Chapter 1180. Slaying All Enemies, Old Ruins Yin Lord

Eldrin remained unmoved, his expression icy as he activated the Primordial Chaos Soldier-Forcing Art.

"Clang—"

A deafening roar erupted as countless streams of primordial chaos energy converged in an instant, coalescing into a formidable long spear that shot forth. With overwhelming force, it struck the treasure seal, sending it flying sideways through the air.

Right after, Eldrin (Person Name) struck again, manifesting a Primordial Chaos Overlord Blade that soared into the air and cleaved the unprepared Netherbone Monarch of Violet Abyss in 2.

This Lord of the Violet Abyss merely possessed the cultivation of a seventh-rank Ghost Immortal, his power far inferior to that of a seventh-rank Ascendant Immortal. Struck by this blow, his primordial spirit was instantly annihilated on the spot.

"No, Ziming!"

Witnessing the fall of Violet Nether Lord, the Amethyst Radiance Deity let out a cry of anguish, his face etched with disbelief.

He frantically activated the Violet Firmament Lightning Tribulation Tower and the Violet Firmament Lightning Flash Sword to fend off the Sky-Severing Twin Swords, while simultaneously summoning a world-shaking thunderbolt that crashed down with devastating force.

That lightning radiance was blindingly immense, instantly transforming into a sea of countless thunderbolts that surged forth in a horizontal assault. Its supreme might pierced through the very foundations of the Netherworld Earth.

This was a celestial art of the Heaven-Towering grade, surpassing even Eldrin’s yet-unperfected Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder by a margin.

Yet even so, they could not harm Eldrin in the slightest.

Eldrin (Person Name) stood beneath the swirling Yin-Yang Polarization Pearl, his immortal essence draining rapidly. Yet so long as the pearl remained unbroken, no force in this world could truly defeat him.

Yet knowing this full well, the few of them still attacked Eldrin (Person Name) at any cost.

For they knew full well that once the immortal energy within Eldrin was depleted, the Yin-Yang Dual Polarity Pearl would collapse of its own accord.

This method might have been quite effective against an ordinary Ninth Level Ascension cultivator, but when used against Eldrin, it still fell somewhat short.

"Boom!"

Amidst a violent roar, Eldrin drew immortal energy from the Ren Water Azure Lotus Platform, replenishing his nearly depleted reserves within.

He warded off all spells with the Eldrin Earth Sovereign Bell, then struck again, manifesting the Primordial Chaos Army-Forging Art to slash toward his powerful foe.

This time his target was the Blood Dragon Yin Lord. This Yin Lord possessed extraordinary power; aside from the Crimson Dragon Pearl in her grasp, she also wielded a Dragon-Head Staff, both of which were top-tier Nether Ghost Treasures.

At this moment, Blood Dragon Yin Lord activated 2 supreme treasures, further augmented by the might of Ghost Immortal Dao Arts. Even when facing the 2 supreme treasures—Earthen Dominance Imperial Bell and Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void (Magic Treasure)—he showed not the slightest sign of falling into disadvantage.

However, as Eldrin now unleashed the Primordial Chaos Soldier-Forging Art to strike, the Blood Dragon Yin Lord’s face ultimately paled slightly.

Gritting her teeth fiercely, she shielded herself with the dragon-headed staff, actually holding her own against the Primordial Chaos Spear.

Yet even so, he was still far from being a match for Eldrin.

But then Eldrin once again manifested a divine weapon, transforming into a heavenly blade that cleaved down with immense force, actually splitting the Blood Dragon Yin Lord's dragon-headed staff clean in 2.

"Roar——"

In that fleeting moment between life and death, the Blood Dragon Yin Lord let out a furious roar and transformed into a crimson dragon that soared into the sky. Bathed in blood, he launched a desperate strike that shattered the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Blade.

Yet at that very instant, a Primordial Chaos Immortal Sword tore through the heavens and arrived. In a flash, it pierced through her glabella, extinguishing her primordial spirit.

"Mother—"

Witnessing the demise of Blood Dragon Yin Lord, Crimson Dragon Child let out a piercing roar as he recklessly charged forward in a desperate assault.

Given Eldrin's current level of power, how could he possibly fear Chi Longzi?

Even in life, he was no match for Eldrin (Person Name). Now, reduced to a mere ghost immortal, how could he possibly stand against Eldrin (Person Name)?

