Chapter 1730 : Overlooking the Ages, Fearing Nothing

Both Abyssal Cessation Daoist and Western Profound Celestial Deity were powerful Celestial Immortals at the mid-stage, each reigning as a Grotto-Heaven Lord and Grand Elder respectively. Their statuses were supremely exalted, yet Eldrin (Person Name) alone could still command their deference.

Yet, the Master of the Void Sword ranked among the top 3 Heavenly Immortals at the Great Perfection stage within the Vast Azure Immortal Domain. His personal arrival left Eldrin utterly astounded.

He stepped out into the void and saw several figures approaching through the air, led by none other than Jiang Daoxu (Person Name) and the Lord of the Taixu Sword (Person Name).

The Grand Emptiness Sword Sovereign was a handsome man with snowy hair and a youthful countenance. His cultivation was as unfathomable as the abyss, and his entire body was enveloped by an intangible sword aura. Even Eldrin (Person Name) felt an immense pressure emanating from him.

To this, Eldrin dared not show the slightest neglect. He personally stepped forward to greet the visitor, saying, "Senior Taixu, your personal presence does me great honor. I apologize for failing to welcome you properly."

"Ha ha ha."

The Lord of the Voidsword let out a hearty laugh, stepping forward to support Eldrin (Person Name). "In the battle at the Voidmist Mountains, you single-handedly trapped and slain over a 100 prodigies of the divine and demon races, severing their lineages of 10 million years. Moreover, you aided my disciple Daoxu in transcending the Heavenly Dao Tribulation."

"To be precise, it is I who owe you a favor. How could I possibly allow you to come greet me in person?"

High above in the distant void, the celestial immortals of the demon and god races could no longer maintain their composure upon hearing this.

The Grand Elder of the Western Qi Grotto-Heaven’s expression turned icy as he spoke at once, "Fellow Daoist Guixu, your edge is far too sharp. I fear it will bring trouble sooner or later."

The Grandmist Sword Sovereign turned his head and let out a cold laugh. "If anyone seeks trouble today, they must first ask permission from this old man’s sword."

"You..."

Upon hearing this, the complexion of the West Heaven Deity shifted violently, yet he ultimately suppressed the fury in his heart.

The Grandmaster of the Void Sword, wielding the half-step Patriarch-level divine ability—Void Sword Art, stood unparalleled in offensive prowess beneath the ancient immortals within the Qingcang Celestial Realm.

Such a figure even dared to draw his sword against an Ancient Immortal, and remains the only Heavenly Immortal powerhouse within the Qingcang Immortal Domain to have ever slain a Heavenly Immortal at the Great Perfection stage.

If he were to offend the Swordmaster of the Great Emptiness, even the Western Aether Divine Capital would be unable to shield him.

Today, he had come here to collect the debt on behalf of the Western Qi Divine Son, but he dared not speak further, forcibly suppressing the rage burning within him.

"Let him be arrogant for a moment. Should those few make their move, I shall seize the opportunity to strike."

Just as the Western Profound Heaven Deity was seething with inner resentment, the Grand Void Sword Master retrieved another jade slip from his sleeve and handed it to Eldrin (Person Name), saying.

"You have reaped incalculable gains from tribulation crosses, so I presume ordinary gifts would hardly catch your eye."

"This is my secret cultivation art, the Codex of the Void. I've heard you've also studied the laws of space—it may prove useful to you."

"This..."

Eldrin (Person Name) froze momentarily. The Primordial Void Codex was the cultivation technique of the Void Sword Sovereign, its rank reaching the pinnacle of Celestial Immortality. Within its pages lay the Half-Step Patriarch-level divine ability—the Primordial Void Sword Art.

With the aid of this method, Eldrin estimated he could soon cultivate the rules of void to the Innate Realm.

Even his Ethereal Cosmos Sword Qi could potentially be refined into a Half-Step Patriarch-level killing technique.

However, such secret tomes were the exclusive, unshared legacy of the Void Sword Sovereign. Even within the Void Paradise, only a handful of Supreme Elders and figures of the Saint Child rank were permitted to cultivate them.

At this moment, passing it on to Eldrin, an outsider, was truly beyond all expectations.

Seeing Eldrin hesitate, the Grand Emptiness Sword Master transmitted his voice with a smile, "I heard that you and my disciple Daoxu are the closest of friends, so I trust you must be truly reliable."

"This day, I bestow upon you the secret canon. May you and your fellow disciple Daoxu aid 1 another on the path to the Great Luo Heaven in times to come."

"I understand."

Eldrin nodded and ultimately accepted this scroll of the Tai Xu Secret Codex.

