Chapter 1506 : Alliance of the Glazed Realm

Upon hearing this, Divine Lord Glaze could not help but reveal a trace of astonishment.

She glanced at Eldrin Chen and then said with a faint smile, "Borrowing a path through the Yin Plane Microcosm [a microcosmic realm governed by Yin energies], relying on its Formation [a complex array or defensive structure powered by spiritual energy] to launch a surprise assault and seize treasures from within the Minor Universe [a self-contained, smaller dimensional realm] is indeed an excellent strategy."

"Since that is the case, I shall accompany you and infiltrate the Minor Universe together." Seeing Divine Lord Glaze agree, Eldrin Chen felt a slight sense of relief settle within him.

Based on past experience, the number of Late Stage Earth Immortal [cultivators who have reached the late stage of the Earth Immortal realm] entering this Minor Universe would likely exceed one thousand, while those at the Half-Step Celestial Immortal Realm [cultivators on the very cusp of ascending to the Celestial Immortal realm] would number at least thirty or more.

Facing such a multitude of powerhouses, the difficulty for Eldrin Chen to stand out from among them and seize the truly priceless and rare treasures was, in truth, still considerable.

Only by allying with Zixuan the Daoist and Divine Lord Glaze, these two Taiyi Realm [the Taiyi realm, a profound stage of cultivation] powerhouses, would he have a greater chance of successfully obtaining the treasures.

Subsequently, Eldrin Chen and Divine Lord Glaze agreed upon a date for departure and discussed some finer details before he finally took his leave from the Glazed Blessed Land.

Not long after his departure, Divine Lord Glaze offered a slight bow towards the screen behind her and inquired, "What does the Ancient Ancestor think of this individual?"

A moment of silence emanated from behind the screen, and then a woman of peerless beauty, clad in a violet gown, emerged.

Behind her head, thirty-six violet divine halos, representing the Six Paths [the six paths of reincarnation in Buddhist cosmology], coiled and shimmered, as if radiating boundless Merit Power [the power derived from accumulated virtuous deeds and karma] that was Illuminating All Heavens [a divine ability or aura said to illuminate all realms of existence].

"This child is somewhat inscrutable to me as well, yet I perceive his fortune is vast and boundless, yet concentrated and un-scattered; it is most likely anchored by Innate Marvels [miraculous objects born of heaven and earth that can stabilize one's destiny]."

"And judging by innate talent alone, he is also of the highest caliber. It seems he is indeed a worthy match for Nyssa."

Divine Lord Glaze observed this and inquired, "Then, Your intention—do you wish to bring Nyssa back with you?" The violet-skirted woman pondered briefly, then shook her head. "Although I did not travel aboard an Ancient Vessel [ancient, powerful ships capable of traversing the void] this time, I still risked crossing the Primordial Chaos [the formless, primordial state before creation, filled with chaotic energies] to come here."

"But several hundred thousand years have passed. Those with ill intent have likely already detected my departure."

"If I were to bring Nyssa back now, it would only expose her. It is better to let her remain within the Immortal Domain [a vast realm inhabited by immortals and cultivators] for the time being."

"The Azure Firmament Immortal Domain currently does not harbor many supreme powerhouses. There is little risk of encountering a Great Luo Golden Immortal [a supreme immortal who has attained the pinnacle of the Great Luo realm, a state of ultimate unity with the Dao]. I shall remain hidden in the shadows to safeguard her path. This may prove to be the safer course."

Divine Lord Glaze nodded in understanding upon hearing this, well aware of the terrifying prowess of the one before her.

She was a renowned powerhouse even within the Ancestral Land [the sacred homeland of a race or clan] of the Immortal Clam Race. As long as she remained within the Azure Firmament Immortal Domain, Nyssa Qu's safety would be greatly assured.

Considering this, Divine Lord Glaze asked further, "And what of the matter concerning the Minor Universe [a self-contained, smaller cosmos within the greater multiverse]...?"

The violet-skirted woman did not reply verbally. She vanished into the Boundless Void [the infinite, empty space between worlds], and only then did her voice drift back. "Our clan's current situation is precarious. Those forces will not stand idly by and allow us to gain another Great Luo Golden Immortal."

"Therefore, I cannot reveal myself lightly. Once exposed, I must be prepared to depart with Nyssa."

"It is merely a Minor Universe [a small, self-contained cosmos], with at most one or two low-grade Innate Treasure [a treasure born from the primordial chaos of the universe]. Let them fight over it." "......"

Meanwhile, Eldrin Chen departed from the Abyssal Abode of Bliss [a blessed land of profound spiritual energy].

He returned directly to the Flowing Fire Star Palace [a celestial palace associated with flowing fire stars], and then, utilizing the power of the Void Gate [a portal that traverses the void between spaces], he arrived instantly outside the Violet Firmament Dao Palace [a grand palace of the Dao under the violet heavens].

Upon meeting Zixuan the Daoist, Eldrin Chen also recounted the entire matter to him.

After listening, Zixuan the Daoist felt a surge of excitement and could not help but say, "If we enter by hiding within the Yin Plane Microcosm [a miniature cosmos aligned with the Yin aspect of reality], others will not know we have stepped inside. They would never think to scheme against us there."

"Moreover, as long as we conceal our auras, we can catch them off guard at the critical moment."

At this point, Zixuan the Daoist agreed to Eldrin Chen's proposal to enter together via the Yin Plane Microcosm. Seeing Zixuan the Daoist's agreement, Eldrin Chen felt a slight sense of reassurance settle within him.

