Chapter 1377 : Silence Transcends Taiyi

"You flatter me. The only reason we were able to open 7 layers of spiritual domains was entirely due to your support."

Yue Ji spoke with a gentle smile, and they all revealed faint smiles. It is worth mentioning that the reason they could sustain the 7-layered heavens and earth was not only due to the External Elixir but also by emulating the method pioneered by Eldrin (Person Name), having erected 5 supreme-grade 4 Extremes Heavenly Pillars within the Earthly Immortal Realm.

While propping up the heavens with 5 Extreme Heaven-Pillars is commendable, it can barely sustain 7 layers of the firmament. Its potential and capacity for growth fall far short of opening a Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root).

But after all, it was the Seventh Heaven Realm. With this foundation, the 2 women's potential had already surpassed that of Sun Princess.

At this thought, Star Maiden also spoke up: "Since we've already broken through, there's no time like the present. Let us advance the Starlight Glazed Realm today."

Xing Ji spoke as she promptly produced an eighth-tier Star Pearl. This pearl was a primordial treasure conceived during her breakthrough to the Earth Immortal realm. Were it not for Eldrin’s assistance in helping her open up the Seventh Heaven, she would never have brought it forth.

Riyue and Yueji, seeing this, immediately retrieved their Grade 8 Solar God Pearl and Stellar Pearl.

The 3 women did not delay. That very day, they joined forces and infused the 3 Creation God Pearls into the Starry Glazed Realm.

As their fusion deepened, the power of the celestial bodies gathered by the Glazed Star Realm grew increasingly potent. When the process finally culminated, it had transformed into a blessed land of cosmic stars.

After the Sun-Moon-Star-Cosmos Blessed Land took shape, the power of the celestial stars it gathered had increased by no less than dozens of times.

Eldrin (Person Name) roughly sensed the area and discovered that the stellar energies from the vast expanse surrounding the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss had all been drawn inward, their reach even extending close to the Sunset Blessed Land.

After its advancement, the Cycle of Heaven and Stars Blessed Land could now sustain the cultivation of 9 Earth Immortals, which was more than sufficient to support the current celestial practitioners in the Abyssal Sea region.

"What incredibly dense stellar energy."

Eldrin murmured, a faint smile gracing his lips.

He gazed at Moon Fairy and Star Fairy, then said with a gentle smile, "Since you 2 have successfully achieved World Creation, might you have any surplus Primordial Qi of Genesis to spare?"

Xing Ji and Yue Ji exchanged a glance, then nodded slightly. "We do have a spare 1," they said. "We'll sell you a talisman."

At the cost of 2 Heaven-Opening Marvels, he purchased a wisp of Heaven-Opening Qi from both Moon Maiden and Star Maiden.

He gave 1 strand of the Primal Chaos Qi to Lyra (Person Name), while keeping the other to advance the Earth Sovereign Bell (Magic Treasure). Eldrin (Person Name) then resumed his cultivation.

Centuries later, Eldrin's Earth Sovereign Bell ascended to become a Heaven-Sundering Treasure, now serving as his fifth life-bound Heaven-Sundering Treasure.

In the days that followed, Eldrin continuously gathered numerous treasures and delved into various divine abilities, leading a relatively tranquil life of secluded cultivation.

Throughout this process, the Great Tribulation continued to advance relentlessly. 1 1000 years later, the Lord of the Celestial Prison Clan broke away from the Western Abyss Dragon Palace, fighting his way out of the encirclement at the cost of severe injuries. He then tore through the void using a Void-Sundering Treasure(Void Opening Artifact) to make his escape.

After this battle, the majority of the Sky Prison Clan's elite forces had fallen in combat, and even the Sky Prison Clan Lord suffered grievous wounds.

Eldrin had long anticipated this outcome.

The Lord of the Celestial Prison Clan and the Western Abyss Dragon Palace had long maintained a facade of cooperation despite their underlying discord, united only by shared interests. Now, witnessing their cause crumbling and the coveted Tribulation Transcendence Flower stolen, he had no intention of remaining in the Western Abyss Dragon Palace to fight a hopeless battle.

However, not long after, another piece of news emerged that caught Eldrin's attention.

