Chapter 2163 : Legends of the Peerless Supreme

These seven individuals were all peerless Supreme [a title denoting a cultivator who has reached the pinnacle of their path], standing among the mightiest prodigies within the entire Chaos [the primordial, formless state from which all existence emerged], their names etched upon the illustrious Peerless Supreme Ranking List [a legendary ranking that lists the most powerful cultivators across the cosmos] within its top one hundred entries.

Among the seven, the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path [the four legendary founders of the primary cultivation methodologies] need no introduction; they are Cang, Hong, Luo, and Yuan—four peerless Supreme.

Each of these four possessed combat prowess that defied the heavens, every one of them ranked within the top fifty names on the Peerless Supreme Ranking List.

Among them, Cang wielded the peerless weapon of slaughter, the 'Nine Tribulations Sword of the Ancient Ruins' [a legendary sword set forged to endure and embody nine cosmic tribulations]. It was a set of Chaos Spiritual Artifact [artifacts of immense power forged from primordial chaos], comprising one Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [the highest grade of artifact born from chaos] as the primary sword and eight Middle Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [powerful artifacts of the middle grade born from chaos] as its subsidiary blades.

In ages past, 'Cang' had relied upon the Nine Tribulations Sword of the Ancient Ruins to roam the Chaos with no equal to be found, securing the ninth position upon the Peerless Supreme Ranking List.

Hong founded the Guizang Path [the Path of the Abyssal Repository], and was the foremost master of the Way of Celestial Mechanism [the Dao of Heavenly Calculation and Mechanism]. Throughout history, he had rarely taken action personally, yet his calculations were flawless and all-encompassing, making him the most enigmatic figure among the founding ancestors of the Immortal Path [the primary cultivation methodology seeking immortality].

Yuan was the Founding Ancestor of Formations [the progenitor of all formation arts]. He cultivated a set of seventy-two Primordial Chaos Formation Flags [banners used as cores for formations of primordial power], named the 'Heaven Abyss Earthly Fiends Saint-Slaying Banners' [Banners for Slaying Saints from the Heavenly Abyss and Earthly Fiends]. Each banner was a Middle Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure, and once deployed, the formation they created could refine and annihilate even a Peerless Supreme [a cultivator who has reached the supreme pinnacle with no peer].

It was precisely because of this that Yuan's might had shaken both past and present, allowing him to rank within the top ten even among Peerless Supreme.

'Luo' was the Founding Ancestor of Puppetry. Legend spoke of him cultivating three thousand Heavenly Emperor Puppet [puppets imbued with the power and authority of a Heavenly Emperor]. When combined with Yuan's methods to lay down a grand formation, they could dominate the Chaos, leaving no foe to be found.

However, deploying such a formation was exceedingly complex and cumbersome. Moreover, he alone could not activate it; it could only be used for positional warfare where advantages of timing, terrain, and unity were all perfectly aligned.

At this moment, Luo had brought only twelve puppets, but each of these twelve puppets was forged from vast quantities of Upper Grade Chaos Rare Treasure [a supreme-grade treasure refined from primordial chaos materials], their cultivation levels all comparable to the Half-Step Limitless Realm [a legendary state beyond the known cultivation realms].

The Three Heroes of Path Creation [a legendary trio of supreme cultivators who founded new cultivation paths] were respectively 'Xuan' [Mystery], the 'Old Man of Celestial Stele' [an ancient, sentient stone monument], and the 'Jade Flute Path Ancestor' [the progenitor of the musical cultivation path].

Xuan was that peerlessly elegant woman, the dao companion of 'Cang' [Vast Azure]. Her dao title was 'Primordial Beginning Mysterious Maiden' [the Enigmatic Maiden of the Primordial Beginning]. She founded the Way of Mysterious Law [a profound cultivation path centered on the laws of mystery] and, through the Art of Mysterious Energy [a technique for manipulating enigmatic energies], reached the Half-Step Limitless Realm.

The path of the Mysterious Dao transcends the Immortal Path [the conventional path of immortal cultivation], making it arguably one of the strongest cultivation Great Path [a supreme cultivation methodology] outside the Immortal Path, and it is widely disseminated throughout the Chaos [the primordial, formless realm beyond ordered worlds].

