Chapter 1823 : Seven-Colored Immortal Pearl (Spiritual Object)
"Attack—"
At that very moment, Eldrin seized the opportunity without hesitation. Channeling his spiritual energy, he merged the Heavenly Li Swords into a single devastating strike aimed directly at the Chaos Devouring Heaven Roc.
At the same moment, Old Man Tianya and the Celestial Maiden also made their move. The Twin Swords of Horizon's End and the Innate Ice Soul Sword crisscrossed through the air, striking decisively at the Heaven-Devouring Kunpeng.
"Screech—"
In this critical moment, the Chaos Devouring Heaven Roc erupted into a frenzied rage, its wings stirring overwhelming tides of chaotic qi to form a defense. Yet, how could it possibly withstand the coordinated ambush of 3 assailants?
In the blink of an eye, the 5 innate ancient swords crisscrossed through the air, instantly striking him with devastating force and sending him flying.
"Die!"
Seizing the opportunity, Eldrin once again activated the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand. In an instant, the colossal hand that blotted out the sky seized him firmly.
With Eldrin's (Person Name) current cultivation base, the might he could unleash when activating a half-step Patriarch-level divine ability was already potent enough to pose a threat to ancient immortal mighty figures.
The Primordial Devouring Sky Roc, already greatly depleted and further grievously wounded by the trio’s ambush, stood no chance of evading the grasp of the Primordial Chaos Unitary Capture. In an instant, it was completely subdued, rendered utterly incapable of escape.
Seizing this opportunity, the 3 of them struck with their full power, and before long, they suppressed and slew it within the Chaos Nest.
After slaying the Chaos Devouring Heaven Roc, the Chaotic Glazed Fish soon met the same fate, and before long, the trio had eradicated every last 1 of them.
It is done.
Watching the Chaos-Devouring Heaven Roc and the Chaos Glazed Fish King fall, Patriarch Tianya breathed a sigh of relief and remarked, "This battle has gone far more smoothly than anticipated."
"We've reaped the rewards while others fought."
Eldrin smiled faintly, though in his heart he knew this victory had come primarily through seizing an extraordinary opportunity.
The Primordial Heaven-Devouring Roc had been locked in fierce combat with the Lustrous Glaze Carp shoals for years, its magical power already depleted by more than half. Trapped within its cramped nest and ambushed by them, the battle was swiftly brought to an end.
If they were in the Chaos Realm, with the Devouring Heaven Roc's speed, it would be nearly impossible for them to slay it.
At this thought, Eldrin smiled and said, "Let's take stock of our gains."
The other 2 also nodded and immediately began taking stock of their gains.
The 3 of them secured the battlefield and thoroughly ransacked the Chaos Nest, their faces inevitably lighting up with delight.
This time, their harvest was truly bountiful. They obtained a total of 50-7 strands of Primordial Qi, 1 100 30-1 Glazed Treasure Light Fish, along with 2 Chaos Beast Kings and 2 Primordial Ancient Treasures. Additionally, they acquired over 30 portions of Primordial Marvels.
Among the 2 innate ancient treasures, 1 was obtained from the Chaos Devouring Heaven Roc, named the Chaos Heaven-Devouring Slash. It manifested as a pair of wing-shaped ancient treasures possessing astonishing lethal power.
Another item was the 5-Colored Glazed Shield, which radiated a 5-colored glazed halo and served as an excellent ancient defensive treasure.
Eldrin took stock for a moment before speaking, "1 100 and 5 Glazed Luminous Fish, worth approximately 1 100 and 50 strands of Primordial Qi."
"These 2 Chaos Beast Kings—the Glazed Lumifin is valued at 3 100 strands of primordial qi, while the Chaos Devourer Roc is worth no less than 1 100 strands of primordial qi."
"Including the Primordial Ancient Treasures, Primordial Wonders, and Primordial Qi, our total gains this time should exceed 700 strands of Primordial Qi."
Upon hearing this, both the Celestial Maiden and the Ancestor of the Distant Horizon revealed expressions of ecstatic delight.
Although they had long anticipated that this harvest would be staggering, hearing the number spoken aloud still left them utterly exhilarated.
This was a full 7 100 wisps of Primordial Qi! Even divided among the 3 of them, each would possess over 2 100 strands.
