Chapter 1304 : Primordial Netherdragon

Genuine-Grade Divine Ability!

As Eldrin’s strike descended with overwhelming force, the Primordial Qi Grasping Hand blotted out the heavens. A faint frown narrowed Youtai’ao’s pupils.

His gaze sharpened slightly, then he sneered coldly, "You truly have some skill!" "Then witness this move!"

As the words fell, Youtai'ao cupped his hands as if embracing the cosmos, manifesting a shaft of tenebrous light. This gloom-laden radiance cycled in ceaseless revolutions, ultimately transforming into a devouring sun of absolute darkness that seemed capable of swallowing both heaven and earth.

The great sun spun and devoured, pulling at the very fabric of heaven and earth, threatening to swallow even the Primordial Qi Grasping Hand into its vortex.

Netherworld Devouring Heaven Art.

Witnessing this scene, Eldrin (Person Name) furrowed his brow slightly, a flicker of astonishment gleaming in his eyes.

You Tai'ao's true form was that of a rare Ancient Nether Dragon among the dragon race—the primordial bloodline of the Black Dragon lineage and 1 of the mighty Ancient True Dragons revered throughout the immortal realms.

As the progenitor bloodline of the Black Dragons, the Primordial Netherdragon naturally possessed all the divine abilities of the Black Dragon clan—each 1 an even more formidable primordial version.

This Netherworld Devouring Heaven Dao was the innate divine ability of the Primordial Nether Dragon lineage, considered the complete version of the Black Dragon Heaven Devouring Art. Its grade had reached the realm of authentic divine abilities.

This Heaven-Opening Divine Art continuously drew upon the Primordial Chaos Grasp, threatening to devour it completely.

Fortunately, the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand encompassed all 5 elements and had reverted to a state of primordial chaos, making it impervious to suppression by all things in heaven and earth. Even this Devouring Heaven Dao of the Netherworld found it difficult to completely consume it.

Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) sneered coldly and said, "You wish to devour this venerable 1's divine ability? I'm afraid you're not qualified enough!"

As the words fell, the power of laws surged around Eldrin. The flames of Pure Yang, the waters of Profound Darkness, the metal of Primordial Chaos, and other supreme forces intertwined and poured into the Primordial Chaos Qi Grasping Hand, evolving into the ultimate law of chaos.

"Boom"

In an instant, with a deafening roar, the Heaven-Devouring Netherwheel capable of swallowing heavens and earth was crushed on the spot.

His divine ability shattered, Youtao retreated 3 steps and couldn't help but look toward Eldrin. In his usually tranquil eyes, there actually flickered a trace of solemn gravity.

"To achieve the Dao through the 5 Spirit Roots—it seems I have underestimated you." *Ding*

A crisp sound rang out as Youtao flicked his sleeve, revealing a blade and a sword.

刀呈现纯黑之色，有无边幽冥煞气缠绕，剑蕴纯白之芒，有耀眼无比的剑芒贯穿苍宇。

You Long saw Youtao approaching with a blade in 1 hand and a sword in the other, his pupils radiating an abyssal darkness. He gazed calmly at Eldrin and spoke with detached composure, "The blade is named Sin-Severing Blade, the sword is called Transmigration Sword."

“I shall sever all your karmic ties and send you to the next life.” *Clang!* In that fleeting moment, blades and swords interwove like a tempest. The ultimate Immortal-Slaying Radiance drowned the heavens, seeking to cleave Eldrin (Person Name) asunder.

Both the blade and sword were You Tai'ao's lifebound immortal treasures, their power overwhelmingly fierce. Eldrin dared not show the slightest negligence, immediately summoning the Celestial Li Twin Swords to engage them in close combat.

1 was a supreme prodigy ranked 20-eighth on the Western Abyss Immortal Leaderboard, while the other was a peerless genius commanding 3 types of Dao Principles. Their clash naturally made it impossible to distinguish superiority.

After exchanging over 70 moves with Eldrin, he realized it would be difficult to achieve victory swiftly. Immediately, he diverted a fraction of his focus to assess the broader battlefield.

At a single glance, his brows furrowed deeply.

Amidst the apex clashes of this confrontation, he found himself locked in a grueling battle against You Tai'ao, while the Great Mystery Divine Spirit and White Abyss Ancestor remained equally matched. Even the united 5 Elements Celestial Dragons could gain no decisive advantage over the Earthspring Ancestor.

However, Ke Ri Ji had already fallen into a disadvantage. The Ancestor of the Violet Radiance Thunder Dragon was a Fourth Tribulation Earth Immortal, who had once opened 3 layers of heavenly realms. Though he had only recently broken through to the mid-stage of Earth Immortal, he was far beyond what an early-stage Earth Immortal could contend with.

