Chapter 1088 : Secrets of the Yin-Yang Abode
Upon that Immortal Island [a legendary land imbued with immortal energies], a curtain of light descended like an inverted Glaze bowl, firmly shielding it from the outside world.
"This is the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect Ruins [the remains of a once-great sect that cultivated the principles of Yin and Yang],"
Sylas Ye, the Immortal spoke, his voice brimming with excitement. "Proceed with caution. We shall enter through a weakened point in the Formation [a defensive or offensive array of magical energy]."
As he spoke, he prepared to lead the group inside.
"Wait."
But at that very moment, Eldrin Chen interrupted him.
Eldrin Chen's expression grew solemn, a flicker of doubt in his eyes. "Although this Formation is damaged, it still functions. Moreover, the Immortal Vein [a concentrated ley line of potent spiritual energy] is merely High Grade. Can this truly be the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect Ruins?"
Sylas Ye, the Immortal let out a hearty laugh and shook his head. "The main stronghold of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect was seized long ago by a powerful immortal sect."
"This is an immortal's private estate, a place where the Yin-Yang Ancient Ancestor concealed his treasures and legacy. It was also a contingency he prepared for myself to return after Reincarnation [the cycle of death and rebirth of the soul]."
Seeing this, Eldrin Chen said no more, though a vague sense of peril lingered in his heart. For uninterrupted reading, go to audi0-n0vel.c0m.
"If one lacks even this measure of courage, what business does one have exploring ruins?"
"If you dare not enter, then turn back. Your departure would mean one less person to share the spoils with."
Suddenly, Canda the Daoist sneered and spoke, then took the lead, flying directly into the depths of the Yin-Yang Abode of Bliss.
Eldrin Chen remained unmoved. He swept his gaze around, observing the others. The Old Monk wore a grave expression, Flora the Immortal Maiden maintained her cheerful, smiling demeanor, and only Zenyu the Prison-Keeper remained utterly impassive.
Zenyu the Prison-Keeper stood tall and slender, his hair a stark white. His gaze was cold, profound, and unreadable. He cast a calm glance at Eldrin Chen, then became the second to stride forward into the abode.
Watching Zenyu the Prison-Keeper step inside, Sylas Ye, the Immortal offered a faint smile. "Let us proceed together, honored ones. That Ancient Tengshe is a creature of immense ferocity, its power rivaling the Ninth Level of Ascension to Immortality. Only by joining our six strengths do we stand a certain chance of victory."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen pondered briefly before finally following the others inside.
The group of six ventured into the subsidiary abode, journeying deep into the ancient ruins. Only then did they grasp the true, staggering vastness of the place.
The subsidiary abode stretched before them, boundless and immense. They flew for a long while merely to reach its outer periphery, and upon arrival, looks of astonishment crossed their faces.
There, within the heart of the ruins, two ancient trees were rooted in the earth, their branches cascading with streams of Yin and Yang Dual Qi [the intertwined spiritual energies of passive Yin and active Yang].
"Profound Yin Moon Cassia [a legendary spiritual tree that embodies the essence of profound Yin and the moon], Solar Fire Orange [a legendary spiritual tree that embodies the essence of pure Yang and the sun]!"
Gazing upon the two Immortal Roots [roots of immense spiritual power, often the source of immortal-grade treasures], Canda the Daoist's face flushed with fervent heat, and he could not help but reveal their origins.
Hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a stir in his heart, recalling the lineage of these two Immortal Roots.
Within the Immortal Domain [a realm of higher existence where immortals dwell], there are many Acquired Spiritual Roots [spiritual roots formed after the creation of the world, possessing profound attributes]. These Spiritual Roots [the foundational spiritual plants that anchor ley lines and produce spiritual fruits] each possess different elemental properties. The two before them were precisely those imbued with the dual attributes of Yin-Yang [the fundamental opposing yet complementary forces of the cosmos].
