Chapter 1292 : The Divine Maiden's World-Opening
Deep within the Dimensional Void [the chaotic, formless space between dimensions], at the very source point of all existence.
A hazy, golden luminescence blossomed—an indescribable, world-startling radiance that cleaved the void dimensions asunder, forcing open a space of dazzling, unparalleled brilliance.
"BOOM—"
In that single instant, from nothingness, a minute, nascent space was born, already pregnant with potential.
And within that minute space stood a peerless divine maiden, clad in a gown of flowing gold, above her head a resplendent golden sun bobbed and weaved.
Boundless Rule Power [the fundamental laws and principles that govern reality] swirled around her, preventing this newly born world from collapsing back into nothingness.
"The Divine Maiden is World-Opening [performing the supreme act of creating a world from the primal chaos]!"
Witnessing this spectacle, the gathered Immortals [beings who have transcended mortality through cultivation] narrowed their eyes slightly, expressions of profound astonishment dawning on their faces.
This magnificent feat—using supreme might to sunder the Dimensional Void and evolve a zero-dimensional point into a vast three-dimensional world—was something even these seasoned Immortals feared they might witness only once in their eternal lifetimes.

In a single Ksana-time [an infinitesimal unit of time from Buddhist cosmology, less than a second], Sun Consort took a sudden, earth-shaking step forward, manifesting her World-Opening True Body that spanned millions upon millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters].
In that instant, her Great Sun Divine Body was pushed to its absolute limit. A majestic and boundless surge of World-Opening Power erupted, cleaving through the endless fabric of heaven and earth.
With a deafening, world-shattering roar, the void was filled with the mist of Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state before creation]. Right at the location of this zero-dimensional point of origin, she forcibly carved open a void spanning tens of millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters].
"It is still not enough!"
Even though she had split open tens of millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters] of heaven and earth, Sun Consort still felt it was insufficient.
With another thunderous step, her vast and magnificent World-Opening True Body was driven to its ultimate peak. Another strike of World-Opening Power was unleashed, once again expanding the void by tens of millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters].
She struck again and again, and before anyone realized it, she had forcibly carved out a space of countless hundreds of millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters], only then ceasing her efforts.
By this point, everyone could witness with their own eyes the immense transformations taking place within that newly opened heaven and earth.
Within the nascent cosmos, the Chaos Energy Flow [the primordial energy of creation] began to differentiate into Polarity [the fundamental opposing forces of the universe], giving birth to the pure and turbid breaths.
The pure breath ascended, while the turbid breath descended. A primordial world, seemingly in the very act of Primordial Chaos Unfolding [the grand cosmological event of creation from chaos], appeared to be slowly gestating and taking form.
Within this primordial Ancient Continent [a vast, untamed landmass from the earliest epochs of creation], faint traces of countless Path Principles [the fundamental laws and truths of the cosmos] and divine chains of order intertwined, weaving together to form the very veins and arteries of the continent's primordial energy.
Spiritual lakes and wondrous mountains materialized, their depths shimmering with a hazy, ethereal light of Path Principles [the fundamental laws and truths of the cosmos]. Within them, it seemed as if countless rare treasures and divine materials were gestating, waiting to be born.
And at the very moment when Heaven and Earth cleaved apart, defining their Polarity [the fundamental duality of existence, such as yin and yang], a single stream of Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state before creation] and primordial energy manifested within the newly formed cosmos.
"World-Opening Energy [the primordial essence released at the moment a new world is born]," Eldrin Chen murmured, his eyes blazing with intense light.
The manifestation of World-Opening Energy [the primordial essence released at the moment a new world is born] between Heaven and Earth was a clear sign that the first layer of this nascent heaven had been successfully forged.
The instant she beheld that stream of World-Opening Energy [the primordial essence released at the moment a new world is born], Sun Consort [a title for a powerful female cultivator associated with solar energy] swept her sleeve, drawing the energy towards her and fusing it into her Lifebound Immortal Treasure [a magical artifact intimately connected to a cultivator's life force and cultivation path], the 'Great Sun God Pearl'.
This Great Sun God Pearl was one of Sun Consort's two Lifebound Immortal Treasure [magical artifacts intimately connected to a cultivator's life force and cultivation path]. Its grade had always been just a single, final step away from becoming a true World-Opening Treasure [an artifact of supreme power, capable of assisting in or surviving the creation of a world].
Now, having absorbed the World-Opening Energy [the primordial essence released at the moment a new world is born], the pearl trembled violently, erupting with a radiance that shook the very heavens.
In that fleeting moment, within this heaven and earth born of the Primordial Chaos Opening [a supreme divine ability to cleave order from chaos and create a new realm], vast torrents of Primordial Solar Flame [the most ancient and pure form of solar fire] energy surged madly, converging upon the transforming pearl.
In the span of mere moments, the Great Sun God Pearl [a supreme treasure embodying the essence of the sun] absorbed it all, then with a thunderous surge, ascended into the ranks of World-Opening Treasure [a treasure of such power it can help forge a new world].
"Again," she commanded.
Once her Lifebound Supreme Treasure [a cultivator's most vital treasure, bound to their very soul] had successfully advanced, Sun Consort wasted no time. She immediately channeled the Great Sun God Pearl to once more World-Opening [the act of creating a new world or realm].
There, within that primordial expanse, Sun Consort stood with her Lifebound Supreme Treasure, the 'Great Sun God Pearl', hovering above her head like a golden sun. Its radiance blazed in all directions, illuminating the boundless, misty void.
In that fleeting instant, the Great Sun God Pearl descended like an ancient sun imposing its will. It unleashed endless waves of Rule Power [the power derived from comprehending and wielding a fundamental law of existence], which swirled around it, ceaselessly carving out a new world from the empty void.
