Chapter 1584 : The Immortal Peach's Ascension

As his thoughts drifted, Eldrin Chen immediately retrieved the Heaven-Earth Primordial Qi Water and sprinkled the Innate Spiritual Water [a water of pure, primordial spiritual essence] upon the Immortal Peach Tree.

Behold, as the Immortal Peach Tree absorbed the immortal spiritual water, a slow, profound transformation began to stir within its core. "I hope you will not disappoint me."

Gazing at the metamorphosing Immortal Peach Tree, Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a glimmer of anticipation shining in his eyes.

After careful deliberation, Eldrin Chen had concluded that advancing the Immortal Peach Tree was the most optimal choice.

By comparison, the Wind-Slaying Divine Gourd was a supreme weapon of slaughter. Should it ascend to the Taiyi Realm [the Supreme Unity Realm, a profound stage of cultivation], Eldrin Chen would gain a trump card capable of threatening even those at the Triple Taiyi Foundation [a powerful consolidation of the Supreme Unity foundation], or even a Heaven Immortal [a celestial immortal].

Meanwhile, the Taiyi Enlightenment Tea could vastly enhance Eldrin Chen's comprehension, allowing him a glimpse into the Supreme Unity Dao Principle Power [the fundamental power of the Supreme Unity Dao].

Whichever of these two treasures succeeded in its advancement would propel Eldrin Chen's future cultivation to meteoric heights.

Yet Eldrin Chen believed that cultivation base was the very root of all power, the foundation upon which everything else was built. Without sufficient personal strength, even the mightiest Laws of the Dao [profound principles and powers derived from the Great Dao] would be but rootless duckweed. With the Dao Tribulation [the Great Dao Calamity, a cataclysmic event of cosmic fate] set to erupt in two hundred ten thousand years, and Eldrin Chen having only just broken through to the Earth Immortal Nine Layers [the ninth layer of the Earth Immortal realm], time was of the essence.

By Eldrin Chen's estimation, it would take myself at least one hundred fifty thousand years to cultivate Mana [spiritual energy and power] to perfection, reaching the threshold for a breakthrough to Half-Step Celestial Immortal [a demi-celestial immortal state].

By then, a mere sixty thousand years would remain before the Dao Tribulation. He would likely have time only to consolidate his cultivation, with little room for further grand stratagems. Should the Dao Tribulation arrive under such circumstances, he would find himself perilously reactive. For the best reading experience, visit audio-novel[dot]com.

Within the Chen Immortal Clan, five individuals—Verdant Consort, Lyra Jiang, Nyssa Qu, Yvonne the Violet Consort, and Lila—possess the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root elevated by Eldrin Chen. It is estimated they will likely only have one opportunity to attempt a breakthrough to the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm.

As for the three clan powerhouses with Deep-Seated Foundation—Kael Chen, Ethan Chen, and Qiyuan Chen—if their journeys of external cultivation prove unfruitful, they may not even reach the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm at all.

Thus, after much contemplation, Eldrin Chen concluded that the most pressing matter was to facilitate their breakthroughs as soon as possible, allowing them to step into the Half-Step Celestial Immortal Realm.

Under these circumstances, accelerating their cultivation with the Supreme Unity Immortal Peach seemed the optimal choice.

As Eldrin Chen pondered this, the Supreme Unity Immortal Peach Tree trembled slightly. The Supreme Unity Dao Principle Power within it finally coalesced and took form, giving birth to nine Flat Peach fruits that exuded an aura of profound and mysterious profundity.

"This is..."

"Ren Water Flat Peaches."

Eldrin Chen's heart stirred with recognition. 'The Ren Water Flat Peach Tree [the ultimate form of all peach trees, bearing fruits of immense spiritual potency] is the pinnacle state for all peach trees.

It is said that within the Human Race Immortal Court [the celestial court established by the human race], there exists a Flat Peach Grove [a sacred grove of flat peach trees]. This grove is filled with thousands of Primordial Ancient Trees [trees born from the primordial chaos of creation], all of which are Innate Ren Water Flat Peach [the supreme, heaven-born variety of the Ren Water Flat Peach]. These are the very Immortal Peach [peaches of immortality] used by the Celestial Court to feast its assembled immortals. One must remember that the guests of the Celestial Court are beings of at least Heavenly Immortal Paragon caliber, among whom are figures of Great Luo Immortal Lord stature.

For such treasures to be revered as Immortal Treasures by beings of that magnitude speaks volumes of the rarity of the Ren Water Flat Peach [a flat peach imbued with the essence of the Ren Water, one of the celestial stems]. The tree belonging to Eldrin Chen is a Ninth Rank, Taiyi-grade Flat Peach tree. Compared to the Celestial Court's Innate Ren Water Flat Peach, it is separated by merely A Step Away.

"The difference between the Innate [a state of primordial purity and perfection] and the Acquired [a state shaped by worldly influences] is but a single step, yet it separates heaven and earth."

"But after all, the Ninth Rank Flat Peach has also undergone a startling metamorphosis."

Eldrin Chen gazed upon this Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, a faint smile gracing his lips. His Ren Water Flat Peach Tree could not compare to a true Innate Flat Peach Tree, yet it had still achieved a remarkable Mysterious Profound.

According to his calculations, a mere mortal who consumed a single Supreme Unity Ren Water Flat Peach could instantly Ascending to Immortality [achieve immortality], attaining a lifespan equal to that of heaven and earth, becoming deathless and eternal.

Of course, those who used such a Flat Peach to Ascending to Immortality would find their future cultivation progress severely hindered due to their insufficient foundational roots.

The peach's most crucial function, in truth, lay in aiding the cultivation of beings in the Taiyi Realm. By Eldrin Chen's estimation, an Immortal at the Earth Immortal Nine Layers who consumed one Flat Peach could save themselves a million years of arduous cultivation.

