I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2626 - 1199: The Foundation of Rising Again (Part 2)

Evidently, this item holds immense importance for the Eastern Emperor Court.

While Chen Mobai contemplated this, the cauldron gripped by Jiang Zongheng suddenly radiated thick spiritual glow, mysteriously syncing with the small Dragon Capturing Tripod in his possession.

To his wide-eyed surprise, the pair of cauldrons lifted into the air on their own, rushing together for an impact.

Chen Mobai paused briefly yet chose not to halt the impending clash between the two tripods.

With a muffled boom, dazzling splendor erupted from both cauldrons, as dragon-like phantoms burst forth from inside, ferociously clashing like savage beasts in endless bites and swallows.

Chen Mobai was shocked to see the dragon phantom from his refined cauldron falling slightly behind.

Evidently, the cauldron from the Imperial Court Secret Realm, though untouched by refiners for ages, had absorbed endless nourishment from the local spirit vein, amassing far greater elemental power than the one left discarded in the Eastern Wilderness Mountains for countless years.

Besides, this cauldron meant little to Jiang Zongheng, who devoted most efforts to refining the Lifespan Artifact Tao Walker’s Ruler that Chen Mobai made for him.

Intrigued, Chen Mobai swiftly applied "The Union of Differences" to probe both cauldrons, grasping the truth at once.

The small Dragon Capturing Tripods were merging together.

As the merger advanced, a hidden force gradually emerged from the void's depths in this secret realm, seeping into the cauldron and empowering it further.

Through immersive observation, Chen Mobai instantly traced back along time's flow, beholding the creation of these two cauldrons.

Legends claimed that after the ancestral Dragon Capturing Tripod vanished from the Eastern Emperor Court, nine miniature replicas were forged in its image.

Yet Chen Mobai witnessed something else entirely.

These nine small Dragon Capturing Tripods had actually split off from a single grand cauldron long ago.

The massive cauldron, featuring four legs and two handles, emanated boundless aura while refining the raging essence of the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation; shadowy figures knelt before it, channeling arcane arts to unleash its full might.

Before long, a solid dragon shape emerged from the cauldron, morphing into a tiny tripod.

Eight more dragons of varied forms and hues followed, each condensing into a small Dragon Capturing Tripod.

Having expelled the eight smaller ones, the grand cauldron appeared drained, beginning to contract itself.

This marked the true genesis of the nine small Dragon Capturing Tripods.

They had originated by dividing from one supreme cauldron.

And that supreme vessel was undoubtedly the legendary Sixth Rank Peak Dragon Capturing Tripod.

But hadn't the Demon Clan True Spirit seized it?

Chen Mobai grew puzzled.

Over legends, he favored the visions revealed by "The Union of Differences".

Thus, in ancient times, despite the Eastern Emperor Court's faded might and the dynasty's looming fall, it had prepared measures for potential revival.

Everything in this secret realm—from the Emperor’s Scroll's cultivation methods to spirit vein layouts and the full heritage of Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal—was preserved here.

On top of that, reassembling the Dragon Capturing Tripod remained feasible.

If true, what role did the Demon Clan True Spirit play in assaulting the Eastern Emperor Court?

Doubts flooded Chen Mobai's mind.

In that cataclysmic clash, what vital loss doomed the Eastern Emperor Court to utter ruin, leaving this secret realm's legacy sealed away ever since?

Or had Dao Morale Sect's formidable barriers blocked those seeking to restore the court from gaining entry?

Not everyone possesses a Turtle Treasure, after all.

Even if Taixu Miaomiao Palace’s Divinity Transformation elder could infiltrate, Da Kong True Monarch would never aid the Eastern Emperor Court's rebirth—despite Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace's ties to Taixu Miaomiao Palace in Central State.

What if the Eastern Emperor Court arranged this fate deliberately?

Chen Mobai considered yet another angle.

But he dismissed it with a shake of his head.

By now, Jiang Zongheng’s cauldron faced total domination by the one excavated from this vast hall, and Chen Mobai sensed this as the Dragon Capturing Tripod's innate reformation, so he refrained from meddling.

Lacking Lifespan Artifact status, its consumption would barely affect Jiang Zongheng.

