Chapter 1410 : Divine Fruits of Ascension

Eldrin Chen spoke, then withdrew several Spirit Fruit [fruits imbued with spiritual energy, beneficial for cultivation] from his sleeve.

Over these years, as the various World-Opening Spiritual Root [a supreme-grade spiritual root capable of supporting a world's foundation] advanced in grade, Eldrin Chen had obtained quite a few rare Immortal Fruit [a fruit of immense spiritual potency, often taking millennia to mature].

Those Immortal Fruit were exceedingly rare, each requiring between thirty thousand to one hundred thousand years to gestate. Among them, the Void Sky Mystic Fruit had been refined by Eldrin Chen, while the Fire Jade Immortal Marrow and Frost Soul Immortal Pear had already been consumed by Yvonne the Violet Consort and Lila.

Of the remaining Spirit Fruit, the Profound Abyss Divine Fruit enhanced the Nascent Soul Immortal Embryo [the nascent soul, the spiritual embryo formed after the Golden Core stage], the Immortal Peach Tree increased Mana [the reservoir of spiritual energy used to cast spells and techniques] cultivation, and the Two Poles Heavenly Light Immortal Fruit could deepen comprehension of light-attribute Divine Ability [a powerful supernatural ability or technique]. All were capable of rapidly boosting their strength.

Thinking of this, Eldrin Chen said, "I will take the Two Poles Heavenly Light Fruit. Perhaps my cultivation can advance another step. You may choose how to distribute the remaining two divine fruits."

Lyra Jiang saw this and directly took the Profound Abyss Divine Fruit.

She had a feeling that once she refined this divine fruit, her Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator, the foundation of one's soul and consciousness] power would see significant enhancement, greatly increasing her combat prowess.

Verdant Consort then took several of the immortal peaches. After this Immortal Peach Tree advanced to the World-Opening Spiritual Root grade, it had begun to show hints of transforming into a Flat Peach. However, legend held that the true Flat Peach was a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Root [a spiritual root of the highest innate quality]; the gap between this peach and that was as vast as heaven and abyss, the difference immense.

According to Eldrin Chen's estimation, an Immortal Peach Tree of the lower-grade World-Opening Spiritual Root level would bear fruit once every thirty thousand Annual Assembly [a conventional unit of time, one year], yielding three immortal peaches each time.

These peaches were rich in the purest Primordial Source [the fundamental, primordial energy from which all things originate] substance, formed from the power of the Void [the concept of emptiness or non-being, a profound Daoist principle] dimension. The total lifetime cultivation energy of an ordinary Ninth Level of Ascension to Immortality [the ninth and final stage of the Ascension to Immortality realm] cultivator likely could not match the vast and refined energy contained within a single one of these peaches.

However, the Earth Immortal World [the inner world cultivated by an Earth Immortal Progenitor] opened by an Earth Immortal Progenitor [a cultivator who has ascended to the Earth Immortal realm, possessing a vast inner world] is far too vast. Even after refining such a precious Flat Peach [a legendary celestial fruit that grants immense longevity and cultivation power], it is difficult for one's cultivation base to experience a massive increase.

According to Eldrin Chen's estimation, an ordinary Earth Immortal Progenitor could save roughly ten thousand years of cultivation by refining a single Flat Peach. They would likely need to refine about ten such fruits to advance to the next layer of their realm.

Yet, Eldrin Chen's Earth Immortal World is exceptionally expansive. Merely refining a Flat Peach would likely require close to fifty fruits for him to achieve a single breakthrough in cultivation.

Verdant Consort [a title for a powerful female cultivator] has opened a Ten-Layered Heaven [a particularly profound and stable type of Earth Immortal World]. Even after refining three Flat Peach, she found it difficult to achieve a significant breakthrough.

Nevertheless, after refining them, the power of heaven and earth [the fundamental energies of creation] within her body would increase considerably, undoubtedly granting her greater confidence in future battles.

Seeing that among the three precious fruits, only Nyssa Qu did not have one, Eldrin Chen spoke up, "I have no more of the precious fruits on hand. You may choose one item from the Three Thousand Stars [a mysterious artifact], the Pure Yang Celestial Sword [a divine sword imbued with pure Yang energy], or the Liufeng [a divine ability or treasure] gourd, my lady."

"There is no need,"

Nyssa Qu shook her head, then smiled faintly. "I possess the Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Sword [a legendary sword famed for slaying spirits and demons], which is sufficient to handle any foe." "However, Husband, you must promise me that the Inner Core [the condensed essence and power core of a demon beast] from the Great Wilderness Celestial Alligator [a primordial and powerful species of demonic alligator] lineage will still be given to me for sword sacrifice [a ritual to empower a magical weapon]."

"I understand."

Eldrin Chen nodded, a subtle ripple of thought stirring within his heart.

In years past, Eldrin Chen procured a method for refining a set of Immortal Sword [divine blades wielded by powerful cultivators] for Nyssa Qu at a Barter Convention. This method was known as the Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Sword. The swords of this set manifested in seven colors—crimson, orange, yellow, green, azure, blue, and violet—each forged from a corresponding [a rare, spiritually attuned metal used in crafting supreme artifacts].

As a complete set of Immortal Sword, their power was nearly unrivaled within their tier even in their embryonic, unrefined state. Wielding them, one could dominate their peers, finding few who could stand as equals.

However, to perfect these swords, they required tempering with the spiritual essences of seven specific Primordial Desolate Spirits: the Mystic Turtle, the Great Roc, the Black Serpent, the Verdant Goat, the Celestial Alligator, the Desolate Ape, and the Primordial Tiger.

