Chapter 1923 : Thunderclap Talisman's Divine Wrath

Seeing that if the battle continued like this, the three Primordial Chaos Golden Roc and others at the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Early Stage were very likely to be defeated and flee, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc could no longer remain seated.

With a sudden surge, he soared into the air. With a flick of his sleeve, he affixed a Thunderclap divine talisman onto his Thunderclap Immortal Sword.

In that instant, the sword radiance of the Purple Heavenly Thunderclap Immortal Sword erupted, transforming into a world-shaking sword aura that cleaved through the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] as it slashed towards Eldrin Chen.

"A Great Path [the supreme, fundamental principle governing all existence] Divine Talisman."

Witnessing this, Eldrin Chen's brow furrowed slightly.

The Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc had unleashed a Great Encompassing Divine Talisman. Such divine talismans were forged from the bark of the Innate Spiritual Root [a legendary tree embodying the origin of spiritual power], often bestowing astonishing, earth-shaking power. They represented the ultimate form of talismanic arts.

The grade of this particular divine talisman had reached the Late Stage Great Encompassing Golden Immortal level. Moreover, it was a rare talisman that amplified Great Path power, capable of temporarily elevating the potency of the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc's Great Path techniques to the level of a Late Stage Great Encompassing Golden Immortal.

One could say that, without resorting to Forbidden Divine Ability [a supreme, reality-defying technique with severe consequences], this was the absolute limit of conventional means for a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Mid Stage.

"To possess such a trump card... truly worthy of a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal who has lived through tens of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years]," Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, a glint of cold resolve flashing in his eyes.

A silent whisper echoed in Eldrin Chen's heart, his gaze sharpening with a chilling intensity.

Yet, Eldrin Chen remained utterly unafraid. With a flick of his sleeve, he summoned forth the Returning Abyss Seal [a powerful seal artifact capable of suppressing vast energies].

In that instant, the Returning Abyss Seal shattered the surrounding Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] and transformed into a Chaos Ancient Cauldron [an ancient cauldron artifact embodying the power of primordial chaos] that seemed capable of suppressing all eternity. It descended with overwhelming force, instantly clashing with the Thunderclap Immortal Sword [a divine sword that strikes with the fury of heavenly thunder].

Simultaneously, Eldrin Chen himself transformed into a streak of Path Void [a state of being one with the void, often associated with supreme sword techniques] sword energy that pierced through the air, charging directly at the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc [a mythical avian demon beast born from chaos and thunder].

"Spatial Divine Ability [a supreme supernatural power or technique] again?"

Electric light flashed within the pupils of the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc. It instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished, reappearing on the other side of the Chaos, narrowly evading Eldrin Chen's Limitless Cosmos Sword [a sword art that embodies the boundless expanse of the cosmos].

Having dodged this strike, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc condensed a spear of Chaos thunder in its grasp and thrust it forward. The attack landed precisely on Eldrin Chen, who was in a state of unity with his sword, forcing him to retreat hastily.

Immediately after, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc let out a cold laugh and struck again. It summoned a cataclysmic Thunderclap [a deafening blast of thunder] that seemed capable of shattering the vault of heaven itself. An endless tide of Thunderclap Force [the destructive power unleashed by a supreme thunderclap technique] completely engulfed Eldrin Chen.

"Having witnessed this Divine Ability of yours before, did you truly believe I would be unprepared?"

"Is that so?"

Yet, in that very moment, Eldrin Chen emerged, bathed in the Sea of Thunder [a vast, ocean-like manifestation of thunderous power], and in the next instant, he was already locked in fierce combat with the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc, the Crimson Flame Firefly [a weapon or artifact glowing with crimson flame] firmly in his grasp.

Yet at that very moment, the Returning Abyss Seal on the other side transformed from a Great Cauldron into the Polarity Void Mirror. With its Chaos Primordial Magnetism Void Force [a fundamental force born from primordial chaos that can lock and suppress], it firmly ensnared the Thunderclap Immortal Sword.

"Disaster!"

The Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc [a mythical avian beast born from primordial chaos and thunder] paled, immediately trying to recall its Lifebound Immortal Treasure [a treasure forged with one's life essence and soul, sharing a profound connection].

