Chapter 730. Establishing the Myriad Ruins Continent (Location)

Of course, Celestial Silver held immeasurable value in itself, while Dao Gold was something even immortals treasured like rare jewels, making it exceptionally scarce.

The Violet Realm did not know the methods to refine Celestial Silver and Dao Gold, thus squandering vast quantities of resources.

However, no matter what, once Eldrin erected the Continent-Steadying Stone, as the founder of the continent, they would be blessed by the collective human fortune and sacrificial power of the entire land.

When the time comes, their cultivation speed and fortunate encounters will significantly increase, while their chances of breakthrough will subtly grow by another 2 measures.

At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "Since this is the final Continent-Steadying Stele, I shall personally undertake its forging."

To establish the continent and anchor the human race's fortune energy from dissipating, they forged over a 100 artifacts to suppress the fortune energy this time.

Nowadays, there were quite a few high-level artifact refiners in Ji Province, so Eldrin didn’t need to trouble himself with ordinary artifacts for suppressing fortune. However, when it came to the top-grade Grade-5 Province-Suppressing Stele, no 1 else had the confidence to refine it.

The others had long since prepared the materials, and with Eldrin personally taking charge, crafting the Continent-Steadying Stela required little effort.

Just half a year later, the World-Stele was finally forged to completion.

That day in the Green Lotus Isle, esteemed Dao Lords including Eldrin (Person Name) from across the realm gathered together, each revealing traces of delight on their faces.

Now on the verge of ascending to the Great Continent, Eldrin and the others had widely invited friends to lend their fists in assistance.

It was a pity that many feared the might of the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor (Demon Beast). In the end, only 15 True Monarchs had arrived, among them close friends like Daoist Zixu.

However, to Eldrin's surprise, 2 supreme experts had actually arrived this time.

Among the 2 individuals, 1 was the 9 Rivers Taoist, while the other was Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name).

Elder 9 Rivers was invited by Eldrin (Person Name). 80 years ago, his cultivation had advanced yet again, reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, making him the pillar of strength among the assembled experts.

To everyone’s surprise, Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name) made an unexpected appearance. She had not been invited by Eldrin (Person Name), but had come at the request of Kael (Person Name).

This left everyone stunned, for Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name) had already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. With her foundation as a Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul, she was highly likely to attempt the breakthrough to the Spirit Severing realm in the future.

For a cultivator at this level, confronting the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor (Demon Beast) now would be inviting calamity upon themselves, diminishing their chances of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit realm in the future.

It turned out that Kael had befriended Lilith, Mistress of Desire many years ago while traveling the world, and she had become his cherished confidante.

Had Kael not been abducted by Thanatos the God-Feller back then, perhaps the tale would have unfolded differently.

Now, as the promotion to the Great Province was imminent, Kael seized the opportunity to send a letter to Lilith, Mistress of Desire. To his surprise, she actually came.

Yet upon careful reflection, this was only to be expected. There were already exceedingly few Heavenly Dao Nascent Souls in the world, and such peerless fairies mostly held themselves in the highest esteem, looking down upon ordinary cultivators of the same realm.

Most male cultivators who formed a Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul kept more than 1 concubine, making it rare to find someone like Kael who remained solitary to this day. No wonder Lilith, Mistress of Desire regarded him with such distinctive favor.

In any case, with the assistance of Elder Jiudao and Lilith, Mistress of Desire (Person Name)—both at the Great Perfection stage of Nascent Soul—the group felt their chances of ascending to the Great Continent had significantly increased.

At this thought, Eldrin cupped his hands and declared, “With the assistance of all present this time, we are certain to carve out a new continent. I hereby express my gratitude to everyone once more.”

"There is no need for this."

The others also wore smiles on their faces. The 9-River Daoist stroked his beard and remarked, "Since you, sir, were even capable of slaying the Golden-Winged Great Peng Demon Emperor (Demon Beast), why should you fear the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor (Demon Beast), who is merely at the same Half-Step Primordial Spirit (Cultivation Realm)?"

"Our presence here is merely adding flowers to the brocade."

After exchanging pleasantries, the various True Monarchs fell into contemplation. It was the Voidless Daoist who broke the silence with a light chuckle, "What shall we name this newly emerged continent?"

