Chapter 956 Immortal Sword, Immortal Sword

Boom—

Just as the crowd was marveling, the mighty heavenly tribulation in the firmament finally descended.

Such a rare Pure Yang Heavenly Tribulation had not been seen in the Violet Realm for countless years. Its power could truly shake heaven and earth—so formidable that even a celestial physique like Eldrin (Person Name) revealed an expression of utmost solemnity.

Faced with such overwhelming power of the heavenly tribulation, Eldrin reckoned that even with his immortal physique, he would not emerge unscathed if he attempted to withstand it head-on.

Yet facing such a heavenly tribulation, the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure) showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, it erupted with dazzling sword radiance that shot directly into the overwhelming sea of thunderous calamity.

The Immortal Sword of Slaughter dominated the world with its indomitable spirit and peerless edge that knew only forward momentum. Even when confronting the Pure Yang Divine Thunder Tribulation, it showed not the slightest trace of fear.

Indeed, this tribulation lightning for the Immortal Sword's ascension proceeded without any unexpected turns.

After weathering the 3 Pure Yang Heavenly Tribulations, the violet sword radiance finally descended, vanishing into Eldrin’s glabella.

"Immortal Sword, Immortal Sword!"

Eldrin closed his eyes, sensing the dazzling sword radiance within his dantian, yet found his heart surging with overwhelming emotions.

The immortal sword is the most coveted treasure among countless cultivators, which is why all blades wielded by practitioners across the realm are bestowed the title of "immortal sword." Yet how exceedingly rare it is to find a true immortal sword?

Throughout the entire Purple Realm, if 1 were to trace back 100,000 years in time, only Jiang Huang had ever possessed a single immortal sword.

Eldrin (Person Name) had cultivated arduously for over 4 1000 years, finally elevating his natal immortal sword to the realm of immortal treasure. From this moment forth, everything would be profoundly different.

With the peerless immortal sword in his grasp, his lethal prowess was now truly capable of threatening the Extraplanar Demon. Coupled with his indestructible immortal physique that had endured 10 1000 tribulations, even the Extraplanar Demon would have to think twice before making a move against him.

At this thought, Eldrin naturally felt incomparably exhilarated.

The Palace Master of the nearby Dao Palace and the other quasi-immortals exchanged glances upon witnessing this. They stepped forward in unison, cupping their hands toward Eldrin (Person Name) and said, "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist. Our sincerest felicitations."

"Fellow Daoist, with the successful ascension of your immortal sword, it seems your confidence in weathering the immortal tribulation thunder is now 9 parts out of 10 assured."

"You flatter me, fellow Daoists."

Eldrin shook his head, then cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Today, the Ascending Sword has successfully advanced, and my heart is filled with joy. Since you have come, why not pay a brief visit to my Verdant Chariot Mountain?"

"In that case, we shall graciously accept."

A celestial sword achieving a successful ascension was an occasion of immense joy.

Eldrin did not host a grand banquet, yet he held a feast for several Demigod Ancestors, inviting them to celebrate at Verdant Chariot Mountain.

After the banquet concluded, Eldrin bid farewell to the guests.

Before parting, the master of the Dao Palace deliberately lingered for a few steps. He then glanced at Eldrin and said, "You have already forged your immortal sword. When will you be confident in comprehending the principles of heavenly flame?"

Upon hearing this, Eldrin's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "With the assistance of the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, it shouldn't take long to fully comprehend the Laws of Heavenly Fire."

"Good."

The Master of the Dao Palace nodded, then consoled in a measured tone, "Within the Spirit-Dead Sea deep in the Eastern Ocean cultivation realm lies an immortal treasury left behind by ancient celestials."

"If you comprehend the Laws of Heavenly Fire, journey to the Spiritless Sea. Perhaps there you shall find the location of the immortal's cache."

"Senior, could it be that you know something?"

A glimmer lit up Eldrin's eyes as he couldn't resist asking.

The Sea of Severed Spirit was 1 of the Forbidden Lands of the Violet Realm, a place of profound peculiarities and wonders. Legend spoke of a supreme immortal treasure concealed within—a contingency left behind by an ancient celestial.

