Chapter 1229. Supreme Immortal Marrow, Source of the Water Vein

After much deliberation, Immortal 6 Stars remained clear in his heart.

Rather than pursuing the top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), it would be better to exchange it for a supreme immortal treasure to directly enhance my power, ensuring I survive the 10 1000 Immortals Great Tribulation.

Eldrin also understood this point. He gave a slight nod and, after a moment of contemplation, said, "If you are not in a hurry, wait another 10 1000 years. I shall grant you a ready-made supreme-grade immortal treasure."

"Good."

The 6 Stars Immortal could not help but nod with a faint smile upon hearing this.

After the matter was thus settled, Immortal 6 Stars and the others tactfully withdrew to tend to their injuries.

After the others had departed, Eldrin remained behind with Qing Ji, Lyra, Lila, and Banquet Purple Ji.

In addition, the 2 family immortals, Kael and Chen Hongyuan, were also retained by Eldrin.

Looking at the few who remained, Eldrin took out 2 portions of the Aqua Vein Origin and 1 portion of the Ren Shui Immortal Marrow before speaking.

"The source of this water vein and the Numinous Essence of Ren Water, Lyra (Person Name) and Aoi-hime (Person Name) shall each take 1 portion."

Qing Ji and Lyra’s (Person Name) eyes flickered slightly, a pensive expression flashing across their hearts.

Among these 3 supreme treasures, the Ren Shui Immortal Marrow is 1 of the 5 Origin Immortal Marrows, with a grade reaching the pinnacle of the immortal rank. It serves not only as a crucial treasure for refining supreme immortal artifacts, but can also be utilized to cultivate divine abilities.

Moreover, this treasure contains the power of water element laws, capable of assisting immortals with water-based celestial bodies in breaking through their physical limits and increasing their chances of attaining the Primordial Chaos True Body by 20 percent.

The Source of the Water Vein was also of immense value. Similar to the Source of the Stars, it could be fused into water-attributed immortal treasures, causing their material essence to undergo a profound metamorphosis.

Moreover, according to the method passed down by Elder Canglan, this Water Vein Origin could even assist a top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) in evolving into a Prime-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root). This demonstrated its value might surpass even that of ordinary supreme-grade immortal treasures.

Eldrin possessed the Primordial Purple Qi, so he had no need to cultivate an Eighth-Level Heavenly Spiritual Root using the method passed down by the Canglan Elder. Naturally, there was no reason to retain the Water Vein Origin for nurturing a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Therefore, he took out all 3-tenths of the treasures and let Lyra and Qing Ji choose freely.

After a moment of contemplation, Lyra spoke up, "This source of the water vein can aid my second primordial spirit in its transformation. I shall take 1 portion."

Qing Ji also took a share of the Water Vein Origin. This treasure was an excellent choice whether used to advance her Ren Shui Qing Lian or to nourish the sword soul of the Qing Long Nao Hai Jian.

Seeing there was still 1 last drop of Ren Shui Xian Sui remaining, a faint realization stirred within Eldrin’s heart—he understood that the 2 had intentionally left it for him.

This supreme-grade Ren Shui Xian Sui contains the essence of "Water's True Softness," a crucial element required for the future advancement of Eldrin's innate divine ability, the Primordial Unity Divine Art.

According to Eldrin's (Person Name) estimation, advancing his Primordial Chaos Art to the World-Creation Realm would require 5 supreme-grade immortal marrows: Water of Ren, Fire of Li, Earth of Wu, Metal of Geng, and Wood of Jia.

This Eldrin Water Marrow was 1 of them.

"Now that my Primordial Chaos True Softness is nearing completion, it is indeed time to begin preparations for the materials required for my advancement."

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly as he stored away the Numinous Water Marrow, thus completing the distribution of the most precious supreme-grade immortal treasures.

After distributing these immortal treasures, a faint smile graced the faces of the group.

This time, not only did Eldrin and Lyra reap bountiful rewards, but even Lady Yanzi and Kael also obtained a vast trove of treasures.

Each of them had obtained a large quantity of rare immortal treasures. Once fully assimilated, every individual would possess several superior-grade immortal artifacts, ensuring no shortage of cultivation resources until they reached the ninth tier of Ascendant Immortal realm.

Yang saw that everyone was overjoyed. Eldrin smiled and said, "This time we've divided quite a few treasures, yet these are merely a windfall of wealth."

"This aquatic blessed land before us holds truly immeasurable value. If properly managed, it can continuously yield all manner of celestial treasures and divine materials."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this. Lyra (Person Name) spoke up, "If managed properly, the mineral deposits and spirit jade immortal clams within the blessed land can continuously provide us with resources."

"However, fully developing it would require a considerable workforce. This blessed land is located at the bottom of the Return to Ruins, making it nearly impossible for immortals below the Ascension Realm to come here."

"Yes." Lila nodded, her brow slightly furrowed as she said, "We would need at least over a million cultivators at or above the Purple Mansion realm to properly operate this blessed land."

"At present, we are short-handed. We can't possibly have us immortals planting spiritual herbs, breeding spirit fish, and cultivating spirit clams. That would far too greatly hinder our cultivation."

Upon hearing this, the others also slightly furrowed their brows.

Yet Eldrin (Person Name) pondered briefly before speaking: "With the protection of the Yin-Yang Polarity Pearl, I might be able to bring a group of people down."

"However, maintaining the Yin-Yang Polarity Pearl constantly would severely deplete my immortal essence. If I were to frequently transport people in and out of the Return to Ruins, even my magical power would struggle to endure it."

