched out with his right.

Boom!

The void in the ruin world trembled. The forbidden creature charged over without even bothering to dodge. However, when the punch landed on its body

“Oh?” The green-robed, purple-skinned forbidden creature revealed a look of pain. Its body distorted in the void and froze for a moment. However, it quickly recovered. The ferocity in its eyes intensified as it pounced towards Meng Hu, who posed the greatest threat.

It didn’t die? Meng Hu was surprised that his punch didn’t kill his opponent.

Meng Chuan was somewhat enlightened as he watched from the side. The primary focus of Meng Hu’s punch is the void lineage, but its strength is unimaginable. The super-powerful force affected this forbidden creature’s body structure. It can be said to have broken the laws with raw strength.

Energy could affect spacetime. When one’s strength reached a certain level, they would break the laws with raw strength.

However, the forbidden creature’s injuries aren’t serious enough. It will quickly recover. Meng Chuan knew that things were going south.

Boom! Boom!

Meng Hu and the forbidden creature had their eyes on each other. Meng Hu took the initiative to meet it in midair as they engaged in battle.

Rip!

The green-robed, purple-skinned forbidden creature arrived in front of Meng Hu. With a swipe of its claws, a wound appeared on Meng Hu’s chest. Just as blood flowed out, the wound rapidly healed.

“Die.” Meng Hu went mad as well. The crystal at his glabella swirled with a terrifying might. He pummeled the forbidden creature, causing it to distort in pain, but it quickly recovered. Meng Hu looked somewhat miserable. Although the wounds on his body healed rapidly, he had dozens of wounds on his body in the blink of an eye.

“Let’s attack together,” Fu Sui said solemnly. Since Meng Hu couldn’t kill the forbidden creature with his full strength, the only thing they could do was attack together.

Black Wind’s moves were violent and unpredictable.

Fu Sui also used his saber art. His saber art couldn’t be seen with the naked eye. Saber beams landed on the forbidden creature. “Go.” Meng Chuan cast the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell, and a Magic Awl instantly struck the forbidden creature’s body.

Although it shattered, it still made the forbidden creature cry painfully. “Ah!”

Although Meng Hu’s head-on attack could injure the forbidden creature with brute force, the injuries could only be considered superficial wounds.

Meng Chuan’s Magic Awl caused 100 times more pain to the forbidden creature as it drilled deep into its mind.

After the Magic Awl shattered, Meng Chuan condensed another Magic Awl. One after another, they blasted into the forbidden creature’s body. “Ah!” The forbidden creature screamed shrilly. It abandoned Meng Hu and attempted to kill Meng Chuan.

“Don’t think of leaving.” Meng Hu was indeed powerful in close combat. He attacked the forbidden creature with his moves, trying to slow it down.

Meng Chuan also used his movement technique to pull Fu Sui and Black Wind away from the forbidden creature.

“Ah!” In the ruin world, a crazy forbidden creature would only act according to its instincts and devour other lifeforms! Meng Chuan’s Magic Awl had caused it immense pain, yet it couldn’t kill Meng Chuan and company, so it immediately fled into the distance as it cried out in pain.

Meng Hu didn’t continue pestering it and allowed it to escape.

Phew. Meng Hu heaved a sigh of relief and dispelled the crystal between his eyebrows. “I only managed to injure this forbidden creature when using all my strength. It’s impossible to kill it.”

“At the very least, you could injure it. We couldn’t even touch it,” said Fu Sui with a smile. “Brother Eastcalm’s Essence Soul weapon is quite powerful. The forbidden creature couldn’t take it and fled.”

“It only suffered some pain.” Meng Chuan sighed. “If it was clear-headed and rational, it would’ve been much harder to deal with. It wouldn’t have left so easily either.”

Meng Hu and company agreed.

With rationality and lucidity, the forbidden creature would pose a much greater threat.

“Let’s continue our journey. Don’t stay here for too long. The battle might have attracted other forbidden creatures,” said Fu Sui.

“Let’s go.”

The subsequent journey was smooth. Before arriving at the black mountain, they didn’t encounter any new forbidden creatures. This was because Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul avatars intercepted them.

“We’re here.” The four of them arrived at the foot of the black mountain.

“The two of you can try stepping on this mountain.” Fu Sui pointed at his feet. They were still standing on land. A few dozen feet away was a black rock. It was within the range of the black mountain and the land-a very clear boundary. Meng Chuan and Meng Hu exchanged looks. They took a few steps forward and stepped onto the black rock.

The moment they stepped on it, Meng Chuan heard the sound of mountains and rivers in the mountain. He heard the howling wind in the mountain forest and the sound of leaves falling. There were various floral fragrances, aromas, and sounds.

Meng Chuan felt extremely comfortable. His Essence Soul became ethereal. At that moment, his train of thought became much faster.

This… This? Meng Chuan found it unbelievable. My Essence Soul is even more ethereal now. My mind has become faster. I can sense the laws around me. My inspiration is surging. It’s like I ate a rare spirit fruit that can assist my cultivation.

For some rare treasures, eating one was nearly equivalent to experiencing an epiphany.

Although it wasn’t exactly an epiphany, it was very potent.

I’ll probably be able to comprehend a Sixth Tribulation law in a month or two simply by standing here. Meng Chuan understood this point. He was already very close to mastering a Sixth Tribulation law. If he were in the outside world, he would be able to grasp the law in a few decades or even a century. However, he realized how beneficial just stepping into the black mountain was to his cultivation. The time he needed to comprehend a Sixth Tribulation law had naturally been shortened drastically.