The 'Old Man of Celestial Stele' was a sentient being born from a fragmented stone stele. Legends say it originated from beyond this Chaos Epoch [the current grand cosmic cycle], and upon its broken surface was inscribed a scripture not belonging to this epoch.

This Celestial Stele [the Heavenly Stone Monument] is indestructible, seemingly having weathered the Great Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial] of the Chaos Returning Abyss [the hypothesized end of a chaos epoch where all returns to void].

For reasons unknown, the Old Man of Celestial Stele awakened sentience and thus embarked on the path of cultivation.

He often travels bearing the Celestial Stele on his back, spreading the Chaos scriptures of the previous epoch throughout the Chaos. Hence, he is called the Old Man of Celestial Stele, and some also refer to him as the Celestial Stele Patriarch [a venerable title for a founding master].

The final member, the Jade Flute Path Ancestor, is said to be a mere mortal who attained the Dao through music, founding the path of musical cultivation. His cultivation also reached the Half-Step Limitless Realm, and his ranking on the Peerless Supreme Ranking List [a legendary list ranking the most powerful beings across realms] is notably high.

The sudden, coordinated assault of these seven Peerless Supreme [beings who have reached the pinnacle of cultivation, peerless in their era] instantly caused expressions of shock and terror to appear on the faces of the Netherworld Imperial Scion [a prince of the underworld realm] and his companions.

The most terrifying aspect was that Yuan Ancestor had already gained control over the natural grand formation of this Chaos Fire Vein [a primordial vein of chaotic fire energy], transforming it into a Super Slaughter Formation [a formation of immense destructive power].

"The Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path, the Three Heroes of Path Creation."

Seeing his forces surrounded, Netherworld Imperial Scion could no longer contain himself, his face a mask of shock and fury. "You of the Seven Domains Alliance dare to lay siege to us, members of the Sovereign Holy Land?" he roared.

"Heh—"

Azure Frost let out a cold laugh, ignoring the Netherworld Imperial Scion entirely, his gaze instead settling upon Eldrin Chen.

Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod before speaking. "If not for the need to capture you all, I would not have wasted such a significant amount of time."

"So that's how it is."

Witnessing this, Blazing Prison Celestial Venerable revealed a bitter smile. In that moment, he finally understood everything.

Eldrin Chen, who possessed the Treasure-Seeking Rat [a mystical creature adept at locating spiritual treasures], could have headed straight for this Primordial Fire Vein [an ancient source of primordial fire energy]. Yet, he had deliberately wasted a great deal of time on the journey.

The reason for this was to buy time, allowing the forces of the Seven Domains Alliance to arrive here first and set up an ambush, waiting for them to walk right into the trap.

"A masterful move, luring the enemy into the trap."

Nine Nether Abyssal Netherworld Dragon's face turned cold as he could not help but ask, "I am curious, what is your true origin, that you can command the Seven Domains Alliance to act on your behalf?"

"The dead have no need to know so much."

Eldrin Chen waved his sleeve, and Cang Ancestor was the first to stride forth and charge onto the Heavenly Vault, using the Nine Tribulations Sword of the Ancient Ruins formation to entangle and slay the Void Ancient Dragon.

Hong Ancestor, Luo Ancestor, Primordial Beginning Mysterious Maiden, and others also soared into the sky one after another, engaging in fierce duels with the forces of the Three Great Holy Lands.

Yuan Ancestor even activated the primordial Flame Grand Formation, continuously incinerating the Supreme prodigies of the three great powers.

This battle held no suspense whatsoever. With Nyssa Qu and the others joining the fray once more, it was not long before all the peerless prodigies of the three great powers were utterly annihilated in a single engagement.

"Argh! I cannot accept this!"

In his final moments, the Netherworld Imperial Scion wore a look of utter despair. He drove the Netherworld Nether Emperor Sword to tear through the firmament, making a desperate, suicidal charge towards Eldrin Chen, but it was a futile effort, a hopeless attempt to reverse the inevitable.

Eldrin Chen reached out with a single hand and seized the Netherworld Nether Emperor Sword, utterly ignoring its world-rending, peerless sharpness, and forcibly wrested it away.

"The Primordial Limitless Sword is not meant to be wielded thus,"

Eldrin Chen spoke with a voice of utter calm, firmly suppressing the Netherworld Nether Emperor Sword before channeling the Power of Oblivion into the imperial blade, intent on cleaving the Netherworld Imperial Scion in twain then and there.

