Chapter 1036 : The Fallen Pillar and the Crimson Sun

"Now!"

Seeing this, Azure Simurgh Immortal Maiden instantly summoned a length of azure silk, which swiftly coiled around the Heaven Pillar.

This silk was named the Gale-Feather Silk Ribbon [a supreme-grade immortal treasure of incredible resilience and flexibility], Azure Simurgh Immortal Maiden's signature treasure, and its grade ranked among the Supreme Grade Immortal Treasure.

Like the final straw that breaks the camel's back, the ribbon wrapped around the pillar and pulled with immense force, toppling the colossal Heaven Pillar.

"KABOOM!"

In that ksana-time [an infinitesimal unit of time], one of the Four Extremities Heaven Pillars collapsed. The entire Earth Immortal World began to tremble violently.

Eldrin Chen felt the heavens spin and the earth turn; the vast Earth Immortal World seemed on the verge of flipping over entirely.

"Success!"

Watching the Heaven Pillar topple and transform into a piece of Divine Wood, the group's faces lit up with joy.

The Duskfall Scion, who sought to seize the Divine Wood, saw it snatched away by Azure Simurgh Immortal Maiden. His expression darkened with palpable fury, and he nearly lunged forward to wrest it back by force. Find this and other novels at audio_novel.com.

Seeing this, the Azure Simurgh Immortal Maiden spoke calmly, "There are four Four Extremities Heaven Pillars. We can each take one and still have one to spare. Why be so hasty to turn hostile?"

The Azure Firmament Goddess was about to speak when her expression instantly turned grave.

For the heavens and earth trembled abruptly. At the far end of the boundless Firmament, a hazy, luminous source blossomed open.

"It has awakened!"

The three murmured, their faces all etched with profound solemnity.

Eldrin Chen looked up to see a crimson sun slowly descending from the infinite Firmament above.

At first, they all thought it was a true sun. Yet, as it drifted downward, its silhouette gradually clarified, revealing its true form to the onlookers.

It was an immeasurably ancient Alchemy Furnace. It seemed forged of ruddy copper, its entire body engraved with myriad mottled patterns, exuding an aura of profound antiquity.

With but a single glance, Eldrin Chen sensed that this Alchemy Furnace was older than the very world itself.

It had endured tens of millions of years, an ancient supreme treasure born even before the creation of this realm.

In the primordial dawn of this world's creation, an ancient Immortal [a being who has transcended mortality and attained eternal life] used this object to World Creation [the act of shaping the cosmos from chaos], infusing it with the exceedingly rare and precious World-Initiating Qi [the primordial breath that gives birth to all existence]. It ultimately transformed into a World-Opening Treasure [a supreme artifact born from the act of world creation, possessing foundational cosmic power].

Indeed, this was a World-Opening Treasure [a supreme artifact born from the act of world creation, possessing foundational cosmic power].

Its name was the 'Solar Flame Divine Furnace' [the Divine Furnace of Solar Flames], one of this world's Three Treasures of World Creation [the three supreme artifacts used to forge the cosmos]. It was also the sole World-Opening Treasure [a supreme artifact born from the act of world creation, possessing foundational cosmic power] that had fused with the World-Initiating Qi [the primordial breath that gives birth to all existence].

"*Hum*."

In that very instant, a profound silence descended upon heaven and earth.

Eldrin Chen looked up. He saw the Solar Flame Divine Furnace [the Divine Furnace of Solar Flames] unleash countless Law Divine Chains [chains forged from the fundamental laws of reality, used to bind and stabilize]. An immeasurably vast power pierced through the cosmos, miraculously steadying the heavens and earth that had been on the verge of collapse.

Immediately after, the Solar Flame Divine Furnace [the Divine Furnace of Solar Flames] trembled slightly. It descended with crushing force, aiming to suppress Duskfall Scion, Azure Firmament Goddess, and the Azure Simurgh Immortal Maiden.

"Hold it back!"

Witnessing the Solar Flame Divine Furnace [the Divine Furnace of Solar Flames] bearing down upon them, expressions of utmost gravity settled upon the faces of all three.

Daring not to hold back in the slightest, they instantly unleashed their most formidable techniques, channeling their power to counter the Solar Flame Divine Furnace's [the Divine Furnace of Solar Flames] devastating descent.

In a single Ksana-time [an infinitesimal unit of time from Buddhist cosmology, less than a second], the Myriad Miles Duskfall Pearl, the Gale-Feather Silk Ribbon, and the Azure Firmament Divine Thunder Mirror erupted forth in rapid succession, clashing violently against the Solar Flame Divine Furnace.

This was a collision between a Supreme Grade Immortal Treasure and a World-Opening Treasure; from the very first strike, it possessed the power to sunder heaven and cleave earth.

In that fleeting moment, the entire world resounded with a thunderous roar. Within the vast expanse of the Earth Immortal Blessed Land [a sanctuary of profound spiritual energy and natural laws], mountains, rivers, and Ronan's flows were displaced, and the very terrain underwent a massive transformation.

Affected by this upheaval, structures within the Blessed Land such as the Scripture Repository [a hall storing cultivation manuals and ancient texts] erupted with dazzling light, and dozens of radiant streams of light actually flew out from within them.

It seemed that spiritual objects possess awareness. Many of the immortal-grade treasures within the Earth Immortal Blessed Land, sensing the imminent danger of the Blessed Land collapsing, had actually flown out from the Scripture Repository and the Artifact Forging Pavilion [a workshop for crafting magical artifacts].

