Chapter 1943 : Primordial Chaos Kui Bull

"The Dominant Immortal Realm?"

Chen Ethan (Person Name) furrowed his brow slightly, a trace of solemnity coloring his expression.

Eldrin nodded and said, "Our Return to Void 7 Immortal Domains are among the powerful immortal domains, and also a thorn in their eyes."

"It seems war is not far from us."

Lyra (Person Name) murmured, involuntarily drawing a slow, deep breath.

Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod before speaking. "Pass down the order. Prepare for war."

Indeed, the outbreak of war unfolded precisely as Eldrin had anticipated.

Soon after, the army of Chaos Fiendgods split into 3 forces, each advancing to attack from a different direction.

The directions they attacked respectively were the territories of the Daluo Ancient Sect and the Ancient Clans—specifically, the Tianluo Ancient Sect and the Immortal Liu Clan of Eternal Life. The final direction led to the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss under Eldrin (Person Name).

Reviewing the intelligence in his hand, Chen Ethan (Person Name) couldn't help but sigh deeply, murmuring, "20-3 Chaos Fiends have come. It seems they haven't underestimated us."

Hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) twitched his brow slightly, yet refrained from speaking immediately.

This time, the Chaos Fiendgods divided their forces into 4 prongs, each led by a Great Perfection Golden Immortal of the eighth layer.

The force tasked with attacking the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss was led by 1 Great Perfected Golden Immortal of the eighth tier and 3 of the seventh tier, supported by 7 mid-stage Great Perfected Golden Immortals, with the remaining 12 at the early stage.

After roughly gauging the opponent's strength, Eldrin spoke up, "Given our disadvantage in this battle—they are stronger while we are weaker—our best course is to prioritize defense."

At this thought, Eldrin summoned the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix once more and remarked with a light chuckle, "This time, the 1 leading their group happens to be an old acquaintance of yours, Fellow Daoist."

Primal Chaos Kui Bull!

The moment she saw the intelligence in Eldrin's hand, the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix unleashed a surge of killing intent.

She clenched her fists, her expression turning icy. After a moment, she asked, "Though I bear a grudge against the Hun Tian Kui Niu (Mythical Beast), I must admit his strength is formidable. Are you certain you can handle him?"

Eldrin did not respond, instead retrieving another intelligence report and handing it to the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix.

The Violetpole Ancient Phoenix glanced at the intelligence report, a flicker of concealed astonishment passing through her eyes. The document revealed that beyond the Abyssal Immortal Domain, there lurked another Great Luo Golden Immortal of the eighth level, who had been watching the domain intently for a considerable length of time.

"The whereabouts of an Eighth-Level Great Luo Golden Immortal, along with the enemy's complete military deployment—such covert and precise intelligence, Fellow Daoist, you managed to obtain it all."

"It seems your methods are truly extraordinary, fellow Daoist."

The Violet-Polaris Ancient Phoenix sighed with emotion, then continued, "If there were only 1 Great Luo Golden Immortal of the eighth level, perhaps the 2 of us joining forces could still put up a fight. But if both opponents join hands, I fear we wouldn’t have the slightest chance of victory."

Eldrin nodded, studying the map for a long while before suddenly speaking. "I have an idea, and I'd like to ask for your assistance, fellow Daoist."

"Oh?"

The Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix was momentarily taken aback, sinking into pensive contemplation.

Seeing this, Eldrin said directly, "Fellow Daoist, you and the Chaos Heaven Kui Bull are mortal foes on the path of Dao. Once it discovers your trail, it will stop at nothing to hunt you down."

"Seizing this opportunity, we might be able to divide the strength of the Primordial Chaos Kui Beast."

"You mean..." the Violet Extreme Ancient Phoenix pondered briefly before speaking involuntarily, "You want me to lure away the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull?"

Eldrin nodded and said, "If you, fellow Daoist, can lure away the Hun Tian Kui Niu, or even draw off the 7 Chaos Demons under its command, then perhaps we can utilize our formation to crush the remaining Chaos Demons."

Upon hearing this, the Violet-Pole Ancient Phoenix's expression shifted repeatedly.

