Chapter 1620 : Forging the Primordial Indestructible Body

This gaseous form of Chaos Qi [the primordial, formless energy that predates creation] poses little threat to powerhouses at the Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a supreme realm among celestial immortals] level.

Those at the Early Celestial Immortal Realm can traverse it, unless they are attacked by a Chaos Ancient Beast [a primordial beast born from chaos] or become lost within the Primordial Chaos [the formless, primordial state before the universe], depleting their Innate Magical Power [the innate spiritual energy reserves of a cultivator]. Otherwise, a Heavenly Immortal Paragon is unlikely to perish there.

Beyond the Three Thousand Immortal Domains lies the Boundless Chaos Sea, which is composed entirely of liquid chaos.

That Boundless Chaos Sea is filled with Chaotic Torrent [violent currents of primal chaos energy], and its liquid Chaos Qi is overwhelmingly potent. For a Heavenly Immortal Paragon to enter is to seek death; only existences at the Great Luo Golden Immortal [a realm of golden immortals of great attainment] level dare to set foot within.

The mass of Chaos Qi that Eldrin Chen had refined was precisely a clump of this liquid Chaos Primordial Energy [the most fundamental, condensed essence of primordial chaos].

Having refined this Chaos Qi, Eldrin Chen could now traverse the Primordial Chaos within the Three Thousand Immortal Domains without the peril of exhausting his Mana [the spiritual energy used to fuel spells and techniques].

Not only would the Chaos Qi fail to harm Eldrin Chen, but his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a physique forged to be impervious within primordial chaos] would instead refine it into Mana to replenish himself.

"I can walk within the Primordial Chaos now,"

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, a faint smile touching the corners of his eyes.

The perfection of his Taiyi Primordial Indestructible Physique [the Supreme Unity Primordial Indestructible Body, a legendary constitution] had brought Eldrin Chen a qualitative transformation unlike any before. For uninterrupted reading, go to audi0-n0vel.c0m.

He sensed that, in terms of physical prowess alone, his strength would no longer be a significant issue even when facing an existence at the Triple Taiyi Foundation [a profound foundational stage in cultivation].

If one factored in his Mana [the refined spiritual energy used by cultivators], Immortal Treasure [a supreme-grade enchanted artifact], and Divine Ability [a heaven-defying supernatural power], then he could even battle a Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a pinnacle-level immortal].

"It is time to return."

With this thought, Eldrin Chen no longer harbored any desire to linger.

He emerged from the Thunder Pool [a pool brimming with primal thunder energy], bowed thrice in gratitude to Annihilation Daoist, and then departed using the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void [a mystical mirror capable of traversing the boundaries between Yin, Yang, and the Void].

Upon returning to the Abyssal Abode of Bliss [his personal sanctum], Eldrin Chen did not immediately proceed to the Five Elements Microcosm [a miniature realm embodying the five elements]. Instead, he returned to the Nameless Space [a mysterious, primordial space].

"You have broken through."

The Abyssal Pearl [a sentient treasure of immense power] spoke upon seeing him, its tone calm.

Eldrin Chen nodded and promptly inquired, "With the Abyssal Pearl nourishing my body, when will my Taiyi Primordial Indestructible Physique [a supreme, near-unbreakable body constitution] transform into the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique [the ultimate, heaven-born indestructible body]?"

"For your Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a body constitution born from primordial chaos] to advance to the Innate Realm [the realm of innate, heaven-born power], it requires five strands of Innate Qi [the primordial, heaven-born vital energy] to succeed."

The Abyssal Pearl [a sentient treasure of immense power] fell silent for a moment before speaking calmly, "At the current speed, it would require approximately eighty-one thousand years."

"Eighty-one thousand years."

Eldrin Chen [the protagonist, a powerful cultivator] furrowed his brow slightly. The Great Tribulation [a cataclysmic cosmic event foretold to reshape the world] was now only one hundred thousand years away. Time was already insufficient.

Seeing this, the Abyssal Pearl spoke again, "If you refine Innate Qi [the primordial, uncreated energy that existed before the universe], you would likely need three more strands."

"I understand."

Eldrin Chen nodded, a decision crystallizing instantly within his heart.

If his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a legendary physique forged from the essence of primordial chaos] were to reach the Innate Realm [the state of returning to one's original, unblemished nature], his combat power would directly step into the domain of the Early Celestial Immortal Realm [the first major stage of true immortality]. He would even be considered powerful among those in the Early Celestial Immortal Realm.

Only by cultivating the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique [the ultimate, perfected form of the Indestructible Body] could Eldrin Chen become truly fearless of all things and become the true protagonist of the Dao Tribulation [the ultimate trial of one's cultivation path and destiny].

Therefore, this time, Eldrin Chen prepared to utilize the Innate Qi and prioritize the cultivation of the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique.

After bidding farewell to his Companion Spirit Treasure [a treasure bound to a cultivator's soul], the Abyssal Pearl, Eldrin Chen arrived within the Minor Universe [a pocket dimension or self-contained world created by a supreme cultivator].

Seeing Eldrin Chen return once more, Lyra Jiang and the others looked at him with anxious expressions before inquiring, "How did it go?"

"A complete success."

Eldrin Chen spoke with a smile and, with a flick of his sleeve, manifested a wisp of Chaos Primordial Energy [the primordial, undifferentiated energy from which all creation emerged].

"Excellent."

Witnessing Eldrin Chen's breakthrough, Verdant Consort exclaimed joyfully, "Since you have broken through, the Dao Tribulation [the heavenly trial that tests a cultivator's path] should pose little threat now."

Eldrin Chen also nodded in agreement. After his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body [a legendary physique said to be unbreakable, forged from primordial chaos] advanced, his power was nearly unrivaled beneath the Heaven Immortal [a high-level immortal realm] realm. Original English translation available at (audio-novel.com).

