Chapter 1361 : Trial of Heavenly Thunder

At the same time, Exquisite Jiang also furrowed her brow. Having already cultivated the World-Opening True Body and the Supreme Lunar Immortal Body [a constitution of supreme lunar purity and power], and possessing the peerless foundation of the Trinity Unity [a supreme cultivation art that unifies three primordial essences], she was no stranger to immense power.

Yet, facing the might of this Heavenly Thunder Tribulation [the divine power of heavenly thunder tribulation], she felt not insignificant pressure.

A premonition struck her: unless one wielded the Thunderclap [the supreme law of thunderclaps], even a Late Stage Earth Immortal [a cultivator at the late stage of the Earth Immortal realm] who dared to reside here permanently would likely face the peril of annihilation.

With this thought, Exquisite Jiang spoke, "This place is likely the perennial cultivation ground for a Late Stage Earth Immortal who commands the Myriad Tribulations Sea of Thunder [a divine ability manifesting a sea of thunder from myriad tribulations]. An ordinary Earth Immortal Patriarch would find it difficult to even set foot here."

"It is a treasure trove for cultivating the World-Opening True Body. Even my Primordial One Indestructibility Body [a constitution of primordial unity and indestructibility] feels considerable strain here."

Eldrin Chen nodded in agreement. "Your Supreme Lunar Immortal Body is indeed Extraordinary, but it lacks the same profound resistance to the Thunderclap," he said.

"I will cultivate here for a time. You should return to the sixth layer and stand guard for me."

"Understood."

Exquisite Jiang gave a slight nod of understanding. She knew her Supreme Lunar Immortal Body was not the Primordial One Indestructibility Body, and her Great Five Elements Limitless Rule [the supreme law governing the limitless cycle of the five elements] was not the Primordial One Limitless Rule [the supreme law of limitless primordial unity]. Therefore, her ability to neutralize and transform such potent, alien energies was not as formidable.

Under these circumstances, prolonged residence in this place would be exceedingly difficult for her. Your portal to cultivation novels: audio-novel . com.

Thus, without hesitation, she immediately retreated to the sixth layer.

After Exquisite Jiang departed, Eldrin Chen immediately activated his Primordial One Indestructibility Body [a legendary physique of supreme resilience], manifesting his World-Opening True Body [a divine form vast enough to blot out the heavens]. He then began his cultivation, bathing within the boundless Sea of Thunder [a vast ocean of divine lightning].

It was undeniable that the seventh layer of the Thunder Abyss was truly Extraordinary. The billions of Thunderclap Force [strands of annihilating thunder-force] within it, each and every one, was capable of inflicting a certain degree of injury upon Eldrin Chen's physical body.

If it were an ordinary Late Stage Earth Immortal, they would likely be unable to endure for long within this seventh layer of the Thunder Abyss. They would be severely wounded and forced to retreat beyond its bounds in short order.

Fortunately, Eldrin Chen's Primordial One Indestructibility Body was supremely exceptional, possessing great resistance to all manner of foreign energies. Furthermore, the Primordial One Limitless Rule [the supreme law of boundless unity] he commanded was capable of grinding down and erasing any and all alien rules.

When these Thunderclap [annihilating thunder-strikes] struck Eldrin Chen's flesh, the wounds they inflicted were instantly healed by the Primordial One Rule of Life [the supreme law governing vitality and restoration] almost as soon as they formed.

Eldrin Chen's body was ceaselessly ravaged, yet it recovered with equal swiftness. Through this relentless cycle, his Primordial One Indestructibility Body grew imperceptibly stronger and more formidable.

The endless torrent of Thunderclap Force hammered his flesh, tempered his bones and meridians, and even penetrated deep into his marrow and Five Viscera [the five vital organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys], refining his Primordial One Indestructibility Body in its entirety.

His Primordial One Indestructibility Body was like a piece of Chaos Ancient Iron [a primordial metal forged in the dawn of creation], endlessly tempered and reforged by the boundless Thunderclap Force.

This was true tempering through a thousand hammers and a hundred refinements. The infinite Thunderclap Force refined his Primordial One Indestructibility Body from the outside in, then from the inside out, in an unending cycle of purification.

Unbeknownst to him, the physical strength of Eldrin Chen grew increasingly solid and unyielding, his Immortality [the state of being impervious to death and decay] becoming more profound. The Five Divine Deities [the divine spirits residing within the five viscera, each governing a fundamental element] within his Five Viscera [the five core organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys] seemed as if tempered by divine fire, the five vast and mighty powers they embodied refined and condensed to a degree far beyond their previous state.

Thus, a century passed in the blink of an eye. Over these hundred years, the physical power of Eldrin Chen swelled to immense proportions, reaching a point where he could endure the endless bombardment of Thunderclap [a powerful thunder-based attack technique] without sustaining the slightest injury.

"A century of Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering [a cultivation art that uses heavenly thunder to refine and strengthen the physical body] has alleviated much of the backlash from absorbing those five Supreme-Grade Earth Vein [a vein of earth essence of the highest possible purity and potency]," he mused.

After the century had elapsed, Eldrin Chen slowly opened his eyes from his deep cultivation, a faint smile gracing his lips.

Previously, after absorbing the five Supreme-Grade Earth Vein, the wellspring of power within his fleshly body had become truly boundless.

Yet, precisely because he had absorbed such a vast amount of external power, his physical form had also become dangerously unstable and unrefined.

