Chapter 1095 : The Supreme Immortal Legacy

Speaking of this, Eldrin Chen could not help but reveal a bitter smile.

Primordial Unity Refined Gold is a supreme-grade Immortal Gold [a rare metal imbued with immortal energy], comparable even to treasures like Dragon-Patterned Black Gold. Even a small amount of Primordial Unity Adamantine is exceedingly precious.

The value of a Supreme-Grade Immortal Root [the highest quality spiritual root, the pinnacle of acquired spiritual foundations] is utterly staggering. As the ultimate limit of Acquired Spiritual Root [a spiritual foundation acquired through cultivation or treasures], it is the supreme treasure for forging a Fourth-Level Celestial Pillar [the fourth-tier foundation pillar for an Earth Immortal's grotto-heaven].

Its worth surpasses that of a Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure by several times, making it incredibly rare to find. Therefore, most Earth Immortal [immortals who have opened their own grotto-heaven realms] use a Fourth-Level Celestial Pillar forged from merely a High Grade Immortal Root when they make their breakthrough.

Though Eldrin Chen had been an immortal for thousands of years, he had never once laid eyes on a Supreme-Grade Immortal Root, a testament to its profound rarity.

Seeing that replicating the treasures was impossible, Prison-Suppressor Child spoke up.

"Since we cannot obtain Primordial Unity Golden Foil Paper [a legendary paper used for recording supreme scriptures], nor do we have Scripture Transmission Paper [special paper for recording cultivation arts] of Supreme-Grade Immortal Artifact [the highest grade of immortal artifact] caliber, let us divide these seven scrolls of Immortal Scripture [scriptures containing immortal-level cultivation arts] among ourselves."

"It seems we have no other choice," Eldrin Chen agreed.

He nodded, then picked up the seven supreme-grade Immortal Scripture scrolls to examine them.

These seven Immortal Scripture scrolls were all foundational legacies of the Polarity Immortal Sect, with three of them being cultivation techniques. Find this and other novels at audio_novel.com.

These three volumes of Immortal Scripture were respectively titled "The Supreme Lunar Soul Refinement Art," "The Solar Body Forging Art," and "The Polarity Primordial Void Scripture."

After reading them, Eldrin Chen could not help but praise, "The three Half-Step Earth Immortal patriarchs of the Polarity Blessed Land truly are individuals of Extraordinary talent and insight."

"Indeed," Prison-Suppressor Child nodded in agreement before continuing, "This Primordial Solar Body Refinement Scripture possesses quite unique and profound insights."

It turned out these three methods each represented a distinct path to achieving the Earth Immortal realm.

The Supreme Lunar Spirit Refinement Art primarily cultivated the soul and the Path Fruit [the condensed essence of a cultivator's chosen Dao]. It could coalesce Supreme Lunar Moonlight Essence [a spiritual essence refined from the power of the supreme moon] to forge an Immortal Embryo Path Fruit [a nascent Path Fruit with the potential to become an Immortal's foundation]. Ultimately, this would allow the Path Fruit to transcend the Ascendant Immortal Limit [the upper boundary of the Ascendant Immortal realm], thereby granting a glimpse into the Earth Immortal Realm.

This method could assist a cultivator in refining their soul, making it an exceedingly profound art. Furthermore, it documented the formula for a top-tier Immortal Rank Divine Abilities and the crafting method for a Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure.

That Divine Ability was named 'Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Divine Light.' It could seize the souls and Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] of Immortals, making it an Immortal Rank Divine Abilities specifically designed to counter soul-based cultivation.

The Immortal Treasure was named 'Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Bell.' It was said to specialize in countering a cultivator's Primordial Spirit and soul, also ranking as an immensely powerful Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure.

"Legends say that the Supreme Lunar Patriarch of the ancient Polarity Immortal Sect was also a figure of stunning talent and brilliance."

"In her time, after breaking through to the Half-Step Earth Immortal Realm, even Earth Immortal Patriarchs had to treat her with serious caution when she wielded the Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Divine Light and the Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Bell."

Gazing upon this scroll of Immortal Scripture [a profound text containing esoteric cultivation methods], Prison-Suppressor Child spoke with a detached tone, sighing a moment later, "A pity. To protect Polarity Patriarch, he perished at the hands of that one. Otherwise, he would surely have broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm [the realm of Earth Immortals, a powerful stage of cultivation]."

Eldrin Chen nodded slightly in agreement. This Supreme Lunar Soul Refinement Art [a supreme art for refining and empowering the soul using lunar essence] could indeed be considered a peerless Immortal Scripture.

Even mastering just the 'Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Divine Light' [a divine radiance capable of capturing and controlling souls] would be enough to dominate the world.

And if one also possessed the Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Bell [a magical bell that resonates with the soul-seizing light], its power would be truly awe-inspiring.

Imagine it: simply lifting the 'Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Bell' and giving it a gentle shake would cause the soul of an ordinary Immortal [a being who has ascended to immortality] to leave their body. Then, with a sweep of the 'Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Divine Light', one could effortlessly capture and control them.

"The Five Elements Divine Light [a divine light that can absorb objects aligned with the five elements] can capture things of the Five Elements [the fundamental elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth]. But the Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Divine Light specifically targets the soul-spirit. Against Immortal Embryo [the nascent stage of an immortal's development] and Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core and highest essence of a cultivator] cultivators, it is even more effective than the Five Elements Divine Light. I should cultivate it when I find the time."

"A pity that after the fall of Supreme Lunar Patriarch, the Supreme Lunar Soul-Seizing Bell fell into another's hands. It would be exceedingly difficult to forge another now."

