Chapter 1951 : Pure Yang Immortal Furnace
The 3 foundational pillars were fundamentally different from Dao patterns. This was a collision of different supreme Daos, originating from the most primordial foundations within Eldrin’s being. Attempting to transfer them by altering Dao patterns was simply impossible.
If it were that simple to achieve, then throughout the ages, the number of Great Luo Golden Immortals who had simultaneously cultivated 3 paths would certainly not be few.
After all, with the immense power of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, altering Dao Patterns was not something beyond their capabilities.
At this thought, Eldrin’s expression grew increasingly grave, yet no particularly convenient solution came to mind for the moment.
After a long while had passed, Eldrin gazed at the primordial treasure within him—the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss—and fell into a contemplative silence.
"If I cannot redirect the conflict beyond my body, then could I perhaps shift it within?"
Eldrin murmured inwardly, his eyes suddenly blazing with a brilliant light.
He continued to contemplate the Abyssal Crucible forged from his lifelong foundation, then examined the various pillars of his own cultivation, ultimately resolving himself to a decision.
Without hesitation, he immediately took out several portions of Enlightenment Tea to brew. After drinking it, he immersed himself in continuous enlightenment and contemplation.
The potent medicinal efficacy of the Enlightenment Tea immediately set his thoughts adrift, plunging him into a state of profound enlightenment.
"I see, now I understand."
Eldrin suddenly spoke up, decisively readjusting the Dao patterns within his body as he attempted to transfer all conflicts between his foundational energies into this Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss.
Yet as the Dao patterns continuously adjusted, Eldrin discovered that the Abyssal Return Furnace still struggled to maintain complete equilibrium.
Left with no alternative, Eldrin directly channeled the Time-Space and Samsara Daos of his Reincarnation Body, engraving them into the Abyssal Return Furnace in an attempt to maintain equilibrium.
Yet he discovered that the power of his 3 foundational pillars was far too domineering. Once repulsive forces took shape, even the great Daos of Samsara and Time-Space struggled to achieve complete equilibrium with them.
"Wrong."
Eldrin murmured under his breath. Just as the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss was on the verge of collapse, a sudden inspiration struck him—he thought of the Abyssal Pearl. Without hesitation, he imprinted a portion of its Dao patterns and fused them into the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss.
"Bzzz—"
In an instant, the Abyssal Crucible trembled faintly, and all conflicts seemed to dissolve into nothingness.
Eldrin gazed at the Abyssal Return Furnace. Upon this primordial treasure, an immensely profound Dao pattern was imprinted, devouring all power into its depths.
Path of the Returning Abyss.
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured softly, letting out a faint sigh as a glimmer of enlightenment dawned upon his expression.
The Path of the Returning Abyss truly stands as 1 of the supreme ultimate Great Daos, representing the destined end of all things within the primordial chaos.
As the saying goes, the Returning Abyss is a bottomless valley, where all waters from the 8 directions and 9 fields, even the celestial river itself, pour into it—yet it neither increases nor diminishes.
Eldrin had merely imprinted an insignificant strand of Dao Pattern, not even the rudimentary form of the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss. Yet, as this supreme Dao Pattern absorbed energy, the repulsive forces among the 3 foundational pillars vanished without a trace, as though all power were utterly trivial.
Within the Divine Runes of the Path of Physical Sanctification, there exist 4 ultimate runes: Annihilation, Spacetime, Oblivion, and Chaos.
"And the Abyssal Divine Rune stands as the foremost defensive True Spirit Rune, far surpassing even the combined might of Mana Immunity and the Indestructible Golden Body. It appears now that this legend is indeed no mere rumor."
Eldrin murmured softly, a faint smile gracing his lips.
Within his Return-to-Void Furnace, this Dao Pattern was not a True Spirit Divine Rune, yet it could already absorb all incompatibility between the 3 foundational pillars. This alone was enough to be considered defying the heavens.
