Chapter 1163. The Birth of Donghuang

Finding themselves unable to subdue these ant-like cultivators from the Violet Realm, the Starry Sky Ancient Beasts began charging toward the Violet Realm, completely disregarding their attacks.

The leading Ancient Beast King completely disregarded Violet 7 Immortal's obstruction and, with unbridled madness, actually charged toward the Violet Realm.

"Boom!"

In an instant, heaven and earth trembled.

Under the impact of the Starry Sky Ancient Beast, the entire Violet Realm trembled faintly. Within the vast expanse of the Violet Realm, mountains and rivers quaked violently as a terrifyingly immense earthquake shook the land.

Across the entire Violet Realm, violent tsunamis raged, and even the continental plates shifted dramatically.

Countless spiritual mountains and blessed isles were utterly destroyed in an instant, and who could know how many immortal clans were annihilated in the blink of an eye.

In the East Sea region, which suffered the most severe blows, an unprecedented tsunami occurred.

A tsunami of unfathomable height—perhaps thousands of miles tall—swept across the vast Eastern Sea. Wherever it passed, all things were utterly annihilated. Only immortal islands of fourth rank or higher, shielded by their mountain-protecting arrays, managed to barely survive this cataclysm.

"Damn it!"

Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse, Eldrin felt his heart sink.

If this Starry Sky Ancient Beast were allowed to rampage unchecked, it would likely tear a gaping hole through the Violet Realm. When that time came, the world’s ascension would surely end in utter failure.

At this thought, Eldrin flicked his sleeve and summoned a crimson immortal light, which landed in Kael's palm.

"This is the Crimson Plume Immortal Ark. You must join forces to activate this vessel and hold firm against the assault of this primordial starry beast."

Violet 7 Immortal saw this and understood the gravity of the situation.

They boarded the immortal vessel 1 after another and began activating the formations aboard the Crimson Plume Immortal Ark to confront the powerful ancient beast.

At the same time, Eldrin no longer cared about depleting his spiritual energy and immediately began to unleash his full power.

With a flick of his sleeve, he summoned the Crimson Plume 7 Immortals Sword (Magic Treasure), transforming it into a sword array that enveloped the vast starry sky, shielding the Violet Realm from the impact of this primordial supreme beast.

Then he activated the Yin-Yang Dual Polarity Pearl, transforming it into a beam of Immortal Light of Dual Polarities that descended.

With Eldrin's (Person Name) current cultivation level, he couldn't fully unleash the complete power of the Yin-Yang Polarization Pearl. Yet, as he activated these 2 supreme-grade immortal treasures now, they still manifested incomparable force.

Behold, the twin poles of Yin and Yang descended from the void, tearing a fathomless wound through the Void Ancient Beast’s very core.

"Hah—"

After that strike, Eldrin's face paled slightly, yet he let out a faint sigh of relief.

The Yin-Yang Dual Polarity Beads were not his Natal Immortal Treasure, and activating them consumed an immense amount of spiritual power.

Even with Eldrin's current cultivation base, simultaneously activating 2 supreme-grade immortal treasures was an immense strain. This single strike had depleted over 90 percent of the mana within him.

However, despite paying such a tremendous price, Eldrin (Person Name) was utterly satisfied.

Eldrin drew upon the spiritual power from his innate Green Lotus Throne, then instantly merged with the Twin Celestial Parting Swords. Transforming into a blinding sword radiance, he followed the trajectory of the massive wound and pierced directly into the starry ancient beast’s meridian channels.

The immortal sword pierced into its meridians. The ancient star beast roared and thrashed, its power sufficient to shatter heavens and obliterate earth. Yet against the celestial blade now drilling through its inner channels, it found itself utterly helpless.

It could only stir the vast and mighty ancient beast's true blood, seeking to refine Eldrin within its own body.

Yet Eldrin (Person Name) merged his very being with the sword, his incandescent blade unstoppable. Bolstered by his Lifebound Lotus Throne, an endless stream of immortal energy continuously empowered the divine sword. Everything in its path was utterly vaporized.

He intended to follow the ancient beast's meridians straight to its heart, aiming to strike it dead with a single blow.

