Chapter 1362 : The Thunder Abyss Trial

That is to say, Eldrin Chen's Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a legendary physique of immense resilience] is extremely powerful, capable of dissolving various types of alien Rule Power [the power derived from comprehending a fundamental law of the cosmos], and possesses great resistance to the power of thunder and lightning.

If an ordinary Late Stage Earth Immortal [a cultivator at the late stage of the Earth Immortal realm] were to come here, they likely wouldn't last for One Shichen before being utterly annihilated. "Merely the eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss [a chasm of concentrated and devastating heavenly thunder], and it is already this formidable."

"If one were to step into the ninth layer of the Thunder Abyss, wouldn't even a Earth Immortal Nine Layers [a cultivator at the ninth layer of the Earth Immortal realm] struggle to preserve themselves?" Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, feeling a surge of profound shock.

He had a feeling that within that ninth layer of the Thunder Abyss, aside from the Silent Annihilation Thunder God, likely no deity in the entire Myriad Calamities Thunder Sea [a vast sea of thunder embodying countless heavenly tribulations] would be able to set foot.

For the power within this eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss was already astonishingly intense; even a Late Stage Earth Immortal who commanded the Rule of Thunder would find it difficult to endure here for long.

The reason Eldrin Chen could tread this place was not only due to the strength of his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body, but more importantly because he had mastered the Life Rule Power [the fundamental power governing vitality and restoration].

Both his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body and his Primordial Chaos Limitless Rule [a supreme cultivation art of boundless chaos] were of Primordial Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] nature, capable of grinding away all alien energies and remaining unconstrained by any foreign rules.

Unless an opponent used means far surpassing his own cultivation level—such as injuring him with the power of Dao Principles [the fundamental truths that underpin all existence]—ordinary wounds inflicted at the Earth Immortal level could leave no lasting sequelae on Eldrin Chen.

And in the absence of alien energy corrosion, no matter how severe his injuries, the Primordial Life Rule [the fundamental law of primordial life force] could restore him in an instant.

Therefore, even though the heavenly thunder within this eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss was potent enough to slay a Late Stage Earth Immortal Ancient Ancestor, it could not completely annihilate Eldrin Chen. Read, share, and discuss at audi novel.com.

Instead, in the process of being repeatedly grievously wounded and then constantly recovering, Eldrin Chen's physical body was tempered into an indestructible state. During this ordeal, the five Earth Vein [earthly energy channels] within his Five Viscera [the five vital organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys] were refined, becoming increasingly pure and potent.

In the past, when he had roughly absorbed the Supreme Grade Earth Vein [a supreme-grade earthly energy channel], Eldrin Chen had inadvertently fused many impure energies of the five elements into his Five Viscera.

Had Eldrin Chen attempted to cleanse these impurities within his Five Viscera using the Primordial Chaos Limitless Rule Power [a divine ability of boundless primordial chaos], it would have taken him hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years.

Yet now, under the relentless forging of the heavenly thunder, the countless impurities within his Five Viscera were scoured out by the lightning and instantly incinerated into ashes of tribulation.

Through this process, the Five Divine Spirits [the five divine spirits corresponding to the five viscera] within Eldrin Chen's body grew increasingly flawless, like five supremely pure and sacred Innate Sacred Spirits [innately born divine spirits] seated within his Five Viscera, each one's power becoming more condensed and formidable.

Thus, eight hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

Only after eight centuries, when not a trace of impure energy remained within his Five Viscera and they had achieved a state of absolute purity, did Eldrin Chen finally open his eyes.

"The cultivation of the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering [a body-tempering art using heavenly thunder] is now complete."

Opening his eyes, Eldrin Chen sensed the power coursing within him and murmured softly to himself.

He had a profound sense that the power of the five Earth Vein within his Five Viscera, after being ceaselessly forged by the heavenly thunder, had been utterly purged of all impurities and discordant energies, reaching a state of flawless perfection.

Moreover, his physical body's resistance to the power of the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation [a cataclysmic trial of heavenly lightning] had also undergone a monumental enhancement, with the overall strength and resilience of his entire form reaching a new, formidable peak.

At this moment, Eldrin Chen felt an unshakable confidence within his heart. Even without relying on external artifacts, with the power of his physical body alone, he could now contend with an Earth Immortal Sixth Layer Ancient Ancestor.

"Since my cultivation here is complete, it is time to depart." With this thought, Eldrin Chen murmured to himself.

Yet, before his final farewell, he cast a glance towards the ninth layer of the Thunder Abyss, a contemplative gleam flashing in his eyes.

Within the eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss, his path of cultivating the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering [a technique that refines the body using heavenly lightning] had already reached its zenith. Proceeding into the ninth layer would offer him no further benefit.

His physical form had been tempered by the heavenly thunder to its absolute limit. Unless he advanced further into the Earth Immortal Realm, even the most potent heavenly lightning could not grant him greater enhancement.

