Chapter 1753 : Ascension to Innate Ancient Treasure
Those with a Dao Embryo below the seventh grade can cultivate at most 1 Precious Body, while a seventh-grade Dao Embryo has the potential to achieve an Indestructible Spirit Body.
The being who had opened the 9 Heavens possessed immense confidence in cultivating the Indestructible Divine Body. As for the Sacred Body, it was truly far too powerful—requiring the opening of 10 divine repositories and forging a Supreme Dao Embryo beyond the Ninth Grade to achieve.
This avatar had opened 9 great divine treasuries, nurtured a 9-grade Dao Embryo, and Eldrin sought out 9 peerless treasures utterly unheard of in the mortal realm, ultimately forging 1 of the most supreme divine bodies.
Undying Godbody.
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly, continuing his cultivation practice. Unbeknownst to him, he had already reached the Perfection of the Indestructible Realm.
Without further delay, he immediately began his assault on the Sacrificial Self Realm. By staking his entire foundational cultivation base, he ultimately succeeded in mastering the Sacrificial Self Realm.
"It worked!"
Eldrin murmured, yet his brow furrowed slightly.
Breaking through to the Sacrificial Realm was perilous beyond measure. Even with his peerless celestial will, he had nearly failed. An ordinary cultivator would have found it utterly impossible to succeed.
"It seems further refinement of the cultivation technique is still required."
Eldrin murmured softly, then surveyed the cultivation progress of this avatar, ultimately creating another several 100 wondrous techniques.
These wondrous techniques encompassed all 7 realms. Some were methods to accumulate foundational strength, some enhanced the likelihood of successful breakthroughs, while others served to reduce the difficulty of ascension.
Eldrin integrated these wondrous techniques into the Path of Self-Devotion, instantly sensing its framework had grown markedly more refined.
Next, he had this avatar abandon its cultivation base and start anew. This time, the path of body refinement was even more perfected. After forging the Martial Dao True Body, a single arm could unleash a force of 100,000 jin with just a flick.
The divine strength of 1 100 1000 jin in a single arm had reached the theoretical limit of the Body Forging Realm, making further advancement nearly impossible.
With this solid foundation, the avatar's renewed cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, far surpassing its previous advancement.
First, he forged a Supreme Dao Foundation surpassing the ninth grade, then unlocked all 10 Divine Sanctums to construct a Supreme Dao Embryo. Furthermore, he cultivated an invincible Sacred Body of unparalleled strength, ultimately breaking through to the Sacrificial Self Realm with combat power capable of challenging immortals.
"Now on par with the foundation of a 3 Ascension Immortal."
Eldrin murmured inwardly, yet he once again severed all his clone cultivation bases and began the cycle of reforging his path anew.
Eldrin then devoted himself to the cultivation of the Sacrificial Path, repeatedly exploring dead-end avenues. He practiced the Fire Fiend Qi, contemplated the Path of Vast Righteousness, and on multiple occasions purged his divine reservoirs entirely to begin anew.
Thus, hundreds of thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye, until 1 day, immaculate immortal light blossomed from the depths of the Returning Abyss, and a world-shaking figure sacrificed everything.
He rose from ruin, emerging from his broken form like a butterfly breaking from its chrysalis, transforming into an invincible figure striding forth.
"My seventh-level Sacrificial Realm holds no more secrets for me."
Gazing at the doppelganger before him, a faint smile surfaced in Eldrin's eyes.
After hundreds of thousands of years of enlightenment, his Path of Self-Sacrifice had reached perfection. The moment this avatar completed its self-sacrifice, it attained combat prowess unrivaled among all Ascension Realm cultivators.
At this point, he had reached the end of the Path of Sacrificial Ascension. Now he could only either follow the orthodox immortal path of physical sanctification, or seek an alternative method.
Eldrin had no intention of having this avatar tread the path of physical sanctification. Instead, he planned for this incarnation to continue contemplating the Way of Sacrificing the Self, seeking to pioneer the possibility of an eighth realm in martial arts.
At this thought, Eldrin withdrew his focus. After a quick calculation, he was startled to discover that 1 100 1000 years had already passed.
"Having been in seclusion for several 100 1000 years, the next great tribulation is drawing near."
