Chapter 1622 : Xunfeng Soul-Chasing Bow

But it was already too late. Chen Qiyuan descended like a celestial king suppressing the mortal realm, his palm striking down with the force of a divine decree. The boundless laws of the sun surged forth, instantly obliterating the enemy’s primordial spirit. Yet, Chen Qiyuan’s slaughter was only the beginning.

At almost the same moment, Lila (Person Name) froze a Half-Step Celestial Immortal with her Glacial Soul Radiance. Seizing the opportunity, Yan ZiJi (Person Name) unleashed her innate divine ability, 'Purple Cosmos Severing Heaven Sword' (Divine Ability), instantly slaying the foe high above in the heavens.

The third deity soon met the same fate, vanquished in the void by the combined might of Chen Ethan’s twin swords of creation and destruction.

"My life is at its end."

Seeing that the tide had turned against them, the 2 Half-Step Celestial Immortals, each possessing twin Great Perfection foundations, were struck with astonishment.

They realized the tide had turned against them and immediately sought to flee, only to discover that the void had long been sealed.

"I'll fight you to the death!" At the final moment, a deity went berserk, summoning a set of bow and arrows to suppress Qing Ji.

This set of bow and arrows possessed extraordinary power, respectively named the Zephyr Soulchaser Bow and the Gale Sunpiercer Arrows.

Both the bow and arrows were low-grade Taiji Immortal Artifacts, but when combined, their power rivaled that of a mid-grade Taiji Immortal Treasure. In fact, their offensive prowess ranked among the finest even amidst mid-grade Taiji Immortal Artifacts.

"Be careful."

As the astonishing arrow shot toward her, Qing Ji (Person Name) immediately retreated with grave solemnity to save her life, only to discover that the Gale-Chasing Sun Arrow (Magic Treasure) clung to her shadow, relentlessly pursuing her in a deadly chase.

Seeing this, Lyra (Person Name) immediately summoned the Divine Light of 5 Colors to capture it, only to discover this treasure existed beyond the 5 Elements, rendering even the Divine Light of 5 Colors ineffective.

At the same moment, Seraphina Qu unleashed her innate divine ability—the 9-Colored Immortal Light—intending to seize control of the Taiyi Immortal Weapon. Yet her foe would not permit it. The enemy, possessing a dual Taiyi foundation, descended into madness during the battle. Without regard for the cost, they burned their essence blood to summon the Taiyi Immortal Weapon, slashing forth in a desperate assault. Forced to trade injury for survival, Seraphina Qu had no choice but to defend with her full strength.

At that very moment, Eldrin frowned slightly between his brows beneath the celestial dome.

With a mere flick of his sleeve, the Yin-Yang Void Mirror rotated subtly, effortlessly drawing in the Gale-Chasing Sun-Piercing Arrow.

"Hoo—"

Seeing the Gale-Chasing Sun Arrow being seized, Qing Ji finally let out a sigh of relief.

This set of Great Yin Immortal Armament possessed extraordinary lethality. Without any defensive Great Yin treasures to protect herself, had it not been for Eldrin's Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void, she would likely have suffered grievous injuries—perhaps even faced the peril of annihilation.

With this thought, Qing Ji's eyes gleamed with a chilling light as she summoned the Crimson Azure Twin Dragon Swords, slashing forth with overwhelming force to completely annihilate this formidable foe and exact her long-awaited vengeance. Witnessing this from the heavens, Eldrin (Person Name) declared, "End this swiftly, lest lingering consequences arise."

Hearing this, the assembly acted without hesitation, immediately unleashing their divine abilities and immortal treasures in a concerted assault to suppress the 2 Half-Step Celestial Immortals.

Having lost the Gale-Chasing Sun Arrow, they no longer possessed the trump card that could decisively turn the tide and suppress half-step Celestial Immortals. Confronted by the onslaught of 6 powerful foes, these 2 half-step Celestial Immortals ultimately proved unable to hold their ground.

Though they were protected by a Great Immortal Artifact, none in their group could be considered weak. In Seraphina Qu (Person Name)'s hand shimmered the Mystic-grade divine ability 9-Colored Immortal Light, its power rivaling that of a Great Immortal Artifact itself.

Qing Ji had mastered the forbidden domain and wielded the Taiyi Essence Gold War Halberd, making her combat prowess no less formidable than theirs.

With Chen Qiyuan and 3 others joining forces to besiege him, the outcome of this battle was practically predetermined.

After merely a 100 exchanges, the 2 Half-Step Celestial Immortals with dual Taiyi foundations were utterly suppressed and slain. The remaining deities and Earth Immortals likewise failed to escape their fate of death, all beheaded upon the void. Immediately after, the main array casters were executed, allowing Eldrin to finally fully suppress the Zephyr Soul-Quelling Bell.