Eldrin had ventured into the Spiritless Sea multiple times, hoping to uncover the immortal relics hidden within its depths. Yet the Spiritless Sea spanned hundreds of millions of miles, and searching for its celestial treasures was no different from dredging a needle from the vast ocean.

Eldrin (Person Name) ventured there several times in succession, yet each attempt yielded nothing.

Now, judging by the meaning behind the Palace Master’s words, it seemed he had some understanding of the immortal trove, and so he could not help but inquire immediately.

The Palace Master shook his head, a trace of regret coloring his expression as he said, "I have performed numerous divinations and even consulted predecessors from bygone eras, yet I still cannot pinpoint the location of the immortal vault."

Legend has it that the immortal treasury was left behind tens of thousands of years ago, before Ji Clan’s Void Refining Immortal ascended to the higher realm.

"The law cultivated by the Refining Void Immortal is the 'Divine Fire of Void Refinement'. I believe if you can comprehend the Heavenly Fire law, you might be able to invoke the Refining Void Immortal's power and locate that extraordinary treasure."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing this, Eldrin nodded, a look of comprehension dawning on his face.

As the last immortal before the Abyssal Cataclysm, the Void-Refining Immortal departed just before the Purple Realm was exiled into the void. Yet he left behind no contingency measures—a truly perplexing matter in itself.

Now that it was revealed that the Forbidden Spirit Sea ruins were connected to the Refined Void Immortal, it seemed to make some sense after all.

In ages past, the Void-Refining Immortal was also a figure of extraordinary brilliance. As early as 1 100 1000 years ago, he had mastered the Void-Refining Divine Fire (Law), standing merely 1 heavenly tribulation away from ascension.

After that, the Void Refining Immortal did not rush to ascend, instead remaining in the Violet Realm for a full 20 1000 years.

Over these 20,000 years, the Void-Refining Immortal sought to forge an immortal body and cultivate a certain Dao fruit of ascension, yet always remained 1 final step away from completion.

Until the Cataclysm of the Demonic Abyss arrived, the Void-Refining Immortal hastily weathered the Ascension Lightning Tribulation before transcending mortality and ascending to immortality.

After the Void-Refining Immortal mastered the laws, he remained in the mortal realm for another 20,000 years. Should he have left behind any contingency measures during these 20 millennia to face the heavenly tribulation, they would undoubtedly be astonishing.

This might be 1 of the keys to quelling the Abyssal Cataclysm, leaving Eldrin no choice but to treat it with utmost seriousness.

At that thought, Eldrin cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for informing me, Senior. After comprehending the laws, I shall inevitably journey to the Eastern Sea."

"Very well, I shall not detain you further."

Seeing that he had taken the advice, the Lord of the Dao Palace nodded and vanished into the void with a flick of his sleeve.

Chen Xingyu, clad in black and gold Daoist robes, ascended the mountain step by step, his expression a blend of exhilaration and unease.

As a rising star of the Chen Family in nearly a 1000 years, Chen Xingyu had advanced from Qi Refining all the way to the Nascent Soul Realm, consuming merely 4 100 and some years.

Now, having just passed the age of 1 1000 7 100 and some years, he had already cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage. This progress could be described as advancing with unstoppable force.

A figure like him would be considered a top-tier genius even within the Chen Clan—a sacred land of Dao Lords. Across the vast world, he stood as a True Lord revered by tens of thousands of cultivators.

By all reasoning, his mental state should have long been flawless, having reached a realm of perfect tranquility. Yet today, Chen Xingyu was restless and unsettled.

For the person he was about to meet today was not merely a legend of the Chen Immortal Clan, but a living myth revered throughout the entire Violet Realm.

"You have come!"

At some unknown time, a tranquil voice suddenly came from ahead.

Chen Xingyu looked up and saw a youth in a blue robe standing before him.

After a silent glance, Chen Xingyu felt a tremor in his heart and hastily bowed. "This disciple pays respects to the Patriarch!"

"Hmm!"