Then, a cataclysmic tide of Power of Oblivion and Slaughter surged forth, utterly annihilating the Netherworld Imperial Scion's Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] into nothingness.

Thus, the core combat strength of the three great Sovereign-level factions was decimated in a single battle, with the majority of their Half-Step Limitless experts having perished beneath the Flame Grand Formation [a grand defensive array powered by fire] of the Primordial Fire Vein.

Retracting his hand, Eldrin Chen then turned his gaze towards the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path and the Three Heroes of Path Creation [a legendary trio of path pioneers], giving them a calm, acknowledging nod.

The various Supreme [a title denoting the highest level of mastery] figures of the Seven Domains Alliance paid little heed at first, but in the very next instant, their expressions shifted to one of profound shock.

For they saw the mightiest among the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path—Cang, Hong, Luo, and Yuan—suddenly kneel before Eldrin Chen, their voices choked with emotion as they spoke.

"Your unfilial disciples pay homage to our revered Master!"

"This..."

In that moment, everyone present was struck dumb. Even the Primordial Beginning Mysterious Maiden and the other Three Heroes of the Immortal Path [the three legendary heroes who founded the Immortal Path] wore expressions of utter astonishment.

Before they could even gather their wits, they saw Eldrin Chen standing calmly in place, then sweeping his sleeve to help the four Mortal Path disciples rise. "Rise," he said. "These years have not been easy for you either."

"Disciple... disciple..."

Cang Ancestor and the others choked with emotion, tears welling up in their eyes, momentarily unable to restrain themselves.

This left everyone present utterly bewildered. In the eyes of all, the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path had always been the unwavering pillars of the Seven Domains Alliance.

Even though they themselves were Half-Step Limitless cultivators, the four Ancestors they had always beheld were figures of immense gravity, lofty and unapproachable.

To see all four of them now shedding tears was, for a moment, utterly incomprehensible.

How could they know? The seven disciples of the former Nameless had all been raised by him from childhood, nurtured almost as his own flesh and blood.

For a very long time, the seven disciples of Nameless were all direct heirs of Sovereign lineages, and moreover, they were among the very pinnacle of such heirs.

Within the entire Boundless Chaos, there were in truth no more than ten Paramount Sovereign cultivators.

And the former Nameless Path Ancestor, whose cultivation placed him at the very head of those ten great Sovereign within the Chaos, and who wielded the Chaos Supreme Treasure known as the Chaos Cauldron, was the undisputed supreme power within that primordial realm.

As direct disciples of Nameless [the legendary master of the Primordial Chaos Path], they could rightfully be called the heirs of the foremost orthodox tradition within the Chaos [the primordial state before creation], with perhaps only one or two other powers in existence capable of matching their lineage.

Yet, in the moment Nameless Path Ancestor [the founding master of the Nameless Path] fell, they became like dogs without a home, barely clinging to survival only through the covert support of the various Sovereign [beings who have mastered a fundamental law of existence] within the Path-Guarding Faction [a coalition dedicated to preserving the orthodox cultivation paths].

How could they not be overwhelmed with emotion upon seeing their revered master once more?

"The master of the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path [the four legendary founders of the orthodox Immortal Path]... could it be..."

Simultaneously, many others grasped the implication, their faces instantly paling with shock and awe.

Even Nyssa Qu and the others turned their astonished gazes towards Eldrin Chen, their expressions filled with profound reverence.

"It is a long tale..."

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, understanding there was no further need for concealment. He transmitted a concise mental message, briefly recounting their journey.

At the same time, the assembled Supreme [a title denoting one who has reached the pinnacle of a cultivation path] prostrated themselves. Even the three great Supreme—Primordial Beginning Mysterious Maiden and her peers—bowed deeply, saying in unison, "This junior pays respects to Nameless Path Ancestor."

"Rise."

Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod and helped the group to their feet.

Seeing that Eldrin Chen offered no explanation, their faces were instantly alight with unrestrained joy.

It must be understood that the Nameless Path Ancestor was not only a supreme Chaos Sovereign, but also the figure most renowned for nurturing the younger generation and the leading figure of the Path-Guarding Faction.

