Chapter 1100 : Return to Verdant Chariot Mountain
In addition, there were nearly a 1000 volumes of celestial-grade scriptures, encompassing alchemy, formations, artifacts, talismans, and cultivation techniques—each an astonishingly precious treasure of incalculable worth.
Gazing at these treasures, Lila couldn't resist picking up the Ancient Ice Soul, declaring, "With this artifact now in my possession, I shall forge my Immortal Body within 2 centuries."
Yan Zi Ji, who had also obtained a share of the Fire Element Immortal Marrow, spoke with evident delight, "With this treasure, I too can attempt to break through to the Immortal Physique realm."
Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod upon hearing this.
Yan Ziqi and Lila (Person Name) had cultivated for over 10 1000 years, with more than 3 1000 years having passed since their ascension to the immortal realm.
During this period, they obtained various immortal-grade resources such as the Dragon Phoenix Dao-Forging Pills, causing their cultivation bases to advance by leaps and bounds.
As early as over 1 1000 years ago, they had already cultivated both their physical bodies and mastery of laws to the Half-Immortal Realm, truly just a step away from attaining full immortality.
Now that they possessed this Primordial Ice Soul and Fire Essence Marrow, their chances of forging an immortal body were exceedingly high.
At this thought, Eldrin took out 2 more Faith Silver pieces and said, "Faith Silver contains the power of mortal devotion. Refining it grants the blessing of collective faith, increasing your chances of a breakthrough by 20 percent."
"With your foundations, refining the Primordial Ice Soul and Fire Essence Marrow was already highly probable. Combined with this Faith Silver, it should be as certain as sunrise."
Upon hearing this, the 2 women instinctively accepted the treasures, their faces lighting up with delight.
Among the 3 paths of Laws, Dao Fruits, and Immortal Bodies, the path of the Immortal Body is considered the most accessible way to attain immortality.
This path of immortality is the most resource-intensive. Without an exceptionally high background, those who seek to ascend through this way often find themselves stuck in mediocrity—unable to reach the heights yet unwilling to settle for less.
However, with sufficient resources, the certainty of attaining immortality through this path far surpasses that of the Law Immortals and the Dao Fruit Immortals.
They had fought their way through countless trials and tribulations, possessing no lack of mental fortitude and courage. With Eldrin's full support, their chances of forging an immortal body were greatly assured.
After distributing these 2 treasures, Eldrin handed the 9-Layered Spring Hues to Lyra and said, "The Eternal Firethread Silk, the Primordial Chaos Essence Gold, and the Profound Mystery Divine Iron—these 3 treasures."
"I intend to use them to forge 3 immortal treasure embryos, all to be entrusted to Qing'er."
Upon hearing this, Qing Ji nodded in understanding, realizing that Eldrin was making amends for Chen Xianqing.
Back then, Chen Xianqing was unable to refine the 7-Aperture Lyra Jade, so among all the treasures, the fetal-nurturing treasure was considered the most ordinary 1. For this reason, Eldrin prepared to forge several additional immortal treasures for his protection.
Seeing Eldrin make this decision, the others naturally had no objections, and so the matter was settled.
After Eldrin returned, his several wives gradually began their secluded cultivation.
Lila and Yan Zi Ji began their secluded cultivation to ascend to Immortal Physique, while Qing Ji and Lyra commenced their assault on the third realm of Transcendent Ascension.
Once they achieve a breakthrough, they can attempt to refine the Yin Yang Taiji Pills. With the aid of the Ascension Creation Pills, they will likely reach the middle stage of Ascension Realm cultivation within 10 1000 years, becoming a significant asset to Eldrin (Person Name).
Since all 4 wives had entered seclusion, Eldrin naturally had no way to do the same.
He remained on Verdant Chariot Mountain, beginning to instruct Varen while simultaneously delving into the various immortal scriptures of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect.
In his spare time, he began cultivating the Ink Marrow Immortal Soil using the Heaven-Seizing Earth-Nourishing Art.
Thus, 1 100 years had passed in the blink of an eye. After gradually assimilating the ancient texts of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect, Eldrin found his own accumulation growing ever more profound.
Boom—
Until this day, within Lila's secluded cultivation chamber, an extreme icy power surged between heaven and earth, forcibly transforming the entire mountain into a snow-clad peak.
Immediately after, a peerless fairy with skin like congealed jade and boundless chill energy swirling around her stepped forth.
Seeing this, Eldrin couldn't help but smile faintly. "Since you have attained immortal form, eternal life is now within your grasp."
A smile graced Lila's lips as she finally attained the fulfillment she had long sought in her heart.
