Chapter 770 : A Pill Stolen, A Clan Scorned

After all, the Fang Immortal Clan had been passed down for tens of thousands of years. The relationships between its clansmen had grown extremely distant, let alone a branch family that had split off for thousands of years.

Originally, the internal factions of the Fang Clan had been fiercely competing, faces flushed with contention, over the Primordial Spirit Pill [a legendary pill that can help a cultivator form their Primordial Spirit]. Yet, he had given it to the Clan Patriarch of a branch family.

Had he succeeded, it would have been one thing; no one would dare criticize a Primordial Spirit Path Lord [a powerful cultivator who has mastered their Primordial Spirit and established their own Path].

But now, not only had Mystery Heir Fang failed, he had been slain and his Precious Pill [a term for an extremely valuable cultivation pill] taken. This left many Infant Soul Great Power [powerful cultivators at the Infant Soul stage] within the Fang Clan deeply resentful.

Primal Radiance Path Lord was well aware of their sentiments. However, within the Fang Clan, the only one whose opinion truly mattered to him was the Fang Clan Patriarch; the rest were of little concern.

Therefore, for the Primal Radiance Path Lord, the immediate priority was to reclaim the Primordial Spirit Pill. Otherwise, he feared he would lose the trust of the Fang Clan Patriarch in the future.

Though he wished to retrieve the pill, he first needed to ascertain the strength of the perpetrator. After all, Mystery Heir Fang's prowess was undeniable; whoever could slay him was likely at least a Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator, representing a high level of power] level figure.

With this thought, the Primal Radiance Path Lord fixed a cool gaze upon the man before him, silently awaiting his reply.

The leader of the group paled slightly. He could only hand a spiritual talisman to the Primal Radiance Path Lord and said with grave solemnity, "This is a message transmitted from the Three Veins Ancient Domain by the Sixth Elder."

"Eldrin the Path Master and Featherflight Path Lord?" Continue reading this story at www . audio-novel.com.

Primal Radiance Path Lord's expression shifted slightly, his gaze turning icy cold after a long moment. "A few cultivators at the Infant Soul Late Stage, thinking they can dominate just because they possess a few Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasures?"

"And now they want to rope in a Pseudo-Primordial Spirit [a cultivator who has reached the threshold of the Primordial Spirit realm but lacks the complete foundation] to form an Immortal Alliance? What a colossal joke. Do they truly believe they are the reincarnation of Imperial Sovereign Jiang?"

Killing intent flashed in Primal Radiance Path Lord's eyes. He rose and strode towards a secluded cave abode.

Within the cave abode, a man of unparalleled, handsome features sat in silent meditation, rhythmically inhaling and exhaling streams of vital essence [the refined spiritual energy that cultivators circulate].

This was none other than the Clan Patriarch of the Fang Immortal Clan, the mighty Rising Sun Path Lord whose name shook the world.

Primal Radiance Path Lord did not dare show any disrespect. He promptly clasped his hands in salute. "I pay my respects, Elder Brother."

Rising Sun Path Lord did not reply immediately. Only after a long pause did he conclude his cultivation cycle and turn his gaze upon Primal Radiance Path Lord, his eyes calm and detached. "Have you ascertained the details?"

"The situation is clear."

Primal Radiance Path Lord handed over the Communication Talisman [a magical device for long-distance messaging]. A cold sneer curled his lips. "That That upstart Eldrin is not entirely foolish. Seeing his own strength is insufficient, he has allied with the newly ascended Pseudo-Primordial Spirit from the Eastern Barrens to oppose us."

"But the might of a true Primordial Spirit Path Lord [a master who has fully solidified their Primordial Spirit foundation]—how can a mere Pseudo-Primordial Spirit who has not forged a true Primordial Spirit Art body [a spiritual body refined through a supreme cultivation method] hope to compare? This old man alone is confident I can cut them down."

Seeing Primal Radiance Path Lord brimming with confidence, Rising Sun Path Lord shook his head and said, "This Eldrin the Path Master has the backing of the Ji Clan, and he is also a Primordial Spirit Seed [a cultivator with the potential to form a Primordial Spirit] from the Eastern Region Great Wasteland. The few powerful figures in the Eastern Barrens will not allow you to kill them."

"Are we just supposed to swallow this insult?" Primal Radiance Path Lord's expression shifted slightly, and he couldn't help but continue, "That Primordial Spirit Pill [a supreme elixir that aids in forming the Primordial Spirit] was not easily obtained. If we don't take it back, how will our Fang Clan save face?"

As he spoke, Primal Radiance Path Lord, seeing that Rising Sun Path Lord remained unmoved, grew somewhat anxious.

However, in the blink of an eye, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he spoke again, "From what I know, that Chen Clan possesses four Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [powerful artifacts refined with the essence of the primordial sun]. One of them is that very Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword."

"If we use the Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword as our pretext, coupled with the Karma [the metaphysical cause and effect of actions] from the Primordial Spirit Pill, the powerful figures in the Eastern Barrens will have no grounds to intervene."

Hearing this, Rising Sun Path Lord was finally swayed. What moved him was not the pretext of the Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword, but the four Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure in the hands of Eldrin Chen and his companions.

One must understand that after more than ten thousand years of the Fang Clan's rise, they only possessed five Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure. Setting aside the Formation Artifact [a treasure that serves as the core of a formation] powering their clan's Mountain Protection Formation, they truly had only four such treasures at their disposal.

