Chapter 2092 : Gathering Storms Over Primordial Realms
Unable to cultivate the Dreamwalking Reincarnation Art [a profound technique for traversing dreams and reincarnation cycles], Eldrin Chen could only set the matter aside for the time being.
In the years that followed, Eldrin Chen began to immerse himself in dedicated cultivation, while the situation across the Southern Abyss Seven Domains [a vast region of seven interconnected realms bordering a southern abyss] also began to shift and change.
First, the three great powerhouses of the Blazing Central Lineage [a powerful faction centered on the principle of blazing yang energy] began to insert their forces into the Three-Level Primordial Domain [a primordial realm structured in three distinct tiers], even scheming to infiltrate the Demon Race Heavenly Court [the celestial court and ruling body of the demon race].
Meanwhile, within the Savage Primordial Domain [a wild and untamed primordial realm], the powerhouses who had mastered the Nine Primordial Chaos Ancestral Veins [nine supreme spiritual veins containing the foundational power of primordial chaos] saw their cultivation advance by leaps and bounds.
Although they were still a considerable distance from the Sage Ascendant Realm [the realm of a Sage Ascendant, a being who has ascended to the threshold of sagehood], their progress remained extraordinarily rapid.
At this pace, Eldrin Chen estimated that within a thousand Kalpa Tribulation [cosmic cycles of immense duration, often spanning billions of years], these individuals would successively break through to the Sage Ascendant Realm.
For the present, however, that crucial breakthrough remained elusive.
Overall, the Southern Abyss Seven Domains remained in a state of relative peace. The major powers were all lying low, accumulating strength and making their final preparations for the impending Heaven Abyss War [a prophesied great war between the forces of heaven and the abyss].
Thus, time flowed on, and in the blink of an eye, nearly three hundred Kalpa Tribulation had passed.
"The time is almost upon us."
On this day, high within the Immortal Court's Heaven's Center [the central administrative and spiritual heart of the Celestial Bureaucracy], amidst the blossoming peach trees of the Flat Peach Orchard [a legendary orchard where peaches of immortality are said to grow].
Eldrin Chen sat facing the Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant. Gazing at the intelligence report in his hand, he spoke with a trace of solemnity.
The Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant before him gave a slight nod. "By my reckoning," he said, "the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a hidden, paradisiacal realm of immense power and opportunity] will manifest before long. For us, this represents a heaven-sent opportunity of monumental scale."
At this thought, a flicker of that same solemnity returned to the Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant's expression. He turned his gaze towards the direction of the Heaven Abyss and continued.
"The turmoil within the Heaven Abyss [a cosmic rift or boundary marking the edge of the known world] is nearing its end. If our predictions hold true, the Outer Realms will be capable of launching their Chaos War [a cataclysmic conflict that threatens the fundamental order of reality] within three hundred Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years]."
Eldrin Chen nodded in agreement. "Precisely," he replied, his voice firm. "That is why we must seize this chance. Within the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven, we must find the catalyst [a pivotal opportunity or resource for advancement] that will allow us to advance another crucial step forward."
The Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant nodded once more, a steely resolve hardening within his eyes.
At that very moment, several auras of peerless majesty soared into the Immortal Court from beyond its borders. They were none other than the Great Abyss Immortal Sage, the Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor, along with the Primordial Mire Divine Sovereign and the Indestructibility Heavenly Emperor—four supreme experts of the Chaos [the primordial state of existence before order, representing the highest known tier of power].
Accompanying them was one other: the Primordial Era Spirit Emperor of the Hundred Immortal Spirit Races [a coalition of ancient, spiritually-attuned races].
The five figures arrived within the Flat Peach Orchard. The Great Abyss Immortal Sage cast a glance at the two seated figures and remarked with a light laugh, "The Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven is on the verge of opening. I had not imagined you would still possess such refined leisure for contemplation."
Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant and Eldrin Chen promptly rose and bowed respectfully to the four figures. Eldrin Chen said with a faint smile, "Regardless of what lies ahead, we need only do our utmost."
"Indeed, that is the way."
Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor nodded in agreement, then spoke, "The matter of the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary hidden realm of profound mysteries] is of paramount importance. It represents a chance for all Sage Ascendant [cultivators who have ascended to the sage-like stage] to grasp the opportunity for their ultimate breakthrough."