Under the intense gaze of master and disciple, a brilliant burst of spiritual light soon merged the two cauldrons, crafting one larger than its predecessors yet perfectly identical in form.

Yet, its quality had soared, now at intermediate Fourth Rank.

Once fused, Chen Mobai grasped the cauldron, and via "The Union of Differences", its Magic Artifact mysteries revealed themselves within his mind.

Indeed, uniting the nine small Dragon Capturing Tripods yields a complete Sixth Rank Dragon Capturing Tripod.

However, this fusion merely shapes the cauldron, lacking the vital Cauldron Spirit.

Prior to its division into nine small tripods, the Human Emperor had extracted the Cauldron Spirit.

Though "The Union of Differences" failed to pinpoint the "Cauldron Spirit"'s location for Chen Mobai, it sufficed for his purposes.

For once the nine Dragon Capturing Tripods combine, they instinctively detect the Cauldron Spirit, restoring their full might.

Such a peak Sixth Rank Magic Artifact proves quite alluring to Chen Mobai.

His mightiest treasure, the Primordial Clock, stands only at Superior Sixth Rank.

Without the advantage of attribute suppression, he might have failed to overpower that peak Sixth Rank Sea Suppressing Bead back then.

Scouring the world to gather the nine scattered small Dragon Capturing Tripods remains utterly beyond Chen Mobai.

Time for his own Cultivation already falls short.

His disciple can manage that task.

"Disciple, these two Dragon Capturing Tripods have fused..."

Having detailed the matter to Jiang Zongheng, Chen Mobai passed the cauldron into his disciple's eager, joyful hands.

"Since you plan to switch your cultivation to the Emperor’s Scroll later, you share an affinity with this cauldron. Seize any opportunity to hunt the remaining seven. Should you reassemble them all, this Sixth Rank Magic Artifact might acknowledge you."

"Thank you, Master!"

Jiang Zongheng accepted the cauldron reverently with both hands. He'd claimed almost every reward from this Imperial Court Secret Realm, filled with gratitude that Chen Mobai was his master.

By local traditions, inheriting a scroll of the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal heritage counts as an immense honor for any disciple.

"Upon division, most of the Dragon Capturing Tripod's power scattered into this secret realm, so reassembly must occur here. Moreover, post-fusion, the sacramental refinement mantra has altered..."

Chen Mobai shared with Jiang Zongheng the revelations from "The Union of Differences".

Jiang Zongheng nodded solemnly, etching every word from Chen Mobai into his memory.

With all Eastern Emperor Court remnants cleared from the secret realm, Chen Mobai led a satisfied Jiang Zongheng back to the Eastern Wilderness.

"Henceforth, prioritize your Cultivation and strive for Nascent Soul first. Switching to the Emperor’s Scroll afterward won't be late. By my calculations, the Eastern Wilderness dragon pulse will have gained spirituality then. Perfectly, I require time to ready your Six Dragon Essence Blood."

Within Northern Abyss City's grand hall, Chen Mobai advised Jiang Zongheng on his Cultivation path ahead, as the disciple attended with deep respect.

"Thank you, Master. I'll seek Brother E now."

Jiang Zongheng's storage bag contained the Eastern Emperor Court's supreme heritage knowledge, destined for the Five Elements Sect. Yet, to dodge scrutiny from Dao Morale Sect and rivals, he must erase its traces step by step.

Above all, the vast Spirit Stone Mine demanded prior inspection, lest the Eastern Emperor Court had depleted it entirely!

Chen Mobai left such minor affairs to Jiang Zongheng and E Yun.

After lingering in Northern Abyss City awhile, Chen Mobai awaited Zhang Pankong's arrival.

Leveraging Taixu Miaomiao Palace's vast networks, Zhang Pankong procured the final minerals for elevating the All-things Altruistic Cauldron to Rank-5, securing over a dozen extra varieties.

Chen Mobai received them gratefully, rewarding with ample Enlightenment Tea.

Business concluded, Chen Mobai prepared to haste to Wandering Mountain and safeguard his treasured disciple Zhuo Ming's Nascent Soul breakthrough, yet Zhang Pankong hesitated, nursing his tea without departing.
