Chapter 1892 : The Grand Luo Ascension
Umbralia murmured softly, then finally shook her head and said, "Regardless, Senior Violet's methods are profound and unfathomable. I fear even a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [a supreme being who has comprehended the fundamental Dao and attained immortality] might not be able to deduce them. With our level of power, how could we possibly see through His contingency plans?"
On this day, the group of several departed from Violet Heaven. Eldrin Chen turned back, watching as the gates of Violet Heaven slowly closed behind them.
He took a deep breath and looked at Umbralia. "For me," he said, "this Kalpa Tribulation [a cataclysmic trial of fate and destiny that cultivators must undergo] no longer holds any true rivals. There is no further need for me to continue enduring its trials."
"Next, I plan to enter seclusion for a time to attempt cultivating the True Spirit Dao Fruit [the fruit of one's Dao, representing the true essence and foundation of a cultivator's spiritual path]. If you wish to continue facing the tribulation, you may proceed on your own."
Umbralia understood perfectly well that Eldrin Chen was politely seeing her off. She immediately rose and smiled. "This journey of tempering has been entirely thanks to your guidance, Fellow Daoist. Once I prove my Dao and attain the Grand Luo [a supreme realm of cultivation representing grand unity and perfection], I shall seek you out again to discuss the Dao."
"Very well," Eldrin Chen replied with a faint smile. "After we have both attained the Grand Luo, we shall meet again for a proper discourse."
After bidding farewell to Umbralia, Eldrin Chen led Lyra Jiang and the others across the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] to a Chaos Nest [a stable pocket of order within the primordial chaos] deep within a Primordial Chaos Abyss [a profound chasm within the primordial chaos].
Gazing upon this Chaos Nest, Eldrin Chen spoke. "The field of the Primordial Chaos Abyss can obscure the divinations and senses of even a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage. By entering seclusion here, we can avoid having our secrets spied upon by those supreme beings."
Nyssa Qu nodded, a flicker of excitement in her eyes. "During this seclusion, I should be able to cultivate my True Spirit Foundation [the foundational true spirit, the core essence of a cultivator's being]."
Eldrin Chen smiled. He retrieved the Dao Source [the origin essence of one's cultivated Dao] of the Infernal Prison Sacred Spirit from his sleeve and handed it to Lyra Jiang. "Your Lunar Yin Constitution [a rare innate physique aligned with the power of the moon and yin energy]," he said, "once fused with the Chaos Lunar Fruit [a mythical fruit born from chaos and imbued with lunar essence], will undoubtedly possess limitless potential."
"However, in my view, the path of the Grand Yin [the supreme principle of darkness, passivity, and the feminine] already has its master; it may not be a suitable path for you now."
Lyra Jiang gazed thoughtfully at the Dao Source [the primordial origin of a Great Dao's power] of the Infernal Prison Sacred Spirit and said, "You mean to say..."
Eldrin Chen nodded and then spoke: "As the saying goes, Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state before creation] divides into Yin-Yang [the dual forces of darkness and light, passivity and activity], and Yin-Yang transforms into the Five Elements [the fundamental forces of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth]. Your innate talent in the pure Yin Grand Yin lineage rivals that of a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [a supreme being who has comprehended the fundamental principles of existence], and you have already cultivated the Great Dao of the Five Elements for many years."
"Why not walk the 'Pure Yin Five Elements Great Dao' [a supreme cultivation path that merges the power of pure Yin with the Five Elements]? The potential of such a Great Dao is likewise boundless. If you can truly step into the realm of Chaos in the future, your chances of breaking through to the Second Chaos RealmDao Union Realm [a legendary cultivation stage where one's Dao merges with the primordial Chaos] will be vastly greater."
Lyra Jiang fell into deep contemplation for a long moment before finally nodding in agreement.
To be perfectly honest, her innate talent for cultivating Yin-attribute Great Daos was even more astonishing than that of a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage.
However, her aptitude for comprehending Yang-attribute divine abilities was considerably weaker, at best on par with an ordinary Grand Luo Golden Immortal [a high-level immortal who has attained a golden, perfected form].
Thinking of this, Lyra Jiang spoke: "If I am to cultivate the Pure Yin Five Elements Great Dao, I will need to rebuild my foundation."
Eldrin Chen gave an acknowledging nod. To walk the Pure Yin Five Elements Great Dao, it was naturally best to use a Yin-attribute Great Dao as one's foundation.
