Chapter 1000 : Ascending with Primordial Thunder

The heavens and earth roared, the void trembled.

Eldrin Chen ascended the heavens with measured steps. His pace was not swift, yet with each stride, a supreme Law Power [the fundamental power derived from comprehending a cosmic law] surged forth.

He advanced like a deity or demon treading upon the firmament. Wherever he passed, the Demonic Abyss seethed, the void churned with wave after wave of violent turbulence, and even the vast Demonic Qi [demonic energy, a corrupt and malevolent form of spiritual power] was utterly annihilated.

"BOOM!"

After nine consecutive steps, the five types of Law Power within Eldrin Chen's body merged into one, transforming into the Primordial Chaos Limitless Law [a supreme law that nullifies all other powers, born from primordial chaos]. It manifested a Five-Colored Divine Thunder [a divine thunderbolt imbued with the power of the five elements] that blasted forth.

This was the first time Eldrin Chen had used the Primordial Chaos Limitless Law to propel the Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder [the supreme divine thunder of the five elements and pure yang energy]. In that fleeting moment, the five supreme Law Power empowered the divine thunder, causing the Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder's might to undergo a transcendent metamorphosis.

Within this Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder, strands of Five Elements Law [the cosmic law governing metal, wood, water, fire, and earth] unfurled, each thread possessing the power of World Creation [the act of birthing a new world or reality].

"A Great Vehicle Immortal Rank Divine Ability [a divine ability of the highest tier, rivaling those of true immortals]!"

In that instant, the Calamity Demon God's face contorted with utter horror.

The Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder was originally the foremost offensive Divine Ability [a supernatural power or technique] in the mortal realm. When cultivated to its peak, its power could even rival Immortal Rank Divine Abilities. Visit AUDIO-NOVEL.COM to enjoy the complete series.

Now, Eldrin Chen had integrated his five Laws of the Dao into the Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder. Although this divine thunder had not yet completed its full metamorphosis, its power already surpassed the limits of ordinary Immortal Rank Divine Abilities, nearly brushing against the threshold of a Great Vehicle-grade Immortal Rank Divine Abilities.

An Immortal Realm Divine Ability at the Great Perfection Realm was, generally speaking, something only a powerful Immortal at the Late Stage Ascendant Immortal Realm could fully command.

Eldrin Chen's cultivation was merely at the early stage of Ascendant Immortality. By all logic, he should not have been able to unleash the full might of this Divine Ability. Yet, having now forged his Primordial Chaos Limitless Dao Palace, he drove it forward with his profound and immense foundation. The resulting power was actually no less than a full-force strike from a Late Stage Ascendant Immortal Realm expert.

"Disaster!"

Witnessing the Five-Colored Divine Thunder sweeping towards him, the Calamity Demon God felt his heart lurch.

He hastily activated the Demonic Abyss to shield himself, hoping to rely on the power of the Demonic Abyss to protect his body and seek a sliver of chance for survival.

However, with the Demon Race suffering heavy casualties and the Purple Realm restraining its potency, the power of the Demonic Abyss had already greatly diminished.

When the Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder finally crashed upon it, it caused the Demon Abyss Heavenly Scar to tremble violently, tearing open a terrifying fissure.

"*Clang!*"

In that instant, Eldrin Chen seized the opportunity. He executed Body and Sword Unification, transforming into a streak of sword light that cleaved forward.

Seeing the Immortal Sword [a legendary blade of immense power] soaring through the air to cleave him down, the Calamity Demon God [a powerful entity of chaos and destruction] felt his heart lurch. He desperately sought to withdraw and flee, but alas, it was already far too late.

Verdant Consort and Lyra Jiang had been waiting for this moment. They simultaneously unleashed the Azure Dragon Stirring the Sea Sword [a divine sword capable of summoning tidal forces] and the Five-Colored Divine Radiance [a brilliant, multi-hued light with purifying properties], completely severing any possibility of the Demon God [a powerful demonic entity] making a clean retreat.

In that very instant, the sword-light transformed from the Heavenly Separated Twin Swords [a pair of legendary, fate-severing blades] rang out with a metallic shriek as it swept through, cleaving the Calamity Demon God in two. Following the strike, the Pure Yang Celestial Flame [a sacred, purifying flame of the highest yang essence] and the Profound Nether True Water [an abyssal, soul-chilling water of profound yin essence] surged forth. The terrifying clash of these two opposing Laws of the Dao [fundamental principles of cosmic order and power] annihilated everything in their wake.

"Agh!"

The Calamity Demon God proved worthy of being a Demon God of the Creation Realm [a high level of demonic cultivation]. Even as his physical body was instantly reduced to ashes, he seized a final opportunity to escape.

In that fleeting moment between life and death, his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core and true essence of a cultivator] transformed into a streak of rainbow light, attempting to flee deep into the Demonic Abyss [a chasm of concentrated demonic energy].

Yet, how could the group, having prepared for this very moment, allow him to slip away?

"BOOM!"

In a flash, the toll of an ancient bell resounded.

From the depths of the void, a Golden Grand Bell [a massive, divine bell forged of sacred gold] soared upwards with earth-shaking momentum. It carried the very weight of heaven and earth in its strike. With a single clash, it completely suppressed the Primordial Spirit of the Calamity Demon God.

The Demon God's Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] wailed in agony, suffering another grievous wound.

