Chapter 1325 : Origin of Fate
The youth murmured in his heart, yet gathered all his immortal essence, ready to unleash a final desperate strike—to draw that last sword.
And at that very moment, a resplendent immortal radiance blossomed across the heavens, revealing a snow-robed figure standing against the firmament.
The newcomer swept his long sleeve fiercely upon setting foot here, actually sending the Black Fiend Demon Venerable's supreme-grade immortal treasure flying away.
"Who might you be?"
The guardian immortal treasure was sent flying. A flicker of alarm crossed Dark Fiend Sovereign’s face, and without a second thought for the youth, he fixed his gaze with utmost gravity upon Eldrin.
The young man also looked over. The moment he laid eyes on Eldrin, his expression froze in stunned disbelief before he immediately dropped to his knees in elation. With a choked voice, he exclaimed,
"Disciple Yuansheng pays respects to the Master!" "Great Luo Foundation Establishment—you are passable."
Eldrin glanced at the youth, nodded in satisfaction, and with a flick of his sleeve, lifted the boy to his feet before turning his gaze toward the Black Fiend Demon Venerate.
Seeing Eldrin’s gaze turn toward him, the Black Fiend Demon Lord inwardly cursed his misfortune and immediately retreated, fleeing into the distance.
"Since you're bullying the junior, why be in such a hurry to leave?"
Eldrin spoke with an air of detachment. With a flick of his sleeve, the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand descended, suppressing and annihilating the Black Fiend Demon Venerable in the void in a single move.
Seeing that the Black Fiend Demon Lord couldn't even withstand a single move in Eldrin's hands, the remaining demon immortals all revealed expressions of terror.
3 Ninth-Level Ascension Demon Immortals immediately soared into the air, frantically fleeing toward the distant void.
Yet how would Eldrin ever let them escape? With a mere flick of his sleeve, the Sky-Severing Twin Swords transformed into streaks of luminous blade-light, sweeping forth with invincible, boundless sword energy. In that fleeting moment, immortals fell like rain.
In just a few clashes, dozens of demon immortals—including 3 at the Ninth Level of Ascension—were instantly eradicated.
Only then did the assembled immortals of the human race snap to their senses, prostrating themselves in unison as they declared, "We owe you a life debt for your divine intervention, Elder."
Eldrin gave a faint nod and with a flick of his sleeve, raised everyone to their feet.
He tossed all 3 Dao Origins of the Ninth Ascension Immortal Realm to Yuansheng, then nodded with satisfaction. "In just a few tens of thousands of years, not only have you forged a Great Perfection Foundation, but you've also stepped into the Seventh Ascension Immortal Realm."
"With such a solid foundation, you are no weaker than your 2 senior brothers."
At this point, Eldrin spoke: "Would you be willing to return with your master?"
Yuan Sheng’s face lit up with ecstasy, and he immediately dropped to his knees, declaring, "It is this disciple’s greatest honor to serve by the Master’s side."
"Hmm."
Eldrin nodded slightly before speaking again, "Remain here and await my return. I shall come for you in 3 days."
As the words faded, Eldrin did not linger. He immediately headed deeper into the Crimson Sun Sea, soon halting before a submerged volcano.
"This is the place."
Gazing at the volcano, Eldrin gave a slight nod.
In the past, when the Crimson Sun Blessed Land shattered, the Pure Yang Fire Veins scattered throughout the Crimson Sun Sea, forming thousands of large and small fire veins.
这些火脉之中,小的仅仅只是五阶六阶水平,有数十条则在仙阶领域,其中更有三条极品火脉。
Before him lay 1 of the 3 supreme-grade fire veins.
Only 70 1000 years had passed since Eldrin (Person Name) attained immortality, yet his Primordial Indestructible Body had already refined 2 supreme-grade earth veins: Metallic Essence and Arboreal Pulse.
Of the remaining 3 earth veins, he had obtained the supreme Wu Earth Vein from the hands of Earthspring Elder, and not long ago acquired the supreme water vein of the Taicang Blackfish from the Taicang Sea Region.
