Chapter 1575 : The Primordial Sword's Stellar Might

"Then we have no choice but to take the risk," Eldrin Chen declared.

Xuan Yu the Immortal spoke, and with a flick of his sleeve, a sky full of starry sand scattered across the firmament, coalescing once more into a dazzling Immortal Sword [a sword of immense power wielded by immortal beings].

This sword seemed forged from the convergence of countless stars, shifting between a state of dispersion and unity. When scattered, it became a sky full of stars, each possessing the power to slay immortals and vanquish gods. When gathered, it condensed into a peerless weapon of slaughter.

"It's the Primordial Immortal Sword... the Nine Heavens Milky Way Star Sand Sword," someone identified it.

Vajra Arhat [an enlightened Buddhist monk of great power] narrowed his eyes, recognizing the sword's origin. He immediately pressed his palms together and said, "So be it. We must venture deep within and risk battle." *Clang!*

Before Vajra Arhat's words had fully faded, a sword cry that shook the Nine Heavens [the highest celestial realms] reverberated.

The Nine Heavens Milky Way Star Sand Sword possessed an extraordinary origin. It was forged by a great power of the Immortal Domain [the realm of immortals] who gathered Nine Heavens Milky Way Star Sand Immortal Ore [a celestial ore of starry essence] and refined it through sacred rites.

This sword could disperse and gather at will. Scattered, it could purge hordes of demons, making it a supreme treasure for mass combat. Gathered, it could condense into a blade capable of slaying immortals and gods, possessing the power to eradicate all Nine Heavens Immortal Demons [demonic beings of the highest heavens]. It could be considered a Supreme Taiyi Immortal Weapon [a weapon of the highest immortal grade, embodying the primordial unity].

Now, as Xuan Yu Star Lord [the Star Lord Xuan Yu] channeled his power into the Nine Heavens Milky Way Star Sand Sword, unleashing a single devastating slash, boundless Sword Qi [the sharp, condensed energy projected from a sword] cleaved through the sky full of starry Ronan [a name, likely referring to a celestial phenomenon or entity], actually tearing a massive rent in the Heavenly Demon Star System Grand Formation [a grand defensive array formed by demonic stars].

"Charge in!" Original publication: audio - novel . com - The source of this chapter.

Without the slightest hesitation, the group immediately charged into the Heaven-Demon Star System.

The very moment they entered the formation, they felt an immense and boundless power assailing them.

Eldrin Chen looked up and saw a vast and majestic formation diagram enveloping the heavens and earth in the endless Firmament. Suspended upside-down upon it were three demonic swords, poised to utterly annihilate them all in a single strike.

"Trouble! It's the Three Demons Immortal-Slaughtering Sword Formation [a legendary and lethally potent demonic sword formation]!"

Vajra Arhat channeled his full power into the World-Opening Treasure [a supreme treasure of immense power], barely withstanding the assault of the three killing swords. His expression turned gravely serious as he declared, "Once this formation is deployed, it cannot be overcome without the combined might of three Taiyi [a supreme cultivation realm] experts."

Hearing this, the faces of everyone present shifted slightly.

In that split second of lightning-fast thought, Zixuan the Daoist spoke decisively: "The three of us shall enter the formation. Fellow Daoist Xuan Yu, first slay the great enemy, then come to our aid." As his words fell, Vajra Arhat, Separated Flame Deity, and Zixuan the Daoist all surged into action, entering the formation to hold back the Three Demons Immortal-Slaughtering Sword Formation.

"BOOM!"

At that same instant, from the boundless expanse between heaven and earth, a vast and ancient Ancient Bell descended, seeking to suppress them all. This bell was the supreme treasure of the Demonic Path—the 'Heavenly Demon Bell' [a supreme demonic bell artifact]. It was the Bodyguard Supreme Treasure [a cultivator's most vital, life-bound magical treasure] of the Demon Sovereign [a title for a supreme demonic ruler], and was shockingly also a Taiyi Demonic Treasure [a demonic treasure of the Taiyi realm]. Now, empowered by the Formation, it crashed down upon them with overwhelming force, forcing Xuan Yu the Immortal to devote his full strength to resisting it. "Kill them!"

And in that very moment, the skies of the Heaven-Demon Star Domain erupted with a deafening roar of battle cries.

In that instant, over three hundred Demonic Path Earth Immortals [powerful demonic cultivators who have attained the Earth Immortal realm] took action simultaneously. Among them, fifteen Earth Immortal Nine Layers [Earth Immortals at the peak of the ninth layer] Heaven-Demon [a powerful and ancient race of celestial demons] surged forward, seeking to trap and slaughter the group within the grand formation.

"Hold nothing back!"

Witnessing this scene, Eldrin Chen could not help but let a trace of frost cross his countenance.

They were currently trapped within the formation, forced to contend against the entire Heavenly Demon Star System Grand Formation [a vast and potent stellar array woven by demonic powers]. With their strength being drained while the enemy's waxed, any attempt to hold back could lead to grievous losses with a single misstep.

Thus, without a moment's hesitation, the group immediately unleashed their full might.

On this battlefield, Xuan Yu the Daoist and Vajra Arhat [an Arhat renowned for his diamond-like, indestructible body] had also brought a number of Earth Immortal [cultivators who have transcended mortality to become terrestrial immortals]. However, Immortal [beings who have ascended to a higher state of existence] were scarce in the starry void, and they were significantly outnumbered. In a true confrontation, they would likely be far outmatched.

Fortunately, the prowess of Eldrin Chen and his four companions was Valerius [peerless, extraordinary], far exceeding what the Demon Sovereign [a supreme ruler among demonic forces] had anticipated.

