Chapter 840 : Flames of Annihilation

After cleaving through one formidable foe, Eldrin Chen immediately felt the pressure lessen significantly.

The four Outer Realm Heavenly Demon [powerful demons from beyond this world], each harboring their own treacherous schemes, dared not commit their full strength to the battle. For a time, they were actually forced into a steady retreat by Eldrin Chen's relentless assault.

This was truly due to the overwhelming power of Eldrin Chen's Primordial One Primordial Solar Flame [the supreme, foundational flame of pure yang]. That Primordial Solar Flame [a divine flame of pure solar essence] was inherently the bane of Demonic Cultivator [practitioners who cultivate using demonic or unorthodox methods], dealing devastating damage to their kind.

Now, with the fusion of his five Arcane Power [profound, esoteric powers derived from deep cultivation], transformed into the Primordial One Primordial Solar Flame, its might had grown even more formidable.

After another hundred exchanges, Eldrin Chen seized another opening. Once more, he invoked the Primordial One Grasping Hand [a divine technique manifesting a giant, all-encompassing hand], capturing another demon in its grasp with a single move.

As the colossal hand descended, it brought with it a deluge of the Primordial One Primordial Solar Flame. The Demonic Cultivator at the Primordial Spirit [a high cultivation stage where one's spiritual essence condenses into a primordial form] realm, despite exhausting every technique at its disposal, found resistance futile.

"Aaaargh—!"

With a final, agonized shriek, it was instantly incinerated into a pile of ash, its form and spirit utterly annihilated.

"Hiss!"

Witnessing this, the onlookers could not help but draw in sharp, collective breaths of shock. Enjoyed this chapter? Read more at *audio-novel.com*.

It was truly because Eldrin Chen's methods were too astonishing, and the lethality of this Primordial One Grasping Hand was overwhelmingly powerful.

Within the Purple Seal Realm, Primordial Solar Divine Ability [supreme techniques powered by the essence of the primordial sun] are generally divided into two tiers: common Primordial Solar Divine Ability and Superior Primordial Solar Divine Abilities.

Common Primordial Solar Divine Ability are quite rare; for instance, the Two Polarities Divine Aegis is one such example. These kinds of Divine Ability [powerful supernatural techniques] serve as the trump cards for most Primordial Spirit Cultivator [cultivators who have condensed their spiritual core].

As for the Superior Primordial Solar Divine Abilities, they are typically only preserved by certain Immortal Path Lineage [sects or clans with a direct connection to the Immortal Path]. For the most part, only Demigod Patriarch [patriarchs who have half-stepped into divinity] and an exceedingly small number of Primordial Spirit Late Stage [cultivators at the late stage of the Primordial Spirit realm] can successfully cultivate them.

These Superior Primordial Solar Divine Abilities possess boundless potential. In essence, they are the legendary Immortal Rank Divine Abilities [divine abilities of a rank fit for true Immortals]. Those who cultivate such Divine Ability can, in the future, refine Immortal Spirit Essence [the spiritual essence of an Immortal] and elevate their technique to the Immortal rank.

Even among the Superior Primordial Solar Divine Abilities, there are distinctions in power. The first tier, within the Purple Seal Realm, consists of only two: the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder and the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Light.

This is because such Divine Ability require Five Spiritual Roots [a spiritual root affinity for all five elements] to cultivate. Strictly speaking, only a supreme Primordial Spirit with a foundation in the Great Encompassing Primordial Spirit [a supreme cultivation art] has any possibility of comprehending them successfully.

Such a profound foundation, coupled with the extremely stringent conditions, naturally earns the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder its reputation as the foremost offensive Divine Ability under heaven.

It is said that if one cultivates the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder to the Great Perfection Realm [the realm of flawless mastery], its power would rival that of true Immortal Rank Divine Abilities, sufficient to rely upon it to challenge and slay an Immortal.

