I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2476 - 1103: Five Great Scripture (Part 2)

Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Chen Mobai agreed to allocate the Dao Fruits from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree to bolster the Immortal Gate's war artifacts against potential threats like the Death God, prioritizing survival in the upcoming opening war. Discussions highlighted the untapped potential of the alchemy-focused Dao Fruits, which hold Sixth and Seventh Rank knowledge unused due to current self-sufficiency in lower-rank elixirs, though Chen Mobai considered assigning one to Qing Nu to advance her skills amid future breakthroughs. Cheng Xuan initiated refinements starting with Deng Daoyun and promising artifact refiners, sparking fierce competition within the Artifact Refiner Association, while the Array Masters Association buzzed with enthusiasm following the announcement of Cheng Xuan and Yunhai's Divinity Transformation and Yunhai's leadership in redesigning the Sky Curtain Ground Network, recruiting all qualified Rank-3 array masters for the monumental task.

While Cheng Xuan and Yun Hai, the freshly promoted Deity Transformation True Monarchs, threw themselves into their duties with full vigor, another welcome update arrived for Chen Mobai.

At Ambition Immortal Peak, Elder Qingping managed to sync perfectly with the heavenly rules, kicking off her advance from Nascent Soul to Deity Transformation thanks to the power of the Fruit of Dao’s Rule.

With Qi Yuheng standing guard, Chen Mobai felt completely relaxed. Still, when the report came in, he employed Void Teleportation for a quick visit and offhandedly shared his recent chat with the Great Chun Divine Tree.

"Pure Yang, I trust you without question, but when it comes to the Jumang Lineage, caution seems wise. Should the Great Chun Divine Tree complete her Transformation, her Sixth Rank essence might overwhelm the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation's hold on her."

"Plus, appearances can deceive the heart's true intent. Her vows may ring true, yet she holds the power to consume every Spirit Vein on the Earth Element Star. Lacking a Void Refining Realm expert, betting on her benevolence is too risky."

"If we move forward at all, it ought to wait until you've attained the Void Refining Realm."

Qi Yuheng laid out his thoughts plainly to Chen Mobai.

He harbored no faith in the Jumang Lineage.

In those days, Ancestor Long Wei and the Spiritual Venerable struggled fiercely to contain the Evergreen Ancestor and the Great Chun Divine Tree; he refused to let her slip loose on his shift.

Chen Mobai grasped his worries fully.

The key issue lay in how the Great Chun Tree could advance by absorbing the planet's Spirit Veins.

"I’ll heed your guidance, elder brother."

Chen Mobai always favored a collaborative approach. With Qi Yuheng expressing himself so directly, agreement came naturally.

Yet, after taking an Immortal Fruit from the Great Chun Divine Tree, he sensed a duty to lend her aid.

Besides, testing the Patching Heaven Immortal Skill would let him apply the technique to refine Qing Nu's roots into a Three-Element Heavenly Spiritual Root, allowing her to practice the Lasting Spring Cultivation.

The Longevity Sect’s Black Emperor Abyssal Scripture topped out at the Spirit Transformation Stage, so for Qing Nu to pursue Void Refining later on, the Lasting Spring Cultivation path might become essential.

Here, the Sixth Rank Great Chun Immortal Fruit would prove invaluable.

Thus, Chen Mobai resolved to push himself further, racing toward the Void Refining Realm breakthrough. That would free the Great Chun Divine Tree to transform in safety.

Following his discussion with Qi Yuheng, Chen Mobai sought out Yuan Xu.

"True Monarch, this thread of spiritual energy you provided is truly unique; it shifts into various innate or acquired spiritual energies from the Immortal Gate realm..."

In Yuan Xu’s lab, Chen Mobai noted how the strand of Seventh Rank Immortal Spirit Qi had been split into thinner filaments using advanced tools, then directed through processes to morph into Five Elements, Yin Yang, Wind, and Thunder attribute spiritual energies.

Taking the video record from Yuan Xu, Chen Mobai watched the Immortal Spirit Qi first convert to Innate Spiritual Qi before gradually shifting to Acquired Spiritual Qi as time passed.

"Any findings from your studies?"

Chen Mobai inquired.

"Have a look, True Monarch!"

Yuan Xu drew Chen Mobai nearer, then used a Guidance Book-activated device to steer the final leftover strand of Immortal Spirit Qi.

Chen Mobai observed as Yuan Xu fed in his own True Qi via a separate tube, letting it merge with this Immortal Spirit Qi strand.

Suddenly, Chen Mobai witnessed Yuan Xu’s Earth True Qi, already remarkably refined, undergo an exalted shift upon blending with the Immortal Spirit Qi, sparking a profound alteration beyond his grasp.