He, Rising Sun Path Lord, had attained the Path at five thousand six hundred years of age. After attaining the Path, he spent over three thousand years cultivating to the Primordial Spirit 3rd Tier.

Thereafter, he remained stuck at the Primordial Spirit 3rd Tier for more than four thousand years before finally breaking through the bottleneck to reach the Primordial Spirit 4th Tier. Now, he was already over fourteen thousand years old.

The reason he appeared youthful was that a few years prior, he had paid a tremendous price to purchase a Nirvana Immortal Apricot [a miraculous fruit said to grant youth and vitality] from the Lin Clan of the Eastern Barrens.

At his current level of cultivation, he increasingly felt the slowness of his progress, urgently needing precious resources to accelerate his cultivation.

However, Primordial Spirit-grade Spiritual Object [rare spiritual materials] were already exceedingly scarce; any single one could command a sky-high price he could not afford.

A 'Primordial Solar Great Void Pill' [a supreme elixir] that aids in breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Mid Stage could be sold for the price of a single Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [a top-tier enchanted artifact].

As for Precious Pill [elixirs of legendary rarity] that assist in breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Late Stage, none existed within the Purple Seal Realm. One could only rely on the Primordial Spirit Path Lord [a master of the Primordial Spirit stage] arduously cultivating bit by bit; success in the breakthrough depended entirely on innate talent, accumulated foundation, and sheer fortune.

This was primarily due to the cataclysmic changes brought by the Demonic Abyss Cataclysm, coupled with the fact that over tens of thousands of years, many Sixth Rank Ancestral Vein [supreme spiritual veins] and Worldly Spiritual Root [heaven-defying spiritual roots] had been Oblivion [obliterated/consumed] by the Fiend Race [the demonic race], leading to the extinction of many Sixth Rank Spiritual Object [sixth-rank spiritual materials] required for those ancient pill formulas.

For Rising Sun Path Lord, obtaining these four Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure meant he could later trade them for treasures to accelerate his cultivation, allowing him to reach the Primordial Spirit Late Stage sooner. This chapter is provided by audio—novel.com. Support the original.

His final opportunity for life extension had been exhausted. If he could not cultivate to the Primordial Spirit 6th Tier swiftly, his hope of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Late Stage would become exceedingly slim.

Yet, once he broke through to the Primordial Spirit Late Stage, he would become a peerless powerhouse among the foremost ranks of the Purple Seal Realm. At that point, he might advance even further, perhaps even aspire to attain the Purple Seal Divine Fruit [a mythical fruit] for Ethereal Ascension [transcending to a higher state of being].

Although many Demigod Patriarch [patriarchs at the Demigod stage] stood ahead of him, making his hope still incredibly faint, a sliver of possibility remained.

With this thought, Rising Sun Path Lord's eyes flickered. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Aren't they planning to establish an Immortal Alliance [a coalition of immortals]?"

"Then we shall strike them down decisively at their Immortal Alliance assembly."

"..."

Within the Three Veins Ancient Domain, the Featherflight Pavilion was exceptionally bustling.

The establishment of the Immortal Alliance by a Primordial Spirit Path Lord [a supreme cultivator whose spirit has transcended mortality] was a momentous event for the entire Eastern Region Great Wasteland, and of paramount importance to the various Infant Soul Immortal Clan [powerful clans led by cultivators at the Infant Soul stage] within the Three Veins Ancient Domain.

Once successfully founded, the Immortal Alliance would be supported by these clans. In return, the Alliance would purge the Forbidden Land [dangerous, demon-infested regions] held by Demonic Cultivator [cultivators who use malevolent, often sacrificial methods] from the ancient domain, safeguarding the flourishing of hundreds of continents and their countless billions of the Human Race.

Furthermore, the various Infant Soul True Lord [powerful lords at the Infant Soul stage] would become members of the Immortal Alliance. Henceforth, the Alliance would mediate any conflicts between them and offer protection should they face attacks from demons or fiendish beasts.

It could be said this was a cause for universal celebration. With the formation of the Immortal Alliance, the disparate forces of the entire Three Veins Ancient Domain would be united into an immensely powerful coalition.

And the Primordial Spirit Path Lord who would serve as the Sovereign [the supreme ruler] of the Immortal Alliance would, in turn, receive a measure of tribute.

At this moment, the Featherflight Pavilion hosted a grand spectacle unseen in the Three Veins Ancient Domain for millennia.

Gathered here were more than eight hundred Infant Soul True Lord alone, alongside numerous other True Lord from other regions of the Eastern Region Great Wasteland who had come specifically to witness this ceremony.

Within the Great Hall [the main assembly hall of a cultivation sect or clan], Eldrin Chen, the Master of Featherflight Pavilion [the leader of the Featherflight Pavilion organization], and the Sea-Calmer Path Lord [a title for a powerful cultivator who has mastered the Sea-Calmer Path] sat facing one another.

Eldrin Chen examined a list in his hand before passing it to the two Mortal Path [a specific cultivation technique or school of thought] cultivators. "This is the preliminary list of nine candidates for the position of Sword-Holding Elder [a high-ranking elder position responsible for overseeing the sect's swords and sword arts]. Let us review it together." Find this and other novels at *audio-novel.com*.