Now, Eldrin Chen had created the 'Returning Abyss Primordial One Energy' [the unified energy of the primordial origin, refined through the abyss]. The 'Primordial One Grasping Hand' and 'Primordial One True Aegis' [the True Shield of the Primordial One] derived from it were already no weaker than the 'Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder'.

Such a profoundly wondrous supreme Divine Ability [a supernatural power cultivated through esoteric arts] is worthy of being listed in the first tier of Primordial Solar Divine Ability [Divine Abilities of the highest, sun-like order]. Once mastered, it would be sufficient to dominate the world.

More importantly, Eldrin Chen now cultivates five types of Arcane Power [mystical powers derived from fundamental cosmic laws] simultaneously, fusing them into the even more formidable Primordial One Foundation [a legendary spiritual foundation representing the unity of all primal forces]. This allows him to unleash the ultimate potential of the 'Primordial One Grasping Hand' [a Divine Ability that manifests a giant hand of unified primal energy].

Even the prodigious Imperial Sovereign Jiang, whose talent was hailed as Celestial Immortal [the realm of a true celestial being] caliber, only managed to comprehend four types of Arcane Power in his entire lifetime. Compared to his Primordial One Magical Power [magical power born from the unified primal essence], it fell far short.

It can be said that at the same cultivation realm, the same top-tier Divine Ability wielded by Eldrin Chen would unleash power far surpassing that of an ordinary Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core cultivation realm] cultivator.

Even Imperial Sovereign Jiang and the successive Immortal who had Ascendant Immortal [ascended to become true immortals] would feel inadequate in comparison, let alone any Demigod Patriarch [a patriarch at the half-step to divinity realm].

This demonstrates how astonishing the combined power of the Five Elements Primordial One Magical Power [magical power unifying the five primal elements] and the 'Returning Abyss Primordial One Energy' [an energy comparable to a Primordial Spirit Late Stage [late stage of the Primordial Spirit realm] Divine Ability] truly is.

This achievement might be unprecedented and likely never to be surpassed in the entire annals of Purple Seal Realm [a specific cultivation world or realm]. To describe it in one phrase, six words would suffice.

A single masterstroke, conquering all under heaven.

By deploying his Primordial One True Aegis [a defensive Divine Ability forming an impenetrable shield of unified energy], Eldrin Chen could ignore myriad mystical techniques and Spiritual Treasure [enchanted artifacts used by cultivators]. Only the offensive power of a Primordial Spirit Late Stage cultivator could hope to breach it.

Without a High Grade Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [a supreme-grade treasure of solar essence] or a Great Perfection Realm [the pinnacle stage of a cultivation realm] Primordial Solar Divine Ability, he would remain invincible as long as his magical power was not completely exhausted.

And if one condenses the Primordial One Grasping Hand [a divine ability that allows the user to grasp stars, seize the moon, and suppress demons], they could capture stars, seize the moon, and suppress fiends. An ordinary Primordial Spirit Early Stage [the initial stage of the Primordial Spirit realm] cultivator, once seized by it, would most likely be suppressed and slain on the spot.

"BOOM—"

Witnessing Eldrin Chen slay yet another Primordial Spirit Demonic Cultivator, the remaining three Heavenly Demons felt a surge of terror in their hearts, growing even more reluctant to confront him.

These newly-advanced Primordial Spirit Heavenly Demon [Heavenly Demons at the Primordial Spirit realm] had been forcibly elevated to the Primordial Spirit Realm [the Primordial Spirit cultivation stage] by the Outer Realm Demon God [a powerful demonic entity from beyond this world] specifically for this battle. Although their combat power had reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, their Spiritual Treasure [enchanted artifacts used by cultivators] and Divine Ability [supernatural powers cultivated through profound techniques] were far inferior to those of seasoned Primordial Spirit Path Lord [Path Lords at the Primordial Spirit realm].

Now, facing Eldrin Chen unleashing his divine might, they dared not step forward to meet their deaths and sought to disengage and flee for their lives.

