Chapter 1917 : A Prodigy's Unrivaled Ascent

The Primordial Abyss Ancient Path [a legendary and perilous trial ground] opens only once per Kalpa Tribulation [a grand cosmic cycle of conflict and renewal], and each time it becomes the stage where the true, peerless prodigies of both sides vie for supremacy.

However, this particular Kalpa Tribulation ultimately held no suspense, for Lyra Jiang, who had cultivated the seven great True Spirit Foundation [the foundational stage of a True Spirit cultivator], exerted a pressure even more terrifying than that of Eldrin Chen in his time.

They traversed the Primordial Chaos Abyss [the primordial chasm of chaos], sweeping aside all opposition in their path. The peerless heroes of the Southern Abyss Seven Celestial Domains and the monstrous prodigies of the Northern Abyss Six Celestial Domains alike proved no match for them.

At the heart of the Chaos Ancient Path, Lyra Jiang Eruption [unleashed her power] in a world-shaking battle against the enemies from the foreign realm. In that clash, she wrought a silence upon the world. Even the monstrous prodigies of the foreign realm who had attained the True Spirit Foundation fell, their corpses littering the earth and sky.

In the end, Lyra Jiang cut through the Primordial Chaos Abyss and stormed into the heart of the Six Domains of the Northern Abyss. In a single campaign, she annihilated three thousand peerless Ancient Immortal [immortals from ancient times] of the Northern Abyss Foreign Domain, and then, besieged by a horde of foes, she fought her way back unscathed.

What sent shivers down the spine was that after this battle, an entire generation of the Northern Abyss Foreign Domain's top-tier prodigies had been nearly exterminated by Lyra Jiang.

"She has returned."

Deep within the True Demon Primal Domain [the most glorious and vast territory], the most magnificent of the Six Domains of the Northern Abyss, a supreme Vorgath [a title for a powerful demon sovereign] opened his eyes, a flicker of icy indifference in his gaze.

Beside him, another peerless Vorgath chuckled, "Having nearly slaughtered a whole generation of Great Luo True Seed [prodigies destined for the Great Luo realm] from the Northern Abyss Foreign Domain, she is announcing her return."

"Lunar Demon Sovereign, it seems your troubles have arrived."

"Hah—"

Lunar Demon Sovereign [the sovereign ruler of lunar and demonic forces] let out a cold laugh, his tone utterly flat as he stated, "He has already lost the Chaos Primordial Qi [the primordial essence of chaos, a supreme treasure for cultivation]. Even if he returns, it will be exceedingly difficult for him to break through to the Chaos Divine Emperor [the realm of a Divine Emperor who commands chaos] realm. What, then, can he possibly do to this seat?"

"The divination from back then was indeed not mistaken. He has truly returned during this Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of destruction and renewal, a time of great tribulation]."

At the same moment, deep within the Three Thousand Immortal Domains [the collective realms of immortals, numbering three thousand], a glint of icy indifference flashed within the gaze of the Solar Celestial Emperor [the Celestial Emperor who embodies the solar principle].

A flicker of killing intent surfaced in his pupils, yet his eyes then turned towards the location of the Primordial Divine Court [the primordial court of the gods]. In the end, he suppressed that murderous thought.

He understood clearly that, due to the karma and camaraderie of the past, the two Divine Emperors of the Primordial Divine Court would not tolerate him taking action. Moreover, the current Lunar Emperor Lord [the Emperor Lord who commands lunar power], now belonging to the Human Race, also enjoyed the protection of the two Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [supreme beings who are both progenitors of the Dao and immortal sages] of the Human Race.

Furthermore, the reincarnated form of the Lunar Emperor Lord, having lost the authority of the Grand Yin [the supreme principle of Yin, representing darkness, passivity, and the moon] and the Starry Great Dao [the Great Dao of the stars and constellations], and now bereft of the Chaos Primordial Qi, was no longer worth him tearing apart all pretense with both the Divine Race and the Human Race.

With this thought, the Solar Celestial Emperor slowly withdrew the light in his eyes, finally allowing all killing intent to dissipate into nothingness.

Just as the hearts and minds of the powerful figures in the northern and southern Heavenly Abyss [a profound and perilous chasm in the heavens] were in flux, Lyra Jiang led her companions through the Primordial Chaos Abyss [the abyss of primordial chaos] and returned to the Southern Abyss Six Domains [the six domains of the Southern Abyss].

