Chapter 662. Golden Rhino Treasure Ship (Magic Treasure)

At this thought, Daoist Hong spoke up, "I do have 1 or 2 left. However, the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) is exceedingly rare. I wouldn't be willing to trade it for ordinary treasures or even Heavenly Crystals (Spiritual Object)."

"I am well aware of that."

Eldrin nodded and produced a pale purple spirit fruit, saying, "What do you think of this?"

"Is this... the Purple Marrow Divine Fruit?"

Elder Hong's expression shifted slightly as he hastily took the object to examine it carefully.

This Violet Pith Divine Fruit was of extraordinary value, capable of allowing a Nascent Soul True Lord to enter a state of sudden enlightenment.

Once consumed, even a cultivator at the Nascent Soul, Early Stage (Cultivation Realm) could potentially comprehend a great perfection divine ability, thereby refining their innate supernatural power to the realm of great perfection.

Such an object of immeasurable value is exceedingly rare throughout the world, its worth arguably no less than the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object).

This Violet Pith Divine Fruit blooms once every 3 100 years, bears fruit over the next 3 100 years, and finally ripens after another 3 centuries—a full millennium for a single cycle of maturity.

When Eldrin seized the Purple Pith Divine Fruit Tree from the Purple Jade Demon Emperor back then, there were already 6 fruits growing on it. Yet after over 2 100 years had passed, it had only ripened once.

After observing the Violet Marrow Divine Fruit for a moment, Daoist Hong carefully stored it away as if handling a priceless treasure. He then produced a Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) and declared, "Since the Violet Marrow Divine Fruit and the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) are nearly equivalent in value, I shall exchange 1 for 1."

"Agreed."

Eldrin nodded and took the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object).

After completing this transaction, Eldrin felt his grand objective was nearly accomplished. He then journeyed alongside the others toward the 3 Veins Ancient Domain.

They had just returned to Spirit Lake Continent when Chen Changxuan found them and asked with concern, "How did it go?"

"It has been settled."

Eldrin spoke in a light tone as he briefed Chen Changxuan on the situation.

The Old Patriarch nodded slowly after listening, then remarked, "For Huan Tianji to produce a 6-Rank Spirit Talisman, even if it can only be activated once—this is no small favor he’s granted."

"Hmm, once my cultivation advances in the future, I shall find an opportunity to repay this favor." As Eldrin spoke, he added, "Gather the True Monarchs of our clan. We need to discuss the details further."

Within the grand hall of Verdant Chariot Mountain (Location), 7 True Monarchs of the Chen family had gathered.

Apart from Eldrin and his 2 cultivation companions, Chen Silas, the old clan leader, Kael, and Elara—4 True Monarchs in total—had also gathered together once more after so many years apart.

It is worth mentioning that Kael seemed to have encountered remarkable serendipity, actually cultivating to the Nascent Soul, 4th Tier realm in just a few 100 years—clearly touched by no small measure of profound karma.

Seeing that everyone had gathered, Eldrin spoke up, "With the Cataclysm of the Demon Abyss imminent, though we've prepared for years, we must seize every moment to further advance our cultivation."

"I still have 5 Purple Marrow Divine Fruits here, which are of no use to either me or Lyra (Person Name). You should take them for now."

Eldrin spoke as he produced the remaining 5 Purple Marrow Divine Fruits.

With the comprehension of Eldrin (Person Name) and Lyra (Person Name), grasping a Mahayana-level divine ability would not be difficult. Thus, the Violet Marrow Divine Fruit (Heavenly Material) was brought forth to further enhance the combat prowess of the group.

Moreover, the Violet Pith Divine Fruit can only be consumed once every 1000 years. Rather than hoarding it as a hidden asset, it would be better to utilize it promptly to survive the Abyssal Cataclysm.

With the great battle looming, everyone understood the urgency of the situation and did not decline the Violet Marrow Divine Fruit.

The Elder Clan Leader took the Violet Pith Divine Fruit, a faint smile gracing his lips as he spoke, "With this treasure in hand, this old man shall be able to cultivate the Solar True Yang to the Great Perfection realm."

"By then, with the 8 Trigrams Demon-Refining Banner (Magic Treasure) in hand, I'm afraid even an ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to defeat me in under a 100 exchanges."

