Nothing in the ice river could be destroyed.

Even Seventh Tribulation Eminences couldnt chip off a corner of the iceberg even when using all their strength. They couldnt scoop away any of its water either.

One cant obtain any treasures here, nor are there any cultivation opportunities. One cant leave once they enter. Therefore, no factions occupy this place. Meng Chuan smiled. Essence Soul Tribulation Eminences could casually send an Essence Soul avatar to probe this place, but Physical Body Tribulation Eminences couldnt do so.

Ive broadened my horizons. Time to focus on cultivation.

Meng Chuan focused on walking through the nebula and carefully sensed the changes in the nebulas void. His Essence Soul World spread out, and he used the spatial laws profundities to resist the influence of the nebulas void. He tried his best to walk toward the ice river.

1,500 kilometers, 1,400 kilometers, 1,350 kilometers

He was getting closer and closer. Occasionally, he would fail and be teleported hundreds of billions of kilometers away, but Meng Chuan persisted.

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. This place suits me quite well.

The Ice River Nebula didnt have a spatial law guiding it. It was just an array formation set up by a mysterious Eighth Tribulation Eminence to prevent outsiders from approaching. The array formations might was stronger in the vicinity of the ice rivers palace.

However, Meng Chuan had already accumulated a lot of insights. To him, he didnt need guidance. He had enough guidance from the Void Catalog. Instead, he needed to crack the Nebula Array Formation so that he could familiarize himself with the use of the spatial laws profundities. Meng Chuans understanding of the spatial law became

Meng Chuan focused on his cultivation. Meanwhile, on a Supreme Yin Star in the distant Square Razor-Clam River Zone.

There was a somewhat hidden cave abode here. The cave abode spanned half a million kilometers, and it was also protected by large array formations. Even a Fifth Tribulation Eminence would die if they entered by mistake.

In a corner of the cave abode was a large cluster of circular buildings. Each circular building spanned over 100 feet. These circular buildings were where the Imperial Lords lived.

An Imperial Lord lived in every building.

These Imperial Lords had different appearances. They came from different worlds and were of different species, but they now had a common identity-servants of Black Fiend Hall.

Theres still 188 years left. In one of the circular buildings, a red-robed cultivator with a large head and a small body sat cross-legged. On his huge head, three eyes narrowed slightly. Ill be able to regain my freedom after serving Black Fiend Hall for 1,000 years. I only have 188 years left before I regain my freedom.

Black Fiend Hall sure is greedy. Im required to pay 200 Outer Realm Essence Crystals and still have to serve them for 1,000 years without any compensation. They wont give us any benefits during these 1,000 years. However, they keep their promises. As long as we serve them loyally, they wont take away my remaining treasures.

The red-robed cultivator was rather glad.

Black Fiend Hall was willing to give the Imperial Lords a way out during the massacres because they needed some minions to carry out their large-scale operations. Otherwise, many cultivators would flee from the bustling trading planets. Without enough subordinates, it would be difficult for them to set up enough array formations. Most cultivators would be able to escape.

By not taking away the Imperial Lords remaining treasures, this would give them hope. All of Black Fiend Halls members had to stick to this rule. Otherwise, the captured Imperial Lords wouldnt be loyal to them. They would rather self-destruct and destroy their outer realm true bodies.

Some of Black Fiend Hall members also broke the rules and plundered all the treasures that the Imperial Lords had after they served for 1,000 years. It was fine if such matters could be kept completely confidential, but Black Fiend Hall would severely punish them once it was exposed. It would be difficult for them to do anything in the River of Spacetime. Therefore, Black Fiend Hall members would not break the rules without sufficient temptation and special reasons.

If it werent for the sake of protecting this treasure, why would I be willing to be a servant for 1,000 years? The red-robed cultivator sensed the treasure in his storage space.

It was a picture. It was also the greatest opportunity he received while roaming the outer realm. After obtaining the map, his strength improved greatly. He planned on returning to his homeworld with the map and placing the treasure there. However, he was too slow. With his strength, it would take him more than 300 years to cross several river systems and return to his homeworld. Halfway through his journey, he encountered Black Fiend Halls array formation. Black Fiend Hall had set up an inescapable net in the outer realm in the corresponding area in the River of Spacetime. He happened to barge in and became a captive.

