Chapter 1056. 30-3 Dinghai Divine Pearls

The fetus had absorbed a total of 30 Oceanic Divine Pearls, letting out what seemed like a satisfied burp as it approached its absolute limit.

Yet, Glazed Immortal Lord refused to yield. He took out his final 6 spirit stones and began refining them.

But this time, it took Glazed Spirit Lord many days just to barely refine 3 of them into it, and he could refine no more.

30-3 Ocean-Quelling Pearls.

In the end, a look of boundless delight mingled with regret crossed Divine Lord Liuli’s face as he spoke.

She seemed to sense something and handed the remaining 3 Sea-Calming Pearls to Eldrin, saying, "With 30-3 Sea-Calming Pearls, such talent would likely be considered peerless even among the Great Perfected Golden Immortals."

"These 30-3 divine beads are akin to the 30-3 heavens themselves. Relying on them as protective spiritual treasures, even when reaching the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, this child will be able to prevail undefeated across the realms."

"Yet it still fell short by 3 pearls from achieving perfection, failing to reach the ultimate potential of the Sea-Calming Pearls."

Eldrin listened quietly to the words of the Glazed Divine Lord, and a glimmer of enlightenment dawned within his heart.

Once the 30-6 Ocean God Pearls are fused, this child's foundation will shake the heavens and the earth, possessing the bearing of a Dao Ancestor or Celestial Saint from the moment of birth.

However, achieving the status of a Dao Ancestor or Immortal Sage was no simple feat. The Heavenly Dao would never permit any being to be born with such innate qualifications.

The child sought to refine these final 3 Oceanic Divine Pearls, mending the flaws in his foundation and fortifying his reserves, for he would soon face a cataclysmic tribulation of immeasurable scale.

If 1 were to survive that Tribulation, they could mend the flaws in their foundation and even glimpse the possibility of attaining the Dao Ancestor or Immortal Sage realm.

Yet should he fail to transcend it, he would inevitably be reduced to ashes beneath the heavenly tribulation—not even a Da Luo Golden Immortal could save him then.

"Heavenly Tribulation!"

Eldrin (Person Name) let out a soft sigh as he stored away the 3 Oceanic Divine Pearls (Magic Treasure), his gaze resolute. "Those born extraordinary are destined for a fate beyond ordinary comprehension," he declared.

"I believe my child can cut through thorns and thistles, vanquish all foes, and mend the flaws in his foundation."

Hearing this, the Glazed Divine Lord nodded slightly and said, "This child is born with the bearing of a Great Perfected 1. His foundation is no weaker than that of the top-tier Primordial Divinities."

"To prevent others from coveting it, it would be best to first seal part of the Canghai Divine Pearl and refrain from using it unless absolutely necessary."

"Very well." Eldrin nodded, promptly saying with courtesy, "I appreciate your guidance, Elder."

Seeing this, the Glazed Goddess immediately channeled her immortal energy and sealed away 15 of the Oceanic Divine Pearls.

The remaining 18 Oceanic Divine Pearls can reveal the potential of a celestial aptitude, and can also become this child’s supreme treasures for safeguarding their path.

With these 18 Ocean God Pearls (Magic Treasure) protecting him, this child will likely be nearly invincible among peers of the same realm until he breaks through to the Earth Immortal stage.

Yet at the brink of life and death, the restrictions left by the Glazed Divine Lord would loosen. With all 30-3 Sea-Calming Pearls unleashed, her combat power would likely rival that of Eldrin (Person Name) within the same realm.

You must understand, Eldrin's foundational potential was unprecedented since ancient times, enabling him to suppress late-stage Ascension cultivators while only at the early stage of Ascension, without relying on any external assistance.

With such formidable power, there might be none in the entire Qingcang Immortal Realm who could rival him.

And this child, relying on his companion spirit treasure, possessed such formidable strength—truly a testament to his astonishing nature.

Of course, although these Sea-Calming Pearls are companion spirit treasures, mastering them completely would likely prove far from easy.

