Chapter 832 : Forging the Five Abyssal Essences

Even if the Demonic Fiend Qi [a malevolent energy that corrodes bone and spirit] gnawed at his marrow, or the Celestial Fire [a divine flame of heavenly origin] seared his flesh, all would be ground to nothingness by his Primordial Chaos Mana [the primordial, formless energy from which all things are derived], leaving no trace of any stubborn, foreign energy to fester within.

"With the Five Elements Primordial Chaos Magic Power [a supreme cultivation art harmonizing the five foundational elements with primordial chaos] as my foundation, perhaps I have truly reached the ultimate limit attainable within this realm."

"Now, it is time to perfect it completely."

Eldrin Chen murmured to himself and set about perfecting that final Lifebound Divine Ability [a divine ability intrinsically linked to a cultivator's life force and cultivation path].

This ultimate Lifebound Divine Ability was astonishing. Eldrin Chen had spent over a thousand years in its derivation, pouring more than half his focus into this single Divine Ability [a supernatural power or technique cultivated by immortals]. It was the crystallization of his one thousand eight hundred years of arduous cultivation.

Now, as the Five Elements Arcane Power [the esoteric power derived from mastering the five elements] reached its perfected state, the countless millions of Dao Patterns [the fundamental patterns and principles that constitute the Dao, the cosmic order] within his body erupted with resplendent light. They fused into one dim luminescent source after another, ultimately coalescing into five indistinct, hazy forms of Divine Ability.

"Separated Flame, Water-Flood Divine Thunder, Metallic Essence, Earth-Fortress, Wood-First Divine Thunder..."

"These are the Five Abyssal Essences [the five supreme divine abilities, each embodying the deepest essence of an elemental abyss]."

Eldrin Chen gazed upon the five luminous spheres within him, a brilliant light flashing deep within his eyes.

He continuously drew forth and devoured vast quantities of Five Elements Qi [the spiritual energy of the five foundational elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth], igniting each of the five luminous spheres one by one. He fused them together piece by piece, forging them into five radiant, perfected Divine Ability. This content originates from audio-novel-dot-com. Please respect copyright.

They were respectively the 'Abyssal Separated Fire Essence', the 'Abyssal Ren Water Essence', the 'Abyssal Geng Metal Essence', the 'Abyssal Wu Earth Essence', and finally the 'Abyssal Jia Wood Essence'—five distinct Divine Ability [profound supernatural techniques].

These Five Abyssal Essences had been refined and perfected by Eldrin Chen over many long years. From the moment of their creation, they had already ascended to the realm of Great Divine Ability [a pinnacle-grade supernatural technique], their power far surpassing the imagination of ordinary folk.

As the five Divine Ability were successfully cultivated, they began to intertwine and rotate around one another, forming a wondrous Five Elements Grand Cycle [a grand, self-sustaining circulation of the five elemental forces].

An immeasurable span of time seemed to pass before the five Divine Ability finally fused into one, transforming into a single Divine Ability that shimmered with a light of primordial chaos.

"The Five Elements return to Primordial Chaos; the Five Breaths converge into the Eldrin, the Abyss."

"As a Supreme Pure Yang Divine Ability [a supreme-grade technique of pure Yang essence], it shall be named the 'Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence'."

After creating this Supreme Great Divine Ability [a supreme-grade Great Divine Ability], Eldrin Chen named his fourth Lifebound Divine Ability [a supernatural technique intrinsically bound to one's life force] and then merged it into his Nascent Soul [the spiritual embryo formed at a high stage of cultivation]. He allowed his Innate Great Luo Nascent Soul [an innate Nascent Soul of the supreme Great Luo grade] to nourish and refine this new Divine Ability in turn.

Once the 'Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence' had fully integrated, Eldrin Chen sensed its presence within him and gave a slight, imperceptible nod of satisfaction.

As the creator of the 'Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence', Eldrin Chen naturally understood the profound mysteries contained within this Divine Ability.

Although this Divine Ability was named the 'Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence', it could be unleashed through two distinct methods of activation.

The first is Condensing Qi into Aegis. This Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence can transform into the 'Great Five Elements Primordial True Aegis'. Once unfurled, it becomes a supreme defensive Pure Yang Divine Ability [a divine ability powered by pure, untainted Yang energy].

This Divine Ability was created by Eldrin Chen after analyzing the Twofold Divine Aegis, building upon the foundation of Five Elements Primordial Chaos Qi [the primordial energy of the five elements]. Its defensive power surpasses and excels its predecessor, far exceeding the Twofold Divine Aegis created by the senior Dao Lord [a title for a supreme master of the Dao].

Moreover, this 'Great Five Elements Primordial True Aegis' fears neither water nor fire, neither blade nor spear, and is impervious to the defilement of blood or Demonic Fiend Qi [the corrupt, malevolent energy of demons and fiends].

Its nature is one of Primordial Unity. Even 'Divine Needle'-type Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure [enchanted artifacts specifically designed to pierce defenses], which specialize in countering Defensive Divine Ability, cannot exploit its weak points to overcome it through their usual method of concentrating force on a single spot.

The second application is the 'Five Elements Abyssal Primordial Essence''s alternate method of activation. When employed, it can manifest the 'Great Five Elements Primordial Grasping Hand'.

This 'Great Five Elements Primordial Grasping Hand' is a Divine Ability of the grappling and seizing variety. It can capture and suppress Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure and all manner of formidable foes. Even a Nascent Soul Demon Progenitor [a progenitor-level demonic beast at the Nascent Soul realm] who specializes in physical body cultivation would likely find it impossible to break free once seized.

