Chapter 1164 World Advancement, Virtue Clear Light

In that very instant, none of the immortals held back, each pouring their full strength into resisting the Starry Sky Ancient Beast.

But then, the Eastern Emperor brought forth the Eastern Emperor Bell, unleashing its peerless might to suppress the foe. Meanwhile, the Primordial Ice Silkworm cast out a Frostsoul Immortal Net—a treasure that turned out to be a top-grade immortal artifact.

Kael was equally formidable, as 3 blossoms bloomed above his head, giving way to 3 peerless incarnations.

The first figure, clad in black robes with flowing dark hair, was a Demon Path Saint Lord of awe-inspiring presence. The second silhouette was a Daoist True Lord whose ethereal demeanor embodied celestial grace. The third held prayer beads, his head radiant with golden light—he was none other than a Buddha.

The other immortals exchanged a glance, their hearts trembling as they realized these 3 avatars all possessed cultivation at the Ascension Realm.

With a single breath, he manifested as a Buddha, a True Immortal, and a Demon Lord—1 man alone rivaled 4 peerless celestials.

"His methods are far too astonishing. He's likely even stronger than an ordinary Fourth-Level Ascendant."

Sensing Eldrin’s world-shaking methods, the master of the Dao Palace could not help but exclaim in admiration.

The combat prowess displayed by Donghuang, Kael (Person Name), and the Primordial Ice Silkworm was exceptionally formidable, each of them having touched the threshold of the mid-stage Ascension Realm.

With the 3 of them blocking the front, the other 6 immortals also took action 1 after another.

Lin Tianqi had cultivated the immortal physique ‘Peerless Sword Bone’, becoming 1 with the principles of the sword path. His killing power had astonishingly approached the level of the middle stage of Ascendant Immortal realm.

The Demon Saint Kunpeng dominated with his immortal physique, and with the Dao Fruit's empowerment, his speed reached the ultimate extreme—enough to shake the primordial chaos beast.

The Lord of the Dao Palace then activated an array diagram, leveraging the formation's power to disperse the primordial force of the ancient beast.

The remaining 3—the Daoist Kunxuan, the Thunder Tribulation Deity, and the Lord of the Starry Sky Palace—possessed mediocre foundations and had only recently broken through to the Ascension Realm. Their combat prowess ranked among the lowest even within the Ascended.

They could not subdue the Starry Sky Ancient Beast, yet they joined forces to activate the Crimson Plume Immortal Ark, confronting the creature head-on.

Joining forces in this manner, they finally managed to hold off that Starry Sky Ancient Beast.

Alas, the cultivators' cultivation bases still fell short, making it difficult to inflict fatal wounds upon the Starry Sky Ancient Beast. They could only manage to block its assault on the Violet Realm.

Meanwhile, Eldrin merged with his sword, soaring into the heavens astride the Celestial Li Swords. He glided along the Starry Sky Ancient Beast’s meridians until, unknowingly, he arrived at a place where golden blood flowed.

These golden blood droplets brimmed with incomparably vigorous vitality, yet also contained an overwhelmingly domineering energy.

Even the Heavenly Li Twin Swords felt immense pressure before this primordial blood, unable to completely vaporize and refine it.

"What domineering true blood."

"This is the place."

Sensing the abnormality of this true blood, Eldrin understood that this must be the location of the Starry Sky Ancient Beast's heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, he did not hesitate to once again expend a massive amount of immortal essence, compelling the Sky-Sundering Twin Swords to merge once more.

A blazing sword light erupted, instantly weaving through the air as it cleaved toward the ancient beast’s core.

"Roar—"

In that instant, an indescribable roar reverberated through the boundless starry sky.

The starry sky ancient beast tumbled and circled through the void, ultimately sinking into complete stillness.

Dead!

A surge of elation swept through the crowd as a blinding white sword radiance erupted from within the Starry Sky Ancient Beast, soaring into the heavens before materializing into a snow-robed figure.

Eldrin held the heart of the primordial chaos beast, his expression serene as he surveyed his surroundings. In a flash, he transformed into a streak of light that tore through the void, striking toward the starry sky beast spanning 8 million li.

