Chapter 977 9 Layers of Yuanshen(term)

2 supreme laws could converge into the Law of Yin-Yang Wuji.

"Yet to do so would require abandoning the other 3 paths of law."

Eldrin murmured to himself, his brow furrowing deeply.

Be it the Profound Abyssal True Water or the Primordial Yang Celestial Flame, both are supreme laws of the cosmos. Once Yin and Yang merge in perfect harmony, 1 shall reign supreme over all realms!

This is the Law of the Infinite that directly points to the path of Primordial Chaos.

What is the Infinite? The so-called Infinite is the state of formlessness before the division of Heaven and Earth, the origin of all things, the beginning of creation. It is neither being nor non-being, neither emptiness nor form. It transcends the duality of Yin and Yang and the transformations of the 5 Elements, existing beyond the confines of time and space. Within the Infinite, there is no distinction between past and future, no separation of inner and outer. It is the ultimate source from which the Great Dao arises, the fundamental essence that gives birth to the myriad phenomena. To comprehend the Infinite is to grasp the very root of the cosmos. The ancient texts state: "The Dao begets 1, 1 begets 2, 2 begets 3, 3 begets all things." This 1 emerges from the Infinite, representing the primordial unity before differentiation. Therefore, the Infinite is both the mother of the Dao and the ancestor of all existence. In the context of cultivation, attaining the Infinite signifies reaching the pinnacle of spiritual enlightenment, where 1 merges with the primordial chaos and transcends the cycle of birth and death. It is the ultimate realm that all cultivators aspire to achieve through their arduous journey.

Even the vast heavens and earth have their boundaries, for there exists a limit.

The vast cosmos too has its limits, known as the Ultimate.

What is deemed as the Infinite exists not within the realms of heaven and earth, nor amidst the cycles of reincarnation.

The Great Dao is boundless, ethereal and endless—it may be called the Infinite.

Boundless chaos, without horizon or shore, is the Ultimate Non-Polarity.

The Law of Yin-Yang Wuji, bearing the very name "Limitless," demonstrated how extraordinarily formidable it was.

Yet precisely because it was overwhelmingly powerful, it became all the more domineering, possessing an intensely exclusive nature.

Eldrin's 3 Great Daos—the Primordial Chaos Gold, the Soil of All Things, and the Seed of Life—each held the potential to peer directly into the realm of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

And even further, to catch a glimpse of the realm of the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal was not beyond reach, yet it was naturally deemed impermissible by the Law of Yin-Yang Wuji.

Although these 3 paths could not compare to the supreme Yin-Yang Wuji Law that reigned supreme over the world, they still held the potential to lead 1 directly to the realm of Dao Ancestor and Immortal Sage. Their profound mysteries made them utterly irresistible to abandon.

“Forsaking the sharpness and resilience of Primordial Chaos Gold, the profound endurance of All-Spirits Earth, the vibrant vitality of the Law of Life—to solely cultivate the peerless and domineering Law of Yin-Yang Primordial Chaos…”

Eldrin murmured to himself, but ultimately shook his head.

A supreme path lay right before him, yet he found it difficult to choose this road.

For once a choice was made, his Primordial Chaos Foundation would be rendered futile. Though his combat prowess might see a tremendous boost, this path was by no means flawless.

The Path of Yin and Yang Extremes was overwhelmingly domineering. Though 1 who walked this path might reign supreme in combat, it lacked the sharpness and tenacity of Primordial Chaos Gold, the profound solidity of All Things Earth, and the vibrant vitality of the Law of Life.

Such a supremely dominant Great Dao, though peerless in its might, ultimately cannot compare to the Primordial Chaos Dao that encompasses all things—the Primordial Chaos Unity Law of Primordial Chaos Non-Duality.

"Buzz…"

Eldrin suppressed the urge to merge the 2 laws. The radiance of sun and moon gradually faded from his pupils as the Yin-Yang Wuji Circle behind him slowly dissipated—he had relinquished the Law of Yin-Yang Wuji.

A Primordial Chaos path was abandoned, and though Eldrin felt a tinge of regret in his heart, he harbored no lingering attachments.

Eldrin knew full well in his heart that although this path was even more arduous, the difficulty of comprehending the 3 laws would grow exponentially greater.

However, if I were to fully comprehend all 5 laws, the Primordial Chaos Law of Non-Polarity ultimately cultivated would surpass even the Yin-Yang Law of Non-Polarity that reigns supreme in this realm.

"By harmonizing Yin and Yang, 1 may derive the Law of Yin-Yang Infinity, and reign supreme over all under heaven."

"If I merge the 5 Origins into 1 and attain the Chaos Primordial Law, could I proclaim myself the Ancestor of 10 1000 Daos?"