Lyra Jiang's Samadhi True Fire [a potent spiritual fire born from the essence of one's spirit, energy, and vitality] was not a Yin-attribute Five Elements True Fire. It would be best replaced with Yin-attribute Five Elements Great Daos such as the 'Nine Netherworld Ghostly Fire' [a chilling flame born from the deepest nether realms] or the 'Pure Yin Immortal Fire' [an immortal-grade flame of pure Yin essence].
Not only that, but the other foundational aspects of Lyra Jiang's cultivation might also need to be reforged, a process whose required sacrifices could not be considered small.
However, the Great Dao of Celestial Unity True Water [the Mother of All Waters, capable of harmonizing and transforming all things] does not need to be changed. This water essence does not hinder the cultivation of the Pure Yin Five Elements Great Dao [a supreme cultivation art fusing the principles of Pure Yin and the Five Elements]; on the contrary, it aids in the more perfect fusion of the Pure Yin Five Elements Great Dao into a unified whole.
The sole issue is that Lyra Jiang's innate comprehension talent for this particular Great Dao falls short compared to her talent for Yin-attribute Daos. Once she reaches the Grand Luo [a profound realm of immortality] realm, her cultivation speed would significantly decrease.
Fortunately, this time, Lyra Jiang obtained the High-Grade Innate Spiritual Water [a supreme-grade spiritual water born of heaven and earth] known as 'Celestial Unity True Water'. As long as she refines and fully assimilates it, Lyra Jiang will face no bottlenecks in cultivating this Dao path until her breakthrough to Great Luo Golden Immortal Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm].
Furthermore, within the spectrum of Yin-attribute Daos, the more suitable Profound Nether True Water Great Dao [a Great Dao embodying the profound, abyssal essence of true water] has already been successfully cultivated by Eldrin Chen, and she is unwilling to contend with Eldrin Chen for authority over that particular Dao.
After explaining all this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "There is no need for you to rush into reforging your foundations. Wait until I break through to Grand Luo Golden Immortal [the Golden Immortal stage within the Grand Luo realm]. I will personally assist you in reforging your foundational cultivation base."
"As for the price that must be paid, I will bear and compensate for it on your behalf."
Upon hearing this, Lyra Jiang gently touched his chest, her gaze softening with a trace of deep emotion.
She had cultivated for many years, and the Samadhi True Fire Great Dao [a Great Dao of the supreme, concentrated Samadhi True Fire] had become one with her very being. The cost of reforging such deeply ingrained foundations was immense.
Without the intervention of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, relying solely on her own power, her cultivation would likely be completely crippled after such a foundational reconstruction.
Only under the direct protection of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal [the pinnacle of immortal cultivation, a being of immense power and longevity], and with the aid of various rare treasures to mend her foundation, could she perfectly rebuild her cultivation base.
Of course, Eldrin Chen deemed this price unquestionably worthwhile. For only by reshaping her foundation into one perfectly attuned to Lyra Jiang's Great Dao [the fundamental cosmic principle or path she follows] could she unleash her full latent potential, granting her a true possibility of one day proving her way and attaining the realm of a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [a supreme existence who has comprehended and embodies the origin of the Dao itself].
At this thought, Lyra Jiang suddenly began to laugh.
"What is it?"
Seeing her burst into laughter, Eldrin Chen was somewhat taken aback.
Lyra Jiang shook her head, a soft, musical chuckle escaping her lips. "I was suddenly reminded of the scene when I first laid eyes on you, all those years ago."
"Looking back now, it seems my judgment was not so poor after all."
Eldrin Chen was also momentarily lost in thought, recalling the conversation atop that nameless, desolate mountain so long ago.
"Do you think I am old?"
"Senior, you are in the very prime of your life and grace. How could you possibly be old?"
"Then why do you call me Jiang the Ancient Ancestor?"
"The mayfly is born at dawn and dies by dusk, its entire life ignorant of the distinction between Day and Night!"
"To it, the sun's rise and fall is a lifetime."
"You have lived for over thirty years. To it, that is like three thousand turbulent lifetimes in the Mortal Dust Realm. So, are you old?"
"Ten thousand years from now, perhaps you will understand that I am only a little older than you."
Recalling those bygone years, Eldrin Chen could not help but shake his head with a wry smile.
