Chapter 729 : The Golden Light Evasion Art

The second Divine Ability is the Heaven Trigram Radiance Golden Light Evasion. This evasion art was born from the fusion of the Heaven Trigram Cloud and the Dao patterns upon the feathers of the Great Roc. It is a supremely rare, peerless Escape Technique Divine Ability [a mystical technique focused on extraordinary speed and mobility].

The Heaven Trigram Cloud is the lightest substance between heaven and earth, capable of gathering and dispersing without form. When merged with the golden-winged feathers, it actually made this Divine Ability surpass even the 'Golden-Winged Rainbow Transformation Art' of the Golden-Winged Great Roc in speed by a significant margin.

Eldrin Chen tested it. Once activated, the Heaven Trigram Radiance Golden Light Evasion transforms the user into a streak of hazy golden light, capable of traversing one hundred thousand Li-lengths [one Li-length equals five hundred meters] in the blink of an eye for a short duration.

At such speed, it is likely that even a Primordial Spirit Early Stage Great Power [a title for cultivators who have reached the Primordial Spirit realm] who does not cultivate a Primordial Solar-grade evasion art would struggle to capture him.

Of course, a Primordial Spirit Great Power can tear through space, crossing tens of millions of Li-lengths in a single thought—a feat this Heaven Trigram Golden Wing Slash cannot match.

Furthermore, the Heaven Trigram Radiance Golden Light Evasion consumes a tremendous amount of energy. At Eldrin Chen's current level of cultivation, channeling it at full power would likely drain his spiritual energy in mere dozens of breaths, making it suitable only for life-saving escapes or as a final trump card.

Nevertheless, with this Heaven Trigram Golden Wing Slash, Eldrin Chen's capabilities for pursuit and escape have been elevated to a whole new level.

After testing the might of the Heaven Trigram Golden Wing Slash, Exquisite Jiang said with delight, "To possess two Quasi-Primordial Solar Divine Ability simultaneously... The power of this Heaven Trigram Golden Wing Slash likely ranks among the finest even amongst Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [magical treasures approaching the power of the Primordial Solar realm]. Its value surpasses both the Dual Polarity Treasure Lotus and the Nine Dragon Wheel."

"Indeed."

Eldrin Chen nodded, storing the Heaven Trigram Golden Wing Slash away before turning his gaze to the remaining Impenetrable Mysterious Gold Armor and the Arcane Gold Long Spear. Visit audio . novel . com to enjoy the complete series.

Exquisite Jiang persisted and spoke directly, "The Dual Polarity Treasure Lotus leans more towards defensive arts. Perhaps we should forge a Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure specifically for defending against Immortal Sword attacks."

"This and the Impenetrable Mysterious Gold Armor are both forged from Fifth Rank High-Grade Arcane Gold. Perhaps we can combine them to refine a single Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen nodded thoughtfully. After a moment of contemplation, he suggested, "What about forging the Single Treasure Glazed Armor?"

"You mean...?"

Exquisite Jiang's eyes lit up with pleasant surprise.

Legend tells of a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure within the Immortal Realm [the realm of gods and immortals] that shook the myriad worlds—the 'Seven Treasures Glazed Armor'. It was hailed as one of the Immortal Realm's ten greatest defensive Innate Spiritual Treasure [a treasure born from the primordial chaos of heaven and earth]. Once donned, it was said to render the wearer impervious to any attack below the level of a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal [a supreme immortal who has attained the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit].

Later, an unknown Immortal [a being who has ascended to immortality], inspired by that legendary armor, devised the methods to forge seven types of glazed armor, each corresponding to a color of the rainbow: crimson, orange, yellow, green, azure, blue, and violet. These seven armors are collectively known as the Single Treasure Glazed Armor.

It is said that among the seven, the Crimson-Gold Glazed Armor greatly amplifies a cultivator's Vitality [the foundational life force and physical essence], making it a supreme treasure for those following the path of Fleshly Body Sanctification [the art of refining one's physical body to an indestructible state].

The Orange Gold Armor is famed for repelling all arts, impervious to both Path Principles [the fundamental laws of the Dao] and myriad magical Divine Ability [supernatural powers derived from cultivation]. The Yellow Gold Armor specializes in defense against Immortal Sword and Spiritual Treasure [enchanted artifacts] attacks, reputed to be utterly unbreakable.

The Verdant Gold Armor carries an esoteric power, capable of reflecting curses and resisting the erosion of Inner Demon [demonic thoughts born from within a cultivator's heart]. It specifically counters the sinister Divine Ability and curse techniques of unorthodox paths.

The Azure Gold Armor [a type of enchanted armor] augments one's magical power, the Azure Gold Armor enhances the spirit and soul, while the Violet Gold Armor can even amplify the power of one's Path Principles Path Fruit [the conceptual fruit of a cultivator's understanding of their chosen Dao].

Among the Seven Treasures Glazed Armor [a legendary set of seven glazed armors], if one possesses three of them simultaneously, they can be fused into one, ascending to form a single, higher-grade suit of Glazed Armor.

If one were to obtain all seven, an even more astonishing transformation would occur.