Now, with his complete recovery, did this not signify that the landscape within the Chaos would undergo a transformation?

And for them, these Half-Step Limitless cultivators, might there not be a sliver of a chance to break through to the Sovereign realm?

At this thought, they exchanged glances, their eyes shimmering with shared hope and excitement.

Noticing their expressions, Eldrin Chen understood their thoughts and finally spoke. "My injuries are not yet fully healed. Restoring my cultivation will require a vast amount of resources."

"Opening the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm this time is a crucial step for my recovery."

"I need your assistance in this endeavor. Do any of you have objections?"

His words, however, gave them pause. One of the Half-Step Limitless cultivators could not help but ask, "Might we... partake of the Primordial Chaos Violet Aura [a supreme-grade chaotic energy vital for high-level cultivation] found within that place?"

Eldrin Chen understood their thoughts. For those at the Half-Step Limitless realm, the most crucial step was to obtain Primordial Chaos Violet Aura [the supreme chaotic energy of creation] to forge their Sovereign Foundation [the ultimate foundation for ascension].

Fortunately, the Primordial Chaos Violet Aura was of no use to Eldrin Chen himself. He thus spoke, "Take the Primordial Chaos Violet Aura for yourselves. How much you ultimately obtain will depend on your own Creation [fate and fortune in the grand design of cultivation]."

"Then we shall spare no effort in assisting the Path Ancestor," they vowed.

The several Half-Step Limitless cultivators present all spoke up, a glimmer of joy and anticipation flashing in their eyes.

In response, Eldrin Chen waved his hand dismissively. He had the others withdraw, then led the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path [the four legendary founders of the orthodox immortal cultivation path] and the Three Heroes of Path Creation [three peerless heroes who pioneered new cultivation methodologies] deep into the Chaos Fire Vein [a primordial spiritual ley line of chaotic fire energy].

They temporarily opened a Path-Field [a sanctified space for cultivation and discourse], after which Eldrin Chen began to tally the spoils of this battle.

The resources seized in this conflict were considerable, but the most precious were four Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [supreme-grade artifacts forged from primordial chaos].

These four treasures were: the Netherworld Nether Emperor Sword, the Blazing Prison Battle Armor, and the Nether Dragon's Sting. Beyond these, there were numerous other valuable Chaos Spiritual Treasure [artifacts imbued with chaotic essence], evidently all discovered by their foes within the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm [a hidden realm of untamed primordial energies].

A cultivator at the half-step Limitless Realm could not even unleash the full power of a single Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure, let alone refine a second one.

As disciples of Nameless [the enigmatic and supreme master], the Four Ancestors of the Immortal Path themselves lacked for no Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure. Therefore, Eldrin Chen presented these four artifacts before the trio: Primordial Beginning Mysterious Maiden [the enigmatic maiden from the dawn of time], the Old Man of Celestial Stele [the ancient guardian spirit of the heavenly monument], and Jade Flute Path Ancestor [the ancestral master of the Jade Flute cultivation lineage].

"Hand over the treasures from within the Primordial Fire Vein to this venerable one. As for these other treasures, you may each choose one. Do any of you have objections?"

The three exchanged glances, naturally having no objections. Finally, the Old Man of Celestial Stele cupped his hands and said, "In that case, we shall not refuse this undeserved kindness."

With that, the three each took one of the three Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure—the Netherworld Nether Emperor Sword, the Blazing Prison Battle Armor, and the Nether Dragon's Sting—and then departed one after another to enter seclusion and refine them.

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen then gave the remaining Void Ancient Sword to Imperial Sovereign Jiang. This Patriarch cultivated the Great Dawn Sword Path, which was an exceptionally good match for the Void Ancient Sword.

As for the other treasures, Eldrin Chen temporarily stored them away, intending to use them later to refine the Limitless Immortal Pill.

After distributing the treasures, Eldrin Chen finally turned his gaze to his four disciples and inquired, "How have you all fared these past years?"

"Master..."

Cang's eyes grew slightly red-rimmed, and he began to recount the events of those years to Eldrin Chen.

Back then, when Nameless attempted his breakthrough into the Sovereign Realm, he had a premonition that his ascension would not go smoothly. Thus, he dismissed all his disciples.