Indeed, a mortal's life is fleeting as a shooting star, vanishing into ash in the blink of an eye.
Back then, Eldrin Chen felt that ten thousand years was an unimaginably vast expanse of time.
Now, looking back, mortals have come and gone like wild grass in an endless cycle. Yet the countless millennia he and she have shared are still merely the beginning.
Some mortals and low-level cultivators, seeing the longevity of high-level cultivators, deem them ancient monsters.
Little do they know, in the eyes of high-level cultivators and Immortals [beings who have transcended mortality and attained a higher state of existence], these low-level practitioners are but weeds before the gate, withering and being replaced with each cycle of secluded cultivation, perpetually fading amidst the passage of years.
This stems from a difference in the very strata of Life [the fundamental essence and potential of a living being], forming an unbridgeable chasm of perception.
"If one is sufficiently powerful, after ten million years, one hundred million years, or even infinite billions of years..."
"...if one lives long enough, experiencing a span of time so vast, so endless that the thread of Life [the fundamental essence and potential of a living being] has no terminus, then all of us could be considered contemporaries."
Eldrin Chen murmured, a flicker of profound insight dawning upon him in that moment of reverie.
He rose to his feet, took Lyra Jiang's hand, and spoke with deep feeling, "When I attain the Grand Luo [the supreme, transcendent realm beyond the cycle of reincarnation] and transcend the wheel of samsara, you and I shall be able to truly abide together for all eternity."
"Yes."
Lyra Jiang nodded, a gentle ripple of emotion stirring within the depths of her gaze.
Eldrin Chen said no more. He simply requested Lyra Jiang to guard his cultivation, then stepped into the secluded meditation chamber.
Once inside the chamber, Eldrin Chen surveyed the foundations of his cultivation and began to consolidate the totality of his achievements.
Having cultivated to his current realm, he had already successively forged his Five Great True Spirit Foundations in the aspects of physical body, Great Dao, mana, Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator], and divine abilities.
Among the seven foundational Heavenly Passes, only the two major passes of Dao Fruit [the condensed essence of one's cultivation path] and Spiritual Treasure [an enchanted artifact used by cultivators] remained untrodden within the True Spirit Realm [a profound cultivation stage].
In truth, of these two Heavenly Passes, Eldrin Chen was already confident he could forge a True Spirit Foundation for the Dao Fruit Heavenly Pass. Once he fully integrated and unified all his foundational aspects, he could elevate his Primordial Chaos Limitless Dao Fruit into the True Spirit Realm without relying on any external aids.
"The strength of the Dao Fruit Heavenly Pass is intrinsically linked to the depth of one's own foundational reserves," he mused.
"Perhaps, before condensing the True Spirit Dao Fruit, I should first forge a True Spirit Treasure and polish my foundations to their absolute limit."
Eldrin Chen whispered these thoughts to himself, first turning his gaze inward to examine his physical form.
Within Eldrin Chen's body, all five of his bloodline divine abilities had been cultivated to the Patriarch Grade. However, the power of bloodline abilities is inextricably tied to the strength of the flesh. Until his physical body could rival that of a Primordial Chaos Emperor Monarch, Eldrin Chen would be unable to advance these abilities into the Primordial Chaos Realm.
Thus, Eldrin Chen shifted his perception to his Primordial Spirit, reviewing the Innate Divine Abilities [divine powers born from one's spiritual core] he had already mastered.
Currently, within the nine Primordial Spirit apertures of Eldrin Chen, seven divine abilities had taken root.
Among them, Primordial Chaos Qi, Primordial Chaos Divine Thunder, Five Elements Divine Radiance, and Great Deduction of Yin-Yang and Stars were already four True Spirit Divine Ability; they had reached their zenith and could advance no further.
Furthermore, both the Primordial Chaos Soldier Derivation Art and the Boundless Cosmos Sword are also Primordial Chaos Grade Divine Ability. Unless they are fused with a True Spirit Imprint to undergo a metamorphosis and open a True Spirit Aperture, it is likewise impossible to cultivate them into True Spirit Divine Ability.
Therefore, the only one capable of advancing further was the Years Like a Song Blade.
Fortunately, over these years, Eldrin Chen had slain over one hundred Eight Tribulation Ancient Immortal and seized more than one or two hundred portions of Great Luo Rare Treasure. Among them was one portion of a Time Rare Treasure known as the Time Fragment [a fragment of solidified time, a legendary treasure].