Drawing away the Primal Chaos Sky-Sundering Kui Bull and its legion of Chaos Fiends single-handedly would indeed drastically weaken the army’s strength, but doing so would inevitably entail facing unimaginably grave peril.

1 could say that with the slightest misstep, she could suffer severe injuries, or even face the peril of falling.

Seeing the hesitation in the Violet Extreme Ancient Phoenix’s eyes, Eldrin spoke up, “I can offer you 3 Space Divine Talismans, along with 3 portions of 9-Colored Immortal Nectar. This will surely guarantee your safety.”

Upon hearing this, the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix fell into deep contemplation. The Space Divine Talisman, capable of tearing through the chaotic void, was a supreme treasure for escaping peril.

With 3 portions of 9-Colors Immortal Elixir(Spiritual Liquid) capable of healing severe injuries 3 times, coupled with her lightning abilities and phoenix-like speed, she indeed possessed substantial confidence in ensuring her own safety.

At this thought, the Violet Ultimate Ancient Phoenix took a deep breath and declared, "Add 2 more Divine Runes and 3 portions of 9-Colors Immortal Elixir, and I will lure away the Primordial Chaos Kui Ox for you."

Eldrin (Person Name) chuckled upon hearing this and agreed without hesitation: "Done!"

As the words faded, Eldrin handed 5 Space Divine Talismans and 6 portions of 9-Colors Immortal Elixir to the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix.

The Violetpole Ancient Phoenix had just stored the treasures and was about to withdraw when Eldrin shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to rush. Let these Chaos Fiend Gods assault the grand formation first. Once they shatter the 7 Immortal Domains' formation, they'll inevitably be severely depleted."

"By that time, it would be far safer for you, Fellow Daoist, to lure away the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull, and we might have some chance of subduing the remaining Chaos Demons."

Upon hearing this, the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix was momentarily taken aback. She had initially assumed Eldrin’s true intention was to have her lure away the Chaos Fiend Army, including the Primordial Chaos Kui Ox.

But only at this moment did she realize that Eldrin had him lure away the Chaos Kui Bull not merely to alleviate pressure, but truly to create an opportunity for a decisive victory against the Chaos Godfiend.

At this thought, the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix nodded and said, "Rest assured, if the Primal Chaos Kui Bull does not pursue me, I will turn back and fight by your side."

"There's no need for that."

Eldrin smiled faintly, clasping his hands behind his back. "Even if 2 Great Perfection Eighth Layer experts were to join forces against me, I might not necessarily be defeated after pushing a battle to its absolute limits."

After settling the matters regarding the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix, the entire 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss began a full-scale mobilization.

Throughout the entire 7 Celestial Domains of the Returning Abyss, every immortal mountain range, blessed land, cavernous paradise, and celestial realm was engraved with Daoist formation patterns of varying grades.

Even those at the Ascendant Immortal Realm were integrated into the formation, serving as anchors to sustain each array node.

When designing the grand formation of the 7 Immortal Domains, Eldrin had built substantial redundancy into its framework. Even if the majority of these array patterns and nodes were obliterated during great battles, the formation could still retain most of its power.

Moreover, the grand formation was equipped with extensive backups, allowing immediate activation of replacements should the formation eye be damaged.

According to Eldrin's (Person Name) estimation, even if the Minor Heavenly Cycle 7 Stars Grand Array were breached, it would only require 1 1000 years to fully restore the formation.

Although the formation's power would diminish by 30 percent after restoration, it would still be sufficient to seal this chaotic void. Moreover, it could activate the 7 Luminaries Ascension to empower 7 Great Luo Golden Immortals, creating an opportunity for Eldrin (Person Name) to determine the outcome of the battle in a single decisive clash.

Once more, after refining the formation to perfection, the legions of the Chaos Fiends finally descended upon the outskirts of the Abyssal Return Immortal Domain.

This assault on the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss was unprecedented—not only did the alien legion boast a full 20-3 Chaos Fiend Gods, but they were also accompanied by tens of millions of primordial Chaos Beasts.

Eldrin did not dare to slacken in the slightest, immediately pushing the grand formations of the 7 Immortal Domains to their absolute limit.