Eldrin murmured softly, then shook his head with a self-deprecating laugh. "No matter what lies ahead, taking each step firmly is what truly matters."

With those words, the 2 laws behind him converged into his body like a great whale drawing in water, and an increasingly formidable aura erupted from within him.

Having successfully cultivated the power of the Profound Abyss True Water law, he effortlessly broke through the bottleneck, advancing his cultivation to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm.

Having cultivated to this realm, Eldrin's mastery of spiritual power had reached its limit. All that remained was to accumulate his power to perfection, after which there would be no further progress possible.

To advance further, 1 must survive the Immortal Ascension Lightning Tribulation and transform their spiritual power into the legendary Immortal Essence.

Yet, neither Eldrin's physical body nor his mastery of laws had reached their limits. Moreover, he had yet to attain the Primordial Chaos Undying Dao Fruit, making him naturally unwilling to face the heavenly tribulation at this stage.

With this thought, Eldrin (Person Name) concluded his cultivation and emerged from the seclusion chamber.

Chapter 1 Stepping out of the seclusion chamber, Eldrin found Seraphina Qu had been waiting for quite some time. Seeing him emerge, she smiled warmly and asked, "Husband, what gains have you reaped from this session?"

Eldrin smiled faintly and gave a slight nod. "It went fairly smoothly."

"So it is true!"

A gleam of delight crossed Seraphina Qu’s face as she couldn’t help but grasp the other’s hand. “With my husband having mastered the Profound Abyssal True Water Law on this journey, it seems the day of his ascension to immortality is not far off.”

"Why not press on and continue secluded cultivation to comprehend the power of laws?"

Eldrin, however, shook his head and said with a smile, "Comprehending the laws of heaven and earth is no simple feat. Yet for me, the accumulation of foundational insight has long been sufficient. What remains is but a fleeting moment of enlightenment—that elusive spark needed to grasp the essence of the Dao."

"Aside from divine artifacts like the Abyssal God-Iron and the Violet Flame Immortal Gold, which inherently contain laws, 1 can only rely on a fleeting spark of spiritual intuition. This is not something that can be attained through secluded cultivation alone."

Eldrin spoke in a measured tone, then smiled as he began, "With the next Cataclysm from the Demonic Abyss 3 100 years away, I intend to use this time to purge the malevolent fiends plaguing the Violet Realm."

"Let’s also check whether the extraterrestrial demons have any hidden contingencies left within the Violet Realm."

"So that's how it is."

Seraphina Qu nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed, many demonic patriarchs within the Violet Realm have committed countless atrocities. Now that you have attained the Dao, husband, it is time for you to uphold justice for all living beings."

"So it shall be!"

Eldrin smiled faintly but said nothing more.

He emerged from the seclusion chamber and summoned several younger generation Nascent Souls of the clan: Chen Ethan (Person Name), Lu Wenyuan, and Gu Lanshan.

When the group had assembled, he handed them a roster.

The men took the scroll and examined it, finding 7 or 8 names of Eerie Fiends recorded upon the roster.

"Uncle, what is this..."

Chen Ethan (Person Name) scanned the name list and couldn't help asking with slight hesitation.

The demonic spirits recorded in this roster were all at the Primordial Spirit, Early Stage (Cultivation Realm), entities that had plagued the Violet Realm for years yet refrained from intervening during multiple Cataclysm of the Demonic Abyss.

This caused a slight stir in their hearts, giving them a rough idea of Eldrin's intentions.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Eldrin nodded and said, "There are many demons and monsters within the Violet Realm, most of whom have plagued the world for years. In my earlier days, I was too devoted to cultivation to spare the time to eradicate them."

"Now that my Dao has taken form, it is time to purge the scourge plaguing the Violet Realm."

At this point, Eldrin glanced at the name list again and said, "These individuals possess mere Primordial Spirit, Early Stage cultivation. I entrust their elimination to you all. Do not disappoint me."

Everyone’s expressions turned solemn at these words. Ethan Chen nodded and said, “These fiends have plagued the world for many years. Even if you hadn’t urged us, Uncle, we were already prepared to take action against them.”

"Since our clan uncle has personally given the word, we must not delay. Let us eliminate them with all haste."

"Very well."

Eldrin gave a slight nod. Over the years, Ethan and the others had grown increasingly profound in their cultivation. Not long ago, Ethan had even broken through to the fourth layer of the Nascent Soul.

With them taking action personally, it was more than enough to overcome these demons.

However, the Nascent Soul demonic cultivator possessed an exceptionally strong ability to preserve his life, capable of tearing through the void to escape at critical moments. It would likely be quite difficult to slay him.

At this thought, Eldrin produced the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void and declared, "Take this treasure with you on your journey. Ensure none of them escape with their lives."