After Nameless fell, his disciples were hunted down. Of his three thousand nominal disciples, some perished and others fled, quickly scattering and going into hiding across the Chaos.

To guard against potential traitors within their own ranks, they rarely communicated with one another.

It was only later, as the methods of the Path-Obstructing Faction grew increasingly ruthless, that the Half-Step Limitless cultivators within the Chaos [the primordial, formless state from which all existence emerged] found themselves with almost no opportunity left to break through to the Sovereign realm.

The fall of a great number of Half-Step Limitless cultivators during their attempts to ascend to Sovereign became a source of growing, unbearable frustration for the Sovereign powerhouses of the Path-Guarding Faction.

Thus, Cang and others reunited, reaching out to some Sovereign cultivators who had been on good terms with Nameless in the past. With their support, they established the Seven Domains Alliance.

From that day until the present, the Seven Domains Alliance has drawn a multitude of powerful experts from across the Chaos, all united in their pursuit of that sliver of a chance to break through to Sovereign.

Having understood the cause and effect of these events, Eldrin Chen could not help but sigh and declare, "The Karma [the cosmic principle of cause and effect governing all actions] sown in those bygone days shall be settled, one by one, by this seat in time."

"By the way, where is Little Tian?"

At these words, the expressions of everyone present shifted slightly.

Cang pondered for a moment before replying with a heavy sigh, "Our Third Junior Brother was captured by 'Myriad Demons Ancestor' and has been imprisoned within the Myriad Demons Abyss. It has been forty thousand Kalpa Tribulation [an immense cosmic cycle spanning billions of years] since then."

"Myriad Demons Ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen's pupils contracted with a flicker of cold light.

The Myriad Demons Ancestor, also known as the Myriad Demons Sovereign, was one of the ten Paramount Sovereign within the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation]. In terms of cultivation base alone, he was not inferior to the Nameless of bygone eras.

He had founded the Demonic Script [a system of cultivation arts derived from monstrous origins], established the Monstrous Path [a major cultivation philosophy and faction], and was one of the titanic pillars supporting the Chaos. He now stood as a leading figure of the Neutral Faction.

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "When I, your master, once roamed the Chaos, the Myriad Demons Ancestor was merely a rising star, his cultivation having just barely entered the Sovereign Realm."

"Now, after who knows how many tens of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] have passed, I never imagined he would become one of the leading figures in this Chaos."

"However, this Karma [the cosmic law of cause and effect, action and consequence]... I shall settle it myself in due time."

Having said his piece, Eldrin Chen withdrew his thoughts. He then rose and proceeded deeper into the Primordial Fire Vein.

As they journeyed into the Fire Vein, they inadvertently discovered a great many Rare Treasure [extremely precious spiritual materials and artifacts].

One had to admit, this Chaos Fire Vein truly held boundless opportunities. Peerless Heavenly Flame [flames of celestial origin, possessing immense power] that were difficult to find in the outside world, and fire-attribute Rare Treasure scarce even within the Chaos, were here almost commonplace.

Eldrin Chen collected a significant number. Unconsciously, he arrived at the heart of the Primordial Fire Vein, within a Flame Immortal Pool [a pool of condensed, immortal-grade flame essence].

"The Primordial Flame Pool [a legendary pool of primordial fire essence]."

Gazing upon the Primordial Flame Pool before them, everyone present revealed looks of profound shock.

Within the Primordial Flame Pool, it was filled with a peerless Limitless Immortal Fire [a supreme-grade immortal flame of boundless potential]. This fire was nearly liquid in form, seeming to possess the divine power to refine and purify all things.

"This flame can be used to refine the Limitless Immortal Pill [a legendary pill said to grant limitless potential], though it requires a grand formation to assist in regulating the fire's power."

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, his tone calm and measured.

Understanding his intent, 'Yuan' [the disciple] at his side immediately bowed and said, "This disciple will later assist the Master in setting up the formation, to once again use it for refining the Limitless Immortal Pill."

Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod, then turned his gaze back into the depths of the Primordial Flame Pool. Within the pool of Immortal Flame [the personification or guardian spirit of the immortal flame], he saw several dozen portions of world-shaking Rare Treasure [extremely rare and precious spiritual materials].

