Chapter 2022 : Sacrifice to My Dao 'Primordial Chaos Chapter
Chapter 2023 Sacrifice to My Dao - Primordial Chaos Chapter (5,000 Words) Thinking of this, Eldrin spoke: "By the way, I possess a supreme treasure that can help cultivators below the Great Perfection Realm rebuild their foundations."
"Young masters and ladies from the Great Barren Primordial Realm, you may all seek me out to rebuild your foundations."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately revealed expressions of ecstatic joy.
The Elder Priest immediately bowed deeply, his tone bordering on reverence, "Many thanks, Realm Lord. I shall make the arrangements at once."
Eldrin nodded calmly. The Great Desolate Ancient Realm existed within the chaotic expanse of the Primordial Sea, where no adversaries could pose a threat to him. Even if the Cauldron of Creation were exposed, it would no longer be a significant concern.
Moreover, given Eldrin’s current strength and the authority over the Heavenly Dao of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm, he no longer needed to tread as cautiously as he had during his Great Perfection stage.
To get back to the story, after the 9 high priests had departed, Eldrin turned to Aman and asked, "Would you be willing to convert to the Path of Self-Sacrifice?"
"Specializing in the Path of Sacrificial Ascension?"
A look of astonishment surfaced on A Man's face as he couldn't help but exclaim, "With my current cultivation level, can I also switch to cultivating the Path of Self-Sacrifice?"
Generally speaking, a newly ascended Primordial Chaos Emperor would require over a 1000 kalpas of arduous cultivation—without access to resources like Primordial Chaos Pills—to break through to the middle stage of Primordial Chaos Emperor.
Meanwhile, his true self entered the seclusion chamber, ready to begin his breakthrough in cultivation.
In almost a trance-like moment, Eldrin felt his spiritual power and physical essence surge violently, ultimately shattering through a certain limit.
Boom—
"Both physical body and magic power have increased by approximately 50 percent."
As the words faded, Eldrin activated the Cauldron of Creation to help Aman begin rebuilding her foundation.
Eldrin gave a slight nod and said calmly, "You could say that."
With the power of the Creation Cauldron (Magic Treasure), even if only a fraction of its full potential could be unleashed, there remained a possibility of aiding the Primordial Chaos Emperor (Cultivator Title) in reforging his foundation.
In the vast expanse of primordial chaos, after 1's cultivation reaches the realm of the Primordial Chaos Emperor, progressing further requires an exceedingly protracted span of time.
After helping A’man rebuild her foundation, Eldrin left behind an avatar to wield the Cauldron of Creation and assist the remnants of the Great Wasteland in reforging their foundations to embrace the Path of Self-Offering.
Eldrin spoke these words as he produced the Cauldron of Creation.
It was precisely for this reason that Eldrin's Great Dao spiritual power and Chaos Indestructible Body had already achieved breakthroughs, yet his soul cultivation remained stagnant at the first level of Primordial Chaos Emperor.
Eldrin shook his head with a bitter smile, patting the boy’s head as he said, “You have decent talent—don’t waste it.”
As this drop of Chaos Divine Liquid was refined, it instantly transformed into an abyssal and oceanic power that flooded through Eldrin's (Person Name) primordial spirit.
In his spare time, he would occasionally venture into the Chaos Realm to slay Chaos Desolators and Chaos Nests, acquiring some innate treasures.
Eldrin (Person Name) currently lacked sufficient magical power to unleash the full might of this Primordial Supreme Treasure. Yet even a fraction of its power would be more than enough to help Amon (Person Name) rebuild his foundation.
It is arduous for a Great Luo Golden Immortal to rebuild their foundation. Only after 10 million years had passed did Aman, with the aid of the Cauldron of Creation, finally sever his original foundation and embark once more upon the path of cultivation.
Such a vast immortal realm could no longer be described as a Great Luo Immortal Realm—it ought to be called a Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm.
However, such rare treasures do possess certain inherent biases.
Boom—!
Over these years, Eldrin refined 1 Chaos Godly Liquid per kalpa on average, nearly equivalent to consuming over 60 Primordial Chaos Pills. His Chaos Indestructible Body had finally reached the threshold of the second level of Primordial Chaos.