It went beyond merely reverting Acquired to Innate; a trace of Dao Rhythm appeared to emerge too.

"Our Patching Heaven Lineage’s ancestors, drawing from the Patching Heaven Seal of Patriarch Illusion Color, uncovered deep insights. One such text covers the universe’s origin, the division of heaven and earth."

"This passage, traced back to the Mystic Palace, goes by the name ’Five Great Scripture’!"

"It describes five phases before the universe birthed all existence, called the Innate Five Great: Taiyi, Tai Chu, Tai Shi, Tai Su, and Tai Chi."

"Of these, Tai Chu exists without form or substance, holding only Innate Qi more ancient than Chaos itself."

"Every cosmic phenomenon, shape, material, and being sprang from this Tai Chu Innate Qi, so the Five Great Scripture declares, ’Tai Chu Qi births endless creations!’

"The unique spiritual energy you condensed with the Primordial Bead, True Monarch, adapts to any Innate Qi based on the True Qi it encounters, mirroring the Tai Chu Qi portrayal."

After hearing Yuan Xu out, Chen Mobai felt astonishment while also admiring the Four Great Daoist Sects’ remarkable legacy.

The Patching Heaven Lineage truly possessed such treasures.

Who could say how many secrets in the Patching Heaven Seal awaited discovery; it might rival the Jade Tree from Dan Ding Taoist in depth.

"Is the full Five Great Scripture available here?"

Though Chen Mobai relied on Yuan Xu’s expertise, he preferred a personal review. After all, his teacher at Purple Cloud Palace once noted that forging a new creation universe offered the ultimate path to Dao Eternity.

As Yuan Xu described, the Five Great Scripture tied into universe genesis.

He pondered its originator.

"I learned of it through Teacher Qian Xing. It started in the teacher’s hands but likely crumbled to nothing with Gathering-Immortals Peak in the Death God’s Tribulation. I pieced it together from recollection," Yuan Xu quickly forwarded the ready electronic copy to Chen Mobai, who accessed it and eyed the front page.

"Five Great Scripture"!

In the bottom right, a subtitle read: Mystic Palace Heaven and Sea!

This marked the scripture’s source.

But the phrasing felt odd.

Before long, Chen Mobai connected the dots.

Though the Patching Heaven Lineage stemmed from White Crane Dao Arena, its Grandmaster hailed from the Great Thousand Universe’s northern edge, the Mystic Palace.

Thus, "Mystic Palace" indicated the origin site.

The trailing "Heaven and Sea" served as the author’s designation.

Heaven and Sea...

Chen Mobai murmured it repeatedly, unexpectedly recalling that in the Tianhe Realm, Heaven and Sea housed the Mother of Water Palace as ruler over the Five Continents and Four Seas.

What an uncanny link.

As this idea flickered through his thoughts, Chen Mobai froze in surprise.

He remembered the blue-haired, blue-robed senior sister on a turtle at Purple Cloud Palace, querying the teacher on creation arts.

By the front-row seating order, Senior Brother Nine-headed Dragon ruled Dragon Palace, Senior Sister Phoenix led Phoenix Palace. The turtle-riding senior sister likely commanded Mystic Palace.

Might she have forged the Tianhe Realm?

Mother of Water Palace sat in Heaven and Sea.

Did "Heaven and Sea" draw from her name?

These notions stirred Chen Mobai’s pulse, even at his Spirit Transformation Stage.

He sensed a brush with the Tianhe Realm’s hidden reality.

Connecting it to the Taixu True King’s hunt for the Gate of Taixu in Tianhe Realm’s Spiritual Void Immortal Realm, Chen Mobai started to question his Turtle Treasure’s actual source.

Should his Turtle Treasure truly be the Gate of Taixu, greater vigilance awaited him ahead.

His teacher at Purple Cloud Palace had warned as much.

To birth a universe and master creation, the Gate of Taixu formed the heart; absent it, no amount of vast mana could achieve transcendence.

Exposing such an item would draw those Purple Cloud Palace seniors charging to Earth Element Star to claim it from him.

The Tianhe Realm powers might follow suit.

Contemplating possession of an artifact lusted after by supreme Pure Yang forces across two realms, Chen Mobai broke into a cold sweat.

"True Monarch, True Monarch..."

Just then, Yuan Xu’s call pierced his reverie, snapping Chen Mobai back as his aura erupted uncontrollably.

Unable to endure, Yuan Xu’s thick locks faded to phantom wisps and disappeared, his complexion drained white, his body tumbling earthward.

Luckily, Chen Mobai reined himself in at once, pulling back the aura the moment it surged.

"Keep this secret tight; speak of it to no one," Chen Mobai warned Yuan Xu, gesturing toward the fully depleted Immortal Spirit Qi.
