Chapter 1214 Divine Light Subdues the Enemy, True Dragon(CLASS) Retreats
With this thought in mind, Eldrin couldn't help but gaze upon his 5 innate magic treasures.
His 5 innate immortal treasures were all extraordinary. If he could merge these treasures into 1, transforming them into a set of innate formation treasures, that would truly become an ultimate trump card capable of dominating the world.
"The Way of the 5 Elements—mutual generation and restraint, cycling without end—this is the Primordial Chaos."
"This is naturally suited to be a set of formation artifacts—perhaps it's worth attempting some deductions."
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly, yet withdrew the thought in an instant.
But then, the Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword Formation soared into the sky, transforming into a crisscrossing expanse of sword radiance that enveloped him completely.
"It's time to end this!"
Facing such a heaven-ascending strike, Eldrin's heart remained utterly tranquil.
With a flick of his sleeve, a 5-colored divine light soared into the heavens, instantly illuminating a Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword.
The Celestial Dragon Subduing Demons Sword Formation, an interconnected entity that could suppress even the finest immortal treasures, now faltered before the 5-colored divine radiance. In the blink of an eye, it was seized and drawn away.
"Damn it!"
Watching a single Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword being drawn away, a pang of dread echoed in Ao Ming’s heart.
Although the Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demons Sword Formation possessed formidable power, its might relied entirely on the array's structure. Now that 1 of the 7 immortal swords was missing, the formation immediately collapsed, never to display its peerless brilliance again.
"Wretched dragon, face your doom!"
With a single strike of the 5-Colored Divine Light shattering his foes, Eldrin felt immediate reassurance in his heart.
Once more, he channeled his energy, and the 5-colored divine light coalesced and dispersed at will, instantly transforming into a resplendent celestial radiance that swept across the heavens.
The remaining 6 Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Swords, now bereft of their formation's augmentation, stood no chance against Eldrin's Mahayana divine art. In the blink of an eye, they were completely seized.
"Impossible!"
In the blink of an eye, as the Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Swords were completely seized, Ao Ming’s face abruptly shifted dramatically.
Eldrin (Person Name) had never anticipated that this 5-Colored Divine Light, already immensely powerful in its own right, when augmented by the Primordial Chaos Law of the Profound Realm, would exhibit such overwhelmingly formidable force.
Now that he had lost the Dragon Subduing Sword Formation, he knew that continuing to fight Eldrin would likely prevent him from leaving alive.
He could no longer afford to keep fighting Eldrin, and immediately fled toward the edge of the Heavenly Pillar. Yet how would Eldrin ever let him escape so easily?
"Where do you think you're going?!"
But with a single resonant hum of the sword, Eldrin flicked his sleeve, and the Twin Celestial Parting Blades instantly erupted with Immortal-Slaying Radiance, cleaving directly toward Ao Ming.
Without the Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword Formation, how could Ao Ming withstand such a Slaying Immortal Radiance?
Watching the Sky-Severing Twin Swords converging toward him, he instantly felt an icy chill pierce his brow. In his panic, he impulsively activated the 7 Stars Leaping Dragon Diagram to block the assault.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) furrowed his brow. He swiftly maneuvered the Sky-Severing Twin Swords to glide over the 7 Stars Soaring Dragon Diagram, then summoned the 5-Colored Divine Light to seize the diagram.
It was in that brief moment of delay that Ao Ming (Person Name) leaped down from the stone pillar and fled into the boundless depths of the void.
"Hmph!"
Watching Ao Ming flee, Eldrin showed no trace of regret, merely letting out an indifferent, cold hum.
Had he just now urged the Celestial Severance Twin Swords to slash through the 7 Stars Soaring Dragon Diagram, he might very well have slain Ao Ming (Person Name) with a single stroke.
However, doing so would inevitably lead to a complete rupture with the 1000 Dragon Lake.
This Ao Ming was the Eighth Elder of 1000 Dragon Lake, a high-ranking figure within their lineage. The dragon clan would surely not stand idly by after his death.
By then, 1000 Dragon Lake would likely risk shattering all pretense of cordiality with Glaze Divine Monarch and could not resist taking forceful action against the Abyssal Return Sea.
Moreover, doing so would inevitably destroy the 7 Stars Soaring Dragon Diagram. Without it, the 7 Heaven-Subduing Dragon Swords in his possession would lose much of their power, becoming nothing more than an ordinary high-grade sword array.