Although Riji possessed the 3 Heaven-Opening Treasures—the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel, the Great Sun Divine Pearl, and the Great Sun Refining Heaven Sword—and used the Setting Sun Heavenly Wheel to stabilize her destiny, her combat prowess was scarcely inferior to that of the Violet Radiance Thunder Dragon.

However, Keriji had only just broken through to the first layer of the Earth Immortal realm. Even with her 6 opened celestial apertures—a foundation considered formidable among Earth Immortals—her magical power still fell short of that of the Violet Radiance Thunder Dragon Patriarch.

Amidst such a fierce battle, once Lady Sun exhausts her magical power, she would likely find it difficult to escape the calamity of defeat. "We need someone to break the deadlock."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, then turned his gaze toward Lyra and the others.

At this moment, Lyra and the others were also locked in fierce combat. The battle prowess displayed by 1000 Dragons Lake and the various demon clans could hardly be described as anything less than formidable.

In addition to the 4 Earth Immortal-level combatants, there were also several Half-Step Earth Immortals, including reinforcements such as the Dark Fin Whale of Taicang, the Azure-Scaled Dragon Serpent, the 9-Lives Heavenly Fiend, and the Iron-Scaled Crocodile Dragon.

Under the command of Patriarch Bai Ming, 3 Yaozu Earth Immortals joined forces with 2 Yaozu Earth Immortals from the Tianyao Sea, bringing the total assault force to 9 Half-Step Earth Immortal combatants.

On the human side, the Abyssal Sea Region had 7 cultivators: Elder Windstrider, Lyra (Person Name), Verdant Enchantress, Kael (Person Name), Chen Qiyuan, Stellar Enchantress, and Lunar Enchantress.

With the addition of 5 Half-Step Earth Immortals who came to lend their strength, along with Sky Demon Sea's Void Enlightenment Ancient Buddha, this amounted to a full 13 Half-Step Earth Immortal combatants.

From this perspective, the human race held a numerical advantage. However, the 3 100-Some Immortals of the demon race had deployed the Minor Heavenly Cycle Star Formation—1 of the foundational legacies of 1000 Dragon Lake—making it no easy feat to contend against them.

Now, with Yue Ji, Xing Ji, and Chen Qiyuan joining forces to desperately activate the Triune Wonder Pearl, and the million-strong treasure fleet combining their formations to resist, they barely managed to hold it at bay.

With the absence of these 3 top-tier combatants, the group now faced 9 opponents with only 10 members—a mere sliver of numerical advantage.

Fortunately, Lyra (Person Name), Qing Ji, and Daoist Tianfeng were all top-tier 6 Calamity Immortals in terms of combat prowess. Even the Ancient Buddha of Emptiness had stepped into this realm, creating a qualitative gap between them and others. Now, there was a genuine possibility of breaking the deadlock.

As Eldrin’s gaze shifted toward her, Lyra gave a knowing nod. With a flick of her sleeve, she swept forward to suppress the Sky Demon King.

Lyra's foundation had always been that of a Great Perfection talent. After comprehending the principles over these years, she naturally broke through to the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm. Her combat prowess had long become incomparable to what it once was.

She confronted him directly with the Hexacosine Cauldron and the Heaven's Ruin Immortal-Slaying Sword, forcing the Heavenly Demon King to devote his full strength to defense. Meanwhile, her second nascent soul stealthily controlled the Emerald Wave Lotus Immortal Sword in a surprise attack. In the end, she succeeded in striking down the Heavenly Demon King with a single, decisive blow.

After the Sky Demon King's fall, the battlefield dynamics shifted instantly, and the demon race seemed on the verge of complete defeat. Witnessing this, a 6 Calamity Immortal from the White Abyss Blessed Land gritted his teeth and drew a dazzling sword talisman from his sleeve, slashing it forward with explosive force.

This talisman was an eighth-level Heaven-Sundering Ancient Rune, possessing the power to cleave heaven and earth. To ensure absolute success, it was hurled toward a Fourth Tribulation Immortal.

That 4 Calamities Immortal, known as Daoist Jiu Shu, was a longtime friend of Lady Ri Ji and had been invited to lend his support. However, he possessed only a single top-grade immortal treasure for protection.

With such meager foundations, how could he possibly withstand this blow? He met his demise on the spot, swallowed by regret and thrust into the heavenly tribulation. "Brother Jiu Shu!"

Witnessing the man's demise, Riji (Person Name) felt a flicker of alarm in her heart. Seizing this opening, the Violet Radiance Thunder Dragon pressed its assault, forcing her into relentless retreat.

Fortunately, Patriarch Tianfeng finally unleashed his full might, activating the Twilight Suppressing Heaven Pagoda to descend and crush a 6-Tribulation Immortal on the spot.
