Chapter 1047 : A Quest for Twin Treasures

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen gave a firm nod.

Regardless, the Heavenly Dragon Relic was a rare and divine treasure; it was indeed a journey he should undertake.

However, obtaining the Heavenly Dragon Relic ultimately depended on fate and affinity. Eldrin Chen dared not guarantee that myself would be able to acquire it.

Thus, Eldrin Chen turned his gaze towards Sky Feather Immortal and inquired, "Might I ask where the Vast Sea Divine Pearl [a legendary pearl of immense oceanic power] resides at present?"

"The Vast Sea Divine Pearl..."

Upon hearing this, Sky Feather Immortal pondered for a moment before speaking. "That treasure is also known as the Vast Sea Luminous Pearl. In truth, it is a supreme treasure of the Vast Sea Immortal Clam lineage, the overlords of the Glazed Sea."

"The Vast Sea Immortal Clam is a rare Myth-rank variant species. While its combat prowess is not formidable among peers of its realm, it possesses the rare ability to nurture and birth many precious treasures."

"The Vast Sea Luminous Pearl is precisely the pearl nurtured by such an Immortal Clam. It is said it can also serve as a supreme treasure for nurturing a fetus."

As Sky Feather Immortal elaborated, Eldrin Chen gradually came to understand the origins of this Vast Sea Divine Pearl.

Yet, after finishing his explanation, Sky Feather Immortal's expression turned grave. "Although the Vast Sea Immortal Clam clan is a gentle-natured spirit race, they are quite wary of Immortal-rank beings from other races." Immerse yourself in the complete world at audio‑novel.com.

"Even if you wish to seek them out and demand the Vast Sea Divine Pearl [a legendary pearl of immense power born from the ocean's depths], it is far from certain you would succeed."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen's heart sank slightly.

Demon Immortals [powerful beings who have ascended from spiritual origins] transformed from Spiritual Objects [objects imbued with and radiating spiritual energy] such as Spirit Fish [fish that have absorbed spiritual energy], Spirit Clams [clams that have cultivated spiritual energy, often producing spiritual pearls], and spiritual plants are mostly renowned for their gentle temperaments. However, many Immortals [beings who have achieved a high level of cultivation and longevity] have the habit of keeping spiritual races in captivity, which naturally breeds resentment among them.

If myself were to go there rashly, it is unlikely I could persuade them.

"What if we resort to force?"

As Eldrin Chen pondered this silently, he saw the Sky Feather Immortal shake his head and say, "Among the Vast Sea Immortal Clam [a venerable and powerful clan of clams that have achieved immortality] clan, there exists an exceedingly rare divine mollusk, a variant species. Its bloodline is extraordinarily potent, and its cultivation has long since reached the Earth Immortal Realm [a profound realm of immortality where one's power is deeply connected to the earth]."

"With your current level of cultivation..."

The Sky Feather Immortal shook his head once more, leaving the sentence unfinished.

Only then did Eldrin Chen understand. The Glazed Sea [a vast, crystalline ocean realm] occupied by the Vast Sea Immortal Clam clan was no less formidable than the Setting Sun Sea [a sea known for its perpetual twilight]. Within it lay a Glazed Blessed Land [a sanctified realm of spiritual abundance], an existence that commanded awe throughout the Western Qi Divine Abyss Sea [the Western Divine Abyss Sea, a region of profound and dangerous waters].

"There is no need for concern, either."

At that very moment, Violet Flame Immortal Maiden suddenly spoke up.

She turned her gaze towards Eldrin Chen, her eyes thoughtful as she said, "In the past, on Green Chariot Island, I met several of your esteemed wives. One among them seemed to possess the form of a transformed Immortal Clam [a mythical clam demon beast of immense longevity and spiritual power]."

"The Spirit Race [a race of beings born from spiritual objects or phenomena] is gentle in nature and may harbor some aversion towards Immortals of other races, yet they are exceedingly kind to their own kin. You could take your esteemed wife on a journey to the Glazed Sea [a vast, crystalline sea realm inhabited by the Spirit Race]."

Upon hearing this, Sky Feather Immortal also smiled and added, "That Vast Sea Immortal Clam produces a considerable number of Vast Sea Divine Pearls [divine pearls of immense spiritual power, born from the Vast Sea Immortal Clam]. Every few years, it offers some for trade. I believe it would likely be willing to assist a fellow clansman."

"Thank you for the advice."

Heart leaping with joy at these words, Eldrin Chen took out ten Immortal Sources [a condensed source of pure immortal energy, extremely rare and valuable] and offered them, saying, "My gratitude for your guidance. Please accept this small token of my appreciation."

"We both have made our home in the Crimson Dragon Sea, sharing a common destiny. There is no need for such extravagance between us."

Sky Feather Immortal shook his head and firmly pushed the Immortal Sources back.

Before parting, he offered one final piece of advice with a smile, "If you still cannot find the divine object you seek in these two places, Fellow Daoist [a respectful term for a fellow cultivator], do not be disheartened. A Millennium [a cycle of one thousand years] from now, the Flowing Stream Hundred Seas [a region of interconnected seas and flowing spiritual currents] will host a Barter Convention [a grand gathering where cultivators trade rare treasures and resources]."

"If you attend then, as long as you can afford the price, you will undoubtedly be able to purchase the treasure you desire."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen's gaze flickered with understanding. He promptly cupped his hands in a respectful salute and said, "My thanks for the reminder."