However, with an ample supply of cultivation resources at the level of the Primordial Chaos Immortal Pill, the breakthrough time could be shortened to within 30 kalpas, or even fewer than 20 kalpas.
"Only my soul cultivation has yet to make a breakthrough."
But deep within the chaos, a supreme and majestic figure wielded the Chaos Heavenly Halberd, each strike cleaving through layer upon layer of the vast primordial void.
Eldrin’s thoughts flickered briefly before he withdrew them entirely.
"Could it be... success?"
Thus time flew by, and before anyone realized it, several kalpas had passed.
Eldrin murmured inwardly, a faint furrow creasing his gaze.
"It seems I'll need to secure some soul cultivation resources in the days to come."
Chaos God Liquid is a composite cultivation resource that can be used not only to temper the physical body, but also to enhance spiritual energy and the primordial soul.
Once this Chaos Divine Liquid was refined, 40 percent of its power would transform into physical strength, another 40 percent would be converted into magical power, and the remaining 20 percent would be absorbed by the primordial spirit.
This celestial realm was a 100 times vaster than even a superior-grade immortal domain, its diameter nearly 1-tenth that of the Primordial Wilderness.
After realizing this, Aman hesitated slightly and couldn't help but say, "Brother Nian, if I learn your cultivation method, wouldn't that make me your disciple?"
On this day, from within the chaotic barren sea, came a series of sounds as if heaven and earth were being torn asunder.
In an instant, Eldrin felt both his physical strength and magical power surge dramatically. Only after a long while, as his aura gradually stabilized, did he realize that his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body and magical power had each increased by approximately 50 percent.
"Difficult it may be, but not impossible."
In the years that followed, Eldrin continued his cultivation within the Great Desolate Ancient Realm while simultaneously refining the method to break through to the Primordial Chaos realm through the Sacrificial Self Dao.
1 celestial realm after another was torn asunder, as the primordial clarity and turbidity of heaven and earth rose and fell. In a daze, a vast immortal domain slowly emerged.
Eldrin's Chaos God Liquid possessed efficacy far more astonishing than the Primordial Chaos Elixir. A single drop could rival 10 Primordial Chaos Elixirs.
"I don't wish to be your disciple." A'man's eyes glimmered as she spoke, "I still want to call you Brother Nian."
At this moment, Eldrin arrived at the secluded cultivation chamber and refined another drop of Primordial Chaos Divine Liquid.
Not far away, beyond the Primordial Wilderness Domain, a group of Great Luo Golden Immortals murmured softly, a trace of urgency flickering in their gleaming eyes.
But at that very moment, a colossal wave of chaos swept forth, and the vast Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm slowly crumbled, ultimately disintegrating into dust beneath the turbulent tides.
"Still no success."
Amidst the primordial chaos, Eldrin stood firm gripping the Chaotic Heavenly Halberd, his gaze sweeping across the fragmented expanse of the Primordial Immortal Realm. A trace of solemnity flickered deep within his eyes.
He pondered silently for a long while before speaking, "The method is clearly correct, and it shares the same foundation as the Primordial Realm of the Great Wilds. So why does it still fail?"
"Could it be that artificially opening the Mixed Yuan Immortal Realm absolutely requires the support of a top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root)?"
Eldrin murmured softly, yet still shook his head.
Since breaking through to the Second Heaven of Primordial Chaos, several kalpas had passed. Eldrin had attempted to establish his Primordial Chaos Realm dozens of times, accumulating considerable experience in the process....
He had a premonition that even if he were to obtain a supreme-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) to stabilize the world, this Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm would still shatter into oblivion.
"No wonder even the venerable Taishi Dao Ancestor never succeeded in creating a method to establish a Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain."
Eldrin couldn't help but feel somewhat disheartened. He sighed softly, wondering, "Could it be that the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm truly cannot exist?"
At this thought, Eldrin returned to the Great Desolate Primordial Domain.
"You wish to establish the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm?"
After returning to the Great Wilderness Primordial Domain, Eldrin suddenly heard a voice.
Eldrin (Person Name) froze momentarily before swiftly discerning the identity of the speaker. Without delay, he inquired, "You've awakened?"
"Hmm, the Primordial Wildlands are gradually restoring, and I have awakened because of it."
The speaker was none other than the Heavenly Dao consciousness of the Primordial Realm of the Great Barrens.