Simultaneously controlling the 30-3 Sea-Calming Pearls required not only refining and mastering each 1 individually, but also their continuous sacrificial cultivation.

To get back to the main story, seeing the matter come to a close, the Glazed Divine Monarch couldn't help but feel a slight sense of relief.

She cast a glance toward Seraphina Qu (Person Name) before addressing the 2, "The child will require another 1 1000 years before entering this world. Until then, for the safety of both mother and child, you should remain within the Glazed Paradise."

"This..."

Eldrin (Person Name) wore a hesitant expression, but after a moment, he still drew a deep breath.

He knew it would be wiser to remain in Glazed Paradise (Location), yet 4 wives awaited him at Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location)—he could never abandon them.

Yet with Seraphina Qu pregnant, leaving her alone in Glazed Paradise left Eldrin deeply unsettled.

After much deliberation, he shook his head and said, "Rest assured, I am more than capable of ensuring their safety."

"You..."

A faint solemnity crossed Divine Lord Liuli’s countenance. Seeing the look of wifely devotion on Seraphina Qu (Person Name)’s face, she could only shake her head with a wry smile.

Helpless, she let out a soft sigh and said, "Since your minds are set, then go."

As the Glazed Immortal Lord finished speaking, he drew a jade pendant from his robes.

This jade pendant shimmered with 7-colored immortal light, clearly no ordinary object.

Liuli Shenjun handed it to the 2 of them before speaking, "This is a protective immortal talisman I forged. It can withstand an attack from an Earth Immortal at a critical moment."

"If you encounter a formidable foe, you may produce this item. Most ordinary Earth Immortals would likely refrain from attacking you upon seeing it."

Eldrin gazed at the jade pendant, then fastened it onto Seraphina Qu's person before speaking solemnly, "My deepest gratitude for this generous gift, Elder. I shall engrave this kindness upon my heart for eternity."

"Keep it in your heart."

"Remember, once the child is born, send Seraphina Qu (Person Name) back immediately. I must still assist her in transforming into a 9-Colored Immortal Clam."

Before parting, the Glazed Divine Lord repeatedly emphasized her instructions, finally watching as the 2 departed.

After they had departed, the 3 Elders—Sun Ji(Person Name), Moon Ji(Person Name)—stepped forward.

Yue Ji gazed in the direction where the 2 had departed and sighed involuntarily. "To think the Ancestor would willingly pay such a steep price upon their first meeting—what extraordinary fortune these 2 possess."

"Alas!"

Glazed Immortal Lord shook his head, a faint sigh coloring his expression. "Over 20 million years ago, I offered 30-6 Ocean-Calming Pearls, and the Divine Abyss Paradise assisted me in surviving 3 Dao Tribulations."

"As the saying goes, 3 parts of fate exhausted, the fourth Heavenly Tribulation approaches with unprecedented peril."

"That individual made it clear that unless I am willing to become his concubine, he would not risk entering the tribulation to assist me. Naturally, further preparations are required."

"Damn it!"

Upon hearing this, Riji's eyes subtly chilled.

The other 2 elders could not help but wear solemn expressions upon hearing this.

Our own family knows our own affairs. The Glazed Divine Lord possesses the aptitude of a Celestial Immortal. As long as she survives the fourth Heavenly Tribulation, she stands a considerable chance of breaking through to the Celestial Immortal Realm. Even if she fails, she will undoubtedly achieve the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm.

Whether it was the Heavenly Immortal Realm or the Half-Step Heavenly Immortal stage, both were extraordinary. Once 1 successfully broke through, they would undoubtedly become 1 of the most pivotal figures in the Xī Qì Shén Yuān Hǎi.

Within the Divine Abyss Grotto-Heaven, it was only to be expected that some would not wish to see her achieve a breakthrough.

Yet they could never have imagined that the master of the Divine Abyss Grotto-Heaven demanded Qu Wuli (Person Name) to become his concubine in exchange for assisting her through this heavenly tribulation.

