Chapter 1846 : The Abyssal Ancient Realm

Even if someone were to learn of the tales from antiquity through ancient texts, they would likely only grasp the bare facts from those fragile pages—knowing that such events occurred, yet feeling little resonance with them.

"Alas."

"It seems I should also return to the Violet Realm before the Quantumn Cataclysm."

Eldrin murmured softly, ultimately saying nothing more.

He rose to his feet, retrieved the fully-formed Feixian Qin (Magic Treasure), and cupped his hands in farewell to the 2 elder uncles. With a final salute, he shattered the sky with a step and soared into the depths of chaos.

After so many years, stepping into the Chaos Sea once more, Eldrin's state of mind was entirely different.

In those days, when Eldrin first set foot into the Chaotic Sea, his state of mind was predominantly tense and solemn. He could only painstakingly conceal his aura with utmost caution.

But the Eldrin of today was no longer the same. Unless a Chaos Fiend or a powerhouse at the Grand Primordia realm made a move, he possessed ample ability to ensure his own safety.

At this moment, Eldrin advanced through the primordial chaos with unshakable composure. Wherever he passed, countless primordial beasts scattered in terror, fleeing like antelopes before a stalking tiger.

Yet Eldrin did not give chase. They were merely some low-level Chaos Ancient Beasts, creatures that held no significance to him now. Eliminating them would be a waste of time and energy.

Thus time flowed on, and before Eldrin knew it, he had traversed a path of 300,000 miles, arriving deep within the Chaotic Sea.

At this location, the number of Chaos Beast Kings had grown exceedingly vast, with supreme-grade Chaos Nests scattered everywhere. Even Eldrin frequently caught sight of numerous immortal domains stretching across the horizon.

In some of the terrifying primordial chaos domains, there even exist forbidden lands that have endured through the ages, each inhabited by Chaos Demons.

Eldrin steered clear of these celestial realms and forbidden zones of chaos, drifting through the endless chaotic nests. He ceaselessly hunted various Chaos Beast Kings, acquiring treasures of exceptionally rare and extraordinary quality.

He had journeyed for over 3 100 1000 years, vanquishing dozens of Chaos Beast Kings along the way. The innate treasures he obtained held value surpassing even 10,000 strands of Primordial Qi.

"In just a few 100 1000 years, such gains have actually been achieved."

Eldrin murmured softly, a flicker of astonishment gleaming in his eyes.

Tens of thousands of wisps of Primordial Qi represented an astronomical figure even for a Celestial Immortal. Many sixth-order Ancient Immortals could spend several kalpas traversing the primordial chaos, yet the rare treasures and artifacts they might obtain would scarcely amount to this.

Eldrin had obtained so many rare treasures in merely 300,000 years, revealing how boundless the opportunities within the primordial chaos truly were.

"Ancient Immortals who have survived more than 7 heavenly tribulations actually reap such bountiful rewards while venturing through the primordial chaos, no wonder those high-level Ancient Immortals remain wandering the chaotic realms for years on end without returning."

Eldrin murmured softly, then shook his head faintly once more.

Because he knew very well that his combat prowess should be at the level of a top-tier 7 Calamities Ancient Immortal. Combined with his immunity to chaos suppression, he could navigate the Chaos Sea as effortlessly as a fish in water.

Were an ordinary 7-tribulation ancient immortal to venture into the Chaos, they might indeed acquire a considerable number of rare treasures, but their harvest would likely pale in comparison to his.

Eldrin set aside his thoughts and took a quick inventory, then shook his head with a sigh. "There are quite a few treasures, but unfortunately, none of the Great Luo Odd Treasures are suitable for cultivating Lord-level divine abilities."

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret.

As the exclusive domain of Great Perfection Golden Immortals, mastering Patriarch-level divine abilities often requires exceptionally rare medicinal catalysts.

The so-called Great Luo medicinal catalyst generally refers to extraordinary treasures of the Great Luo realm. For instance, to cultivate Eldrin's Primordial Chaos Unity Qi True Aura to perfection, 1 must seek out all 5 types of Great Luo Source Qi.

