Chapter 606: Fusui's Purpose

Meng Chuan, Meng Hu, and Old Demon Heifeng greeted each other. Having explored the relic world together, their relationship had grown much closer.

"Heifeng, you are much more formidable than I am," Meng Hu said with emotion, looking at Old Demon Heifeng. "I only walked on that path for a little over five years before choosing to give up. You, however, persevered on the same path for thirty years. I truly admire you!"

Meng Hu knew very well that the longer one walked on the path, the greater the risk of losing oneself.

"But I still couldn't hold on," Heifeng said, shaking his head without elaborating further. He then looked at Meng Chuan, who was approaching. "Brother Dongning is truly impressive; he's still persevering in the relic world."

"The path I'm on isn't the same as yours, and I'm much slower than you were," Meng Chuan chuckled.

"I was slow, but you're even slower," Old Demon Heifeng admitted with a nod.

When he chose to give up, he could sense Meng Chuan's location through karmic connection. Meng Chuan had covered much less distance than he had.

After chatting for a few moments, the three walked to a corner of the Cang Alliance space where Fu Sui was sitting alone.

"Look at Fu Sui. Now that he wields Six Tribulation Realm power, his demeanor is completely different from before," Old Demon Heifeng transmitted.

"Indeed, it's different," Meng Hu's eyes narrowed slightly as well.

Meng Chuan also noticed this, but he understood. The might of Six Tribulation Realm mighty figures was far greater, so it was natural for Fu Sui, having stepped one foot into the Six Tribulation Realm, to carry himself with a loftier attitude.

"Please, have a seat, everyone," Fu Sui said with a slight smile from where he sat.

"Brother Fu Sui, you're completely different from us now," Old Demon Heifeng complimented. "The people you associate with are all Six Tribulation Realm mighty figures."

"Indeed," Fu Sui nodded slightly.

"I do know some Six Tribulation Realm friends, and I even had the good fortune to visit the 'Yellow-Clad Dean'," Fu Sui acknowledged.

"The Yellow-Clad Dean?" Meng Chuan, Meng Hu, and Old Demon Heifeng were all startled.

Among the top powers of the River of Spacetime, there was the 'Yellow-Clad Academy'. It was rumored that the academy currently had two Seven Tribulation Realm mighty figures, serving as the Dean and Vice Dean, respectively.

The Yellow-Clad Dean was undoubtedly one of the most formidable beings in the entire River of Spacetime.

"Seven Tribulation Realm?"

Meng Chuan, Meng Hu, and Old Demon Heifeng were all deeply moved. In the current era, very few Seven Tribulation Realm mighty figures had emerged in the entire River of Spacetime. Moreover, Seven Tribulation Realm cultivators pursued their own paths and had very little free time, making it incredibly difficult to meet them. Looking across the entire River of Spacetime, the number of Five Tribulation Realm mighty figures was vast, like a sea of stars, making it almost impossible for a Seven Tribulation Realm figure to grant a private audience. Yet, once Fu Sui could be considered a Six Tribulation Realm combatant, he gained the opportunity to meet a Seven Tribulation Realm mighty figure.

After all, in the top powers of the River of Spacetime, Six Tribulation Realm combatants were considered vital pillars.

"It was partly due to luck that I was able to visit the Yellow-Clad Dean," Fu Sui said with a faint smile. "By the way, I sensed that Heifeng has also left the relic world. So, now only Dongning remains inside?"

"Yes, only Dongning is left," Old Demon Heifeng nodded.

"I'm just a slow mover," Meng Chuan replied.

Fu Sui's gaze swept over the three present, and he smiled. "We each chose one of the three paths on the main peak of the Black Mountain. Let's briefly exchange information now. The first path I took was indeed a continuous state of enlightenment. I maintained that enlightenment for a full twelve years, immediately grasping Six Tribulation Realm rules and almost comprehending the cultivation method for the physical body. The only drawback was some damage to my primordial spirit, but the damage was tolerable."

"Brother Fu Sui's progress has indeed been rapid, going from mastering two Five Tribulation Realm Realm rules to now mastering complete Six Tribulation Realm rules. Perhaps I should have been more adventurous and chosen the first path," Old Demon Heifeng said, feigning a bit of regret. "I took the second path, possessing mighty figures one after another. While my strength increased significantly, there was a risk of losing myself, and eventually, I was forced to give up."

"You've had a breakthrough in strength, haven't you?" Fu Sui asked with a smile.

"I've mastered three Five Tribulation Realm rules," Old Demon Heifeng nodded.

Once he completely left, he would be able to remain clear-headed.

Now, Old Demon Heifeng needed to abandon the paths of the six mighty figures he had possessed and forge his own path based on the three rules he had comprehended. Only then could he reach the Six Tribulation Realm.

"Although it was a bit troublesome, the gains were still significant. I must thank Brother Fu Sui for this," Old Demon Heifeng said with a smile. "Heifeng wouldn't be where I am today without Brother Fu Sui."

"Haha..." Fu Sui laughed.

A hint of unwillingness lingered in his heart.

It seemed the cost of the second path was much lower.

"I'm not as good as Brother Heifeng; I persevered for a much shorter time and even got somewhat lost," Meng Hu said, shaking his head. "I still haven't resolved the lingering effects of being lost."

Meng Hu only told half the story.