At this thought, Eldrin could not help but reveal a look of delight.
This was not only because he had resolved the repulsion between the 3 foundational elements, but most crucially, he had already discovered the method to cultivate the Divine Sigil of the Returning Abyss.
With this Dao pattern as a foundation and the assistance of the Abyssal Pearl, Eldrin was confident he could cultivate the 'Nirvana'—1 of the 4 ultimate divine patterns.
Moreover, Eldrin could also cultivate the 'Chaos'—1 of the 4 supreme divine patterns—through the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos.
According to Eldrin (Person Name)'s estimation, once the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos reached the realm of the Primordial Chaos Emperor, and the power of the existing 5 Divine Marks of True Spirits was merged, it would be possible to cultivate the 'Divine Mark of Primordial Chaos'.
By then, Eldrin, having simultaneously mastered the 2 supreme divine patterns, would possess physical strength unparalleled throughout the vast chaos. Not only could he rely on it to achieve sainthood through bodily cultivation and prove his path as the Chaos Celestial Emperor, but he would also awaken unimaginable, earth-shattering potential.
For those who tread the path of physical sanctification, each of these 4 ultimate divine patterns exists as mythical legend, theoretically conceivable yet never witnessed. Mastering even 1 would grant unimaginable, earth-shaking power.
"1 step at a time. I shall contemplate these 4 ultimate divine runes another day."
Eldrin murmured softly, a faint ripple of emotion shimmering in his gaze.
He took a deep breath, then set aside his thoughts. Lowering his gaze, he focused inward to sense the power flowing within him, before extending his divine consciousness into the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss.
It was only then that Eldrin discovered the profound mystery of the Abyssal Return Furnace.
Deep within the Abyssal Furnace, there existed an almost imperceptible tiny pearl. It bore the shape of the Abyssal Pearl, yet possessed a power strikingly similar to it.
The small pearl spiraled incessantly, drawing out the spiritual energy and life force from within Eldrin, while simultaneously tempering his foundation and cultivation.
"Could this be the repulsive force coalescing between the 3 foundational pillars?"
Eldrin murmured, a faint ripple shimmering in the depths of his gaze.
After further contemplation, a trace of delight welled up within Eldrin.
To his delight, the repulsive forces of these 3 foundations coalesced within the Abyssal Return Furnace, unexpectedly refining his vital energy and magic power while consolidating his cultivation and foundations.
With the aid of this power, Eldrin's speed in refining various rare treasures increased dramatically. If previously he could only refine 6 Great Luo Immortal Pills in 1 kalpic cycle, now he was capable of refining 12 within the same period.
At this rate, Eldrin's cultivation progress accelerated once more with remarkable momentum.
At this thought, Eldrin once again took out the Great Luo Immortal Elixir and the Indestructible Golden Fruit and consumed them. Only after consecutively ingesting 6 immortal elixirs and divine fruits did he finally reach the absolute limit of what his body could endure.
It was only then that Eldrin realized the origin of his Chaos Indestructible Body had already accumulated over 50 percent, bringing him 1 step closer to breaking through to the fifth layer of the Great Perfection Body.
"It seems I only need to wait 1 kalpa before my Great Luo Physique breaks through to the fifth layer."
Eldrin (Person Name) murmured softly, a faint sigh of relief escaping his lips.
His Chaos Indestructible Body was far too powerful, consuming resources that vastly exceeded those required by ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortals of his clan. Even Lyra (Person Name) and others who had also cultivated True Spirit Bodies required significantly fewer resources than he did.
He had thought his physical cultivation would eventually be surpassed by his Dao companion and clan members, but it seemed he would ultimately be the 1 to advance first.
At this thought, Eldrin smiled faintly, then slowly exhaled before stepping out of the secluded cultivation chamber.
In the years that followed, Eldrin resumed his secluded cultivation, and his days returned to a state of relative tranquility.
