Chapter 1034 : The Earth Immortal's Forbidden Formation

"This Daoist is a native of the Setting Sun Sea, and serves as the temple master of the Verdant Pine Temple, known as Xuanjin, the Temple Master."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen cast a glance at the two individuals.

He had by now heard some whispers about the surrounding seas. To his knowledge, the Celestial Demon Sea bordered the Crimson Dragon Sea and was home to a formidable Heavenly Demon [a powerful demonic entity that has transcended its origins] who had weathered six heavenly tribulations, its cultivation reaching the formidable Half-Step Earth Immortal Realm.

The fact that the Empty Enlightenment Temple could establish itself within the Celestial Demon Sea was a clear testament to the considerable strength of this sect.

And indeed, the evidence was before them. Between the two, while Xuanjin, the Temple Master, as the master of a temple, possessed a cultivation base at the seventh layer of the Ascendant Immortal realm, the Zhen Gang Arhat had already attained the eighth layer of the Ascendant Immortal realm.

"It seems the Empty Enlightenment Temple harbors at least one powerful Immortal-Buddha [a being who has attained enlightenment through both immortal cultivation and Buddhist practices] who has weathered several heavenly tribulations," Eldrin Chen mused inwardly.

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Eldrin Chen clasped his hands in a respectful salute towards the two and inquired, "So it is two esteemed masters before me. My apologies for the earlier lack of recognition."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Eldrin Chen got straight to the point: "Might I ask, Fellow Daoist Six Stars, for what purpose have you summoned the two of us?"

Upon hearing this, Six Stars Immortal's expression turned solemn. His gaze swept over the assembled Immortals and the Spirit Medicine Garden before he declared, "This Blessed Land contains a Formation [a mystical array or defensive barrier] laid down by an Earth Immortal Progenitor."

"Furthermore, within the Spirit Medicine Garden itself, there are Restrictive Formations [powerful sealing arrays] left behind by the Earth Immortal. Although many have been breached, gaining entry remains no simple task." This content originates from audio-novel dot com. Please respect copyright.

"Moreover, with so many Immortal [powerful beings who have transcended mortality and attained immortality] watching covetously, it will not be easy to secure a share of the spoils."

He paused briefly, then looked towards Eldrin Chen and said, "Therefore, I wish to invite you to join forces, to contend together for the various Spiritual Object [objects imbued with spiritual power or essence]."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen's gaze flickered with understanding. He now realized that Six Stars Immortal valued his own strength and sought an alliance.

Having reached this conclusion, he exchanged a glance with Void-Refining Immortal [a title for an immortal who refines the void] before replying, "Since you, Fellow Daoist [a respectful term for a fellow cultivator], extend the invitation, I am naturally willing to join forces."

"Excellent."

The three of them smiled upon hearing this, and Six Stars Immortal let out a sigh of relief. "In that case, my mind is at ease," he said.

Even as they conversed, the number of Immortal gathering before the Spirit Medicine Garden [a garden cultivating spiritually potent herbs and plants] continued to swell. In the blink of an eye, their ranks had grown to thirty-six.

Among them, three had reached the ninth level of Ascendant Immortal [the realm just below the peak of immortality]. They were: one Human Race Immortal, Crimson Dragon Scion, and a single divine being [a powerful entity born of faith or celestial essence].

It was at this moment that the ninth-level Ascendant Immortal from the Human Race spoke. "We have gathered enough," he declared. "With over thirty of us Immortal united, our combined strength should be sufficient to breach this Spirit Medicine Garden."

Crimson Dragon Scion gave a curt nod, his expression cold. "It is time," he stated flatly. "If we wait any longer, those who went searching for treasures elsewhere will arrive."

"Then let us begin."

The deity at the Ascendant Immortal Ninth Realm spoke, and with a sweep of his sleeve, he unleashed an Immortal Treasure [a supreme enchanted artifact wielded by Immortals] towards the Spirit Medicine Garden.

Crimson Dragon Scion and the Human Race Immortal [a being who has transcended mortality and achieved immortality] did not hesitate either, immediately launching their attacks towards the ruins.

Seeing the three supreme Immortals at the Ascendant Immortal Ninth Realm take action, none of the others showed the slightest hesitation. They all summoned their Immortal Treasures and joined the assault.

In that moment, more than thirty Immortals attacked in unison. A storm of Immortal Dao Divine Abilities [divine powers born from the Immortal Dao] and Immortal Treasures crashed against the Formation [a mystical defensive or offensive array]. In mere moments, the Formation was shattered.

"Charge!"

Seeing the Restrictive Formation [a formation designed to restrict or seal] broken, Crimson Dragon Scion was the first to rush in. The rest followed without a moment's delay, flying frantically into the heart of the Spirit Medicine Garden.

Eldrin Chen flew in with the crowd when he heard Void-Refining Immortal's urgent reminder: "The Formation will restore itself within two hours. Do not tarry."

"Understood."

Eldrin Chen nodded, his expression grave, and plunged into the depths of the Spirit Medicine Garden.

The group stepped into the Spirit Medicine Garden together, and were instantly met by a surge of overwhelmingly potent spiritual energy [the vital energy that flows through all living things].