Unlike the 'Supreme Lunar Soul Refinement Art', the 'Solar Body Forging Art' [an art for tempering the physical body using solar essence] is a method of Fleshly Body Sanctification [the process of refining and purifying the mortal flesh into an immortal vessel].

This art draws upon the power of the sun to temper the physical body, a process requiring six times six—thirty-six—thousand years to complete. Once mastered, it surpasses the 'Acquired Solar Divine Body' [a powerful physical constitution forged through cultivation, embodying solar power] of the Ascendant Immortal Realm [a high realm of immortal cultivation].

The 'Solar Divine Body' [a divine constitution of pure solar essence], like Exquisite Jiang's Supreme Lunar Immortal Body [a supreme immortal constitution of pure lunar essence], is among the most exalted of Immortal Body [a perfected physical form achieved through immortal cultivation].

This type of Divine Body is exceptionally domineering. Once cultivated, it manifests like a great sun dominating the heavens, possessing the most fearsome Power of Oblivion.

In ancient times, the Solar Patriarch cultivated the 'Solar Divine Body'. In the path of physical body cultivation, he had even reached the very limits of the Great Completion Immortal Body and, surpassing that boundary, advanced one step further.

Furthermore, this cultivation manual also records a Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure named the 'Solar Divine Pagoda'.

It is said that the ancient Solar Patriarch, after forging the Solar Divine Pagoda, used this treasure to suppress peerless foes, refine world-ending great demons, and even withstand assaults from Earth Immortal Patriarch.

Logically, with the 'Solar Divine Body' and the 'Solar Divine Pagoda', the Polarity Patriarch possessed the potential to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm.

Yet, in order to protect the Polarity Patriarch on his path, he ultimately fell at the hands of that Seven Tribulations Immortal. For more chapters, visit audio–novel.com for the complete novel.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen could not help but draw a deep breath and remark, "Both the Solar Patriarch and the Supreme Lunar Patriarch were figures with the potential to reach Earth Immortal. It is truly lamentable that they succumbed within the Great Tribulation."

"Is that Great Tribulation truly so terrifying?"

Hearing this, Prison-Suppressor Child's expression remained unperturbed.

He seemed to possess some knowledge on the matter. After a moment of contemplation, he spoke, "A Seven Tribulations Earth Immortal is an exceedingly rare occurrence across the ages. Within the entire Western Essence Divine Abyss Sea, only a handful exist. Naturally, its attainment is a feat of immense difficulty."

"And moreover..."

Prison-Suppressor Child paused, then after a moment shook his head and said, "What Polarity Patriarch said on his deathbed was correct."

"The Immortals [powerful beings who have transcended mortality] point the way, the Great Encompassing [the highest echelons of cultivation] vie for the Path, and the seats of Sainthood are finite in number."

"Both the Supreme Lunar [the ultimate principle of the moon and yin] and the Solar [the ultimate principle of the sun and yang] are supreme Great Paths [fundamental cosmic laws or principles], and the number of Immortals who walk these paths is beyond counting."

"Yet the authority over the Path Principles [the fundamental laws governing a specific Great Path] of the Supreme Lunar and Solar [the dual ultimate principles of moon and sun] has its limits. The more you claim for yourself, the less naturally remains for others."

Prison-Suppressor Child seemed to have an Extraordinary origin, possessing a background of astonishing depth. The cultivation mysteries he knew were far beyond what Eldrin Chen could compare to.

As Prison-Suppressor Child spoke in detail, Eldrin Chen learned for the first time the true, hidden secrets of cultivation within the Immortal Realm [the higher plane of existence where Immortals reside], and his expression gradually grew profoundly grave.

It turned out that Immortals, through their Path Principles Comprehension [the profound understanding of a specific cosmic law], wield Path Principles Power [the power derived from comprehending a Path Principle], yet they too must contend and wrestle with one another for it.

Setting aside the limited number of Saintly seats upon the Heavenly Path [the supreme cosmic law], merely reaching the end of a single Great Path and its associated Path Principles is destined to involve terrifying contention.

And what the multitude of Immortals contend for is naturally the authority, the very power, of those Path Principles and their Great Path.

Three thousand Great Path [the fundamental cosmic principles or laws that define a cultivation discipline] each can lead one to sagehood, yet for a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [the pinnacle realm of immortal cultivation, representing a state of near-omnipotence within a defined cosmic framework] to advance a single step further, one must gradually master the Great Path they cultivate.

For instance, many Great Encompassing Golden Immortal cultivate the Solar Great Path [the cosmic principle governing the sun, light, and yang energy]. However, for an Solar Immortal Lord [an immortal lord who has attained mastery over the Solar Great Path] to ascend beyond, he must gather the authority over the Solar Great Path into his own grasp.

For other Great Encompassing Golden Immortal, if the Great Path they primarily cultivate is wholly controlled by another, the continuation of their own cultivation journey hangs upon the other's whim.

In the contention for a Great Path, there is no path of retreat.

One must either relinquish the authority to command that Great Path and turn to cultivate other Great Path and Path Principles [the specific doctrines, techniques, and manifestations derived from a Great Path], or be forced into a life-or-death struggle with their rival.

"Three thousand Great Path, countless billions of Path Principles."

"The Supreme Lunar and Solar [the dual cosmic principles of the ultimate moon (yin) and sun (yang), representing a supreme cultivation path] is indeed a path of supreme power, yet the number of Immortal [a general term for beings who have achieved immortality through cultivation] who walk it is exceedingly vast."

Prison-Suppressor Child spoke at length, finally shaking his head and saying, "The Supreme Lunar [the cosmic principle of the ultimate moon, representing pure yin essence] Patriarch and the Solar Patriarch were indeed geniuses whose talent shook the heavens, yet they chose a path they should not have trodden."