"We have reached a consensus—let us name it the Myriad Ruins Continent (Location)."

Eldrin gazed at the map before him and remarked with a faint smile,

On the map, the Myriad Ruins Continent (Location) encompassed the Chen Kingdom, Yan Kingdom, Ling Kingdom, as well as the Golden Wing Kingdom where the Golden Wing Peak stood, and the Golden Roc Kingdom home to the Divine Bird Peak.

At its widest point, its territory spanned a staggering 23,000,000 li, while even the narrowest stretch measured 14,000,000 li across—3 times the size of Ji Zhou altogether. It could truly be called an exceptionally vast continent.

These top-tier great continents, compared to minor ones like the Celestial Lake Continent of Master Zixu, are over a dozen times larger in territory.

Once fully developed, it is estimated to be sufficient to cultivate over a dozen fifth-order spirit mountains, nurture countless mortal populations, and provide resources to sustain the cultivation of 70 to 80 True Lords.

A single continent producing 70 or 80 True Monarchs—aside from those few Dao Monarch sacred grounds, such a top-tier continent would undoubtedly rank among the top 3 in the entire Eastern Wastelands (Location).

This was not The Vast Sea (Location). Though The Vast Sea (Location) spanned 8,000,000 li in expanse, the majority of its territory consisted of lake waters. Neither the mortal population nor the number of cultivators could ever exceed a certain upper limit.

This also meant that resources such as the 5 Elements Essence produced in The Vast Sea (Location) had an upper limit, which would ultimately fail to keep pace with Eldrin (Person Name)'s cultivation progress.

Moreover, according to Eldrin's estimation, within the territory of Tianxu Continent, there should be at least 1 or 2 large spirit stone veins concealed. If these could be developed, the results might prove even more astonishing.

Suppressing his inner excitement, Eldrin cupped his hands and announced to the crowd, "We shall ascend to the great continent in 1 month's time."

"Everyone, go and rest. It seems a fierce battle is imminent."

After the meeting concluded, Eldrin did not linger for long. He quietly made his way to the Magnanimous Peak, where he met with Magnus the Virtuous Lord.

Now, after over 2 100 years had passed, Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) had fully recovered from his injuries. Seeing Eldrin (Person Name) approach, he inquired, "How do you feel?"

"With our current strength alone, we already have the confidence to confront the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor (Demon Beast)."

Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) nodded upon hearing this, then glanced at the map again and said, "If you intend to occupy the territory of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, then the northern part of Myriad Ruins Continent (Location) will already border the domain of the Primordial Savage Bull."

"The strength of that Primordial Savage Bull is no trifling matter. Can you withstand it?"

Upon hearing this, Eldrin’s brow twitched slightly. In the northern part of the Myriad Ruins Continent, there were several territories ruled by demon emperors. The others were merely at the early or middle Nascent Soul stage—their strength was hardly worth worrying about.

Only the Primordial Barbaric Bull lineage was also a force not to be underestimated. The Primordial Barbaric Bulls possessed 5 Nascent Soul, Demon Emperor (Cultivation Realm), with the strongest among them having a cultivation base as high as Nascent Soul, 8th Tier (Cultivation Realm).

At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "The 9 Rivers Daoist has also come this time. Let him handle the Primordial Savage Bull Tribe, while the other slightly weaker Demon Emperor territories are of little concern."

"He possesses 9 Heavenly River Immortal Swords, and after breaking through to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm, his spiritual power surged dramatically. He truly no longer fears being surrounded by multiple opponents."

Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) nodded with a faint smile. "In that case, I shall refrain from intervening and seize this opportunity to enter seclusion, striving to break through to the Half-Step Primordial Spirit (Cultivation Realm)."

It turned out that not long before, Eldrin had already reached an agreement with Magnus the Virtuous Lord.

If Eldrin (Person Name) and the others were not confident in blocking the assault of the Green Flood Dragon Demon Emperor (Demon Beast), he would emerge from seclusion to assist them in establishing the continent.

If the Myriad Ruins Continent (Location) held certainty, then Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) would seize the moment when all eyes were drawn to Ji Province to guide his earth soul back to its rightful place.