Eldrin nodded, recalling the will of the Primordial Wasteland. He couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that you know how to establish the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain?"
"Of course."
The Heavenly Dao spoke unhurriedly, its consciousness devoid of joy or sorrow: "Your path is misguided—have you failed to find the right direction?"
"The path is wrong?" Eldrin was momentarily stunned before asking, "What error could there possibly be?"
The Heavenly Dao did not answer, but instead posed a question in return: "Do you know why the Primordial Realm and the Chaos Abyss exist?"
Eldrin was momentarily taken aback before suddenly comprehending. With dawning realization, he murmured, "Born of the Dao."
"Yes, born of the Dao."
The Way of Heaven spoke unhurriedly, then fell silent.
Eldrin (Person Name) finally understood everything upon hearing this and could not help but say with a smile, "So that's how it is."
In that moment, Eldrin understood why neither he nor the Primordial Dao Ancestor could ever establish the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain.
For in the vast expanse of primordial chaos, all things are born of the Dao.
Whether it be the Chaos Nest or the Primal Domain, they are fundamentally manifestations born from the convergence of countless great daos and the Primordial Chaos Sea.
The Great Path is the soul, the Chaos Sea is substance, and through their mutual nurturing, Chaos Nests, boundless sentient beings, and even the infinite cosmos came into being.
Whether it be deities cleaving the heavens, ascending to the cosmos, or even establishing immortal domains—these are but superficial applications of cosmic principles, natural laws, and the profound Dao.
These are merely brute force methods of forging a path, yet to touch upon the true core of the Great Dao.
In other words, no matter how many immortal realms were established or how many chaos nests emerged, it had absolutely no impact on the primordial chaos itself.
Even if 1 day immortal realms were to abound throughout the chaos, the eruption of a single Chaos Annihilation Tribulation would still suffice to reduce all these realms back to primordial chaos.
The Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm, however, was entirely different. At this level, 1 began to touch the fundamental authority of the Great Dao itself.
In other words, the birth of every Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm must arise from the fusion of the authority of the Great Dao's origin with the Chaotic Sea.
No matter how powerful a Great Path may be, the number of Primal Chaos Immortal Domains it can nurture is finite, unlike the boundless proliferation of ordinary immortal domains.
Therefore, to establish the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm, 1 must integrate their own Great Dao into it.
"Only by integrating 1's own Great Dao into their immortal domain can 1 ascend to become a Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain."
"The strength of the immortal domain 1 ultimately ascends to is determined by the potency of their personal Dao foundation."
Eldrin murmured inwardly, roughly grasping the reason why the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm could not manifest....
The Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm possessed a fatal flaw. Since the Primordial Chaos Emperor had integrated his Great Dao into the realm, its destruction would inflict catastrophic injuries upon him.
After the Primordial Emperor entrusted his Great Dao to the immortal realm, his power would inevitably wane once he departed from his domain.
Such a monumental flaw would deter anyone from paying such an exorbitant price to establish the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm.
Even if the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain could nurture all manner of Primordial Chaos wonders, it remained a rather disproportionate exchange for the comings and goings of a Primordial Chaos Emperor.
At this thought, Eldrin (Person Name) suddenly brightened, exclaiming with delight, "This Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm—isn't it a perfect match for the Path of Self-Sacrifice?"
In that moment, Eldrin's heart surged with overwhelming joy as he instantly discovered the method to tread the Path of Self-Offering into the Primordial Chaos Realm.
Indeed, for practitioners of the Sacrificial Path, the Inner Immortal Domain has always been their own dantian.
It is only natural to anchor 1's Great Dao within 1's own dantian.
Moreover, the Inner Immortal Realm is 1 with the Path of Self-Offering. Practitioners of the Path of Self-Offering can freely traverse the primordial chaos while carrying the Inner Immortal Realm, without worrying about a decline in combat prowess after leaving the Primordial Unity Immortal Realm.
Moreover, by anchoring the Great Dao within the Inner Immortal Domain, 1 could significantly enhance its combat prowess.
Thus, the Path of Sacrifice and the conditions for establishing the Primordial Chaos Immortal Realm could be said to be in near-perfect alignment.
Most crucially, with this condition fulfilled, the method for the Sacrificial Dao to advance to the Chaos Heavenly Emperor appeared to be perfectly aligned.