In a flash, Eldrin Chen made his move. With a sweep of his sleeve, he summoned the Heavenly Separated Twin Swords [a pair of divine swords capable of cleaving heaven itself]. Their light swept across the starry expanse, and within the span of mere exchanges, over ten Earth Immortal fell like melons and vegetables before a blade.

Even a Earth Immortal Nine Layers, after clashing for little more than ten moves, was slain on the spot by Eldrin Chen. "This is bad!"

"Form the battle array, now!"

Witnessing the astonishing combat prowess displayed by Eldrin Chen, the Demonic Path Earth Immortals sensed the situation turning dire and immediately began forming battle formations. In the blink of an eye, twelve Demonic PathEarth Immortal Great Perfection cultivators joined forces, conjuring a Twelve Primordial Demonic Scions Grand Formation.

This Twelve Primordial Hour Pearls Demonic Scion Grand Formation possessed extraordinary power. Driven by the combined might of twelve Earth Immortal Great Perfection cultivators, it was potent enough to withstand a Half-Step Celestial Immortal with a Single Taiyi Foundation. At the very least, an ordinary Half-Step Celestial Immortal with a Primordial Foundation would find it exceedingly difficult to breach and slay them one by one.

Even for Eldrin Chen, without resorting to his hidden trump cards, forcibly shattering this Formation would be a formidable challenge. "We cannot afford to delay," he thought.

Seeing the unfavorable turn of events, a slight frown creased Eldrin Chen's brow.

His gaze turned icy in an instant, and he exchanged a meaningful look with Verdant Consort and the others.

In that same heartbeat, the four of them acted, unleashing their ultimate, reserved trump cards. Support the author by reading on audio–novel.com.

Instantly, Lila's Frost Phoenix Coalescing Heaven Wheel, Yvonne the Violet Consort's Infernal Prison Divine Attendant Sword, Verdant Consort's Azure Dragon Stirring the Sea Sword, and Nyssa Qu's Seven Ultimate Spirit-Slaying Sword shot forth in a devastating symphony of power.

The annihilating might of four World-Opening Supreme Treasure Grade weapons crashed upon the Formation.

Such an assault could not be withstood—not by a mere Formation, and perhaps not even by a Half-Step Celestial Immortal.

The grand formation shattered in an instant. All twelve Earth Immortal Great Perfection cultivators were sent flying, blood spraying from their mouths, each sustaining grievous wounds. *Clang!*

At that very moment, Eldrin Chen channeled the Heavenly Separated Twin Swords [a pair of legendary immortal swords], their power surging forth to dominate the battlefield.

In a flash, the killing light of the two peerless Immortal Sword [swords of immortal grade] crisscrossed, severing six Earth Immortal Great Perfection [cultivators at the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal realm] and utterly shattering the Twelve Primordial Demonic Scions Grand Formation [a grand formation summoning the power of twelve primordial demonic entities]. Nyssa Qu and Verdant Consort pressed the advantage, and in the time it takes to draw a breath, they had slain the six grievously wounded Earth Immortal Great Perfection.

"Six Heaven-Opening Supreme Treasure [treasures of supreme power capable of cleaving the heavens]..."

Above in the Firmament [the highest heavens], the watching Earth Immortal Progenitor [progenitors of the Earth Immortal realm] all drew sharp, cold breaths. Even Xuan Yu the Immortal was momentarily taken aback, a flicker of astonishment in his gaze.

Within the Defensive Line Immortal Domain [the immortal domain forming the defensive front], the ability to produce six Heaven-Opening Supreme Treasure at once was typically the hallmark of the most supreme Blessed Land [lands of profound spiritual fortune]. Often, only forces at the level of a Grotto-Heaven [a transcendent realm, a paradise for immortals] could manage such a feat.

He had initially believed Eldrin Chen and his companions were merely juniors of Zixuan the Daoist and Separated Flame Deity, but the methods they displayed now far exceeded his expectations.

"It seems the Demon Sovereign [a sovereign ruler among demons] is fated to face this tribulation today."

Watching over a dozen Great Perfection cultivators being utterly annihilated, Xuan Yu the Immortal felt a slight easing of tension in his heart and began to focus entirely on dealing with the Myriad Demons Bell [a demonic bell capable of summoning legions of fiends]. Meanwhile, Eldrin Chen continued to channel the Heavenly Separated Twin Swords, relentlessly pursuing the Earth Immortal Demonic Cultivator [a demonic cultivator who has reached the Earth Immortal realm].

However, after successively slaying several of the Demonic Path Earth Immortals [Earth Immortals who follow the Demonic Path], a shadow of grim realization darkened his eyes.

He discovered that as more and more Demonic Path Earth Immortals fell, the demonic blood within the Void [the empty space, often a battlefield or void between realms] seemed to be siphoned away by some kind of Formation Patterns [the intricate energy patterns of a formation], vanishing into the unseen fabric of the world. The corpses, flesh, blood, and even the Primordial Spirit [the foundational spiritual core of a cultivator] of these fallen Demonic Cultivator [practitioners of demonic cultivation arts] appeared to have been completely devoured by something.

Even more terrifying was that as the flesh, blood, and souls of these Demonic Path Earth Immortals were absorbed, the aura deep within the Void—akin to a black hole—grew increasingly powerful. "The situation is turning against us,"

Eldrin Chen spoke with a grim expression, his gaze involuntarily meeting those of Verdant Consort and the others.

Simultaneously, Xuan Yu the Immortal high above the Firmament also sensed the peril. His face darkened as he declared, "This is a Demonic Path Sacrificial Grand Formation [a grand ritual formation used by demonic cultivators to sacrifice lives for power]. That Demon Sovereign is using the blood of myriad demons to sacrifice his own foundational path to the Dao [the very basis of his cultivation and ascension]."