And such abundant Primordial Qi was sufficient for them to cultivate all the way to the 4 Calamities, or even the 5 Calamities Ancient Immortal Realm.
Even if they were given several 100 million years within the 3 1000 Immortal Domains, they could never have gathered this much Primordial Qi.
Of course, they understood clearly in their hearts that their success this time was primarily due to overwhelmingly favorable fortune—having encountered the Glazed Luminous Fish school right at the edge of the Chaotic Shallows. Coupled with their genuinely remarkable strength, they had also managed to profit from others' conflicts.
Were it an ordinary 3 Calamities Ancient Immortal, they would likely be unable to even defeat the Glazed Luminescent Fish King, barely managing to slay a few Chaos Ancient Beasts. They might spend tens of millions of years accumulating primordial qi, yet still fall short of gathering 2 100 strands.
Yet regardless, their gains this time were truly astounding. The Eldrin of the Remote Horizon couldn't help but marvel, "In merely 1 100 1000 years, we've achieved such bountiful harvests."
"No wonder most of the ancient immortals beyond the Fourth Tribulation from the 3 1000 Immortal Domains have departed their realms to venture into these depths of chaos."
The Celestial Maiden also nodded and remarked with considerable emotion, "Back when I was in the Taihan Immortal Realm, I heard that high-ranking Ancient Immortals who have weathered 5 or 6 heavenly tribulations or more would never lack Primordial Qi. Now it seems those words were indeed far from empty."
Eldrin also nodded, a trace of emotion coloring his voice as he remarked, "Though the Chaos Sea holds boundless opportunities, it is also fraught with peril."
"Since time immemorial, countless ancient immortals and supreme experts have been buried here. We must proceed with caution as well."
The Ancient 1 of the Distant Skies gave a faint smile before speaking, "After we return this time, we shall trade these rare treasures for cultivation resources, preparing ourselves to break through to the 4 Tribulations Ancient Immortal realm."
"Hmm, very well."
Eldrin nodded with a faint smile. "Now that the Chaotic Tide approaches, let us first return to Nurturing Immortal Realm for now."
"So it shall be."
Hearing this, both of them nodded in agreement. Together with Eldrin, they tore through the skies, heading toward the Violet Sun Immortal Realm.
After departing from the Chaotic Shallows, they flew for several millennia before noticing the distant Chaotic Sea had grown turbulent without warning. Countless tidal surges battered the firmament, roaring toward the 3 1000 immortal domains.
"The Chaotic Tide has already begun."
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured softly and urged immediately, "Don't linger here. We must return at once."
As the words faded, they quickened their pace toward the Violet Sun Immortal Realm.
At this moment, the Chaotic Tide surged forth with far greater speed than a 3 Calamities Ancient Immortal could fly. In merely 1 100 years, it had swept across the fringes of 3,000 immortal domains, while wave after wave crashed relentlessly against them.
Amid such raging torrents, even ancient immortals who had survived 3 or 4 heavenly tribulations would find themselves at the mercy of the currents. A single misstep could see them dragged by hidden undercurrents into the chaotic depths.
Fortunately, Eldrin and the others had long since left the fringes of the 3 1000 Immortal Domains, maintaining a safe distance from the Chaos Sea.
Thus the 3 of them flew for several 100 more years before finally reaching the periphery of the Violet Sun Immortal Domain.
"Bzzz—"
Just as Eldrin arrived at the edge of the Violet Sun Immortal Realm, he suddenly spotted several streaks of light tearing through the sky in the distance. His brow furrowed slightly.
The few individuals closing in were precisely the ones who had launched the surprise attack on Patriarch Tianya.
Tianya Ancestor’s expression turned icy. The moment he recognized the newcomer’s origins, a murderous gleam flashed in his eyes as he uttered, "It’s them?"
"What should we do, shall we make a move?"
Eldrin (Person Name) fell into brief contemplation upon hearing this, yet shook his head almost instantly.
Although Eldrin no longer feared that 4 Calamities Ancient Immortal, the opposing side held the advantage of numbers after all. Moreover, the powers of Old Man Tianya and the Celestial Maiden had been severely depleted—a true confrontation might not yield them any advantage.