Within this Spirit Medicine Garden, the ground was carpeted with precious and exceedingly rare Spirit Medicine, and even Immortal Rank herbs were a common sight.

Time was of the essence. Eldrin Chen could not afford the luxury of careful harvesting. He could only sweep through with his Five-Colored Divine Radiance, and in that brief moment, vast quantities of Spirit Medicine and immortal herbs were gathered, leaving behind a desolate and empty Spirit Medicine Garden.

Yet, he did not commit an act of utter desolation. As he harvested the Spirit Medicine, he also shook loose a great number of seeds, scattering them across the Spirit Medicine Garden.

Thus, after another several hundred thousand or even a million years, this Spirit Medicine Garden would once again flourish as it did now.

But to return to the matter at hand. This chapter is provided by audi novel.com. Support the original.

This Spirit Medicine Garden had gone unharvested for hundreds of thousands of years, and the Spirit Medicine and immortal herbs growing within were exceedingly abundant.

The combined strength of their party was formidable. One or two ordinary Immortal would be utterly powerless to contend with them for these treasures.

Eldrin Chen had lingered within for only a short while, yet he had already collected seven or eight immortal herbs. The Spirit Medicine below the Immortal Rank were beyond counting.

Six Stars Immortal and the others also reaped immense harvests. By the looks of it, each of them had secured at least several precious immortal herbs.

Such a colossal harvest filled the group with immense joy. Six Stars Immortal gazed towards the depths of the Spirit Medicine Garden and declared, "Ahead lies the heart of the Spirit Medicine Garden, where the Immortal Qi [the purest form of spiritual energy cultivated by immortals] is most potent. That is most likely where the Crimson Sun Blessed Land cultivated its true Immortal Medicines."

"The place where Immortal Medicines are cultivated?"

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a surge of both anticipation and solemn caution.

The core area, dedicated solely to nurturing Immortal Medicines, could rightfully be called an Immortal Medicine Garden.

They had merely scavenged a portion from the periphery of the Spirit Medicine Garden and already acquired several dozen priceless Immortal Medicines. If they were to enter the true garden, wouldn't their gains be exponentially greater?

Yet, it was equally clear that this Immortal Medicine Garden would be the most coveted prize for all the Immortal present. Figures like the Crimson Dragon Scion and other Ninth-Level Ascendant Immortal had already charged into its depths.

Given their current strength, attempting to venture into the inner sanctum to claim a share would likely precipitate a battle of extraordinary peril.

However, treasures stir the hearts of men. With five Immortal united, even a Ninth-Level Ascension Immortal Realm powerhouse might not be their match. There was truly no reason to hold back.

After exchanging a determined glance with his companions, the Six Stars Immortal took the lead, soaring inward without hesitation.

The others followed closely behind, their figures streaking like comets as they flew into the very heart of the Spirit Medicine Garden.

Eldrin Chen followed the others inside, but the moment he arrived before the Spirit Medicine Garden [a garden cultivating rare spiritual herbs and plants], his expression shifted subtly.

Before the garden's entrance, an immensely powerful figure was unleashing a relentless assault, forcing several Immortal [a cultivator who has ascended to immortality] into a steady retreat.

It was a colossal serpent, its entire body forged from azure-gold metal, radiating a terrifying and awe-inspiring power.

Even Crimson Dragon Scion and the other two ninth-level Ascendant Immortal [an immortal who has ascended to a higher state of being] joining forces could not subdue it for the moment.

"This is..."

Eldrin Chen's face changed, a note of astonishment in his voice.

Seeing this, Six Stars Immortal explained with grave seriousness, "This is the Heaven-Mimic Serpent [a serpentine construct designed to mimic the power of heaven], likely an Immortal Treasure [a treasure of immortal grade] puppet left within the Formation [a mystical array or defensive barrier] by the ancient Crimson Sun Blessed Land."

"Drawing power from the Formation, this Heaven-Mimic Serpent possesses strength no less than a peak-level Immortal."

"Its presence here suggests it was left by the Earth Immortal Progenitor [a progenitor immortal deeply connected to the earth] as a final safeguard for the Spirit Medicine Garden."

At that moment, Crimson Dragon Scion, seeing the newcomers arrive, exclaimed with a gleam in his eyes, "Your timing is perfect! Join forces with us swiftly to defeat this Heaven-Mimic Serpent. Otherwise, none shall claim the treasures of this garden."

Time was of the essence. With a shared glance, the group acted in perfect, unspoken unison, unleashing their attacks.

With the aid of four Late Stage Ascendant Immortal RealmImmortal [powerful cultivators who have ascended to a high stage of immortality], they finally managed to suppress the Heaven-Mimic Serpent.

Seizing the opening, the Human RaceAscendant Immortal of the ninth layer [a human cultivator at the peak of the Ascendant Immortal realm] conjured forth a vast net, ensnaring the Heaven-Mimic Serpent before instantly darting into the Immortal Herb Garden.

"A perfect chance."

Eldrin Chen's eyes also lit up. In a flash, he transformed into a streak of rainbow light and shot into the garden after them. This chapter is provided by audio-novel .c om. Support the original.