"On this journey, you must remember to proceed with the utmost caution."
Both men nodded solemnly. Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant immediately replied, "We shall heed the Path Ancestor's teachings."
Everyone present nodded at these words. Then, Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor declared, "For this journey to the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven, this old man and Fellow Daoist Indestructibility [a title signifying one who has achieved an unbreakable state of being] shall personally escort you there."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen and Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant were instantly overcome with wild joy.
Compared to the Profound Heaven Ruins, the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven was a relic from the Half-Step Limitless [a realm bordering on the boundless and infinite] level. It retained significant foundational treasures, including artifacts that could stir the hearts of even Path Union Supreme [supreme beings who have unified their cultivation path] cultivators.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven was unique. This lineage placed greater emphasis on Fortune [one's destined luck and blessings] and serendipitous encounters. Therefore, even ordinary Sage Ascendant who entered might stumble upon astonishing Creation [the primordial force of creation itself, a supreme treasure].
Consequently, every time the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven opened, it attracted a vast multitude of Sage Ascendant seeking their fortune.
Yet precisely because of this, once the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary cultivation realm] opens, those fortunate enough to enter often become targets for all.
This is especially true for those without a powerful backer like a Chaos Heavenly Emperor [a supreme ruler of primordial chaos], who may invite immense trouble upon themselves.
That is why, this time, the Indestructibility Heavenly Emperor [an ancient and unyielding sovereign] decided to personally escort Eldrin Chen to the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven of the Shattered Realm [a specific, perilous manifestation of the legendary realm].
However, the fact that the Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor [the progenitor of the Primordial Genesis cultivation path] would also personally see them off was a development that far exceeded Eldrin Chen's expectations.
Considering this, Eldrin Chen felt a surge of pleasant surprise, yet he could not help but voice his concern, "For you, Senior, to escort us personally... what of the Southern Abyss Seven Domains [a coalition of seven perilous realms] on this side..."
"It is of no consequence,"
the Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor replied, shaking his head with a gentle smile. "Each opening of the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven represents a grand opportunity for the entire Blazing Central Hundred Domains [a vast region of one hundred fiery domains]."
"Not only us, but the various Heavenly Emperor [supreme rulers] of both the Southern Abyss Seven Domains and the Six Domains of the Northern Abyss [a coalition of six frozen, northern realms] will also be leading their Sage Ascendant [cultivators one step below sagehood] there. Thus, it conversely requires less effort to guard our homes."
Hearing this, Eldrin Chen let out a soft sigh of relief and chose not to inquire further.
Noting his reaction, the Indestructibility Heavenly Emperor added with a laugh, "With this old man and Fellow Daoist Primordial Genesis offering our protection on this journey, your safety should be assured."
"There is no time to delay; let us depart immediately."
Eldrin Chen nodded and immediately followed the two Heavenly Emperor [a supreme title for the most powerful cultivators] as they departed.
This time, besides Eldrin Chen and Obsidian Abyss Great Emperor, the Primordial Era Spirit Emperor would also accompany them to partake in the opportunity presented by the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary pocket dimension containing immense treasures and trials].
Just after they left the Primordial Immortal Domain, they were joined by the Desolate Heaven Quasi-Emperor and the Primordial Beginning Divine Sovereign from the Divine Clan [a powerful clan of divine beings], clearly indicating that the Divine Clan was also unwilling to forgo this chance.
Thus, the group of seven traveled ceaselessly across the Vast and Boundless Chaos Desolation Sea, spending over twenty Kalpa Tribulation [an immense cosmic cycle spanning billions of years] before finally arriving at the periphery of the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven.
At this moment, there was still some time before the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven fully manifested, yet a considerable number of powerful figures had already gathered outside it.
Eldrin Chen surveyed the Eight Desolations and the Six Harmonies [a profound spatial formation], discovering that within this expanse of the Vast and Boundless Chaos Sea, more than three thousand Sage Ascendant [cultivators who have ascended to the penultimate stage before godhood] Patriarch had assembled. Even beings at the Heavenly Emperor level numbered over one hundred.
"What a spectacle,"
Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a trace of solemnity coloring his expression.
