Chapter 1069 : Treasure Allocation
"These 2 Great Daos are far too formidable, leading directly to the realm of Dao Ancestors and Immortal Saints. They represent 1 of the most brutal and fiercely contested authorities, where over hundreds of millions of years, numerous Great Luo Immortal Monarchs have met their demise."
At this point, a faint glimmer flashed through Zhenyu Zi's eyes.
He hailed from a distinguished immortal sect of the Abyssal Inferno Sea, having naturally received guidance from eminent masters. His choice to pursue the Path of Suppressing the Abyss was partly to steer clear of such brutal methodologies.
Eldrin listened quietly, his eyes trembling faintly in spite of himself.
His Primordial Chaos Infinite Law was composed of 5 supreme principles: Pure Yang, Profound Abyss, Earth of All Things, Primordial Gold, and Life.
1 day, should he seek to break through to the realm of the Dao Ancestor and Immortal Sage, he would inevitably have to contend for the authority over these 5 great Daos.
This was an unbearably cruel truth, causing Eldrin's heart to sink ever so slightly.
Even if Eldrin did nothing, once he broke through to the Great Luo Realm, trouble would likely come seeking him.
This was a struggle for the authority of the Great Dao. If he had no desire to advance further, it would be 1 matter, but as long as he continued his cultivation, these troubles would inevitably find him sooner or later.
"The path of the Great Dao might be even more brutal than I had imagined."
Eldrin (Person Name) let out a soft sigh, then shook his head after a long while. "Enough. I have merely reached the Realm of Ascension—why dwell on matters so distant?"
The final 'Yin Yang Taixu Sutra' was naturally the legacy cultivation method of the Yin Yang Patriarch.
This method cultivates the principles of Yin and Yang, yet it does not follow the grand paths of the Supreme Yin or the Supreme Yang. Instead, it delves into the profound laws of Mysterious Yin and Mysterious Yang.
Therefore, the Yin-Yang Ancestor cultivated the Minor Yin-Yang Law, not the Supreme Yin-Yang Law of Infinity, yet it could still be considered exceptionally formidable.
The cultivation method recorded within this technique was even more astonishing than the first 2 volumes of immortal scriptures.
It contained 2 divine abilities: the 'Yin Yang Life-Death Curse' and the 'Yin Yang Aurora Evasion'. The former was something Eldrin had naturally witnessed before.
The latter was a supreme-grade immortal movement technique, capable of transforming the cultivator into twin auroras for instantaneous travel—an unparalleled art for survival and pursuit.
Had the Yin-Yang Patriarch unleashed this divine ability back then, Eldrin and Zhen Yu Zi might not have been able to slay him.
Fortunately, the Yin-Yang Ancestor had exhausted his magic power back then. In his haste, he couldn’t even activate the Yin-Yang Polar Light Escape, which led to him being slain on the spot.
In addition to 2 divine abilities, this cultivation method also recorded the refinement methods for 2 supreme-grade immortal treasures—naturally, the Yin Yang Polar Light Sword and the Yin Yang Dual Polarity Pearl.
The Yin Yang Polar Light Sword and the Yin Yang Dual Polarity Pearl were now in the hands of the 2 individuals. As for the refinement methods of these 2 innate treasures, they now served only as references for enlightenment and comprehension.
Even so, Eldrin still cherished the scroll technique dearly.
He couldn't resist stroking the 3 cultivation manuals, then remarked, "These scrolls are truly remarkable treasures."
Seeing this, Zhenyu Zi shook his head and said, "These cultivation manuals are indeed extraordinary, but to me, they are merely adding flowers to brocade."
"If you desire it, I shall not contend."
"How could I possibly accept this?"
Eldrin was momentarily taken aback, his hand clutching the 3 volumes of cultivation techniques hesitating imperceptibly.
These 3 volumes of cultivation techniques held immeasurable value. The soul refinement path of the Lunar Soul Refinement Art and the body tempering methods of the Solar Forging Technique would provide immense reference significance for Eldrin's future cultivation of both soul and physical form.
The Yin Yang Taixu Sutra was a cultivation method that integrated several laws, capable of aiding Eldrin in continuously refining his Primordial Chaos Wuji Immortal Sutra. It could be said that its value was truly immeasurable.
Once he obtained these 3 volumes of cultivation techniques, Eldrin was even confident that within a few 1000 years, he could advance his own cultivation method to the Ninth Heaven of Ascension.
