Chapter 530 Dorian (Person Name) Impacts the Nascent Soul

He was quite familiar with Magnus the Virtuous Lord, yet he never imagined that Magnus the Virtuous Lord could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the other 2.

Noticing his expression, Freya smiled and said, "Although Magnus the Virtuous Lord is an Earth Path True Lord, his talent is truly extraordinary."

His comprehension was truly extraordinary. It was said that as early as the Nascent Soul, Early Stage (Cultivation Realm), he had already cultivated a great supernatural power to its consummate perfection. Whether he had now deduced and advanced it even further remained unknown.

Moreover, he had once sworn a great vow to reconnect the earth veins of Heaven's Spine Mountains (Location), aiding it in breaking through destruction to achieve rebirth—transforming into a dragon and ascending to the heavens—thereby proving his path to the Realm of Pure Yang.

Eldrin listened quietly, his eyes involuntarily narrowing slightly.

He had cultivated the Dual Polarity Divine Thunder (Cultivation Art) to its pinnacle while still at the Nascent Soul, Early Stage (Cultivation Realm), believing such a feat to be unparalleled in this world. Never had he imagined that another soul of such staggering brilliance could exist.

"1 must never underestimate the heroes of this world."

Eldrin shook his head with a wry smile. Upon reflection, it made perfect sense. Every cultivator who reached the Virtuous Lord realm was a prodigious talent, so it was only natural that exceptional individuals like Magnus the Virtuous Lord would emerge among them.

Of course, he wasn’t underestimating himself either. Having just recently broken through to the True Monarch realm, if he were to remain at the early stage for 1 1000 years, with the boost from Communion of Heaven and Man, he would undoubtedly achieve feats unheard of since ancient times.

After waiting in the great hall for a brief moment, the Grand Elder of the Ji Clan emerged with several Ji Clan True Monarchs.

He cast a glance at the assembly before instructing his attendants to present each guest with a gift. A warm smile graced his lips as he spoke, “The Ji Clan is deeply grateful for your presence and assistance in celebrating our Patriarch’s breakthrough to the Yuanshen (Cultivation Realm).”

"A small token of my esteem."

Eldrin and Lyra also received 2 gifts. With a slight probe of his divine sense, he discovered they were actually 2 Grade-5 Nirvana Pills.

A grand gesture.

His heart trembled faintly—a fifth-stage Nirvana Pill could sufficiently assist a Nascent Soul cultivator in reforging their physical form.

The value of such a treasure is likely equivalent to 30 Heavenly Crystals (Spiritual Object). For the Ji Clan to produce a dozen or so Nirvana Pills (Elixir) in 1 go could be considered remarkably generous.

After presenting the gifts, the Grand Elder of the Ji Clan said with a smile, "We shall entrust the matter of Dao Protection to your esteemed selves."

Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name) received the Nirvana Elixir, her brows and eyes curving into a smile as she spoke: "Worry not, True Monarch. Given our longstanding friendship, this humble 1 shall naturally assist you with my full power."

The Grand Elder of the Ji clan nodded. After explaining the situation to everyone, he instructed attendants to lead them to their quarters for rest.

Eldrin and his companion were not led to their quarters, but rather to the very heart of the Ji Clan's training grounds.

Before a sealed cave abode, Freya (Person Name) halted and said, "To be frank, my father has been in closed-door cultivation for 3 months attempting a breakthrough. He now stands but 1 step away from guiding his Celestial Soul."

"The breakthrough is about to begin. Let us stand guard before this cavern abode."

"This..."

Eldrin's expression shifted slightly. Logically speaking, the optimal time for the Ji Clan Master to guide the Celestial Soul should have been 3 months later.

Unexpectedly, the Patriarch of the Ji Clan defied all expectations, achieving his breakthrough 3 months earlier than everyone had predicted.

Noticing their expressions, Freya spoke up, "Although we're 3 months early and this isn't the optimal time to receive the Celestial Soul, the difficulty only increases by about 10 percent. The difference isn't particularly significant."