The Profound Yin Moon Cassia was originally born from the condensation of the Profound Yin Law [the cosmic principle governing profound darkness, cold, and the passive feminine force]. The Profound Yin Cassia Fruit [the fruit of the Profound Yin Moon Cassia, rich in Yin essence] it bears is a perfect match, capable of augmenting the Primordial Spirit's [the spiritual core and true essence of a cultivator] power of an Immortal [a being who has transcended mortality and achieved a higher state of existence].
Furthermore, this treasure contains the Profound Yin Law within it. Consuming it can assist an Immortal in comprehending the pure Yin Laws of the Dao [the fundamental principles and rules that govern reality and cultivation].
The Solar Fire Orange, in contrast, is infused with Pure Yang Power [the pure, active, masculine cosmic energy of the sun]. Consuming it can aid an Immortal in cultivating the Solar Law [the cosmic principle governing the sun, light, and active masculine force], and it is also a supreme treasure for tempering one's Physical Body [the corporeal form, which can be refined to incredible durability].
In ancient times, Yin-Yang Ancient Ancestor cultivated both the Yin-Yang Law simultaneously. Although he never forged an Immortal Physique [a body perfected through immortal cultivation, granting immense power and longevity] or a Dao Fruit [the ultimate fruit of one's cultivation path, representing mastery over a Dao], he still advanced his comprehension of the Laws of the Dao to a level surpassing the Pinnacle of Immortal Ascension [the highest known stage of immortal cultivation].
This achievement was not solely due to Yin-Yang Ancient Ancestor's breathtaking talent; these two Immortal Roots also played a significant role.
"Two High Grade Immortal Roots [immortal roots of the highest quality and potency]... To think it would be them."
Eldrin Chen murmured under his breath, his heart flickering with the covetous desires of the others.
His gaze swept over the four figures, and only then did he notice that Canda the Daoist had already revealed a look of greed, while Flora the Immortal Maiden also had a shimmer of longing in her autumn-wave-like eyes.
Sylas Ye, the Immortal, however, remained expressionless, speaking with utmost gravity: "In the past, foreseeing the peril of the Great Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly calamity], the Yin-Yang Ancient Ancestor transplanted these two Immortal Root [the foundational spiritual plants of an immortal's abode] along with a great many treasures to this place."
"Within these ruins lie not only these two Immortal Root, but likely several Supreme Grade Immortal Treasure [the highest class of enchanted artifacts used by immortals] as well. It would be wiser to secure the ruins completely before discussing their distribution."
Seeing this, the others finally suppressed the greed in their hearts.
Canda the Daoist, reining in his thoughts, surveyed their surroundings and said, "You speak wisely, brother. Let us first slay that Tengshe [a mythical winged serpent demon]." Find thousands of chapters at site: audio-novel.com.
"Speaking of which, where is that Tengshe hiding?"
"It comes."
At that moment, Zenyu the Prison-Keeper, who had remained silent until now, suddenly spoke.
The group swiftly raised their heads to look deep into the Void [the formless, boundless space between realms], where a sky-obscuring Ancient Tengshe [an primordial, immensely powerful winged serpent] came flying towards them.
Eldrin Chen withdrew his gaze and could not help but glance at Zenyu the Prison-Keeper, a thought flashing through his mind instantly: "This Zenyu the Prison-Keeper follows the Path of Flesh Sanctification [a cultivation art focused on refining the physical body to an indestructible state], yet he was the first to detect the Tengshe [a legendary winged serpent demon]."
"No wonder he is the only one among these people who gives me a sense of danger."
"ROAR—"
As that thought flickered, the Tengshe had already discovered them and immediately charged forward with a furious hiss.
Sylas Ye, the Immortal's expression changed abruptly, and he spoke with utmost gravity, "Everyone, act swiftly!"