Thus time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, 20 million years had passed. It was not until a certain day, 20 million years later, that the Violet Zenith Ancient Phoenix arrived at the Return to Void Immortal Domain for a visit.
Beneath the Peach Blossom Tree within the Return Abyss, Eldrin personally brewed a pot of tea for the Violet Zenith Ancient Phoenix before inquiring, "Fellow Daoist, how fares your recovery from the injuries?"
"After all these years of healing, my injuries have barely recovered somewhat."
At this point, the Violet Zenith Phoenix hesitated slightly before speaking after a moment's pause, "The reason for my visit is to seek your assistance."
"Oh?"
The Purple Pole Ancient Phoenix Eldrin (Person Name) paused briefly, then poured a cup of tea for the Purple Pole Ancient Phoenix, gesturing for her to continue.
The Violet-Pole Ancient Phoenix pondered briefly before speaking, "My sisters and I have cultivated in the Chaotic Heavenly Domain for many years, yet we have never possessed a Great Perfection Dao-Field of our own."
"So I wish to return to my old homeland to see if I can relocate my dao sanctuary here."
Eldrin nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this. The Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest, once the sacred dao arena of the Violet Ultimate Ancient Phoenix, remained a legendary chaos domain renowned throughout the primordial expanse.
Since the Purple Pole Ancient Phoenix went into exile, it has changed hands several times over these kalpas.
Initially, this Chaos Nest was occupied by a newly ascended Chaos Demon God. Later, it was seized by a Human Race Great Luo Golden Immortal, then fell into the hands of a mid-stage Great Luo expert under the command of the Hun Tian Kui Niu. Now, it has been relocated to the depths of the Chaos.
At this thought, Eldrin could not help but hesitate and ask, "Now that your Chaos Nest is in the hands of the Chaos Demon God, are you confident you can take it back?"
"We don't have much certainty, but this is our greatest chance."
The Violetpole Ancient Phoenix gave a bitter smile, a trace of helplessness flickering across her face. "To be perfectly honest, within this Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest lies the very opportunity that will determine whether I can break through to the eighth level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."
Eldrin also understood the intentions of the Purple Extreme Ancient Phoenix, and thus could not help but nod in agreement.
At this very moment, it was actually the greatest opportunity for the Violet Phoenix to reclaim the Chaos Nest.
For ever since the fall of the 9 Extremes Divine Monarch, the Violet Phoenix of Antiquity had effectively defected from the Chaos Demon Gods' faction. At the very least, within the Eastern Li Flame Domain, the Demi-Patriarch of Li Flame would never tolerate her presence.
Under the hostile gazes of the Chaos Fiends, reclaiming the Chaos Nest posed an immensely formidable challenge for her.
And the reason this moment presents the greatest opportunity is that the main force of the Chaos Fiends remains deadlocked on the frontlines against the human race.
At this moment, seizing back the Chaos Nest still held a reasonable chance of success. Yet if she delayed until the Chaos War concluded, reclaiming the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest would become nearly impossible before the next Chaos War erupted.
At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "I can help you, but we'll need to wait a little longer."
Upon hearing this, the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix felt a flicker of delight and immediately inquired, "When shall we make our move?"
"Soon."
Eldrin smiled faintly, his gaze piercing through the chaotic void before he finally spoke. "My friend has arrived. After I have entertained my guest, we shall continue our discussion in detail."
With these words, Eldrin rose and stepped out of the Return to Ruins Immortal Realm, cupping his hands with a smile. "Brother Lietian, you've endured hardships. I failed to welcome you from afar—pray do not take offense."
The newcomer was clad in golden battle armor, his majestic figure towering and slender. This was none other than the Great Luo Immortal Lord of the Taihan Ancestral Court—Demon Emperor Lietian.
Upon seeing Eldrin, Demon Emperor Lietian smiled and said, "It is my honor to serve you."
Eldrin smiled faintly and ushered Demon Emperor Lietian into the main hall.