If an Earth Immortal Nine Layers with perfectly accumulated foundations consumed a Ren Water Flat Peach, they could even use its vast energy to assail the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm, gaining a full ten percent increase in their chance of success.

Furthermore, a Half-Step Celestial Immortal existence, if aided by a substantial quantity of Ren Water Flat Peach, could gain a measure of increased possibility for breaking through to Heaven Immortal.

However, after the Flat Peach Tree's advancement, its maturation cycle had greatly lengthened. From now on, it would require a full million years to bear fruit once.

"It seems achieving complete mastery of the Earth Immortal Great Perfection is now within arm's reach."

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, a faint smile gracing his lips.

He consumed one Flat Peach [a legendary fruit of immortality that grants immense longevity and spiritual power], devoting a portion of his focus to refining its energy. The remaining eight peaches were carefully harvested before he finally emerged from the Seclusion Chamber [a specially prepared chamber for undisturbed cultivation and meditation]. He found Lyra Jiang standing guard outside, having been protecting his retreat.

Over these years, Lyra Jiang had already broken through to Earth Immortal Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Earth Immortal realm, just before the Celestial Immortal threshold]. Meanwhile, Verdant Consort, Nyssa Qu, Lila, and Yvonne the Violet Consort were all in secluded cultivation, striving to reach Earth Immortal Nine Layers [the ninth and final layer of the Earth Immortal realm].

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen handed the Flat Peach to Lyra Jiang and said with a gentle smile, "With this treasure, it won't be long before you can attempt your own breakthrough to Half-Step Celestial Immortal [a transitional state between Earth Immortal and true Celestial Immortal]."

Lyra Jiang accepted the fruit, a soft smile touching her lips.

She took the Flat Peach and inquired, "Now that you have broken through, are you preparing to make your move?" This chapter appears courtesy of audio–novel.com.

"The Spirit Mountain [a sacred mountain imbued with profound spiritual energy] is not going anywhere. There is no need for haste just yet,"

Eldrin Chen shook his head. He continued, "Once your Mana [the refined spiritual energy cultivated by immortals] reaches perfection, you too should attempt the Half-Step Celestial Immortal breakthrough. I will go and refine a few batches of Primordial Unity Golden Body Pill [a supreme-grade elixir that forges an indestructible golden physique]."

Lyra Jiang paused for a moment, then nodded. "Very well," she agreed.

Back when he was at the Seventh Level Earth Immortal [the seventh layer of the Earth Immortal realm], Eldrin Chen had already been capable of refining supreme elixirs like the Yin-Yang Enlightenment Pill [a pill that harmonizes opposing forces to grant profound insights], which ranked among the Taiyi Immortal Pill [a classification for the highest grade of immortal pills].

With Eldrin Chen's current Mana [the realm of a cultivator who has refined their spiritual energy into a purer, more potent form], although he has not yet fully refined the Flat Peach [a legendary fruit of immortality], his power far surpasses what it was during his Seventh Level Earth Immortal [the seventh stage of the Earth Immortal cultivation realm] days. His Alchemy [the art of refining spiritual pills and elixirs] has also seen significant improvement since those times. Therefore, Eldrin Chen prepared to fire up the cauldron and refine the Primordial Unity Golden Body Pill [a supreme pill that forges an indestructible golden physique], making early preparations for Lyra Jiang and others to break through to the Taiyi Realm [the Taiyi Primordial Unity realm, a high stage of immortal cultivation].

Lyra Jiang's Dao Body [a physique innately aligned with the Dao, the fundamental principle of existence] is one born of innate nature, not a constitution cultivated through later practice like Eldrin Chen's.

A constitution born innately possesses abundant internal Primordial Source [the foundational, primordial energy from which all things are derived]. Breaking through realms does not require consuming vast resources, and cultivation is considerably simpler.

Take Eldrin Chen's Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [an indestructible physique forged from the essence of primordial chaos] for example. If it were an innate constitution, inherently containing Innate Primordial Dao Patterns [the natural patterns of the Dao that lead directly to the Primordial Chaos realm], perhaps a single Primordial Unity Golden Body Pill would be enough to ascend to the Taiyi Realm.

Lyra Jiang's Lunar Immortal Physique [an immortal constitution imbued with the essence of the moon] is precisely this kind of innate, top-tier constitution. Such physiques can lead directly to the Great Luo Realm [the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, a pinnacle of cultivation]. Only when breaking through the crucial barrier of Great Luo does a significant and resource-intensive challenge arise.

Similarly, Nyssa Qu's form, that of the Nine-Colored Immortal Clam [a mythical clam demon beast of nine radiant colors], is also an innate constitution of this caliber. Such a physique can be described as exceedingly rare throughout the ages, facing no major bottlenecks until the breakthrough to Great Luo.

Generally speaking, an Inferior Dao Body [a lower-grade Dao-aligned physique] holds the potential for Ascending to Immortality [becoming a true immortal]. A Medium Dao Body [a medium-grade Dao-aligned physique] has the potential to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm [the realm of Earth Immortals]. A Superior Grade Dao Body [a superior-grade Dao-aligned physique] encounters no major bottlenecks before breaking through to the Heaven Immortal Realm [the realm of Heaven Immortals]. The Immortal Physique [the basic immortal body] of an ordinary Immortal [a cultivator who has achieved immortality] is often mediocre; they typically cultivate to the Earth Immortal Realm before their latent potential is exhausted. Advancing further becomes an arduous struggle of ten thousand difficulties.

Once that limit is reached, progressing further becomes nearly impossible, unless one's Immortal Physique undergoes an ultimate, transcendent metamorphosis. Join our community of readers at AUDIO-NOVEL.COM.