Since he couldn't defeat his opponent, Eldrin had no intention of revealing his true strength too soon.
At this thought, Eldrin said, "Let's not worry about them for now. We'll cross into the Violet Sun Immortal Realm first."
As the words faded, the 3 figures soared through the skies, heading straight toward the Violet Sun Immortal Domain.
"Where do you think you're fleeing?!"
In that instant, 4 ancient immortal elders struck simultaneously, seeking to intercept the trio.
The 4 Calamities Ancient Immortal rode his immortal spear through the void, thrusting forth with the intent to grievously wound Patriarch Tianya once more.
But this time, Patriarch Tianya was fully prepared. He swiftly channeled his power, merging the twin swords—Tianya (Magical Treasure) and Haijiao (Magical Treasure)—into a single devastating strike to clash with the immortal-slaying spear. Simultaneously, he summoned the Myriad Abyss Ancient Cauldron (Magical Treasure), combining its force to violently repel the God-Slaying Spear (Magical Treasure).
The Celestial Maiden channeled all her energy into activating the Snow Lotus of Extreme Frost for protection. Seizing this opportunity, Eldrin (Person Name) summoned the Sky-Severing Twin Swords to engage the other 3 opponents.
Thus, amidst their relentless entanglement, they ultimately broke through the encirclement and soared into the Violet Sun Immortal Realm.
"Damn it!"
Watching the 3 flee into the Violet Sun Immortal Domain, the 4-Tribulation Ancient Immortal was seized by overwhelming fury.
As a celestial domain of extraordinary status, the Violet Sun Immortal Realm perpetually hosts several 1000 ancient immortals and mighty figures dwelling within its borders. For this reason, duels between ancient immortals have always been strictly forbidden here.
Even if they were only at the Third or Fourth Heavenly Tribulation realm, let alone ancient immortals at the Seventh Heavenly Tribulation realm—daring to pursue the trio into that place would be nothing but a death sentence.
"How is this possible? How did that person's injuries recover so quickly?"
Beyond the Violet Sun Immortal Realm, the 4 figures came to a halt. 1 of them spoke in a tone of disbelief.
The 4 Calamities Ancient Immortal also furrowed his brow slightly. As the 1 who had gravely wounded Patriarch Tianya, he was all too aware of the power behind that strike he had unleashed.
Even if the opponent possessed a supreme-grade innate treasure pill specialized in healing injuries, it would be impossible to recover from such wounds in merely a few tens of thousands of years.
However, it appears that the injuries of Sky’s End Elder have now fully healed, a development that has taken them completely by surprise.
"It seems they still have some karmic fortune awaiting them."
The Ancient Spear Immortal murmured under his breath, a trace of icy gloom flickering across his face.
He cast a glance at the 3 of them and finally spoke, "The Chaotic Tide has erupted. For the next 100,000 years, they won't be able to set foot in the Chaotic Sea again. If they wish to make a move, they'll have to wait at least 100,000 years."
"Forget it. When the time comes, I shall invite my 2 friends, Zhenxian (Person Name) and Luotian (Person Name), to bring the Tower of Subduing Immortals (Magic Treasure) and the Net of Encompassing Heavens (Magic Treasure). Let's see how they manage to escape then."
The other 3 felt their hearts quake upon hearing this. Both Divine Lord Zhenxian and Patriarch Luotian were renowned Third Tribulation Ancient Immortals who had been famous for many years.
Most crucially, the Tower of Immortal Suppression and the Net of Heavenly Law wielded by these 2 were both extraordinary Primordial Chaos Treasures. Even Fourth or Fifth Tribulation Ancient Immortals, once trapped, would find it nearly impossible to break free in a short time.
At this thought, all 3 of them smiled and declared, "With the Immortal-Suppressing Godlord and the Daoist of Luo Heaven, we are certain to capture and eliminate these few individuals."
Meanwhile, the 3 of them soared into the Violet Sun Immortal Domain.
Tianya Ancestor glanced back and, seeing that the 3 had not pursued him, his expression darkened. "The grudge of 2 hunts," he said coldly, "will be settled with them in time."
The Celestial Maiden also nodded, then spoke, "Our immediate priority is to exchange our gains for rare treasures, then swiftly enhance our cultivation. Only then can we exact vengeance upon him."