Since his ascension a Millennium ago, Eldrin Chen had gained a certain understanding of the surrounding Immortal Domain [the realm of immortals], and was no longer completely in the dark.

Within this expanse known as the Western Qi Divine Abyss Sea, there were fully three thousand such maritime domains, like the Crimson Dragon Sea and the Setting Sun Sea.

Each sea was composed of myriad island chains, and this collective region, formed by over a hundred surrounding seas, was known as the Flowing Stream Hundred Seas.

Among these Flowing Stream Hundred Seas, there were a total of eight Earth Immortal Blessed Land [sanctuaries where Earth Immortals reside and cultivate]. The rest were mostly overseen by Ancient Ancestors who had reached the Half-Step Earth Immortal Realm.

A very few, weaker domains—such as the Crimson Dragon Sea—lacked even a single Ancient Ancestor at the Half-Step Earth Immortal Realm. This chapter appears courtesy of www . audio-novel.com.

This vast assembly of over a hundred seas, forming the Flowing Stream Hundred Seas, hosted a grand Barter Convention once every fifty thousand years.

For Immortals, this was a rare and magnificent gathering. Earth Immortal Progenitors [the founding-level Earth Immortals] almost always participated, and many treasures usually difficult to obtain would appear during that time.

Whether one could purchase a coveted treasure, however, ultimately depended on whether myself could afford the price.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen felt a slight settling in his heart. Since a Barter Convention of this caliber existed, he now held a measure of confidence in his ability to procure the treasures he sought.

After all, the current Eldrin Chen possessed a fortune that could be considered quite substantial even among Immortals [beings who have ascended to a higher plane of existence, possessing immense power and longevity].

"I must still thank you, Fellow Daoist [a respectful term for a fellow cultivator], for informing me. In that case, I shall not impose any longer."

Anticipating that he might soon locate the treasure, Eldrin Chen felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

After bidding farewell to the two Immortals, he set off towards Verdant Chariot Mountain.

Sky Feather Immortal rose to escort Eldrin Chen beyond the bounds of Immortal Island. Only after Eldrin Chen's figure had vanished from sight did he turn back, a thoughtful expression on his face, and speak to Violet Flame Immortal Maiden:

"This Eldrin Chen has been Ascending to Immortality [the process of becoming an Immortal] for little more than a thousand years, yet he has already seized a great many treasures from ancient ruins and, it is said, repelled Crimson Dragon Scion when he came seeking trouble."

"This shows his opportunities, his methods, and his temperament are far beyond the ordinary. In days to come, he will surely not remain a creature confined to a pond."

Violet Flame Immortal Maiden's eyes were as calm as still water. After a moment, she nodded and said, "I fear that within several hundred thousand years, Crimson Dragon Sea will produce an Earth Immortal Progenitor [a supreme cultivator who has attained the Earth Immortal realm and founded a lineage]."

Sky Feather Immortal, recalling something else, could not help but glance at the nearby Melody Lu and ask, "What is your assessment of this man?"

"He..."

Melody Lu's complexion was somewhat pale, and a flicker of hesitation colored her expression.

She pressed her lips together, her Dual Pupils rippling with waves of Primordial Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state before creation]. After a long silence, she finally spoke: "It is like an abyss, like an ocean, like the vast expanse of the starry sky, akin to the Great Thousand Universe [the boundless cosmos containing myriad worlds]."

"When I look upon him, it is as an ant gazing at the heavens—I cannot see through him…"

Eldrin Chen transformed into a rainbow light and soared through the skies, arriving shortly after upon Green Chariot Island.

Seeing his return, his several consorts wore expressions of excitement. Yvonne the Violet Consort could not help but step forward and ask, "How did it go?"

"There were some gains."

Eldrin Chen nodded and retrieved the Soul-Enlightening Pearl [a divine treasure said to nurture and enlighten the soul of an unborn child].

Seeing this, Lila's eyes lit up slightly as she said, "Is this the divine treasure for nurturing the fetus?"

"Indeed. This is the Soul-Enlightening Pearl."

Eldrin Chen nodded and immediately explained, "This Soul-Enlightening Pearl can open the eye apertures [special spiritual nodes related to vision and perception]. However, what kind of eye aperture is ultimately awakened depends on Creation [the workings of destiny and fortune]."

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Among the various Divine Eyes [mystical ocular abilities], each one is vastly different.

There are powerful ones like the Heaven-Opening Double Pupils, the Illusion-Shattering Immortal Eyes, and the Fiery Golden Eyes, as well as slightly weaker Immortal Eyes [a category of mystical ocular abilities] such as the Barrier-Breaking Divine Eyes, the Evil-Slaying Violet Eyes, and the Violet Zenith Demon Eyes.

Each of these Divine Eyes possesses its own wondrous uses, and the potential they represent varies greatly.

For most, their latent potential is exhausted upon reaching the Ascension to Immortality Realm. Yet, the most formidable, such as the Heaven-Cleaving Divine Eyes and the Fiery Golden Eyes, hold the possibility of cultivation all the way to the Earth Immortal and even the Heaven Immortal Realm.

Furthermore, the Innate Divine Ability inherent to a Divine Eye can serve as a signature technique, even for one who has attained the realm of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. For the best reading experience, visit @udio-novel.com.