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly as he emerged from secluded cultivation and returned to the Abyssal Return Grotto-Heaven.
After emerging from seclusion in the mortal realm, Eldrin was greeted by Lyra's immense joy. She spent several tender days with him before finally asking, "How has your closed-door cultivation benefited you this time?"
Eldrin informed Lyra of the situation, then declared, "The Path of Sacrificial Ascension has been perfected. The remaining trivialities shall be handled by my avatar."
Lyra nodded after listening, unable to contain her delight as she remarked, "If that's the case, it seems the Path of Self-Offering truly holds limitless prospects."
Eldrin nodded with a gentle smile, delightedly sharing numerous insights with Lyra.
After a long silence had passed, he finally spoke: "By my calculations, barely 20-some millennia remain before the Great Cataclysm arrives. Has our clan produced any who wish to enter this tribulation?"
Lyra had long anticipated his inquiry and spoke up, "Qingfeng (Person Name) is fiercely determined. He intends to leverage the Dao Tribulation to break through to the Celestial Immortal realm."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) slightly furrowed his brow.
Generally speaking, orthodox inheritors of blessed realms seldom personally initiate grand tribulations, as these tribulations operate at a relatively lower tier. Even if 1 could trigger such a calamity, it remains uncertain whether they could ultimately cultivate the foundation of the 3 Primordial Ultimates through it.
Moreover, such beings are backed by a grotto-heaven, free from the fear of having their path obstructed by others, and can attempt the breakthrough to the Celestial Immortal realm at any time.
As for a direct descendant of the grotto-heaven like Ye Qingfeng, who had already cultivated the foundation of the 3 Great Primal Breaths, personally descending into the great tribulation was truly an excessive use of his talents.
Lyra guessed Eldrin's thoughts and shook her head. "Because the Great Calamity is approaching, and this tribulation is no ordinary 1."
"As far as I know, no fewer than 10 Third-Level Taiyi Realm(Immortal Cultivation Realm) experts are preparing to undergo their heavenly tribulation this time—far surpassing previous eras."
"Oh?"
Eldrin (Person Name) calculated with his fingers and realized that many factions were still maneuvering behind the scenes. They sought to cultivate more Celestial Immortals to strengthen their foundations before the opportunity of 100 Calamities Rebirth arrived.
At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "Then let Wen Yuan, Yuan Sheng, and the others all enter the tribulation. This great calamity should still be governed by our human race."
Hearing this, Lyra smiled faintly. Eldrin's 3 disciples were all extraordinary talents with Triple Taiyi foundations.
The Grand Disciple Ye Qingfeng had even stepped into the forbidden realm. Such an existence could serve as the protagonist of tribulation even amidst the Dao Calamity, and once he stepped into the great calamity, he would become an almost invincible presence.
By drawing these 3 into the tribulation, even the direct disciples of the Great Luo Ancient Sect would likely face them without a trace of fear.
At this thought, Lyra spoke up, "Then I'll go make some arrangements."
"Let's not be hasty."
Eldrin shook his head and spoke, "I shall first refine a treasure."
As the words faded, Eldrin retrieved a treasure vial shimmering with the light of yin and yang.
"Innate Primordial Qi Vial." Lyra (Person Name) spoke, her voice tinged with pleasant surprise. "Has your Primordial Purple Qi accumulated sufficiently?"
"Hmm."
Eldrin nodded. A single strand of innate Primordial Purple Qi required over 160,000 years to accumulate.
Now, after 8 100 1000 years had passed, and adding the 1 he had accumulated before, Eldrin now held 5 strands of Primordial Purple Qi in his hand.
To elevate the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel to the realm of an Innate Ancient Treasure, at least 6 strands of Primordial Purple Qi were required. Previously, Eldrin had already utilized 1 strand of Primordial Purple Qi to advance this treasure to a mid-grade Innate Treasure. With these additional 5 strands, the requirement was now fully met.
With this thought, Eldrin immediately channeled the Primordial Primordial Purple Qi, merging it into the Heaven and Earth Qi Vial.
As the Primordial Violet Qi merged into the Chaos Origin Vessel, 1 innate dao pattern after another began to coalesce within the treasured bottle.
