Chapter 1642 : Chaos Whale
Boom
In the blink of an eye, heaven shook and earth quaked, the entire minor universe trembled violently.
Lyra and the others, who had been in secluded cultivation, were all jolted awake. They swiftly flew to Eldrin’s side, their expressions turning gravely solemn as they gazed upon the primordial leviathan. “It’s a Chaos Ancient Beast—the Chaos Whale.”
Chen Qiyuan recognized the origin of this Chaos Leviathan, his expression turning incomparably grave as he spoke.
Seeing this, Lyra (Person Name) also introduced to Eldrin (Person Name), "Back when you went into seclusion to cultivate the Chaos Indestructible Body, the innate primordial chaos beast we encountered was this Chaos Leviathan."
“For over a 100 1000 years, we hadn’t suffered its attacks, so we assumed it had given up. Never did we expect it to return with a vengeance today.” As the group recounted the events, Eldrin grasped a general understanding of this primordial chaos beast’s power.
The combat prowess of this Chaos Leviathan was roughly comparable to that of an early-stage Celestial Immortal, with its true strength likely residing within the Second Heavenly Layer of the Celestial Immortal realm.
Back then, even with 8 supreme half-step Celestial Immortals like Lyra joining forces, augmented by the power of a microcosm, they could barely defend themselves against this Chaos Leviathan—such was its overwhelming might.
Were it not for the fact that the stability of his inner cosmos had been greatly enhanced after being empowered by the Primordial Tree, the 5 Elements Cosmos might well have been destroyed by this Chaos Beast.
"This Chaos Ancient Beast possesses extraordinary power; even a Celestial Immortal would find it difficult to slay." "If we confront it today, I fear we may struggle to defeat it as well."
Qing Ji spoke slowly, a trace of helplessness in her voice.
Eldrin fell into a brief contemplation before speaking, "The Primordial Chaos Beast has returned here, I fear it has completely set its sights on the 5 Elements Microcosm." "If we cannot resolve this threat, it will become a persistent nuisance when the Heavenly Tribulation descends and we are preoccupied." Seraphina Qu could not help but inquire, "Then what do you intend to do?"
Eldrin pondered briefly before speaking, "We shall engage with full force and see if we can make our stand here." "Agreed."
Lyra nodded slightly and said, "But there’s no need for haste. Let it collide with the microcosmos first. Once its power is significantly depleted, we can strike with our full strength and settle this in 1 decisive move."
"Very well."
Eldrin gave a slight nod, allowing the ancient beast to continue ramming against this miniature 5 elements cosmos.
With the might of a Primordial Chaos Beast, each strike carried the power to shatter heavens and extinguish worlds. Fortunately, the 5 Elements Universe was still in its infancy, brimming with abundant energy and primordial essence.
Even under the relentless assaults of the Chaos Ancient Whale, this miniature cosmos showed no signs of breaching.
The intelligence of the Primal Chaos Beasts was not high. Even though this Primal Chaos Whale possessed extraordinary power, it lacked profound spiritual wisdom.
It continuously battered against the world’s membrane, and before long, 3 1000 years had passed. By the time it had exhausted much of its strength from the relentless impacts, Eldrin finally seized a fleeting opportunity.
"I shall strike first. Seize the moment to lend me your strength when the time is right."
Suddenly, Eldrin spoke.
In an instant, he stepped into the miniature cosmos of the 5 Elements, manifesting a primordial true form towering billions of zhang high. Channeling the Chaos Origin within him, he condensed an ancient sword of primordial chaos and swung it with tremendous force toward the Leviathan of Chaos.
The Chaos Leviathan, caught completely off guard, suffered a hidden loss. In that instant, Eldrin’s blade carved a deep gash into its form. Roaring in fury, it immediately locked into a fierce battle with Eldrin.
A great battle erupted in an instant. The Primordial True Body, towering millions of feet high, and the awe-inspiring Primal Chaos Ancient Beast clashed fiercely at the edge of the 5 Elements Small Universe. The scale of this confrontation was boundless, and from the very beginning, it descended into a deadlock where neither side could gain a decisive advantage.
Meanwhile, Lyra (Person Name) and the others seized the opportunity to strike at several Chaos Ancient Beasts whose power rivaled half-step Celestial Immortals, quickly gaining the upper hand against these primordial creatures.