But Eldrin Chen seized the chance to close the distance. His entire Great Path [the supreme cultivation method he follows], his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator], and his mana were all channeled into bolstering his physical body.

Meanwhile, the five True Spirit Divine Runes [divine symbols representing the power of true spirits]—Primordial Solar [the purest yang energy of the sun], Profound Darkness [the profound essence of yin and shadow], Source Earth [the foundational power of the earth], Life, and Mixed Metal [an art of blending metallic essences]—all erupted with dazzling radiance, pushing Eldrin Chen's physical power to its absolute zenith.

"BOOM—"

With a deafening crash, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc was sent flying by Eldrin Chen's fist, a mouthful of blood spraying from its beak.

The moment it was wounded, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc's control over the Thunderclap Immortal Sword wavered for a fraction of a second.

This top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure [a treasure born from one's innate spiritual root, possessing immense potential] could originally contend directly with the Returning Abyss Seal. Bolstered by the Great Path divine talisman, it had even managed to slightly suppress the Seal.

But now, facing the inherent suppression of the True Spirit Supreme Treasure [a treasure of the highest order, embodying a true spirit's power], the 'Polarity Void Mirror', the Thunderclap Immortal Sword was already at a disadvantage. With its master wounded, the sword was completely overwhelmed by the Polarity Void Mirror, nearly on the verge of being seized outright.

"No—!"

Watching his Companion Supreme Treasure [a supreme-grade magical treasure that is intrinsically bound to a specific being, growing and evolving alongside them] on the verge of being seized, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc [a primordial avian demon beast of immense power, born from the chaos of creation] could no longer remain idle.

He instantly spat out a mouthful of blood, paying the price of burning his Great Encompassing True Blood [the condensed essence of a cultivator's life force and cultivation base] to forcibly aid the Thunderclap Immortal Sword [an immortal-grade sword that unleashes thunderous power] in breaking free from its predicament.

Then, no longer clinging to the fight, he instantly leveraged his speed to charge into the distance, exchanged a single blow with Exquisite Jiang, and then swept up the Primordial Chaos Golden Roc [a primordial avian demon beast with golden plumage, kin to the Thunder Roc] before departing.

"Withdraw—!"

Regarding this, Eldrin Chen did not give chase.

He understood clearly that the reason the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc had retreated this time was solely because its Companion Supreme Treasure was being countered and it feared its bonded Immortal Sword [a sword of immortal grade, a weapon of immense power for cultivators] would be captured. It was not that it truly lacked the strength for a fight.

In truth, the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc had not yet truly Burst [unleashed or activated] its trump cards. A supreme expert of this caliber, at the Sixth Layer Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [the sixth level of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm, a pinnacle stage of immortal cultivation], once it unleashes its Forbidden Divine Ability [a divine ability of immense power, often with severe costs or restrictions] and various hidden reserves, even possesses the potential to trade one for one with a Seventh Layer Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [the seventh level of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm].

If the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc were truly forced to fight with its life on the line, Eldrin Chen would likely end up in a state of mutual devastation with it.

After all, Eldrin Chen's current cultivation was merely at the second layer of Great Encompassing Golden Immortal. The gap in their realms was still far too vast.

"Make haste."

In the very instant the Primordial Chaos Thunder Roc fled in defeat, the other Chaos Demon Gods also scattered in a desperate bid for survival.

Under ordinary circumstances, with Eldrin Chen and the others joining forces, and the Polarity Void Mirror's power to seal the Chaos, they might have had a chance to capture one or two of them.

However, this was a critical moment in Snow Soul Immortal Lord's revival. Unwilling to complicate matters, Eldrin Chen let them depart.

Only then did Eldrin Chen turn his gaze towards the great rift in the Chaos. From within it, a woman of breathtaking beauty, clad in a gown of white gossamer, stepped forth. She offered a graceful bow to the assembly.

"I, Snow Soul, offer my deepest gratitude for your lifesaving grace."

Eldrin Chen offered a gentle smile. "You are kin to Nyssa. It was only right that we intervened."

Snow Soul Immortal Lord returned the smile, her eyes settling on Nyssa Qu. "Through the vast eons of the Primordial Beginning, across the boundless stretches of the Primordial Era, after countless ages... our Immortal Clam Clan has finally nurtured another Nine-Colored Immortal Clam."