The Great Luo Odd Treasures are akin to the Tai Yi Immortal Artifacts, ranking on par with the Primordial Spiritual Treasures.

Similar to the Supreme Unity Immortal Treasures, the Great Luo Marvels contain Great Luo Dao Patterns within, yet they lack the innate indestructible spiritual light, thus they are not considered Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Generally speaking, by refining a single Indestructible Divine Radiance into a Great Luo Treasure, 1 could catalyze its transformation into a 10th-rank Innate Spiritual Artifact.

Back when Eldrin (Person Name) explored the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest, the pool of Primordial Thunder Water he obtained belonged to the Great Luo treasure 'Violet Heaven Thunder Tribulation Water'. That single pool contained as many as 8 portions of Great Luo treasures.

Moreover, the Primordial Chaos Water of the Cosmos, which the Primordial Chaos Qi Bottle produces only once per kalpa, is also classified as a Tenth-Rank Great Luo Treasure.

Back then, there were still some Great Perfection rarities within the Primordial Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest. However, with time running short, Eldrin chose to seize the far more precious Feixian Qin and the incomplete Innate Spiritual Treasure instead.

This time, Eldrin ventured into the Chaos with his primary goal being to seek the Great Luo Marvels, intending to use them as catalysts for cultivating Sovereign-level divine arts.

To his regret, he had spent 3 100 1000 years exploring the Chaos, yet failed to find even a single medicinal catalyst.

At that moment, Eldrin only felt a slight regret, for such a Great Luo Oddity was truly far too rare.

The value of a single Great Luo treasure starts at no less than 10,000 strands of Primordial Qi, and even possessing vast wealth cannot guarantee 1 the opportunity to acquire it.

Such treasures could serve as medicinal catalysts for cultivating Patriarch-level divine abilities, making them perennially scarce and often fetching unprecedented prices.

Since time immemorial, there have always been supremely gifted Sixth Tribulation Ancient Immortals who attained Patriarch-level supreme divine abilities, yet found themselves stalled at this most critical hurdle—the Great Luo catalyst.

For the vast majority of 6 Calamity Ancient Immortals, even if they ventured through the primordial chaos for a dozen or so kalpas, without special serendipity, they might still never afford a single Great Luo Marvel by the end.

In truth, such rare treasures were scarcely attainable even for Seventh Tribulation Ancient Immortals, let alone those who had weathered only 6 heavenly trials.

At this thought, Eldrin fell into a brief, contemplative silence before finally speaking after a long while, "Should we venture deeper into the Chaos?"

Eldrin murmured in his heart, yet after a moment’s hesitation, he steeled his resolve and strode deeper into the chaos.

He possessed quite a few treasures in his possession, yet still fell slightly short of cultivating multiple Patriarch-level divine abilities.

Thousands of years passed in this journey. Eldrin pressed forward ruthlessly across tens of thousands of dao pathways before finally halting at the edge of a violent, churning chaos.

It was an incomparably violent storm of chaos, at its core lay a shattered ancient realm, enveloped on the periphery by endless Daos of slaughter. Within it, towering torrents of primal chaos churned and boiled, whipping up colossal tides that swept across all directions.

Even a 6-tribulation ancient immortal would likely meet a gruesome end with no place for burial should they dare to venture deep within.

To Eldrin's surprise, a group of towering figures stood right before the chaotic storm.

Eldrin scrutinized them carefully and found a total of 7 individuals ahead, each radiating an overwhelmingly majestic aura. Among them, 2 even felt vaguely familiar to him.

"It's them."

Eldrin murmured, a trace of solemnity flickering in his eyes.

It turned out that among these 7 individuals, 2 were the 6 Harmonies Daoist and the Demon Emperor Sunder Heaven.

After a decade apart, the 6 Harmonies Ancestor seemed to have fully recovered from his injuries, his aura now as profound and unfathomable as the deepest abyss.

The Demon Emperor Lietian stood clad in golden armor, his form towering like an abyss. Gripping the Sky-Rending Spear, he stood unwavering amidst the chaos, akin to an ancient deity rooted in primordial times.

