Chapter 1844 : Ascension to Innate Spiritual Treasure

Primordial Undying Radiance, Feixian Qin (Celestial Zither), Incomplete Ancient Mirror.

Gazing at the 3 treasures in his hands, Eldrin eventually murmured softly before delightfully storing all 3 sacred artifacts away.

This time, with such tremendous gains, Eldrin had no intention of lingering in the chaos any longer. He once again activated the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, traversing the endless chaotic void to return to the Abyssal Cavern.

Husband.

This time, it was Seraphina Qu who first noticed Eldrin's return.

After years apart, Seraphina Qu's cultivation had reached the realm of Ancient Immortals, making her the most rapidly progressing among Eldrin's 5 dao companions.

Eldrin was well aware that this was primarily due to the significant support the Immortal Shell Clan had provided to Seraphina Qu.

Even so, Eldrin was quite pleased. After carefully observing Seraphina Qu, he remarked, "I perceive your magical power has reached the ninth limit, and your primordial spirit has also attained the ninth-layer perfection."

"It appears you will reach the 5-Calamity Ancient Immortal realm before the cosmic tribulation arrives."

Upon hearing this, Seraphina Qu (Person Name) smiled faintly. Once both her primordial spirit and magic power had been cultivated to the Ninth Limit, refining her physical body, the Great Dao, and the Dao Fruit in reverse would undoubtedly cause her cultivation speed in these 3 great celestial trials to advance by leaps and bounds.

Now, there were still approximately 3,000,000 years until the Great Calamity. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, that should be sufficient for him to cultivate to the Fifth Tribulation Realm.

At this thought, Seraphina Qu couldn't help but turn to Eldrin and say, "Breaking through this time was only possible thanks to your Soul-Nourishing Wood and Heaven-Soul Fruit, my husband."

"You and I are 1 as husband and wife, why bother keeping such detailed accounts?"

Eldrin smiled faintly, then spoke again, "What about Lyra?"

Seraphina Qu collected her thoughts, her expression turning grave as she declared, "Elder Sister Lyra is currently in seclusion, striving to break through to the 10-Limits Soul Formation realm."

"Oh?"

Eldrin's eyes glimmered faintly as he immediately nodded and said, "Lyra possesses extraordinary natural talent. With the 5 Lights Divine Refinement cultivating her spirit at night, and now aided by the Soul-Nourishing Wood and Celestial Soul Fruit, breaking through to the Tenth-Limit Spirit Realm is nothing but a natural progression."

Seraphina Qu also nodded upon hearing this and remarked with a hint of envy, "Her innate talent is second only to yours, Eldrin. Even across the 3 1000 Immortal Domains, she would undoubtedly be considered peerless."

Eldrin smiled faintly, yet refrained from further comment.

He knew Lyra had obtained a portion of the Purple Immortal's legacy. Such an inheritance might seem insignificant at first, but as Lyra's cultivation gradually advanced and her comprehension deepened, the insights she gained would continue to multiply—enough to benefit her for a lifetime.

At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "I shall journey to the Abyssal Heaven and unlock a few more layers of the cosmos."

Eldrin murmured softly, taking a single step to depart from the Vast Azure Immortal Realm and arriving within the universe of the Returning Abyss.

After many years, the Primordial Universe had undergone tremendous changes. Its current diameter now exceeded 20,000,000,000 light-years—the pinnacle standard for a Seventh Tribulation Ancient Immortal.

Advancing even 1 step further was generally something only 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals could accomplish.

Yet Eldrin was not satisfied. He entered the Void Universe and began an act of world-creation.

Upon reaching the Ancient Immortal realm, 1 gains another opportunity to create a world. Having now cultivated to the level of an Ancient Immortal, Eldrin was ready to undertake this world-shattering feat.

At this moment, Eldrin reopened the cosmos, finding it far simpler than before. With a mere flick of his sleeve, he cleaved through the endless chaos, and in the span of a finger-snap, had already forged the First Heaven.

In the blink of an eye, he forged another 12 celestial realms, expanding the Abyssal Heavens to approximately 40-8 domains.

