Chapter 911. Relic of 10 1000 Tribulations Mountain

Eldrin shook his head and spoke with a light laugh, "Having just broken through, it would be best for you to first refine your spiritual treasures and consolidate your cultivation."

A few days later, Eldrin brought Ethan Chen along, and the 2 set off toward the Eastern Sea cultivation realm.

They tore through the void as they traveled, soon arriving at a desolate sea blanketed by a thunderous ocean.

"This is..."

Gazing at the desolate stretch of ocean before him, Chen Ethan couldn't help but take a deep breath, his voice tinged with hesitation as he spoke.

Eldrin nodded, his expression serene as he gazed at the sea engulfed by the thunderstorm before him. "Indeed, this is the Thunder Tribulation Sea."

The Sea of Heavenly Tribulation, as its name implied, was a vast expanse of ocean teeming with endless bolts of lightning. It earned its name from the perpetual and boundless thunderstorms that shrouded its waters year-round. Moreover, due to the terrifying and immeasurable power of these tempests, it also came to be known as the Sea of Calamitous Thunder.

This Thunder Tribulation Sea was 1 of the most terrifying forbidden lands in the Violet Realm, possessing an incomparably ancient origin.

It is said that the core 10 1000 Calamities Thunder Mountain was once the sacred ground of the Thunderbolt Temple, a peak power in the Violet Realm.

As early as 80,000 years ago, the Thunder Palace stood alongside the Li Fire Palace, the Stellar Palace, and the Tai Xuan Palace as the 4 great divine halls of the Violet Realm.

Among the 4 great divine halls, the 'Hall of Thunders' stood as the foremost. During its glorious era tens of thousands of years ago, this lineage boasted over a 100 Nascent Soul Dao Lords, and even 3 half-immortal Patriarchs.

Alas, the Great Cataclysm of the Violet Realm erupted later. The Hall of Thundering Profundity, situated deep within the Eastern Sea, bore the brunt of the impact and became the first line of defense against the Outer Realm Demonic Gods.

During the first Cataclysmic Abyss calamity, the Thunderclap Temple exhausted its accumulated foundations. Dozens of Nascent Soul Dao Lords, including 3 Demigod Ancestors (Cultivation Realm), all perished. Even the sole Near-Immortal-grade Thunder Ancestral Vein of the Violet Realm was shattered.

From that day forth, the 'Thunderclap Palace,' 1 of the 3 great halls of the Violet Realm, was erased from existence. It could be said that this was an incomparably brutal and devastating battle.

After the destruction of the Thunder Primordial Vein, boundless thunder power dispersed and converged over the Eastern Sea, forming a magnificent thunderstorm domain—the very Sea of Thunder Tribulation now before us.

Now, after tens of thousands of years, the heavenly tribulations within the Sea of Thunder Tribulation still strike ceaselessly day and night, as if carrying the domineering resentment of the heroic spirits of the Hall of Thunder—an eternal turmoil that can never be fully quelled.

"Sea of Heavenly Tribulation, Hall of Thunders... Alas..."

Eldrin (Person Name) let out a soft sigh before speaking, "My divinations reveal a thread of vitality brewing within the depths of this Annihilation Lightning Tribulation. It seems some unforeseen change has occurred within."

"Here, heavenly tribulation and vital energy coexist, making it the supreme sacred ground for tempering my physical form. Perhaps it can help me cultivate my body to an even higher realm."

Chen Ethan nodded, then couldn't resist asking, "Then why has Uncle brought me here?"

"My calculations indicate that the inner tribulation lightning's power of annihilation within this place may assist you in cultivating Annihilation Magic Power."

Eldrin spoke calmly, then swept up Chen Ethan and flew straight toward the heart of the Lightning Tribulation Sea.

"Boom!"

Upon entering the Sea of Heavenly Tribulation, a torrent of lightning bolts swept over from all directions.

Eldrin, however, showed no trace of fear. For the sake of Chen Ethan, he summoned his Primordial Chaos True Aura to withstand the heavenly tribulation, advancing relentlessly through the storm of lightning.