"He has broken through."

Eldrin murmured under his breath, astonished to find that in what seemed like a fleeting moment, Demon Emperor Lietian had not only broken through the Heavenly Barrier of the Dao Heart but had also ascended to the realm of a Seventh-Tribulation Ancient Immortal.

This astonished Eldrin (Person Name). In such a short span, Demon Emperor Lietian had consecutively shattered 2 Heavenly Barriers—truly worthy of his reputation as the 1 most likely to attain Great Perfection in the Taihan Immortal Realm. No wonder he had gained the favor of Lord White Crane.

It was at this very moment that the 7 individuals also noticed Eldrin's arrival.

The 7 initially paid little heed to Eldrin, but after a brief glance, they sensed his aura was unfathomably profound and promptly cast aside their contempt.

1 of them let out a light chuckle and remarked, "Another fellow Daoist has arrived. It seems our chances of victory have just increased by a fraction."

"It's you."

The Demon Emperor Lietian was momentarily taken aback, clearly recognizing Eldrin (Person Name).

After a careful glance, he nodded and said, "Have you also come for the Ancient Realm of the Remnant Abyss?"

The Ancient Realm of Broken Abyss?

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) was momentarily taken aback, then immediately transmitted his voice: "Please enlighten me, fellow practitioner."

"It seems to be a chance encounter."

The Demon Emperor Lietian smiled faintly and explained, "The Can Yuan Ancient Realm is the remnant site of the Jian Yuan Ancient Realm, once forged by the Sword Abyss Immortal Lord."

As the Demon Emperor recounted the tale in a measured tone, Eldrin gradually came to understand the origins of this fragmented ancient realm before him.

It turned out that this fragmented ancient realm was a legacy left behind by the Sword Abyss Immortal Lord of old.

Sword Abyss Immortal Lord was 1 of the sword dao immortal lords of the 'Jian Family'—the sacred land of human sword cultivation. His cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and his combat prowess was considered exceptionally formidable even among Great Luo Golden Immortals.

In his time, the Sword Abyss Immortal Lord cultivated the ultimate path of slaughter through the sword, his nature ever forging ahead with unyielding resolve.

After attaining the path of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, he spent nearly his entire life in warfare. Within the brief span of 10 kalpas, he successively launched dozens of Great Luo-level conflicts and assaulted over a dozen Chaos Nests.

This prolonged war had allowed him to conquer 3 Chaos Nests and defeat multiple Chaos Fiends—more than 1 had even fallen by his hand. Yet this very success had sown the seeds of future calamity.

Until 3 kalpas ago, when Sword Abyss Immortal Lord attacked a Chaos Nest and suffered defeat, it finally drew upon him a fatal calamity.

In that great battle, the Chaos Demon Gods laid a cunning trap, ambushing not only 7 Great Perfection-level Chaos Demon Gods, but even 1 existence at the late-stage Great Perfection Golden Immortal realm.

Even the reinforcements from the various Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Jian family were intercepted by terrifying powerhouses within the chaos. This left Sword Abyss Immortal Lord to fight alone, ultimately leading to his fall amidst the chaos.

After the fall of Sword Abyss Immortal Lord, some Chaos Demonic Gods, still nursing an undying grudge, forcibly shattered the Sword Abyss Immortal Domain into fragments, scattering them across the boundless chaos.

Yet among these fragments, a few remained perfectly preserved, and the 1 before their eyes was once a core piece of the Sword Abyss Immortal Realm.

"Speaking of this," Demon Emperor Lietian began, "that broken immortal domain we discovered back then across the 3 1000 Immortal Domains was actually a large fragment of the Sword Abyss Immortal Domain."

"It was precisely because of that fragment that we spent over a million years pinpointing the traces of this fragmented immortal realm."

The Demon Emperor Lietian murmured softly, his gaze eventually settling upon Eldrin once more. "This fragmented immortal realm is far vaster and more perilous than the 1 we encountered all those years ago."