"Thinking of running? It won't be that easy!" The story continues at audio-novel dot com.

Just as the tide of battle turned, eight or nine figures suddenly flew over from the distant void. They were actually demonic Primordial Spirit [cultivators or beings at the Primordial Spirit stage] from the Purple Seal Realm.

Eldrin Chen swept his gaze over them and recognized several familiar presences.

These figures were the Five Poisons Young Master, the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor, the Netherwater Profound Serpent Emperor, and two Golden-Winged Great Roc Demon Emperor [powerful demonic bird emperors] from the Eastern Sea Cultivation World.

"They held back earlier and only moved now that the situation reversed. It seems these fiends were never truly aligned with us."

In the span of a single breath, Eldrin Chen's gaze chilled for a fleeting moment before he swiftly suppressed the emotion.

It turned out that several Primordial Spirit Realm [the spiritual core cultivation stage] demons and monsters had also come to the Eastern Sea Cultivation World this time, intending to lend a hand to the Human Race at a critical juncture.

However, earlier at the Black Tortoise Star Palace, witnessing the Human Race's defeat unfold too rapidly, they had not dared to intervene in the battle.

Now, they had long since hidden themselves, hoping to let the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon [demonic beings from beyond this world] and the Human Race exhaust each other's strength, waiting to step in only after both sides were mutually wounded.

But now, seeing Eldrin Chen overwhelmingly defeat the enemies and the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon showing signs of collapse, they finally decided to intervene and join in beating the retreating foe.

"Slay them!"

Seeing the demon and monster races block the retreat of the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, Eldrin Chen immediately acted, summoning the Primordial One Giant Hand [a divine technique manifesting a colossal ethereal hand] to seize the opportunity and encircle the enemy.

Path Master Mingyuan [a Daoist title meaning 'Bright Abyss']'s eyes lit up even brighter. He promptly summoned an Eight Trigrams Formation Disk [a magical disk inscribed with the eight trigrams, used for sealing space], sealing the entire void and cutting off the retreat path for the Outer Realm Demon God [a powerful demonic deity from beyond this world].

"This is..."

The crowd was momentarily stunned, unable to hide their looks of astonishment.

Path Master Mingyuan let out a sigh of relief and then spoke, "This is a replica of the Eight Trigrams Plate [a magical artifact based on the eight trigrams of divination], its grade is only Sixth Rank Mid-Grade [a mid-level artifact of the sixth rank], but it can temporarily trap them."

"However, with this humble Daoist's spiritual power, I can only hold them for a brief moment. Everyone, act swiftly and prevent them from breaking the formation."

"..."

With the Eight Trigrams Plate in play, the group seized the moment and unleashed their full arsenal, launching a relentless assault on the horde of Heavenly Demons.

During this time, Eldrin Chen displayed awe-inspiring prowess, single-handedly slaying two more Primordial Spirit Demonic Cultivator [demonic cultivators who have attained the Primordial Spirit realm].

The others also pressed the attack, preventing the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon [demonic beings from realms beyond this world] from breaching the formation. After three days and nights of fierce combat, the group had already slain over a dozen Primordial Spirit Demonic Cultivator.

By the time Path Master Mingyuan's spiritual power was finally exhausted and the Formation [a structured arrangement of energy used for defense, offense, or confinement] was shattered, only six or seven of the Demon God [powerful, god-like demonic entities] remained.

The few remaining Primordial Spirit Heavenly Demon [Heavenly Demons possessing power equivalent to the Primordial Spirit realm] were mostly grievously wounded. They fled the formation, dragging their injured forms into the depths of the void.

The group gave chase for over ten days, cutting down several more Primordial Spirit Heavenly Demon. In the end, only the Fiend Race Saintess [a holy maiden of the fiendish demon race] and the Twin-Winged Celestial Demon [a celestial demon possessing two powerful wings] managed to escape.
