Chapter 1388 : Immortal Realm Rules

A faint smile graced Liuli Shenjun’s lips as he shook his head. “If 1 with the bearing of a Celestial Immortal were to be snuffed out by others, do you truly believe the 2 cave heavens of Xiqi and Shenyuan would have allowed the master of the Western Abyss Dragon Palace to live to this day?”

"So it is."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Observing this, Eldrin remarked, "Celestial Immortals are lofty figures who typically cannot bring themselves to lose face by acting against juniors."

"Even if we disregard face and take action against a junior, we cannot simply do as we please."

"Otherwise, if he could slay the celestial seeds of the Human and Divine races, then the Celestial Immortals of these races might likewise cast aside decorum to eradicate the rising talents of the demon tribes without mercy."

"If this continues, with Heavenly Immortals slaying Earthly Immortals, Great Luo experts butchering Heavenly Immortals, and Patriarchs exterminating all their rivals' disciples—wouldn't that throw everything into chaos?"

"Not to mention we immortals live eternal lives. Over hundreds of thousands of years, our relationships have become intricately intertwined. Which among those with the potential to become Celestial Immortals doesn’t have a powerful backer behind them?"

"If he killed 1 or 2, that might be tolerable. But if he dared to act without restraint, not only would the Celestial Court and the 2 blessed realms refuse to tolerate him, even the Demon Empire would intervene to stop him."

"Unless the Celestial Court, Immortal Court, and Divine Court wage all-out war, the rulers of the immortal realms would never allow them to run rampant."

The Glazed Goddess spoke unhurriedly, then continued, "Thus, among us immortals, contests are primarily held between those of the same cultivation realm." "This stands as 1 of the most fundamental rules within the immortal domain."

"Then I can rest easy."

Eldrin let out a sigh of relief, feeling the immense pressure in his heart suddenly dissipate.

The Glazed Divine Lord observed the scene, then cast another thoughtful glance at Eldrin before remarking, "Yet you must not let your guard down." "Though Heavenly Immortal powerhouses would stoop to intervene directly, prodigies like you who tread forbidden realms have always faced perilously high odds of an untimely demise."

"These cave heavens may not personally intervene against you, but should you attempt to breakthrough to the Celestial Immortal realm, they will undoubtedly come to obstruct your Dao."

"Even if you manage to breakthrough during the Great Tribulation, they will most likely scheme against you in the shadows." "I understand."

Eldrin nodded slightly, a faint tension settling in his heart.

With the precedents of the Master of the Western Abyss Dragon Palace and Lord Ye Xu serving as cautionary tales, he grew more guarded against the 2 cave heavens—Xiqi and Shenyuan.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Eldrin recalled Seraphina Qu and couldn't help but ask, "I wonder how my wife is faring now?" "Quite well."

The Glazed Goddess spoke with serene grace, then said with a gentle smile, "After the great tribulation concluded, she broke through to the Earth Immortal realm. By my reckoning, it’s about time she emerged from seclusion."

Just then, a woman cloaked in Seraphina Qu (Person Name) strode forward, her heart leaping with joy upon seeing Eldrin (Person Name).

The newcomer was none other than Seraphina Qu. After exchanging a glance, Seraphina Qu bowed gracefully to the Glazed Divine Lord and said, "I pay my respects to the Divine Lord."

Crystalline Divinity Sovereign nodded slightly before speaking. "Since your cultivation base has stabilized, I can rest assured."

Eldrin then realized that Seraphina Qu had already stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm, and judging by her aura, she must have opened all 9 layers of her inner cosmos.

At this thought, a surge of joy arose in Eldrin’s heart.

Observing the scene, the Glazed Divinity said, "Since you 2 have been reunited after long separation, why not stay for a while here in the Glazed Blessed Realm?" "After this, whether Seraphina Qu (Person Name) returns to your Abyssal Return Blessed Realm or remains here in the Glazed Blessed Realm, the choice is yours to make." "Our gratitude, Divinity."

Eldrin offered a slight bow of acknowledgment. He understood that the primary reason the Glazed Divine Sovereign was willing to let Seraphina Qu depart with him was that, having broken through to the Earth Immortal realm, she now possessed a measure of self-preservation ability.