Nyssa Qu spoke up then. "This is no place to linger. Let us return."

"Agreed."

The Snow Soul Immortal Lord also nodded. After tens of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles], she had finally awakened from her slumber, and a rare flicker of excitement stirred within her gaze.

"..."

With the Snow Soul Immortal Lord now revived, the group wasted no further time.

Eldrin Chen led them immediately towards the Primordial Immortal Domain, observing the condition of the Snow Soul Immortal Lord as they traveled.

As a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal who had attained the Dao during the Primordial Era, the Snow Soul Immortal Lord possessed extraordinary strength and cultivation. Having lived for hundreds of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation, her cultivation at its peak had even reached the Sixth Layer Great Encompassing Golden Immortal.

One should not underestimate this Sixth Layer Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm. It must be understood that Great Encompassing Golden Immortal of the Primordial Era were exceedingly rare existences.

Within the present Three Thousand Immortal Domains, there are at least tens of thousands of Great Encompassing Golden Immortal, but over eighty percent of them have ascended within the last ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation.

The primary reason for this proliferation of Great Encompassing Golden Immortal is the Immortal Domain Art [a supreme method for creating an Immortal Domain], created by the Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor.

Prior to ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation ago, very few cultivated using the modern methods. Although Great Encompassing Golden Immortal of the Primordial Era also opened Immortal Domain, they lacked the wisp of Innate Spiritual Essence [the primordial spiritual substance released during a realm breakthrough] triggered by cultivation advancement, and thus could not obtain the Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light [a foundational, indestructible spiritual radiance].

In that era, when Great Encompassing Golden Immortal opened an Immortal Domain, their reasons were simply to acquire Innate Energy [primordial foundational energy], or to create a cultivation Path-Field [a personal domain for pursuing one's Dao].

Considering that sustaining an Immortal Domain [a self-contained realm governed by an immortal] requires at least one Innate Spiritual Root [a primordial spiritual anchor that stabilizes a realm], those capable of opening such domains during the Primordial Era [the mythic age of creation] were typically top-tier Great Encompassing [a supreme cultivation stage] powerhouses at the Late Stage Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [the pinnacle of the Golden Immortal realm] level.

Since they could not open an Immortal Domain to obtain the Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light [a fundamental, indestructible spiritual radiance], the key to advancing to Great Encompassing Golden Immortal in the Primordial Era lay not merely in shattering the Nine Heavenly Passes [nine celestial barriers of tribulation], but in securing this most crucial cultivation resource.

Throughout the Primordial Era, spanning millions of Kalpa Tribulation [cosmic cycles of destruction and rebirth], prodigies who shattered the nine Great Encompassing Heavenly Pass [the supreme celestial barriers] were almost beyond counting. Yet, the vast majority ultimately vanished into the River of Space-Time [the flowing continuum of time and space].

Calculating thus, it becomes clear that for Snow Soul Immortal Lord to become one of the thirteen Great Encompassing Golden Immortal of the Immortal Clam Clan, she could not have been an ordinary figure in her time.

Yet now, Snow Soul Immortal Lord's aura was exceedingly faint. Her physical body, Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator], and magical power had only just Recovery [recovered] to the level of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Early Stage.

To continue her Recovery, she would need to consume vast quantities of resources.

Of course, given the wealth accumulated by the Immortal Clam Clan, it was likely Snow Soul Immortal Lord would achieve a complete Recovery before long.

After discerning Snow Soul Immortal Lord's condition, Eldrin Chen immediately produced some Soul Nourishing Wood [a spiritual wood that nourishes the soul] and resources like the Ten Revolutions Immortal Pill [a supreme elixir refined through ten cycles] to aid her Recovery. Then, he piloted the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] ancient vessel, navigating continuously through the Chaos.

Thus, time flowed on, and before they knew it, they had returned to the outskirts of the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain.

"We have arrived."

Gazing upon the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain before him, Eldrin Chen spoke with a gentle smile.

Almost at the same moment, a figure of breathtaking beauty emerged from within the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain, none other than the clan leader of the Immortal Clam Clan [a clan of cultivators descended from or associated with immortal clams], the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord.

"Sister..."

The instant she saw the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord, the Snow Soul Immortal Lord was overcome with emotion. Her eyes reddening, she flew forward to meet her.

