Chapter 1885 : Triple Origin Return to Ruins Revolving Cycle True Spirit Mystic Method

The group departed from the Chaos Vial Nest and continued their journey deeper into the primordial chaos.

They journeyed onward along the Primordial Chaos Path, advancing in intermittent strides as they explored ancient ruins and treasures. In what seemed like the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years had slipped away.

Until over 50,000 years later, when the group conquered another ancient ruin, Eldrin finally came to a halt.

He gazed at the crowd before him and said with a smile, "It has been over 70,000 years since we set foot in the Chaotic Heavenly Abyss. Let us now enter seclusion here for a time, and advance only after we have fully digested the gains from this battle."

Everyone nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Along the way, they had explored dozens of chaotic ruins and over a 100 chaotic nests of varying sizes.

Although most of these ruins and lairs were incomplete and the remaining treasures were exceedingly scarce, when combined, they still amounted to a considerable harvest.

By their estimation, after a period of secluded cultivation to digest these gains, their strength would undoubtedly see further improvement.

The reason Eldrin chose to enter seclusion at this very moment was that the 2 innate divine abilities within him had gestated to a critical point, approaching the threshold of taking form.

At this moment, seeing that everyone had agreed, Eldrin immediately carved out a secluded cultivation chamber and began his closed-door training.

Upon arriving at the seclusion chamber, Eldrin immediately lowered his gaze and sank into his sea of consciousness, beginning to mobilize his primordial essence to nourish the 2 great True Spirit divine abilities.

These 2 innate divine abilities had already reached the brink of transformation. Through Eldrin’s relentless cultivation, they soon underwent an unprecedented qualitative change.

In just 1 1000 years, the Primordial Chaos Divine Thunder was the first to complete its metamorphosis, fully transforming into a complete True Spirit Divine Art.

Another 3 1000 years passed, and the 5-Colored Divine Light also reached complete perfection, becoming Eldrin's third True Spirit Divine Power.

It is done.

As the 2 True Spirit divine abilities took form, a faint smile surfaced on Eldrin's face.

He had now cultivated the 4 foundations of True Spiritual Roots: the Physical Body, the Great Dao, the Primordial Spirit, and the Divine Abilities. Among his Divine Abilities, he possessed 3 True Spirit-level arts: the Primordial Chaos Qi, the Primordial Chaos Divine Thunder, and the 5-Colored Divine Light. 1 could even say he had established 6 True Spiritual Roots.

Of course, the 3 great True Spirit Divine Abilities share significant overlap, requiring a profound foundation to unleash their full combat potential. Thus, the resultant enhancement in battle prowess remains limited—undoubtedly falling short of what the 6 True Spiritual Roots can provide.

After all, the path of primordial spirit enlightenment grows stronger with each illuminated true spirit acupoint. In the initial stages, it requires the support of the Great Dao, magical power, and Dao Fruit to unleash the full might of true spirit supernatural abilities.

If Eldrin (Person Name) could illuminate all 8 True Spirit Acupoints, then with their amplification, he might possess combat prowess unrivaled among those of the same realm through soul force alone.

If 1 could illuminate all 9 True Spirit Acupoints, they would likely become an invincible figure even among the Primordial Chaos Emperors. Once they attained the Dao and became a Chaos Celestial Emperor, they would rank among the pinnacle combatants within the ranks of Chaos Celestial Emperors.

However, before illuminating 7 or 8 True Spirit Acupoints, the path of proving the Dao through the Primordial Spirit ultimately lacks the potency of other True Spiritual Root foundations and falls short of the rapid combat power enhancement offered by the path of physical body sanctification.

Yet even so, according to Eldrin's estimation, his overall methods and strength had seen significant improvement. After all, his magic power, physical body, and comprehension of the Great Dao were all extraordinary, allowing him to fully unleash the power of his True Spirit divine abilities.

If the previous Eldrin, with his realm of only a 6 Calamity Ancient Immortal and insufficient cultivation, had relied on 3 True Spiritual Roots and a True Spirit Divine Art to barely reach the combat prowess of a weak 4 True Spiritual Roots level,

Now, with the aid of 3 great True Spirit Divine Abilities, his strength had reached the level of a powerful 4 True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) Foundation, or even the peak combat prowess of a 4 True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) Foundation.