"If you intend to intervene, you must proceed with caution."

Eldrin cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks for your guidance, fellow practitioner."

Demon Emperor Lietian gave a faint smile and said calmly, "There's no need for formalities. To be honest, the breakthrough to my seventh heavenly tribulation as an Ancient Immortal was largely thanks to your set of Taiyi Golden Bamboo."

"In that case, it seems I owe you an immense debt of gratitude."

Hearing this, Eldrin finally understood. Back then, after the Demon Emperor Lietian obtained the Great Yin Gold Bamboo, he refined it into the Great Yin Gold Bamboo Sword Array. With this power, he joined forces with others to conquer a supreme primordial chaos nest, ultimately achieving the realm of a 7 Calamities Ancient Immortal.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but chuckle, "External aids are but external aids after all. Fellow Daoist, your achievements today surely rely on more than just a single sword array."

The Demon Emperor Lietian was about to speak when he abruptly raised his head, gazing deep into the primordial chaos.

From within the chaos, a man with sharp brows and starlit eyes tore through the void, his gaze serene as he strode forward.

Eldrin noticed that the moment they saw this person, the others immediately grew solemn, not daring to show the slightest neglect. They all cupped their hands in respectful salutation.

Seeing this, Demon Emperor Lietian immediately remarked in a hushed tone, “This ‘White Rainbow Sword Immortal’ is a top-tier 7 Calamity Ancient Immortal. It is said he has mastered 3 Patriarch-level divine abilities and once fought 3 7 Calamity Ancient Immortals single-handedly without defeat.”

"White Rainbow Sword Immortal?"

Eldrin murmured softly, about to speak, when a deafening roar erupted from the chaos. 2 more figures tore through the void, arriving with a sonic boom.

Between the 2 figures, 1 was clad in a black robe with a gloomy and profound gaze, while the other rode a golden chariot, clad in resplendent golden sun armor.

Yin Son of Heaven, Golden Sun Saint Child.

The Demon Emperor Lietian spoke again with an air of detached calm, then elaborated, "These 2 individuals possess strength that rivals even the White Rainbow Sword Immortal—they are not to be underestimated."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) remained utterly composed. This Yin Tianzi was a ghost immortal who had attained the Dao through the Netherworld, while the Golden Sun Clan was 1 of the 100 Immortal Races. The Golden Sun Saint was the foremost expert beneath the Great Perfection Golden Immortal realm within their clan.

Yet even so, Eldrin harbored not a trace of concern. With his current strength, he feared no opponent below the Eighth Tribulation.

Just then, White Rainbow Sword Immortal glanced at the group and declared, "With nearly a dozen or so hands gathered, let us strike together."

"Excellent—"

Upon hearing this, the immortals immediately took action in unison.

In an instant, dozens of sect-leader-level divine abilities soared into the sky, crashing against the chaotic storm.

The Chaos Storm was truly extraordinary in its might. Only after the group had joined forces to assail it for a considerable time did they finally tear a rift in the fragmented immortal realm.

As the entrance swung open, everyone stepped forward 1 after another, crossing into the Ancient Realm of the Remnant Abyss.

Chapter 1 No sooner had he stepped into the Ancient Realm of the Shattered Abyss than Eldrin sensed an overwhelming surge of energy rushing toward him. In that critical moment, he summoned the Celestial Li Swords, crossing them in a flash of intersecting brilliance. With a single decisive strike, he vanquished the shadowy figure into the void.

It was only then that Eldrin looked around and realized the creature he had just slain was a primordial beast of chaos.

Triple-Calamity Chaos Beast King.

Eldrin murmured, his gaze growing solemn. "It seems this Shattered Abyss Ancient Realm is even more perilous than we anticipated."

At this thought, Eldrin raised his head to observe the Ancient Realm of the Abyss, discovering that it was composed of 13 heavenly layers. At its core, an aura that made 1’s heart tremble lingered.

"At the very least, a Seventh-Tribulation Chaos Beast King."

Eldrin murmured, a glint of cold light flickering in his eyes. (End of Chapter)