"Ha ha ha!"
Seeing the look on Eldrin’s face, Zhen Yu Zi said with a smile, “In this battle, it was you who slew Yin Yang Lao Zu. It’s only right that you take a larger share.”
Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) finally said no more.
He picked up the remaining 4 volumes of supreme-grade immortal scriptures and said with a smile, "Let's take a look at the other 3."
Unlike the former, the remaining 4 immortal scrolls were not cultivation techniques.
1 scroll contained the alchemy legacy, 1 scroll held the artifact forging legacy, 1 scroll preserved the talisman legacy, and the final scroll recorded an extraordinary secret technique.
The alchemy inheritance was truly extraordinary, recording the methods to refine 2 types of supreme-grade immortal pills.
The legacy of artifact forging encompassed the crafting methods for 40-3 immortal tools, while the talismans recorded the creation techniques for 30-7 celestial-grade talismans.
Zhenyuzi scanned through the contents and shook his head. "These legacies are fairly decent, but aside from the Ethereal Enlightenment Pill from this alchemical scripture, the rest largely overlap with what our sect already has in its collection."
Eldrin's eyes narrowed slightly. Among the 3 immortal scriptures were recorded hundreds of types of immortal elixirs, celestial artifacts, and even talismans—yet the opposing sect had collected nearly all of them.
At this thought, Eldrin couldn’t help but take a deep breath and said, “With such profound foundations in your sect, could it be 1 of the hidden paradises within the Abyssal Purgatory Sea?”
Zhenyuzi smiled faintly and replied noncommittally, "Considering the life-and-death bond between us, it would be improper to keep this from you."
"The Nether Abyss Purgatorial Sea contains 7 great cave heavens. My humble sect resides within the second-ranked Purgatorial Cave Heaven among these 7."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) felt a sudden shock in his heart, finally understanding why Yin-Yang Patriarch had shown such astonishment when he laid eyes on the 7 Ghosts Purgatory Furnace (Magic Treasure).
At this thought, Eldrin could only smile wryly and say, "Then this Dan Sutra shall be entrusted to you."
"Agreed!"
Zhenyu Zi nodded, then turned his gaze to the final ancient scripture.
A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes as he remarked with keen interest, "This secret art appears to be rather intriguing."
Eldrin also perused the ancient scripture, his heart trembling faintly in that instant.
This final immortal scripture recorded an exceedingly profound cultivation method, known as the Heaven-Plundering Earth-Nourishing Art.
The Heaven-Seizing Earth-Nurturing Art was an astonishingly profound secret technique, whose marvel lay in its ability to artificially cultivate immortal soil.
According to the method recorded in this secret tome, a cultivator need only obtain a clump of Immortal Soil and scatter it across the spirit fields.
He then set up an array within the spirit field, sought out rare spiritual treasures rich in spiritual energy, and gradually refined them into the immortal soil. In this way, all the spirit soil in the field could be transformed into immortal soil.
It is said that with enough refined spiritual materials, even a handful of immortal soil could theoretically transform into a 1000 acres of celestial farmland.
However, this method was exceedingly demanding, requiring at least the cultivation level of the Ascendant Realm to barely assist in refining and nurturing its growth.
Moreover, it required immortals who cultivated the laws of earth, wood, water, and other elements to refine it day and night through secret arts.
"Although the method is demanding, it can nurture immortal soil. Even if this technique were delivered to the blessed lands of terrestrial immortals, it would be sufficient to serve as a treasured heritage."
Zhenyu Zi shook his head, his expression profoundly grave as he stated, "This method is likely an exceedingly precious technique even for our Nether Prison Cave Heaven."
Eldrin, however, was reluctant to abandon this method either. After a moment of contemplation, he suggested, "How about this—after we leave, I'll purchase a sheet of Taiyi Gold Leaf Paper and transcribe the contents? What do you think?"
"Very well."
Zhenyu Zi nodded. The Great Yang Gold Leaf Paper was exceedingly costly, but using it to exchange for this cultivation method was well worth it.
With matters having reached this point, the 2 had finished distributing all 1 100 volumes of immortal scriptures.
The 2 then turned their gazes toward the remaining treasures, their faces involuntarily breaking into faint smiles.
Compared to the celestial scriptures that required considerable time to gradually digest, these tangible treasures were the ultimate artifacts that could enhance their strength within a short span.