Even though ascending to the Primordial Realm was an immensely arduous challenge, at the very least, he had perfectly fulfilled its most fundamental prerequisite: the Path of Self-Devotion.
"So that's how it is! So that's how it is!"
Eldrin's heart surged with wild ecstasy, and without hesitation, he began refining the cultivation method of the Sacrificial Self Path.
Soon, Eldrin perfected the method to break through to the Chaos Origin Realm of the Path of Self-Devotion, refining it even further upon its original foundation.
Given the sheer vastness of the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain, not all Sacrificial Selves of the Path of Self-Offering could fully contain it. Thus, Eldrin further simplified the conditions for the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain within the body.
According to Eldrin's (Person Name) deduction, when practitioners of the Path of Self-Sacrifice break through to the Primordial Chaos Realm, their foundation determines whether they achieve Minor Primordial Chaos, Major Primordial Chaos, or Infinite Primordial Chaos.
The Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain opened by the Minor Primordial Chaos was extremely small, approximately 10 times the size of a superior-grade immortal domain—equivalent to 1-tenth the scale of the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain.
The Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain, opened through the Great Primordial Chaos, was approximately 30 times the size of a superior-grade immortal domain, yet constituted merely 1-third of the Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain.
The Limitless Primordial Chaos manifested a world-shaking constitution, forging a complete Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain that possessed 100% of its full power.
These 3 sacrificial paths lead to the Chaos Origin Emperor. The Minor Chaos Origin has limited potential, reaching at most the middle stage of Chaos Origin Emperor.
Great Primordial Chaos possessed exceptional aptitude, capable of breaking through to the Great Emperor realm, with combat prowess rivaling those of equal cultivation standing.
However, the Path of Self-Sacrifice of the Grand Primordial Chaos, due to its opened Primordial Chaos Immortal Domain being incomplete, struggles to reach the realm of Chaos Heavenly Emperor. Only by supplementing the Inner Immortal Domain can 1 potentially advance further.
Limitless Primordial Chaos, within his body lay a complete Chaos Immortal Domain, theoretically possessing the potential to ascend to the Primal Domain and break through to the realm of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor.
Such a figure, once breaking through to the Chaos Heavenly Emperor realm and empowered by a Primordial Domain within—even if it were merely a small Primordial Domain—would possess combat prowess unrivaled among those of the same cultivation level….
For now, however, Eldrin remained unable to refine the method of advancing to the Primordial Domain, thus the Path of Self-Offering could only stagnate at the realm of Chaos Origin Emperor.
"The Sacrificial Self Path of the Primordial Chaos Realm is finally complete."
Having perfected the Sacrificial Dao of the Primordial Chaos Realm, Eldrin murmured softly, a ripple of emotion shimmering in his gaze.
To his astonishment, after perfecting the Path of Self-Sacrifice within the Primordial Chaos Realm, the authority of this Great Dao had been further refined, directly elevating it to the Sixth Layer of the Primordial Chaos Emperor's domain.
Though the path to the perfected Primordial Dao remained a distant journey, each step brought him closer to its profound mysteries.
"If I were to return to the 7 Domains of the Southern Abyss, my Path of Self-Sacrifice would surely drive all major powers to madness."
Eldrin smiled faintly. A peerless path that could lead directly to the realm of the Primordial Chaos Emperor was enough to captivate countless supreme prodigies.
After all, those who dared to aspire to become the Chaos Heavenly Emperor were ultimately few and far between.
The vast majority of prodigies at the Crown Prince level spend their entire lives striving for the realm of Primordial Chaos Emperor. Were they to learn that the Path of Self-Sacrifice leads directly to this very realm, they would likely abandon their current cultivation methods in a frenzy to pursue it.
At this thought, Eldrin's brow furrowed slightly, and a trace of coldness flickered once more in his pupils.
"Over these years, the power of Sacrificial Daoism has seen almost no breakthroughs."
"It seems those individuals must have expended tremendous resolve to hinder the growth of the Sacrificial Ascension Path."
"Upon my return…"
Eldrin's eyes turned icy cold as he ultimately suppressed all his inner turmoil.
At this thought, Eldrin pondered for a moment before ultimately rising to summon the 9 high priests.