Meanwhile, at the edge of chaos, amidst countless primordial chaos beasts, an ancient violet thunder-wreathed battleship rose and fell upon the turbulent currents. Upon its deck stood 20-some Chaos Fiendgods, their forms towering like eternal pillars.

1 of them, a man whose aura overwhelmed the heavens, stood clad in blue-gold battle armor, a trace of frost gleaming in his pupils: "So this is the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss? Hardly impressive."

"Brother Pi is not to be underestimated, for this is where 9 Great Luo Golden Immortals met their demise."

At that moment, another man clad in Great Barrens battle armor spoke up, a trace of gravity flashing in his eyes.

Under Half-Ancestor Liyan's command were over 2 100 Chaos Fiendgods, including 2 peerless fiendgods, 9 supreme divine lords, and 30-some Great Luo divine generals.

The speakers were none other than the Pixiu Divine General and Bixi Divine General under Arch-Immortal Li Yan’s command, both being Seventh-Level Great Perfection Golden Immortals.

At that moment, the Divine General Pixiu let out a cold sneer and declared, "Both Crimson Wolf and Profound Yin are nothing but incompetents. They recklessly charged into the formation despite their inadequacy—truly seeking their own doom."

"If we were within the formation, any 1 of us could have annihilated them completely. What is there to boast about in that?"

"Enough."

At that very moment, a towering man clad in Violet Heaven Thunder Armor spoke from the center of the battleship.

He rose calmly, his pupils boiling with endless, world-ending lightning. Like chaotic thunder-eyes, they swept across the 7 immortal domains of the Returning Abyss ahead. Only after a long while did he speak: "Pass the order. The army begins its assault."

Within 1 100 1000 years, you must sweep clean this celestial realm for this sovereign.

As the words faded, the man lowered his gaze.

Upon witnessing this, the 3 Divine Generals—Pixiu (Divine Beast), Bixi (Divine Beast), and Huangji (Divine General)—immediately bowed and declared in unison, "We shall obey the command."

The man clad in the Violet Heaven Thunder Armor was none other than the Chaos Kui Ox, 1 of the 9 Divine Lords under Semi-Ancestor Li Yan.

In the eyes of the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull, sending him to attack the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss was nothing short of using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

It must be known that this legion was a formidable chaos army, consisting of 1 Great Luo Golden Immortal at the eighth level, 3 at the seventh level, and 19 Chaos Demons.

The 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss possessed only 9 Great Perfection Golden Immortals at the initial stage. Even with the aid of defensive formations, their resistance would be as futile as a mantis trying to stop a chariot—utterly crushed to dust beneath the overwhelming force.

In all likelihood, it wouldn’t even come to the Chaos Kui Ox (Mythical Beast) taking action personally.

At this thought, the Primordial Chaos Kui Ox began to seize the opportunity to cultivate in seclusion. Having slain a Human Tribe Golden Immortal during the war, it was now the perfect time to digest the gains.

Yet, during his seclusion to digest the gains, the wars that would unfold over the next tens of thousands of years defied all his expectations.

Tens of millions of primordial chaos beasts, driven by the 3 divine generals—Pixiu, Baxia, and Desolate Silence—began relentlessly assaulting the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss. Yet, the Chaos Formation enveloping the domains stood unwavering, an imperishable fortress defying all onslaught.

Eldrin had shrunk the area spanning the 7 Immortal Domains from an initial diameter of several 100 1000 Dao-Paths to a mere 1,000 Dao-Paths. Though the scope of movement was drastically reduced, the pressure of defense was likewise significantly diminished.

Countless primordial chaos beasts charged forth in an endless onslaught, yet the vast majority met their end beneath the Zhoutian Sword Array.

The great war raged on for fully 1 100 1000 years. Even when the 3 divine generals—Pixiu, Baxia, and Huangji—personally led their armies in furious assaults, they still could not breach the grand formation of the celestial realm.

Until 1 100 1000 years had passed, the Primordial Heavenly Kui Ox emerged from its secluded cultivation, only to find the trio still unable to breach the Primordial Chaos Formation. It immediately revealed a countenance of thunderous fury.

Seeing the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull was about to rage, the Desolate Silence Demon God hastily interjected, "Your Majesty Primordial Chaos, the 7 immortal domains of our opponents possess origins more abundant than many mid-grade immortal domains."