However, this ancient beast's true blood was nearly boundless. Even if Eldrin wished to follow its meridians straight to the heart, it would still require no small amount of time.

"Boom!"

Heaven and earth roared, mountains and rivers quaked.

Beyond the vast starry sky, the great battle raged on.

The colossal starry sky beast, spanning 8 million li, was overwhelmingly immense. Its strength seemed inexhaustible, crashing forth like an ancient primordial star. Even the Scarlet Plume Immortal Ark was somewhat unable to withstand the impact.

The Violet Realm trembled violently, its condition appearing to grow increasingly dire.

Even the power of the Violet 7 Immortals could not withstand its impact. I fear we can no longer restrain its madness. Before Eldrin could free his hands to intervene, the Violet Realm’s ascension would likely be forcibly interrupted.

Meanwhile, within the Violet Realm, a world-shaking spectacle was also unfolding.

But lo, upon that ancient star-forged cauldron, an unending stream of liquid spiritual energy cascaded like a celestial river upturned, splitting into twin currents the moment it touched the Violet Realm.

1 portion fell into the Taihan Ice Pond deep within the Arctic Ice Plains, while the other plunged into the depths of the Blazing Inferno within the Eastern Wastelands.

No 1 knew how long the near-liquid torrent of boundless spiritual energy had been pouring in, but at last, a subtle transformation began to stir within these 2 celestial realms.

But within the fiery sea of the infernal prison, a golden figure opened his eyes and suddenly took a step, ascending to the heavens.

Within the Extreme Cold Ice Pool, the Primordial Ice Silkworm let out a faint sigh, ultimately transforming into a peerlessly elegant figure that ascended to the heavens.

"Kill—"

Dong Huang (Person Name) was the first to strike, sweeping forth with unparalleled might.

His form was immeasurably majestic, manifesting the Indestructible Golden Body from the very outset. Empowered by the Laws of the Sun and the Dao Fruit of Divinity, his mere movement unleashed earth-shattering, heaven-shaking power.

What a blow it was! His strike seemed capable of shattering eternal stars, carrying the force of an apocalypse as it slammed into the ancient cosmic beast’s body, jolting it violently.

"Hiss!"

At this moment, even Ziqi Xian's pupils contracted slightly.

Kunxuan Daozun’s expression shifted dramatically, and he could not help but exclaim in shock, “It’s Donghuang! He’s still alive?”

Lin Tianqi’s expression grew even graver, his eyes profoundly solemn as he stated, “His physical body possesses boundless power, surpassing even Star-Ancient Beasts of the same realm. I fear it rivals that of a humanoid Chaos Ancient Beast.”

Indestructible Golden Body, Solar Law, Divine Dao Fruit.

Kael murmured under his breath, unable to suppress his awe, "The Eastern Sovereign has forged the foundation of a Great Luo. His power rivals mine in every aspect—I fear he may already stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Primordial Divinities."

The master of the Dao Palace spoke, his composure tinged with a trace of astonishment.

The transformation of the Solar Sovereign’s Indestructible Body into the Golden Indestructible Body took him completely by surprise. After all, this celestial physique was among the most supreme of its kind—1 of the mightiest immortal constitutions to be found across the entire Immortal Realm.

Dong Huang had actually cultivated 3 Dao Fruits and even achieved the Indestructible Golden Body. His future accomplishments were likely to be limitless.

"Whoosh—"

Just then, a ray of Glacial Soul Light (Divine Ability) flashed across the void,

The peerlessly elegant figure stepped forward, gazing calmly at the Void Ancient Beast as he spoke with serene composure, "Everyone, let us not linger in stunned silence any longer."

"If the 9 of us Immortals join forces yet still fail to hold back a single Astral Ancient Beast, we might as well retreat and recommence our cultivation."

Esteemed Elder of the Primordial Ice Silkworm.

The master of the Dao Palace’s eyes flickered slightly before he nodded and said, "With the 9 of us joining forces, even if we cannot completely suppress it, we will undoubtedly be able to hold it at bay."

