Chapter 1154. Celestial Rarity, the 1 True Treasure

What Are Celestial Artifacts?

So-called Heavenly Oddities are, in fact, much like Quasi-Immortal Treasures—both are forged from flawed immortal materials.

However, there existed a vast distinction between the 2—a difference that might lie in the materials used, or perhaps in the 1 who forged the treasure.

Ordinary quasi-immortal artifacts in the Violet Realm are typically forged by ascended immortals before their ascension. However, due to the inferior craftsmanship of these predecessors, the power of their quasi-immortal treasures falls far short of true immortal artifacts.

The might of these near-immortal treasures is roughly equivalent to 30 percent of true immortal artifacts, yet when fully unleashed, they fall far short of genuine immortal treasures.

However, Eldrin's current level of artifact forging had already reached the pinnacle of the Ascension Realm.

Even flawed immortal materials, when they fell into his hands, could be transformed from the mundane into the miraculous.

Like the Great White Geng Metal Sword Aura, originally a mere pure-yang rarity, Eldrin forcibly smelted 1 100 portions into a single crucible. After repeated refinement, its power even approached the realm of immortal treasures.

Whereas ordinary flawed immortal materials, once forged into treasures by Eldrin, would possess approximately 80 to 90 percent of the power of true immortal treasures.

The might of such a supreme treasure far surpassed that of near-immortal artifacts, already approaching the level of genuine celestial treasures.

It surpassed artifacts approaching the celestial realm, yet fell just short of true celestial treasures, thus earning the name Extraordinary Wonder from Beyond.

Strictly speaking, within the Violet Realm, there also existed heavenly treasures from beyond the mundane world.

Like the legendary Zhou Tian Star Formation of the Eastern Sea cultivation realm in ancient times, it could unleash power approaching that of an immortal, barely qualifying as a celestial-grade formation-type marvel.

At this moment, dozens of celestial treasures emerged into the world. Of the 30-6 Demigod Ancestors (Cultivation Realm), nearly every 1 managed to obtain 1, and uncontrollable ecstasy dawned upon their faces.

A few individuals had the misfortune of obtaining the near-immortal treasures that Eldrin had failed to refine, yet these artifacts still possessed 50 to 60 percent of a true immortal treasure's power. Though they could not rival the exotic wonders from beyond the heavens, they far surpassed ordinary near-immortal treasures.

"Immortal fate! A supreme immortal fate!"

The various quasi-immortals gasped in astonishment, their faces brimming with tears of profound gratitude.

After them, 3 1000 Primordial Spirit Dao Lords swarmed forth, their faces ecstatic as they charged toward the myriad spiritual treasures.

Upon the Treasure-Rock, aside from the various near-immortal treasures and Celestial Mansion rarities, there were also vast quantities of Pure Yang rarities.

Among these Pure Yang rarities, Pure Yang spirit treasures, Pure Yang divine pills, Pure Yang celestial tomes, Pure Yang immortal formations, Pure Yang treasure talismans, and more dazzled the eyes. Yet their grades varied greatly, and their values differed immensely.

The various Primordial Spirit Ancestors engaged in a frenzied scramble, each swiftly obtaining a share of the rare treasures.

Some of them had obtained satisfactory items and revealed expressions of ecstatic delight, while others had only managed to seize the lowest-value Lower-Grade Pure Yang Treasures, their faces etched with varying degrees of regret.

However, no matter what, after this distribution of treasures, every Divine Lord of the Violet Realm now possessed a Pure Yang wonder, finally freeing most Divine Lords from the awkward predicament of still using mere spirit treasures.

In addition to the Pure Yang Marvels, the treasures of subjugation and magical artifacts within the Fenbao were beyond count.

But lo, those treasures transformed into streaks of radiant light, soaring through the skies. Countless cultivators ascended into the air, chasing after the treasures in a frenzied pursuit.

The treasure distribution ended as swiftly as it had begun. When all was completely settled, a youth stepped before the Cliff of Bestowed Treasures.

The young man felt a tinge of regret. With merely Qi Refining cultivation, how could he possibly compete against those True Monarchs and Perfected Lords? Though countless treasures had emerged earlier, he hadn't managed to seize a single 1.

"Alas, it seems there truly is no share for me."

Gazing at the empty Treasure Rock, the young man let out a sigh, a trace of disappointment coloring his expression.