The Divine Abyss Cave Heaven had a clever scheme in mind. If successful, they would not only gain the fertile Glazed Sea but also add a Celestial Immortal powerhouse to their ranks.

However, Glazed Spirit Monarch was proud and ambitious, with aspirations to reach the Celestial Immortal realm. A mere master of the Divine Abyss Cave Heaven could never compel her to willingly become a concubine.

Lost in thought, Glazed Spirit Lord (Person Name) stood atop the celestial firmament, her gaze fixed upon the direction where the 2 had departed. After a long silence, she murmured, "The Heavenly Tribulation occurs but once every 10 million years. The next 1 approaches in just over 1 million years."

"That Eldrin possesses extraordinary talent, and his child even shows the bearing of a Great Luo. A million years might just be enough time for them to fully mature."

"I hope this favor shall suffice to aid this sovereign in transcending the present Dao calamity and glimpsing the realm of Celestial Immortality."

Chapter 1: The Prodigy's Fall The mountain mist coiled like ancient serpents, shrouding the Qingyun Sect's training grounds in an otherworldly haze. Ling Xuan stood at the edge of the Cliff of Enlightenment, his white robes fluttering in the spiritual wind that carried whispers of forgotten cultivation techniques. "Senior Brother Ling, the Grand Elder summons you," called a junior disciple, bowing deeply. Ling Xuan's lips curved into a faint smile. 3 years ago, he had been the sect's brightest hope, the youngest cultivator to reach the Foundation Establishment realm in a century. Now, at merely 20 years of age, he carried the burden of a crippled spiritual root. The Main Hall towered before them, its pillars carved with coiling dragons that seemed to breathe the very essence of heaven and earth. Elder Ming Zhen sat upon the jade meditation platform, his eyes holding the wisdom of countless years. "Ling Xuan," the elder's voice echoed like distant thunder, "the Sect Tournament approaches. As a direct disciple, you must participate." Ling Xuan bowed, his movements still graceful despite his condition. "This unworthy disciple understands. Though my cultivation has stagnated at the 7th level of Qi Condensation, I shall not bring shame to our sect." Elder Ming Zhen sighed, the sound carrying the weight of millennia. "The path of cultivation is paved with countless trials. Remember, even the mightiest flood begins as a single drop of rain." Later, in the seclusion of his cave abode, Ling Xuan examined his meager resources. His spatial ring contained only 1,230 spirit stones and a dozen or so basic healing pills. The other disciples had thousands, some even tens of thousands. "Junior Brother," a melodious voice interrupted his thoughts. Su Li, the sect's beloved junior sister, stood at his cave entrance, her emerald eyes filled with concern. "I've brought you something." She placed a jade bottle in his palm. "3 Middle Grade Spirit Gathering Pills. They might help you break through to the 8th level." Ling Xuan's heart warmed. "Thank you, Senior Sister. But these are too precious. You should save them for your own cultivation." "Nonsense," she insisted, her determination as sharp as the legendary Frost Moon Blade. "We stand together, through tribulation and triumph." As night fell, Ling Xian sat cross-legged on his stone bed, circulating the Heaven Swallowing Art. Suddenly, a searing pain erupted in his dantian. The ancient jade pendant his mother had left him - which had been dormant for years - began glowing with ethereal light. A thunderous voice echoed in his consciousness: "To swallow heaven and earth, 1 must first endure the unendurable. The path to godhood begins where mortal limits end." When Ling Xuan opened his eyes, dawn was breaking. To his astonishment, he had not only broken through to the 8th level but could now see the spiritual energy flowing through everything around him. The world had transformed into a tapestry of shimmering energy patterns. He examined the jade pendant, now cool against his chest. Faint characters glimmered on its surface: "Heaven Devouring Scripture - Legacy of the Void Emperor." A fierce light ignited in Ling Xuan's eyes. The upcoming tournament would be his stage. Let them mock the prodigy who fell from grace. They would soon witness the return of a legend. "The heavens have eyes," he whispered to the rising sun. "And today, they have chosen to see through mine."