"Alas, the Heavenly Barrier of Magic Power has yet to be broken."

"If I can break through, my power will surely advance by leaps and bounds."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, a shadow of solemnity clouding his features.

The might unleashed by a True Spirit Divine Ability hinges upon the foundational strength of 1's Great Dao, Primordial Spirit, Dao Fruit, physical body, spiritual power, and other such roots.

Moreover, among the foundations that empower these divine abilities, the magical power serving as the energy source is the most critical. As True Spirit divine abilities represent the embryonic form of Chaos-grade powers, they theoretically require at least the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal’s magical energy to barely activate them.

If Eldrin (Person Name) could cultivate True Spirit power, his cultivation would reach the level of a newly-advanced Great Luo Golden Immortal. By then, when he employed True Spirit supernatural powers, the unleashed might would undoubtedly experience a tremendous enhancement.

At this thought, Eldrin nodded slightly and said, "It is time to devise a method for breaking through to the next level of True Spirit power."

With this thought, Eldrin lowered his gaze once more, sorting through the Limit-Breaking Methods he had mastered over the years.

Over the years, Eldrin had acquired the 7-Colored Immortal Refining Scripture, the Primordial Dao Canon's Limit-Breaking Chapter, along with several dozen volumes of techniques obtained from the Ancient Ruins Continent and the Primordial Chaos—all methods to shatter the barriers of magical power.

Although most of these techniques were not particularly high-grade, only capable of cultivating 9 or 10 limits of magic power, the ingenious ideas within them greatly broadened Eldrin's horizons.

The method of breaking limits through the indestructible magic power within the Primordial Secret Scroll made Eldrin feel as though a veil had been lifted from his eyes, granting him an increasingly rare and profound insight.

Using this as his foundation, Eldrin immediately began to comprehend the method of breaking through the limits of his magical power.

To cultivate a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation, 1 must continually transcend their own limits, pressing forward until no further progress remains before achieving the ultimate breakthrough.

However, each foundation differs in nature. For instance, the physical body must endure 10 1000 calamities without erosion or decay; the primordial spirit must shatter and rebuild itself through nirvana-like rebirth; while the Great Dao must be cultivated to an unimaginable realm.

To achieve a breakthrough in this magical power, 1 must continuously refine it over time, attaining complete and seamless mastery, and then push it beyond the celestial realm's limits to undergo a transformation that rivals the Great Dao itself.

After understanding the root of the problem, Eldrin immediately conceived an approach to create a new cultivation method.

"My magical power is not yet sufficiently refined."

"Refining spiritual power has always been the most gradual process. If I were to rely solely on my own foundation to temper it, even a 100 kalpas wouldn't be enough for me to succeed."

"To achieve a true breakthrough, 1 must harness the power of the True Spirit Divine Ability to actively temper and refine it, guiding it through its metamorphosis."

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly. Once he had conceived the approach, he immediately began forging the technique.

He first established the Primordial Chaos Qi as his foundation, condensing a Chaotic Grinding Disc within his dantian. This forced all his spiritual power to circulate through the Chaotic Grinding Disc, gradually refining the quality of his energy.

Yet even so, relying solely on the power of True Spirit Divine Abilities, it remained exceedingly difficult to cultivate True Spirit Magic Power.

Eldrin then channeled the Chaos Divine Thunder, merging it with the Chaos Grindstone to temper his magical power in unison. The efficiency of this method was indeed vastly enhanced.

Yet, even so, Eldrin remained unsatisfied.

He decisively channeled the 5 Elements Divine Light, merging it into the great millstone to further accelerate the refinement of his spiritual power.

Thus, with the combined power of 3 True Spirit Divine Abilities, the effect of tempering spiritual power was enhanced by no less than a hundredfold. To the naked eye, the Indestructible Power—long thought to have reached its limit—was visibly growing purer and more formidable.

"No."

Yet even so, Eldrin shook his head.