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled warmly, taking her hand. "It is good to have you back," she said.

With these words, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord invited Eldrin Chen and the others into the Seven-Colored Immortal Domain. Then, turning to them, she offered a deep and solemn bow. "My sister's safe return is entirely thanks to your aid. I am truly and profoundly grateful."

"Given the bond between us, it was only right,"

Eldrin Chen replied with a soft smile, gently helping the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord to rise.

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord merely smiled again. With a wave of her sleeve, several Immortal Consorts [female attendants or consorts of high-ranking immortals] approached, each bearing a tray.

Eldrin Chen focused his gaze and saw that upon each tray rested a radiant Immortal Artifact [a supreme-grade magical treasure forged by or for an immortal], and every single one was a rare and peerless divine object.

"Violet Flame Immortal Marrow, Creation Verdant Lotus, Frost Soul Immortal Gold."

Gazing upon the treasures laid before him, Eldrin Chen felt a profound tremor in his heart. Each of the items brought by the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord was a peerless Rare Spiritual Wonders, their grades not a single one falling below the level of an Innate Spiritual Treasure [a supreme treasure born from the essence of heaven and earth].

The three most valuable among them were comparable to an Upper Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure [the highest tier of treasures born from natural law], and they resonated perfectly with the cultivation paths of his three companions—Verdant Consort, Violet Consort Yan, and Lila. It was clear they had been specially prepared for them.

Though his spirit was deeply stirred by such treasures, Eldrin Chen spoke with restraint, "The gifts you offer, Fellow Daoist, are far too precious. Moreover, you have already bestowed the Sun, Moon, and Star Divine Pearls. We truly feel unworthy of accepting these treasures as well."

Exquisite Jiang also nodded in agreement, gently declining, "Please, Fellow Daoist, take them back."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled warmly before replying, "My Immortal Clam Clan has inherited its legacy across millions of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years]. Our accumulated heritage [profound legacy and foundational resources] ranks among the foremost even within the Hundred Immortal Spirit Races."

"Compared to Sister Snow Soul, these treasures are but trifles."

Hearing this, the Snow Soul Immortal Lord nodded in affirmation. "It is not just for me. In the future, our other sisters may also seek your aid. Please, accept these gifts."

So saying, the Snow Soul Immortal Lord pushed the treasures toward Nyssa Qu. After a moment of contemplation, she then drew from her sleeve a scroll of Ancient Scripture and presented it to Eldrin Chen, explaining,

"Since my fall in the Primordial Era [the mythic age of creation], I have revived over three hundred times. Through these cycles of awakening and slumber, I have comprehended and compiled this volume of secret arts."

"This method holds a certain profound mystery. Consider it an additional token of our gratitude," he said, presenting it as a gift to the group.

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen accepted the ancient scroll and replied, "In that case, we would be remiss to decline such generosity."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled warmly and proceeded to host a lavish banquet in their honor.

"..."

Not long after, Eldrin Chen led the group back to the Returning Abyss Immortal Domain.

Once within the Returning Abyss Immortal Domain, Eldrin Chen and the other Great Encompassing Golden Immortal cultivators gathered in his abode to assess the spoils of their journey.

The rewards from their mission to rescue the Snow Soul Immortal Lord were exceedingly bountiful. Even setting aside the Innate Supreme Treasure known as the 'Creation Cauldron', the treasures they had acquired were astonishing in their own right.

Eldrin Chen took stock and found the gains originated from two sources: the Celestial Ox Demon God and the gifts bestowed by the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord.

The Celestial Ox Demon God, whose cultivation had stagnated at the third level of Great Encompassing Golden Immortal for thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles], had amassed a truly staggering hoard of treasures.

Among them were three strands of Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light [a primal, unbreakable spiritual radiance], a single mass of 'Great Path Origin' [the primordial essence of the supreme Dao], two Lower Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure [treasures born of heaven and earth, of the lowest innate grade], and one Innate Spirit Fruit [a fruit of heaven-born spiritual potency].

Among these treasures, the Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light [a primordial, unbreakable spiritual radiance] goes without saying—it undoubtedly represents the entirety of the Celestial Ox Demon God's accumulated wealth over the years.

