I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2587 - 1176: Chaos Primal Energy Cannon Activation (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
"I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave." After glancing at the time, Chen Mobai voiced his goodbye.
"Don’t forget your agreement with Senior Big Tree," Wenren Xuewei sensed the Power of Void rippling nearby and gave him a reminder.
"Hmm."
A nod came from Chen Mobai as silver light erupted from his form, making him disappear right there.
Instead of heading back to Crimson Mountain, he headed directly for the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains.
"Has the day finally arrived?"
Qi Yuheng heard Chen Mobai’s words, anticipation filling his voice.
With no escape possible, they ought to confront this initial battle at peak readiness and utmost assurance.
"Once the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon wipes out Ming Wang Star, I’ll employ the Portal to draw in and seize the Power of Void from its shattered star core, then team up with Qing Ping to convert it via the Primordial Bead into Spiritual Energy, before channeling it back into Earth Element Star’s key Spiritual Pivots."
"This Spiritual Energy will enhance the Planet Power Furnace’s output further, thrusting Earth Element Star deeper into the cosmos."
"After verifying we’ve evaded the Three-Eyed Tribe, I’ll trigger the Portal to dispatch you to the Central Dojo at the Cosmic Center..."
Chen Mobai outlined the strategy with Qi Yuheng in broad strokes; for now, it remained provisional, as interplanetary clashes could turn any tiny deviation into complete upheaval.
Earth Element Star’s nomadic journey made sense on paper, yet real-world implementation would inevitably face countless unexpected hurdles.
"Pure Yang, thanks for overseeing the grand scheme."
Qi Yuheng offered sincere thanks, though Chen Mobai dismissed it with a wave, saying it was simply his responsibility.
"When we power up the Portal, I’ll try to expel Death God’s seal first. As long as that ticking bomb lingers on Earth Element Star even one more day, our escape won’t bring true tranquility."
Chen Mobai brought up yet another issue, prompting vigorous nods from Qi Yuheng.
Soon after, the freshly roused war artifacts of the Immortal Gate, fueled by vast quantities of Spirit Stones and Spiritual Liquid, soared into the Cosmic Starry Sky resembling a fleet of celestial halls.
Chen Mobai positioned the Portal beyond the Heavenly Curtain too; as Ming Wang Star drew near, this supreme treasure had linked the pair of worlds.
Yet, with Chen Mobai’s grasp of the Void Great Dao enabling its refinement, the Portal kept rumbling steadily without parting open thus far.
Surrounded by surging waves of natural spiritual energy, Lingxiao Palace, Four Symbols Dao Palace, Six Heavenly Gates, Twenty-Eight Constellations Immortal Armor, Star Space Battleship, and more packed the Heavenly Curtain densely.
At the heart, Lingxiao Palace gleamed with golden magnificence, igniting countless Restriction Talismans unnoticed, while Cheng Xuan and the Immortal Gate’s Artifact Refiners unveiled the war artifact’s ultimate might.
Spirit Stones emptied rapidly and Spiritual Liquid pools vanished as Lingxiao Palace broke apart and reshaped, morphing into an enormous cannon tube amid the cosmic emptiness.
Amid thunderous booms, Chen Mobai joined Tao Hua, Qing Ping, and Narcissus—the Deity Transformation True Monarchs—in commanding the Four Symbols Dao Palace. Their profound cultivation allowed them to unleash the artifacts’ peak power effortlessly, even sans the Immortal Gate Army’s formation boost.
Beyond Earth Element Star in all four cardinal points, the Twenty-Eight Star Constellations blazed, drawing in endless stellar spiritual energy to form four gigantic Void Domains, linking up with Yunhai’s Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation.
Through explosive rumbles, the Four Symbols Dao Palace’s Nine Heavens Immortal Mansion stood as four immense pillars piercing heaven and earth. They drew in and purified the immense spiritual energy released from Earth Element Star’s depths, spewing four pure crystal rays toward the cannon-like Lingxiao Palace.
Buzz!
A piercing hum that rattled Nascent Soul cultivators’ ears resounded, as a flicker of annihilating white glow emerged from the cannon tube’s core crafted by Lingxiao Palace.