She distributed the harvested Dao Source [the source essence of the Dao, a supreme cultivation resource] among her companions, keeping only a small portion for herself that aligned with her own elemental affinities.

Because the acquired Dao Source [a primordial source of spiritual energy and enlightenment] were so numerous, each of the followers of Lyra Jiang received several dozen. After refining these Dao Source, their cultivation bases advanced by leaps and bounds.

Almost every one of them thereby added one or two additional layers to their Indestructible Foundation [the foundational stage of cultivation that is nearly impossible to destroy].

Later on, ordinary Dao Source became ineffective for their refinement, so they all gave theirs to Lulu to help her consolidate her foundational roots.

Lulu successively refined over three thousand top-grade Dao Source, forcibly cultivating a True Spirit Physique [a body constitution of pure and authentic spiritual essence]. This allowed her to forge the three great True Spirit Foundation [foundations of authentic spirit]: her True Spirit Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator, refined to a state of authentic spirit], her physical body, and her Great Dao.

Nyssa Qu also progressed a step further, cultivating her sixth great True Spirit Foundation.

"The Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of catastrophe and renewal] is finally nearing its end. It is time for us to make our breakthrough."

After cultivating their foundations to the absolute limit, they journeyed into the heart of the Eastern Departure Flame Domain. There, they pushed their personal Cosmos [their inner world or universe] away from the Abyssal Immortal Domain and began their Ascension [the process of transcending to a higher realm of existence] to the Realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal [the pinnacle realm of a Golden Immortal, representing ultimate freedom and perfection].

Amidst a sound of World Creation [the divine act of creating a world or universe] that shook the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation], Lyra Jiang cleaved open one hundred and thirty-two heavenly domains. From this feat, she obtained a full twenty-two strands of Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light [a primordial, unbreakable light of spiritual essence born from creation].

She fused fifteen of these Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light strands into her physical body, her Great Dao, and her Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator]. Five strands were used to Ascension her Five Extremities Celestial Pillars [celestial pillars representing the five cardinal directions and extremes of power], while the remainder were preserved.

Nyssa Qu was the second to complete her path to enlightenment. With her six great True Spirit Foundation, she opened one hundred and twenty Eighth Heaven [a specific high-level heavenly domain], gaining eighteen strands of Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light. She fused fourteen strands of Innate Primordial Qi [the primordial energy present at the dawn of creation] into her foundational roots, and integrated the rest into her Five Extremities Celestial Pillars.

Lulu also made her breakthrough during this Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of immense upheaval and tribulation]. However, she did not tread the World-Opening Dao [the Path of World Creation]. Instead, she directly integrated three strands of Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light [a primordial, unbreakable radiance that forms the foundation of reality], thereby triggering a Great Luo Realm [the Grand Luo Realm, a supreme stage of cultivation] breakthrough through the Great Dao itself.

It seemed that due to insufficient Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light and also because her own foundational reserves were lacking, Lulu's strength fell slightly short compared to the other two.

After the trio's breakthrough, both Nyssa Qu and Lyra Jiang possessed combat power at the Mid Great Luo Golden Immortal [Mid-Stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal] level. Only Lulu lagged by half a step; though her strength surpassed the third tier of Grand Luo Golden Immortal [Grand Luo Golden Immortal], she remained half a step away from attaining Mid Great Luo Golden Immortal level combat prowess.

Aside from these three, the Rift-Heaven Demon Emperor also broke through to the Realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal not long after, having forged his Indestructible Foundation [an unshakable cultivation base] across three pillars: his physical body, his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core and true self of a cultivator], and his comprehension of the Laws.

Setting aside the Rift-Heaven Demon Emperor, shortly after the trio's ascension, the calamitous aura within the Chaos [the Primordial Chaos, the formless void before creation] gradually dissipated. This Kalpa Tribulation had finally passed.

On that day, as the last vestiges of calamitous aura vanished into nothingness, Eldrin Chen emerged from his stroll within the Abyssal Immortal Domain and beheld the three who had broken through to Grand Luo: Lyra Jiang, Nyssa Qu, and Lulu.

Gazing upon them, Eldrin Chen could not help but smile faintly. "The three of you have finally achieved your heart's desire."

