Chapter 1309 : Beihai Great Tuna

Seeing this, Eldrin did not hesitate in the slightest as he took the Dao Origin of the Purple Radiance Thunder Dragon.

Among all the treasures, this strand of Dao Origin and the Violet Sky Thunder Dragon Mace stood as the most precious, their values likely on par with each other.

However, in Eldrin's view, while the Heaven-Splitting Treasure was precious, it remained merely an external object after all—unlike this Source of the Dao, which could tangibly deepen his own foundations.

If this object were to be entrusted to a suitable individual, it might very well give rise to a 7-Tribulation Immortal.

Seeing Eldrin take the Purple Radiance Thunder Dragon's Dao Origin, Sun Ji did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately claimed the Violet Sky Thunder Dragon Mace.

This was the only mid-grade Heaven-Opening Treasure. Although it did not align with the rules she cultivated, its value remained incomparably precious. Naturally, she had no reason to relinquish it.

The remaining Xuan Gods, seeing this, immediately seized the Dao Origin of the White Nether Ancestor.

He was originally an Earth Immortal who had opened up 3 celestial layers. Refining this Earth Immortal’s 3-layered Dao Source would undoubtedly greatly strengthen his foundation, and it might even allow him to break through to the middle stage of Earth Immortal.

Seeing this, the last Earthspring Elder had no choice but to carefully weigh his options. After much deliberation, he finally selected the Heaven-Sundering Artifact—White Nether Life-Death Tome (Magic Treasure).

This individual's combat prowess was rather mediocre, and the merits he had earned in this battle were not substantial. After exchanging for a single Heaven-Sundering Artifact, the majority of his accumulated merits had already been depleted. At best, he could only acquire 1 more Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure.

Among the remaining Primordial Chaos Treasures, only the Celestial Vajra Indestructible Seal, the World-Annihilating Thunderclap Scroll, and the Minor Heavenly Star Formation remained.

Without the slightest hesitation, Eldrin exchanged it for the Minor Heavenly Cycle Star Formation.

This Minor Cycle of Stars Grand Formation was composed of over 3 100 immortal-grade formation banners. If integrated into the Grand Cycle of Stars Formation of the Abyssal Return Sea, it would undoubtedly amplify the Grand Cycle of Stars Formation’s power exponentially.

After exchanging for this treasure, Eldrin said, "We urgently need the supreme-grade Source of Dao. I shall not intervene in the remaining 2 Heaven-Opening Treasures—they are yours to claim."

"Excellent!"

Upon witnessing this, both Sun-Childe and the Great Mystery Deity revealed faint smiles.

Although the Supreme Grade Dao Source was precious, its usefulness to Earth Immortals like them was actually quite limited.

On the contrary, a supreme Heaven-Opening Treasure could greatly enhance their combat prowess.

Rigil, having opened the Sixth Heaven, possessed no shortage of Heaven-Opening Treasures. Yet she exchanged her remaining merit points for the Heavenly Indestructible Seal and casually tossed it to Lucida for refinement.

Taixuan Divine Spirit directly took possession of the Annihilating World Thunder Diagram, his face revealing undisguised delight.

At this point, the Divine Sovereign of Tai Xuan had exhausted all his accumulated merits. Yet he had obtained a Genesis Dao Source along with a low-grade Genesis Treasure, making his harvest truly abundant. The path to breaking through to the mid-stage Earth Immortal realm now lay clearly before him.

After distributing these treasures, Eldrin turned his gaze toward the remaining supreme-grade immortal treasures.

Compared to the Heaven-Splitting Immortal Treasures, these supreme-grade immortal treasures were far more abundant. Among them were 16 supreme-grade Dao Origins, 20-5 supreme-grade Immortal Artifacts, 16 fully refined 4 Extremities Pillars, and 12 Post-Celestial Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root).

Among these treasures, the most precious was naturally the Dao Origin of Youtai'ao.

Although this object was merely a supreme-grade Dao Source, it had been formed from the dao sublimation of an 8-Tribulation Demonic Immortal. It was even rarer than a superior-grade World-Creation Treasure. For a Half-Step Earth Immortal, it was a peerless treasure, yet it held no use for an Earth Immortal Patriarch. Thus, its true value remained difficult to ascertain.

For Eldrin (Person Name), even if someone offered a supreme-grade Heaven-Opening Treasure in exchange for this object, he would never part with it—naturally, there was no reason to relinquish it.