Even if the direct disciples of a great sect besieged him, or even if a Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a peak-level Heaven Immortal] deigned to intervene personally, he was confident he had the means to cope.

Thinking this, Eldrin Chen turned his gaze to Lyra Jiang and the others, only to discover that Lyra Jiang's cultivation foundation had been polished to near perfection. It seemed her breakthrough to the dual Taiyi Realm [a profound cultivation realm representing supreme unity] was not far off.

A flicker of joy stirred within him, and he spoke, "It seems your cultivation has progressed swiftly."

Lyra Jiang nodded upon hearing this and said with a gentle smile, "The Yin-Yang Enlightenment Pill [a pill that grants profound insight by harmonizing opposing forces] and the Innate Enlightenment Tea [a legendary tea that awakens one's innate comprehension] are treasures many Heaven Immortal dream of. Even if obtained, they would typically be reserved for a breakthrough attempt."

"To use this for our cultivation would be a grievous waste of a precious treasure."

Eldrin Chen paid it no mind, replying with a smile, "What use is hoarding a treasure if one's cultivation cannot advance?"

"With the Dao Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial] drawing near, failure to break through our cultivation realms will likely bring us great calamity when the tribulation descends."

Speaking of this, Eldrin Chen continued, "Once I have cultivated the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique [a legendary, unbreakable body constitution], your foundations should be thoroughly solidified. Then we can open the alchemy furnace to refine the Yin-Yang Enlightenment Pill [a pill that harmonizes opposing forces to grant profound insight], aiding your breakthrough to the Dual Taiyi Foundation [a dual-layered foundational cultivation stage of supreme harmony]."

After settling these matters, Eldrin Chen prepared to enter seclusion to cultivate the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique.

Yet, at that very moment, Yvonne the Violet Consort spoke up, "With the Dao Tribulation approaching, every major Celestial Domain will be hosting Barter Convention [grand gatherings for cultivators to trade rare resources]."

"Within the Central Celestial Domain, there is to be a Grand Auction [an exclusive, high-level auction] open only to those at the Earth Immortal Great Perfection [the peak stage of the Earth Immortal realm] or above. Should we attend?"

Eldrin Chen pondered briefly. His initial intent was to first master the Innate Primordial Indestructible Physique, but in the span of a heartbeat, his mind changed.

For the impending Dao Tribulation, coupled with the nearing opportunity of the Hundred Calamities Rebirth [a legendary era of rebirth following a hundred great calamities], this Barter Convention was certain to be the most magnificent gathering in tens of millions of years.

The several Half-Step Celestial Immortal [cultivators one step below true Celestial Immortality] of the Chen Immortal Clan had all broken through relatively recently. Some still lacked fully ascended Lifebound Spiritual Treasure [a magical artifact bound to a cultivator's life and soul], and their Divine Ability [powerful supernatural techniques] were not yet fully mastered. These shortcomings would undoubtedly affect their combat prowess.

This was a rare opportunity indeed, for an auction where all Immortal [beings who have ascended beyond mortality] and above from the Azure Firmament Immortal Domain [a vast realm of cultivation and immortal beings] at the Earth Immortal Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Earth Immortal realm] would participate was bound to feature many rare and precious treasures.

If all nine Earth Immortal [cultivators who have attained the Earth Immortal realm] of the Chen Clan could secure suitable treasures, their methods and combat prowess would undoubtedly receive a tremendous boost.

Furthermore, among Eldrin Chen's Lifebound Divine Ability [innate supernatural powers bound to one's life essence], both the Primordial Unity Qi [a divine ability harnessing the unified primordial energy] and the Five Elements Divine Radiance [a radiant divine ability of the five elements] had been deduced to the Half-Step Patriarch Grade [a grade just below the Patriarch level], yet he was hindered from cultivating them due to the lack of crucial medicinal catalysts.

This auction presented a singular chance for Eldrin Chen to gather the resources needed to cultivate a half-step Patriarch-Grade Divine Ability [a divine ability of the Patriarch grade, the highest tier].

Mastering a Half-Step Patriarch Grade Divine Ability [a supernatural power or technique] would vastly elevate Eldrin Chen's capabilities. Even if his current cultivation base couldn't unleash its full might, its power would be comparable to that of an Innate Treasure [a treasure born from heaven and earth, possessing innate laws].

As for the even higher Patriarch-Grade Divine Ability, Eldrin Chen harbored no immediate thoughts of successfully cultivating one.

Patriarch Grade [the grade associated with Patriarch-level beings] Divine Ability were simply too formidable. Even if Eldrin Chen succeeded in deducing a Divine Ability of this grade, achieving mastery in cultivation remained an impossibility.

The prerequisites for cultivating a Patriarch Grade Divine Ability were exceedingly stringent.

Given Eldrin Chen's profound foundation, and even though this would be a Patriarch-Grade Divine Ability of his own creation, he would at the very least need to master the Innate Primordial Limitless Dao Principle [a supreme cultivation art of the limitless primordial Dao] and break through to the Heaven Immortal Realm [the realm of Heaven Immortals] before success became a possibility.

It must be understood that those Ancient Immortals [immortals from ancient times] capable of mastering a Patriarch-Grade Divine Ability stood at the very apex of power among their peers, their strength rendering them virtually unmatched within the same realm.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen spoke, "If that is the case, then before the grand assembly convenes in a few years, let us first venture to breach the defenses of Zephyr Grotto-Heaven [a secluded paradise realm imbued with potent spiritual energies]."

"Should we manage to secure some rare treasures from within, it would likely allow us to exchange for several more useful artifacts at the gathering." For the best reading experience, visit audio-novel[dot]com.
