Chapter 582 Purple Marrow Divine Fruit Tree
However, this Tribulation Transcendence Flower would require another 5 100 years to fully mature. Eldrin carefully stored it away, intending to transplant it to a fifth-order spirit vein deep within the 100-1000-li expanse of the Great Desolation.
Those 2 Myriad Venom Fruits were rare spiritual herbs meticulously cultivated by the Crimson Serpent Demon Emperor and the Scorpion Demon Emperor. These fruits were considered supreme antidotes, said to be capable of neutralizing all known poisons in the world upon consumption while dramatically enhancing a cultivator's innate resistance to toxic substances.
Eldrin gazed at the Myriad Venom Fruit and couldn't refrain from speaking, "Legends say that in the Southern Domain, there exists a sinister cultivator's spirit known as the 5 Venoms Patriarch, who wields a set of 5 Venoms Immortal-Slaying Swords."
The 5 Venoms Immortal-Slaying Sword was forged from 5 supreme toxic creatures: the 6-Winged Centipede, the Crimsonblood Serpent, the Soul-Devouring Spider, the 100-Venom Scorpion, and the Heaven-Swallowing Toad.
It is said that all 5 immortal swords are Sixth-Level Pure Yang Spirit Treasures, and their combined power is truly unparalleled in this world. Even a Dao Lord at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage would not dare to confront them lightly.
At this point, his eyebrows trembled slightly as he continued, "It is said that aside from immortals, only an antidote pill refined from 5 types of Myriad Venom Fruits(Spiritual Fruit) could potentially neutralize the poison of the 5 Poisons Immortal-Slaying Sword(Magic Treasure)."
5 Venoms Sword of Immortal-Slaying (Magic Treasure)
Lyra’s brow twitched faintly. After a long moment, she nodded and said, “The 5 Poisons God-Slaying Sword reigns supreme across the realm, ranking among the top 3 demonic artifacts in this world. Sooner or later, we may face it ourselves. We must treasure this 10-1000 Poison Fruit with utmost care.”
The 2 of them stored away the 2 Myriad Poison Fruits. Only then did Eldrin speak, "It seems the Crimson Serpent Demon Emperor and the Scorpion Demon Emperor's true forms are none other than the legendary Crimson Blood Serpent and the 100 Venoms Scorpion."
"We must inform Kael and the others—these 2 Demon Emperors are not to be underestimated."
Lyra also revealed a grave expression, swiftly dispatching a messenger talisman to relay the information back.
Both the Crimson Serpent and the 100 Venoms Scorpion were among the deadliest poisons in the world. Even a Nascent Soul Dao Lord wouldn't dare carelessly touch them, so extreme caution was still required.
After sending the message back, Eldrin felt a slight relaxation in his mind and said, "Both the Crimson Serpent Soul-Slaying Sword and the Scorpio Soul-Reaping Sword possess extraordinary power. Should we ever have the chance to slay these 2 Demon Emperors in the future, we must not let such opportunities slip away."
Without another word, the 2 continued their flight toward Purple Jade Island, arriving at its outskirts merely 3 days later.
After observing for a moment, Eldrin (Person Name) let out a sigh of relief and said, "This Purple Jade Island's formation is only lower-tier fifth-grade, but with the formation's enhancement, it can still withstand a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator."
"Fortunately, there is currently no Nascent Soul Realm demon emperor presiding over the island. The demon kings present cannot unleash the formation's full power. If we join forces at full strength, we should be able to breach it."
"Then let us begin at once."
Lyra declared, immediately summoning the Heaven-Void Immortal-Slaying Sword, the 6 Directions Cauldron of Boundless Realms, the Second Nascent Soul, and the Ji Earth Primordial Disk to suppress the target.
The island's formation was extraordinarily powerful. If an Eldrin (Cultivator Level) expert were to guard it, it should theoretically withstand even a late-stage Eldrin (Cultivator Level) expert until the spiritual energy is depleted.
Unfortunately, without a Demon Emperor to hold the formation now, it was immediately struck by Lyra (Person Name) until its radiance flickered wildly and its power diminished significantly.
"Clang—"
In that instant, Eldrin also made his move. The Heaven-Sundering Twin Swords soared into the sky behind him, merging into a single, resplendent Sword Aura that descended from the heavens with the force of a full-powered strike from a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
The island's Demon Emperor was caught completely off guard. The Demon King presiding over the formation had barely begun gathering his true energy when overwhelming waves of backlash instantly crashed down upon him. To everyone's shock, he immediately began bleeding from all 7 orifices and perished on the spot.