After 10 1000 years of cultivation, her Icy Soul Immortal Body had finally been perfected, and she was now confident in transcending the heavenly tribulation to ascend as an immortal.
However, she understood that even among immortals there were distinctions between high and low, and 1 should not compete over momentary speed. Shaking her head, she said, "The path to immortality isn't about seeking instant gratification. I still need to comprehend the power of the Frost Soul Law."
"Not so fast."
Eldrin nodded, then added, "I shall first assist your Ice Soul Immortal Sword in ascending to immortal treasure rank. By drawing insights from the laws contained within your bonded immortal treasure, your chances of comprehending the laws should be significantly greater."
Lila did not decline upon hearing this. Back when Eldrin was comprehending the principles of the Pure Yang Heavenly Fire, he had used the laws contained within the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss for reference.
Not only that, but at that time Eldrin also drew upon the power of the Li Fire Vermilion Bird and the wisdom from hundreds of classic texts, enabling him to completely comprehend the Pure Yang Heavenly Fire Law in an extremely short period.
Now, if Lila wished to comprehend the Law of the Ice Soul, the most effective approach would be to study treasures imbued with the power of this very law.
And the Lifebound Immortal Treasure forged with the fusion of Frostsoul Immortal Gold was the most suitable treasure.
At this thought, Lila (Person Name) gave a slight nod. She glanced at Eldrin (Person Name), her eyes suddenly shimmering with a silken allure as she said, "I appreciate your efforts, my husband, but our elder sisters have yet to emerge from seclusion."
"I shall keep my late husband company for a while. There will be ample time to advance the immortal treasure later."
Seizing the rare moment of solitude, Lila tugged Eldrin into the cavern abode to begin their secluded cultivation.
She pestered Eldrin for a full 3 years, until even her cultivated immortal physique could barely endure it, before finally emerging from seclusion with utter satisfaction.
With Eldrin's assistance, Lila's Ice Soul Condensing Light Sword ascended as naturally as water flowing downhill.
Eldrin expended a wisp of Primordial Purple Qi and, in less than 10 years, succeeded in prematurely elevating Lila's Frostgleam Condensed Light Sword to immortal rank.
When the Ice Soul Gleam Sword underwent its Numinous Treasure Heavenly Tribulation, Lila could no longer attend to Eldrin. Embracing the immortal sword, she immediately began secluded cultivation to comprehend the laws.
And just as Lila went into seclusion, Yan ZiJi finally achieved her immortal body and emerged from her cave abode.
Unlike Lila, Yan Ziji had cultivated an immortal physique known as the 'Violet Flame Celestial Body'.
The moment Eldrin (Person Name) laid eyes on Yan Ziji (Person Name), his throat went inexplicably dry.
As is widely known, as cultivators progress in their practice, their innate spiritual roots and cultivation techniques ultimately shape distinct temperaments and physiques.
Cultivators with a fire-attribute spiritual root, through continuous cultivation, find their bodies nourished by the elemental fire energy, gradually developing curvaceous and graceful figures.
Lady Yan Zi possessed a fire-attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root). Her figure, already the most voluptuous among the maidens, grew even more breathtaking after cultivating the Violet Flame Immortal Physique.
This Violet Flame Immortal Body was a fire-aligned immortal physique, considered 1 of the most perfect constitutions among the Fire Element lineage.
After Yan ZiJi completed her cultivation, her figure grew increasingly alluring and voluptuous. Beneath her fiery perfection lay an exceptionally slender waist, which even caused Eldrin to momentarily lose his focus.
"Husband."
Yan Zijie noticed the subtle shift in Eldrin’s expression, and for some inexplicable reason, a faint blush crept across her cheeks.
Eldrin said nothing more, sweeping the peerless celestial beauty into his arms with a low chuckle. "My lady has successfully cultivated her immortal form," he murmured, his voice laced with warmth. "This arduous seclusion deserves celebration—allow your husband to properly commemorate this achievement."
On this day, Eldrin awoke from his deep slumber. Gazing at the graceful immortal maiden nestled in his arms, he couldn't help but reveal a faint, bitter smile.
Perhaps due to her cultivation technique and immortal physique, Yan ZiJi possessed a far more proactive and clinging nature compared to Lila (Person Name). After attaining her immortal form, she grew even more alluring and enchanting. Even when she could barely endure, she would still entwine with him day and night—so much so that 7 whole years slipped by unnoticed.
At this thought, Eldrin silently cautioned himself.
"A gentle nest is a hero's tomb. How can we, as cultivators, wallow in the pleasures of the bedchamber day after day?"
The Yin-Yang Co-Cultivation Art had diminished in efficacy considerably since achieving immortality. Unless it could be elevated to an immortal-grade technique, 1 must exercise moderation in its practice.
