I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2519 - 1131: Saving All Living Beings (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
"Simultaneously, dispatch commands to the Yi Yuan Dao Palace located in the East Land, directing Chen Lingming to command the Elders of Mysterious Water and Yan Huo, while calling forth thirty thousand disciples to provide reinforcement here."
In a single utterance, Chen Mobai disclosed the full extent of power the Five Elements Sect could mobilize at present. The might of the Mysterious Sea vastly outstrips that of the Desolate Sea. The Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court extends beyond merely the Island of Ten Thousand Immortals; it stands as one of the most firmly established forces within the Tianhe Realm.
This instance, with the Golden Crow Immortal City fallen, clearly signals that a prolonged conflict between the Eastern Continent's Righteous Dao and the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court is unavoidable. Without the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation established by Chen Mobai, the Five Elements Sect would likely focus solely on defending itself.
"Understood, Sect Master!"
E Yun meticulously noted down each instruction from Chen Mobai, then swiftly departed to handle these arrangements in sequence.
Not long after, beams of spiritual light erupted from the teleportation array in Northern Abyss City, streaking like a shower of meteors heading straight for the central hall of the Five Elements Sect within the Immortal City.
Over in the Eastern Wilderness, as soon as the intelligence arrived, every high-level cultivator of the Five Elements Sect, barring those in secluded cultivation, hurried over without delay.
"I’m borrowing the Sea-settling Sword for some time!"
Chen Mobai addressed Qing Nu at his side. She gave a gentle nod, passing him a sword of blue-green hue with a face full of concern.
Having perfected the Thousand Swords Dharma Body and mastered the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture, Chen Mobai was now capable of drawing out the Sea-settling Sword's utmost prowess, which proved far superior against the two flood dragons of the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court than the Purple Electric Sword.
Furthermore, among the Immortal Gate's three premier flying swords, they stood merely a step from attaining the sixth rank.
The Primordial Yang Sword had already elevated to the sixth rank as the Sword of Saintly Virtue. Chen Mobai was convinced that the Sea-settling Sword and the Mystic Finger Sword possessed similar possibilities.
This presented the perfect chance to temper the Sea-settling Sword alongside him and attempt its elevation. Reaching the sixth rank would offer immense advantages for Qing Nu's forthcoming divinity transformation.
The Sea-settling Sword brimmed with excitement. Ever since it came under Qing Nu's possession, it hadn't tasted a single drop of blood, nearly convincing itself it was a benevolent blade.
As Chen Mobai seized the sword's hilt, the blue-green longsword erupted in soaring sword light, forming what appeared like a massive sword pillar that thrust into the heavens right in Northern Abyss City's heart, sending shivers through all sword cultivators and practitioners of water-based arts.
In that instant, it felt as though their very fates hung beyond their grasp.
The cultivators in Northern Abyss City, beholding the piercing blue-green sword radiance piercing the sky over the Immortal City's core, stared in profound reverence.
Just then, two Nascent Soul presences flared up in the outskirts, followed by the swift approach above the main hall on a stunning blue bird.
"Junior Brother!"
The newcomers were none other than Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue. Upon getting the alert, they abandoned their intentions to acquire a Qinghong Bird from the Liang family.
Still, upon learning of this, Han Zhiling offered her newly advanced Rank-3 Qinghong Bird from Xiao Nanshan to Zhou Shengqing. Since Zhuo Ming remained in seclusion with no clear end, entrusting it to these two elders ensured it served a worthy purpose.
"I’ll entrust the sect's mobilization to you, Senior Brother. I sense an ominous feeling and must inspect the frontline conditions!"
Seeing Zhou Shengqing's arrival eased Chen Mobai's worries.
"Don't worry, Junior Brother; I'll manage these minor affairs."
Zhou Shengqing affirmed with a serious nod.
After exchanging greetings with Fu Zongjue, Chen Mobai took his leave from Qing Nu, then morphed into a silver gleam and vanished from sight.
In a flash, he arrived at the boundary of the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation along Eastern Yi's side.
His immense divine sense, at the mid-stage of deity transformation, unfurled, swiftly encompassing all of Eastern Yi within his perception.
Sure enough, across the Sun Bathing Sea region adjacent to the Mysterious Sea, devastation gripped every corner. With the Sun God Tree shattered and the coastal defenses utterly broken, nothing stood to protect it.
Myriad demonic beasts surged from the waves onto land, ravaging everything, slaying any creature in their path, as local cultivators mounted desperate resistances. But the overwhelming disparity in forces made their struggles largely in vain.
Chen Mobai let out a cold huff, poised to intervene, yet his face twisted in shock as he turned his gaze toward the Mysterious Sea's depths.
"Hahaha, Turtle Immortal Chen, you've arrived at last."