Hovering over the barrel was a progress indicator conjured from Cheng Xuan’s Mana.
It showed 1%.
All Immortal Sect disciples on site stared in stunned disbelief.
The spiritual energy pulled by the Nine Heavens Immortal Mansion from the Four Symbols Dao Palace matched the Immortal Sect’s hundred-year stockpile.
Didn’t that imply filling the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon’s second phase to 100% would exhaust Earth Element Star’s core vitality—and still fall short!?
"At 10% charge, it can be fired, but its power will only be equivalent to the first stage."
"The more charged, the more powerful it becomes."
"Senior Brother Pure Yang, how much do you think we should charge it?"
Yunhai True Monarch spoke up; alongside Cheng Xuan and Yuan Xu, he’d dissected the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon completely over the years.
In Chen Mobai’s view, safety demanded maximum charge.
But maxing it out would hurl the Immortal Gate into a dark era of scarcity.
Hence, sparing some spiritual energy remained essential.
Apart from what the three billion cultivators needed for daily life and survival, extra was vital for the ultimate activation to kick off Earth Element Star’s wandering initiative.
Chen Mobai’s Square Inch Book crunched numbers in a flash, pinpointing 49% as the threshold.
That would sap seventy percent of the Immortal Gate’s reserves.
Still, Chen Mobai yearned to preserve more spiritual energy if feasible. He didn’t want the war forcing everyone into a millennium of austerity.
Though Qing Ping wielded the Primordial Bead masterfully, minimizing the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon’s trigger to precisely obliterate Ming Wang Star was ideal.
Exactly how much would suffice?
While Chen Mobai mulled it over, his phone buzzed with a sudden alert, leaving him curious about the sender at such a moment.
His Divine Sense scanned it, sharpening his features instantly.
It came from Turtle Treasure as a notification.
The alert he’d configured signaled Purple Cloud Palace’s landing on Ming Wang Star, ready for transport now.
"How much time is needed to charge to 49%?"
Chen Mobai raised his gaze to Yunhai, who checked the progress and quoted a timeframe.
"Currently, since the major Spiritual Pivots have freshly unlocked and pent-up spiritual energy surges forth rapidly, charging advances quicker than normal. Once the Four Symbols Dao Palace and Lingxiao Palace hit 10%, Earth Element Star’s Spiritual Pivots will naturally hold back to prevent leaks, slowing the pace. Yet, with the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, I can force more out, reaching full speed in roughly twenty days at best."
With a nod, Chen Mobai called forth his Second Primeval Spirit to helm the Vermilion Dao Palace.
"Ming Wang Star will enter optimal firing range in about three months; meanwhile, maintain the charge at around 30%. During this period, I’ll personally go over there via the Portal to assess the opponents."
With those words, Chen Mobai’s primary form extended a finger toward the adjacent Portal.
Silver brilliance flickered, parting a narrow crack between the Portal’s sealed stone doors.
The Deity Transformation True Monarchs there, along with Immortal Gate Nascent Souls, were completely awed by Chen Mobai’s bold choice.
"Pure Yang, isn’t this too risky!"
Seeing this, Qi Yuheng urgently cautioned.
No matter Chen Mobai’s sky-high cultivation, Domain mastery, and slaying of the King of the Underworld, the Portal’s far side was enemy territory, encircled by the Death God’s River of Death.
Unlike Dragon God Star, return seemed improbable.
"Rest assured, I know the limits. And if I am detained, you need not concern yourself with me; just go ahead and fire the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon."
Chen Mobai replied with steady calm, inspiring awe among every Immortal Sect disciple watching.
Qi Yuheng and others yearned to dissuade him more, but Chen Mobai had already warped to the Portal, forcing the gates further apart.
Instantly, dazzling silver light engulfed him wholly, and he vanished from the Portal’s front.
"It seems Pure Yang has already successfully refined the Portal." As the top cultivator there, Qi Yuheng sighed this observation.
From grasping Void Dao Rhymes in Purple Cloud Palace, he perceived hints of the Sixth Rank Treasure Portal’s secrets.
Nevertheless, he hadn’t witnessed Chen Mobai crossing through bodily.
He figured it stemmed from some advanced method Chen Mobai employed post-refinement.