But then Eldrin took a single step forward, his Primordial Immortal Body erupting with resplendent immortal light. With just 1 palm strike, he sent the Crimson Dragon Master flying through the air, blood spraying from his lips.

With a single strike that severely wounded Elder Crimson Dragon, Eldrin (Person Name) did not pursue the attack, instead turning his gaze toward the Violet Radiance Divine Spirit.

At this moment, the Violet Radiance Divine Spirit had fled into the distance, only to find itself blocked by the very formation it had laid.

"Hahaha, the Netherworld Immortal Burial Array, the Immortal Burial Array..."

"To think that this formation would become my own final resting place."

The Amethyst Radiance Deity murmured to himself, a bitter smile of despair spreading across his face.

But with a single ring of a sword's cry, the Heaven-Sundering Twin Swords swept forth, their razor edge annihilating all in their path.

When all had settled into tranquility, Eldrin calmly stored away the Amethyst Radiance Thunder Calamity Pagoda and the Amethyst Radiance Lightning Blade before stepping before Master Scarlet Dragon with unruffled composure.

"Ha ha ha!"

Chilongzi (Person Name) let out a maniacal laugh, his expression bordering on delirium as he stared at Eldrin (Person Name). A bloodthirsty glint flashed in his pupils as he snarled, "The Abyss returns to the Abyss! You may have slain me, but you shall inevitably be bound by the calamity of death!"

"No 1 can save you!"

"Is that so?"

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured without changing his expression, "I told you, if I could kill you while you lived, I could slay you again after death."

With those final words, Eldrin swung his sword and severed Red Dragon Child's head, capturing a wisp of his remnant soul in his palm. "All you ever relied upon was nothing more than that Red Dragon."

"I shall spare a wisp of your remnant soul to witness whether he can slay me."

With a single battle sweeping away all foes, Eldrin simply cleared the battlefield before sending a message to Kael and Qing to handle the aftermath.

He did not return immediately, but continued deeper into the Netherworld until he unwittingly arrived before a towering ghost city.

Before the Netherdark City, 4 large characters were inscribed, naming it the Old Ruins Ghost City. Upon the city walls, a figure seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

There stood a figure clad in a scholar’s robe, holding a folding fan, seated calmly atop a pavilion. With a serene expression, he spoke, “You’ve come.”

Yin Lord of the Ancient Ruins.

Eldrin spoke softly, offering a slight bow in return.

The Nether Lord of the Ancient Ruins maintained a placid expression as he unhurriedly poured a cup of tea for Eldrin. "This is an ancient tea unique to my Ghost City of Ancient Ruins, Fellow Daoist. Please, have a taste."

Eldrin poured the tea but did not taste it, merely stating, "1 thing perplexes me. Since the City of Cyan Ghosts would seize your incense offerings, why did you not intervene in the previous battle?"

At this point, a trace of solemnity surfaced on Eldrin's face.

This Nether Lord of the Ancient Ruins was said to be a Half-Step Ghost Ancestor, whose power far surpassed that of ordinary ghost immortals. Had he intervened earlier, Eldrin might not have emerged victorious so effortlessly.

"Is that all?"

The Ancient Ruins Yin Sovereign smiled faintly, then spoke: "In this Vast Azure Immortal Domain, Yin Sovereigns and Ghost Immortals number over a million. Every 1 of them craves spiritual devotion. If we were to treat them all as irreconcilable enemies, how could we ever finish slaughtering them all?"

"That makes sense."

Eldrin took a delicate sip of the tea, then cupped his hands respectfully. "Regardless, I must express my gratitude for your decision not to intervene in that battle."

The Sovereign of the Ancient Ruins smiled faintly, casting but a glance at Eldrin before speaking, "You carry the Soul-Convergence Pearl with you. Is it because a departed soul dear to you has been grievously wounded, requiring spiritual reconstitution to reincarnate?"

Eldrin's gaze sharpened slightly, yet he still nodded and said, "That is indeed the case."

"That makes things much easier."

The Lord of the Ancient Ruins snapped his folding fan shut with a sharp flick, a smile playing on his lips. "Within my Ghost City of Ancient Ruins stands a Soul-Gathering Bell. Should you be willing to assist me with a certain matter, this Soul-Gathering Bell shall be made fully available for your use."
