Chapter 1889 : Ziyin Heaven

"Ah—"

Upon the vast, desolate expanse of the Primordial Domain, a world-shaking battle was erupting.

On 1 side of the great battle stood merely 5 or 6 figures, while the opposing force numbered several dozen. Yet the conflict unfolded in a completely lopsided manner.

Those several dozen powerful 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals, facing a mere 5 or 6 opponents, found themselves utterly defenseless. Instead of mounting resistance, they were forced into continuous retreat, with 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals falling 1 after another.

"Ah—"

Suddenly, a horned Demon God roared, its bellow shattering mountains and rivers across a 100 million li into dust.

Yet such a divine demon was sent flying by a single punch, with over half of its bones shattered, suffering unprecedented devastation.

This deity-demon resembled a flame demon god emerging from hell, possessing world-shattering divine power, yet it offered no resistance against the person before it—even fleeing seemed nearly impossible.

He could only watch the snow-white figure before him and let out a roar of unwilling rage, "Eldrin, you bully the weak with your strength—utterly dishonorable!"

Flaming Abyss Saint Spirit.

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured, his voice deceptively calm as he spoke, "To die by my hand is no injustice to you."

As the words faded, the sky-obscuring Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand completely suppressed the Flame Prison Eldrin, rendering all its struggles futile despite its countless attempts to break free.

In the span of a mere moment, the Flame Prison Holy Spirit was utterly annihilated in the heavens. Its shattered flesh plummeted to the earth, only to be swept away by a streak of radiant light, vanishing into the depths of the void.

"Whoosh—"

At the critical moment, Eldrin captured the Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) Firefly—the innate spiritual treasure of the Inferno Sanctum Spirit—with his 5-colored divine light. This was a rare fire-attribute celestial halberd, possessing immense power and exceptional material quality.

Eldrin took it into his hand and suppressed it, then casually stored away the Flame Prison Holy Spirit’s Dao Origin. Turning around, he surveyed the surroundings and noticed that the nearby battlefield was also nearing its end.

With the True Spiritual Root foundations of the Samsara Body and Lyra taking action, and with prodigies like Seraphina Qu who had cultivated several Indestructible Foundations, how could this group of 8 foreign Tribulation Ancient Immortals possibly withstand them?

By now, more than half of the foreign 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals present had fallen in the great battle, while the rest had scattered and fled.

No 1 gave chase, merely storing away the Dao Origin. Lyra was the first to step forward, gazing at Eldrin as she said, "In this battle, we have slain the Infernal Prison Sacred Spirit. The strength of our Southern Abyss 7 Celestial Domains is no longer significantly inferior to theirs."

Eldrin nodded thoughtfully and said, "Over the years, we have slain over a 100 foreign 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals, yet the 3-Soul Imperial Monarch has never appeared. It seems his injuries have yet to recover."

Seraphina Qu gave a slight nod and could not help but remark, "He has remained in seclusion all this time—I fear he is brewing some scheme."

"Whether it's a covert scheme or an open stratagem, in the end, strength speaks the loudest."

Eldrin (Person Name)淡淡开口，而后说道：“近来我愈发心血来潮，感觉紫仙君的遗泽快要出现了，我不信到时候他会不出来。”

"Purple Legacy?"

Eldrin nodded slightly. Since attaining the power of True Spirit, tens of thousands of years had flowed by like a river. Now, his Great Deduction of Yin-Yang Star Dao had ascended to the very realm of True Spirit itself.

At present, his mastery of the Heavenly Secrets had reached a level that even many Great Luo Golden Immortals could not rival.

Through the Great Deduction of Yin-Yang and Stars, Eldrin had calculated that the legacy of the Violet Immortal Lord would soon emerge into the world.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but say, "No need to dwell on it. Let us first restore our spiritual energy and calmly await the descent of the Purple Legacy Abyss."

For those present, the only path to further advancement lay in establishing a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation. Yet achieving a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation was harder than scaling the heavens—no ordinary opportunity would suffice.

It would be better to recuperate now and prepare for the contest over the Ziyize (Natural Treasure).

At this thought, everyone began secluded cultivation, simultaneously refining the 8 Calamities Dao Source to enhance their comprehension while restoring their own spiritual power.

Thus time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, 3 1000 years had passed.

Until this day, a dazzling violet radiance suddenly erupted from the depths of the vast Primordial Chaos Path.

It has appeared.

Eldrin opened his eyes from his secluded cultivation, gazing at the violet radiance shimmering in the boundless depths of chaos. An involuntary smile bloomed in his eyes.

He rose to his feet, storing the partially refined Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root) luminescence, then glanced at the companions around him and declared, "Everyone, let us depart."

As the words fell, the group immediately tore through the sky, flying toward the source of the violet light.

Meanwhile, on the vast Primordial Chaos Ancient Path, countless ancient immortals gazed at that violet light, their faces revealing a trace of ecstatic delight.

Deep within that chaotic expanse, the 3 Soul Emperor’s face was pale, his expression grave as he spoke, “A pity. This time, I’ve only been in seclusion for 120,000 years. My injuries have yet to fully heal.”

