I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2481 - 1107: Innate Yin Yang Great Dao
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Upon his return to the Eastern Wilderness, Chen Mobai consulted E Yun on the latest developments across the East Continent, realizing no matters demanded his personal involvement.
Yet, at his Deity Transformation stage, only stirrings from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court could possibly draw him into action.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, cultivators sailing from the East Barbarians often face strikes from the Mysterious Sea's demonic beasts. The strength and number of these assaults have surged dramatically..."
E Yun delivered the reports that troubled Chen Mobai. A horde of demonic beasts from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court had assembled by the shores close to Golden Crow Immortal City, though they lurked in wait, holding back from invading the East Continent.
Beyond the Sun Bathing Sea region, the Five Elements Sect held a modest area touching the Mysterious Sea. Cultivators from the East Barbarians figured that with a Deity Transformation True Monarch such as Chen Mobai overseeing the Five Elements Sect, the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court would exercise caution, prompting them to set off from that spot.
But what escaped their notice was the deep hatred the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court harbored for Chen Mobai above all.
Since the all-out conflict hadn't broken out, plenty of loose cultivators, blind to these elite-level secrets, kept boldly heading out to sea in pursuit of oceanic treasures.
Even if a treasure vessel overturned in the Mysterious Sea, it was viewed as mere bad luck for the passengers.
"Issue a sect-wide alert to prevent needless losses."
Chen Mobai wasn't prepared yet for an all-out clash with the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court. Though the Five Elements Sect could rally over a million cultivators at present, their might paled against the vast forces of the Mysterious Sea.
It made more sense to hold off until the Dongling Domain fully opened, freeing up resources from the East Continent's major righteous sects, and clarifying the outcomes of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pills, before tackling this issue.
The Mysterious Sea differs vastly from the Desolate Sea.
With that in mind, Chen Mobai asked after the Dongling situation.
Based on the schedule, Xing Ji and Earth Virtue ought to have resolved their rivalry by now.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, after Shenxi, the Dao Morale Sect Master, overcame the Divine Transformation Heavenly Tribulation last year, Dustless True Monarch has aided him in solidifying his realm and lacked time for the Dongling Domain; as a result, the latter portion of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill trade has been postponed..."
E Yun relayed the details he possessed, drawn from Five Elements Sect disciples posted in Dongling.
This event had stirred major buzz a year back.
Back then, Xing Ji's Dao Coins had outstripped Earth Virtue's, entitling him per their earlier pact to claim the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill.
Now, with the hold-up, fresh troubles were bound to emerge.
Chen Mobai saw Earth Virtue as quite lucky, since this postponement granted him fresh chances.
Should they seize the moment to slay a Fourth Rank demonic beast, they could potentially reverse the verdict.
"At present, Star Heaven Dao Sect pushes publicly to settle the ranking ahead, with the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill exchange to follow. Yi Yuan Dao Palace demands sticking to the exchange's original timing."
E Yun outlined the Dongling Domain affairs, adding that the heavy influx of Nascent Soul cultivators from Dao Morale Sect, alongside meddling from Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Sect and Taixu Piaomiao Palace, kept the scene steady overall.
"Sect Master, now that Yi Yuan Dao Palace serves as our sub-sect, do we step in to assist?"
Once finished with the updates, E Yun ventured the question.
Having served under Chen Mobai for years, his outlook had widened considerably.
One must always back allies before strangers.
"Dustless True Monarch originally set this in motion. He'll manage it, and I won't meddle."
Chen Mobai declined with a shake of his head, not just for that alone, but also due to his vow against picking sides upon departing the Dongling Domain.
The Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice had turned into a hallmark for the Five Elements Commerce Association, with Zhuo Ming even planning to crossbreed it for novel Fourth Rank Spirit Rice varieties.
In his elevated position and cultivation, taking a favor only to shatter a pledge was unthinkable.
"Understood, Sect Master. One additional item: confidential news from Sky Meal Building about Taixu Piaomiao Palace. It suggests Palace Master Azure Fall may have consumed the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, yet likely met with failure..."
As E Yun continued, he handed over a Jade Slip.
Cannon Dragon and Cooking Phoenix, both Nascent Soul cultivators, had been fully won over by Chen Mobai. Through rare advances in their realms, fueled by lavish materials like Civet Power's meat and blood plus Flood Dragon Blood, they now funneled key intel from Sky Meal Building straight to E Yun for the Five Elements Sect.
Having scanned it, Chen Mobai gave a faint head shake, regret etching his features.
Of the three premier Sect Masters in Eastern Earth Holy Land, Shenxi and Ni Yuanzhong both triumphed in Divinity Transformation, while Azure Fall Palace Master stumbled.
As the foremost holy land in Tianhe Realm, Taixu Piaomiao Palace boasted foundations eclipsing Dao Morale Sect and Nine Heavens Morality Sect, leaving her setback down to insufficient aptitude.
Luckily, this era's Zhang Pankong and Dan Miaosu shone with exceptional gifts; without them, Chen Mobai would truly fret over Taixu Piaomiao Palace's prospects in the Eastern Continent post-Da Kong True Monarch.
Next, Chen Mobai remembered his commitment in Dongling Immortal City to Palace Master Azure Fall—to join the Five Rank Artifact Refiner slots in the forging event.
He held onto resources from the Golden Flame Manticore and Civet Power, planning to forge a Five Rank Magic Artifact robe for personal use with the former.
After all, the Primordial Yang Set's strength amplified in unison, and for upcoming Magic Duels, the Second Primeval Spirit would typically wield it, leaving his primary form in need of separate attire.