It must be understood that a single low-grade Great Encompassing Nest [a cosmic lair of immense scale] can only give birth to nine strands of Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light. Setting aside what is needed for a Lifebound Spiritual Treasure [a treasure bound to one's life force] and for advancing to the Great Encompassing [a supreme cultivation realm], the fact that the Celestial Ox Demon God still had three strands remaining is considered quite impressive.

As for the Great Path Origin [the primordial essence of the supreme Dao], it is the most crucial refining material for the Great Path Immortal Pill [a supreme immortal elixir].

This substance can only be nurtured within a Chaos Lair [a primordial dwelling place born from chaos] of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [Golden Immortal of the Great Encompassing realm] level, and even a Low-Grade Chaos Lair can produce at most one portion.

Once the Great Path Origin is taken, the foundational essence of the Great Encompassing Rank Chaos Lair will be severely depleted. It could even cause the Great Encompassing Nest's grade to fall, requiring a vast expenditure of resources just to maintain the Chaos Lair's current rank.

The Great Encompassing Golden Immortal of the Immortal Domain [the realm of immortals] typically use the Great Path Origin to refine the Great Path Immortal Pill, employing it to advance to the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Mid Stage [Mid Stage of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm].

The Chaos Demon God [Primordial Chaos Demon Gods], however, are more direct; they often directly refine and absorb the Great Path Origin, though this method results in significant waste.

The two Lower Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure [Innate Spiritual Treasures of lower grade] were the Celestial Ox Battle Armor and the Immortality Divine Edge [Divine Blade of Immortality], both treasures born alongside the Celestial Ox Demon God.

The Innate Spirit Fruit [Innate Spiritual Fruit] was named the 'Enlightenment Immortal Fruit' [Fruit of Immortal Enlightenment]. This fruit could enhance an Immortal's [an immortal being's] comprehension. When used during a breakthrough attempt, it also increased the likelihood of successfully advancing to the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Mid Stage.

"The Great Path Origin, the Enlightenment Immortal Fruit, plus three strands of Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light."

"It seems the resources for Celestial Ox Demon God to break through to the Great Encompassing [the realm of a Golden Immortal] mid-stage are almost fully prepared."

Looking at the several treasures in his hand, Eldrin Chen could not help but smile with a meaningful expression.

Seeing this, Exquisite Jiang also smiled and spoke, "If he were not coveting Snow Soul Immortal Lord's Opportunity and Fortune, he would likely have a fair chance of a successful breakthrough."

"A pity he got involved in this affair and, in a muddled state, accepted the Tribulation [a karmic trial or calamity]."

Eldrin Chen also nodded in agreement. Celestial Ox Demon God's preparations could be considered thorough, yet due to his own insufficient foundation and bloodline heritage, achieving a breakthrough would be exceedingly difficult.

Both the Great Path Origin [the primordial essence of the Great Dao] and the Enlightenment Immortal Fruit were treasures of extraordinary value, each worth four or five strands of Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light. If used by a single Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Early Stage cultivator, they should provide a four or five in ten chance of breaking through to the Great Encompassing mid-stage.

However, Chaos Demon God [primordial demonic beings born from chaos], while innately powerful due to their bloodline, are also constrained by the limitations of their own Innate [inborn] heritage and foundation.

Celestial Ox Demon God's foundation was akin to one who had broken through to Great Encompassing via the Ninth Limit Great Path Heavenly Pass method. It was not much better than that of White Lotus Holy Mother, and in terms of potential for growth, it was arguably even inferior.

With such a foundation, even after gathering these two Rare Spiritual Wonders, the odds of breaking through to Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Mid Stage would be, at most, one or two in ten.

It was precisely for this reason that Celestial Ox Demon God had involved himself in Snow Soul Immortal Lord's Hundred Tribulations Rebirth Opportunity [a profound opportunity for rebirth through enduring numerous tribulations], hoping to seize the chance to slightly increase his odds of reaching Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Mid Stage.

"A pity," Eldrin Chen murmured, a trace of regret in his voice.

Eldrin Chen shook his head, then carefully stored away the Great Path Origin [the primordial essence of the supreme Dao], the Enlightenment Immortal Fruit [a miraculous fruit that can grant profound insights into the Dao], and the Innate Indestructibility Spirit Light [a primal spiritual radiance embodying unbreakable durability]. He intended to preserve them as foundational treasures for his clan's future.