"Even with just over half of my combat power, I can already activate the 6 Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Art. That should be more than enough to suppress and eliminate that brat."

The Tri-Soul Emperor murmured to himself, lost in contemplation. After much deliberation, he finally steeled his resolve.

His expression grew solemn as he directly retrieved a clay figurine from his sleeve. After performing a series of intricate hand seals over it, he channeled a sinister and ruthless curse into the earthen form.

When all was completed, he sneered coldly, "My 7-7 Soul Annihilation Curse has been cast. In 40-9 days, it will take effect. By then, even if you possess a Primal Spirit and Primal Body, you will inevitably suffer severe damage."

"By that time, dealing with you will be as certain as sunrise."

The 3-Soul Emperor let out a sinister chuckle. After conducting repeated inspections for what felt like an eternity, he finally rose and strode into the depths of the primordial chaos.

After all, Eldrin possessed a True Spirit Body and True Spirit Primordial Soul, having established a foundation with 4 True Spiritual Roots. It was unlikely that the 7-7 Immortal-Slaying Curse could strike him down in a single blow.

To prevent Eldrin from escaping with severe injuries, he decided to intervene personally, aiming to deliver the final blow the moment Eldrin was critically wounded.

At the same time, Eldrin (Person Name), deep within the chaos far away, suddenly furrowed his brow.

Seeing this, Seraphina Qu (Person Name) could not help but ask in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Eldrin did not answer immediately. Instead, he immediately began calculating with his fingers, activating the Great Deduction of Yin-Yang and Stars Dao for a brief moment. Suddenly, he let out a cold laugh and said, "That old scoundrel is indeed preparing to curse me."

"Curse arts?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions shifted slightly. You Wu couldn't help but ask, "Are you confident you can handle it?"

"No big deal."

Eldrin (Person Name) spoke calmly, "Should I ever face a curse, the Great Calculus of Yin-Yang Stellar Dao will automatically activate the Great Calculus Yin-Yang Stellar Glazed Body (Spiritual Root) for protection."

"This technique can disregard nearly all curses below the Great Perfection realm, and even against True Spirit curses, it can reduce the threat by 90 percent."

"Moreover, both the Primordial Indestructible Body and the Primordial Chaos Supreme Dao possess immense resistance to foreign energies and alien Daos. It's highly likely that this individual's curse arts will be of no consequence to me."

"In contrast, this individual has cursed me using their essence blood. Should they fail, they will inevitably suffer a backlash."

As he spoke, Eldrin sneered coldly and continued, "However, it is discourteous to receive without reciprocation. Since he resorted to such underhanded tactics, I certainly won’t engage him in a fair duel either."

"Perhaps it's time he experienced my methods as well."

As the words faded, Eldrin (Person Name) produced a vial of black blood—the soul blood of the 3 Souls Sovereign, left behind when the sovereign was severely wounded by Eldrin (Person Name) in their past confrontation.

This level of soul blood serves as the finest medium for casting curses, often enabling the curse's power to be unleashed to its utmost extent.

At that moment, Eldrin extracted the soul blood and immediately activated the Great Yin-Yang Immortal-Slaying Curse. In an instant, overwhelmingly potent Pure Yang Heavenly Flames and Profound Abyssal True Waters surged into the soul blood, merging with it as they accumulated power, awaiting the moment of activation.

Thus, Eldrin continued his journey while amplifying the power of the Yin-Yang Soul Annihilation Curse, soon arriving at the source of the purple light.

It was only then that Eldrin saw it—at the very heart of the chaos, where the boundless Primordial Qi coiled and converged, a space shimmering with violet light slowly emerged.

Faintly, through that illusory space, everyone could glimpse a shattered and desolate ancient land steeped in deathly stillness.

"It is Zi Tian."

Youwu whispered in astonishment, "Legend has it that after the fall of the Violet Immortal Lord, the Violet Immortal Realm he established shattered into fragments. Only a small portion of its core remnants were hidden within the Chaos Abyss, now known as the Violet Heaven."

Eldrin (Person Name) furrowed his brow slightly but remained silent.

At this moment, he scanned his surroundings and discovered that over a 100 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals were already waiting in this vast space. In the distance, countless more 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals were converging toward them in an endless stream.

Amidst the crowd, Eldrin (Person Name) spotted Nitian Cangtian (Person Name), Tianxing (Person Name), Ziyao Jianji (Person Name), and the other prodigies from the Northern Abyss (Location Name).

Alas, the Violet Heaven was sealed off by that violet radiance, preventing anyone from setting foot within.

However, they all knew that the opening of the Violet Heaven was imminent, and the greatest opportunity of this celestial tribulation might soon emerge. Thus, none of the factions were in a hurry to waste their strength by making the first move.

Thus time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, several dozen days had passed. When the number of 8-Tribulation Ancient Immortals present exceeded 3 1000, the violet light sealing off the Violet Heaven Realm suddenly dissipated.