As everything came to an end, Eldrin (Person Name) let out a sigh of relief and said.

"Thankfully, it was a close call."

Qing Ji retrieved the Gale Soul-Seeking Bow and handed it to Eldrin, saying, “When combined, this bow and arrow set is powerful enough to instantly subdue a Half-Step Celestial Immortal—even 1 with a formidable physical body—in the hands of such a cultivator.”

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned grave.

With the exception of extraordinary beings like the 10 1000 Spirits Ancestor whose magic power defies the heavens, an ordinary Half-Step Celestial Immortal could, at most, refine a low-grade Taiyi Immortal Treasure or a low-grade Primordial Treasure.

However, even the might of a lower-grade Taiyi Immortal Weapon could not instantly suppress and kill a Half-Step Celestial Immortal. Thus, those who had reached the Half-Step Celestial Immortal realm possessed extraordinary survival capabilities. Even when pursued by a Double Taiyi realm expert wielding a Taiyi Immortal Weapon, they stood a high chance of preserving their lives if they focused solely on escape.

However, the current Xunwind Soulhunter Bow and Liuwind Sunchaser Arrows were different. When combined, this bow and arrow set was powerful enough to suppress and slay a Half-Celestial being with dual Great Unity foundations. Yet, its grade remained within the lower tier of Great Unity Immortal Arms—a truly remarkable feat.

At this thought, Eldrin said with a solemn expression, "This set of Taiyi Immortal Armaments must not fall into others' hands. If someone were to use it against us, I fear it would spell great trouble."

Everyone nodded upon hearing this. Yan Zijie smiled faintly and said, "If this treasure is employed during the Heavenly Tribulation, it would likely prove more valuable than even a mid-grade Taiyi Immortal Artifact, enough to serve as a true trump card."

At this point, Eldrin also smiled faintly and said, "Let's first take stock of our gains."

Eldrin spoke slowly, then instructed others to examine the treasures within this Zephyr Grotto-Heaven.

As a lower-grade grotto-heaven, the foundational strength of the Xunwind Grotto-Heaven paled in comparison to superior grotto-heavens like the Western Aether Grotto-Heaven and the Divine Abyss Grotto-Heaven. Yet for the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization), the treasures within were nothing short of astonishing. After thoroughly scouring the grotto-heaven of its valuables, the group gathered once more in the central hall of the Xunwind Grotto-Heaven.

"This time, our harvest is truly exceptionally bountiful."

Within the grand hall, the 9 half-step Celestial Immortals of the Chen clan had gathered, each revealing faint smiles.

Eldrin gazed at the list in his hand, a faint smile unconsciously gracing his features.

This Cave of the Azure Wind truly lives up to its name as a celestial grotto-heaven. Within its depths lay treasures beyond counting—celestial herbs, rare numinous materials, and divine artifacts numbered not merely in the thousands, but tens of thousands.

Of course, these treasures alone were not enough to stir the hearts of the crowd. What truly excited them were the rare wonders of eighth-tier premium grade and above.

Eldrin glanced over and saw that the most precious items were naturally the Primordial Ancient Tree and the Primordial Xunwind Gourd Vine. Additionally, there were 30-8 eighth-grade supreme treasures, among them artifacts of world-creating caliber and peerless primordial wonders.

However, all these treasures were of the wind attribute. Since the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) had no half-step Celestial Immortals who specialized in the Dao of Wind, Eldrin (Person Name) decided to sell them all.

The Taiyi Marvels, however, were exceedingly rare, with only a total of 13 in existence. They were respectively the Taiyi Immortal Treasures, the Taiyi Elixirs, and the Taiyi Marvels.

Among them were 5 sets of Great Ultimate Immortal Treasures: the Xun Wind Soul-Suppressing Bell, the Soul-Seeking Arrow and Sun-Chasing Bow, the 9 Heavens Astral Wind Pearl, and the Fierce Wind Soul-Annihilating Banner.

Among the 5 supreme treasures, the Zephyr Soul-Quelling Bell and the Sun-Chasing Soul-Seeking Bow and Arrows were the most precious. The former was a Mid-Grade Taiyi Immortal Artifact, while the latter’s value and power were comparable to a Mid-Grade Taiyi Immortal Artifact.

The remaining 9 Heaven Wind Pearls were supreme defensive treasures, capable of summoning the Primordial 9 Heaven Winds to form a protective barrier. The Soul-Devouring Gale Banner, meanwhile, was a Primordial-grade immortal artifact forged solely for slaughter.

After examining these treasures, Eldrin (Person Name) immediately declared, "Aside from the Soul-Seeking Bow and Sun-Chasing Arrows, exchange the other 3 Great Immortal Weapons for suitable Supreme Yin Marvels."