Long ago, Eldrin Chen had slain the Boundless Black Serpent, securing one of these required Primordial Desolate Spirits for her.

Furthermore, Divine Lord Glaze had journeyed across the Azure Firmament Immortal Domain on her behalf, successfully obtaining three more: the spirits of the Verdant Sun, the Great Roc, and the Desolate Ape. Thus, only three remained: the Western Metal Grand Tiger, the Great Wilderness Celestial Alligator, and the North Sea Mystic Turtle.

And the clan they were now at odds with, the Great Wilderness Alligator Clan, were precisely the pure-blooded descendants of the Great Wilderness Celestial Alligator.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "Once we vanquish the Great Wilderness Celestial Alligator and acquire the spirits of the Western Metal Grand Tiger and the North Sea Mystic Turtle, your combat prowess, my lady, will likely reign supreme and unchallenged among your peers."

Nyssa Qu shook her head upon hearing this. "The Immortal Domain [a realm of higher cultivation and immortal beings] holds many formidable powers, and Heaven's Chosen [prodigies blessed by fate] are beyond counting. There will always be those with extraordinary means." "Moreover, while the Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Sword possesses immense power, it can be countered by treasures imbued with the power of [a mysterious force that can disrupt or control metal and spiritual energies]."

Eldrin Chen nodded in agreement. It was undeniable that the Glazed Blessed Land truly possessed staggering wealth and resources.

Nyssa Qu's set of Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Swords had been infused by the Glazed Blessed Land with seven strands of World-Initiating Qi [primordial energy from the dawn of creation], elevating each blade into the realm of World-Opening Treasure [artifacts of immense power capable of shaping reality]. When the seven swords combined into the Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Sword Formation, their combined might could even pose a threat to a Late Stage Earth Immortal [a cultivator who has reached the advanced stage of the Earth Immortal realm, a being of immense power].

With this thought, Eldrin Chen felt a slight sense of resolve settle within him. He opened his mouth and spoke, "Since that is the case, let us cultivate in seclusion for a time. Once Lila and Yvonne the Violet Consort achieve their breakthroughs in cultivation, we shall proceed with our plan."

Having said all that needed to be said, none of them spoke further. They returned to the Cultivation Cave [a secluded chamber for focused meditation and cultivation] and began their closed-door cultivation to refine their Divine Ability [a supernatural power or technique derived from profound cultivation].

Within his secluded cultivation chamber, Eldrin Chen retrieved the Two Poles Heavenly Light Fruit [a legendary fruit containing the condensed essence of celestial auroras]. This treasure held the potential to bring about a transformation in his Divine Ability, specifically his Lifebound Divine Ability [a divine ability intrinsically linked to a cultivator's life force and cultivation path], the Five-Colored Divine Radiance [a divine light technique embodying the power of the five elements].

With this thought, Eldrin Chen immediately consumed the Immortal Fruit [a fruit of profound spiritual and mystical properties] and began to meditate, his eyes lowered in deep contemplation.

The moment the Immortal Fruit was consumed, Eldrin Chen felt an endless surge of aurora power erupt within him. Countless auroras, each a manifestation of Rule Power [the fundamental power of a cosmic law or principle], illuminated the heavens in a dazzling display.

His consciousness drifted freely within an endless Long River [a metaphorical river representing the flow of time, fate, or cosmic principles] of rules, touching upon this boundless power of heaven and earth. "Fast. Incredibly fast," he thought. Read the full novel exclusively on audio-novel . com.

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, a flicker of astonishment passing through his eyes. For the first time, he felt he had gravely underestimated the Five Elements Divine Radiance [the divine radiance technique of the five elements], this particular Divine Ability.

What is light?

If someone had asked him this before, he would have surely answered:

Gathering and dispersing at will, shrinking and expanding as desired, illuminating the myriad heavens, visible yet intangible.

But only now did Eldrin Chen comprehend that these were not the true essence of the Law of Light.

Its true profundity lay in speed—extreme speed, a velocity so great it could be seen but not touched, the supreme swiftness under heaven.

In this context, the Five-Colored Divine Radiance, focusing solely on seizing treasures, was not exactly putting the cart before the horse, but it had lost its most crucial, fundamental truth.

In truth, the reason the Five-Colored Divine Radiance could seize others' treasures also lay in its speed.

With the velocity of the Five-Colored Divine Radiance, combined with its inherent restraint over the power of the Heaven and Earth Five Elements, it could, in the fleeting instant before an opponent could react, instantly seize any object composed of Heaven and Earth Five Elements energies.

"So this is the Law of Light—the aurora that illuminates the myriad heavens, the fleeting, transcendent radiance?" "Viewed thus, the Five-Colored Divine Radiance can be further evolved into another wondrous application."

Eldrin Chen murmured softly, then, guided by the subtle intuition born of his sudden enlightenment, began to re-derive and modify the Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Radiance. Thus, Time slipped away like sand through fingers, and in the blink of an eye, several hundred years of Time had passed. It was not until this day that Eldrin Chen finally let out a slow, measured breath.

"It is done."

Rousing from his secluded cultivation, Eldrin Chen slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of satisfaction dancing within their depths.

Although refining the Yin-Yang Aurora Fruit brought no advancement in his cultivation base this time, it allowed the Five Elements Divine Radiance to ascend to a higher level of mastery.

The Grand Five Elements Pure Yang Divine Radiance [a supreme divine ability that harnesses the five elements and pure yang energy] now, much like the Primordial Unity Qi [the foundational energy of creation and unity], possesses two distinct transformative states.