Even the starry sky ancient beast spanning tens of millions of miles could be slain by Eldrin, let alone this colossal creature spanning 8 million miles—it was likewise fated to meet its doom.

These ancient beasts spanning 8 million li were far inferior to the former, their physical forms unable to withstand the sharpness of the Heaven-Sundering Twin Swords.

But then Eldrin (Person Name) summoned the Celestial Li Swords, slashing forth. In but a short while, his foe was grievously wounded. Then, harnessing the combined might of the Celestial Li Union, he suppressed and annihilated the enemy beyond the Violet Boundary.

"It's over!"

The only 2 Starry Sky Ancient Beasts of the celestial rank were slain. The remaining ancient beasts, no matter how powerful, were merely below the celestial rank. The half-immortals of the Violet Realm could easily cleanse them, making it no significant trouble.

Not to mention that Zi Jiu Xian (Person Name) had already freed her hands and began to slay these ancient beasts, swiftly exterminating them all.

"Boom!"

Heaven and earth roared, the vast land stretching endlessly.

Amidst the roaring echoes, the Violet Realm expanded ever more vast.

Across the 8 Desolates of this world, vast stretches of primordial land evolved from the void, spanning countless hundreds of millions of miles.

"Today's Purple Realm is likely nearly half the size of the Sky Sand Archipelago."

Eldrin stood at the edge of the world, gazing at the ever-expanding Violet Realm as a thought flickered through his mind.

No 1 knew how much time had passed before the celestial and earthly ascension gradually settled.

From the boundless heavens above, thousands of rays of virtue suddenly descended, scattering across various regions of the Violet Realm.

"Is this... the Light of Merit?"

Eldrin murmured, a faint smile glimmering in his eyes.

Merit is truly extraordinary; every being between heaven and earth carries some measure of merit or karmic obstacles within them.

However, nearly all individuals possessed virtue and karma so faint they were nearly invisible. Only a rare few could condense their virtue into a tangible form.

And such an existence must be 1 who has performed great meritorious deeds for heaven and earth.

This time, the Purple Realm's ascension succeeded, its rank now vastly different—it could already bestow the Light of Merit upon all living beings.

Those who obtained virtue were almost exclusively individuals who had made significant contributions to the Violet Realm, yet the amount of Virtuous Light they received varied tremendously.

Those Dao Lords who had received only a sliver of merit light found it nearly imperceptible once it merged with their bodies.

Should anyone slay them, it would diminish their own virtue and amplify their karmic burden, inevitably drawing the disdain of the Violet Realm's will of heaven. Henceforth, their cultivation would advance only with immense difficulty, each step a struggle.

Immortal Zi Jiu not only held off the immortal-ranked Primal Chaos Ancient Beast, but also contributed to the advancement of the Purple Realm. The share of virtue light she received was a 1000 times greater than that of the Nascent Soul Dao Lords.

The 9 of them, all immortals, shared approximately 10 percent of the Merit Light, with each receiving over 3,000 units of Heaven and Earth Merit.

With 3 1000 merit points protecting them, these will prove immensely valuable when they ascend to the immortal realm in the future.

Even immortals in the celestial realm generally refrain from delivering fatal blows to those bearing immense virtue, lest they tarnish their own accumulated merits.

And Eldrin (Person Name) received even more. He alone obtained 80 percent of the merit, amassing a full 300,000 units of merit power.

The virtue converged behind Eldrin’s head, ultimately transforming into 3 halos of virtuous light encircling him.

Merit Radiance.

Noticing the halo of virtuous light shimmering behind his head, Eldrin couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.

It requires 100,000 units of merit power to condense a single stream of meritorious light, whose wondrous effects can truly be described as extraordinary.

According to Eldrin, for 1 who possesses the Radiance of Virtuous Merit, each strand of this radiance can offset a single great tribulation spanning 1,000,000 years.

Not only that, but now blessed with the protective aura of virtue, even an Earth Immortal Patriarch would shake their head at the sight of him and refrain from resorting to lethal measures unless absolutely necessary.