"With my father's foundation, even breaking through 3 months early would still carry considerable uncertainty."

"Breaking through ahead of schedule like this, while slightly more challenging, would catch our enemies completely off guard. It's still a worthwhile trade-off."

Hearing this, both of them looked somewhat astonished. Lyra chuckled and said, "First, he spent thousands of years scheming to cripple the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, and now he disrupts the demons' plans by breaking through ahead of schedule. My cousin is truly a shrewd strategist, always full of surprises."

Freya also smiled faintly. Her father Dorian might not possess the most breathtaking natural talent in this realm, but when it came to strategic planning and intricate schemes, he could truly be ranked among the finest of this generation.

He had plotted this breakthrough for thousands of years—how could it be so easily thwarted?

The 3 of them said no more, settling into cross-legged positions outside the secluded cultivation chamber to stand as the final line of defense for Patriarch Ji.

The rear seclusion chamber was enveloped in serene tranquility, yet an imperceptible, majestic aura gradually began to emanate from within.

At first, no 1 noticed anything unusual. It wasn’t until several hours had passed that they finally sensed something was amiss.

An unimaginable pressure spread from the Ji Clan's rear mountains, casting the world into pallor and gloom. Even Golden Core True Monarchs found it difficult to stand under this overwhelming force.

Within a radius of 1 100 1000 miles, all cultivators felt as if the heavens and earth had been drained of light, while an unparalleled despair pressed down upon their hearts.

Then, a brilliant and dazzling radiance illuminated the darkness.

In the vast unknown, the crowd seemed to glimpse an incomparably solitary figure looming over the heavens, radiant as the sun.

"This is..."

Above the Pathless Mountain, 1 Eldrin (Person Name) after another soared into the heavens, their faces revealing traces of awe.

Everyone was speechless. Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name) exclaimed in astonishment, "The great sun crossing the sky—this celestial phenomenon only manifests when 1 breaks through to the Realm of Pure Yang!"

"How could he be so swift? This is hardly the opportune moment."

1 True Lord after another wore expressions of astonishment, while the demons and monsters lurking in the shadows widened their eyes in disbelief.

"How could that be?"

A demonic path true monarch shattered the mountains and rivers, roaring furiously, "This venerable 1 has spent 40-9 years constructing the altar, yet the curse still requires 3 more months to be unleashed."

"He has now broken through to the Nascent Soul realm. Wouldn't all my curse techniques have been in vain?"

A peerless demon emperor was also greatly astonished, his face filled with regret as he said, "I have cultivated the 'Demon God's Star-Plucking Great Divine Art' and plucked 9 primordial stars from the 9 Heavens Above 3 100 years ahead of time, waiting to drop them 3 months from now."

"Now he has actually advanced ahead of schedule. Have I wasted all my efforts for nothing?"

The fiends lurking in the shadows were utterly astonished, finding all the schemes they had prepared for years rendered futile.

Another demon, consumed by resentment, couldn't help but cry out bitterly, "He broke through 3 months ahead of schedule—this wasn't the optimal moment for a breakthrough. Is he not afraid it might lead to failure?"

Many were puzzled, for achieving a breakthrough in the Nascent Soul realm required perfect alignment of celestial timing, geographical advantage, and personal readiness. Sometimes, being even a hair's breadth off could lead to failure in the breakthrough.

The Patriarch of the Ji Clan was not attempting his breakthrough at the optimal moment, but had instead chosen a less favorable opportunity. This decision would most likely lead to his failure.

No matter how the demons and monsters discussed, the breakthrough had already begun.

1 after another, the Demon Lords and Monster Emperors could no longer restrain themselves, charging madly toward the summit of the Void Dao Mountain.

The guardians atop the mountain peak were equally astonished, yet there was no time to dwell on it. True Lord Xuantian, Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name), and even characters like Master Zhuan Chou took action 1 after another, intercepting each and every Demon Emperor True Lord.

The great battle was about to erupt. Eldrin looked up and discovered dozens of human, demon, and monster cultivators locked in fierce combat across the sky.
