Chapter 1114 9 Immortals in 1 Clan

However, the Starlight Glazed Realm, a Heaven-tier superior-grade treasure, could only accommodate 9 immortals for cultivation. Adding any more would render its supply insufficient.

Eldrin possessed the Primordial Purple Qi and was confident in elevating the Starlight Glazed Realm to a supreme immortal treasure. Yet, undertaking such a feat would inevitably attract the covetous attention of Earth Immortal Patriarchs.

Therefore, before he was confident he could protect the Starlight Glazed Realm, Eldrin dared not take this risk.

At this thought, Eldrin spoke: "Everyone, today I've gathered you here not only to celebrate Ziji and Lila's ascension to immortality, but also to discuss the future development of our Chen Immortal Clan."

Upon hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned.

The Black Tortoise Patriarch and the Palace Mistress of Drifting Snow exchanged a glance, then inquired, "What does the Clan Leader mean?"

Currently, there are a total of 17 immortal islands in the Crimson Dragon Sea. Our human race occupies 4, the demon race holds 8, and the divine lineage claims 5.

Within the demon race, the Crimson Dragon Clan alone occupied a full 6 immortal islands.

Eldrin spoke with a measured tone, his expression sharpening as he declared, "Our Chen Immortal Clan now boasts 8 immortals among our ranks, making our strength a notch above that of the Crimson Dragon lineage."

"Yet we remain confined to this Qingyuan Island, which is no different from sitting idly and consuming our resources without replenishment."

At this point, everyone understood Eldrin intended to compete for resources in the Crimson Dragon Sea, and their expressions grew solemn.

Li Huang brimmed with confidence, rising swiftly to declare, "Wherever you wish to conquer, Master, I shall be the first to charge into battle."

Sit.

Eldrin waved his hand and rapped his knuckles on the table. "Though we currently hold the advantage over the Crimson Dragon Clan, achieving total victory remains beyond our grasp. 1 careless move would leave both sides devastated."

"Therefore, this time I intend to focus primarily on cultivating immortal veins."

As he spoke thus, with a flick of his sleeve, he manifested a map.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was a map of the Crimson Dragon Sea, prompting them all to examine it with earnest attention.

Eldrin's magical power coalesced into the Crimson Dragon Sea, its vast expanse and scattered islands vividly manifesting upon it.

Eldrin designated Green Abyss Island as a central point, marking out a vast expanse of sea within the Crimson Dragon Ocean.

"This is?"

The Palace Master of Drifting Snow’s pupils contracted slightly as she couldn’t resist asking.

Lyra nodded thoughtfully and said, "The Sky Sand Archipelago!"

"Exactly!"

Eldrin nodded, his eyes gleaming with fervor.

The Tian Sha Archipelago was the most fertile sea region within the Crimson Dragon Sea, situated at the convergence of the human, demon, and deity races—each occupying a vast expanse of these majestic waters.

Among them, the demon race occupied 30 percent, Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location) claimed 10 percent, the divine race held 10 percent, while the remaining 50 percent consisted of unclaimed seas.

This sea area was exceptionally bountiful, with islands scattered across its expanse like stars in the sky, all situated in shallow waters of modest depth.

Across these seas, there were millions upon millions of spirit stone veins, both large and small. Countless rare mineral deposits, spiritual fish, and exotic treasures abounded, with celestial treasures occasionally emerging from their depths.

Any single immortal clan that monopolized it would find the resources produced sufficient to sustain the cultivation of several dozen immortals.

The Chen Clan only controlled a mere 10 percent of it, and even that was just surface-level development. Yet the resources they obtained each year were already considerable, a testament to the sheer abundance of this sea region.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but remark, "When Patriarch Crimson Dragon broke through to the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm, the Crimson Dragon Sea contributed at least 40 percent of his success."

Hearing this, they were all utterly captivated.

Qing Ji stared at the map for a long while, her expression finally settling into grim solemnity as she declared, "Ever since the fall of the Crimson Dragon Ancestor in those bygone years, the 3 races—humans, demons, and celestials—have coveted the Heavenly Sand Islands with unbridled ambition."

