Chapter 1207 : Aurora of Ascendant Refinement

Back when Eldrin Chen condensed his Great Encompassing Infant Soul, he successively cultivated four Divine Ability [supreme supernatural powers]: the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder, the Five-Colored Divine Light, the Great Deduction Polarity Stars Path, and the Great Five Elements Primordial One True Energy.

By now, with the exception of the Great Deduction Polarity Stars Path, the remaining three Divine Ability had all been refined by him to the Immortal-rank realm.

Having now broken through to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm and having obtained the Five-Colored Aurora [a rare spiritual essence formed from celestial auroras], Eldrin Chen wasted no time. He began to immerse himself in cultivation, focusing on refining this Five-Colored Aurora.

The Five-Colored Aurora originates from the five types of auroras that manifest above the Heavenly Vault [the highest, most ethereal layer of the heavens] within the Immortal Domain. Gathering them is an exceedingly arduous task.

This is because the auroras at the edge of the Heavenly Vault are diffuse and unconsolidated. To obtain a single complete strand of aurora, one must painstakingly collect countless individual rays of auroral light and condense them together—a process that is immensely time-consuming and laborious.

Generally speaking, even for an Immortal at the Ascendant Immortal Realm, condensing a single portion of Lower Grade Immortal Rank Five-Colored Aurora would require the dedication of one hundred thousand years.

There is, however, another way. Upon special famed mountains or Immortal Vein [spiritual energy ley lines of immortal grade], an entire auroral ribbon might descend, or even an auroral meteor shower might occur, where hundreds or thousands of auroral strands momentarily streak across the sky.

Yet such events represent rare Opportunity and Fortune [moments of serendipity and destiny]. They may not occur once in tens of thousands of years, and the opportunity itself is fleeting, gone in the blink of an eye.

Returning to the matter at hand, this Five-Colored Aurora dissipates upon contact with water and fades into nothingness when exposed to emptiness. The slightest mishap can cause it to vanish into the void, making its refinement no simple feat.

Eldrin Chen dared not be careless. He retrieved the five Immortal Crystal [highly purified spirit stones] that contained the Five-Colored Aurora and enveloped them with his Primordial One Limitless Dharma Power [his foundational, boundless cultivation energy].

His Primordial One Limitless Path Principles had reached the Sky-Touching Realm [the pinnacle stage of cultivation before attaining true immortality], so suppressing this Five-Colored Aurora [a chaotic and potent spiritual phenomenon born from the convergence of five elemental forces] was well within his capabilities.

After successfully suppressing the Five-Colored Aurora, Eldrin Chen began the meticulous process of absorbing and refining its essence. Time flowed by, slipping away unnoticed in this manner.

Thus, time hurried on, and in the blink of an eye, three thousand years had passed.

On this day, Eldrin Chen opened his eyes from deep meditation. Within his pupils, a flash of Five-Colored Immortal Light [a divine ability manifesting as a radiant light of five colors] instantly bloomed forth, only to vanish again in the next fleeting moment.

Upon the Immortal Embryo [the nascent, embryonic form of an immortal's true self, housed within the sea of consciousness] within his mind's sea, five dazzlingly brilliant chains of Path Principles [the fundamental laws and truths comprehended by a cultivator] coiled and spiraled. They ultimately coalesced into a single, profoundly mysterious and intricate pattern of Path Principles.

"Success!"

Sensing the radiant, flawless rune of his Innate Divine Ability [a supreme power born from a cultivator's very nature and comprehension] now etched upon the Immortal Embryo, Eldrin Chen slowly let out a breath. A smile of profound satisfaction graced his features.

Tens of thousands of years since his Ascension and Attainment of the Path [the critical breakthrough where a cultivator ascends to immortality and solidifies their foundational Path], his Innate Divine Ability had finally reached its grand completion.

"Even if it cannot yet rival a World-Opening Heavenly God Ability [a legendary divine power said to be capable of cleaving chaos and birthing new worlds], the gap is no longer vast."

Eldrin Chen murmured to himself, having roughly gauged the formidable power contained within this Five-Colored Divine Light.

Based on his estimation, the Five-Colored Divine Light at the Great Perfection Realm possessed roughly seventy to eighty percent of the power of a World-Opening Heavenly God Ability, its might far surpassing that of ordinary Divine Ability [a supreme supernatural power cultivated by immortals].

Most crucially, when personally channeled by Eldrin Chen, its power likely rivaled even that of a World-Opening Heavenly God Ability.

This was because the Five-Colored Divine Light was formed from the fusion of five divine lights. When Eldrin Chen propelled it with the Five Elements Primordial One Limitless Path Principles, the synergy was perfect, doubling its destructive force.

"With my Path Principles [comprehension of the fundamental laws of reality] at Great Perfection, my cultivation towering, my Divine Ability at Grand Completion, and coupled with my foundational strength..."

Eldrin Chen paused, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. "With my current power, even relying solely on this Five-Colored Aurora [a manifestation of the Five-Colored Divine Light], I am enough to sweep all before me. I could traverse the Ascendant Immortal Realm [the realm of immortals who have ascended beyond mortality] and find no worthy opponent."

A single, peerless technique could conquer the world.

Divine light-type Divine Ability were inherently specialized in countering all manner of protective auras and energies. This Five-Colored Divine Light could seize treasures of the Five Elements [the fundamental forces of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth], ranking it among the pinnacle even within divine light abilities.