Even so, Eldrin remained unsatisfied. With a flick of his sleeve, he parted the vast chaos, leveraging the momentum of the cosmic ascension to continuously carve through the primordial void. Unbeknownst to him, he had already opened 20-4 new layers of heaven.

70-2 Heavens!

By the time Eldrin came to his senses, he realized the Abyssal Heaven had unknowingly expanded to 70-2 layers.

And now, the Void of Returning Abyss had expanded to a diameter exceeding 50,000,000,000 light-years, making it a colossal universe even by the standards of the surrounding Vast Azure Immortal Domain.

At this point, Eldrin ceased expanding further. It wasn't that he couldn't continue, but rather that he had shrouded the Returning Abyss Heaven with absorbed Primordial Chaos Qi to prevent prying eyes from detecting it.

This was not because Eldrin could no longer expand his realm. For the present Eldrin, splitting the chaotic qi that enveloped the 3 1000 immortal domains was no great challenge. The 70-2 layers of heaven were by no means his limit.

But continuing to expand further was meaningless. If 1 wished to ascend to the immortal realms in the future, relying solely on the chaotic qi of 3,000 immortal domains would certainly be insufficient.

By then, Eldrin must bring the Heaven of Returning Abyss into the Sea of Chaos, utilizing the high-quality chaotic waters to complete his ascension.

Under such circumstances, the Abyssal Chasm opening wider would be meaningless.

If Eldrin (Person Name) were to open hundreds of celestial layers, and later venture into the depths of the Chaos Sea without being able to withstand its pressure, the entire universe would burst like a bubble in an instant.

Only by rendering this cosmos eternal and indestructible, enabling it to fully withstand the pressures of the Chaotic Sea, could Eldrin accomplish the magnificent feat of transforming the cosmos into an immortal realm.

Under such circumstances, Eldrin believed his limit was sustaining 70-2 celestial layers.

To get back on track, after completing the cosmic ascension, Eldrin arrived within the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss. Gazing upon the increasingly vast and empty expanse of the Returning Abyss, a slight furrow formed between his brows.

At the same time, Chen Changxuan strode over, standing shoulder to shoulder with Eldrin (Person Name) as they gazed upon the vast cosmos. "A universe spanning 50 billion light-years is truly boundless," he remarked.

"Given the density of the surrounding primordial chaos energy, even with 70-2 Primordial Ancient Trees (Divine Trees) performing the conversion, it would take 1 billion years to saturate the cosmos with foundational essence and immortal spirit energy."

Eldrin also nodded, remaining silent for a moment before saying, "Indeed. Though the surroundings of the Qingcang Immortal Realm are safe, we can no longer afford to linger here."

"I intend to bring this Abyssal Heaven into the Chaos Sea."

Chen Changxuan fell into silence upon hearing this.

The universe of a 7 Calamities Ancient Immortal typically begins with a minimum span of 10 billion light-years.

Such a vast cosmos could not rely solely on the primordial qi of the 3,000 immortal domains to sustain its rapid expansion.

Thus, generally speaking, ancient immortals who have surpassed 7 heavenly tribulations would consider relocating their personal cosmos to the edge of the Chaotic Sea, directly drawing upon its waters to facilitate the growth of their universe.

Those 8 Tribulation Ancient Immortels must even guide their universes to the depths of the Chaos Sea beyond its fringes, for only then can they accomplish the magnificent feat of elevating a universe into a Celestial Realm.

However, Eldrin's universe was far too vast. A cosmos with a diameter of 50 billion light-years—even a 7 Tribulation Ancient Immortal could not withstand the pressure to keep it anchored within the Chaos Sea.

Can Eldrin's current cultivation level truly accomplish this?

At this thought, Chen Changxuan couldn't help but speak up: "Should we wait a little longer? Until the cosmic origin is more abundant before sending it over?"

"There is no need for this."

Eldrin shook his head and produced the Primordial Chaos Vial. "If 70-2 Primordial World Trees were to stabilize the cosmos, could they take root within the primordial chaos?"

"You mean?"

Chen Changxuan’s eyes trembled with shock as he couldn’t help but exclaim.

Eldrin nodded without another word, retrieving 20-4 strands of primordial Hongmeng purple energy.