"Then let us proceed to the Trading Assembly."
Eldrin spoke as he led the 2 into Violet Sun Immortal City. As the largest immortal city in the Violet Sun Immortal Domain, it possessed not only unparalleled prosperity but also housed countless merchant guilds and establishments.
The 3 of them visited several shops in succession before finally arriving at 1 named Immortal Spirit Store.
This celestial spirit shop was established by the Xianbei clan, offering not only various shell pearls and spirit pearls produced by their tribe, but also purchasing unique specialties from the primordial chaos to transport back to the 7-Colored Celestial Realm where the Xianbei reside.
The Lustrous Glaze Fish that Eldrin (Person Name) intended to sell was rumored to possess extraordinary efficacy for the Immortal Shell Clan, and thus he set the price higher than any other establishment in the celestial city.
The 3 of them entered the Shellfolk territory and discovered that their reception was handled by a peerless fairy maiden whose cultivation level was unfathomable.
This peerless celestial maiden was clad in vibrant robes, her eyes lighting up at the sight of Eldrin before she instantly reined in her gaze.
With a faint smile, she ushered the 3 into the VIP chamber, pouring each a cup of tea before inquiring, "I am Qu Caiyan, honored to receive fellow Daoists. Might I inquire what brings you here today?"
Eldrin (Person Name) maintained a serene expression, pausing briefly in contemplation before speaking, "We have come this time to sell some Glazed Luminous Spirit Fish."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Caiyan felt a flicker of delight and promptly inquired, "Might I ask how many of these Glazed Luminous Fish you have available for sale?"
Eldrin said nothing more, merely flicking his sleeve to reveal a school of Glazed Treasure Light Fish.
1 100 and 8?
Qu Caiyan was momentarily taken aback before exclaiming with delight, "When Radiant Glaze Fish gather in schools exceeding 1 100, they often produce a fish king. I wonder if any of you possess a Radiant Glaze Fish King?"
"There is, indeed."
Eldrin (Person Name) pondered briefly before speaking, "However, the Glazed Luminescent Fish holds extraordinary value. We intend to offer it for trade at the Barter Assembly."
Qu Caiyan’s heart swelled with excitement, and she could not help but speak out: “To be perfectly honest, the Glazed Treasure Light Fish holds the power to mend our innate foundations for our Immortal Clam Clan. I’m afraid no 1 can offer a higher price than we can.”
Eldrin did not answer immediately, instead turning his gaze toward Old Man Tianya and the Celestial Maiden.
The Celestial Maiden pondered briefly, then transmitted her voice to the 2: "From what I know, ever since the fall of the immortal Bei clan's Great Perfection Golden Immortal who followed Lord Zi Xian millions of years ago, only 1 Great Perfection Golden Immortal remains in the immortal Bei clan today."
"Rumor has it that the Seafolk have declined considerably in recent times, with their ancient immortal powerhouses likely numbering fewer than 30."
There were only 3 Ancient Immortals who had surpassed 5 tribulations, a mere 1 who had passed 6, and none at all who had reached 7 or beyond.
"This Glazed Treasure Light Fish, if given to the Immortal Shell Clan, could at the very least produce 1 5-Calamity Ancient Immortal, and there's a high probability it might even give rise to a 6-Calamity Ancient Immortal. It's indeed unlikely that anyone could offer a higher price than theirs."
Tianya Ancestor couldn't help but nod at this, then sent a voice transmission: "Shall we hear her price?"
"Very well."
Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod and inquired, "Might I ask what price you would be willing to offer, Senior?"
Qu Caiyan smiled faintly and said, "4 100 strands of Primordial Qi, or equivalent resources—what do you think?"
In that moment, Eldrin finally grasped the sheer extravagance of the Daluo Immortal Clan. To casually speak of 4 100 strands of Primordial Qi—it was clear the Immortal Scallop Clan truly lived up to its reputation as 1 of the wealthiest among the 100 immortal races.
At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but inquire, "Might I ask what suitable supplies you have available for exchange with us?"
Qu Caiyan glanced at the trio, pondered for a moment, then said, "Please wait a moment. This humble 1 will return shortly."
As the words fell, Qu Caiyan hurried away, returning shortly with an exceptionally dazzling 7-colored immortal pearl.