"CLANG—"
As Sylas Ye, the Immortal's words fell, he instantly summoned an Azure Immortal Sword [a celestial-grade sword imbued with immortal power] and slashed towards the Tengshe.
The Tengshe showed no fear whatsoever. Its snake-like tail, forged as if from dark gold, lashed out violently, actually knocking the Azure Immortal Sword flying back.
"What formidable Physical Body [the strength and resilience of a cultivator's corporeal form]!"
The pupils of everyone present contracted slightly. This Tengshe's Physical Body was like immortal metal forged, capable of withstanding the assault of a High Grade Immortal Sword.
Sylas Ye, the Immortal [a title for a powerful immortal cultivator] paled slightly, channeling his Lifebound Immortal Sword [a sword forged with and bound to a cultivator's very life essence] to strike once more. With grave solemnity, he declared, "This Tengshe [a mythical winged serpent demon] now rivals the power of a Ninth Level of Ascension to Immortality [the pinnacle stage before achieving true immortality]. We must coordinate our efforts flawlessly to slay it."
"Then let us act together,"
Seeing this, the group immediately unleashed their various Immortal Treasure [powerful artifacts used by immortal beings] in a concerted assault.
Eldrin Chen felt an inexplicable unease settle in his heart. He continued to wield the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss [a sword imbued with the power of the Li Fire of the Returning Abyss] in his attacks, using the rhythm of combat to survey their surroundings.
He observed that among the group, besides Sylas Ye, the Immortal who wielded his Lifebound Immortal Sword, the others each employed their own formidable methods.
The Canda the Daoist [a daoist whose name implies severing or remnant heavens] summoned his staff. Though unassuming in appearance, it was forged from a fusion of an immortal vine and immortal metal.
It seemed to possess a weight surpassing that of an entire Great Thousand World [a vast cosmic realm]. Even the mighty Physical Body [a cultivation art focused on forging an indestructible physical form] of the Ancient Tengshe [an ancient and powerful winged serpent demon] dared not receive its blows head-on.
Flora the Immortal Maiden [an immortal maiden associated with flowers and nature] conjured a cloud of pink miasmic mist. This treasure, named 'Ninefold Spring Scenery' [Ninefold Spring Scenery], could not only shield its user but also infiltrate an opponent's Divine Soul [the spiritual core of a high-level cultivator]. It was a versatile High Grade Immortal Treasure [a top-tier artifact used by immortal beings] capable of both offense and defense.
The Old Monk [an elderly Buddhist monk] produced a Vajra Buddha's Alms Bowl [an alms bowl imbued with the indestructible power of the Vajra, a Buddhist symbol], another immensely powerful High Grade Immortal Treasure.
Zenyu the Prison-Keeper unleashed two massive Chains. Forged from Purgatory Black Gold [a rare, dark metal said to originate from the depths of purgatory], their grade was also as high as Immortal Rank High Grade [the highest classification for immortal-grade artifacts].
Six Late Stage Immortal Ascension Realm experts joined forces, unleashing six Immortal Treasure [supreme enchanted artifacts] against the foe, finally managing to suppress the rampant arrogance of the Tengshe [a legendary winged serpent demon].
Yet, even with their combined might, after hundreds of exchanges with the Tengshe, they discovered they could not inflict any meaningful harm upon the winged serpent.
Seeing the situation turn dire, Flora the Immortal Maiden could not help but change her expression, saying, "This serpent's scales are forged like immortal metal. With our current methods, I fear we cannot cleave through them."
Witnessing this, Sylas Ye, the Immortal spoke up immediately, "If any among you possess a hidden technique, I implore you not to hold back. To continue this fight is merely to waste our Immortal Essence [the refined life-force energy of an immortal]."
"Hmph!"
Canda the Daoist's gaze turned icy, and he sneered coldly, "If the rest of you can restrain this Tengshe for a mere moment, this old man's Heaven-Severing Grand Method [a supreme divine technique capable of sundering the heavens] might just be able to wound it."
