Chapter 544 Pure Yang Treasure Gold

The divine ability recorded within that jade slip left Eldrin utterly astonished, for it was a supreme art of pure Yang.

This divine ability was known as '2 Forms Divine Aegis'. It could unleash the opposing forces of water and fire to form a divine barrier. Once activated, it rendered all supernatural powers and spiritual treasures useless, making the practitioner nearly impervious to any form of attack.

Speaking of this Pure Yang divine ability, Qing’s lingering remnant of consciousness remarked with a tinge of emotion, "This 2 Polarities Divine Aura was created by an ancestor of the Chen Clan. It stands as 1 of the foremost defensive divine abilities in all the world."

"I merely mastered its foundational level back then, yet it was enough to withstand 3 strikes from a Primordial Spirit Dao Lord. This very technique became my ultimate means to confront Nero the Bloodweaver."

"I had thought to rely on this divine art to survive the Nascent Soul Tribulation, but in the end..."

A look of profound shock crossed Eldrin's face—this was his first encounter with a Pure Yang divine ability.

This supreme treasure was a truly unparalleled foundation, something that would stir even a Nascent Soul Dao Lord's heart.

If a Half-Step Primordial Spirit (Cultivation Realm) Dao Lord were to master this Pure Yang divine ability, their chances of surviving the Primordial Spirit Thunder Tribulation would increase by at least 30 percent.

Reflecting on the immense value of this Pure Yang divine art, Lyra (Person Name) took a deep breath before turning to the Azure Earth Soul and inquiring, "Dare I ask, Esteemed Senior, what might the third treasure be?"

"Follow me."

Elder Qing led the 2 deep into the earth veins beneath Celestial Vault Isle (Location).

Eldrin followed closely behind, standing before the fractured ley lines of Celestial Vault Isle. His pupils contracted imperceptibly.

At the core of the earth vein before them, a translucent crystalline treasure metal floated in the void, containing strands of pure yang dao patterns and emanating a power akin to ascension.

This power was far too terrifying; even Eldrin felt an overwhelming sense of threat.

He took a deep breath and asked hesitantly, "What is this..."

Heavenly River Treasure Gold.

The Azure Remnant Soul’s words were startling as he continued, “This piece of Celestial River Treasure Gold was originally nurtured by the water veins of The Vast Sea (Location). At the moment of its emergence, its grade had already reached the level of Half-Step Pure Yang Treasure Gold.”

"Back in the day, I journeyed to the Central Province's Ancestral Domain and obtained a wisp of immortal qi, using it to shatter the grade shackles of this artifact, allowing it to continue nurturing and evolving."

"According to my original design, once it gestates to the Sixth Order, it shall be forged into my Lifebound Pure Yang Spiritual Artifact."

Eldrin frowned involuntarily upon hearing Qing's words.

He hesitated for a moment before asking, "What exactly is that immortal essence, that it could elevate a Tier-5 precious metal to Tier-6?"

Immortal Qi is a supreme treasure that can only be refined after a Primordial Spirit Daoist ascends to immortality.

Speaking of the profound mysteries of immortal qi, a gleam lit up in Qing Cannian's eyes as he began to elaborate on its wondrous uses.

It turned out that this immortal energy could not only be used to refine spiritual treasures, but also to advance the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), and could even assist cultivators in forging a Great Luo Nascent Soul.

This treasure is even more precious than the Heavenly Dao Qi (Spiritual Root), an unparalleled rarity beyond the mortal realm. Yet only celestial beings can refine it into immortal energy.

However, that immortal energy was also extremely vital to immortals. If 1 refined too much of it, it would affect their cultivation and foundation.

Although the Violet Realm had once witnessed the ascension of numerous immortals, the passage of time had gradually diminished its essence, leaving behind only the rarest traces of celestial aura.

Qing shook his head once more and continued, "In this world today, the factions that possess immortal aura number no more than the fingers on 1 hand. Without exception, these are all Daoist sanctums that have once produced true immortals."

"Even so, the immortal qi in their possession serves as the foundation of their clan. When I originally sought to obtain immortal qi, I exhausted all the favors our Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) had accumulated in the Central Ancestral Domain."