It turned out that this time, Eldrin (Person Name) was preparing to advance the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel (Magic Treasure).

In the original plan, Eldrin intended to prioritize advancing the Yin-Yang Unity Vessel.

But now, with his cultivation advancing and having successively achieved the Eleventh-Cycle Indestructible Divine Soul and Indestructible Body, Eldrin had set his sights upon far greater pursuits.

He understood clearly in his heart that once he cultivated a body, Great Dao, and Dao Fruit of 12 limits, he would possess unparalleled strength—even without the Yin-Yang Union Dao Vessel.

By that time, even if the Yin-Yang Unity Vessel were to ascend to an Innate Spiritual Treasure, it would likely offer Eldrin little additional combat prowess.

On the contrary, once the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Bottle ascends to the rank of an Innate Spiritual Treasure, it can nurture a vast number of supreme-grade Primordial Ancient Trees. These trees would not only accelerate his cultivation but also stabilize the cosmos, while yielding countless innate marvels and rare treasures.

Most importantly, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel had already fused with 12 strands of innate Primordial Purple Qi.

With just 20-4 strands of Primordial Hongmeng Purple Qi left to refine and fuse into a single wisp of Primordial Hongmeng Spiritual Light, it would ascend to become a Primordial Spiritual Treasure.

According to Eldrin's (Person Name) estimation, a single strand of Primordial Chaos Spiritual Light was equivalent to what could transform into 2 strands of Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light. If used to advance the Heaven and Earth Primordial Vial (Magic Treasure), it would undoubtedly grant this treasure even more astonishing miraculous effects.

Coincidentally, Eldrin had cultivated for 8,000,000 years thus far. At a rate of approximately 1 strand of Primordial Primordial Purple Qi every 160,000 years, the accumulated Primordial Primordial Purple Qi over this time amounted to roughly 50 strands in total.

After deducting what had been consistently expended, 20-6 strands of Primordial Primordial Purple Qi remained. At this moment, even after withdrawing 20-4 strands of Primordial Primordial Purple Qi, Eldrin could still retain 2 strands.

To advance the Heaven and Earth Primordial Vessel, 1 still requires rare treasures of the qiankun attribute.

Although the supreme innate wonder of the Qiankun attribute was extraordinary, it meant little to Eldrin now. With numerous innate wonders already in his possession, he had naturally gathered all the required items.

At that very moment, Eldrin first refined the Heaven and Earth attributed innate treasure into the Primordial Vessel of Chaos, then fused 20-4 strands of primordial Hongmeng purple qi into the vessel.

Yet even so, the 30-6 strands of Primordial Primordial Purple Qi could not be unified into 1.

Fortunately, Eldrin's current cultivation level in the Ancient Immortal Realm had reached the threshold of condensing the Primordial Primordial Chaos Radiance.

He channeled the Hongmeng Sutra, and instead of refining the 30-6 strands of Primordial Hongmeng Purple Qi, he ultimately merged them into 1, transforming them into an unprecedented Primordial Hongmeng Spiritual Light.

In an instant, a dazzling Primordial Light erupted forth, intertwining and merging with the Cosmic Dao within the treasure vase, ultimately forming a grand Dao rune brimming with boundless violet essence.

"It is the Great Dao of Primordial Qian and Kun."

"This is not right. This great path is rather unique."

Eldrin murmured softly, a trace of astonishment flickering in his gaze.

In Eldrin's (Person Name) original estimation, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel should have been capable of giving birth to 2 Great Daos.

Yet now there remained but a single Great Path within the vase—a Great Path that seemed even more exalted, suffused with a Primordial Violet Light that radiated an incomparably noble aura.

Eldrin (Person Name) calculated with his fingers and sighed, "So even the Great Dao has its superior and inferior distinctions."

It turns out that the Great Dao is also divided into 3 tiers, categorized into 3 levels: Primordial Chaos, Primal Chaos, and Innate.

The so-called Innate Daos represent the most common manifestations of Dao Power, typically serving as branches of the Primordial Chaos Dao. These constitute the lowest tier among the 3 great Dao categories, and are the paths cultivated by the vast majority of Grand Luo Golden Immortals.