Second, it was because Eldrin possessed extraordinary strength, truly qualifying him to protect Seraphina Qu. In the following days, Eldrin stayed with Seraphina Qu at the Glazed Paradise for several days.

He recalled the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit on his person and could not help but asking Seraphina Qu, "Seraphina Qu, do you believe Glazed Divine Lord is someone absolutely trustworthy?"

Without hesitation, Seraphina Qu (Person Name) replied immediately, "The Divine Monarch has shown me the grace of rebirth, and we share the same lineage. If even she cannot be trusted, then there are likely few trustworthy souls left in this world."

"I understand."

Eldrin nodded and proceeded to inform Seraphina Qu about the matter of the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit. After listening, Seraphina Qu said delightedly, "With your innate aptitude and the aid of the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit, the likelihood of establishing a Taiyi Foundation is exceedingly high."

"Use this to trade with her, and she will surely not treat you unfairly."

With Seraphina Qu's (Person Name) assurance, Eldrin (Person Name) let go of the last trace of worry in his heart.

That very day, Seraphina Qu brought him to seek out the Glazed Divine Sovereign, informing her of the news regarding the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit. "You would truly give this item to me?"

Glazed Divinity Sovereign gazed at the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit before her, a subtle shimmer swirling in her captivating eyes.

Eldrin nodded and stated plainly, "Given the Divine Lord's grace in granting Seraphina Qu a new lease on life, it is only fitting that we offer this 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit in return."

With a faint smile, Liuli Shenjun (Deity) replied, "Seraphina Qu (Person Name) is not only your wife, but also the hope of our Celestial Shell Clan. We cannot measure it in such terms."

As she spoke, the Glazed Divine Sovereign looked at Eldrin (Person Name) and said, "Such a supreme-grade Heaven-Opening Immortal Elixir is virtually impossible to value." "Even with the wealth of my Glazed Paradise, we possess only 1 treasure that could rival it."

At this point, the Glazed Divine Monarch paused briefly in contemplation before saying, "Very well. Once I have cultivated the Taiyi True Body to completion, I shall be able to nurture a 7-Colored Divine Pearl of world-creating supremacy."

"This pearl possesses extraordinary properties—it can be used to refine world-creating supreme treasures or external elixirs. If consumed as medicine, each pearl increases 1's chances of attaining the Taiyi True Body by 10 percent, making its value nearly equivalent to this elixir."

"At that time, I shall bestow this artifact upon you. What say you?" Hearing this, Eldrin felt a faint stirring in his heart.

The 7-Colored Divine Pearl possessed extraordinary efficacy and could even be refined into external elixirs. Strictly speaking, its applications were more versatile than those of the 9 Tribulations Thunder Fruit, rendering it even more scarce.

Therefore, Eldrin did not hesitate and immediately spoke, "As the Divine Sovereign commands."

At this point, Eldrin paused briefly in contemplation before speaking, "I wish to establish a long-term trade arrangement with the Glazed Paradise."

"Oh?"

A flicker of light passed through Divine Lord Liuli’s eyes as she gazed at Eldrin (Person Name) with a faint smile. “I heard from Sister Riji and the others that your Primordial Chaos Wuji Rule power enables you to refine external elixirs capable of storing several times your own magical energy.”

"The purpose of your visit for this transaction must also be for this External Elixir."

"Indeed." Eldrin nodded, then spoke, "The Ocean God Pearl from the Glazed Paradise is precisely the finest material for refining an external elixir."

"Mm." The Glazed Godking gave a slight nod, then said thoughtfully, "Currently, over half of the Ocean God Pearls within our blessed realm have been traded to the Abyssal Divine Grotto-Heaven."

"However, I can promise you that from now on, 50 percent of all Sea God Pearls of Grade 7 or higher will be delivered to you."

At this point, Glazed Spirit Lord pondered briefly before continuing, "However, regarding the refined external elixirs, I hope you will prioritize supplying them to my Glazed Abode."

"Of course, I shall offer you a fair price as well."