At the same time, a lofty voice echoed forth: "Within the Zi Heaven lies my legacy blessing. Obtaining it may forge the opportunity to become the Primordial Heavenly Emperor."

"Fated 1, It Can Be Yours!"

Boom—

In an instant, the entire assembly was thrown into an uproar.

In an instant, all the powerful experts from both sides—including the Thunderclap Saint Spirit, the Violet Radiance Sword Zenith, and the Heavenly Punishment—soared into the void in a flash.

Eldrin’s steps were swift as well; though he moved later, he arrived first, leading the group into the entrance. Just before he stepped inside, he noticed the 3 Souls Sovereign approaching through the air. With a warm and amiable gaze, the 3 Souls Sovereign smiled at him, almost as though they were old friends.

"Interesting."

Eldrin murmured, a trace of chill flickering in his gaze.

At that very moment, Eldrin led the group into the Violet Heaven, only to discover the vast expanse was filled with chaotic mists.

This immensely powerful chaotic mist obscured all vision and divine sense, leaving even Eldrin able to pierce through only a very short distance.

"Blocking both sight and divine sense, is the Purple Immortal Lord trying to conceal too many mysteries within?"

Eldrin murmured, a flicker of surprise gleaming in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, exchanged glances with the several people beside him, and immediately strode forward.

Before long, they arrived before a majestic immortal herb garden, where they encountered several 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals.

Among them were 2 individuals, actually the ‘Profound Yin’ and ‘Demonic Yang’ primordial fiends from the True Demon Primordial Realm. The moment Eldrin laid eyes on them, he decisively struck, summoning Chaos Divine Thunder to blast across the void.

Both of them possessed only a single True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation—how could they possibly withstand it?

The Demonic Sun's primordial spirit was instantly shattered into nothingness. Meanwhile, Profound Yin decisively performed a blood sacrifice of his physical form and true spirit, allowing his primordial spirit to flee through the chaotic mists. Shielded by the haze of chaos, even Eldrin (Person Name) missed the opportunity to strike him down.

"They sure run fast."

Eldrin chuckled softly, his gaze shifting away from pursuit to peer deep into the mystic herb garden.

The formation within this immortal herb garden was in complete disarray, allowing them to enter with minimal effort. Yet upon stepping inside, they found the garden enveloped in deathly silence. All the immortal herbs appeared to have been severed by some indescribable calamity qi.

Witnessing this scene, Seraphina Qu remarked with an expression of utmost gravity, "The great war of old was likely far more terrifying than we had ever imagined."

Eldrin remained silent, casually retrieving a withered immortal herb. He immediately noticed that all vitality within the plant had been severed, as if erased by an invisible force.

"Utterly erasing all traces of life force—it appears the 1 who struck back then had most likely grasped the power of the Great Dao, enabling them to obliterate the vitality within Zi Tian from its very source."

With that, Eldrin took another step forward and continued onward. After what felt like an eternity, he finally discovered a 1-acre plot of innate spiritual farmland at the heart of the immortal herb garden.

There lay an acre of medicinal fields, erupting with Primordial Light. Every inch of soil was saturated with Primordial Qi, and there was no lack of that indestructible Primordial Radiance.

This single acre of innate medicine field had integrated nearly a 1000 strands of innate indestructible spiritual light, rendering its value virtually incalculable.

Even more astonishingly, at the center of the spirit field, several strands of Primordial Qi (Cultivation Energy) seemed to flow and circle, nourishing an exceptionally dazzling spirit root.

Eldrin raised his gaze and saw a gnarled sapling standing silently in place. Its leaves brimmed with the dual energies of Yin and Yang, resembling the Primordial Spirit Fruit of Taiji.

Primordial Tribulation Tree (Magic Treasure)

Youwu whispered, a trace of horror flashing in her eyes as she said,

Eldrin's brow furrowed slightly, a ripple of comprehension shimmering in his gaze as he swiftly grasped the origins of this Innate Calamity Fate Treasure Tree.

The so-called Primordial Tribulation Tree is a primordial spiritual root of ultimate treasure, and also 1 of the rarest special spiritual roots born of chaos. It bears the power of calamity and fate, requiring the continuous absorption of both fortune and tribulation energies to grow.

Before him, the Innate Tribulation Fate Tree had borne a spirit fruit resembling the Taiji symbol—a fruit condensed from the power of calamity and destiny.

It manifested in 2 colors—black and white. The black represented the coalescence of calamity energy, while the white was formed by the convergence of fate. When calamity and fate fused into 1, it became an unparalleled treasure of chaos, rare beyond measure.

Legend has it that consuming this 'Primordial Tribulation Fate Treasure Fruit' enables 1 to cultivate the rare 'Tribulation Fate Dao Fruit,' 1 of the supreme True Spirit Dao Fruits.

Eldrin's Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit was cultivated through the accumulation of merit and destiny. While it could theoretically lead 1 to the realm of True Spirit, it had not yet reached that stage. Even if it were to attain the True Spirit realm, it would, at best, stand on par with the Karmic Tribulation Dao Fruit.
