I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2340 - 1057: Sword Domain: Heaven Cutting_3
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
A thunderous roar shook the world, followed immediately by the mournful cry of a sword as the earth trembled.
The Primordial Yang Sword held the blade of the Purple Electric Sword mid-air, forcing it into a sharp upward curve. This sight symbolized its complete submission.
However, this did not signify that Dao Mie had been truly defeated.
At the critical moment, Chen Mobai had realized the Purple Electric Sword was losing control; it was locked into a slashing motion it could not retract. To prevent both weapons from being destroyed, he withdrew the Sword Killing Stars and instead empowered the Purple Electric Sword with the Thousand Swords Dharma Body.
Without the support of the Sword Domain, the Purple Electric Sword alone was simply no match for the Primordial Yang Sword.
With a sharp hum, the Primordial Yang Sword vibrated slightly. The Purple Electric Sword, previously pinned by the tip, was sent flying backward. Its curved blade shook violently in the air, emitting a crisp, ringing sound.
[Master...]
As it returned to Chen Mobai’s side, the Purple Electric Sword was filled with a sense of shame.
Having reached the Fifth Rank Superior Grade and emerged from the Washing Sword Pool with grand ambitions, it had intended to dominate the world. It believed that even against the other three Fifth Rank Superior flying swords within the Immortal Gate, it would stand unrivaled despite being the newcomer.
Yet, in its last two battles—first against the Death God and now here—it had tasted nothing but defeat.
This led the Purple Electric Sword to question if its rank had actually decreased rather than improved.
[Your opponent is your senior, so losing is only natural. Work hard and you will catch up; I will assist you.]
Chen Mobai spoke these comforting words instinctively. After all, his current level of Cultivation was largely thanks to the Purple Electric Sword.
Even though he now wielded the more powerful Primordial Yang Sword, he remained nostalgic; in his heart, the Purple Electric Sword was still his primary weapon.
[Master, you are too kind!]
The Purple Electric Sword Spirit was moved to its core by his sentiment.
Still, it felt lost on how to actually surpass the Primordial Yang Sword. It felt as though it had reached the ceiling of its potential.
It had attained the Fifth Rank Superior Grade, mastered the Fifth Rank Purple Brilliance Sword Intent, and could even perform the sublime One Sword Breaks All Laws.
The three milestones Master Qing Shi had set during its forging had all been reached; it no longer knew which direction to take.
[In the future, you will follow the Thousand Swords Dharma Body. You can use the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation to temper yourself. I will also search for suitable sixth rank spirit materials to transform you into the first sixth rank flying sword of the Immortal Gate.]
When Chen Mobai transmitted these thoughts, the Sword Spirit nodded eagerly, signaling its intent to persevere through any hardship to reach that goal.
Once the Purple Electric Sword was settled, Chen Mobai satisfiedly recalled both the Second Primeval Spirit and the Primordial Yang Sword.
His Divine Sense had already picked up the presence of the Five Elements Sect members gathered below.
Earlier, a flash of inspiration had allowed him to craft a Sword Domain utilizing the traits of the Thousand Swords Dharma Body, and he had been completely focused on that breakthrough. Such moments of clarity are fleeting, and he knew that if he didn't seize the chance, it might never return.
Having successfully manifested the Sword Domain, Chen Mobai could now legitimately claim to be a peerless sword cultivation genius.
He felt confident that even if Bai Guang were in the same realm, he could use the Sword Domain to utterly dominate her in a fight.
After weighing several options, he decided to name the domain "Heaven Cutting."
This was a tribute to his roots; one must never forget the source of their success. His current mastery of the Dao of the sword was deeply rooted in the Longevity Sword Intent of the Heaven Cutting Line.
Beyond the Law of the Five Tones, it was this specific sword intent that allowed him to effortlessly assimilate Bai Guang’s sword will. It served as the foundational core of his Sword Domain.
After clearing the remnants of the battlefield, Chen Mobai turned into a streak of silver light, teleporting directly before the group from the Five Elements Sect.
"Greetings, Sect Leader Martial Brother! We congratulate you on your magnificent progress in sword cultivation!"
Zhou Shengqing and the others had been watching intently. When Chen Mobai emerged from thin air, they immediately bowed and performed the formal Dao ceremony.
"Senior brothers and nephews, there is no need for such formality. While I was in meditation, I felt the lingering evil aura in East Wu finally vanishing, so I came to check. To my surprise, I experienced a sudden epiphany here, unlocking the secrets of sword cultivation into Divinity Transformation. I couldn't resist testing it out in the skies..."
As he spoke, Chen Mobai shared a smile with Qing Nu, glad to see his wife after their long separation, and flew down to stand beside her.
"Junior Brother, have you truly mastered sword cultivation into Divinity Transformation?"
Even though they had suspected as much, hearing it directly from Chen Mobai left Zhou Shengqing and his peers both shocked and elated.
"It is true, but if I were to fully ascend to Divinity Transformation now, the signs of the heavenly tribulation would be impossible to hide."
"I worry about being distracted during the tribulation, especially since many enemies still plot against the Five Elements Sect in the shadows. Therefore, I chose to hold back at the final moment, simply perfecting the techniques required for sword cultivation into Divinity Transformation."
"I intend to wait until all hidden threats are dealt with—and ideally after obtaining the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill—before I take that final step in peace."
These words filled the Five Elements Sect members with awe. Their Sect Leader Martial Brother truly lived up to his name as a genius, making the daunting mystery of Divinity Transformation seem simple.
Chen Lingming and Su Ziluo looked at each other, their eyes reflecting their shared amazement. This level of talent surely surpassed even the Yi Yuan Founder.
"You are right. The Tribulation of Deity Transformation is terrifyingly dangerous; even with a fifth rank formation, success isn't certain. Furthermore, the other Holy Lands in the East Land and the Demon Race Royal Courts would hate to see a powerful sword cultivator reach Divinity Transformation. We must plan this carefully to ensure no one interferes with your breakthrough, Junior Brother."
As the most senior member present, Zhou Shengqing spoke with a hint of daze, realizing the Five Elements Sect was on the verge of becoming a true Holy Land.
A Holy Land!
He remembered his time under the Hun Yuan Ancestor, listening to tales of the East Land and the Yi Yuan Dao Palace with a heart full of bitterness. He had always been frustrated that as a Yi Yuan disciple, he wasn't part of a Holy Land.
Historically, Holy Lands only existed in the East Land of the Eastern Continent.
If the Five Elements Sect in the Eastern Wilderness achieved that status, Zhou Shengqing’s name would be etched in history forever.
With Chen Mobai having perfected the path to Divinity Transformation, the goal was within reach.
The realization hit Zhou Ye and Mo Douguang as well, leaving them visibly shaken with excitement.
"Ancestor, my preparations in the East Barbarians are complete. I am merely waiting for your order to seize all lands except for the Golden Crow Immortal City. When shall we strike?"
Zhou Ye even updated his way of addressing Chen Mobai. After giving a brief summary of his work in the East Barbarians, he was already imagining the Five Elements Sect uniting the three regions of the Eastern Continent's frontier.
"There is no rush. A place like Golden Crow Immortal City isn't worth me drawing my sword just yet."
Chen Mobai shook his head, his gaze shifting toward the distant horizon of the East Land.