Gazing at the 9 high priests, Eldrin stated plainly, "Unbeknownst to me, 1 100 and 20-9 billion, 6 100 million years have passed since I arrived in the Great Desolate Ancient Realm."
"Now that the Primordial Ancient Realm's essence has been restored and the celestial spiritual energy between heaven and earth is gradually intensifying, it is time to deploy the Celestial Domain Grand Formation to suppress the power of the Chaotic Abyssal Sea and expel the forces of desolation."
Upon hearing this, all the immortals present could not help but show expressions of either shock or delight.
They understood that to set up the Immortal Domain Grand Formation, 1 must gather the primordial Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root). Thus, Eldrin (Person Name)'s words implied his intention to wage war against the surrounding barren lands.
At this thought, the High Priest still asked with concern, "Currently, our Great Wilderness Primordial Realm is undergoing a transformation to cultivate the Path of Self."
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, our strength will see significant improvement within the next 10 kalpas."
"Lord of the Realm, why not wait a while longer? Once we've added a new batch of Great Luo Golden Immortals, we might just increase our chances of success."
Eldrin shook his head and asked, "Even if the Primordial Barren Domain has improved, the 3 great wastelands are no weaklings. Once a conflict breaks out, you will suffer devastating losses."
"I shall go alone. Should any mishap occur, I would still be able to return unscathed."
Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but exchange bewildered glances.
The Elder Priest took a deep breath before finally speaking, "If that is the case, we shall take the sacred text and lend the Realm Lord a hand."
"No need."
Eldrin still refused, shaking his head as he said, "My injuries have already healed. Those Chaos Barbarian Tribes pose little threat to me now."
"The Sacred Tome must remain in the Great Barren Ancient Realm to resist the power of desolation. Remember, it must never be invoked lightly."
Hearing this, the crowd finally set aside their intentions.
Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) spoke up, "Stay here and await my good news."
As the words faded, Eldrin stepped out of the Great Barren Ancient Realm, tore through the vast chaos, and arrived amidst the Myriad Star Archipelago.
Around the Great Desolate Ancient Realm, there exist 3 major forbidden zones of the desolate domains.
Among them, the Abyssal Sea of Swords stood as the most formidable. This lineage primarily descended from the fallen Sword Abyss Immortal Palace, once 1 of the 10 Great Holy Lands of the Primordial Desolate Domain.
It is said that within the Sword Abyss Realm Sea, there exist 2 cultivators at the late-stage of the Primordial Chaos Emperor Realm, 1 of whom has even reached the eighth level of the Primordial Chaos Emperor Realm.
By comparison, the Myriad Star Archipelago was somewhat weaker. This branch had only 1 Chaos Emperor-stage primordial being at the late stage, transformed from the former ‘Daybreaker Emperor’.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 1 The biting northern wind swept across the mountain peaks, carrying with it crystalline snowflakes that danced in the air like shattered jade. Upon the training platform, a youth clad in azure robes stood with his eyes closed, his fingers forming intricate seals. Wisps of spiritual energy swirled around him, coalescing into faint, shimmering patterns before dissipating into the void. "Lin Yuan, your cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining," an elder's voice echoed from behind. "But remember, the path of immortality is fraught with countless tribulations. Do not become complacent over minor achievements." The youth named Lin Yuan opened his eyes, their depths flashing with a gleam of determination. "This disciple understands. I will not disappoint the sect's expectations." In his spatial pouch rested precisely 32,000 spirit stones and over a 100 Foundation Establishment Pills—resources painstakingly accumulated through 20-some years of arduous cultivation. These would be crucial for his upcoming breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment realm. Suddenly, a crimson streak pierced through the clouds, resolving into a messenger talisman that hovered before Lin Yuan. The characters glowed with urgent intensity: "The Demon Sect marches. All disciples return to the main hall immediately." His expression tightened. For thousands of years, the conflict between righteous and demonic paths had raged like an unquenchable wildfire. Now, it seemed the flames were spreading once more. Grasping the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure) at his waist, Lin Yuan's gaze swept across the familiar mountain ranges. 1 100 years had passed since he first entered these sacred grounds, yet the journey ahead remained longer than any could fathom. "Let's go," he murmured to himself, his figure blurring into a streak of light that shot toward the distant peaks where the sect's main hall stood vigil. The wind whispered of impending storms, carrying the scent of ozone and change.