This rare treasure contained the power of Time [the fundamental force governing the flow and sequence of events] and was the crucial catalyst for cultivating the Years Like a Song Blade.
Thinking it, he acted. Eldrin Chen immediately began refining the temporal power within the Time Fragment to commence his cultivation of the Years Like a Song Blade.
With Eldrin Chen's current level of cultivation and insight, aided by the auxiliary comprehension [enhanced understanding and insight] of his Reincarnation Body [a profound ability allowing for parallel comprehension and experiential learning], he swiftly comprehended the Time Great Dao [the supreme principle of Time] contained within the rare treasure and successfully mastered the Years Like a Song Blade.
It was precisely after Eldrin Chen mastered the Years Like a Song Blade that a flicker of astonishment crossed his features.
"The Time Great Dao... it actually has no sole master?"
Eldrin Chen was deeply shocked. At this moment, he suddenly realized that the authority over the Time Great Dao was actually divided among countless Grand Luo Golden Immortal. Moreover, at its very apex, he could sense the auras of numerous Chaos Celestial Emperor.
This left Eldrin Chen utterly bewildered. In his understanding, the Time Great Dao should have been firmly grasped by the Candle Dragon Celestial Emperor.
With this thought, Eldrin Chen immediately began to calculate with his fingers, but in the next instant, he understood everything. "So that's how it is," he murmured.
The reason was that the Time Great Dao [the supreme Great Dao of Time], as one of the paramount Great Daos, is the most exalted Primordial Chaos-grade Dao among the three Great Daos of Innate, Chaos, and Primordial Chaos. It could even be considered half of a Primordial Great Dao [a foundational, primordial-level Great Dao].
The Time Great Dao alone is merely a Chaos Great Dao [a Great Dao of the Chaos Realm] of the Third Chaos Realm.
However, when the Time Great Dao merges with the Space Great Dao [the supreme Great Dao of Space], it becomes the Primordial Great Dao known as 'Space-Time' [the unified Dao of Space and Time].
Cultivating the Time-Space Great Dao to its ultimate limit allows one to step into the legendary Half-Step Primordial Chaos Realm, an ineffable, ultimate state of being that transcends the Third Chaos Realm entirely.
Within the vast expanse of Chaos, many Chaos Celestial Emperor [supreme rulers of the Chaos Realm] covet this Time Great Dao, with some even attempting to cultivate it alongside their own paths. Among them are even beings of the Third Chaos Realm, yet none possess the capability to truly master this Great Dao.
Consequently, the Time Great Dao has branched into many derivative paths. These include the Daos of Time, Instant, Hour, Fleeting Year, Four Seasons, Day and Night, and others.
The Great Dao mastered by the Candle Dragon Celestial Emperor, for instance, is 'Day and Night', one such branch of the Time Great Dao.
In truth, he is not alone in this. The Primordial Phoenix [an ancient, mythical avian demon beast] cultivates not the complete Space Great Dao, but one of its branches: the 'Void' Dao.
"It seems," Eldrin concluded, a note of solemn realization in his voice, "that attaining mastery over this Time Great Dao will be far more difficult than even achieving a Chaos Great Dao."
Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a trace of helplessness surfacing within him.
He had a vague sense that after reaching the Chaos Realm [the foundational stage of cultivation within the primordial chaos], the difficulty of each subsequent advancement would be comparatively simpler.
For a Great Dao [the supreme, fundamental principle of existence] that, once mastered, could lead directly to the Third Chaos Realm [the third and profound stage of cultivation within the primordial chaos], and even held the potential to step into the Half-Step Primordial Chaos [a quasi-legendary state bordering the ultimate origin of all things] realm—such a path was one that even a Chaos Celestial Emperor [a supreme ruler born from the primordial chaos] could never bring themselves to abandon.
At this moment, Eldrin Chen also vaguely understood that powerhouses of the Third Chaos Realm must be exceedingly rare. It was like a field where every plot was already occupied; one could not simply break through at will.
This was because the Time Great Dao [the supreme Dao governing the flow and essence of time itself] was among the most revered and paramount of Great Daos, with few others capable of rivaling it. Even the master of the Time Great Dao had only reached the Third Chaos Realm, which spoke volumes about the sheer difficulty of breaking into that realm.
"Enough, there is no need to dwell on it further,"
"Let us take one step at a time. For now, cultivation remains the priority."