If the day ever comes when Eldrin Chen possesses sufficient cultivation, wielding this Divine Ability to pluck stars from the sky or seize the moon would be a trivial feat. It can truly be said to be a first-rate protective Divine Ability for safeguarding one's path.

"A single Divine Ability, yet two profound applications."

"My cultivation within the Nascent Soul Realm has now reached a state of perfect completion and accumulation."

Eldrin Chen murmured to himself. He then realized that his injuries had long since been completely healed, nourished unknowingly by his Life Magical Power [a divine ability that harnesses the power of life essence]. Thus, he emerged from the Seclusion Chamber.

After emerging from the Seclusion Chamber, Eldrin Chen noticed that only Lila stood guard before the chamber doors. A flicker of concern passed through his eyes.

"Where are Lyra and Verdant Consort?"

"Husband!"

Seeing him emerge from seclusion, his wounds healed, Lila's face lit up with joy and relief.

She rushed into Eldrin Chen's embrace before composing herself, her expression turning urgent. "Not long ago, the Demonic Abyss Cataclysm erupted. Sister Lyra went to the edge of the Demonic Abyss to avenge you, determined to slay the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon."

"Sister Verdant Consort, fearing for her safety, left me here to guard your seclusion and followed after her." Continue your cultivation journey at audi0-n0vel.c0m.

"The Demonic Abyss Cataclysm?"

Eldrin Chen's expression shifted dramatically. "How many years have I been in seclusion?" he asked urgently.

"Approximately ten years."

Lila took a deep breath, her face grave. "This Demonic Abyss Cataclysm has erupted two decades earlier than predicted. I fear it has caught us unprepared."

"Enough. Since Lyra and the others have already departed, I cannot stand idly by in this battle."

Eldrin Chen shook his head and immediately soared into the heavens, heading towards the Eastern Sea Cultivation World [the primary region for cultivation sects and clans in the Eastern Sea].

Seeing him charge towards the Eastern Sea Cultivation World, Lila immediately followed: "Husband, wait for me."

In the Eastern Sea Cultivation World, before the myriad islands of the Star Palace Archipelago [a vast island chain ruled by the Star Palace Sect], a battle of unprecedented scale had already erupted.

The Extraterrestrial Demon God [demonic entities from beyond this realm] had struck twenty years early. Without waiting for the Laws of the Dao [the fundamental cosmic principles governing reality] within the Purple Realm [a higher spiritual plane] to reach their weakest point, it had paid an immense price to tear open the Heavenly Scar [a catastrophic rift in the fabric of reality].

Led by those Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon [powerful demon commanders from beyond], thousands upon thousands of roaring Demonic Ship [warships powered by demonic energy] came screaming forth, clashing with the forces of the Human Race entrenched within the inner archipelago.

This battle was far more brutal than those of previous years. Among the Extraterrestrial Demon God, nearly two hundred Half-Step Primordial Spirit [cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, half a step into the Primordial Spirit realm] had been mobilized alone, with the remaining hordes of Demonic Monsters [lesser demonic beasts] being almost countless.

The Human Race had also thrown its full strength into this fight. Although the various Demigod Ancestor [cultivators of the Demi-Immortal realm] had not yet taken action, over eighty Nascent Soul Great Power [mighty cultivators at the Nascent Soul realm] were stationed upon the islands of the Star Palace Archipelago, using powerful Formation [magical defensive arrays] to resist the onslaught of the Extraterrestrial Demon God.

Not only was the Human Race involved in this manner; even the Demonic Tribe [alliance of demonic races] had sent several Nascent Soul Demon Progenitor [ancient demon beasts at the Nascent Soul realm]. Even pillars of their forces like the Black Dragon Demon Progenitor and Peng the Roc Demon Sage were watching intently from the shadows.

Vaguely, amidst the shadows, several Demonic Cultivation Ancient Ancestors [ancient masters who practice demonic cultivation arts] were also observing covertly, their expressions etched with grave solemnity.

Those capable of cultivating to the Primordial Spirit Realm [the spiritual core of a cultivator, a high stage of cultivation] are naturally no fools. Though they have not yet joined the fray, they understand the principle that when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold [a Chinese idiom meaning that when one part is lost, the rest is endangered]. When the truly critical moment arrives.

Lower-ranked cultivators might be excused, for when the heavens fall, the taller ones will hold them up [a Chinese idiom meaning those in higher positions bear the greater responsibility].

But beings of their realm, who are addressed as lords and revered as ancestors, would naturally be unwilling to see the Purple Realm [a major realm in the cultivation world] fall into the hands of the Extraterrestrial Demon God [powerful demonic entities from beyond this world].

After all, once this realm is breached by the Extraterrestrial Demon God, those invaders care not whether you are human or demon.

Even among the many native Primordial Spirit Demonic Cultivator [cultivators who follow demonic or unorthodox paths] of the Purple Realm, unless they truly have no hope of advancing further, they too would be reluctant to pledge allegiance to the Extraterrestrial Demon God, surrendering control over their very life and death to those alien fiends.

It is precisely for this reason that the Human Race of the Purple Realm has not pursued these Primordial Spirit Demonic Monsters [powerful demonic beasts or entities] to the point of utter annihilation.

For in the final hour, these beings ultimately represent a force within the Purple Realm. To a certain degree, though the three factions may despise one another, they are like grasshoppers tied to the same string [a Chinese idiom meaning being in the same difficult situation].