Nyssa Qu also smiled, a glimmer of joy shining in her eyes. "Now, our Abyssal Immortal Alliance boasts four Grand Luo Golden Immortal venerables within a single alliance. Even among the ancient Great Luo Ancient Sect [the ancient sects of the Grand Luo Realm], we are by no means weak."

Lyra Jiang gave a slight nod. Without further words, she took Eldrin Chen and Nyssa Qu by the hand and led them into the heart of the Exquisite Immortal Domain.

Within the Exquisite Heaven, the core sanctum of the Exquisite Immortal Domain, Lyra Jiang's gaze grew solemn. "During this breakthrough," she said, her voice low, "I awakened certain memories."

Eldrin Chen seemed to have anticipated this. He took Lyra Jiang's hand and said, "No matter who you were in your past life, you are my Dao Companion [a cultivator's lifelong partner on the path of cultivation] now."

Lyra Jiang offered a faint smile, sighed softly, and then began to recount the story of her previous incarnation.

It turned out that Lyra Jiang's past life was none other than the former Lunar Emperor Lord of the Divine Race. Having lost her Dao Authority [the supreme authority over a specific Great Dao] during the cataclysm of the Late Primordial Era, she abandoned all her foundations and accumulated essence to reincarnate, ultimately becoming the Lyra Jiang of the present.

However, the Restoration of Lyra Jiang's memories was incomplete. She could no longer recall why she chose to forsake everything to reincarnate back then, nor the precise method of her rebirth.

One must understand that the former Lunar Emperor Lord, possessing a True Spirit Primordial Spirit [the highest, most indestructible form of a cultivator's spiritual core], was fundamentally an Imperishable existence, utterly immune to true death.

Even after losing her Dao Authority, her True Spirit Primordial Spirit at the Great Perfection of Primordial Emperor Lord realm could have shielded her from falling into Samsara [the endless cycle of death and rebirth]. She could have directly cultivated anew using that Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator], which would have allowed her to at least regain the Primordial Chaos Emperor Monarch realm.

Yet, for reasons unknown, the Lunar Emperor Lord chose not to rebuild her cultivation. Instead, she severed all memories and her Great Dao foundation, burned away every trace of her past life, and began anew from absolute nothingness with a Reincarnation Body.

"Perhaps only by abandoning everything and severing all traces of a past life can one break free from the limitations of former foundations and attain greater potential,"

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, a dawning comprehension in his voice.

He had begun to surmise that for high-realm cultivators, retaining one's Primordial Spirit to cultivate anew might allow for an easy return to one's former power, but it also essentially precluded surpassing one's previous pinnacle.

Conversely, abandoning everything to step into Samsara [the cycle of death and rebirth], though it means losing the foundation and accumulated essence of one's past life, opens the door to far greater possibilities.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "How much of your Restoration [the divine ability to recover past memories and power] memories have you regained now?"

Lyra Jiang pondered for a long moment before replying, "The memories from Restoration are not extensive. My understanding of my past cultivation is incomplete. I have only recalled some secret techniques from the Great Luo Realm [the supreme cultivation realm, representing the pinnacle of existence].

Hearing this, Eldrin Chen understood. Lunar Emperor Lord had laid plans for many years, unwilling to let the memories of a past life influence the Dao Fruit [the ultimate achievement and essence of one's cultivation path] of this current incarnation.

He took a deep breath, a note of concern in his voice. "Given the current circumstances, it is likely that the various Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [the supreme beings who have comprehended the fundamental Dao and attained sagehood] have discerned your origins."

"Do not worry."

Lyra Jiang nodded and continued, "Primordial Beginning Divine Emperor and Purple Tenuity Divine Emperor shared a deep friendship with my former self. Unless Solar Celestial Emperor is truly prepared to tear all pretense of decorum asunder, he will not stoop to acting against me personally."

"Moreover, I have already cultivated a True Spirit Primordial Spirit [the indestructible spiritual core of a supreme cultivator]. It is impossible for him to truly and utterly annihilate me."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen could only nod in agreement.

A True Spirit Primordial Spirit possesses the Imperishable [the divine attribute of being unkillable and eternal] quality. Even a Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage cannot completely extinguish a True Spirit Primordial Spirit. At most, they can slay it time and again, forcing it into an endless, dreamless slumber.