Driven by the power of her Great Sun Rule [her mastery over the fundamental law of the sun], the Great Sun God Pearl erupted with might that even surpassed her own World-Opening True Body [a divine physique capable of world-creation].
As she continued her relentless act of creation, the nascent world expanded. Before long, the second layer of heaven was completed, and another stream of World-Opening Energy [the primordial energy released during the creation of a new world] descended. Access the full story on audio~novel.com.
Seizing this energy, Sun Consort channeled it into her second Lifebound Immortal Treasure [an immortal-grade treasure bound to a cultivator's life], the 'Sun-Refining Heaven Sword' [a sword that refines the heavens with solar fire], elevating it into the ranks of World-Opening Treasure.
"She is supremely confident,"
Eldrin Chen observed, his voice a low murmur as he watched the scene unfold.
Beside him, Exquisite Jiang also gave a slight nod of agreement upon hearing this.
An Earth Immortal Patriarch [a patriarch who has attained the Earth Immortal realm] can only open a limited number of Heavenly Layers [layers of reality within one's inner world] within their Inner World; the number of layers opened determines how many strands of World-Opening Energy [a primal energy released during the creation of an inner world] they obtain.
Generally speaking, the vast majority of Earth Immortal Patriarch can only open two Threefold Heaven [a specific tier of inner world layers], securing merely two or three strands of World-Opening Energy.
For an Earth Immortal Patriarch to continue their cultivation, they must fuse one strand of World-Opening Energy into their World-Opening Foundation [the foundational structure of one's inner world], thereby unlocking the next shackle on their Great Path [the ultimate Dao or cultivation path].
Only after this necessity is met do considerations turn to enhancing one's Lifebound Immortal Treasure [a treasure bound to a cultivator's life and soul] or Innate Divine Ability [a power innate to one's bloodline or constitution].
Take Lingering Sun Patriarch, for instance. In the past, he only opened two Heavenly Layers, obtaining two strands of World-Opening Energy.
Of these two strands, one was fused into the Lingering Sun [a Dao principle or law] rule that formed the core of his cultivation. The remaining strand was used to merge with his Lifebound Immortal Treasure, the Lingering Sun Heaven-Suppressing Pagoda.
Consequently, Lingering Sun Patriarch possesses only a single Innate World-Opening Treasure [a treasure born from the fusion of World-Opening Energy and a Lifebound Treasure]—the Lingering Sun Heaven-Suppressing Pagoda.
Sun Consort's situation differs from Lingering Sun Patriarch's. Both her Great Sun Divine Body [a supreme constitution aligned with the Great Sun] and her comprehension of the Great Sun Rule [the Dao principle of the Great Sun] had reached the World-Opening Realm [the realm of opening one's inner world], allowing her to forge two distinct World-Opening Foundation.
Therefore, she must reserve two strands of World-Opening Energy specifically to shatter the shackles limiting her Great Sun Divine Body and her Great Sun Rule.
Under such circumstances, Sun Consort even took out two strands of World-Opening Energy to elevate her Lifebound Immortal Treasure, a clear sign of her confidence in being able to open at least four layers of heaven and earth [a metaphor for creating a new world or realm].
Just as Eldrin Chen was lost in contemplation, the 'Sun-Refining Heaven Sword' completed its ascension.
Sun Consort grasped the sword and swung it forth with a mighty heave.
"*Chime!*—"
Following a clear and resonant sword cry, boundless sword light instantly cleaved through the void.
Beneath this single stroke of sword radiance, dimensional space spanning who knows how many hundreds of millions of Li-length [one Li-length equals five hundred meters] was split asunder. The aura of Boundless Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] flooded forth, only to be utterly swept away and pacified by this one sword strike.
"The Goddess creates the world, her sword World-Opening [the act of cleaving chaos to establish a new realm]!"
Sensing the lethal edge of this sword strike, the assembled immortals all revealed looks of shock and awe. Even Eldrin Chen felt a deadly threat emanating from it.
He had a premonition that even with his current combat prowess, facing Sun Consort wielding the Sun-Refining Heaven Sword, he would not have absolute certainty of victory.
"*BOOM! RUMBLE!*"
The void thundered, dimensions trembled.
Within that newly opened heaven and earth, vast Primordial Chaos Energy [the primordial, formless energy from which all creation emerges] billowed forth. The Threefold Heaven [the third of the nine layered heavens within a cultivator's inner world] had been successfully established, and a vast, primordial continent had already taken shape.
Sun Consort swallowed this strand of World-Opening Energy [a strand of pure, foundational energy released during the creation of a new world] into her being. Finally, her eyes blazed with dazzling golden light as she fused it into her Primordial Spirit Immortal Embryo [the nascent, embryonic form of an immortal's spiritual core, housed within the Primordial Spirit].
In that instant, within Sun Consort's Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core and true essence of a high-level cultivator], countless Divine Ability [a powerful supernatural technique or power] runes manifested and evolved, ultimately coalescing into a single, world-shaking Immortal Radiance [a brilliant, divine light emitted by an immortal].
"That is..."
Eldrin Chen murmured, his brow furrowing slightly.
In that same instant, Sun Consort once again activated her Divine Ability. With a sweep of her sleeve, a majestic Immortal Radiance capable of World-Opening [the act of creating a new world or realm] swept through the Cosmos [the ordered universe or a cultivator's inner world]. It cleaved through the boundless void Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state before creation] and opened the fourth layer of heaven.
"It is her Innate Divine Ability [a divine power one is born with or awakens naturally], 'Sun-Sweeping Heaven and Earth' [a divine ability that purges and illuminates all of creation]."
Moon Consort whispered, a look of astonishment coloring her features. For uninterrupted reading, go to audio–novel.com.