As the words fell, the Master of the Dao Palace activated his immortal treasure, pressing down toward the ancient beast.

The other 8 immortals moved with equal swiftness, each employing their own methods to intercept the sky-obscuring ancient beast.

Chapter 1 The scorching sun blazed like fire, yet the training grounds of the Chen Clan bustled with activity. Dozens of young clansmen, drenched in sweat, practiced their sword techniques under the guidance of their elders. "Focus your mind and unite your will with your sword!" an elder in blue robes shouted sternly. "The path of cultivation demands unwavering dedication!" Among the trainees, a youth around 15 or 16 years old stood out. His movements were fluid and precise, each sword stroke carrying a faint, sharp aura. This was Chen Nianzhi, the most talented junior of the Chen Clan in a century. "Big Brother Nianzhi is truly remarkable," a girl around 14 or 15 whispered to her companion, her eyes filled with admiration. "They say he's already reached the 7th level of Qi Refinement." Her friend nodded in agreement. "At this rate, he'll surely establish his Foundation before reaching 20." As the sun began to set, the day's training concluded. Chen Nianzhi wiped the sweat from his brow and was about to leave when the elder in blue approached him. "Nianzhi, the Patriarch wishes to see you." Chen Nianzhi nodded respectfully. "Understood, Third Elder." He made his way toward the main hall, his heart filled with anticipation. The Patriarch rarely summoned juniors personally—this likely meant an important assignment. The main hall was grand and solemn. Seated at the highest position was Chen Changxuan, the Patriarch of the Chen Clan. Though his hair was streaked with white, his eyes shone with a piercing light. "Nianzhi pays respects to the Patriarch," Chen Nianzhi said, bowing respectfully. Chen Changxuan smiled faintly. "Rise. Your progress in cultivation has been impressive." "Thank you for your praise, Patriarch." "The reason I called you here today," Chen Changxuan said, his expression turning serious, "is to assign you a task." He produced a jade slip from his sleeve. "The Zhang Clan of East Floria has discovered a new spirit stone vein. They've invited our Chen Clan to jointly explore it. I want you to lead the team." Chen Nianzhi's heart stirred. A spirit stone vein! This concerned the vital interests of the clan. For the Patriarch to assign him such an important mission showed great trust in his abilities. "The Zhang Clan has always been friendly with us," Chen Changxuan continued. "But remember, when interests are at stake, even the closest allies may turn against each other. You must remain vigilant." "Your disciple understands." Chen Changxuan nodded with satisfaction. "Take 3 elders and 10 clansmen with you. Also..." He paused, then took out a small, azure-colored sword from his storage pouch. "Take this Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure). Consider it a reward for your diligent cultivation." Chen Nianzhi's eyes lit up. A magic treasure! And a top-grade 1 at that. With this, his combat power would increase significantly. "Thank you for the reward, Patriarch! I will not disappoint your expectations!" After leaving the main hall, Chen Nianzhi immediately began preparing for the journey. According to the jade slip, the spirit stone vein was located in the Azure Python Mountains, a journey of over 10 days. 3 days later, the Chen Clan's team set out. Besides Chen Nianzhi, the group included Elders Chen Changhai, Chen Changyue, and Chen Changming, all at the Foundation Establishment realm, along with 10 Qi Refinement clansmen. The Azure Python Mountains stretched for thousands of miles, filled with dangerous peaks and dense forests. Ferocious beasts and demonic creatures lurked within, making it perilous for ordinary people. But for cultivators, such places often held great opportunities. After 10 days of travel, the group finally arrived at their destination—a valley shrouded in mist. "We're here," Elder Chen Changhai said, looking at the mist-covered valley with a serious expression. "Be careful, everyone. We don't know what dangers might be hidden in this mist." Chen Nianzhi nodded, channeling his magic power into the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure). The sword emitted a faint, azure glow, ready to strike at any moment. Just as they were about to enter the valley, a sharp, piercing laugh suddenly echoed from behind them. "Well, well, if it isn't the Chen Clan! What a coincidence!" Chen Nianzhi's expression changed. He turned to see a group of people in black robes approaching, their leader a sinister-looking middle-aged man. "Zhao Wuji!" Chen Changhai's face darkened. "What are you doing here?" Zhao Wuji, an elder of the Zhao Clan—a rival of the Chen Clan—smiled coldly. "The Azure Python Mountains don't belong to your Chen Clan. Why can't we be here?" His gaze then fell on Chen Nianzhi, his eyes flashing with a hint of murderous intent. "So this is that prodigy of your Chen Clan? What a pity... today will be the day he meets his end!" Before he finished speaking, Zhao Wuji suddenly attacked. A black flying sword shot toward Chen Nianzhi like a venomous snake! "Watch out!" Chen Changhai shouted, immediately activating his own magic treasure to block. But Zhao Wuji had clearly planned this ambush. Several Foundation Establishment experts from the Zhao Clan simultaneously attacked, trapping the Chen Clan members. Faced with the sudden assault, Chen Nianzhi felt a surge of anger. The Zhao and Chen Clans had been enemies for generations, but he never expected them to be so brazen as to ambush them here! "Since you seek death, I'll grant your wish!" Chen Nianzhi shouted, fully activating the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure). The azure sword light erupted, instantly enveloping Zhao Wuji's black flying sword. Clang! With a crisp sound, the black flying sword was cut in half! "How is this possible?" Zhao Wuji's face showed shock. "That's a medium-grade magic treasure!" Chen Nianzhi didn't give him time to react. The sword light continued its momentum, piercing straight toward Zhao Wuji's throat! "Arrogant!" A Foundation Establishment expert from the Zhao Clan rushed to intercept, but was blocked by Elder Chen Changyue. In that moment of delay, the azure sword light had already reached Zhao Wuji! Pfft! A faint sound echoed as the sword light pierced Zhao Wuji's throat. His eyes widened in disbelief, but he could no longer utter a word. A Foundation Establishment expert had fallen just like that! The remaining Zhao Clan members were terrified. They never expected Chen Nianzhi to be so powerful, able to kill a Foundation Establishment expert in a single strike! "Retreat!" someone shouted, and the Zhao Clan members immediately fled in panic. "Should we pursue?" Chen Changhai asked. Chen Nianzhi shook his head. "No need. Our priority is the spirit stone vein." He looked toward the mist-shrouded valley, a faint smile tugging at his lips. The path of cultivation was long and arduous, but with his companions and the opportunities ahead, he was confident he could reach the pinnacle. Little did he know that this was only the beginning of his journey. Greater challenges and adventures awaited him on the path ahead.