Seeing this, Qing Ji spoke up, "The location of the Returning Abyss is the clan's greatest secret. Until we break through to the Earth Immortal Realm, it must never be divulged."

"We can select a group of clansmen to manage and operate the Feyan Abyssal Paradise within the Guixu Blessed Land."

"However, to prevent the news of the blessed land from leaking, they must not leave this Return Abyss Blessed Land and return to the Return Abyss Sea until they have attained immortality."

The assembled immortals all nodded in agreement. Eldrin then declared, "So it is settled. Select a group from your clans and have them come to the Abyssal Return Water Vein Blessed Land."

"However, once they enter the Abyssal Chasm, they cannot leave these abyssal waterways until achieving immortality. Therefore, we ought to grant them double compensation as recompense for entering these blessed aquatic realms."

Upon hearing this, the group nodded slightly. The Abyssal Water Vein was a forbidden land for mortals.

Once they entered the Abyssal Chasm of Returning Ruin, they could not fly out by their own power until achieving immortality.

Before Eldrin could break through to the Earth Immortal realm, he would never release the cultivators from the blessed land, lest any information about the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss be leaked.

This might take tens of thousands, or even a 100-some 1000 years. Such an immense span of time would already amount to countless cycles of reincarnation for these clansmen who could never attain immortality.

I fear not only would I be unable to leave, but even my descendants would be trapped here for generations to come.

"Since this matter has been settled, let us first bring over a group of cultivators."

Seeing them nod, Eldrin felt a slight sense of relief and immediately began arranging the matter.

With his current strength, he could activate the Yin-Yang Polarity Pearl within the Return Abyss, shielding up to 3,000 cultivators at once.

Eldrin spared no expense in his magical power, traversing back and forth 10 times in succession. In the end, he transported a full 32,000 cultivators down before ceasing to ferry any more minor practitioners.

These 30,000 cultivators all possessed extraordinary spiritual roots, with cultivation realms ranging from the Purple Mansion to the Golden Core stages.

Their cultivation levels were not particularly high, but each possessed remarkable potential, having been meticulously selected by Eldrin as nascent soul spirit seeds.

Chapter 1 The biting northern wind swept across the mountain range, howling like countless vengeful spirits. Snowflakes danced wildly in the air, blanketing the jagged peaks in a layer of pristine white. Amidst this silver-clad world, a lone figure stood atop a towering cliff, his black robes whipping violently in the gale. Lin Feng's eyes, deep as ancient abysses, stared into the distance. 1 100 years had passed since he last set foot here. The mortal world had changed, yet these mountains remained eternal, silent witnesses to the passage of time. "30-2 1000 spirit stones," he murmured, his voice barely audible above the wind. "All for this moment." From his sleeve, he produced a small jade vial. Within it lay a single 9 Revolutions Soul Pill, glowing with a soft golden light. This elixir had cost him nearly everything—not just the spirit stones, but decades of arduous cultivation and countless life-and-death battles. Suddenly, the sky darkened. Ominous clouds gathered overhead, swirling into a massive vortex. Bolts of purple lightning snaked through the gloom, illuminating the snow-covered landscape with an eerie glow. "So it begins," Lin Feng whispered, his expression calm yet resolute. He had waited for this day for over a century. The Heavenly Tribulation had arrived. The first bolt of lightning struck with earth-shattering force. Lin Feng's hands moved in a blur, forming intricate seals. A shimmering barrier of golden light erupted around him, meeting the heavenly punishment head-on. The mountain trembled. Ancient trees splintered into dust, and massive boulders were reduced to rubble. Yet Lin Feng stood firm, his black robes billowing despite the destructive energies swirling around him. "Again!" he shouted defiantly at the raging heavens. The clouds churned more violently, gathering energy for the second strike. This time, 9 crimson lightning bolts descended simultaneously, each carrying the power to vaporize a lesser cultivator. Lin Feng's eyes narrowed. He drew the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, its blade glowing with ethereal flames. With a single fluid motion, he carved a complex pattern in the air, meeting the crimson lightning with his own blazing counterattack. The collision created a shockwave that rippled through the mountains, melting the snow for miles around. Steam rose in great clouds, obscuring the cliff from view. When the mist cleared, Lin Feng remained standing, though blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. His robes were torn, and the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss hummed faintly in his hand. "Not enough," he declared, his voice ringing with determination. "You'll have to do better than that!" As if in response, the heavenly vortex began to change. The purple and crimson lightning merged, forming a terrifying amalgamation of golden and black energies. This was the final tribulation—the Yin Yang Heavenly Lightning, said to have destroyed countless promising cultivators throughout history. Lin Feng took a deep breath. This was the moment he had prepared for through countless sleepless nights and endless cultivation. He reached into his spiritual pouch and retrieved the 9 Revolutions Soul Pill. Without hesitation, he swallowed the priceless elixir. Instantly, torrential spiritual energy flooded his meridians, burning like liquid fire. His cultivation base, already at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, began to tremble and expand, pushing against the boundaries that had contained it for decades. The final lightning strike descended—a colossal pillar of intertwined light and darkness, carrying the absolute authority of heaven and earth. Lin Feng's eyes shone with brilliant light. He raised the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss high, channeling every ounce of his power into 1 ultimate technique. "For a 1000 years I've walked this path!" he roared. "Today, I shall transcend!" Golden light erupted from his body, forming the phantom of a giant celestial figure behind him. The phantom mirrored his movements, striking upward to meet the heavenly punishment. The resulting explosion blinded the world.
