Chapter 1219 The Abyss of Guixu

The 2 had been intimate confidantes for years, and Qingji naturally understood Lyra's (Person Name) unspoken sentiments.

Over the years, Qing Ji had comprehended the Dao of Yin-Yang Azure Lotus. With the Crimson-Azure Twin Dragon Swords in her hands, her offensive prowess could rival even Eldrin's Celestial Departure Twin Blades.

In terms of mana, she possessed the Ren Water Blue Lotus Throne, her immortal essence several times more profound than immortals of the same rank. The only shortcoming lay in her defensive supreme treasure.

Now armed with the protection of the Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Golden Scale Armor, Qing Ji could wield the Twin Blades of Scarlet and Azure with unrestrained ferocity. Her combat prowess had likely surged by more than double. By then, even if 3 to 5 ordinary late-stage Ascension cultivators joined forces, they would stand no chance against her.

Seeing his 2 wives dividing the treasures, Eldrin couldn't help but smile faintly before speaking, "This expedition has yielded us substantial gains. Let us now enter secluded cultivation in these mountains."

"When the 6 Stars Immortal breaks through, we still need to probe the water veins of the Returning Abyss Sea."

Upon hearing this, the women all nodded in agreement. Lyra smiled and said, "An ultimate-grade water vein—if we can locate it, the burden of our cultivation will likely be greatly reduced in the future."

With this matter settled, Eldrin (Person Name) devoted himself to secluded cultivation with a tranquil heart.

His laws had already reached perfection. Without the aid of a Celestial Law Monument, advancing further to deduce the power of rules would undoubtedly be no overnight endeavor.

Therefore, Eldrin did not continue attempting to deduce the laws. Instead, while consolidating his gains, he began refining his own cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities.

With Eldrin's current comprehension of the laws, deducing cultivation techniques and divine abilities was as natural as water flowing downhill. In no time, he had advanced the Primordial Chaos Classic to the 9th Heavenly Layer of Ascension.

Not only that, he had also advanced his innate supernatural power 'Primordial Chaos True Qi' and the Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder to the Perfected Realm.

Next, he only needed to gather the 5 Elements Thunder Source and 5 Origins Immortal Marrow to cultivate these 2 innate divine abilities to the Great Perfection realm.

At present, he had yet to gather all the treasures, preventing these 2 divine abilities from advancing further. However, he had made modest gains in his fourth innate divine ability, the Great Yin-Yang Constellation Dao, having cultivated it to the Realm of Ascension.

After mastering this divine ability, Eldrin's path of celestial divination advanced significantly, greatly reducing the likelihood of falling prey to others' schemes henceforth.

"Having mastered the Great Deduction of Yin-Yang and the Star Dao, let me now perform a calculation."

As he witnessed the successful cultivation of his divine ability, Eldrin joyfully performed a finger calculation. Yet in that instant, his brow twitched faintly as he cast his gaze toward the southeastern horizon.

"Just after my breakthrough, I divined a joyous omen."

A faint smile graced Eldrin’s (Person Name) lips as he emerged from his secluded abode and summoned Lu Wenyuan. “My disciple,” he said, “in 3 months, your Uncle Liuchen will break through to the ninth level of Ascendant Immortal cultivation.”

"Go to the clan treasury and fetch a congratulatory gift to send over."

Thalion (Person Name) froze momentarily before bowing deeply. "This disciple shall obey the master's command."

这一次Eldrin (Person Name)推算的没错，三个月之后六辰仙人出关，修为一举突破到了登仙九重之境。

After his breakthrough, the 6 Stars Immortal merely took a brief moment to consolidate his cultivation before rushing urgently to the summit of Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location).

After the 2 met, Immortal Liu Chen smiled and said, "Now that my cultivation has broken through, it’s time to make plans for that underground water vein."

"Hmm."

Eldrin nodded, then inquired, "Since it's a supreme immortal-grade water vein, I presume it won't be easily subdued."