After the 2 were seated, Demon Emperor Lietian took out a treasure box and handed it to Eldrin, saying, "The treasures you seek, fellow daoist, are exceptionally rare. 2 of them couldn’t even be found within the Celestial Court."
"Thank you for your assistance, fellow Daoist."
Eldrin opened the treasure box and immediately discovered 5 rare treasures within.
These 5 rarities were all innate spiritual treasures of the 5 Elements, essential for cultivating bloodline supernatural abilities and True Spirit divine patterns. Each was an astonishingly valuable treasure, with every single 1 commanding an exorbitant price.
Over the years, to guard against the Ancient Silver Dragon and the Chaos Kui Ox, Eldrin had remained in the Abyssal Immortal Realm instead of returning to the Primordial Immortal Realm. Moreover, these 5 treasures were exceptionally difficult to locate, so he specifically enlisted the help of Demon Emperor Lietian to gather them.
After all, Rift Sky Immortal Lord had the backing of Lord Taihan, granting him channels and connections even broader than Eldrin's.
At this moment, with all the treasures laid out before him, Eldrin immediately took out several equivalent innate marvels and gave them to Demon Emperor Lietian. With a light laugh, he said, "This time, it was all thanks to your assistance, Fellow Daoist."
"There's no need for formalities between us."
Demon Emperor Lietian shook his head, a trace of emotion coloring his tone. "I've heard you slew the 9 Extremes Divine Lord. Such combat prowess and methods are enough to intimidate all 3 1000 immortal domains—I fall far short of you."
"Merely borrowing the power of the formation, it's not as extraordinary as you imagine."
Eldrin shook his head. After conversing at length with Demon Emperor Lietian, he finally saw him off from the Abyssal Return Immortal Domain.
After seeing off the Celestial Fox Emperor Lietian, Eldrin finally found the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix and said, "I need to go into seclusion for a time. Once I emerge, I shall venture into the depths of the primordial chaos to see if I can retrieve your Chaos Nest for you."
The Violet-Polaris Ancient Phoenix felt a flicker of delight and could not help but speak, "If this matter succeeds, I shall surely repay you generously in the days to come."
Eldrin merely smiled without saying another word.
Returning to the seclusion chamber, Eldrin immediately began refining the 5 rare treasures to complete the metamorphosis of his 5 divine spirit patterns.
As time passed and vast resources were consumed, the 5 great divine spirit patterns of Eldrin finally underwent another transformation, reaching the Minor Achievement realm.
After achieving minor mastery in the 5 True Spirit Divine Patterns, Eldrin discovered his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body had grown substantially stronger, with his overall physical combat prowess significantly enhanced once more.
Even in terms of overall strength, this breakthrough was no small improvement. By Eldrin's own estimation, his combat prowess had increased by roughly 10 to 20 percent—like climbing 1 step higher after already reaching the top.
After completing his breakthrough, Eldrin did not delay any further. He sought out the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix and declared, "There's no time to lose. We set out now."
Upon hearing this, the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix immediately prepared to set out with the Blazing Phoenix and the Primordial Ice Phoenix without hesitation, but was stopped by Eldrin (Person Name).
Eldrin shook his head and said, "Given our current strength, if we encounter an opponent beyond our capabilities to handle, relying solely on 2 newly-ascended Great Perfection cultivators would be of little use."
"Moreover, their injuries haven't fully healed yet. It would be better for them to remain here and continue their recovery."
Hearing this, the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix hesitated slightly. She had originally intended to handle her own affairs by having her own people contribute more effort.
However, since Eldrin advised against it, she did not press the matter further and immediately agreed with his perspective.
Before long, Eldrin and the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix departed from the Abyssal Ruins Immortal Realm.
This time when he left the Abyssal Sanctuary, Eldrin only brought the Purple Zenith Phoenix with him, choosing not to bring Lyra or the others for assistance.