It must be understood that within the entire Southern Abyss Seven Domains, there were only twenty or thirty Sage Ascendant at most. Yet here, thousands of Sage Ascendant had gathered, a sight that left Eldrin Chen profoundly astonished.
Among these Sage Ascendant [powerful cultivators who have ascended beyond the Immortal Lord realm], there were no shortage of peerless beings who had stepped into the Limitless Sage Ascendant Realm [the profound and boundless stage of the Sage Ascendant realm]. There were even more than thirty individuals who had cultivated the Nine True Spirit Divine Forms [a supreme divine ability manifesting nine true spiritual avatars].
As for those who had achieved the Sole Divine Form [the pinnacle state of a single, perfected divine avatar], Eldrin Chen witnessed a full twelve of them. Each one was an invincible figure whose combat prowess could startle even immortals.
"The Blazing Central Hundred Domains [the vast and scorching central region comprising one hundred domains] is boundless and vast. Prodigies who are exceedingly rare within the Southern Abyss Seven Domains [the seven domains of the Southern Abyss] might not necessarily be able to forge a renowned and awe-inspiring reputation when viewed across the entirety of the Blazing Central Hundred Domains,"
Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant murmured slowly, a trace of solemnity appearing on his countenance for the first time.
Eldrin Chen also nodded in agreement. Among the crowd, he had seen the Primordial Era Demonic Ape [a legendary and ferocious ape demon from the dawn of time], as well as peerless prodigies like Blazing Central Boundless [the Boundless One of the Blazing Center] and the Azure Mist Female Sage [the Female Sage of the Azure Mist].
What surprised Eldrin Chen the most was the Solar Heavenly Emperor [the Celestial Sovereign of the Sun], or rather, the Ten Great Imperial Scions [the Ten Great Imperial Heirs] standing beside the Solar Heavenly Emperor.
"Their cultivation bases..."
Eldrin Chen was momentarily taken aback, a flicker of astonishment crossing his features.
It turned out that the cultivation of the Ten Great Imperial Scions under the Solar Heavenly Emperor had, unbeknownst to him, already stepped into the Sage Ascendant Realm. All of them, that is, except for the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion.
"Wait, this... this doesn't seem to be the true Sage Ascendant Realm."
Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a flicker of surprise coloring his expression.
The Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor standing beside him also glanced over, then spoke with a note of genuine astonishment, "The Pseudo-Sage Realm? Why would he choose such a path?"
"Pseudo-Sage?"
Eldrin Chen was momentarily taken aback, instantly realizing his initial intuition had been correct.
It turned out that among the Solar Heavenly Emperor's Ten Great Imperial Scions, aside from the eldest, Soaring Sky Imperial Scion, the cultivation of all the others had halted at the Pseudo-Sage Realm, not the true Sage Ascendant Realm.
The so-called Pseudo-Sage Realm referred to a Sage Ascendant who had achieved their breakthrough by consuming their own latent potential, aided by special methods to gestate a Great Path.
Such a Pseudo-Sage possessed roughly eighty percent of a true Sage Ascendant's combat power. Strictly speaking, they were considered peers to Sage Ascendants, yet were not regarded as genuine ones.
Most crucially, a Pseudo-Sage was forged by expending their potential; once they broke through to the Pseudo-Sage Realm, any possibility of further advancement was forever extinguished.
Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen could not help but ask with considerable surprise, "Each of the Solar Heavenly Emperor's Ten Great Imperial Scions possesses heaven-defying talent."
"Moreover, they seized the opportunity presented by the Primordial Chaos Ancestral Vein, cultivating the six great True Spirit Foundations. Each was hailed as an existence at the level of an Invincible Great Emperor."
"But why squander their potential to break through to the mere Pseudo-Sage Realm?"
The Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor also found it strange, yet spoke with immense gravity: "The origins of the Solar Heavenly Emperor's Ten Great Imperial Scions have always been profoundly mysterious, unlike those he personally conceived and birthed."
"Now, the nine Great Emperor scions have exhausted their potential solely to reach the Pseudo-Sage Realm. I fear there are only two possible explanations."
"Two possibilities?"
Eldrin Chen was quite startled and exchanged a glance with the Obsidian Abyss Great Emperor.
The Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor nodded, his expression grave. "Of these two possibilities, the first is that the Solar Heavenly Emperor used some form of Exotic Treasure [a treasure of extraordinary and unique properties] to split off a portion of his own bloodline essence to conceive them."
"The second possibility is that the Solar Heavenly Emperor obtained some peerless Rare Treasure [an object of immense spiritual rarity and power], using it as a foundation to gestate these nine Imperial Scions."
The Indestructibility Ancient One, whose insight was profound, suddenly interjected: "There is a third possibility. He could have simultaneously obtained both an Exotic Treasure and a peerless Rare Treasure."
"Then, harnessing the power of the Exotic Treasure, he severed a part of his own bloodline and fused it into ten peerless Rare Treasure to conceive these ten Imperial Scions."
Hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a sudden clarity dawn upon him.
No wonder the Solar Heavenly Emperor [the supreme ruler of the celestial sun] was able to consecutively give birth to ten peerless and invincible Imperial Scions within a mere one thousand Kalpa Tribulation [an immense cosmic cycle spanning billions of years].
It must be understood that the higher an Immortal's cultivation realm, the more difficult it becomes to conceive offspring bearing their bloodline.
Upon reaching the Chaos Heavenly Emperor [a supreme ruler born of primordial chaos] realm, it often takes hundreds of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation without any guarantee of successfully producing a single heir.
By conventional logic, the probability of the Solar Heavenly Emperor consecutively producing ten Imperial Scions was virtually zero.
However, if these ten invincible scions were formed by fusing the Solar Heavenly Emperor's essence-blood with some kind of Chaos Rare Treasure [a treasure of unparalleled rarity born from primordial chaos], then the explanation becomes far more plausible.
Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "It seems the Solar Heavenly Emperor's Ten Great Imperial Scions might be more accurately described as ten great soul-fragments."
"Not quite the same,"
Obsidian Abyss Great Emperor [the Great Emperor of the Dark Abyss] shook his head and explained, "These Ten Great Imperial Scions inherited the Solar Heavenly Emperor's bloodline, but not his divine soul. Each is an independent being."
"However, the potential of a Heavenly Emperor's bloodline has its limits. Even with a Chaos Rare Treasure serving as the vessel for their gestation, reaching the Great Emperor Realm [the realm of a Great Emperor] is likely their absolute ceiling."
"The reason the ninth Great Emperor's son consumed his potential to break through to the Pseudo-Sage Realm [a realm just below that of a true Sage] was likely because he was constrained by his own foundational limitations, finding it impossible to advance any further."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen nodded in understanding.
Similar to the Soul-Splitting Profound Art [a mystical technique that allows a cultivator to split their soul or essence], offspring born from differentiated bloodline essence often retain only a small fraction of their paternal progenitor's potential.
Furthermore, such offspring typically possess various inherent flaws; whether in innate aptitude or latent potential, they are far inferior to children conceived and nurtured within a mother's womb.
Logically, offspring of such Heavenly Emperor [a supreme sovereign whose power and authority are said to rival the heavens themselves] bloodlines would find it exceedingly difficult to reach the level of a Primordial One Imperial Lord [a supreme realm of cultivation representing the pinnacle of power for an imperial sovereign].
Otherwise, a Heavenly Emperor could simply expend their foundational essence, differentiate countless drops of vital blood, and cultivate a limitless number of bloodline descendants.
It is likely that the Solar Heavenly Emperor [the Heavenly Emperor associated with the supreme power of the sun] employed some form of Chaos Rare Treasure [an artifact born from the primordial chaos, possessing unimaginable power and rarity] as an embryonic vessel to enhance the innate aptitude of these bloodline offspring. However, fusing with a Chaos Rare Treasure often results in the loss of future malleability.
The inherent ceiling of that Chaos Rare Treasure would have innately locked the potential upper limit of the Ten Great Imperial Scions [the ten most powerful and renowned imperial heirs], rendering any further advancement impossible.
Only this explanation can account for why the Ten Great Imperial Scions would sacrifice their future potential to break through to the Pseudo-Sage Realm [a realm that mimics the power of a true Sage but lacks its foundational completeness].
