Chapter 1690 : 9 Innate Treasures

Eldrin (Person Name) radiated overwhelming killing intent. After obliterating the Blood Dragon Ancient Temple, he continued his eastward journey.

Within the vast expanse of the Desert Sky Domain, there existed 4 major Buddhist paradises: aside from the Ancient Temple of Literary Heart and the Ancient Temple of Crimson Dragons, there were also the Vajra Ancient Monastery and the Celestial Melody Pure Land.

This time, those who took action against Chen Xianzhu included the Blood Dragon Ancient Temple, as well as 2 other major cave heavens—all of them were part of the sinister scheme, and naturally, none would be spared.

Eldrin journeyed eastward, arriving at the Celestial Melody Pure Land before long.

However, the Sacred Sound Pure Land had already received word. Several majestic figures now stood towering against the heavens: a Vajra Arhat, a female Bodhisattva clad in immortal robes, and a Daoist priest draped in ceremonial garb.

The 3 figures stood poised atop the firmament, their forms radiating boundless divine light that illuminated the heavens. Merely by standing there, they exuded an aura of transcendent grace beyond the mortal realm.

Even so, upon seeing Eldrin, the Celestial Sound Bodhisattva wore a rather grave expression as she spoke, "I have long heard of the esteemed Fellow Daoist of the Returning Abyss. What matter brings you to my Celestial Sound Pure Land today?"

Eldrin did not answer immediately, his gaze shifting past the 3 figures as he inquired, "But are you the Bodhisattva of Celestial Melody, Golden Dawn Arhat, and the elder from the Ancient Tianxuan Sect?"

Hearing this, the 3 of them exchanged a glance.

The Daoist from the Tianxuan Ancient Sect rose to his feet and spoke with serene composure, "It is indeed the 3 of us."

"Then we haven't found the wrong 1."

Eldrin spoke, the Chaos Heaven Halberd in his hand cleaving down with immense force, striking toward the elder of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect.

"Arrogant."

Witnessing Eldrin’s unreasonable strike closing in, the elder of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect repeatedly shifted his expression.

With a mere flick of his sleeve, he summoned forth a string of ancient stellar beads, manifesting the profound mysteries of the celestial heavens to ward off Eldrin’s strike.

Yet the Chaos Heaven Halberd possessed unparalleled might. Bolstered by Eldrin (Person Name)'s wrathful strike, the Primordial Star-Ancient Pearl could not withstand the assault and shattered into fragments on the spot.

"Insolence!"

The elder of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect roared in shock and fury, swiftly gathering his companions as he shouted, "Join forces and subdue him!"

The Bodhisattva of Celestial Melodies, unwilling to bear the burden of karmic retribution, revealed a trace of unconcealable compassion as she spoke, "Patron, I have already discerned the purpose that brings you before us."

"The reason your son has incurred this calamity lies entirely in his excessive bloodshed. He slew the Tribulation-bearing Buddha Child of the Blood Dragon Ancient Temple, thus drawing this fatal retribution upon himself. This matter cannot be blamed upon us."

"Now that the Blood Dragon Ancient Temple has fallen, an eye for an eye will only perpetuate the cycle of vengeance. Should you, Benefactor, be willing to let bygones be bygones, we are prepared to offer compensation."

"Hmph—"

Eldrin sneered coldly. The Chaos Heaven Halberd in his hand bloomed with primordial divine edge, cleaving through the boundless power of Dao principles as he charged straight toward the crowd.

He showed no mercy, his eyes turning cold as he declared, "When you hunted down my son, your faces were nothing like this."

"Only by slaughtering every last 1 of you today can blood debts be repaid in blood!"

With those words, supreme divine might surged forth, cleaving through the air as it descended upon the crowd.

Meanwhile, Lyra (Person Name) and over a dozen Half-Step Celestial Immortals from the Azure Ji Chen Clan had already sealed off the entire void, completely cutting off all escape routes for the trio.

Seeing this, the Golden Dawn Arhat's face radiated boundless cold light.

Yet he did not strike immediately, instead gazing skyward as he declared, "Heaven's Dao bears witness! Today, it is not we who obstruct the Child of Tribulation, but he who provokes conflict of his own accord. The fault lies not with us—even Heaven's Dao should withhold its judgment."

Boom…

Above the firmament, the void thunder blazed and surged.

The Will of Heaven seemed to have witnessed everything, tacitly permitting these few individuals to take action.

Seeing this, Golden Sun Arhat turned to Eldrin with a vicious sneer and declared, "We refrain from acting against the protagonist of the Heavenly Tribulation not out of fear, but to avoid being tainted by the karmic retribution of the Dao Calamity."