Boom—
With a thunderous explosion, the formation above Purple Jade Lake (Location) shattered, sending an ancient black-and-gold cauldron hurtling through the air.
Eldrin swept up the Black Gold Ancient Cauldron with a scoff. "The demon race's cultivation arts are far too primitive. To guard a mere mid-grade spirit treasure with no less than a fifth-tier, lower-grade mountain protection array—such a waste of divine artifacts."
"Though you fiends possess extraordinary physiques, you fail to comprehend the Heavenly Dao. How could you ever compare to our human race, born with the Dao-aligned form—the most ideal vessel for enlightenment?"
Lyra brandished her sword, cutting down the demonic tribes upon Amethyst Isle, yet she couldn't help but cast a glance at the obsidian-gold ancient cauldron held firmly in Eldrin's grasp.
This cauldron is named the Flood Dragon Black Gold Cauldron, forged from flood dragon scales and fifth-grade precious metal. It serves as a dual-purpose demon-refining treasure, capable of both offense and defense.
It is said that this treasure was once an ancient artifact of the Chen Clan from The Vast Sea (Location), forged when the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) slew a black flood dragon demon emperor.
Legend has it that the Demon Emperor is a direct descendant of the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor, and the downfall of the Chen Clan is also connected to this, though it remains unknown whether this holds any truth.
After the fall of the Chen Clan, countless treasures fell into the hands of demons and monsters. The Obsidian Flood Dragon Cauldron (Magic Treasure) was obtained by the Purple Jade Demon Emperor (Demon Beast). Now that it has returned to Eldrin (Person Name), it can truly be said to have been restored to its rightful owner.
收了蛟龙黑金鼎,Eldrin (Person Name)连忙开始搜刮宝物,很快就将紫玉岛搜的七七八八。
The treasures found on Amethyst Isle far surpassed those of Serpent Scorpion Isle. After a thorough inventory, the 2 discovered they had actually obtained 2 5 Meridians Spirit Jades, 1 fifth-rank precious metal, 5 fifth-rank spiritual herbs, and 2 strands of Earth Mother Qi (Spiritual Root).
Among those 5 Grade 5 spirit herbs, 2 were Tribulation Transcendence Flowers. 1 of them had already reached maturity, while the other would require another 3 100 years before it could be used.
Storing away these treasures, Eldrin chuckled, "Bleeding and battling on the frontlines pales in comparison to the spoils of a single ambush. I reckon when Purple Jade Demon Emperor learns of this, he'll cough up blood in fury."
Lyra gave an ambiguous smile and tugged at Eldrin’s sleeve. “Come with me. I think I’ve found something interesting.”
"Oh?"
Eldrin’s brow twitched slightly as he followed her to the back mountain, into a forbidden realm shrouded in mist.
Passing through layers of mist, Eldrin finally beheld the scene within. Deep within the undulating fog stood an ancient purple tree, radiating blazing divine luminescence.
The ancient tree was entirely translucent purple, shimmering with a violet radiance, and bore clusters of peculiar divine fruits in the same ethereal hue.
Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), Violet Marrow Divine Fruit Tree.
Eldrin exclaimed, instantly recognizing the origin of the fruit tree before him at first glance.
The Violet Marrow Divine Fruit Tree was an exceedingly rare treasure. This tree bloomed once every 3 100 years, bore fruit over the next 3 centuries, and required another 3 100 years for its fruits to fully ripen.
Upon reaching maturity, the rare Purple Pith Divine Fruit emerges. Consuming this fruit can significantly enhance a cultivator's comprehension, aiding them in entering a state of sudden enlightenment.
However, the Violet Pith Divine Fruit also has its limitations. A Nascent Soul True Lord can only consume it once every 1000 years, and taking more would yield little additional benefit.
Moreover, the Violet Pith Divine Tree bore fruit only once every 1000 years, and this particular mid-grade fifth-tier tree before them could only produce 6 Violet Pith Divine Fruits at a time.
Even so, this Violet Pith Divine Fruit was enough to stir covetousness among all cultivators under heaven, for opportunities for enlightenment were exceedingly rare. Many Eldrin (Person Name) True Monarchs who had lived for thousands of years often experienced only 1 or 2 such epiphanies in their entire lifetimes.
Every moment of enlightenment is a tremendous gain for a Nascent Soul cultivator. Each additional epiphany signifies that the Nascent Soul Lord's power will grow severalfold.
With this Purple Pith Divine Fruit Tree, the cultivators of the Chen Clan would grow even more formidable in the days to come.