"A fine opportunity!" Access the full story on audi novel.com.

Witnessing the dozens of radiant streams flying out, many Immortal [beings who have ascended to a higher state of existence through cultivation] immediately surged forward, beginning to vie for them.

Eldrin Chen and the Void-Refining Immortal [an immortal title signifying mastery over refining the void] were not slow either; in the time it takes for lightning to flash and flint to spark, they had each seized a stream of immortal light.

Due to the sheer number of contenders, Eldrin Chen only had time to secure two ancient scrolls before he realized the majority of the Spiritual Object [objects imbued with or containing spiritual energy] had been claimed by the host of immortals.

He was just preparing to withdraw when he noticed, from within the Artifact Forging Pavilion, a massive black-gold cauldron densely covered with dragon patterns soaring into the sky, flying directly toward his own position.

And pursuing closely behind the great cauldron was none other than the Crimson Dragon Scion.

"Forged from Dragon-Patterned Black Gold?"

"Most likely a heavy treasure of immense value."

With fortune right before his eyes, Eldrin Chen acted decisively. His Five-Colored Divine Radiance swept forth, collecting the great cauldron before he transformed into a streak of light, flying out of the ancient ruins.

Behind him, the Crimson Dragon Scion wore a visage of utter madness, roaring with boundless fury, "You dare steal my treasure, Eldrin, the Junior?! You deserve death!"

Faced with the Crimson Dragon Scion's frenzy, Eldrin Chen remained utterly unperturbed, his expression unchanging.

He and the Void-Refining Immortal flew out of the ruins together. Before parting ways, Eldrin glanced back and saw that the great battle in the void had already reached its conclusion.

The Solar Flame Divine Furnace contained within it the power of world-creation, further bolstered by the strength of an entire Earth Immortal World. The force it unleashed suppressed all opposition. Even the combined might of three peak Immortals, each wielding a Supreme Grade Immortal Treasure, was insufficient to prevail.

All three were defeated, with no possibility of turning the tide.

The Azure Simurgh [a mythical bird of auspicious omen, often depicted with brilliant azure and green plumage] was wounded and bleeding. It fled deep into a spatial rift and vanished in an instant, its whereabouts unknown.

The Azure Firmament Goddess [a goddess associated with the azure sky and thunder] transformed into a streak of lightning, vanishing to an unknown location. Duskfall Scion was barely holding on, relying on the Myriad Miles Duskfall Pearl [a mystical pearl embodying the power of dusk over vast distances] to resist, and was currently fleeing outward from the Earth Immortal World [a realm of cultivation for Earth Immortals].

With another glance, Eldrin Chen realized he was already outside the ruins.

"Let's go!"

Without a moment's hesitation, Eldrin Chen immediately departed with the Void-Refining Immortal [an immortal title signifying mastery over refining the void], vanishing into the void in the blink of an eye.

The two had no time to inventory their treasures. After a journey lasting several months, they finally returned to the Crimson Dragon Sea.

Upon their return to the Crimson Dragon Sea, they made their way directly to Green Chariot Island.

"How did it go?"

Seeing the two return in such haste, Lyra Jiang and Verdant Consort [a title for a powerful consort associated with verdant life] hurried over, immediately pressing them with questions.

Eldrin Chen exchanged a look with the Void-Refining Immortal, then took a deep breath and said, "Let's first see what treasures we obtained."

"Agreed."

Void-Refining Immortal [a title for an immortal who refines the void] also nodded in agreement.

As they spoke, the two of them brought forth the spoils from their journey.

When they displayed the harvest from this venture, even Lyra Jiang [a female cultivator] underwent a drastic change in expression, exclaiming with immense shock, "How could there be so much?"

"Even more than we imagined."

Gazing upon the treasures before him, Eldrin Chen [the male protagonist] drew a deep breath.

Although this treasure hunt had been fraught with extreme peril, even incurring the enmity of Crimson Dragon Scion [a descendant of a crimson dragon] and Zephyr the Immortal [an immortal known as Zephyr], it had also yielded immense rewards for the pair.

Eldrin Chen took stock, swiftly sorting through the gains.

The treasures they acquired this time were exceedingly numerous and could broadly be categorized into three main types: Immortal Treasure [powerful artifacts used by immortals], ancient books of inheritance, and Immortal Herbs [herbs of immortal grade] or Spirit Medicine [plants imbued with spiritual energy].

Among these, Spirit Medicine were the most abundant. As the Blessed Land [a land of fortune] and the Earth Immortal Realm [a realm of earthly immortals] had remained untouched by harvest for hundreds of thousands of years, they had accumulated a countless multitude of Spirit Medicine.

Eldrin Chen performed a simple tally and discovered that the Spirit Medicine he himself had obtained numbered in the millions of plants.

Most of these Spirit Medicine were only at the Golden Core or Nascent Soul level, yet there was no shortage of Pure Yang Spiritual Herbs [spiritual herbs imbued with the purest Yang energy] that surpassed the Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] realm.

Just the Sixth Rank Pure Yang Spiritual Herbs alone that Eldrin Chen harvested numbered over three thousand stalks. Among them were more than thirty ancient herbs that had transcended their inherent limits.

These ancient herbs had surpassed the limits of the Primordial Spirit realm. Within them, a wisp of Immortal Qi [the foundational energy of immortals] had been nurtured; they were but a single step away from their final metamorphosis into true Immortal Herbs [herbs of celestial grade, containing immortal essence].