"And at the heart of the grand formation, there appears to be a mid-grade Chaos Nest. With our current strength, breaching it would be truly difficult."

Upon hearing this, the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull’s pupils contracted slightly, and only then did it withdraw its fury.

With a celestial realm and a chaos nest as its foundation, it could withstand assaults from several opponents of the same realm. Even those 1 realm higher would find it nearly impossible to breach.

With such profound foundations in these 7 immortal domains, coupled with a mid-grade Chaos Nest, it was only to be expected that they could withstand the assault of 20-2 Chaos Fiends.

Of course, the most crucial point was that these 3 Divine Generals were all at the late-stage Great Roaming Golden Immortal realm—not existences he could easily suppress.

At this thought, the Primordial Chaos Kui Ox reined in its fury.

He rose to his feet and gazed toward the 7 Immortal Domains of the Returning Abyss. After a moment of silence, he declared, "If that is the case, let the Hun Tian War Vessel set sail at once."

The 3 Divine Generals felt a flicker of delight upon hearing this. The Primal Chaos War Galley beneath the Primal Chaos Kui Ox was truly a formidable weapon for breaching defenses.

This vast Heaven-Spanning Battleship, forged from countless primordial divine materials, was an innate Great Luo-class vessel capable of storing chaotic origin energy.

At the prow of this Celestial Battle Vessel stood a Thunder Cannon forged from innate divine thundersteel, its power surpassing even the Crimson Wolf Ancient Cannon by a notable margin.

"Boom—"

At this moment, as the Heaven-Spanning War Vessel finally set into motion, a majestic aura swept through the heavens.

The surging chaos sea water transformed into roaring tidal waves, sweeping toward the 3,000 immortal domains.

It is the Primordial Ark of the Great Beyond.

Witnessing this scene, everyone within the formation slightly changed expressions, their faces revealing incomparable solemnity.

Eldrin's brow furrowed slightly. Once such a Primordial Great Luo Ancient Vessel was unleashed at full power, it could shatter an entire immortal domain into several fragments, and might even inflict severe damage upon the grand protective formation of the 7 Great Immortal Domains.

"We must inflict heavy damage, preferably destroy this Great Luo ancient ship."

Eldrin spoke slowly, then took a deep breath and immediately stepped onto the turret of the Crimson Wolf Ancient Cannon.

The Crimson Wolf Ancient Cannon possessed unparalleled might, serving as Eldrin's sole means of threatening this Great Luo ancient vessel without personally venturing out to battle.

Boom—

Just as Eldrin arrived near the Crimson Wolf Ancient Cannon, the Chaotic Sky Battleship had already begun its assault. The colossal thunder cannon, brimming with overwhelming divine energy, struck the grand defensive formation with such force that the barrier trembled violently, even revealing numerous faint cracks.

Within the formation, countless immortals suffered a backlash, their bodies exploding in an instant. Some even had their Primordial Spirit Immortal Embryos utterly annihilated, scattered into nothingness.

"Damn it!"

At this, Eldrin's expression darkened slightly, yet he restrained himself from taking action.

Although the Crimson Wolf Ancient Cannon possessed immense power, its accuracy against the Daluo Ancient Ship was far from guaranteed.

The distance between them was still too great. If the enemy reacted in time, it could easily lead to a missed strike. Thus, Eldrin had no choice but to personally maneuver the ancient cannon, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Boom—

At that very moment, the Chaos Heaven Battleship unleashed its might once more. A thunderous artillery shell streaked across the sky, striking the Celestial Realm's grand formation with devastating force. The colossal barrier trembled violently under the impact, instantly reducing countless cultivators to ashes.

At that very moment, Eldrin keenly perceived that the moment the Chaos War Vessel fired its cannon, the formation patterns aboard would briefly stall.

In other words, once the cannon fires, this ancient vessel would find it difficult to change direction instantly.

Eldrin understood that this was due to imperfections in the Chaos Demon God's artifact forging techniques. If it were a Great Luo Ancient Ship crafted by humans, it likely wouldn't have such flaws.

However, no matter what, this was a good opportunity to make a move.