As the assembled cultivators and their myriad Immortal Treasure [enchanted artifacts of immense power] assaulted him, even the Calamity Demon God found himself hard-pressed, like a single warrior facing a legion.

At this life-or-death juncture, his eyes blazed crimson. He could no longer afford to channel the Demonic Abyss to suppress the Purple Realm. Gathering every shred of power he could muster, he commanded the Demonic Abyss to churn and surge forth.

"If you wish to kill me, then let us perish together!"

With a furious roar, the Calamity Demon God hurled the vast, roiling Demonic Abyss towards the Purple Realm and its defenders, a desperate gambit to inflict catastrophic damage and drag them all down in mutual destruction.

The faces of the cultivators paled with dread. The Calamity Demon God was willing to shatter the Demonic Abyss itself to fuel this final, suicidal strike. Even if they survived the onslaught, they would suffer terrible, crippling wounds. Read the full novel exclusively on https://audio-novel.com.

In that desperate moment, Eldrin Chen's expression turned grave. He prepared to unleash the Primordial Law [a supreme law of creation] to freeze the Demonic Abyss in its tracks, to wrest a sliver of survival for the Beings of the Purple Realm.

*Clang!*

Yet, in that very instant, a clear, resonant sword cry echoed from the depths of the Demonic Abyss.

The void trembled violently. A searing, incandescent sword-light pierced the endless darkness of the Demonic Abyss, cleaving through the abyss with Sword Qi [condensed sword energy] that promised utter annihilation.

The might of this sword strike was utterly transcendent, a brilliance that defied comprehension. Where it passed, the power of a celestial ascendant surged forth. In the moment of Demon God's stunned disbelief, it completely pierced through his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator].

"Xander Jiang, how dare you!"

Calamity Demon God roared, his heart flooded with terror and a boundless tide of despair and regret.

The newcomer was indeed Jiang the Sovereign Emperor, or rather, it was the Peerless Immortal Sword into which the fragmented Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] of Jiang the Sovereign Emperor had merged.

In ages past, after Jiang the Sovereign Emperor achieved his Dao [the fundamental principle or path in Chinese philosophy], he discovered a Nine Heavens Star Heart [a celestial core of condensed stellar essence] deep within the heart of the Purple Realm and forged it into his Lifebound Immortal Sword [an immortal sword bound to its wielder's life force].

Later, Jiang the Sovereign Emperor ventured into the depths of the Demonic Abyss to quell a great calamity. In that battle, his physical body was destroyed. Only half of his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] remained, merging with the Immortal Sword to preserve his life.

Coveting the Immortal Sword, Calamity Demon God was unwilling to let it be destroyed. He sought to refine it using the power of the Demonic Abyss, intending to transform it into a peerless sword of slaughter and demonic might.

Yet Jiang the Sovereign Emperor's Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] still resided within the blade. Refining it was no simple task. Thus, nearly ten thousand years passed in haste, yet he had always found it difficult to completely refine and master this Immortal Sword.

Originally, needing only another Millennium [a period of one thousand years] of effort, Calamity Demon God was confident he could completely extinguish Jiang the Sovereign Emperor. He did not expect time itself would grow impatient.

As he fully activated the Demonic Abyss to suppress it, the force restraining Jiang the Sovereign Emperor slackened ever so slightly. This allowed Jiang the Sovereign Emperor to seize the opportunity and deliver this fatal blow.

"Calamity, for this single strike, I have waited nine Millennium."

At that very moment, the Immortal Sword [a legendary blade wielded by celestial beings] shimmered faintly, and from within its light, an ethereal figure emerged.

This figure's Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] was illusory and fleeting, yet one could vaguely perceive the peerless, transcendent grace of an immortal sage. However, his Divine Soul [the highest essence of one's spirit] was dissolving into motes of light, as if on the verge of complete annihilation.

"Hahaha! A masterful stroke, truly masterful!"

The Calamity Demon God [a powerful entity of chaos and destruction] let out a bitter laugh. The strike from Jiang the Sovereign Emperor had pierced through his Primordial Spirit. The Sword Qi [energy projected from a sword] of that Peerless Immortal Sword [a sword of unmatched celestial quality] annihilated all in its path, utterly severing his final thread of life.

Facing such a hopeless end, the Calamity Demon God suddenly seemed to find a measure of peace. He looked at Jiang the Sovereign Emperor and chuckled ruefully, "To pay the price of your Primordial Spirit's annihilation, to break free from the shackles of the Demonic Abyss [a realm of demonic energy and corruption] just to deliver this one strike... your own path in this life has also reached its end."

"To perish alongside a seed of Heaven Immortal [an immortal who has ascended to the celestial realm] such as you... this old one's existence was not in vain."

With a final, whispered laugh, the Calamity Demon God's Primordial Spirit was completely extinguished within the swirling Sword Qi.

Witnessing the fall of the Calamity Demon God, Eldrin Chen felt a sharp pang of sorrow as he gazed upon the fading, ethereal Primordial Spirit of Jiang the Sovereign Emperor.

So, to unleash that final, decisive blow, Jiang the Sovereign Emperor had already paid the ultimate price of his own demise. It seemed he, too, would now be forced to walk the path of reincarnation.

"At last, you have arrived."

Witnessing the fall of the Demon God, Jiang the Sovereign Emperor gave a slight nod of approval. His gaze then shifted towards Eldrin Chen and the others. Find this and other novels at audio-novel*com.