The five external Supreme-Grade Earth Vein had been forcibly refined and integrated into his Five Viscera by Eldrin Chen; they were not powers cultivated through his own arduous efforts. Consequently, his mastery over them was far from absolute.

All these years, Eldrin Chen had relied solely on his Primordial One Limitless Rule Power [the supreme, boundless foundational energy of creation] to forcibly control the power housed within his Five Viscera.

Thus, while his Primordial One Indestructibility Body [the Primordial Indestructible Physique, a legendary body cultivation constitution] appeared immensely powerful, its true potential remained largely untapped.

One must understand that each of the five Supreme-Grade Earth Vein within Eldrin Chen's body possessed power equivalent to that of a World-Opening Power [a power capable of splitting open a new world or realm], rivaling the strength of a first-level Earth Immortal [an immortal whose power and foundation are deeply connected to the earth and mortal realms].

If Eldrin Chen could truly gain complete mastery over five Supreme-Grade Earth Veins and fuse their powers into a unified whole, then his Primordial Indestructible Flesh [a supreme physical constitution forged from primordial chaos] would be sufficient to reach a state of perfect completion.

At that time, Eldrin Chen, having synthesized the sharpness and solidity of the Gold Vein [a spiritual vein rich in metallic essence], the resilience and profundity of the earth veins, the enduring vitality of the Wood Vein [a spiritual vein rich in wood essence], the vast gentleness of the Water Vein [a spiritual vein rich in water essence], and the domineering fervor of the Fire Vein [a spiritual vein rich in fire essence], would undoubtedly undergo a startling qualitative transformation.

By then, relying solely on the power of his physical body, Eldrin Chen would be capable of contending with a Late Stage Earth Immortal, a feat not inferior to wielding the Primordial Limitless Law [a supreme law governing boundless potential].

"The Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering [a cultivation art that uses heavenly thunder to refine the body] is for forging the power of the five Earth Veins within the Five Viscera [the five vital organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys]."

"The Profound Ice Vein Tempering [a cultivation art that uses profound ice to temper spiritual veins] is for harnessing the power of the five Supreme-Grade Earth Veins for my own use."

"And the Gale Bone Erosion [a divine ability that uses gale-force winds to erode and reshape bone marrow] is precisely to allow these five powers to completely merge and become one." Support the author by reading on audio–novel.com.

"As for the incidental benefits gained during this process—the enhanced physical fortitude, the increased resistance to Thunderclap [a thunder-based attack], profound ice, and Gale [a wind-based formation]—they are merely secondary."

Eldrin Chen murmured softly to himself, recalling the cultivation method for the Primordial Indestructible Flesh that he had deduced.

If forging the physical body were likened to crafting a magical artifact, then after absorbing the power of the five Supreme-Grade Earth Veins, his Primordial Indestructible Flesh had taken its initial form.

Yet, at this stage, his body was merely akin to an unrefined vessel blank, forged from the fusion of five types of Immortal Gold [a legendary, supremely durable and spiritually conductive metal used by immortals] treasure materials.

To fuse these five types of Immortal Gold [a legendary metal of supreme purity and resilience] into a single, flawless entity, one must endure countless cycles of hammering and tempering. Only through such relentless forging can a perfect, peerless Treasure Body [a physical form refined to the level of a divine artifact] be ultimately crafted.

In the eyes of Eldrin Chen, the current Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering [an art that uses heavenly thunder to refine and strengthen the physical body] was merely the first step on this arduous path.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen cast his gaze into the depths of the Myriad Tribulation Thunder Abyss [a chasm of endless, world-shattering thunder tribulations]. His expression was one of serene detachment as he spoke, "The seventh layer of this Thunder Abyss [the Abyss of Thunder] can no longer exert any meaningful pressure upon me."

"It is time to advance further and behold the eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss."

As his words faded, Eldrin Chen took a decisive step forward, crossing the threshold into the eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss.

"BOOM—"

Yet, the moment he entered the eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss, several bolts of lightning surged to meet him. The impact was so violent that it sent Eldrin Chen reeling backward, blood spraying from his mouth.

At this critical juncture, Eldrin Chen swiftly activated the Primordial One [the foundational, unified source of all existence] and the Rule of Life Power [a divine law governing the power of life and restoration], channeling their energies to continuously mend his grievous wounds.

But before his body could fully recover, another barrage of Heavenly Thunder Tribulation [the cataclysmic power of heavenly judgment thunder] forces swept across him, once again battering him and sending him flying, blood trailing in his wake.

"Such formidable Heavenly Thunder Tribulation power," he murmured, a flicker of awe amidst the pain.

Facing the relentless assault of the Thunderclap [a powerful thunder-based attack technique], Eldrin Chen hastily urged his Primordial One Rule of Life [a supreme cultivation art focused on the fundamental principle of life] to restore his physical body, his heart filled with immense shock.

Within this eighth layer of the Thunder Abyss [a terrifying realm of endless thunder tribulation], the power contained within each Thunderclap Force [the concentrated destructive energy of a thunderclap] was comparable to a full-force strike from a Middle Stage Earth Immortal [a cultivator who has reached the middle stage of the Earth Immortal realm].

A single such strike might have been manageable, but as dozens of Thunderclap [thunder-based attack techniques] rained down in an unending barrage, even Eldrin Chen's formidable Primordial One Indestructibility Body [a legendary physique said to be nearly unbreakable, forged from the primordial essence of creation] began to falter under the strain.