Furthermore, such a Divine Ability could be gathered or dispersed at will. Not only was it extremely convenient to wield, but it was also exceedingly difficult for enemies to find a method to counter it.

Eldrin Chen felt immense confidence. With this ultimate trump card in hand, even if the Crimson Dragon Patriarch were to return from the dead, wielding the Crimson Dragon Sky-Scorching Sword and clad in the Crimson Flame Golden Scale Armor [an enchanted artifact used by cultivators], he would assuredly be no match for him.

"It is time to leave seclusion."

Having cultivated a supreme Great God Ability, Eldrin Chen forcibly suppressed the wild joy surging within his heart.

Emerging from his secluded cultivation, he discovered that Exquisite Jiang was in deep meditation within the Stellar Glazed Boundary, seemingly consolidating her newly advanced cultivation base.

"Congratulations, my lady, on your breakthrough to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm."

Witnessing Exquisite Jiang's breakthrough, a smile naturally spread across Eldrin Chen's face. Within the Chen Immortal Clan, apart from himself, the one with the most astonishing natural talent was undoubtedly Exquisite Jiang.

Over these past years, while Eldrin Chen's cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, Exquisite Jiang's progress was by no means slow. During his period of seclusion, she had successfully broken through to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm.

However, her current breakthrough relied solely on the Great Completion of her Supreme Lunar Immortal Body; her comprehension of Path Principles and the cultivation of her Path Fruit had not yet reached the Heaven-Touching level.

In comparison, Eldrin Chen had not only achieved Great Completion of his Primordial One Indestructibility Body, but his Five Elements Primordial One Path Principles had also reached the Heaven-Touching stage, and he had broken through to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm. His overall progress had thus surpassed Exquisite Jiang by a noticeable margin.

Even so, to break through to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm within a mere few tens of thousands of years was a testament to first-rate, peerless talent.

Following this breakthrough, Exquisite Jiang's Immortal Essence [the foundational energy of an immortal] surged by fifty percent, becoming far more profound than that of an ordinary Ascendant Immortal 9th Tier. From now on, wielding a Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure should not be overly taxing for her.

"This breakthrough was within expectations all along."

Hearing Eldrin Chen's congratulations, Exquisite Jiang offered a faint smile and spoke, "Sister Verdant Consort is also in seclusion. It seems she is about to make a breakthrough as well."

Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod. Both he and Exquisite Jiang possessed Five Spiritual Roots [a supreme spiritual foundation allowing for rapid cultivation progress], enabling their swift advancement to the Ascendant Immortal 7th Tier. Verdant Consort, being an Immortal with only Three Spiritual Roots [a good but not supreme spiritual foundation], her breakthrough had been anticipated all along.

In truth, Verdant Consort had broken through to the Ascendant Immortal 6th Tier even earlier than Exquisite Jiang. However, she had delayed some years to cultivate her Great Completion Immortal Body [a perfected immortal physique], which was why she was taking this step slightly later than Exquisite Jiang.

Thinking of this, Eldrin Chen said with a smile, "You should refine your Lifebound Immortal Treasure [a magical treasure bound to one's life force and soul], my lady. I will go and stand guard for Verdant Consort."

With those words, he arrived before Verdant Consort's Seclusion Chamber and settled in to quietly await her emergence.

Indeed, it was not long before Verdant Consort successfully broke through the realm of Ascendant Immortal 7th Tier and stepped out from her Seclusion Chamber.

"She truly succeeded."

Witnessing Verdant Consort's breakthrough, Eldrin Chen could not help but reveal a look of heartfelt joy.

He took out the prepared Five Elements Immortal Energy [immortal-grade spiritual essence containing the power of the five elements] and handed it to Verdant Consort, saying, "Now that you have advanced to the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm, it is time for you to refine an Immortal Treasure [a magical treasure of immortal grade]."

Verdant Consort glanced at it and saw it contained three types of Five Elements Immortal Energy: Last Water [the ultimate essence of the water element], Supple Wood [the essence of the wood element], and Cultivable Earth [the essence of the earth element]. She shook her head slightly.

"During this secluded cultivation, I fell into a state of sudden enlightenment and comprehended a Great Path."

"Oh?"

Eldrin Chen showed a flicker of surprise and couldn't help but smile as he asked, "What kind of Great Path has my lady comprehended?"

"The Trinity Unity."

Verdant Consort spoke, her expression turning solemn. "Where the Polarity [the opposing yet complementary forces of yin and yang] converge, nurturing a single thread of life force—that is the essence of my Verdant Lotus Great Path."

As Verdant Consort explained in detail, Eldrin Chen gradually came to understand the insights she had gained from this sudden enlightenment.

According to her, the Great Path she had comprehended was named the 'Polarity Sown Verdant Lotus'—a supreme Great Path of boundless potential.

The so-called Polarity Sown Verdant Lotus required the simultaneous cultivation of three distinct Path Principles Power [the fundamental laws and energies that form the basis of a cultivation art]: the Supple Wood, the Last Water, and the Blazing Third Fire.

This path took the Supple Wood Path Principles as its core, using it to plant and nurture a single Path Principles Verdant Lotus [a spiritual lotus manifestation of one's cultivated path principles]. Enjoyed this chapter? Read more at audio–novel.com.