All these years, Ive never dared to use this treasure. Bear with it a little longer. The red-robed cultivators three eyes were extremely cold.

In the past, he had killed and plundered as he pleased. In his homeworld, he was the only Imperial Lord. Who knew that he would become a captive? He had had enough of these stifling days.

These Imperial Lord servants were putting up with it because Black Fiend Hall had given them hope.

Three figures sat in the garden in the middle of the cave abode.

The owner of Changpo Planet traded with us and is willing to offer Changpo Planet.

I never expected this old fellow to sell out the tens of thousands of cultivators on Changpo Planet when hes nearing the end of his lifespan. I think hes more suitable to join our Black Fiend Hall.

He has zero worries when nearing the end of his lifespan. Its normal for him to take the opportunity to earn a big sum of money. However, the tens of thousands of cultivators hes selling out come from an Eternal Tower branch.

However, the Eternal Tower branch can contact its headquarters. Once we attack or the old fellow on Changpo Planet hands things over, Eternal Towers headquarters will immediately receive news. We have to be certain that no Sixth Tribulation Eminence will rush over to stop us. The owner of Changpo Planet offered it to us with both hands. Whos going to be a busybody? Slaughtering tens of thousands of cultivators. This matter has to be reported. Only if the higher-ups agree can we do it.

Black Fiend Hall has too many rules.

Fool, the rules protect your life.

After a brief discussion, they quickly reported the matter.

Almost all Sixth and Seventh Tribulation Eminences were members of Nebula Palace. Be it good or evil, Nebula Palace didnt reject anyone.

Black Fiend Hall members also occupied an area in Nebula Palace.

In one of the halls.

Theres news from Square Razor-Clam River Zone. Cave Lord Changpo wants to sell the entire Changpo Planet to us, including the tens of thousands of cultivators on it. Check if its possible.

There are eight Sixth Tribulation Eminences in the area around Square Razor-Clam River Zone. According to Eternal Towers standard operating procedures, they will inform these eight The other seven are nothing. They are all Sixth Tribulation Eminences that have cultivated for many years. Theres no reason for them to not take action easily.

We should be worried about a newly-advanced Sixth Tribulation Eminence, City Lord Eastcalm, instead. He has an Essence Soul avatar in Taidong River Zone. Taidong River Zone is close to Square Razor-Clam River Zone. Eternal Tower will likely issue him the mission. Not long ago, he attacked and killed one of our Black Fiend Hall teams.

How many times has he stopped our Black Fiend Hall?

Just once.

The five Sixth Tribulation Eminences guarding the hall flipped through the intelligence. The purple-robed man found the relevant piece of intelligence and nodded. Pass down the orders. We can accept this transaction.

What if City Lord Eastcalm attacks again? A gray-robed woman frowned.

He has nothing to do with Ingenious Dharma Planet and Changpo Planet. For him to stop us twice in such a short period of time means that he has deep enmity towards our Black Fiend Hall. Furthermore, it would mean extreme boldness, said the purple-robed man indifferently. We should take action and teach this City Lord Eastcalm the rules.

The other members nodded.

Although Black Fiend Hall was infamous, they followed the rules. They typically wouldnt attack a Sixth Tribulation Eminences faction directly.

Black Fiend Hall could tolerate Sixth Tribulation Eminences occasionally attacking to save a friendly faction. After all, they didnt care if a few Fifth Tribulation Eminences died. However, if they had nothing to do with each other, Black Fiend Hall would bare its fangs when a Sixth Tribulation Eminence took the initiative to accept missions and repeatedly wrecked their plans.

In my opinion, City Lord Eastcalm is very low-key in his intelligence records. He doesnt

Eternal Towers and White Avian Halls missions. He probably wont clash with our Black Fiend Hall twice in a short period of time, said a withered grass lifeform with a smile. Of course, it will be even more interesting if he takes action.
