Chapter 1481 : Imitation of the Taiyi Ancient Treasure

With such combat prowess, he could rival even the Netherghost Ancestor at the mid-eighth stage, emerging from the battle with scarcely any serious injuries.

Fortunately, reviving these fallen deities was not an overly difficult task for the Primordial Deities, though it would require consuming vast amounts of primordial essence and another several tens of thousands of years.

At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "I still have a portion of Immortal Source on hand. Lila, Violet Ji, and Fellow Daoist Tianyuan, you should refine it first. Quickly replenish your depleted origin essence and resurrect the fallen deities and Monarchs."

"Very well."

The 3 of them, upon hearing this, each took their share of the Immortal Origin.

The Emperor who commands the principles of existence is the embodiment of the world’s primordial essence. He holds dominion over the Mandate of Cosmic Law, and should he fall, it would inevitably diminish the combat prowess of the Earth Immortal Ancestors.

In particular, with the fall of each Emperor Monarch, the combat prowess of the Earth Immortal Ancestors would diminish somewhat.

If more than half of the Celestial Sovereigns were to fall, the combat prowess of the Earth Immortal Patriarch would diminish by at least 30 percent. Should all the Celestial Sovereigns perish in battle, the Earth Immortal Patriarch’s power would plummet by half.

Thus, the 3 of them needed to replenish their origin source as quickly as possible.

Seeing them take the Primordial Immortal Essence, Eldrin gave a slight nod. Without another word, he immediately stepped into the ancient star of the Soaring Serpent.

As a blessed land of the Netherworld, the Ancient Star of Tengshe abounds with treasures, yet the most precious among them is a dark immortal sword shaped like a dragon-serpent.

Ancient Vinegar Snake Sword.

Gazing at the ancient sword before him, Eldrin couldn't help but murmur in admiration before tossing it to the Lord of the Forgotten Abyss.

This Ancient Vine Snake Sword was a top-grade Nether Ancestral Artifact, its power comparable to that of a supreme Heaven-Opening Treasure. Most importantly, it could channel a portion of the Vine Snake’s primordial force.

Using this sword to form an array, the Netherghost Patriarchs summoned an illusory Flying Serpent whose combat prowess rivaled that of a late-stage Earth Immortal. Its soul attack capabilities were even comparable to a peak Earth Immortal, proving this was truly no ordinary treasure.

After comprehending the profound power of this ancient artifact, Eldrin declared, "Within the other 3 ancient stars, there must undoubtedly exist 3 equally formidable Nether Ancestral Artifacts."

"Let's split up and retrieve the ancestral artifacts first."

Everyone nodded slightly upon hearing this.

After some discussion, it was decided that Lyra (Person Name), the origin-damaged Daoist Tianyuan, Lila (Person Name), and Yan Zi Ji would remain here to stand guard, protecting the main forces as they temporarily rested and recuperated.

Among the remaining individuals, Qing Ji and Seraphina Qu (Person Name) departed for the Great Roc Ancient Star, while the Yin Sovereign of Old Ruins, Kael (Person Name), Chen Ethan (Person Name), and Chen Qiyuan headed to the Kui Bull Ancient Star. The final destination, the Dragon Turtle Ancient Star, was entrusted to Eldrin (Person Name).

When Eldrin arrived at the Ancient Dragon Turtle Star, he discovered that after the Dragon Turtle Phantom had perished, the power of this formation had been severely compromised.

Under his full-force assault, it did not take long before the grand formation was shattered.

After the grand formation was shattered, Eldrin indeed obtained a top-grade Nether Ancestral Artifact here—a powerful ghost treasure known as the Ancient Dragon-Turtle Shield.

When Eldrin returned, the group quickly gathered all 4 Nether Ancestral Artifacts.

Ancient Vinegar Snake Sword, Ancient Dragon Turtle Shield, Golden-Winged Great Peng, Heavenly Kui Ox Drum.

Gazing upon these few Netherworld Artifacts, Eldrin couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.

The Earth Immortals all nodded in agreement. Kael (Person Name) pondered for a moment before speaking, "We've uncovered records suggesting these 4 ancient treasures are replicas of the companion spirit treasures belonging to the 4 primeval true spirit beasts of the Yang Realm's minor cosmos."