The 2 of them traversed the Chaotic Sea and, without realizing it, bypassed the war frontlines, arriving at the Chaotic Lair deep within the territory of the Chaos Demons.
They traversed through the endless chaos before finally arriving at the location of the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest.
"This is the place."
Gazing upon the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest before her, the Violet Extreme Ancient Phoenix couldn't help but furrow her brow slightly, a trace of solemnity washing over her features.
She took a deep breath and said, "The current Chaos Demon God of the Primordial Violet Phoenix Nest is a Sixth-Level Golden Immortal of the Grand Unity. He is currently fighting on the front lines of the battlefield."
"If we steal the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest, they will most likely be unable to detect it."
"Stolen?"
Eldrin's eyes flickered slightly before he asked, "How do we steal the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest?"
"I have a contingency plan that allows me to enter the Chaos Purple Phoenix Nest undetected."
The Violet Extremity Ancient Phoenix spoke softly, preparing to slip unnoticed into the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest.
Yet Eldrin furrowed his brow slightly and immediately pulled back the Violet Extremity Ancient Phoenix, saying, “Hold on. Wait a moment.”
As he spoke, Eldrin made a series of finger calculations, only to find the heavenly mysteries obscure and inscrutable. The divination signs revealed fluctuating fortunes, as if interfered with by some immensely powerful force.
"Wrong."
Eldrin murmured, gazing at the distant Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest, "There's likely an ambush waiting within that Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest."
The Violet-Pole Ancient Phoenix’s expression shifted slightly, her gaze flickering with uncertainty. She couldn’t help but murmur, “Could it be that they anticipated our arrival all along?”
"Hard to say."
Eldrin shook his head, then raised his hand to perform another divination. Pushing the Great Deduction of Yin-Yang Stars to its absolute limit, he finally glimpsed a fleeting strand of celestial secrets through his True Spirit Heavenly Mechanism divine ability.
Within that sliver of heavenly opportunity, Eldrin saw a divine thunder spear, a silver long spear, and an overwhelmingly domineering golden flame immortal furnace all simultaneously descending to suppress him.
3 formidable adversaries.
Eldrin’s brow furrowed slightly as he murmured with unusual gravity, “The Primordial Silver Dragon, the Chaos-Breaching Kui Bull... and who might the third 1 be?”
Eldrin spoke slowly, "The aura of that golden flame immortal furnace feels quite familiar, yet I've never seen it before. This has piqued my curiosity somewhat."
Upon hearing this, the Violetpole Ancient Phoenix’s expression shifted slightly, and she couldn’t help but ask, “Is there an ambush inside?”
Eldrin did not reply, instead turning his gaze toward the Violet Ultimate Ancient Phoenix as he said, "If I draw away 3 of them, are you confident you can retrieve the Chaos Violet Phoenix Nest?"
The Violetpole Ancient Phoenix pondered briefly before replying, "If they come prepared, I cannot guarantee seizing the Primordial Violet Phoenix Nest. However, if our goal is merely to obtain the Dao-Ascension Opportunity, success is virtually assured."
Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod and declared, "Then I shall give it a try."
As the words fell, Eldrin (Person Name) decisively struck, maneuvering the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure) to press down in suppression.
In an instant, the Void-returning Seal transformed into the paired Celestial Departure Swords, striking the mountain-protecting formation with such overwhelming force that the unmanned barrier shattered into nothingness.
Seeing this, Eldrin immediately stepped forward with delight and walked inside.
But halfway there, his expression abruptly changed, and he immediately flew toward a more distant location.
Boom—
In that same instant, a silver spear pierced the heavens, a divine thunder lance shattered the void, and a pure yang immortal furnace tore through the primordial chaos—all converging simultaneously to suppress Eldrin.
Eldrin rode upon the Twin Swords of Celestial Departure to block the attack, using the momentum to soar even farther into the distance. Yet, a figure clad in a Crown of Pure Yang unexpectedly overtook him, arriving first to bar his path ahead.