The Dao of Chaos was even more formidable, divided into 2 distinct types of Chaos Daos.

1 is the Great Dao born of primordial chaos, while the other is derived through later celestial calculations.

The former arises naturally, and thus requires no further explanation, while the latter is born from the metamorphosis of the primordial Great Dao.

Generally speaking, if a Primordial Emperor masters 1 Innate Dao and successfully breaks through to the realm of Dao Ancestor Immortal Sage, that Innate Dao will transform into a Chaos Dao.

The final Primordial Dao was the supreme ultimate Dao, the origin of all great paths. Eldrin (Person Name) had merely deduced the term itself, far from glimpsing its profound mysteries.

But to get back on track, the Way of Heaven and Earth within the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vessel was originally just a single innate great Dao.

However, after merging with the Primordial Violet Qi of Beginnings, it seemed to have undergone a qualitative transformation. Though it had not yet evolved into the Great Dao of Chaos, it had vaguely taken half a step forward, acquiring an indescribable and mystical quality.

"Let's see how it works first."

Eldrin murmured softly, immediately deducing the wondrous applications of the Qiankun Primordial Qi Vessel (Magic Treasure).

After calculating the results, Eldrin discovered that the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Vase was even more astonishing than he had imagined. Once upgraded, it could now produce 4 types of Innate Spiritual Water.

These 4 types of innate spiritual waters were respectively: Innate Spiritual Water (Spiritual Liquid), Supreme Innate Spiritual Water (Spiritual Liquid), Innate Qiankun Water (Spiritual Liquid), and Qiankun Great Dao Water (Spiritual Liquid).

There was little to say about this Innate Spiritual Water. It was the most basic grade, only effective on rare treasures below the 9th rank.

Supreme Primordial Spiritual Water can elevate Primordial Ancient Trees, but it has no effect on Supreme Primordial Ancient Trees.

The effects of the Innate Qiankun Water had also been greatly enhanced. Not only could this water assist a Great Perfection Celestial Immortal in breaking through to the Ancient Immortal realm, but it could also help an Innate Ancient Tree advance to a top-grade Innate Ancient Tree.

Of course, each promotion of the Primordial Ancient Tree requires consuming a certain amount of Primordial Qi; otherwise, it would be impossible to forcibly advance the Primordial Ancient Tree.

The Ultimate Primordial Water of Qiankun was a Grand Luo-grade innate divine water. It took an entire kalpa to accumulate a single portion of this water, which could be used to cultivate Patriarch-level divine abilities.

When refining pills or artifacts, adding a single drop of this Primordial Chaos Water could significantly enhance their quality.

"A medicinal catalyst capable of cultivating Patriarch-level divine arts?"

Eldrin murmured softly, his gaze shifting almost imperceptibly.

After a moment of contemplation, he still sealed the Water of Cosmic Dao at the bottom of the vial before beginning to advance the Primordial Tree of Innate.

This time, Eldrin swiftly advanced all of the original 30-some Primordial Ancient Trees to higher realms.

Moreover, within the newly opened 30-6 Heavens, he planted 30-6 Primordial Ancient Trees and elevated all of them to the rank of Supreme-Grade Primordial Ancient Trees.

It is worth mentioning that Eldrin also planted the Innate 7 Treasures Gourd Vine within the Earth Immortal Realm, and incidentally sowed 3 Soul-Nurturing Trees as well.

This Innate Soul-Nurturing Wood is essential for cultivating the 12-Limit Primordial Spirit. According to Eldrin's estimation, these 3 stalks alone are far from sufficient—more will need to be cultivated in the future.

After handling all of this, Eldrin discovered he had expended over 2,000 strands of Primordial Qi. The substantial wealth he had accumulated through years of wandering the Chaos had nearly diminished by half.

Fortunately, with these primordial ancient trees, the Returning Abyss Heaven could now firmly establish itself within the Chaos Sea.

With the Chaos Water from the Chaos Sea now in his possession, Eldrin's cultivation and magical power would undoubtedly advance by leaps and bounds, allowing him to catch up to his own realm at an astonishing pace.

Chapter 3 3 night watches had passed, yet 12 1000 words flowed forth. Let them come.