"Yet 1 100 1000 years have passed, and no 1 has ever been able to claim it exclusively. Are we truly confident we can seize it?"

Eldrin did not answer immediately. Instead, he channeled his magic power to illuminate the islands of the Tiansha Archipelago, faintly forming a sky-obscuring array.

Watching the familiar formation gradually take shape, everyone's expressions shifted slightly.

The Palace Lord of Drifting Snow took a deep breath, unable to contain her astonishment as she exclaimed, "You intend to deploy the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation?"

"Hmm."

Eldrin nodded slightly and said, "Using the Mysterious Yin Cassia and the Solar Fire Tangerine as foundations, we shall construct 2 superior immortal islands at the heart of the Heavenly Sand Archipelago to serve as the solar and lunar focal points of the formation."

"With Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location), Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Island, and this place as foundations—these shall form the 3 celestial pivots of the formation."

Once successful, it would undoubtedly enable the formation of the supreme immortal array—Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen (Immortal Array).

Upon hearing this, everyone revealed looks of astonishment.

In the past, the Purple Realm's Zhou Tian Star Formation, though merely at the threshold of the Immortal rank, already possessed the power to contend with divine immortals.

Now, Eldrin had laid down a formation with 5 immortal islands. Once completed, its power would surely shake heaven and earth. Even a half-step Earth Immortal would likely lose half their life, and it could even hold off a true Earth Immortal Ancestor for a time.

After the initial surprise, everyone shook their heads once more.

The Black Tortoise Patriarch let out a bitter laugh and said helplessly, "Large-scale supreme-grade immortal formations are exceedingly difficult to set up, let alone whether we could even succeed in deploying 1."

"Even if it could be deployed, unleashing its full power would require establishing formation anchors across 3,000,000 islands."

"With such a massive scale of construction, even the power of an entire Earth Immortal blessed realm would require over 10 1000 years to complete this formation."

"Although the Chen Clan had already earned the qualification to be called an upper-tier immortal family, their numbers were ultimately too few. I'm afraid it would take tens of thousands of years of work to complete this arrangement."

"I understand."

Eldrin nodded, yet his gaze remained fixed on the map as he remarked, "These auxiliary array eyes can be dealt with gradually. As long as we seize a few crucial ones, it should suffice to unleash 50 percent of the immortal array’s power."

At this point, Eldrin dispersed the starlight above the archipelago and ignited 5 new beams of radiance.

Everyone looked up and saw that the 5 streaks of starlight were respectively: Greenridge Isle, the core Sun-Moon Twin Isles, Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Isle, and 1 nameless island.

"The Sun-Moon Twin Islands—we can cultivate them using the Mystic Yin Cassia and the Solar Fire Tangerine."

Greenridge Isle, as the Ziwei Enclosure, was an immortal isle of the Crimson Flame Qi lineage. It could be seized to serve as the primary star of the Celestial Market Enclosure.

"The final nameless isle…"

Eldrin’s expression turned contemplative for a moment before he spoke, “I will transplant the 8 Trimessence Treasure Tree and cultivate a Celestial-grade Spirit Island to serve as the primary star of the Great Empyreal Zenith.”

Hearing this, Lyra nodded and said, "The Cosmic Star Formation can draw upon the light of the 9 heavens' stars, which also benefits the advancement of the Starlight Glazed Realm."

"Precisely so."

Eldrin nodded. Since Lyra had also agreed to intervene, the matter was thus settled.

At this thought, Eldrin cast his gaze toward the Crimson Flame Qi Island on the map and remarked with a light laugh:

"The contest for the title of Crimson Dragon Sea's master is 1 from which the Divine Condor Clan of Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) ought to be eliminated."

As the words fell, Eldrin waved his sleeve. Upon the Crimson Flame Qi island, the banner representing the Crimson Flame Qi Divine Eagle Clan was erased, replaced by the emblem of the Chen Immortal Clan.