In the past, when Eldrin Chen was at the Golden Core [a major mid-stage cultivation realm] stage, he had successively obtained three suits of Fourth Rank Superior Grade [a high-quality tier of magical treasure] Glazed Armor—the Violet Gold, Crimson Gold, and Azure Gold—and fused them into the Fifth Rank Spiritual Treasure [a powerful enchanted artifact] known as the Three Treasures Glazed Armor.

Now, having acquired a large quantity of Arcane Gold [a mystical metal used in forging], the thought of forging a suit of Glazed Armor once again flickered through Eldrin Chen's mind.

"This Arcane Gold is indeed the finest material for crafting the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor,"

Exquisite Jiang mused, a note of delight evident in her voice.

If they could successfully forge the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor this time, perhaps in the future they could attempt to craft two more. This might even allow them to bypass the stringent requirements for Sixth Rank [the tier corresponding to demigod-level artifacts] immortal-grade metals and directly ascend to create a defensive Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [a treasure of the highest purity and yang nature].

After all, Sixth Rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures [rare, naturally formed spiritual resources of the highest grade] are finite in this world. To expect to obtain multiple such items through mere chance would be nothing short of a fool's dream.

Without further delay, the two set to work, immediately beginning to smelt the Precious Metal [valuable mystical metals] and commence the forging of the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor.

This forging attempt proceeded without major incident. After two years of dedicated effort, they finally succeeded in crafting the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor.

Gazing upon the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor, Eldrin Chen could not contain his joy. "With this Yellow Gold Glazed Armor," he said, "we will finally have a reliable means to contend with those at the Half-Step Primordial Spirit [a cultivator whose power is on the cusp of the Primordial Spirit realm] level."

"Indeed," came the agreement. "Even if we cannot secure victory, it will be more than sufficient to ensure our own safety."

Exquisite Jiang also smiled as she spoke. In the past, without the Azure Abyss Sword, their ability to face a Half-Step Primordial Spirit had been somewhat lacking.

Now, with the addition of two Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [magical treasures whose power approaches that of a true Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure], the combined strength of Eldrin Chen, Summer Reign, and Exquisite would likely be enough to handle a Half-Step Primordial Spirit who lacked a Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [the most powerful class of magical treasure], even without resorting to the Azure Abyss Sword.

Each of the three possessed their own Lotus Throne [a spiritual artifact that stores and replenishes a cultivator's spiritual energy], which meant their reserves of spiritual power would not be a significant weakness. With each wielding one of the Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure, they would be formidable enough to stand against a Half-Step Primordial Spirit. This novel is serialized on audio-novel.com.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen immediately returned to Ji Continent and handed the Yellow Gold Glazed Armor to Verdant Consort for her to refine and bond with.

While Verdant Consort was occupied refining the Quasi-Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure, Eldrin Chen sought out Kael Chen and asked directly, "Elder Brother, how is the progress on forging the artifacts meant to suppress the Fortune [the metaphysical concept of destiny and luck, often represented as a tangible force]?"

"It is nearly complete," Kael Chen replied calmly. "However, one final piece remains—a Fifth Rank High-Grade Continent-Suppressing Stele [a mighty magical stele with the conceptual power to stabilize a continent]. That one requires your personal touch to forge."

As he spoke, Kael Chen handed a ledger to Eldrin Chen.

The so-called Continent-Suppressing Stele is an object indispensable for establishing a new continent, and it is also the artifact that anchors the Fortune [the metaphysical luck and destiny] of that continent.

Within this world, each time the Human Race carves out a new continent, the Fortune of the Mortal Path [the path of mortal cultivation] increases by a subtle thread. Conversely, each time a continent falls, that Fortune diminishes by a thread.

This intangible Fortune Power [the power of destiny and luck] does not arise from mere emptiness; it is gathered through the worship and sacrifices of the Human Race's countless common folk.

The Continent-Suppressing Stele can coalesce a continent's Fortune Power, bestowing its blessing upon the various True Lord [a high cultivation realm] who founded the continent, thereby aiding their cultivation and that of their clans.

Furthermore, according to Eldrin Chen's knowledge, this is because the denizens of the Purple Seal Realm are unaware of the proper methods to utilize Fortune Power.

It is said that within the Immortal Realm, the great Immortal Clan [clans of immortals] can gather the incense-offering Fortune Power and refine it into legendary substances like 'Incense Offering Celestial Silver' [a celestial metal refined from worship] and 'Fortune Path Gold' [gold imbued with destiny].

The value of that Celestial Silver is exceedingly high. For the Ghost Immortal [immortals of the ghostly path] of the Netherworld Underworld Court, it is a supreme treasure for cultivation and a key material for forging certain special Immortal Treasure.

'Incense Offering Celestial Silver' and 'Fortune Path Gold' contain Faith Power [the power of belief] and Fortune Power, having received the blessings and faith of all living beings under heaven. Refining them subtly increases a cultivator's luck.

It is said that if a Path Lord [a master of a cultivation path] refines a single piece of 'Fortune Path Gold', they receive a powerful Fortune blessing, temporarily increasing their chances of achieving Ascendant Immortal [the realm of a true immortal] by twenty percent. This demonstrates the astonishing utility of such an object.

Moreover, when Immortal seek to break through to higher realms, they often refine substances like 'Celestial Silver' and 'Fortune Path Gold' to enhance their own Fortune and serendipity, thereby increasing their chances of a successful breakthrough. Experience the full epic at audio–novel.com.