In reality, after discussions among the high-ranking members of the Heavenly Dream Realm, it had been decided to open the 'Hundred Generations Dreamscape' trial for Meng Hu. This trial, involving refining the mind through a hundred lifetimes, would render the mental confusion from possession negligible if he succeeded.

However, if he failed, he would be completely lost in the Hundred Generations Dreamscape.

The mental confusion caused by the Hundred Generations Dreamscape was far more severe than that from possession.

Meng Hu was now very anxious about his future.

"Lost?" Fu Sui asked. "Did you gain anything then?"

"My cultivation did improve somewhat," Meng Hu nodded. "I now master three rules."

"There are gains and losses," Fu Sui said with a smile. "I'm sure with the methods of the Heavenly Dream Realm, the danger of being lost can be resolved."

Old Demon Heifeng was secretly astonished upon hearing this.

It sounded like Meng Hu's mental confusion was considerably more severe than his own.

"What about you, Dongning?" Fu Sui asked, looking at Meng Chuan.

"As you all know, walking on the third path, the sounds affect one's mind and consciousness," Meng Chuan chuckled. "The higher you go, the greater the influence."

"Did your strength break through?" Fu Sui pressed.

"My strength hasn't changed much," Meng Chuan replied, shaking his head. "On the third path, I had no time to cultivate; I could only focus on resisting the primordial spirit attacks. However, over the past thirty years, my mind and will have been tempered and have made some progress."

"Only a slight improvement in your mind and will?"

Fu Sui, Old Demon Heifeng, and Meng Hu all felt that this path was somewhat disadvantageous. After all, there were many ways to gradually improve one's mind and will.

In comparison, the realm of techniques had a more direct impact on strength.

"No other benefits?" Old Demon Heifeng inquired.

"None," Meng Chuan shook his head.

"It seems one might truly need to reach the very end to pass the trial and gain significant benefits," Meng Hu mused.

Fu Sui nodded and said, "As we anticipated, the three paths on the main peak of the Black Mountain each come with both blessings and misfortunes. By the way, the reason I invited the three of you here this time is to ask for your help."

"Ask us for help?" Meng Chuan, Meng Hu, and Old Demon Heifeng exchanged glances.

"I possess a secret method to enter the relic world," Fu Sui explained. "Next, I plan to invite more Five Tribulation Realm cultivators to enter. Of course, I won't take them in for free; each of them will need to pay a sufficient amount of Outer Realm Yuan Crystals."

Meng Chuan, Old Demon Heifeng, and Meng Hu all understood.

Was he planning to reap significant benefits from this?

They could easily guess that he would earn a lot. However, since only Fu Sui knew the secret method of entry, their envy was useless.

"Why not invite Six Tribulation Realm cultivators in?" Meng Hu inquired. "The main peak of the Black Mountain should also be useful for them."

"To be honest, my secret method can only bring Five Tribulation Realm cultivators in, and it even has other restrictions," Fu Sui replied. He had kept the secret method for entering the relic world strictly confidential.

Fu Sui looked at the three of them. "I will inform the Cang Alliance members, and I need the three of you to also spread the word to all Five Tribulation Realm members of the Cang Alliance. For example, Brother Heifeng, you can say that you entered the relic world twice, progressing from mastering one rule to mastering three rules, and that you experienced a 'danger of being lost' on the second path of the Black Mountain's main peak, but it currently has no effect on your strength."

"Alright," Old Demon Heifeng agreed with a smile. It was the truth, and Old Demon Heifeng was willing to help, especially since Fu Sui was now considered to have Six Tribulation Realm strength.

"Brother Meng Hu, you can say that you progressed from mastering two Five Tribulation Realm rules to three Five Tribulation Realm rules, and that you took the second path on the Black Mountain's main peak, where there was a danger of being lost, but you remain clear-headed now," Fu Sui said, looking at Meng Hu.

Meng Hu pondered for a moment. "I will warn them about the danger of being lost."

"That's fine," Fu Sui nodded. "I don't need you to lie. Brother Dongning, just tell the truth."

The main attraction for cultivators would be the first two paths; the third path having less appeal was not an issue.

Especially since the first path allowed for a continuous state of enlightenment.

Fu Sui, having mastered Six Tribulation Realm rules through it, was a successful example.

"Okay," Meng Chuan nodded.

Meng Chuan acknowledged. Regardless, Fu Sui had brought him into the relic world, so he had to recognize this favor and help if he could.

He would not lie, simply stating what needed to be said.

"In one day, you should relay the message to all Five Tribulation Realm members of the Cang Alliance," Fu Sui instructed. "Of course, please send me the content of your message beforehand. I will remember your favors."

A moment later.

Meng Hu and Old Demon Heifeng both departed.

"Brother Fu Sui, you asked me to stay. What is it?" Meng Chuan asked, looking at Fu Sui.

"Dongning, when do you plan to leave the relic world?" Fu Sui asked with a smile.

"I don't know," Meng Chuan replied, shaking his head. "I'll persevere for as long as I can."

Upon hearing this reply, Fu Sui frowned slightly but still said, "To be frank with you, only ten cultivators can be in the relic world at any given time. I intend to send other Five Tribulation Realm cultivators inside. If you remain there, you'll continuously occupy a slot. Given that the third path offers very little help to you, I would appreciate it if you could leave the relic world as soon as possible."