Within the Godspire clan, the God of Silent Oblivion refined the Dao Origin of the Abyssal Ancestor. After millennia of secluded cultivation, he finally mastered the Dao Principle of Silent Oblivion Thunder, forging an exceedingly rare Taiyi Foundation.

Once this news spread, it shook the entire Western Abyssal Divine Sea. It was said that after the Annihilating Thunder God made his breakthrough, he immediately joined the siege against the Western Abyssal Dragon Palace. The outcome of the great battle now seemed completely inevitable. "To think... he actually succeeded in breaking through." Eldrin felt a surge of astonishment, tinged with a sigh of resignation. The Annihilating Thunder God’s breakthrough had, in truth, been anticipated. After all, his origins were truly extraordinary—he had mastered 3 types of World-Originating Dao Fruits and opened up 8 layers of heaven and earth. His innate talent was already among the very finest even among Earth Immortals.

With such a solid foundation, his chances of breaking through to the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm were already considerable, let alone after obtaining the Dao Origin of Elder Lingyuan.

Back in the 9-Layered Thunder Abyss, there were 3 Thunder Pools in total: the central 1 held the Great Empyrean Immortal Sword, while the left pool contained the supreme World-Creating Immortal Elixir.

Only the Thunder Pond on the right remained completely empty—the treasure had clearly fallen into the hands of the Annihilating Thunder God.

The value of that treasure was certainly no less than the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit. It was entirely expected that the Lord of Silent Thunder could break through to the Grand Pure Realm after obtaining it.

"The Taiyi Immortal Sword, the 9 Calamities Thunder Fruit, and a treasure that is at least of the highest-grade Heaven-Opening Marvel tier—it seems this Silent Thunder Deity is no ordinary figure, with an origin that is absolutely extraordinary."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, sensing that this Thunder God of Annihilation had either emerged as a product of destiny, was a covert pawn orchestrated by a supreme Celestial Immortal, or perhaps even the reincarnation of a Celestial Immortal powerhouse.

Only 1 of such extraordinary origins could be accompanied by 3 supreme treasures from birth.

From the fact that the God of Silent Thunder had cultivated the Dao Principle of Silent Thunder this time, if Eldrin (Person Name) had not taken the 9 Calamity Thunder Fruit, the God of Silent Thunder would most likely have already attained the Taiyi Immortal Body.

By then, with the simultaneous cultivation of 2 Great Firmament Dao Fruits, the God of Silent Extinction's chances of breaking through to become a Celestial Immortal would likely be no less than 50 percent.

"Such a formidable foe must never learn that the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure) is in my possession."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, his expression growing increasingly grave. Fortunately, he had already concealed the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss within the spatial realm where the Abyssal Pearl resided. With an innate numinous treasure like the Abyssal Pearl shielding it from celestial divination, not even ancient immortal sovereigns could deduce its whereabouts.

With this thought in mind, Eldrin set aside his inner tension. Yet as he recalled the Western Abyss Dragon Palace, he couldn't help but shake his head and murmur.

"With a full 5 Half-Step Celestial Immortals laying siege, the current predicament of the Western Abyss Dragon Palace seems impossible to reverse without some earth-shattering means."

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly, then ceased his deliberations and resumed honing the foundations of his cultivation.

Thus time flew by, and in Eldrin's continuous secluded cultivation, his various techniques gradually reached perfection.

1 1000 years later, he had deduced the Great Deduction of Yin Yang and Stars to the Heaven-Opening Realm. Though it could not compare to the Primordial Chaos lineage, it was still an authentic-level divine ability.

Another 2 1000 years passed, and through continuous high-priced acquisitions, Eldrin finally gathered 5 supreme-grade thunder origins, cultivating his Primordial Chaos Unified True Aura to the world-shattering realm.

After its advancement, the Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder had ascended into the realm of profound mystical arts. Though it could not rival the Primordial Chaos Breath, it had become Eldrin’s ultimate trump card.

In terms of sheer power alone, it could even rival a top-grade Heaven-Creation Treasure.

In Eldrin's secluded cultivation, time slipped away in the blink of an eye. Unbeknownst to him, 3 1000 years had passed, bringing the great tribulation to its final stages.

That day, Eldrin and Lyra sat cross-legged within their cave abode, gazing at the 2 celestial treasures in their hands with contemplative expressions.