Those 4 companion ancient treasures were all peerless artifacts of the Taiyi Ancient Treasure level, ranking among the most precious ancient treasures within this minor universe.

And those 4 Ancient True Spirit Beasts were all top-tier Half-Step Celestial Immortals, each comparable to dual Taiyi Daoguo cultivators.

Hearing this, everyone felt a slight tremor in their hearts.

Lyra (Person Name) pondered briefly before speaking, "4 primordial spirit beasts, each comparable to the legendary Lord Ye Xu from ancient times. It seems capturing the Yang Realm Microcosm will be anything but easy."

Eldrin also nodded, then spoke: "From the materials we've examined, there are at least a dozen or so Half-Step Celestial Immortal level powerhouses within the mortal realm's miniature cosmos."

"It seems the opening of this minor cosmos will inevitably lead to a fierce battle in the future."

Chen Qiyuan gave a slight nod and remarked calmly, "A dead tiger still commands respect. After all, it is a universe comparable to the Great Cosmos at the mid-stage Celestial Immortal realm—how could it be so easily subdued?"

With those words, Eldrin handed all 4 Nether Treasures to the Old Ruins Yin Sovereign and said, "These 4 treasures form a complete set of array artifacts. Once refined, they can activate the 4 Spirits Grand Array."

"I imagine its power must be considerable, though I wonder if you, fellow Daoist, can refine it."

The Ancient Ruins Yin Sovereign took the 4 Netherworld Treasures, then said after a moment of contemplation, "In my previous life, I cultivated arduously for over a million years, yet my mastery of formation arts barely reached the threshold of mid-stage Earth Immortal."

"Now that I have walked the path of the Netherworld, my mastery of formation arts has advanced another step, barely reaching the upper eighth rank."

At this point, he declared with conviction, "While setting up this formation might still be somewhat beyond my current capabilities, merely operating this set of formation artifacts should be within reach—I believe I can barely manage to activate them."

Upon hearing this, a faint glimmer lit up in Eldrin's eyes.

The Nether Lord of the Ancient Ruins, despite being only at the mid-stage Earth Immortal realm, possessed a skill of the 8th-tier upper grade. This proved that in life, he must have been a talent that astonished even the celestials.

Such extraordinary talent likely surpasses even that of Eldrin (Person Name), no wonder he managed to open up 9 layers of celestial realms without relying on external elixirs.

At this thought, Eldrin (Person Name) exclaimed in admiration, "Your innate talent and brilliance, Fellow Daoist, are likely no weaker than Divine Lord Yexu and comparable to the Dragon King of the Western Abyss."

"You flatter me."

The Ancient Ruins Yin Sovereign smiled faintly, preparing to refine this set of array artifacts.

However, before beginning the refinement process, he spoke up, "The 3 1000 Ghost Cities Grand Formation is undoubtedly extraordinary. We should first recuperate and digest the gains from the periphery before confronting it—there's no need to rush."

"Very well."

Eldrin nodded and immediately dispatched personnel to begin collecting the treasures scattered throughout the outer perimeter.

Within these outer billions of star domains, high-tier treasures were scarce, yet low-tier artifacts were far from uncommon.

After merely a 1000 years of scavenging the periphery, the group had already obtained over 10,000 Nether Ghost Treasures, more than 30,000 seventh-rank Nether Immortal Herbs, and vast quantities of resources required by ghost cultivators.

In addition, there were over 40,000 units of Faith Silver. This batch of Faith Silver alone was equivalent to 4,000,000 units of Immortal Origin.

After a comprehensive tally, they found that these resources alone were worth nearly 10 million Immortal Origin.

More importantly, this was merely the periphery of the Netherstar Domain. Within the inner circle's 3 1000 ghost cities and the core blessed lands, the treasures were likely even more abundant than those in the outer regions.

And aside from these low-tier treasures, they had also seized over 20-some Eighth Order Nether Treasures and nearly a 100 Eighth Order Nether Immortal Herbs.

Of the utmost value were 4 Grade-8 Space Gems. Such gems were rare treasures, and though these 4 were merely lower-grade, their worth was no less than that of upper-grade Heaven-Sundering Marvels.

To this, Eldrin handed 1 of the spatial gems to Ye Yanzi Ji for her to refine the Violet Cosmos Mirror of Void Flight, while keeping the rest to be distributed after the battle.