For Eldrin (Person Name), sparing Ao Ming's life in exchange for a complete set of the Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword Array was already a profitable transaction.
After losing this Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Sword Formation, Ao Ming's power was greatly diminished, falling to the level of an ordinary Ninth Realm Ascendant. He could no longer pose a lethal threat to Eldrin.
Now, to return to our story. After defeating Ao Ming, Eldrin (Person Name) felt a faint sense of relief settle within him.
Yet unexpectedly, no 1 else challenged him after that.
At first, Eldrin was somewhat astonished, but soon he grasped the situation. The reason no 1 challenged him was because his consecutive victories against 2 opponents had demonstrated strength approaching the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm.
The remaining immortals, witnessing his astonishing prowess, had no desire to confront him on this platform and thus scattered to contend for the other Celestial Pillars.
Left with no other choice, Eldrin could only inform Lyra, Qing Ji, and the others, instructing them to go and contend for the remaining Heaven Pillars.
Seeing this, Lyra (Person Name), Qing Ji, and Immortal Liu Chen wasted no further time and immediately chose 1 of the celestial pillars to contend for.
Though their strength was considerable, it could not compare to Eldrin's profound foundation. Many celestial demons and divine spirits, each believing they could best him, stepped forward 1 after another to issue challenges. In the blink of an eye, the battles erupted into a blazing storm of clashing forces.
In the end, it was Lyra (Person Name) who emerged victorious first. With cultivation surpassing the Ninth Realm of Ascension and the Mysterious Sun Infinite Pearl (Magic Treasure), she successively defeated 5 opponents, securing the first opportunity to comprehend the Heaven-Stele.
Qing Ji followed closely behind. Protected by the Yin-Yang Dual Polarity Pearl and having cultivated the foundation of the Yin-Yang Seed Green Lotus, the combined might of the Crimson and Azure Twin Dragon Swords was unparalleled. Having defeated countless demon immortals and divine spirits, he secured a spot to comprehend the Heaven-Stele.
The 6 Stars Immortal was no exception. Without a moment’s hesitation, he summoned the Crimson Dragon Flame-Scorching Heaven Sword, unleashing the full might of this supreme-grade immortal artifact of slaughter.
1 after another, several Immortals ascended, yet each was ultimately struck down.
There were also celestial beings wielding supreme-grade immortal treasures who considered giving it a try, yet after much hesitation, they ultimately chose to refrain.
At present, there were over a 1000 Heavenly Pillars, yet only around a 1000 immortals wielded supreme-grade immortal treasures. If they shifted their focus to contend for another Heavenly Pillar, their chances of success would be overwhelmingly high. There was no need to stubbornly clash with Immortal Liuchen here.
After all, the might of this supreme-grade Slaughter Immortal Treasure was far too terrifying. If 1 were carelessly struck down by a single swing of its blade, it would truly be a most unjust death.
With such a mindset, the 6 Stars Immortal managed to defeat 5 opponents in a row, securing the opportunity to comprehend the Heaven-Reaching Stele.
Watching the 3 of them achieve successive victories, Elder Void-Refiner’s confidence swelled. By now, most of the 3,000 Heavenly Pillars had already been claimed by cultivators wielding supreme-grade immortal treasures. Without further delay, he swiftly ascended 1 of the remaining pillars.
His cultivation was only at the sixth level of Ascension Realm, yet the moment he stepped onto the platform, he drew the attention of numerous immortals.
Some immortals of modest strength were immediately overjoyed and rushed forward to challenge him, eager to contend for a spot at this Heaven-Pillar.
However, the Refined Void Immortal was protected by the Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Golden Scale Armor. Ordinary immortals at the peak of Ascension Realm could hardly harm him, allowing him to successively defeat 4 formidable foes.
Just as the Refining Void Immortal was about to secure the Heavenly Pillar nomination, a powerful demon immortal finally stirred from his repose.
A demon immortal at the Eighth Level of Ascension leaped forward, immediately brandishing a supreme-grade immortal treasure to strike down with overwhelming force, aiming to slay the Transcendent Void Immortal in a single blow.
The might of that supreme immortal treasure was truly formidable, yet the Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Golden Scale Armor proved itself worthy of being called a supreme defensive immortal treasure. Even as it trembled violently under the assault, its radiance scattering chaotically, the indestructible golden scales remained completely unbreached.
"Damn it."