Chapter 1,163: The Emergence of Donghuang The heavens trembled as primordial qi swirled into a colossal vortex above the 9 Provinces. Mountains shook and rivers reversed their flow, while spiritual energy gathered toward the Eastern Wastelands with unprecedented intensity. All cultivators across the realm sensed the monumental shift—an ancient power was awakening. Deep within the Sealed Demon Abyss, a stone coffin engraved with dragon patterns began cracking open. Golden light erupted through the fissures, illuminating the eternal darkness that had persisted for millennia. A majestic voice echoed from within, resonating across time itself: "The era of chaos returns. This sovereign shall reclaim what is rightfully mine." On the Broken Soul Cliff, Lin Ming (Person Name) abruptly opened his eyes, his cultivation trembling in response to the overwhelming pressure. The Jade Purity Sword Technique (Cultivation Method) circulating within him faltered as he stared toward the eastern horizon. "After 90 1000 years... the legendary Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness has awakened," he whispered, his fingers tightening around the hilt of the Frostbite Sword (Magic Treasure). Meanwhile, at the Radiant Summit Sect, elders exchanged grave looks. The celestial phenomenon indicated only 1 possibility—the prophesied era of upheaval had begun. The Grand Elder declared in a solemn tone, "Dispatch our swiftest messengers. All disciples must return to the sect immediately. The Eastern Emperor's revival will reshape the balance of power throughout the cultivation world." Countless hidden experts emerged from secluded meditation, their auras piercing the sky like unsheathed blades. For thousands of years, they had awaited this moment—the return of the primordial sovereign who once unified all realms under a single mandate.
