I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2617 - 1195: The Imperial City of Days Past
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
With the key discussions wrapped up, Dustless True Monarch rose to his feet, preparing the pill furnace.
Chen Mobai and the fellow guests settled into the grass pavilion, observing the Eastern Continent's premier Alchemist in action.
The cauldron employed for refining the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill was none other than the Sixth Rank Alchemy Dragon Cauldron, which Shenxi had unveiled earlier during the fierce battle against the ancient Flood Dragon above the Mysterious Sea.
Up until this point, the cauldron had been a closely guarded secret within the Dao Morale Sect, never made public.
Now that it stood exposed, there was no concern left, particularly as all those assembled were comrades of the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao.
Dustless True Monarch shaped hand seals with his palms, instantly triggering a profound rumble from the cauldron lid; then, the cauldron's handles lifted like a pair of True Dragons, raising the lid high.
Boom!
The very moment the furnace lid parted, a earth-shattering dragon roar exploded outward, while Sixth Rank Water Spirit Qi from the nearby Weak Water Pond coalesced into swirling clouds and mists that poured into the cauldron for absorption, dimly outlining a jet-black True Dragon twisting inside.
This happened because the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill incorporated the essence blood of the old Flood Dragon, and the concluding phase involved purging every Mysterious Flood Dragon imprint embedded in the elixir; failure to do so would leave the consumer branded upon ingestion, similar to Chen Mobai's plight.
Upon beholding this sight, Chen Mobai sank into contemplation.
Might this chance allow him to purge the imprint from his body?
By then, Dustless True Monarch had completely refined the Black Dragon silhouette within the furnace, which issued a woeful howl before completely disappearing.
Four shimmering pills materialized in plain view for all to see.
Ye Qing, who had remained silent throughout, fixed his gaze with intense eagerness. The Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, crafted using Mysterious Flood Dragon Essence Blood, was ideally suited for him.
"Everyone, choose one pill each, I will use the last one for trade with the Star Heaven Dao Sect." After finishing the ultimate procedure, Dustless True Monarch displayed the now-empty cauldron, then enclosed each of the four pills in separate jade bottles and laid them upon the grass pavilion's table.
The three other Divinity Transformation cultivators and Chen Mobai each politely selected a pill, picking the closest available one.
Ni Yuanzhong grabbed a pill and promptly passed it to Ye Qing right before everyone's eyes. He had once consumed a Communicating Holy Spirit Pill to force his way into Divinity Transformation amid tremendous strain; success came, yet he remained indebted to his junior brother Ye Qing, who had generously forfeited his turn. Handing over the pill to Ye Qing at this moment filled him with a deep sense of liberation and serenity.
"Everyone, our sect will be activating the Mountain Protection Array and sealing the mountain until Brother Ye emerges. Please use Message Talisman to contact us if anything arises."
Securing the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, Ni Yuanzhong bid everyone farewell, eager to hurry Ye Qing back to the sect for swift consumption and the Divinity Transformation breakthrough.
Ye Qing paused, words on the tip of his tongue; he had meant to invite Chen Mobai to Tongtian Peak once the pills were allocated.
"Very good indeed. Brother Ye’s Divinity Transformation will be crucial for both your sect and the Eastern Continent."
Chen Mobai perceived Ye Qing's intentions and gracefully refused the Tongtian Peak invitation with polite phrasing that deftly turned him away.
Dustless and Da Kong chimed in with their own well-wishes.
[Brother Chen, after my Divinity Transformation, I’ll come to discuss Dao with you.]
As the Nine Heavens Morality Sect delegation set off, Ye Qing sent a dedicated parting message to Chen Mobai, radiating certainty about his Divinity Transformation.
[Very well, eagerly awaiting the news.]
A smile played on Chen Mobai's lips as he replied.
"This time for Ye Qing’s Divinity Transformation, there shouldn’t be an attack by the White Bone Demon King or the Demon Clan True Spirit, right?"
After Shenxi saw Ni Yuanzhong and the rest off from the Weak Water Pond, Da Kong let out a soft chuckle.
"I doubt any Divinity Transformation would dare challenge our Eastern Continent Righteous Dao now, considering the remarkable reputation of the young friend, known across the Five Continents and Four Seas."
Dustless's warm smile and remarks brought proud expressions to the faces of all present, including Qing Nu and the Five Elements Sect disciples.
"Your praise is too kind, I’m merely proficient in magic duels; in other aspects, I should still learn more from you two."
Chen Mobai answered with humility, even as he inwardly sighed that his swelling fame would probably curtail future chances to shine, despite the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon he had at the ready—now without a worthy opponent to unleash it upon.
In the grass pavilion, the three Divinity Transformation cultivators conversed about the latest events across the Tianhe Realm’s Five Continents and Four Seas. Da Kong took the lead in speaking, given that Taixu MiaoMiao Palace maintained branches far and wide, along with unique channels connecting Divinity Transformation cultivators for swift intelligence.
"In the Southern State, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Mysterious Fire Sect forged a Fifth Rank Artifact, which I believe received aid from the Immortal in Flames..."
"In the Western State, a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator of unmatched power has recently surfaced, his Sword Dao Realm equally peerless, as he hunts disciples of Thunder Zen Temple and has slain three Nascent Soul cultivators; the Little Thunder Immortal flew into a rage, launching personal ambushes multiple times but failing to seize the enemy..."
"Chaos engulfed the Northern State after the White Bone Demon King’s demise; the northern Demon Path forces collapsed, with some slaughtered by the Star Temple and others driven out of the Northern State. Yet, word from our Northern State branch reveals the Mysterious Yin Cult has absorbed some remnants. Considering True Monarch Yuancheng’s nature, he could exploit this chance to purge the Mysterious Yin Cult from the Northern State, igniting a fierce confrontation between them..."
"Central State stays steady as ever; rumors say Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace unlocked a vault from the Generation Emperor, boosting the already opulent Yuwen Clan even more; True Lord Tianling pushed his cultivation forward, advancing deeper into the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation; a few years ago, Qing Wei Sword Sect hinted at Divinity Transformation breakthroughs, likely their Taoist Child or Saintess succeeding..."