No 1 knew how long they had flown. After traversing a deafening ocean of thunder, the 2 arrived in a desolate and shattered expanse of sea.

This was a dilapidated island, strewn with ruins and crumbling walls. A palace once constructed from piles of jade now lay in utter disrepair.

Only shattered bricks and tiles cast from jade lay scattered across the ground, as if whispering tales of past glory.

The Ruins of the Thunderclap Hall.

Eldrin murmured under his breath, unable to suppress a sigh. "Even such a glorious immortal lineage like this... could it truly face decline 1 day?"

"Elder Uncle, watch out..."

At that very moment, Chen Ethan couldn't help but exclaim aloud.

Then, with a deafening roar, a blaze of scorching lightning erupted as a shattered sword wreathed in thunderbolts soared through the air and slashed toward him.

The force of this sword strike was utterly terrifying. Streak after streak of lightning sword qi erupted from its edge, tearing countless fissures in the void.

"Hmph—"

Facing such a peerlessly lethal sword strike, Eldrin slightly furrowed his brow. With a casual flick of his finger, a brilliant arc of lightning erupted, instantly sending the shattered sword flying backward.

Yet in that very instant, another arc of lightning soared through the skies, sweeping across with cataclysmic thunder.

Eldrin raised the Earthen Sovereign Bell to block the strike, then lifted his gaze to see a figure clad in violet thunder-patterned robes soaring through the air toward him.

The newcomer was clad in a violet robe embroidered with thunder patterns, a gilded purple crown adorning his head, while arcs of lightning coiled incessantly around his form.

His eyes were filled with blazing white lightning, making him appear as majestic as a supreme Thunder Sovereign.

Slay them—

That figure was overwhelmingly domineering. With a single move, torrents of lightning spilled forth, and an endless surge of heavenly tribulation power swept through, as if a Ninth Heaven Thunder Deity had descended to enact divine punishment.

"Tribulation Lightning Gives Birth to Life?"

Eldrin murmured, his pupils contracting slightly before quickly regaining their composure.

The newcomer possessed immense power, at least comparable to a supreme being at the 9th-layer Soul Formation stage. Yet, for someone of Eldrin's (Person Name) level, even a Demi-Immortal could do nothing against him, let alone a mere Thunder Tribulation creature.

Recognizing the newcomer, Eldrin wasted no more time. With a surge of overwhelming primordial energy, he summoned a colossal hand that blotted out the heavens and enveloped the earth.

That tribulation-born creature, its consciousness muddled and chaotic, seemed to have been born with overwhelming battle intent. Devoid of any trace of fear, it actually sought to throw itself into a fight to the death.

Yet Eldrin's Chaos Primordial Giant Hand blotted out everything, still seizing him within its colossal palm, allowing no escape despite his 100 struggles.

"This is..."

Eldrin was about to annihilate the living being born of the lightning tribulation when he faintly sensed something amiss.

This living thunder tribulation was formed from the convergence of overwhelming resentment, seemingly born from the fusion of soul fragments of multiple immensely powerful beings, refined through the baptism of heavenly lightning.

Within it lay an extremely familiar aura of human soul energy, as if forged from the unwilling obsessions of the human ancestors of old.

With this thought, Eldrin abandoned the intention to execute him outright, instead summoning overwhelming magical power to firmly suppress the captive within his grasp.

Seizing the Thunder Tribulation creature, Eldrin (Person Name) took a deep breath and said, "This is an embodiment of the heroic spirits of our human predecessors. Destroying it outright would be far too cruel."

"Stand guard for me. I shall attempt its deliverance."

I'll revise it shortly. This tribulation-born creature was formed from the convergence of overwhelming resentment, seemingly fused from the soul fragments of multiple immensely powerful beings, then tempered through heavenly tribulation before giving birth to this living entity.

Within it lay an aura of human soul that felt intensely familiar, as if forged from the unresolved obsessions of humanity's ancient ancestors.

With this thought, Eldrin abandoned the intention to execute him outright, instead summoning overwhelming magical power to firmly suppress the captive within his grasp.

Seizing the Thunder Tribulation creature, Eldrin took a deep breath and said, "Please."