He shook his head and muttered with a bitter smile, "Indeed, the duration of the Immortal's 3 sermons would be enough for me to undergo 3 lifetimes and 7 reincarnations."

"The immortal legacy he left behind is only for those True Monarchs and Dao Lords to touch."

“我区区一个练气小修士，在他眼里怕是连蝼蚁都算不上，还奢求什么仙缘呢？”

The young man gave a helpless bitter smile, casting 1 last glance at the boulder before him. He couldn't help murmuring to himself, "The legendary Immortal's Treasure-Distributing Boulder is merely an ordinary stone after all."

"However, I, Chen Bufan, never return empty-handed from my endeavors. This time shall be no exception."

"Take it back home and use it as a cultivation platform."

As the words fell, the young man attempted to lift the massive stone.

Yet unexpectedly, as he moved it, the massive stone began to emit faint wisps of Primordial Chaos energy.

As wisp after wisp of Primordial Chaos Qi unfurled, the massive stone ultimately transformed into a resplendent treasure cauldron that soared into the youth's dantian.

"This is..."

The young man could hardly believe his eyes, a flicker of astonishment crossing his face.

It was only then that he discovered a treasure cauldron, radiating 5-colored primordial chaos light, had appeared within his sea of consciousness.

"Primal Chaos Cauldron."

The young man’s heart swelled with overwhelming excitement, a trace of wild joy flickering across his face before he swiftly suppressed it. With an unreadable expression, he quietly made his way down the mountain.

Meanwhile, within the Flaming Prison of Blazing Fire, Eldrin (Person Name) suddenly opened his eyes.

He was both astonished and somewhat resigned as he chuckled, "30-6 Half-Immortals and 3,000 Dao Lords were all so blinded by treasure that they allowed the true artifact to fall into the hands of a mere Qi Refining boy."

"Oh?"

Across from him, the Elder Uncle sat facing him. Hearing his sudden query, the old man couldn't help but ask curiously, "What has happened?"

"I leave behind a Hunyuan Cauldron, the sole celestial treasure among all artifacts. This treasure can aid cultivators in solidifying their foundations. Should a demi-immortal obtain it, ascension would be as certain as sunrise."

"Who would have thought they all missed it, and it was obtained by a minor cultivator."

At this point, Eldrin couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

He gazed in the direction of Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location) and finally advised, "Since he could obtain a true treasure, he must be blessed with great fortune. You should keep a discreet eye on him in the future, Elder Uncle."

Chen Changxuan nodded, stroking his beard as he remarked, "That lad is also a member of our Chen Clan. Naturally, this elder will keep an eye out for him."

"Then I can rest easy."

Eldrin nodded and said no more.

With those words spoken, the 2 fell into silence once more. Eldrin (Person Name) pondered for a moment before finally sighing and saying, "Perhaps back then, I should never have let you walk this path."

At this point, Eldrin couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Changxuan's divine soul was anchored within this inferno of flames. Though he had attained the Half-Immortal Dao Fruit, he remained imprisoned here.

Now, if Chen Changxuan were to leave the Sea of Blazing Prison Flames, the foundation of his lifelong cultivation would dissipate, causing him to fall back to the Nascent Soul Realm. He would likely perish on the spot.

Thus, even if Eldrin (Person Name) could now ascend to the immortal realm with others, he had absolutely no means to bring the old grand-uncle along.

Chen Changxuan, however, was quite at peace with it. A faint smile graced his lips as he stroked his long beard. "Had I not anchored my soul within the Blazing Prison of Infernal Flames, this old bones would have turned to dust over 10 1000 years ago. How could I possibly have lived to see this day?"

"With over 20,000 years of lifespan remaining, I am already content."

"Alas."

Eldrin (Person Name) let out a soft sigh, knowing full well that Chen Changxuan (Person Name) spoke the truth.

Dropping the matter, Eldrin retrieved 2 treasure boxes from his sleeve—1 containing 10 sticks of Incense Fire Heavenly Silver and the other holding 10 Dragon-Phoenix Dao-Forging Pills.

He handed all the treasures to Chen Changxuan and said, "These treasures shall serve as the foundation I leave for our clan. Should any Half-Immortal seek to breach the Ascension Realm, Eldest Uncle may bestow them as you deem fit."