Afterwards, he also placed the Celestial Ox Battle Armor [a set of divine armor forged from the essence of a Heavenly Ox] and the Immortality Divine Edge [a divine blade that channels the concept of eternal life] into the Clan Treasury. These two precious artifacts would serve as cornerstones of the clan's heritage.

Notably, the Immortality Divine Edge had not yet been fused with any Great Path [a supreme cultivation law or principle]. This made it a perfect hidden trump card, one that could potentially aid a clan member in breaking through to the realm of an Eight Tribulations Ancient Immortal.

Next, Eldrin Chen retrieved the gifts bestowed by the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord. This time, the Immortal Lord had presented five portions of Innate Heavenly God Object [a primordial material born of heaven and earth, used by divine beings], clearly intending one for each of them.

Eldrin Chen kept the Violet Flame Immortal Marrow [a marrow-like substance imbued with violet immortal flames], the Creation Verdant Lotus [a lotus born at the dawn of creation, symbolizing life and purity], and the Frost Soul Immortal Gold [a rare metal as cold as eternal frost and as radiant as an immortal's soul] for himself.

Two portions of Innate Heavenly God Object remained. One was the 'Nine-Colored Galaxy Sand' [a sand that glimmers with the light of nine-colored galaxies], and the other was a piece of Reincarnation Immortal Jade [a jade that seems to contain the cycles of death and rebirth].

The Nine-Colored Galaxy Sand was a supreme treasure for artifact refinement. Moreover, its properties resonated perfectly with Gentle Deer's Nine-Colored Immortal Sword, clearly meant for her. Eldrin Chen handed it to her without a second thought.

Upon receiving it, Gentle Deer held the sand with evident delight, almost reluctant to let it go. The Nine-Colored Galaxy Sand was an exceedingly rare refining material. Even a small amount could significantly elevate the grade of an Innate Spiritual Treasure [a treasure born with the world, possessing innate spiritual power].

If she fused the Nine-Colored Galaxy Sand into her Nine-Colored Immortal Sword, the sword—whose power already approached that of an Upper Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—would very likely ascend completely to that exalted tier.

Only the Reincarnation Immortal Jade [a legendary jade said to contain the essence of reincarnation] remained, which contained the Reincarnation Great Path [a profound cultivation method centered on the cycle of rebirth]. As it was most suitable for cultivating the Reincarnation Body [a divine ability that allows one to master the power of reincarnation], it was given by Eldrin Chen to be refined by the practitioner of the Reincarnation Body.

After everyone had divided the treasures, Nyssa Qu could not help but sigh with emotion, saying, "The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord truly understands the hearts of men. Each of the five Innate Heavenly God Objects [objects of divine origin, born from heaven and earth] he sent is something we cannot do without."

"Meticulously chosen, indeed a thoughtful gesture."

Eldrin Chen nodded in agreement, also sighing inwardly that the Immortal Clam Clan truly lived up to its reputation as a top-tier great clan that once possessed a Primordial One Imperial Lord [a supreme cultivator who has unified their primordial essence into a single, ultimate form].

While other cultivators at the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm] might also be able to produce this many treasures at once, none could possibly gather such a perfect set of treasures that matched everyone's needs so flawlessly.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen turned his gaze to the final scroll of Ancient Scripture.

This last scroll of Ancient Scripture was a gift from Snow Soul Immortal Lord, titled the 'Hundred Tribulations Butterfly Transformation Art' [a mystical art of transformation, likened to a butterfly enduring a hundred trials].

After merely skimming through the scripture, Eldrin Chen set it down and remarked with feeling, "It seems it won't be long before the Immortal Clam Clan gains another Late Stage Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [a cultivator in the advanced phase of the Great Encompassing Golden Immortal realm]."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, everyone was momentarily taken aback and immediately began to examine the Ancient Scripture.

After observing for a moment, Nyssa Qu could not help but smile and remark, "Even after enduring hundreds of tribulations of destruction, she has managed to maintain her Dao Heart [the fundamental, unwavering will of a cultivator] unchanged. She has even seized the Opportunity and Fortune [a rare chance for profound advancement] to comprehend the path of breaking free from her cocoon and transforming into a butterfly."

"Our clan's senior, Snow Soul, truly possesses a talent that can be described as Extraordinary."