A thunderous dragon's bellow echoed from the ocean's abyss. A jet-black flood dragon thrust forth its razor-sharp dark talons, ripping apart the sea's surface and the thick fog drifting above, descending like a colossal curtain blotting out the sky toward Eastern Yi's shoreline.
Within Chen Mobai's eyes, a fiery glint sparked. His Second Primeval Spirit surged out, grasping the Primordial Yang Sword to become a blinding streak that lanced directly at the flood dragon's claw.
The ancient flood dragon showed no fear. Its gigantic form ascended from the ocean floor, its ebony scales absorbing all nearby light, glinting with icy thunder. As each section of its body surfaced, the sea boiled into chaotic swells. Towering waves rose like extensions of its backbone, layer after layer dominating the waters, while an oppressive force trailed its deadly claws, barreling toward Eastern Yi's terrain, as if set to drown the whole region.
In its native domain of the Mysterious Sea, the elder flood dragon displayed the grandeur of one of Tianhe Realm's nine supreme True Spirits. Its eyes gleamed like twin golden gems, casting a chill over the waves, radiating regal ferocity. Boundless seas thundered and swelled, crowned by the Sea-settling Pearl hovering over its crown.
Savage gales screamed, and oceans bellowed. Within mere breaths, the entire sea level had surged more than a hundred meters above Eastern Yi's continent. As the immense black dragon talon descended, it collided with the Second Primeval Spirit's Primordial Yang Sword, bursting into a brilliant clash of golden and obsidian lights that quaked the skies and earth.
Yet, even as the claw was halted, the myriad colossal waves of the Mysterious Sea continued their relentless pour toward Chen Mobai.
Amid roaring thunderclaps.
In that moment, the full length of Eastern Yi's coast vanished beneath the deluge.
Innumerable lives wailed as the torrent swept them away, and amid those colossal surges, the Mysterious Sea Monster Race grew wilder, gleefully hunting and butchering the drowned humans, livestock, and beasts.
Boom!
A titanic silhouette, akin to a divine peak, emerged from the heart of the thousands of massive waves, sword in hand. Crowned with a White Jade Crown, his eyes shone like stellar fires, clad in the Heavenly Robe of Dao Laws. A radiant Sword Array encircled him, morphing into nine brilliant Sword Stars that wheeled around his Thousand Swords Dharma Body as if heavenly orbits.
Lifting the Sea-settling Sword high, its golden tassel drew in the Water Great Dao essence refined by the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture, igniting in a blaze of unmatched splendor.
The fifth-rank Stabilizing Wind Technique unfurled, swiftly blanketing the entirety of the Heaven Cutting Sword Domain.
To the rush of flowing waters, the gigantic waves began their retreat. Every droplet of water yielded to an overwhelming force, lifting skyward, promptly exposing the ashen soil, stones, mighty trees, and ruins of homes. Of course, there were mortals who believed their end had come, now revealed once more, along with the bewildered Mysterious Sea Monster Race bereft of the ocean's cover.
The Thousand Swords Dharma Body swung the Sea-settling Sword lightly, and the vast rivulets of water it dominated overhead abruptly coalesced. They reshaped into millions of crystalline Waterflow Swords.
The downpour of Waterflow Swords descended like a storm, each one aimed precisely at the Mysterious Sea Monster Race ensnared in Chen Mobai's Divine Sense.
Sharp cracks of shells breaking echoed without cease, sprays of blood and fish gore scattering. Numerous Mysterious Sea Monster Race individuals perished without a cry, their heads and torsos run through by the deluge of Waterflow Swords, impaled firmly to the ground.
Roar!
Yet swiftly, a furious dragon's cry boomed once more. Following it, a force vastly surpassing the Sea-settling Sword's dominion emanated and infused from the Mysterious Sea.
The tens of thousands of Waterflow Swords, still en route to their targets among the Mysterious Sea Monster Race, abruptly dissolved in the air, reverting to pounding waves that roared toward Eastern Yi's shores.
Chen Mobai fixed his stare on the Sea-settling Pearl crowning the ancient flood dragon.
[Master, my entire Sword Qi has lost control!]
The Sea-settling Sword's alarmed voice resounded in Chen Mobai's mind.
This was an unprecedented ordeal for it.
Back in the Immortal Gate, save for the Spiritual Venerable, it reigned supreme against any Water Attribute cultivator.
"I’ll keep the ancient flood dragon tied down. Give it your all to stop the Mysterious Sea from overwhelming Eastern Yi!"
Chen Mobai made just this single demand of the Sea-settling Sword. Though utterly suppressed by the Sea-settling Pearl, it could still shield the territory from the sea's invasion, preserving all life.
[Master, this foe is incredibly powerful!]
The Sea-settling Sword responded with a touch of unease.
"I am even mightier!"
With those words left behind, a grayish-white grand bell materialized from the emptiness overhead Chen Mobai.
