Chapter 1530 : A Desperate Gambit in the Void

Realizing the disparity in combat strength between the two sides, Eldrin Chen's brow furrowed slightly with concern.

In this battle, the Demon Race possessed a full five cultivators with the Dual Primordial Unity Foundation [a legendary cultivation art that merges two foundational energies into one], and they held at least four Primordial Unity Immortal Weapons [supreme weapons forged at the peak of the Primordial Unity realm] as their trump cards.

Even if Myriad Spirit Patriarch's combat prowess was peerless throughout the ages, capable of suppressing five Dual Primordial Unity Foundation experts single-handedly, the remaining thirteen Half-Step Celestial Immortals [cultivators on the very threshold of ascending to the Celestial Immortal realm] would not be easy to deal with.

On their own side, they had Eldrin Chen, Glazed Qu, Violet Mystery Path Master, and Blazeflame Divine Spirit—four combatants with Half-Step Celestial Immortal strength. Even counting Life Great Emperor, that made only five in total.

With such limited means, facing thirteen Half-Step Celestial Immortals would likely prove insufficient.

Seeing this, the others also fell into contemplation. Exquisite Jiang could not help but speak up, "What should we do?"

"There is no need to act hastily for now."

After a moment of thought, Eldrin Chen spoke, "Let the Demon Race exhaust themselves by breaking the formation first. The array will drain their magical power [the energy cultivated and wielded by practitioners of the mystical arts]."

"At the critical moment, we will use a Spatial Spiritual Treasure [a magical artifact capable of manipulating space] to shatter their blockade and carve a path for Myriad Spirit Patriarch and the others."

Having said this, Eldrin Chen used the Polarity Void Mirror [a mystical mirror that manipulates the polarity of void energy] to conceal the group within the fabric of the starry void, then proceeded deeper into the Life Star Domain [a region of space imbued with potent life-force energies].

Simultaneously, the great battle within the Ancient Domain of Life grew increasingly fierce.

As the powerful figures of the Demon Race all took action, the grand formation within the Ancient Domain of Life began to be gradually suppressed.

Thus, time flowed on, and in the blink of an eye, several decades passed. The formation of the Ancient Domain of Life ultimately could not hold out, completely sealing off the vast starry expanse.

"Kill—!"

Witnessing the Ancient Domain of Life being breached, the Demon Immortal [powerful demon cultivators who have attained immortality] immediately revealed expressions of wild joy.

It was the Western Metal Patriarch who struck first, soaring into the sky with a Radiant World Heavenly Blade in hand, cleaving directly towards the heart of the Ancient Domain of Life.

This Heavenly Blade was dazzlingly brilliant, a rare Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon [a supreme-grade immortal artifact of legendary power].

"You whelp of the White Tiger Clan, how dare you act so insolently before this old man?"

At that moment, a cold voice rang out from within the Ancient Domain of Life.

An elder soared into view. With a sweep of his sleeve, a vast and heaven-shaking surge of magical power [the cultivated energy wielded by immortals and cultivators] swept through the Six Harmonies [a powerful defensive formation], actually sending even that Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon flying back.

“Myriad Spirit Patriarch [a powerful and ancient patriarch known for his mastery over myriad spirits]!”

The moment they saw the old man, the complexions of everyone present changed abruptly.

Virtuous Phoenix Maiden [a title for a powerful female cultivator associated with the phoenix] narrowed her gaze slightly, then said with a faint smile, “In the presence of the Myriad Spirit Patriarch, how would we dare to act recklessly? Today, the five of us shall join forces and humbly seek instruction from the Patriarch.”

As her words fell, she flicked her sleeve and summoned a violet silk ribbon, which was also a Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon [a supreme-grade immortal weapon of legendary power] that shook the world with its might.

At that moment, the three Dual Primordial Unity Foundation [cultivators who have established a supreme dual foundation at the Primordial Unity realm]—Earthly Sovereign, True Dragon Crown Prince, and Nanxu Demon Venerable—also soared into the sky, joining the assault against the Myriad Spirit Patriarch.

“BOOM—”

In an instant, a world-shaking battle erupted in full force.

Among the five Dual Primordial Unity Foundation besieging the Myriad Spirit Patriarch, all except Nanxu Demon Venerable wielded immensely powerful Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon in their hands.

Yet, the Myriad Spirit Patriarch was even more Extraordinary. As the second-ranked supreme prodigy on the World-Opening Ranking [a legendary ranking of the most powerful cultivators], his combat prowess shook heaven and earth, and he possessed three peerless, epoch-defining treasures.

These three treasures were named the ‘Myriad Spirit Purifying Vase [a legendary vase capable of purifying and commanding myriad spirits]’, the ‘Myriad Laws Wondrous Tree [a miraculous tree embodying the laws of all creation]’, and the ‘Eternity Emptiness [a treasure representing the concept of eternal void]’. Each was a supreme, unparalleled weapon of the Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon grade.

Among the three treasures, the Myriad Spirit Purifying Vase [a legendary vessel capable of storing immense spiritual power] is a unique and supreme treasure. It is said to be capable of storing the magical power [the energy cultivated and wielded by immortals and cultivators] of half a Small Universe [a self-contained, smaller dimensional realm], making it a world-shaking treasure for storing primordial energy.

The depth and potency of Myriad Spirit Patriarch's magical power was already unparalleled beneath the Celestial Immortal [a supreme immortal realm]. With the Myriad Spirit Purifying Vase in hand, his reserves of power could even rival those of some Great Power Figure [a title for a cultivator who has reached the Celestial Immortal Realm] in the Early Celestial Immortal Realm.