This time, the Chen Clan's strength far surpassed that of previous years. With the assistance of Chen Xianzhang and Chen Xianqing, dealing with a few ancient beasts at the half-step Celestial Immortal realm was naturally effortless.
In barely a 100 moves, 3 Ancient Beasts at the half-step Celestial Immortal realm were slain, while the rest retreated into the endless chaos. Seeing this, the Primordial Chaos Ancient Beast immediately seized the opportunity to flee.
Fortunately, Eldrin had long been prepared. With all his might, he activated the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand, firmly suppressing the Chaos Leviathan.
To this day, Eldrin had cultivated both his Primordial Chaos Qi and Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder to the half-step Patriarch realm. When unleashed, they possessed the power to shatter heavens and annihilate earth.
Even the power of a Primal Chaos Ancient Beast found it difficult to break free in that instant. "Now!"
Seeing the opportunity must not be lost, the cultivators swiftly activated their Taiyi Immortal Artifacts and divine abilities, launching relentless assaults upon the primordial chaos beast's physical form. Yet they discovered their attacks merely glanced off the Chaos Leviathan like insignificant scratches.
Not only did it fail to inflict serious damage, but it completely enraged the creature instead. "What formidable physical resilience."
Witnessing this scene, Chen Xianqing’s heart tightened in shock. He couldn’t help but murmur, his gaze tinged with astonishment:
Lyra had anticipated this, her expression turning exceedingly grave as she stated, "These primordial chaos beasts possess neither a primordial spirit nor magical power—their entire combat prowess stems solely from their indestructible, immortal physical forms."
"This body of a primordial chaos beast, tempered day and night by the essence of chaos, had long become indestructible. Even a low-grade Taiji Immortal Weapon could not inflict true harm upon it."
"Then allow me to give it a try."
Chen Qiyuan spoke, immediately gripping the Xunwind Soulhunter Bow. Drawing the string taut, he unleashed a blinding ray of slaughter. With a deafening roar, the Legwind Sunpiercer Arrow tore through the primordial chaos, violently ripping a gaping wound into the flesh of the Chaos Leviathan. "Shun!"
Suddenly stung by the pain, the Primordial Chaos Ancient Beast flew into a frenzy on the spot.
Eldrin remained utterly unfazed, pushing the power of his Primordial Immortal Body to its absolute limits as he barely managed to suppress the Chaos Leviathan.
Seeing this, Lyra (Person Name), Qing Ji, Seraphina Qu (Person Name), and the others immediately unleashed their ultimate techniques.
However, against such a Chaos Colossus with its formidable physical body, neither Kael's 3 Fiends Slaughter Immortals Sword Array nor Seraphina Qu's 7 Extremes Sever Spirit Sword Array proved particularly effective, managing only to inflict numerous superficial wounds.
However, Qingji’s Crimson Azure Twin Dragon Swords, when united, unleashed a force of immense power—strong enough to inflict significant damage upon it. Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) also struck with all his might, unleashing a relentless assault.
The Yin-Yang Primordial Magnet Annihilation Divine Light of the Yin-Yang Void Realm and the Mysterious-tier divine ability, the Taiyi Void Cosmos Sword Qi, slashed relentlessly upon the Chaos Leviathan. Under this ceaseless onslaught, the beast's wounds deepened layer by layer, until it could no longer endure the mounting devastation.
Gathering the boundless primordial chaos energy around him, he withstood a direct strike from Eldrin's Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder and fled deeper into the chaos. "Do we pursue?"
Watching the Chaos Leviathan escape, Lila (Person Name) couldn't help but ask with an unwilling expression.
After joining forces, they had finally managed to severely wound the Primordial Chaos Beast, yet failed to slay it completely. This left everyone with a lingering sense of discontent.
Eldrin pondered briefly before speaking, "He was struck by my Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder, and further wounded by the Primordial Empyrean Sword Qi of the Great Unity and the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void."
"If the power of the laws and principles contained within such profound divine abilities and innate treasures cannot be resolved, then the longer the injury persists, the more severe it will become."
"I pursued it alone, waiting until It grew weak before seizing the opportunity to strike It down."