With the combined power of the 3 True Spirit Divine Abilities, it would take approximately several tens of millions of years—according to Eldrin's (Person Name) estimation—to refine 1's magical power to the level of True Spirit Divine Abilities.

However, it required continuously expending immense energy to sustain the operation of the 3 great divine abilities. Consequently, Eldrin had no choice but to enter prolonged seclusion, thereby missing this era's tribulation opportunity.

"I need the 3 great True Spirit Divine Abilities to operate autonomously, even cycling perpetually to refine my spiritual power through endless repetition."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, immediately resuming his relentless attempts.

After his continuous attempts, 10 1000 years passed in the blink of an eye. When over 10 millennia had gone by, a '9-Orifice Chaos Cauldron' had been cultivated within Eldrin's dantian.

This 9-Aperture Chaos Crucible was forged from the misty aura of the Indestructible Chaos Body, its 9 apertures corresponding to the 9 innate acupoints, divided into 3 internal and 6 external orifices.

The 6 apertures formed from the external major innate acupoints continuously drew in and expelled spiritual energy, carrying out preliminary refinement and condensation.

Within, the power of the 3 great True Spirit Divine Abilities coalesced into a chaotic millstone brimming with thunder and immortal light. It rotated in an endless cycle, perpetually tempering the Indestructible Magic Power.

Even more astonishingly, within the 9-Orifices Chaos Furnace, countless divine chains forged from the Great Dao of True Spirits pierced through the alchemical cauldron, while the vast and boundless Great Dao of Primordial Chaos crushed all in its path.

Moreover, the True Spirit Primordial Soul had complete control over the magical power, gradually compressing it to induce its transformation.

"Not bad."

After a long while, a faint smile finally surfaced on Eldrin's face as he gazed upon the 9-Orifice Chaos Furnace.

This time, he forged the 3 Great True Spiritual Roots into a precious crucible, with the 3 True Spirit Divine Abilities serving as the millstones, creating an unprecedented supreme secret art.

The power of this secret art was truly astonishing. It made perfect use of the 6 True Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) foundations and could continuously refine spiritual energy in an endless cycle, day and night.

To Eldrin's surprise, the 9-Aperture Chaos Furnace was not merely an auxiliary secret art, but also a composite divine ability of astonishing power.

It integrated the power of 3 True Spiritual Roots and 3 True Spirit Divine Abilities, achieving a nearly perfect equilibrium. It could be said to be the ultimate embodiment of Eldrin's (Person Name) most potent strength.

Once it was drawn forth to confront an enemy, the power it unleashed would surely be enough to startle the heavens and shake the earth.

After some calculations, Eldrin vaguely understood that the Chaos Furnace's strike was terrifyingly powerful. Even cultivators with 5 True Spiritual Roots—or even 6—would risk fatal consequences if they dared to face it head-on.

Of course, as the embodiment of nearly all of Eldrin's power, the 9-Aperture Chaos Furnace would become highly unstable once manifested outside the body. Once deployed against an enemy, it possessed only a single strike's worth of potency.

After a single strike, regardless of whether it could defeat the powerful foe, it would completely disintegrate shortly thereafter. Following this, Eldrin would suffer severe depletion of his vital energy. Even with the assistance of the Life Rule, recovering would likely take no less than several million years....

Moreover, as his cultivation advanced, the power of the 9-Orifice Chaos Furnace (Magic Treasure) would increase, but so too would the time required for its recovery. Should he break through to the Great Perfection Realm (Cultivation Realm), it was feared that he could activate it at most once per kalpa (Time Cycle).

This 9-Aperture Chaos Furnace.

After comprehending the immense power of the 9-Orifice Chaos Furnace, Eldrin immediately began calculating with his fingers. A moment later, his eyes flickered with slight astonishment as he murmured, "It seems I've inadvertently touched upon a higher realm of power."

It turned out that this combined divine ability formed by consolidating 1’s entire foundational essence was also known as a Root Treasure Artifact—a power that only the true paramount beings within the Primordial Chaos could ever hope to grasp.