Furthermore, the Myriad Spirit Purifying Vase possesses the wondrous ability to amplify the power of divine abilities. Using this treasure to fuel Immortal Treasure [a supreme grade of magical artifact used by immortals] techniques could increase the might of both the technique and the Immortal Treasure itself by thirty percent.

The Myriad Laws Wondrous Tree [a treasure said to embody ten thousand divine laws] is even more profound and unfathomable. It is said to have evolved over ten thousand divine abilities within it; a casual strike unleashes a deluge of millions of techniques, truly earning its title as a supreme and mysterious treasure.

The final treasure, 'Eternity Emptiness' [a treasure whose nature is shrouded in mystery], is exceedingly rare. Rumor has it this artifact is Myriad Spirit Patriarch's ultimate trump card. Yet, over tens of millions of years, no one has been deemed worthy enough to force the Patriarch to unveil this supreme treasure.

Now, facing five world-shaking adversaries, Myriad Spirit Patriarch seemed utterly unperturbed. For the best reading experience, visit audio‑novel.com.

With a mere flick of his sleeve, he drew forth a verdant, emerald-green branch. A single, seemingly casual sweep unleashed tens of thousands of divine techniques and wondrous arts, an endless tide of chains forged from the laws of order that drowned everything in their path.

Even these five pinnacle Half-Step Celestial Immortal [cultivators at the very peak of power just below the Celestial Immortal Realm] found themselves forced into retreat against this onslaught of hundreds of millions of techniques, unexpectedly falling into a disadvantageous position.

The other four, protected by their Primordial Unity Immortal Weapon [a supreme-grade defensive treasure], emerged largely unscathed. However, Nanxu Demon Venerable, lacking such a protective treasure, was instantly struck until his flesh split and bones showed, sent hurtling and bleeding across starry voids spanning who knows how many trillions of Li-lengths.

"The Myriad Laws Wondrous Tree."

"Such formidable power. Is this the might of the one ranked second on the World-Opening Ranking?"

Witnessing the Myriad Spirit Patriarch unleash his divine might, Eldrin Chen could not help but feel a jolt of shock, a flicker of awe coloring his expression.

Each of these five supreme Half-Step Celestial Immortal possessed earth-shaking power. Eldrin Chen estimated that even if he fought with all his strength, he would be fortunate to withstand thirty moves from any one of them.

Yet here was the Myriad Spirit Patriarch, facing five alone. With but his own power, he wielded a single Primordial Unity Rare Treasure to shake the heavens and earth. A single strike had forced even these supreme Half-Step Celestial Immortal onto the defensive. Such prowess was utterly beyond expectation.

"This Myriad Spirit Patriarch... he may have already cultivated three Primordial Unity Foundation,"

"His combat strength, even if not yet equal to a true Celestial Immortal Great Power, should allow him to stand his ground against a Celestial Immortal like the Western Abyss Dragon King."

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, a sliver of relief and joy surfacing between his brows.

He had initially thought the Myriad Spirit Patriarch's strength could hold off perhaps two or three opponents with a Dual Primordial Unity Foundation. He never imagined the Patriarch would not only face five but also subtly gain the upper hand. This allowed him to breathe a little easier.

Meanwhile, the expressions of the five Demon Immortal facing the Myriad Spirit Patriarch were all grave and solemn.

The True Dragon Crown Prince drew a deep breath before speaking, "This Myriad Spirit Patriarch... he truly is a dire threat to the heart of our cause."

"First, slay the Life Great Emperor [the Empress who embodies the primordial force of life and creation], then come to our aid."

Seeing this, the assembled Demon Race Great Emperor [Great Emperors of the Fiend Race] all took action, their killing intent surging towards that supreme powerhouse, the Life Great Emperor.

Clad in a verdant gown, the Life Great Emperor was a peerless beauty among empresses, a vision of transcendent grace. As the combined assault descended upon her, her eyes narrowed slightly, and in that instant, she conjured a barrier that blotted out the heavens and obscured the stars.

Yet, Myriad Spirit Patriarch [the Patriarch who commands the essence of countless spirits] furrowed his brow. This barrier was the Life Empress's Companion Supreme Treasure [a supreme magical treasure that has grown alongside its master since the dawn of their cultivation], named the 'Life Heavenly Barrier' [the Celestial Barrier of Life]. It was the foremost defensive Imperial Weapon [a weapon of imperial grade, wielded by sovereigns] within this Small Universe [a self-contained, lesser cosmos].

However, this treasure was, after all, merely a single World-Opening Supreme Treasure [a supreme treasure of the World-Opening grade, capable of cleaving apart primordial chaos]. It was insufficient to withstand the onslaught of thirteen Half-Step Celestial Immortal [cultivators who have ascended halfway to the realm of Celestial Immortals].

Seeing the situation, Myriad Spirit Patriarch manifested a divine ability to parry the attackers' strikes. With a flick of his sleeve, he brandished the Myriad Laws Wondrous Tree [the Wondrous Tree of Ten Thousand Laws, a treasure embodying cosmic principles].

In a Ksana-time [an infinitesimal unit of time], myriad divine abilities transformed into billions upon trillions of celestial swords that crisscrossed the void. A dazzling tide of sword energy inundated the boundless starry expanse, halting the advance of the Demon Race [the race of Fiends] Half-Step Celestial Immortal.

Having stalled the enemy with a single move, Myriad Spirit Patriarch spoke without delay, "Withdraw now."

Understanding his intent, the Life Empress immediately and wordlessly retreated towards the depths of the void.

Alas, the Demon Race powerhouses had come prepared. They had long since sealed the entire starry region with a Spatial Supreme Treasure [a supreme treasure specializing in spatial manipulation], trapping the Life Great Emperor and making a swift escape impossible.