However, the Tri-Polar Primal Domain is not the sole dominion of the Solar Celestial Emperor [the supreme ruler of the sun and heavens], nor can he even be definitively called the foremost power within the Three Thousand Immortal Domains. The Primordial Beginning Divine Emperor of the Divine Race and the Primordial Beginning Dao Ancestor of the Human Race are likely not inferior to him in might.

As the saying goes, all beneath the Celestial Emperor are but ants. Unless the moment truly arrives to contend for the Chaos Primordial Qi [the primordial energy from which all creation sprang], the moment when Lyra Jiang possesses the qualification to vie for the Celestial Emperor's Opportunity [a pivotal chance for ascension or breakthrough], she is not yet worth the Solar Celestial Emperor tearing apart all decorum with the several Divine Emperor Dao Progenitor [a supreme realm beyond the Celestial Emperor].

After all, the Solar Celestial Emperor does not stand alone. He has descendants of his bloodline and sworn brothers, and he is one of the sovereigns of the Three Thousand Immortal Domains. If matters truly escalated to the point of overturning the board, forcing the Human and Divine races to unite completely, the Demonic Celestial Court might not be able to withstand their combined might.

"There is no need to dwell on it. We are not yet worthy of the Solar Celestial Emperor's direct concern,"

Lyra Jiang spoke, still with a smile gracing her lips. "This time, Aurelius fell within the Nirvana Ancient Land. That place holds a contingency left by the Solar Celestial Emperor, which will likely allow him to cultivate the Three True Spirit Foundations [the pinnacle foundation for a supreme cultivator] in the future."

"From this perspective, the Solar Celestial Emperor likely foresaw my return during this Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of destruction and renewal], and thus used my hand to help Aurelius break and then transcend his limits."

Eldrin Chen nodded upon hearing this. "Using a powerful foe to force a dissolution of the self, then supplementing it with a vast ocean of peerless treasures and the Nirvana Rebirth [a supreme ability of rebirth through destruction] of the Nirvana Ancient Land, thereby achieving the conditions for breaking the old to establish the new, for great destruction leading to great creation, and ultimately cultivating the three True Spirit Foundation."

"The Solar Celestial Emperor indeed employs masterful stratagems."

As he spoke, Eldrin Chen added with a meaningful tone, "One merely wonders if that Celestial Emperor can foresee what the next Kalpa Tribulation will bring?"

Upon hearing this, Nyssa Qu could no longer contain her curiosity. "The next Kalpa Tribulation? Could there truly be someone in the next cycle capable of suppressing Aurelius?"

"There is," Eldrin Chen nodded, then shook his head and said, "But some matters are safest when known by the fewest."

Hearing this, Nyssa Qu wisely refrained from further inquiry.

Afterwards, Eldrin Chen conversed with the two of them at length, finally instructing them to enter seclusion to consolidate their cultivation bases.

Only then did Eldrin Chen begin to observe their Immortal Domain [a cultivator's personal realm, a pocket dimension that grows with their power]. The Immortal Domain of Nyssa Qu and Lyra Jiang were both exceedingly vast. Though they could not compare to Eldrin Chen's Abyssal Immortal Domain, their size was not inferior to many mid-grade Immortal Domain.

As agreed upon earlier, their two Immortal Domain were positioned approximately eight hundred thousand Dao-paths [a measure of cosmic distance] away from the Abyssal Immortal Domain.

This distance was considered extremely remote for a Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a supreme immortal who has transcended the mortal coil], yet it was not overly distant for an Eight Tribulation Ancient Immortal [an immortal who has survived eight heavenly tribulations]. They could traverse it in merely one or two thousand years.

For a Grand Luo Golden Immortal [a golden immortal of the highest order], it was akin to the distance of one's own doorstep.

The three Immortal Domain formed a triangular formation. The Abyssal Immortal Domain was positioned forward, facing the outer reaches of the Chaos Sea [the primordial, formless expanse between ordered realms], while the domains of the other two were nestled within.

Thus arranged, the three Immortal Domain formed a pincer formation. Should any one Immortal Domain come under attack, the other two could provide support within a very short span of time.

And at the very center, sheltered by the three Immortal Domain, lay the most ideal location for a Chaos Beast King [a powerful beast born from the raw energies of chaos] breeding ground.