With just this 1 last supreme-grade fire vein remaining, Eldrin would have gathered all 5 earth veins.
With the 5 supreme-grade earth veins gathered, the 5 elemental essences required for my Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body will be fully replenished.
"Once I refine these 3 earth veins, my Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body will undergo a qualitative transformation, becoming the true Primordial Genesis Form."
Eldrin summoned the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand to seize the earth vein, then stored it away using the Yin-Yang Void Mirror.
After completing this step, Eldrin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had a premonition that once the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body had refined 5 supreme-grade earth veins, his physical form would reach an unprecedented level of strength.
Perhaps by then, relying solely on physical strength alone, Eldrin (Person Name) would be able to contend with mid-stage Earth Immortals, and his combat prowess might even reach the realm of 9 Tribulation Immortals.
Once the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body achieves the Primal Chaos True Form, the physical body's resilience will grow even more formidable, the meridians will expand to vaster horizons, and the capacity to contain spiritual power will be further enhanced.
At that time, Eldrin's overall combat prowess would undoubtedly undergo a qualitative leap.
"By then, will I be able to advance further, stepping into the legendary forbidden realm and possess a bearing comparable to the Celestial Emperor of the Divine Court?"
Eldrin murmured inwardly, a trace of hesitation flickering across his expression.
Soon, a resolute gleam flashed in his eyes. As for whether he could truly step into that realm, even Eldrin himself did not know.
But he was supremely confident. Relying solely on the Primordial Chaos Wuji Law, his combat prowess should rank among the pinnacle of 9 Tribulation Immortals.
If he could cultivate the Primordial Chaos True Body, his combat power would undoubtedly advance to the next level. Whether he could ultimately step into that realm or not, it would be enough if it enhanced his battle prowess and increased his chances of surviving the Great Heavenly Tribulation.
With this thought in mind, Eldrin wasted no more time.
After fully harvesting the supreme-grade fire vein, he returned to the Human Race's immortal isle and departed for the Sea of Returning Ruins with Yuansheng.
After returning to the Guixu Sea, Eldrin summoned his 3 disciples: Ye Qingfeng, the first disciple; Lu Wenyuan, the second disciple; and Su Qiongfang, the nominal disciple. He then introduced them to the others.
"This child is named Yuansheng, born to inherit my Dao Fruit and ascend to immortality."
From this day forth, he shall be your Fourth Junior Brother, and my fourth personal disciple.
Eldrin spoke with measured grace, recounting the karmic ties of the ancient Cangling Star. Then, turning to Yuansheng, he said, "These are your senior brothers: Ye Qingfeng, your first senior brother, and Lu Wenyuan, your second senior brother."
"And there's Little 7..."
Eldrin’s words paused briefly as he gazed at Su Qiongfang. “Little 7 is named Su Qiongfang. She is 1 of the 7 nominal disciples I took in during my early years—you may consider her your senior sister.”
"Greetings, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, and Sister Su."
Yuan Sheng bowed respectfully, his gaze sweeping over the trio before revealing a look of profound astonishment.
He had always believed himself to be a heaven-sent prodigy, capable of achieving the legendary state of the Great Luo—a feat considered rare across countless millennia. Yet never had he imagined that both his senior brothers would prove no less extraordinary than him.
Among the 3 senior brothers and sisters before him, Senior Sister Su, the master's nominal disciple, possessed only ordinary foundations. Yet Lu Wenyuan and Ye Qingfeng, both true disciples, were blessed with peerless talents.
Lu Wenyuan possessed the 4 Symbols Dao Body (Spiritual Root), simultaneously cultivating the power of 4 elemental laws. His combat prowess seemed to surpass his own by a noticeable margin.
The Eldest Senior Brother seemed to embody the power of pure yang, as if he had grasped the Dao of Limitless Pure Yang. Though his cultivation was only at the sixth level of Ascendant Immortal Realm, the threat he emanated far surpassed what 1 would expect.
"The combat prowess of these 2 senior brothers likely surpasses the Ninth Level of Ascension, and their foundational cultivation seems even more solid than my own."
Yuan Sheng murmured inwardly, his heart filled with awe.