At that very moment, the boundless heavens trembled violently as a thunderous roar echoed through the firmament.

But at the horizon's edge, a golden sun tore through the firmament, hanging above the 100 Seas of the Returning Abyss with the power to illuminate all heavens.

That golden radiance blazed with resplendent brilliance, its dazzling glory so intense that even Earth Immortal Patriarchs dared not gaze directly upon it. Only a single majestic voice descended from the luminous expanse.

"Eldrin, you little whelp, come out and face me!"

Golden Crow Ancient Immortal

Eldrin (Person Name) looked up, his expression shifting to 1 of profound gravity.

At that very moment, a melodious flute melody descended from the depths of the firmament. A man clad in white robes appeared, playing a bamboo flute, its soothing notes gently pacifying the scorching radiance of the sun.

Ye Tianxiao (Person Name).

The Golden Crow Ancient Immortal stared at the approaching figure and suddenly spoke with immense gravity, "Do you intend to stand in my way?"

The man in white did not reply, merely turning his gaze toward Eldrin (Person Name).

Eldrin's heart jolted with realization as he immediately discerned the man's identity. He promptly cupped his hands in salute and said, "Greetings, Senior Chunyang."

Within the Vast Azure Immortal Realm, the only human who dared to face the Golden Crow Ancient Immortal was this Ancient Ancestor from the Pure Sun Grotto-Heaven.

"Not bad."

The man in white gave a slight smile and nod to Eldrin, then turned his gaze to the Golden Crow Ancient Immortal and said, "Even if I did not stand in your way, you would not dare to lay a finger on him."

The Golden Crow Ancient Immortal’s expression darkened immediately upon hearing this. It was not that he dared not kill Eldrin (Person Name), but rather that Eldrin (Person Name) now owed a debt to the Heavenly Dao—a single strand of golden karmic light—making him truly unkillable.

Yet that golden sun blazed with such brilliance it illuminated all the heavens, obscuring any trace of his joy or wrath.

He gazed at the Abyssal Grotto before him and declared without hesitation, "Though I cannot kill him, do you truly believe I'm incapable of destroying this Pure Yang Grotto-Heaven of his?"

"A grotto-heaven is a creation of heaven and earth, naturally blessed with accumulated merit."

Pure Yang Patriarch slowly shook his head as he spoke. "Should you destroy these 9 cave heavens, the Karmic Sin Light around you would likely gain over a 100 additional strands."

"What are a 100-some strands of Karmic Blight? If we share the burden together, it is not beyond our endurance."

At that very moment, another voice echoed from the depths of the endless firmament.

Everyone looked up and saw, at the edge of the heavens and earth, an ancient Verdant Luan pulling a war chariot forth.

What sent chills down 1's spine was that the harnessed Primordial Azure Phoenix had already reached the late-stage Celestial Immortal realm in cultivation.

Upon that war chariot stood an ancient god clad in cyan-gold armor, like a primordial deity king crossing endless time and space.

Ancient God of Qingyang.

Pure Yang Patriarch’s brow furrowed slightly as he spoke with gravity, "As 2 esteemed Ancient Immortals of great power, would you truly stoop so low as to disregard your dignity and strike against a mere junior?"

"Hah—"

The Ancient God Qingyang let out a cold sneer, his gaze profound as it fell upon Eldrin (Person Name). "To single-handedly annihilate the accumulated fortunes of our demon and god races over hundreds of millions of years in 1 battle—such a person, I dare not regard as a mere junior."

"Is that so?"

Eldrin (Person Name) maintained a face of serene composure as he drew the Chaos Heavenly Halberd (Magic Treasure) and ascended skyward with measured steps.

Then, he pointed the Chaos Heavenly Halberd at the Eldrin and the Golden Crow Ancient Immortal, declaring, “You 2 have merely lived a few 100 million years longer than I—do you truly believe that is enough to suppress everything?”

"This Sovereign stands before you today. If you wish to destroy these 9 great grotto-heavens, you shall have to tread over this Sovereign’s corpse."

"You—"

The Golden Crow Ancient Immortal was so enraged he nearly laughed, his gaze unfathomably profound as he stared at Eldrin. "Do you truly believe I would not dare to kill you?"

"You are more than welcome to try."

Eldrin stood with the imposing stillness of a deep abyss and towering mountain, his snow-white robes flowing like jade, his divine grace radiant.

In that moment, he stood gripping the Heavenly Halberd atop the 9 Heavens Above, like an ancient Immortal Sovereign gazing across eternity, emanating an aura that defied all creation.