On the contrary, the more intense thunderforce of the deeper layer held the potential to injure Eldrin Chen's Primordial Source [the foundational life force and spiritual root of a cultivator] and severely damage the nascent deities [spiritual embodiments] recently nurtured within his Five Viscera [the five core organs in traditional Chinese medicine: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys].

Nevertheless, Eldrin Chen remained intensely curious about the ninth layer. As the final stratum of the Myriad Tribulations Thunder Abyss, the cultivation ground of the Silent Annihilation Thunder God, it likely concealed treasures of incalculable value.

And among them, there might even lie secrets pertaining to the myriad realms' Thunder Abyss.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen mused thoughtfully, "With the Primordial Chaos True Aura [a protective aura of primordial chaos energy] shielding my body, coupled with my current Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a physique tempered to near-invulnerability by primordial chaos], I should be able to withstand the power of the ninth layer's Heavenly Thunder Tribulation for more than a quarter of an hour."

"Let us see what lies within this final layer." With those words, Eldrin Chen immediately took action.

Considering the potential overwhelming power of the ninth layer's Heavenly Thunder Tribulation [a tribulation of heavenly thunder], Eldrin Chen dared not summon the Yin-Yang Void Realm. Instead, he activated the Primordial Chaos True Aura [a defensive aura of primordial chaos] to protect himself, then stepped into the ninth layer.

The moment he entered the ninth layer of the Thunder Abyss, Eldrin Chen was met by a surge of scorching, thunderous power. It instantly struck his Primordial Chaos True Aura, causing the protective aura to tremble.

Fortunately, this Profound Grade Divine Ability [a profound-level divine ability] was truly extraordinary. Even against the power of the ninth Thunder Abyss layer, it held firm. "Such formidable Heavenly Thunder Tribulation power," he murmured.

Eldrin Chen drew a sharp breath. The thunderous force within this ninth layer was comparable to a strike from a late-stage Earth Immortal [an Earth Immortal realm cultivator]. Even his Primordial Chaos True Aura could not withstand it for long.

With this thought, he dared not delay for even a moment. He immediately flew deeper into the heart of the ninth Thunder Abyss layer. For the best reading experience, visit https://audio-novel.com.

Yet, the deeper he ventured, the more potent and overwhelming the thunderous energy became. It grew so fierce that even his Primordial Chaos True Aura began to strain under the relentless assault.

"Such immense thunder power... this Ninefold Thunder Abyss is a place of near-limitless lightning," he realized with awe.

"Could it be that one day, a supreme thunder Grotto-Heaven [a blessed paradise realm] will emerge from the depths of the Western Qi Divine Abyss Sea?" A wave of shock and dread washed over Eldrin Chen, his expression shifting repeatedly.

In these conditions, holding out for a quarter of an hour was impossible; even half that time would push him to his absolute limit. Yet, having come this far, retreating now would be a profound waste.

Eldrin Chen immediately began evading the thunderous forces while descending towards the depths of the Ninefold Thunder Abyss. Unconsciously, he arrived at the very bottom of the Ninefold Thunder Abyss.

"A Taiyi Immortal Weapon [a supreme-grade immortal artifact], and a World-Opening Ancient Herb [a legendary herb said to possess the power to shape worlds]!"

The moment he reached the bottom of the Ninefold Thunder Abyss, Eldrin Chen could not help but exclaim in astonishment.

It turned out that at the base of this Ninefold Thunder Abyss stood a thunder mountain several hundred Zhang-length [one Zhang-length equals three point three three meters] tall. At its summit were three Tribulation Lightning Pool [pools of concentrated heavenly tribulation lightning].

These three Tribulation Lightning Pool [pools of concentrated heavenly tribulation lightning] were all enveloped by boundless Heavenly Thunder Tribulation [the cataclysmic lightning trials sent by the heavens]. They seemed to draw in the surrounding thunderous energies, granting Eldrin Chen a rare moment to catch his breath and spare some effort to observe these pools.

Within the leftmost Tribulation Lightning Pool [pool of concentrated heavenly tribulation lightning] grew a small thunder tree, three Chi-length [one Chi-length equals one third of a meter] tall. Upon its branches hung a precious fruit that flowed with the power of lightning.

In the central Tribulation Lightning Pool [pool of concentrated heavenly tribulation lightning], a Peerless Immortal Sword [a sword of unmatched, immortal-grade quality] wreathed in lightning hovered and sank. The sword was neither stone, jade, nor metal. At this moment, it was being tempered by countless strikes of thunder, faintly radiating peerless thunderous sword-light.

The Tribulation Lightning Pool [pool of concentrated heavenly tribulation lightning] on the right, however, was completely empty. Clearly, the treasure it once contained had already been taken. Enjoyed this chapter? Read more at audio–novel.com.