Generally speaking, 1 must at least possess the cultivation level of a Hunyuan Emperor to barely qualify for contact.

To cultivate a combined divine ability, 1 must possess immense control over their own foundation. At the very least, they must achieve 2 Indestructible Foundations, 1 of which must be the Indestructible Primordial Spirit, to barely grasp such a power.

Because refining 1’s entire foundation into a single vessel is highly unstable, and once instability occurs, it can instantly shatter the physical body.

Generally speaking, even those who have cultivated the Indestructible Primordial Spirit can only barely merge 2 Indestructible Foundations to forge a Magical Treasure. This merely scratches the surface of this realm.

In truth, the ultimate limit of the Indestructible Primordial Spirit lies in mastering merely 1 or 2 Indestructible Foundations.

Only by cultivating a True Spirit Divine Soul can 1 merge several Indestructible Foundations into 1, forging a powerful Root Treasure Artifact.

Such a foundational treasure possesses world-shaking power, often granting the Primordial Chaos Emperor the ability to challenge foes far beyond their cultivation realm.

Thus, even an existence at the early stage of Primordial Chaos Emperor, so long as they could fuse 4 or 5 Indestructible Foundations into a Root Treasure Artifact, would possess the capability to contend against mid-to-late stage Primordial Chaos Emperors at the cost of their lives.

Fusing 4 or 5 Indestructible Foundations together yields such formidable power,

However, someone like Eldrin (Person Name), who had integrated the foundations of the 3 major True Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) and merged the 3 true spiritual supernatural powers into 1, wielded a force so terrifying it defied comprehension.

For someone like him, who forcibly cultivated a Root Artifact yet wasn't completely obliterated by its backlash, it could only be described as a truly heaven-defying mastery over his own power.

"Though stumbled upon by chance, its attainment was still within the realm of reason."

A long while later, a faint smile unconsciously surfaced as Eldrin (Person Name) murmured softly.

This time, the forging of the Root Origin Treasure was an unexpected breakthrough, yet upon reflection, it had been an inevitable outcome all along.

Because in his cultivation realm, apart from the Chaos Indestructible Body, he had built the foundation of his True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) almost entirely without relying on external aids.

Forging a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation through 1's own power grants a level of mastery far beyond what can be achieved by relying on external aids.

At this thought, Eldrin sensed the 9-Orifice Chaos Furnace once more before speaking, "The Primordial Treasure has been forged. In at most 2 to 3 100 1000 years, I shall cultivate True Spirit Magical Power."

"This divine art and secret technique has surpassed the methods once created by the Primordial Dao Ancestor. It deserves a name of its own."

Eldrin murmured to himself, then smiled and said, "This divine ability is forged from 3 great True Spirit arts, fused with 3 foundational pillars, while also embodying the essence of cyclical recurrence. Let us name it the 'Triune Return to Void Cyclic Revolving True Spirit Mystic Art'."

After naming the secret technique "True Spirit Mystic Art," a faint smile surfaced on Eldrin's face....

He then turned his gaze to the 9-Orifices Chaos Furnace and contemplated for a moment before declaring, "This primordial treasure shall be named the 'Abyssal Return Furnace'."

After naming it, Eldrin inscribed the newly created secret art into the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss. Yet, after studying it for a moment, he shook his head again.

Although the 'Tri-Source Void-Cycling Soul Reversion Art' was immensely powerful, its effects even surpassing the secret techniques of the Primordial Dao Ancestor, it was a cultivation method Eldrin (Person Name) had tailor-made for himself.

Although the effects of this method were astonishing, its prerequisites were far too demanding. It required the cultivation of 3 True Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) and the mastery of 3 True Spirit Divine Abilities before 1 could even begin practicing it, leaving virtually no possibility for replication.

"Very well, this artifact is both the method to break through the limits of True Spirit power and the path to cultivate the Root Treasure."

"Keep it as a family heritage, and let Lyra and the others study it for reference."

Eldrin murmured, a wave of sentiment washing over him once more.

At higher realms, the methods left by predecessors grew increasingly scarce, and each technique was often uniquely crafted according to 1's own circumstances, possessing little universal applicability.