Eldrin Chen shook his head slightly. After sensing the power within the Years Like a Song Blade [a divine ability where time flows like a melodic song, concentrated into a blade's edge], he retrieved his five Lifebound Treasures [magical treasures intrinsically linked to a cultivator's life force and soul]. Then, he took out the Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance of infinite potential from the chaos].
In truth, the moment he laid eyes on the Chaos Mud, Eldrin Chen had already formed a complete idea of how to cultivate a True Spirit Treasure [a treasure of the highest order, containing a true spiritual consciousness].
As a Chaos Rare Treasure [a treasure of immense rarity born from the primordial chaos], this mass of Chaos Mud possessed limitless malleability, making it the supreme divine material for forging Lifebound Treasures.
With this Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation], Eldrin Chen no longer needed to research the balance between Yin-Yang [the complementary forces of dark and light, passive and active] and Five Elements [the fundamental phases of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth]. He could directly fuse all five of his Five Natal Immortal Treasures [a cultivator's personally bound and nurtured immortal-grade magical artifacts] into it.
This was because the Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation] possessed not only extreme malleability but also a Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state from which all existence emerged] attribute. Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state from which all existence emerged] inherently encompasses all things; Yin-Yang [the complementary forces of dark and light, passive and active], Five Elements [the fundamental phases of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth], and indeed all of creation evolved from Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state from which all existence emerged].
By using this substance to merge with his Natal Treasures, there was no need to strive for balance. The powers of the five Natal Treasures could be perfectly fused as one, transforming into a single, supremely powerful True Spirit Treasure [a treasure of immense power, often possessing its own spirit or consciousness].
Upon reaching this realization, Eldrin Chen did not hesitate. Using the Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation] as the foundation, he began the process of merging his five Natal Treasures into it.
He directly fused all of his Five Natal Immortal Treasures [a cultivator's personally bound and nurtured immortal-grade magical artifacts] into the mass of Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation], refining it into an irregular lump of Chaos Divine Material [a divine-grade ore imbued with primordial chaos energy].
At this point, Eldrin Chen discovered that forging a treasure with this clump of Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation] was not limited to Natal Treasures alone; any treasure could potentially be merged within it.
Thus, Eldrin Chen retrieved the Great Cauldron, the Treasure Seal, the Immortal Pagoda, the Soaring Immortal Zither, and other captured Low Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure [a basic grade of treasure born from nature, possessing inherent spiritual power].
He fused these Innate Spiritual Treasure [treasures born from nature, possessing inherent spiritual power] into the Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation]. After merging four such treasures, he sensed he was nearing its capacity.
It could no longer accept another Innate Spiritual Treasure [treasures born from nature, possessing inherent spiritual power], but a small amount of space remained. Therefore, Eldrin Chen also fused the shattered fragments of the Primordial Chaos Heaven Halberd into the mass. This weapon had accompanied him for many years, and he was reluctant to abandon it.
Once all ten treasures were fully integrated, Eldrin Chen began to channel Chaos Fire [a divine flame born from primordial chaos] to refine the mass of Chaos Mud [a primordial, formless substance embodying the state before creation]. He further tempered it with his other divine abilities: the Primordial Chaos Divine Thunder [heavenly lightning imbued with primordial power], the Five-Colored Divine Light [a radiant light embodying the five elements], the Primordial Chaos Qi [the primordial breath of creation], and more.
As countless divine patterns of the Great Dao [the fundamental laws and principles of existence] merged into it, Eldrin Chen observed the Chaos Mud gradually refining and assimilating all those Innate Spiritual Treasure [treasures born from the primal forces of creation] and life-bound treasures.
"It is nearly complete."
Eldrin Chen murmured softly, then expelled five streams of Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light [primordial and unbreakable spiritual radiance], causing them to fully merge into the Chaos Mud.
As these treasures and the Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light were completely refined, the mass of Chaos Mud finally transformed into a single Treasure Seal [a seal-shaped magical artifact] that emanated waves of Primordial Chaos Qi [the primal, undifferentiated energy of chaos].
"BOOM—"
The moment the Treasure Seal took form, Eldrin Chen suddenly perceived the vast, boundless Void [the empty space between realms] tearing asunder.
The lofty, suspended Eternal True Spirit [the everlasting spiritual essence of the cosmos] seemed stirred, reacting for the first time with significant movement. To the astonished senses of countless Chaos Celestial Emperor, it descended, showering down infinite True Spirit Imprint [the fundamental marks or seals of true spiritual essence].
