Chapter 1565 : Descending to the Mortal Realm

"Starfall Cataclysm?"

Eldrin (Person Name) furrowed his brow slightly and inquired in a light tone.

As Chen Xingzu’s explanation unfolded, Eldrin gradually pieced together the whole story.

It turned out that the star regions surrounding the Violet Realm were located in an uncivilized, remote corner of the cosmos. The entire galaxy spanned merely a few 1000 light-years, making it an inconspicuous minor galaxy.

Within this galaxy, there exist approximately 3 1000 Major 1000 Worlds, along with 1,000,000 ancient life-bearing stars.

The vitality energy on the Ancient Star of Life was exceedingly sparse, allowing cultivation to reach at most the Nascent Soul realm. All Nascent Soul cultivators on those ancient stars had to traverse the boundless starry skies and enter the Great 1000 World to advance further.

Yet within the vast cosmos, the majority of realms possess far from abundant spiritual energy. Much like the Empyreal Void Realm, it might take a 100 1000 or even several 100 1000 years before a single immortal ascends to the heavens.

In the vast expanse of the immortal realm, transcendent worlds like the Violet Boundary—capable of nurturing multiple immortals—are exceptionally rare. It stands as 1 of the 10 Great Transcendent Worlds within the Frontier Star Domain.

Logically speaking, this star region was scarce in resources. After attaining immortality, cultivators would typically ascend to higher celestial realms, with little interaction between them. For the most part, they coexisted peacefully.

Yet no 1 could have imagined that not long before, an ancient ark from the depths of the cosmos had traversed endless starry skies to arrive at the frontier star domain. This vessel belonged to the notoriously malevolent Starry Sky Demons of the void.

The Starry Sky Demons have always been a race that plunders resources across the cosmos. They devour stars and worlds as sustenance, and revel in blood sacrifice—their methods bearing an uncanny resemblance to those of demonic cultivators.

They dared not attack major star domains guarded by the Celestial Court's Star Palaces, often specializing in assaulting remote minor star systems in the cosmic frontier.

Most of these minor star systems spanned only a few 1000 light-years across, with the largest not exceeding 20 to 30 1000 light-years. The stars within them numbered less than 1 percent of those in the Great River Galaxy, and their energies were often exceedingly feeble—making them the most favored sustenance for the Starry Sky Demonic Tribe.

After this Starry Sky Demon race arrived at the Frontier Star Domain, they developed an immense fascination with it.

They launched a colossal war against the 3 1000 Great Realms, seeking to transform the borderland galaxy spanning thousands of light-years into their own nest.

This time, the demon clan that arrived at the Frontier Star Domain possessed considerable strength, including an Earth Immortal-level existence. Fortunately, they were temporarily held back by the Great Barren Dao Palace, the most powerful force in the Frontier Star Domain.

However, according to the calculations of the Earth Immortal Ancestor from the Great Wilderness Dao Palace, this group of demonic tribes were merely the vanguard forces.

The demonic nest lurking behind them was immensely powerful, harboring vast numbers of formidable demons at the True Immortal level and even Earth Immortal tier. Once these demons launched their full-scale invasion, the frontier star domains would possess no means of resistance.

To resist the Starry Sky Demon Clan, the Great Wilderness Dao Palace spread the message across 3 1000 major realms and a million ancient stars, beseeching numerous immortal traditions to ignite the Immortal Mark Incense and summon celestial beings to descend and quell the cataclysm.

Star Demon Clan.

After understanding the cause and effect, Eldrin murmured softly, his gaze involuntarily turning frosty.

Concerning the safety of the Violet Realm and even the entire Borderland Star Domain, Eldrin, as an immortal who ascended from the Violet Realm, was akin to its rightful heir and naturally could not stand idly by.

He took a deep breath, then gazed upon the assembly and declared, "The matters of the lower realm have come to my knowledge." "Soon, I shall descend to the mortal plane. Ensure you are fully prepared for the coming conflict."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately revealed expressions of ecstatic joy.

They prostrated themselves on the ground, with Chen Xingzu even more overwhelmed with emotion. While others were unaware of Eldrin's strength, as a member of the Chen Immortal Clan, he possessed some understanding of the Chen lineage from the Upper Realm.