After taking away Youtai'ao's Dao Origin, Eldrin turned his attention to the remaining rare treasures and directly exchanged for 5 Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots. For ordinary half-step Earth Immortals, the fully refined 4 Extremities Pillars would be more practical, but Eldrin had greater need for these 5 Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots.

These 5 Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) were all suited for world-creation, among which Eldrin (Person Name) intended to bring back the 4 top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) for cultivation.

A supreme-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), known by the Xuanwu Patriarch as the "Great Tidal Elm of the Northern Sea."

This tree is also known as the 'Northern Xuanwu Ancient Tree'. Together with the Primordial Chaos Ancient Maple, the 'Fire Phoenix Parasol Tree', and the Eastern Immortality Ancient Tree, they are revered as the 4 Divine Ancient Trees, making them the most suitable spiritual roots for serving as the 4 Extremities Pillars.

With this final ancient tree now gathered, Eldrin was thoroughly satisfied.

At this point, Eldrin had nearly exhausted all his accumulated merits. He cast a glance toward Lyra and the others,

He then said, "As for the rest, you may exchange them as you see fit."

"Many thanks, Fellow Daoist."

Hearing this, all the Quasi-Earth Immortals revealed smiles and began exchanging treasures 1 after another.

This time, the rewards were immense. Among the 13 Half-Step Earth Immortals who participated in the battle, aside from the 2 who fell, the remaining 11 each obtained 1 or 2 supreme-grade immortal treasures.

Among them, Lyra (Person Name) and Qingji, both 6-tribulation immortals, could each exchange for 4 supreme-grade immortal treasures. They directly joined forces to acquire the Dao Origin of the 5-Element Heavenly Dragon, and with the remainder, obtained 3 more supreme-grade immortal treasures.

These 3 immortal treasures were none other than the supreme source energies of Jia Wood, Bing Fire, and Ren Water—priceless treasures for cultivating the Primordial Chaos Unification Qi divine art.

Kael and Chen Qiyuan each exchanged for a supreme-grade Dao Source and a supreme-grade immortal treasure, making their gains truly immense.

After all the exchanges were completed, Eldrin noticed that 1 supreme Dao Origin and several supreme immortal treasures remained.

This took Eldrin by slight surprise. That supreme immortal treasures remained was within his expectations, but the fact that even the supremely precious Dao Origins were left behind was something he hadn't anticipated.

He glanced around at the crowd, then quickly regained his composure.

The Half-Step Earth Immortals present would first exchange for the 4 Extremities Pillars, and only then for the Dao Origin and supreme immortal treasures.

Many of them had exchanged for the 4 Extremities Pillars, only to realize they no longer possessed the capacity to replace their Dao Origin.

With this thought in mind, Eldrin retrieved that wisp of Dao Origin and spoke, "I shall exchange this for Faith Silver. The Faith Silver shall be preserved alongside the remaining immortal treasures."

"To be handed over when the reincarnations of 9 Wonders and Dawnfriend return."

Everyone nodded at this, for Jiu Shu and Xu Ming were the 2 Half-Step Earth Immortals who had fallen in this battle.

Fearing that their absence might lead to neglect, the group decided to entrust these celestial treasures to the Glazed Paradise for safekeeping until the great calamity subsided. They would retrieve the artifacts from the Glazed Paradise only after the duo had ascended to immortality and returned.

After all, with the status of Eldrin, it was beneath her to covet a mere dozen or so Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasures.

Thus, the group had roughly divided the treasures when Eldrin spoke up: "Fellow Daoists, now that we've distributed the spoils, it is time we returned to our mountains to digest these gains."

"I hope that after this period of seclusion, all of you will achieve breakthroughs and greatly enhance your strength." Seeing this, the Taixuan Shenling immediately smiled and said, "Then I shall take your auspicious words as a blessing, Fellow Daoist."

The Earthspring Ancestor also nodded slightly, rising to cup his hands in salute. "I intend to return to secluded cultivation for 3 1000 years. Should another great calamity arise hereafter, I trust we shall still guard each other's backs amidst the storm."

"So it is ordained."

Eldrin nodded and bid farewell to the others with a smile.

After the 2 Earth Immortals and the various Half-Step Earth Immortals departed, the army of the Returning Abyss Sea also began withdrawing toward the Returning Abyss Sea.