In truth, no matter how universally applicable a cultivation method may be, it could never compare to 1 tailored specifically for an individual.

Thus, upon reaching the Celestial Immortal and Great Perfection stages, the most suitable path is to create 1's own cultivation techniques tailored to individual circumstances.

A unique ancient scripture of the Dao Ancestor, if 1 fails to meet the prerequisite conditions for cultivation, would pale in comparison to a self-conceived Celestial Immortal Art. At best, it could only serve as a reference for contemplation and enlightenment.

For this very reason, even the direct disciples of the Great Luo Ancient Sect might not measure up to the top geniuses who emerged from unorthodox paths.

After all, while the direct disciples of the Great Luo Ancient Sect possessed remarkable natural talent and had access to greater resources and profound techniques for cultivation, these advantages might not truly align with their own path.

In contrast, those untamed geniuses who managed to cultivate to the Eighth Tribulation Ancient Immortal realm mostly forged their own Great Dao paths, possessing an even greater likelihood of achieving a 10-Limit foundation—or even an Indestructible 1.

Take the Cracking Heaven Demon Emperor for example. Though he claimed to be the true heir of the Primordial Chaos, it was only after he gradually ascended to the realm of Ancient Immortals and demonstrated his talent for a 10-limit physique that he gained the attention of Lord White Crane, soaring to prominence from that moment onward.

To return to our story, after Eldrin (Person Name) finished transcribing the ancient scripture, he carefully stored it away.

Then he emerged from the seclusion chamber, only to find Lyra and the others had been waiting here for quite some time.

This time in seclusion, everyone had gained some improvement. Among them, Lyra (Person Name) progressed even further, cultivating all her foundational aspects—except the Spirit Treasure Heavenly Pass—to the indestructible realm.

Youwu was slightly outmatched by half a measure. Though she still possessed only 2 Immortal Foundations, she had already perfected all her other foundations to the Tenth Limit realm.

The progress of the Reincarnation Body was also significant. Over these years, its cultivation base had stabilized at the Seventh Heavenly Tribulation Ancient Immortal realm. With the support of numerous resources, the True Spirit Body had further developed, elevating its combat prowess to the level of an ordinary single True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) Foundation Eighth Heavenly Tribulation Ancient Immortal.

Seraphina Qu had made the most progress. Having refined the 9-Colored Immortal Fruit to replenish her origin and consumed the True Spirit Water, she had now cultivated 5 indestructible foundations. Only her Dao Fruit and spiritual treasures remained, the 2 great heavenly barriers yet to reach the Eleventh Limit.

The 9-Colored Immortal Deer, however, had made no progress. She had already cultivated 6 indestructible foundations, yet had not advanced a single step for hundreds of kalpas. Unless she encountered a heaven-defying opportunity, it was highly unlikely she would achieve any further breakthroughs.

However, Eldrin had long since devised a plan for this—he intended to bestow upon the 9-Colored Immortal Deer a wisp of Primordial Undying Spiritual Light in the future.

For a Primal Chaos Holy Spirit like the 9-Color Immortal Deer, a wisp of Primordial Undying Spirit Light could often elevate their foundation and potential from nothingness. Should they obtain even a single strand, it would inevitably bring about a heaven-defying transformation.

"You've finally emerged from seclusion."

As Eldrin emerged from seclusion, Lyra, who had been guarding outside the cultivation chamber, couldn't help but ask: "How did it go?"

"The transformation is complete, and the path to the Celestial Barrier of Magic Power is now within reach."

"So it is true."

Hearing this, Lyra (Person Name) felt a surge of joy in her heart. She tightened her grip on his hand, her face glowing with genuine delight.

Seeing this, You Wu couldn't help but remark, "It seems this time, we'll have more confidence in facing those from the Northern Abyss's alien realms."

"Northern Abyss Expanse." Lulu was momentarily taken aback before asking, "Are we going to fight again?"

Eldrin smiled faintly and instinctively patted the boy's head. "I'll take you to defeat the villains."

"Villains?"