"Three full Immortal Domain [a realm governed by an immortal]. The Innate Primordial Qi [the primordial energy from which all things are born] and Chaos Beast King [powerful beasts born from primal chaos] born within the hunting grounds of each during every Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle culminating in a great cataclysm] have increased by at least three to fivefold. It seems our cultivation resources will be greatly augmented in the days to come."

While the two were in seclusion consolidating their cultivation bases, Eldrin Chen opened up a vast Chaos Celestial Domain [a domain within the primal chaos, distinct from an Immortal Domain] between the three Immortal Domain.

This Chaos Celestial Domain was composed of tens of thousands of Chaos Nest [breeding grounds for chaos beasts], theoretically capable of nurturing over a million Chaos Beast King simultaneously.

After handling this matter, Eldrin Chen relocated a great number of Chaos Ancient Beast [ancient beasts of chaos] into it, and only then did he arrange for personnel to begin managing the Chaos Celestial Domain.

It was only at this point that Eldrin Chen realized manpower was once again somewhat insufficient.

As he did not possess much Innate Primordial Qi, Eldrin Chen could only assign Path of Self-Sacrifice [a cultivation path that emphasizes sacrifice for greater power] cultivators to garrison it.

Fortunately, over the past ages, the number of Path of Self-Sacrifice cultivators from the Abyssal Immortal Domain who had broken through to the Cosmos Realm [a realm where one embodies a cosmos within] had gradually increased, now exceeding one thousand five hundred.

These Path of Self-Sacrifice Cosmos Realm Immortal [an immortal cultivator] each harbored a Cosmos [a miniature universe] within their bodies, allowing them to traverse the Chaos Sea [the boundless ocean of primal chaos] with their physical forms. They were barely sufficient for managing the newly opened Chaos Celestial Domain.

Furthermore, due to the ample supply of Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill [a supreme elixir refined through nine cycles], the average cultivation level of the ten thousand Celestial Soldiers and Generals [elite immortal troops] under Eldrin Chen's command had now reached the Late Celestial Immortal Realm [the advanced stage of the Celestial Immortal realm].

Though this elite force was small in number, each individual possessed formidable strength, capable of fighting one against ten ordinary celestial soldiers. Deploying several thousand to garrison the domain was a barely feasible, if strained, arrangement.

Of course, this was only a temporary measure. As the numbers of Chaos Ancient Beast and Chaos Beast King within the Central Chaos Celestial Domain continued to swell, Eldrin Chen would need to station at least tens of thousands of Celestial Soldiers and Generals, or perhaps ten thousand Celestial Immortal [immortals who have ascended to the celestial realm] at the Great Perfection stage, to maintain its full operational capacity.

Returning to the main thread, during the very process of Eldrin Chen establishing the Central Chaos Celestial Domain, the Human Race Immortal Court [the supreme governing body for human immortals] made immediate contact with him.

This time, the Immortal Domain [a general term for the realms governed by the Immortal Court] sought out Eldrin Chen with a request: to represent the Immortal Court and formally invite the three newly ascended Grand Luo [the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm, a pinnacle stage of cultivation] to join the ranks of the Human Race Immortal Court.

Once the trio concluded their secluded cultivation, Eldrin Chen presented them with the official missive from the Immortal Court and said with a smile, "The intention from the Immortal Court is for Lyra to take up a formal position within their ranks directly."

"As for Lulu and Nyssa, they are to be granted the honorary title of Honorary Immortal Lord."

Upon hearing this, all three smiled faintly. Lyra Jiang was the first to speak. "I presume you have already agreed on our behalf?"

"Indeed."

Eldrin Chen nodded, then looked towards Lulu and Nyssa Qu. "Nyssa is of the Immortal Clam Race [a race of immortal clam spirits], and Lulu hails from the Immortal Deer Clan, one of the esteemed Hundred Immortal Spirit Races [a collective term for various immortal spirit races]."

"Black Abyss Great Emperor has agreed to my request to grant you both the status of Honorary Immortal Lord, conferring upon you privileges and standing equivalent to that of a human Immortal Lord [a title for a powerful immortal, often a Grand Luo Golden Immortal]."