The others also showed faint delight on their faces. With the assistance of the Violet Marrow Divine Fruit, they were confident in cultivating their innate supernatural abilities to the Mahayana realm, which would greatly enhance their combat prowess.

After all, mastering a Mahayana-level divine ability was almost equivalent to possessing a supreme-grade spiritual treasure. Though 1's magical power might still be somewhat limited, it at least provided some means to contend against even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Amidst the chaos of battle, the line between life and death often hinged on but a few defensive techniques.

After distributing the Violet Marrow Divine Fruits, Eldrin spoke up, "Time is running short. You should quickly consume the Violet Marrow Divine Fruits to comprehend your divine abilities. Lyra and I will handle the family affairs."

"Refining 5 Great Ascension Divine Powers simultaneously." Chen Changxuan hesitated slightly before speaking up, "I'm afraid the family's stock of 5 Elements Essence is already running somewhat low."

"Then let us purchase some." Eldrin sighed before continuing, "The clan still has 4 Green Lotuses remaining. Selling 3 of them should suffice to exchange for the 5 Elements Essence."

"So be it, then."

Kael spoke, "That Green Lotus Seed is an exceedingly rare treasure in this world. Trading it for the 5 Elements Essence is hardly a profitable transaction."

However, the Chen family had no other suitable treasures left. Even the accumulated Heavenly Crystal (Spiritual Object) and several spiritual materials had been used by Eldrin (Person Name) to exchange for medicinal herbs.

With the cataclysm of the Demon Abyss now imminent, there was naturally no time to dwell on such matters.

After hastily overcoming the tribulation, Eldrin began refining elixirs with Lyra. After 2 busy years, they finally succeeded in producing 5 batches of pills.

The 5 batches of alchemical concoctions consisted of 2 batches of Recovery Pill (Spiritual Object), 2 batches of Solar-Returning Blood-Coagulating Elixir, and 1 batch of Demon-Subduing Pill.

From these 5 batches of pills, a total of 13 Recovery Pills (Spiritual Object), 9 Sun-Returning Blood-Coagulating Pills, and 3 Demon-Subduing Pills were successfully refined.

Among them, the Recovery Pill (Spiritual Object) is a low-grade fifth-tier pill capable of restoring 50% of the magic power for a Nascent Soul, Early Stage (Cultivation Realm) cultivator, making it an indispensable asset during magical combat and major battles.

The Eldrin Jade-Condensing Pill is a mid-grade Tier-5 elixir capable of healing moderate injuries for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and can also alleviate severe wounds. If even the Eldrin Jade-Condensing Pill fails to stabilize the injury, the only recourse is to enter the Nirvana Pool to reconstruct 1's physical form.

The final Demon-Subduing Pill could refine demonic energy, suppress injuries inflicted by demonic curses and supernatural powers, and expel demonic cultivation energy from the body—making it a treasure specifically designed to counter demonic cultivators.

With these 5 cauldrons of elixirs as his foundation, Eldrin's preparations for the Abyssal Cataclysm grew substantially more thorough.

The 2 emerged from seclusion and immediately summoned the Chen family’s cultivators to begin refining the Golden Rhino Treasure Ship (Magic Treasure). They aimed to take advantage of the remaining 30-some years to prepare another war treasure ship as a foundation for their clan.

After nearly 20 years of such relentless work, the Golden Rhino Treasure Ship (Magic Treasure) was finally forged to completion.

The offensive capabilities of this Golden Rhino Treasure Ship (Magic Treasure) fell far short of the Crimson Flood Dragon Treasure Ship, yet its defensive prowess surpassed it by no small measure.

The treasure ship was engraved with 3 fifth-tier formations: the 'Golden Light Glazed Unbreakable Aura,' the 'Diamond Starsfall,' and the 'Great Soul Gathering Array.'

Within these formations, the Spirit Gathering Grand Formation served as the treasure ship's power core. Once fully charged, it could sustain the vessel's flight for hundreds of millions of miles or withstand 1 large-scale battle.

The Golden Radiance Indestructible Aegis, on the other hand, was a first-class defensive divine ability. Once activated, it could even withstand continuous assaults from a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

The final technique, 'Diamond Starfall'(Spell), was the sole mystical ability contained within the treasure ship. This divine art could summon 'Indestructible Stars' to plummet from the highest heavens, with force sufficient to shatter mountains and rivers, pulverizing thousands of miles of land into dust.