"Who is breaking through? With so many True Spirit Imprint, could it be someone achieving Dao Union [the state of merging with the Great Dao]?"
Throughout the vast Chaos, many Chaos Celestial Emperor opened their eyes, a flicker of surprise crossing their countenances.
Some felt perplexed. A powerhouse capable of reaching the Second Chaos Realm's 'Dao Union Realm' [the realm of merging with the Dao] was by no means weak, even when viewed across the entire Chaos. How could such a breakthrough occur without the slightest warning?
Deep within the Chaos Ancient Domain where the Primordial Chaos Abyss resides, in a region more prosperous than the Thirteen Domains of the Heavenly Abyss, an indescribable existence opened its eyes, revealing a trace of bewilderment.
"Who has made the breakthrough?"
"Could it be the Devouring Demon Emperor, or perhaps the Southern Abyss Dao Ancestor, or even the Strength Extreme Progenitor God?"
"Impossible. If they were to break through, it could not be so sudden and swift, without any forewarning."
The being murmured, its expression turning grave, before finally lowering its gaze once more. "So be it. No matter how he concealed his aura, now that the breakthrough is complete, I cannot stop him."
"What an immense True Spirit Imprint."
While countless beings within the Chaos were abuzz with discussion, Eldrin Chen allowed a smile to grace his lips. The True Spirit Imprint that had descended this time was unexpectedly vast.
Previously, when he had forged his True Spirit Foundation, the True Spirit Imprint he had drawn was already several times greater than an ordinary cultivator's. Yet now, this influx was not merely several times, but many times greater than even that previous occasion.
In that instant, a torrential sea of True Spirit Imprint surged into the Treasure Seal, etching every single inch of it with True Spirit Runes until it was completely covered, and still the flow did not fully cease.
Eldrin Chen swiftly guided the remaining True Spirit Imprint into his own body, and only then did he draw a deep, steadying breath.
Then, his gaze fell upon the True Spirit Treasure before him, and his eyes shone with a light of unprecedented intensity.
He drew the treasure into his hand and channeled his power into it. Instantly, the Chaos Treasure Seal began to transform.
The Treasure Seal shifted forms in succession—first into the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, then the Celestial River Ren Water Sword, then it morphed into the Soaring Immortal Zither, the Yin-Yang Void Mirror, the Wu Earth Sovereign Emperor Bell, an ancient cauldron, the Immortal Pagoda, and other treasures.
"The Treasure Seal can assume the form of any artifact fused into it, and can Eruption with power far exceeding that of the original object, equivalent to the combined might of ten treasures."
"No, it is even more formidable than the mere sum of ten treasures' power."
Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, then with a flick of his sleeve, he activated the Treasure Seal once more.
In that instant, the Chaos Treasure Seal split into ten separate entities, transforming into the Wu Earth Sovereign Emperor Bell, the Celestial River Ren Water Sword, the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, the Primordial Chaos Heaven Halberd, the Soaring Immortal Zither, and the other treasures.
Furthermore, the auras of these ten treasures merged into one, invisibly forming a complete Innate Spiritual Treasure Grand Formation.
"When the Treasure Seal divides, it can also transform into the Innate Slaughter Formation."
Eldrin Chen murmured softly, his fondness for the Chaos Treasure Seal growing with each passing moment, unable to bear parting with it.
This Chaos Mud truly lives up to its name as a supreme divine substance. While fusing ten treasures into one, it retains the unique properties of each individual treasure, allowing it to transform into any one of them at will to confront an enemy.
Thinking of this, Eldrin Chen could not help but feel a surge of excitement. He took a deep breath and said, "Ever-changing, all-encompassing—it is indeed a supreme Chaos divine substance [a primordial state of undifferentiated potential from which all things originate]."
"My True Spirit Treasure [a treasure born from and nurtured by a cultivator's own soul essence] is likely not just any True Spirit Treasure, but one of the most supreme treasures among them."
"But what should such a treasure be called?"
Eldrin Chen pondered for a moment. He considered naming it the 'Chaos Seal,' but ultimately felt such a name was too presumptuous.
"A name that draws too much attention is unsuitable. Since my Dao title is Abyssal, perhaps this treasure should be called the 'Abyssal Seal'."