At this point, Elder Qing said no more. Gazing at the Celestial River Spirit Gold before him, he remarked, "By my calculations, this piece of Celestial River Spirit Gold still requires a 1000 years of nurturing to advance to the sixth rank."

By then, return to claim it. Should you succeed in forging a Natal Pure Yang Immortal Sword, your chances of slaying Nero the Bloodweaver (Person Name) would increase considerably.

The thought of a Pure Sun Treasure Metal on the verge of advancement right before his eyes made Eldrin take a deep breath involuntarily. If he could obtain this treasure metal, he could begin crafting a Pure Sun Immortal Sword to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

The might of a single Lifebound Pure Yang Immortal Sword is truly astonishing. Once fully forged, 1 could roam the world unchallenged—who but the exalted Supreme Dao Lords could possibly restrain such power?

He exchanged a glance with Lyra, then cupped his hands respectfully toward the Verdant Earth Soul and declared, "Since the Ancestor has bestowed upon me these 3 priceless treasures, this junior shall naturally behead Nero the Bloodweaver to settle your ancient karma."

"Then you must devote yourself to your cultivation."

Qing Cannian nodded, then said, "My remnant soul lacks sufficient power. I fear I cannot maintain clarity for more than a brief while."

"I shall soon fall into a deep slumber, entering a state of dazed oblivion. Henceforth, you must not lightly set foot upon Celestial Vault Isle again."

"We understand."

Eldrin cupped his hands in a farewell salute, then took his leave of Elder Qing and departed from Celestial Vault Isle.

Stepping out of Celestial Vault Isle, he glanced back at the island steeped in bloodlust and lingering resentment, letting out an involuntary sigh as he murmured:

"Elder Qing was able to create the Heaven-Seizing Meridian Forging Method and even cultivated the Pure Yang Divine Ability. Yet despite such formidable foundations, he still failed, meeting his demise before attaining the rank of Primordial Spirit Dao Lord."

"Could the breakthrough to the Pure Yang Dao Lord truly be so difficult?"

Lyra grasped his hand and shook her head. "His foundation is considered top-tier even among those at the Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm. Were it not for the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor obstructing his path, his chances of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit would have been at least 70 to 80 percent."

Foundation, Heavenly Tribulation, Mortal Tribulation...

Eldrin murmured, his eyes revealing a grave expression.

With just his Primordial Spirit foundation alone, he had surpassed 90-9 percent of all Nascent Soul cultivators in the world. The sheer terror of the Heavenly Tribulation made even those prodigies at the Half-Step Yang Purification realm pale in dread.

Even with the confidence to survive these 2 tribulations, the Human Tribulation remained far more terrifying. Should 1 provoke a supreme existence like the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor, scarcely a handful in this world could withstand their wrath.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but remark, "Is that Black Dragon Demon Ancestor truly beyond anyone's control?"

Lyra shook her head and said, "Not necessarily. Among our human race, there are also peerless experts whose strength is no less than that of the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor."

"Even setting aside the Central Ancestral Domain and the other major regions, Lin Tianqi (Person Name), the foremost expert of the Eastern Wastelands, would likely not be much weaker than the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor. Not to mention, our human Dao Lords outnumber the demon race by several times."

"However, it is the demonic cultivators and even the extraterrestrial demons that pose the gravest threat. Our human Dao Lords have no desire to engage in mutually destructive conflict with the demon race at this juncture."

Eldrin (Person Name) said nothing more upon hearing this. He took a deep breath and soared toward the water's surface.

The 2 of them flew out of the seabed, and the old clan leader and the others immediately flew over, asking with palpable excitement, "How did it go?"

"This is no place for conversation. Let's return first before we speak further."

Eldrin’s expression darkened slightly. Without another word, he led the group flying toward the Immortal Apricot Isle.

Upon arriving at Immortal Apricot Island, the crowd gathered in the great hall. The old clan leader noticed the unusual expression on Eldrin’s face, and his heart sank. "Was this journey fruitless, or..."