Both women nodded in understanding. Lulu's eyes then sparkled with curiosity as she asked, "With this integration into the ranks of Immortal Lord, will there be a Great Luo Immortal Banquet [a grand celestial feast held to celebrate an ascension to the Grand Luo realm]?"

"Yes, they are treated equally."

Eldrin Chen nodded and said with a smile.

The Honorary Immortal Lord title of the Human Race Immortal Court [the supreme governing body of the human race's cultivators] is, in general, exceedingly rare. Typically, it is only bestowed upon the Dao companions of Human Race Immortal Lord [a powerful immortal cultivator] and Emperor Lords. Additionally, some Imperial Scions and disciples of Grand Luo Golden Immortal [a supreme immortal realm] may also be granted the privilege of the Honorary Immortal Lord title.

Even for the Dao companion of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, becoming an Honorary Immortal Lord is not necessarily easy. Their background must be thoroughly investigated, their lineage confirmed as pure and untainted before the title can be conferred. The slightest hint of doubt can lead to the application being suspended by the high echelons of the Immortal Court.

However, once one becomes an Honorary Immortal Lord, they are treated almost identically to a Human Race Immortal Lord in terms of resources and privileges.

The sole distinction is that an Honorary Immortal Lord is not a member of the Human Race by birth, and therefore cannot enter the highest echelons of power within the Immortal Court.

Aside from the few Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage [a legendary progenitor of the Dao], in truth, only a mere dozen or so individuals are qualified to enter that supreme core of power. The vast majority of Human Race Emperor Lords cannot set foot within it, so possessing or lacking this access makes little practical difference for an Honorary Immortal Lord.

After explaining the situation, Eldrin Chen said with a smile, "Thirty thousand years from now, Lyra will host the first Great Luo Immortal Banquet [a grand celestial celebration], and the three of you will hold yours in succession."

"We still have some time. Let us go and make our preparations."

Upon hearing this, smiles graced their faces. Nyssa Qu could not help but remark, "In the span of a mere two Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of immense duration], just over one hundred million years, our clan has already produced four Grand Luo [supreme immortals]. Truly, the present is incomparable to the past."

"Indeed," Eldrin Chen nodded, yet still advised, "At present, the Abyssal Immortal Alliance still possesses some Great Luo True Seed [a supreme destiny seed representing the potential to reach the apex of the Great Luo realm]. For us, with each passing Kalpa Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial marking the end of a cosmic cycle], our strength grows incrementally. For now, it is best not to draw excessive attention."

"You have only just achieved your breakthroughs. The path ahead should be one of quiet cultivation and discretion."

The three of them nodded in agreement upon hearing this. Nyssa Qu then spoke, "There is still some time before the Immortal Banquet, but I intend to first journey to the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain."

"The Immortal Clam Race [a race of immortal mollusks known for their wisdom and longevity] contributed greatly to your path to enlightenment." Eldrin Chen acknowledged with a slight nod. "I shall accompany you on this journey to the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain."

"Very well."

A gentle, warm smile graced Nyssa Qu's features upon hearing his words.

Once the decision to visit the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain was made, neither of them saw reason for further delay.

At dawn the very next day, Eldrin Chen left Lyra Jiang and Lulu to safeguard the three Immortal Domain [realms of immortal beings, often vast territories suffused with immortal energy], while he himself departed for the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain with Nyssa Qu.

For this journey, Eldrin Chen also brought along Glazed Qu. The bond between Glazed Divine Lord and Nyssa Qu was one of deep sisterhood, akin to that of master and disciple.

The Seven-Colored Immortal Domain had long been a sacred land in the heart of Glazed Qu, a destination she yearned for but lacked the requisite strength to reach.

Following Nyssa Qu and Eldrin Chen on this journey might well be a Opportunity [a pivotal moment or chance encounter that can alter one's destiny] that fate itself had woven for her.

The group cleaved through the Void [the formless, empty space between realms], arriving unknowingly at the periphery of the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain. Before them stretched the vast and magnificent expanse of the Immortal Domain [a realm governed by immortal laws and suffused with dense spiritual energy].

The Seven-Colored Immortal Domain was a realm of immense grandeur. It floated within the Chaos Sea [a primordial, turbulent expanse of unformed energies], its territory encompassing as many as one hundred and eight heavenly domains. In its sheer scale, it rivaled even the Great Cold Immortal Domain.