For the absolute limit of their potential was merely at the level of an Invincible Great Emperor [a Great Emperor whose power is considered unmatched within their realm], with no possibility of ever setting foot into the Sage Ascendant Realm [the revered realm of a true Sage, a step below the ultimate Path Ancestors].
Having comprehended all of this, Eldrin Chen felt no joy, only a profound and somber clarity.
He always felt something was amiss, and with a grave expression, he said, "Although the nine Pseudo-Sage [a realm just below the Sage Ascendant] are formidable combatants, I have a growing suspicion that the Solar Heavenly Emperor's designs run far deeper than this."
The Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor nodded, then cast a glance at Soaring Sky Imperial Scion. His gaze turned profoundly serious as he remarked, "This Soaring Sky Imperial Scion is peculiar. It seems he has not yet fused with a Chaos Rare Treasure [a supreme treasure born from primordial chaos]."
"Therefore, compared to the others, this Soaring Sky Imperial Scion appears to possess greater potential for refinement. It seems he harbors the possibility of stepping beyond the Sage Ascendant [a supreme realm of cultivation]."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen could not help but feel a surge of astonishment.
Among the former Ten Great Imperial Scions of the Solar Heavenly Emperor, the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion was considered to have the poorest potential and aptitude, initially thought to be the weakest of them all.
Yet now it appeared that the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion's malleability was instead the greatest, likely representing the most crucial piece in the Solar Heavenly Emperor's grand scheme.
"He is raising a gu [a reference to the practice of cultivating venomous insects to fight until only the strongest survives]."
Suddenly, Eldrin Chen felt a chill run down his spine.
A dreadful intuition struck him: the other nine Great Emperor scions among the Ten Great Imperial Scions were likely mere foils, cultivated solely as supporting players for the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion.
Their bloodlines were intricately linked, and even their souls seemed to share an uncanny resonance, suggesting a terrifying potential for mutual assimilation.
Among the Ten Great Imperial Scions, if only the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion possesses the potential to ascend further, then the purpose for the existence of the other nine Great Emperor scions becomes silently, yet undeniably, clear.
"They... are all sacrificial offerings meant for the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion."
As this thought flickered through his mind, Eldrin Chen exchanged a glance with the Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant, a trace of wary apprehension flashing in their eyes.
If his conjecture held true, then this Soaring Sky Imperial Scion would likely become the most formidable foe, a potential peerless adversary in their future path.
"It seems we must tread with caution regarding this Soaring Sky Imperial Scion."
Eldrin Chen murmured, his expression turning grave.
The Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant beside him nodded in agreement, then added with a meaningful tone, "The Celestial Furnace Secret Realm might well present the perfect opportunity for this Soaring Sky Imperial Scion to ascend to the heavens in a single step."
Hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a stir within. Legends spoke of a supremely potent opportunity within the Celestial Furnace Secret Realm known as—the 'Immortal Refining Heaven' [a legendary realm said to refine one's very being towards immortality].
This realm could vastly increase one's chances of successfully fusing the Nine True Spirit Divine Forms [the ultimate divine manifestations representing nine primordial true spirits], and might offer immense aid to someone in the Soaring Sky Imperial Scion's unique circumstances.
Contemplating this, a slight frown creased Eldrin Chen's brow, but he swiftly reined in his wandering thoughts.
How others fared was of no concern to him.
He needed only to continuously surpass himself, to shatter his own limits, and he would be peerless, unrivaled across the heavens and the earth.
Thus, Eldrin Chen spoke no more, quietly awaiting the opening of the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary pocket dimension forged by ancient powers].
Time flowed on relentlessly, and before anyone realized it, tens of millions of years had passed.
Until this very day, when the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] ahead was torn asunder, an indescribable aperture ripped open by sheer force.
"The Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven has opened."
As the thought crossed Eldrin Chen's mind, he witnessed thousands of Sage Ascendant [powerful beings one step below the legendary Sages] take to the skies, stepping forth to be the first to enter the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven.
Seeing this, the Primordial Genesis Path Ancestor [an ancient and venerable master of the Dao, the fundamental principle of existence] also spoke: "You may proceed. We shall await you here."
"Our gratitude to you, Seniors."
Eldrin Chen clasped his hands in salute towards the several Heavenly Emperor [supreme sovereigns who rule over celestial domains], offered his thanks, and then strode directly into the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven.
The Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant, the Desolate Heaven Quasi-Emperor, and the Primordial Era Spirit Emperor followed closely behind, immediately stepping into the Vast and Boundless Chaos.
As soon as Eldrin Chen landed, his brow furrowed slightly, revealing a trace of surprise.
He looked around and found himself in a dark, boundless ocean. All around was an inky black expanse, filled with terrifyingly potent black Heavy Water [a form of water so dense and heavy it can crush mountains].
"This place is the Sunken Abyss Heaven," the Obsidian Abyss Sage Ascendant spoke slowly, his tone grave.
"In its prime, the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven once used nine Middle Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [powerful artifacts forged from primordial chaos] as its foundation, fusing and refining nine great Chaos Lair [primordial domains of pure chaos], ultimately forming the Ninefold Heavenly Domain."
"This Ninefold Heaven contained the power of nine Path Union Supreme [the supreme realm where one's cultivation path merges with the cosmos], exerting immense pressure even on a Chaos Heavenly Emperor [a sovereign emperor who rules over chaos itself]. It was the ultimate training ground for disciples of the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven."
The Desolate Heaven Quasi-Emperor, who had also visited this place before, spoke with evident envy, "Later, when the Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven met its calamity, the Ninefold Heavenly Domain was shattered, losing Fivefold Heaven [five of its nine heavenly layers]."
"Only the Soul-Burial Heaven, the Path-Forging Heaven, the Immortal Refining Heaven, and this Sunken Abyss Heaven remain, fused together to form the ruins of this Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a profound shock within his heart.
To use nine Middle Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure as a foundation, combined with the power of nine Chaos Lair, to forge nine Supreme Grotto-Heaven [the highest order of immortal paradises]—such profound foundational strength and heritage was truly unimaginable.
It must be understood that after one's cultivation reaches the realm of a Sage Ascendant [a supreme cultivator who has ascended beyond the Immortal Sovereign realm], it is fundamentally difficult to find places that can truly temper oneself further.
Yet this place can continue to utilize external forces to hone one's body and spirit, potentially allowing Great Emperor [a supreme ruler among cultivators, surpassing Immortal Sovereigns] and even Sage Ascendant cultivators to continue shattering their own limits.
Thinking of this, Eldrin Chen could not help but feel immense envy as he said, "To possess such a cultivation treasure land shows how supremely glorious the ancient Heavenly Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary self-contained paradise realm] must have been."
Hearing his words, everyone present nodded in agreement.
The Primordial Era Spirit Emperor [an ancient sovereign from the dawn of time] sighed softly before speaking, "Within these four great Heavenly Domain [vast celestial regions], they are not merely cultivation treasure lands for those at the Chaos Tier [the primordial and most fundamental level of power]."
"They also contain supreme opportunities and fortunes. Alas, I fear I am destined to have no share in them."
Eldrin Chen nodded, a faint glimmer of comprehension dawning within him.
As a supreme Chaos Grotto-Heaven [a primordial paradise realm born from chaos], the Sunken Abyss Heaven [the Sunken Abyss Heavenly Realm] could ingest and exhale Chaos Origin [the primordial essence from which all things are born], giving birth to vast quantities of Chaos Rare Treasure [rare treasures forged from primordial chaos] and even Chaos Spiritual Artifact [divine artifacts imbued with chaotic power]. It could even nurture Chaos Genesis Energy [the primordial creative energy that shaped existence].
However, to seek such treasures, one must venture into the deepest reaches of the Sunken Abyss Heaven.
And the Sunken Abyss Heaven is filled with Chaos Heavy Water [water of unimaginable density, born from primordial chaos]. Each single drop possesses the weight of hundreds of millions of Heavenly Wheel [a standard unit of weight within the Chaotic Desolation Sea], and the Heavenly Wheel itself is the standard unit for measuring weight within the Chaos Desolation Sea [the vast, primordial sea of chaos and desolation].
Generally speaking, a standard Heavenly Wheel [a cosmic artifact shaped like a celestial wheel] is forged from a vast quantity of Great Encompassing Divine Iron [a legendary metal of immense density and divine properties], its weight comparable to that of a Great Universe [a vast cosmic structure] spanning hundreds of billions of light-years.