"We must make further preparations, and when the time comes, summon all the immortals of the Celestial Alliance to join forces."

"Not so fast."

The 6 Stars Immortal shook his head, then said with a gentle smile, "Our 2 factions should join forces to first locate the water vein. We shall decide our next course of action after venturing inside to investigate."

"Very well."

Eldrin nodded, summoned Lyra and Qing Ji, then followed the 6 Astral Immortal deep into the Sea of Returning Abyss.

They journeyed northward for days on end, flying without rest until they finally halted before a vast expanse of sea.

"This is the area."

The 6 Stars Immortal halted before this stretch of sea and spoke, "Last time I deduced with the Liuren Star Plate, I roughly pinpointed the water vein's location to this area."

"Alas, my cultivation level was insufficient to fully uncover it."

"Oh?" Eldrin nodded slightly, then furrowed his brow and said, "How confident are you this time, fellow Daoist?"

"With your assistance now, and my cultivation base having broken through, I have absolute certainty this time."

The 6-Celestials Immortal was brimming with confidence. He drew a resplendent astrolabe from his sleeve and declared, "Fellow Daoist, lend me your aid."

"Agreed."

Eldrin nodded, channeling his Primordial Chaos power into it. The 6 Ren Star Plate shimmered faintly, its inner needle spinning ceaselessly until it finally settled upon a direction.

Seeing this, the 6 Stars Immortal (Person Name) said joyfully, "Follow me."

众人闻言，当即随着六辰仙人一路往前，也不知道飞了多久，直到一片海底深处才停留了下来。

"This is the place."

Gazing at the seabed before him, Immortal 6-Chen felt a surge of joy in his heart, yet a trace of solemnity surfaced on his countenance.

This was a bottomless sea abyss, where the boundless power of water element from all around surged into its depths, vanishing to an unknown destination.

"Could this place truly be the legendary Returning Abyss?"

Eldrin's eyes narrowed slightly as he couldn't help but speak out.

Legend speaks of a fathomless valley in the sea, where all waters converge—this is the location of the Returning Abyss.

The Book of Liezi: Tang Questions records: East of the Bohai Sea, beyond countless hundreds of millions of miles, lies a great chasm—a truly bottomless abyss named the Returning Abyss. The waters from the 8 directions and 9 fields, even the celestial currents of the Milky Way, all pour into it, yet it neither swells nor diminishes.

The Void-Ender signifies the ultimate end of all things, the final destination and conclusion of existence, carrying the meaning of all calamities returning to the void.

At the dawn of creation, when primordial chaos first took form, it gave birth to all things. Through countless calamities, all existence returns to the void, ultimately reverting to nothingness. It was from this profound truth that Eldrin (Person Name) derived his Daoist appellation.

The others were also rather astonished. Immortal Liuchen couldn’t help but take a deep breath and said,

"Where all waters converge, where the vast sea reaches its abyssal end—this indeed matches the legendary description of the Abyssal Chasm of the Returning Void."

"This abyss gathers the waters of the vast sea—no wonder it could nurture a supreme-grade immortal water vein."

Eldrin gave a slight nod and strode toward the abyss. Instantly, an overwhelming suction surged from the oceanic chasm, pulling at him with irresistible force.

Recommendation: Wild Fruit Reader is truly great for binge-reading. You can download it here, everyone should give it a try.

Even a being at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul, if they were to recklessly step inside, would likely find it impossible to escape.

Given Eldrin's current cultivation level, even he could sense considerable pressure. After a moment of contemplation, he remarked, "This abyss is far too mystical. Unless we set up an array to suppress the Li, not even immortals could traverse it freely."

"It cannot be suppressed." The 6 Cycles Immortal spoke with utmost gravity, "This Chasm of Returning Ruin ceaselessly draws the waters of the vast ocean. To resist it is to contend against the very forces of heaven and earth. In the end, it will still be breached."