Now, with Divine Lord Glaze invited and Zixuan the Daoist joining the fray, their side's combat power would be equivalent to at least three or four Half-Step Celestial Immortal [cultivators who have nearly ascended to the Celestial Immortal realm].

Coupled with the grand formation of the Yin Plane Microcosm, Eldrin Chen reckoned it was worth the risk to venture for the Universe Origin Treasure [a treasure containing the primordial essence of a universe], even against such formidable odds.

With this thought in mind, Eldrin Chen spoke: "Since that is the case, let us enter the Yin Plane Microcosm [a miniature, lower-dimensional world of Yin energy] one Millennium [a grand cycle of one thousand years] ahead of schedule and rendezvous there."

Time flowed swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, eight millennia had elapsed.

When those eight millennia had passed, within the Ancient Ruins Ghost City [a spectral city built upon ancient ruins], the nine Earth Immortal Progenitors [powerful cultivators who have ascended to the Earth Immortal realm] of the Chen Immortal Clan gathered. Sky Abyss Daoist, Ancient Ruins Yin Lord, Zixuan the Daoist, and Divine Lord Glaze had also arrived at this place.

"Everyone is assembled."

Seeing that all were present, Eldrin Chen felt a subtle stirring within his heart.

Compared to their last venture into the Yin Plane Microcosm, the strength of each Earth Immortal Progenitor seated here had grown not insignificantly. Read the full novel exclusively on (audio-novel.com).

Setting aside Zixuan the Daoist and Divine Lord Glaze, as well as Eldrin Chen and Lyra Jiang for the moment, the remaining individuals had all cultivated to the Earth Immortal Sixth Layer [the sixth stage of the Earth Immortal realm], marking substantial progress in their power.

Among them, the combat prowess of both Nyssa Qu and Verdant Consort had reached the threshold of Earth Immortal Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Earth Immortal realm]. The others lagged slightly behind by half a step, yet all possessed strength at the level of an Eighth Level Earth Immortal [an Earth Immortal at the eighth stage].

Seven individuals with Eighth Level Earth Immortal strength, and two with combat power rivaling the Earth Immortal Nine Layers [the ninth and final stage of the Earth Immortal realm].

"Adding myself, Lyra, Zixuan the Daoist, and Divine Lord Glaze to their number," Eldrin calculated inwardly, "our combined force should be equivalent to at least three or four Half-Step Celestial Immortals [cultivators who stand on the very brink of ascending to the Celestial Immortal realm]."

After a moment of silent contemplation, Eldrin Chen spoke, "Since everyone is assembled, we should not delay. Let us depart immediately."

Upon hearing this, the group immediately set off for the Yin Plane Microcosm [a miniature realm of pure Yin energy, the counterpart to the Yang world].

They traversed the Void [the empty space between realms] and soon arrived within the Yin Plane Microcosm.

Within the Yin Plane Microcosm now stood a fully formed Formation [a magical array or defensive structure], its foundation laid upon billions upon billions of stars.

This was a Super Composite Grand Formation, composed of three hundred billion Netherworld Stars [stars imbued with the essence of the underworld]. Upon each of these stars rested a subsidiary Formation.

To complete this grand construct, they had dispatched a full three thousand Divine Spirits [powerful spiritual beings] who labored for nearly two hundred thousand years to see it finished.

"A formation within a formation, with three hundred billion stars serving as its Formation Eye [the core nodes of the array], anchored by four Blessed Land [lands of exceptional spiritual fortune] and one Supreme Grade Abode of Bliss [a paradise of the highest spiritual grade]," Nyssa Qu murmured, her voice filled with awe. "A super Formation of such scale."

"Its defensive power should be sufficient to withstand an assault from a Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a peak-level immortal of the Heavenly Realm]," she concluded.

Nyssa Qu paused, then added, "If facing a Heaven Immortal [an immortal who has ascended to the Heavenly Realm] of the Dragon King of the Western Abyss's caliber, this formation should be able to hold for a not insignificant duration."

Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod of agreement. His gaze then turned towards the heart of the Stygian River Star System [a starry river named for the mythical underworld river]. "The passageway to the Yang world," he stated, "has long since been cleared and prepared by my orders."

"And we have dispatched some individuals to gather intelligence on the Yang Plane Microcosm [a small, self-contained universe imbued with Yang energy]." At this point, Eldrin Chen waved his hand dismissively.

Lyra Jiang understood his intent and distributed a report to everyone present.

Taking the report and glancing through it, the group could not help but reveal looks of relief.

The current intelligence provided a rather detailed depiction of the power structure within the Yang Plane Microcosm.

Within this Minor Universe [a smaller, subsidiary realm within the greater cosmos], there are roughly three hundred thousand Immortal Deities. Among them, those revered as Sages—Eighth Rank Powerhouse [cultivators who have attained the eighth major realm of power]—number approximately nine thousand.

As for the true powerhouses, the Yang Plane Microcosm is home to eighteen Half-Step Celestial Immortal [cultivators on the very threshold of becoming true Celestial Immortals]. These eighteen Taiyi Realm [the Taiyi Realm, a profound stage of cultivation] experts are respectively honored with the titles of Celestial Emperor [the supreme ruler], Three Sovereigns [the three primordial sovereigns], Four Spirits [the four divine beasts], and Ten Direction Great Emperors [the ten emperors who rule the cardinal and intercardinal directions].