Among them, the most precious were a small crimson furnace, a top-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [a treasure born from primordial chaos], a piece of Primordial Chaos Fire Jade [a jade imbued with the essence of primordial chaos and fire], and a massive fiery egg covered in intricate Dao patterns.

This egg was covered in Phoenix [a mythical fire-bird] patterns, yet not a trace of life force remained within it.

"A Mandate of Heaven Sovereign [a being destined by heaven to rule] nurtured by the Primordial Flame Great Path [the supreme cultivation method of primordial flame]. A pity it perished alongside the Primordial Sovereign [the original sovereign of this realm]."

Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a trace of emotion coloring his expression.

As an existence at the Half-Step Primordial Chaos Foundation level, Nameless was born from the Primordial Chaos Great Path, the Nine Revolutions Path Ancestor was born from the Innate Five Ultimates, and the Primordial Sovereign was born from the Primordial Great Path.

Legend has it that the Primordial Great Path could differentiate into the Five Elements, thus giving birth to five Sovereign-level Primordial Five Elements Sovereign as its companions. This was an unalterable fate of the Chaos Heaven.

Alas, even the Primordial Sovereign has fallen, so these Five Elements Sovereign naturally possess not a shred of vitality.

The Primordial Flame Sovereign before them should have taken form as a Primordial Phoenix. Regrettably, it perished long ago, transforming into a lifeless husk.

"Perhaps, this is the destined opportunity for the Blazing Phoenix."

Eldrin Chen paused thoughtfully before speaking with measured consideration.

Given the Blazing Phoenix's foundation, stepping into the Sovereign Realm would be an arduous task of ten thousand difficulties. Yet, if it were to cultivate within this Sovereign body, absorbing the origin and heavenly mandate of the Flame Sovereign, it might not be impossible to one day tread the Sovereign Realm.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen stored away the Fire Phoenix Egg and then gathered the various Rare Treasure.

Among these treasures, Eldrin Chen valued this piece of Primordial Chaos Fire Jade the most. This object is a peerless Rare Treasure for cultivating divine abilities and could be used in the future to practice the Limitless Divine Ability.

Furthermore, the small crimson furnace, named the Fire Phoenix Furnace [an enchanted artifact shaped like a mythical fire phoenix], is also a Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [a top-tier artifact born from primordial chaos]. It contains the Primordial Flame Great Path [the supreme law governing the original flames of creation], making it several degrees more potent for alchemy than the Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron [a legendary cauldron said to have forged heaven and earth].

Eldrin Chen simply refined the Fire Phoenix Furnace and then had Thalion assist him in rearranging the Chaos Flame Grand Formation [a grand formation harnessing the power of chaotic flames].

With two formation masters at the Limitless [a realm transcending conventional boundaries] level personally setting the array, and with Eldrin Chen possessing the complete memories and insights of a Paramount Sovereign [the supreme ruler of a cultivation realm], establishing a Chaos Grand Formation [a formation of immense, primordial power] anchored to the Earth Vein [a ley line of concentrated terrestrial energy] proceeded as smoothly as water flowing downhill.

In the end, using the Fire Phoenix Furnace as its core, they laid down an Alchemy Grand Formation [a supreme formation for refining elixirs] so profound it seemed to steal the very Creation [the act of bringing something into existence] from heaven and earth itself.

"This formation can increase the success rate of pill refinement by thirty percent," Eldrin mused, "nearly equivalent to having a Limitless Sovereign [a sovereign who has reached the Limitless realm] personally channeling their spiritual power to assist me."

"Coupled with the Fire Phoenix Furnace, which excels at refining high-grade pills, my success rate for crafting the Limitless Immortal Pill [an elixir that grants a glimpse into the boundless Limitless realm] should be no less than fifty percent."

After completing the formation, Eldrin Chen murmured to himself. Yet, he did not immediately begin refining the Limitless Immortal Pill. Instead, he first warmed up his skills by successfully refining nine batches of the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill [a less potent version of the Limitless Immortal Pill].

All nine batches of the Limitless Immortal Pill were refined without a single mishap, and their medicinal potency was noticeably stronger than that of ordinary Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill.

Thus, Eldrin Chen delayed no further. He decisively retrieved the Limitless Flower [a mystical herb symbolizing boundlessness] and the various auxiliary ingredients, and commenced the refinement of the 'Limitless Immortal Pill'.