As far as he knew, within the upper realm's Chen Immortal Clan (Organization), there were at least several Earth Immortal Patriarchs. Among them, Eldrin (Person Name) had progressed exceptionally far even among Earth Immortals. At this thought, he took a deep breath and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "The Immortal Ancestor pities all living beings and deigns to descend to the mortal realm to save the common people. The 3 1000 great realms are saved." "......"

Severing the connection to the lower realm, Eldrin immediately convened the assembly of Chen Clan immortals.

At the same time, Lin Tianqi, the Palace Lord of the Dao Palace, the Void-Refining Immortal, and Dorian (Person Name) also came seeking him out, clearly having received messages from their clansmen in the lower realm as well.

"Since you're here, let's convene the meeting together."

Eldrin (Person Name) gathered the crowd in haste, and couldn't help but feel a flicker of astonishment as he saw 2 100 immortals standing tall before him.

Who could have imagined that in just a few 100 1000 years, the Purple Realm had already seen over 2 100 immortals ascend to the heavens. Judging by this alone, the number of ascendants from the Purple Realm over the past 800,000 years has already surpassed the total from the previous 8 million years combined.

"In the past 8 million years of the Violet Realm, only 2 100 immortals have achieved ascension. It seems the Violet Immortal Lord has not been nurturing successors?" Eldrin (Person Name) pondered inwardly, then slowly shook his head after a moment.

As far as he knew, among the 200 immortals who had ascended from the Violet Realm in the past, there were no shortage of Earth Immortals and even Celestial Immortals. It was evident that the Violet Immortal Lord had indeed mentored his fellow natives.

However, he seemed to have shown little inclination to guide the cultivators of the lower realm, and it remained unclear why the Violet Immortal Lord had never extended his care to the Violet Realm.

He shook his head, suppressing the thoughts in his heart. After a 100 years of silence, Eldrin spoke: "The Starfall Cataclysm in the Border Desolate Starfield this time is no trivial matter. We must dispatch immortals to descend to the mortal realm and quell this calamity."

"However, the Purple Realm is rather unique. To avoid drawing attention from those who might take notice, I do not intend to bring too many immortals down to the mortal world."

Upon hearing this, the crowd fell into contemplative silence. Lin Tianqi couldn't resist asking, "In your opinion, how many immortals should we dispatch to the mortal realm?" Eldrin pondered briefly before responding, "The Earth Immortal Elders shall descend with me. The remaining immortals shall stay in the Celestial Realm." The assembled immortals' expressions shifted subtly at these words.

For hundreds of thousands of years since attaining immortality, who among them wouldn't yearn to return home in glory and gaze upon the homeland that nurtured their very existence?

The Lord of the Dao Palace was well aware of this. He waved his hand dismissively and sighed, "The Purple Realm involves far too many stakes. If too many of us return, it might bring unforeseen troubles to our homeland."

"Please endure for a while, fellow cultivators. Once 1 among us reaches a realm beyond that of Ancient Immortals, our Violet World shall rightfully reappear beneath the heavens." Hearing this, the assembled immortals sighed faintly in unison before their gazes turned collectively toward Eldrin.

To be fair, judging by the talent Eldrin had demonstrated thus far, he truly might be the 1 most likely in the Violet Realm to attain the realm of Ancient Immortal—or even the Great Luo Golden Immortal. Under the collective gaze of the assembly, Eldrin offered no further words, merely waving his hand to dismiss the numerous immortals present. Then, he turned his attention to the Earth Immortal Patriarchs who had remained behind.

After the immortals departed, only a handful of Earth Immortals remained.

Aside from the few from the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization), there were only 6 Earth Immortal Patriarchs: Lin Tianqi, the master of the Dao Palace, the Refined Void Immortal, Dorian (Person Name), Freya (Person Name), and the Demon-Subduing Divine Monk.

These individuals had received Eldrin's support, and though most of their cultivation levels were only at the early to middle stages of the Earth Immortal realm, each possessed a remarkably solid foundation.

Among them, Lin Tianqi had opened 8 layers of heaven, the Lord of the Dao Palace had opened 7 layers, while the Transcendent Void Immortal, Dorian (Person Name), Freya (Person Name), and the Demon-Subduing Divine Monk—all 4 had opened 6 layers of heaven.