"Yet you initiated aggression against us. Now, even the Heavenly Dao offers you no sanctuary. Truly, you seek your own demise."

"To slay the likes of you, why would I need to borrow the power of Heaven's Decree?"

Eldrin spoke with an air of detachment. With a flick of his sleeve, he soared into the air. The overwhelming sword aura in his hand swept across the vast emptiness, directly enveloping the 3 figures.

Meanwhile, Lila, Yan Zi Ji, and Lyra also descended with boundless killing intent, standing together as 3 supreme experts.

The Golden Dawn Arhat had initially believed that a group of half-step Celestial Immortals posed no real threat, yet the moment they crossed blows, he sensed something was amiss.

The strength of the crowd was astonishingly formidable. Lyra alone was enough to suppress the Celestial Melody Bodhisattva, while the Golden Body Arhat found himself besieged by familiar faces, realizing each 1 possessed the power to contend with him in battle.

Especially Chen Qiyuan (Person Name) before his eyes, who was charging forth with a Celestial Halberd (Magic Treasure) in hand. His Indestructible Golden Body possessed the power to withstand 10 1000 calamities without ruin, to the extent that his own Innate Arhat Golden Body was faintly outmatched.

In truth, Eldrin did not think much of these 3 formidable foes either.

Among these individuals, Golden Light Arhat's cultivation was merely at the First Heavenly Immortal Realm, while Celestial Tone Bodhisattva's cultivation had also only reached the Second Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Only the Guardian Elder of the Heavenly Mystic Ancient Sect possessed considerable strength, with a cultivation base at the third level of the Celestial Immortal Realm. Yet even he was no match for Eldrin (Person Name).

Sealed within the Yin-Yang Void Realm, the Golden Sun Arhat was vanquished in the void after barely over a 100 exchanges.

The Bodhisattva of Divine Sound managed to hold out for over a 100 moves, yet ultimately fell beneath the joint assault of the multitude.

Only the Guardian Elder of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect possessed extraordinary strength. With a primordial ancient talisman in hand, he shattered the Yin-Yang Void Mirror and fled into the depths of the endless void.

Before parting, the Guardian Elder of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect issued a stern warning: "Your son has slain Starry Dryness Daoist, the legitimate heir of Tianxuan—who was none other than the youngest son of Starry Mystic Ancient Immortal."

"Even if you hide within the Celestial Realm of Qingcang, once the opportunity of 100 Calamities Rebirth concludes, you shall inevitably meet your end in the Burial Grounds."

Faced with the guardian elder of the Celestial Mystery Sect’s threatening words, Eldrin remained utterly unperturbed, yet the killing intent in his gaze grew ever more profound.

Watching the elder of the Celestial Mystery Sect flee, Lila (Person Name) burned with the desire to pursue and eliminate him, but was stopped by Lyra (Person Name).

She glanced at Eldrin and couldn’t help but ask, “Have you divined any traces of Xianzhu?”

"No."

Eldrin shook his head and sighed, "During the Dao Tribulation, the heavenly mechanisms are in chaos. Even a Great Luo Immortal Lord cannot deduce the workings of fate. I, too, am unable to locate Xianzhu."

"Fortunately, his soul lamp had only dimmed, not completely extinguished, suggesting there might still be a chance to turn things around."

Upon hearing this, Qing Ji’s expression shifted slightly. She took a deep breath and could not help but ask, “Then, should we send someone to find him next?”

"You won't find any. Since he's fleeing for his life, he definitely wouldn't leave behind the slightest trace."

Eldrin spoke, then shook his head and said, "Proceed according to the plan. Have them begin setting up the 5 Elements Heavenly Domain Formation across the 5 heavenly realms."

In this battle, Eldrin once again seized 2 innate treasures: the Celestial Melody Lantern and the Adamantine Alms Bowl.

Excluding purely special auxiliary immortal treasures such as the Enlightenment Cushion and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel, there were also the life-bound artifacts of individuals like Eldrin (Person Name), Lyra (Person Name), and Qing Ji (Person Name).

Within the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization), there were already 9 Innate Treasures (Magic Treasure) that could be used to set up formations.

The remaining 7 treasures were the Primordial Chaos Pearl, the Yin-Yang Union Vessel, the Coiled Dragon Ancient Pearl, the Scale-Reverse Ancient Sword, the Innate Purple Flame Sword, the Xun Wind Ancient Gourd, and the Liù Wind Ancient Gourd.