Eldrin nodded solemnly and declared, "Villains are those who would seize your treasures and never return them."

"Hmm?"

Lulu's eyes widened, and she gritted her teeth as she declared, "Beat those scoundrels to death."

As she spoke, she looked at Eldrin with pleading eyes and asked, "You will return my treasure to me, won’t you?"

Eldrin couldn't help but let out an awkward chuckle upon hearing this.

Although Lulu was naive, she was no fool. Over the years of interaction, she had come to understand many things. She suspected Eldrin was swindling her treasures, yet she couldn't defeat him in combat. All she could do was gaze at him with wounded eyes each time, her expression brimming with helpless grievance.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but chuckle and gently tap her forehead. "I will—I promise I'll return them to you."

"Ah."

Lulu covered her head and yelped, darting behind Seraphina Qu (Person Name) before glaring at him with wide, bright eyes: "Bad guys who won’t return treasures deserve to be beaten up, bleh bleh bleh…"

Having an extra Lulu along felt more like a pleasant diversion on their otherwise monotonous journey.

The girl was innocent and adorable, often teased by the other women during their travels, yet always shielded by Seraphina Qu (Person Name). Unconsciously, her presence had drawn everyone closer together.

In the years that followed, the group continued their journey along the Eldrin Continent. Tens of thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye, and before they knew it, they had traversed over half of the ancient land.

On this day, Eldrin halted before a vast Chaotic Ruins, his brow subtly furrowing.

There, within the ruins, 2 figures stood poised—1 tall and imposing, gripping a black-gold iron staff planted firmly on the ground.

Another figure was clad in an opulent purple robe, their flowing black hair swirling with overwhelming sword energy. With but a casual glance, a peerless sharpness shot forth as if to cleave the very heavens.

Clang—

"What formidable sword intent."

Eldrin murmured, and with a flick of his sleeve, he extended a single finger. In the blink of an eye, he shattered the sword qi.

But as he withdrew his hand, he noticed a faint bloodstain lingering on his fingertips, only for it to vanish into nothingness in the very next instant.

"Since I forged my True Spirit Body, you are the first to have wounded me."

Eldrin gazed at the person before him, a trace of approval flickering in his eyes.

Since attaining the Chaotic Indestructible Body, he had successively engaged in fierce battles against 4 true spirit prodigies—Lingxiao (Person Name), Taihuan (Person Name), the 9 Luminaries Divine Lord of Wuji (Person Name), and Ni Cangtian (Person Name). Yet even the mightiest among them, Ni Cangtian, had failed to leave so much as a scratch upon him.

Yet the man before them had wounded Eldrin (Person Name) with a mere strand of sword intent. Even if Eldrin (Person Name) had intercepted it barehanded with his fingertips, this alone proved his strength was far beyond what the others could ever hope to match.

At this thought, Eldrin nodded and said, “As expected of a Chaos Spiritual Treasure’s nascent form taking shape—truly extraordinary.”

It turned out that the 2 figures before him were none other than the ‘Violet Firmament Sword Zenith’ from the Primordial Realm of the Great Pot, and the ‘Heavenly Punishment’—the Chaos Imperial Zenith Ant from the Realm of Chaotic Heaven’s Extremity.

These 2 individuals, 1 was the reincarnated cultivator of a Chaos Spiritual Treasure embryo, while the other was the young son of the Ant Emperor, bearing the bloodline of the Chaos Imperial Extreme Ant.

"Hmph."

The youth in violet robes let out a cold snort and spoke with detached calm, "We have waited for you 3 1000 years. Had you delayed further, we would have proceeded to confront the myriad foes of the Northern Abyss."

"My apologies for the wait."

Eldrin nodded and said calmly,

"The matter of the Northern Abyss can wait for now."

Just then, a voice rang out. Tianxing approached, his gaze fixed on Eldrin as he asked, "I heard you defeated Nitian head-on after he sacrificed his Dao Fruit?"

"Indeed." Eldrin nodded.

"Excellent—"

Tian Xing let out an admiring sigh, a flicker of battle intent gleaming in his eyes: “Face me in battle!” (End of Chapter)
