I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2664 - 1223: Turtle Spirit Saint Mother
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Within the vast expanse of the Tianhe Realm, which stands as the premier continent among the Five Continents and Four Seas, lies the Heaven and Sea.
In the very inception of the Tianhe Realm, a boundless ocean was birthed from the primordial Void. It was after the Water Mother fashioned this world that she imbued the ancient, sprawling sea with her unique legacy, thus giving rise to the Sky Sea Jellyfish Palace.
Given that the Sixth Senior Sister carries the designation of "Heaven and Sea," Chen Mobai felt a strong conviction that the nascent Universe his senior brothers and sisters from the Purple Cloud Palace aimed to bring into existence that very day was, in fact, the Tianhe Realm he had traversed for over two centuries.
Furthermore, the Five Great Scriptures he acquired from the Patching Heaven Lineage back then were penned under the title Heaven and Sea. These scriptures elucidated the evolution of the Innate Five Great prior to the Universe's creation and the genesis of all existence. It therefore seemed self-evident that they represented Senior Sister Tianhai's personal experiences and insights in the act of opening a new Universe.
This implied that the endeavor to establish a new Universe, which engaged the contemplation of all the Purple Cloud Palace sages at this moment, was destined for future success.
However, why did the Water Mother and the other primordial beings subsequently vanish without a trace?
Could it have been a consequence of the Mystic Palace's destruction?
A surge of intense emotion coursed through Chen Mobai, yet outwardly, he maintained an appearance of profound calmness, diligently committing every utterance from the individuals seated in the front row to memory.
Yielding to Yi Xing's counsel, Reincarnation let out a cold snort and ceased his protests.
Nevertheless, in Chen Mobai's assessment, the primary factor was Senior Sister Tianhai's superior cultivation level.
Senior Sister Tianhai had just declared that only upon attaining the Pure Yang Realm could one embark on the fusion of the Three Thousand Great Dao to achieve the Creation Realm. Her audacity in initiating the creation of a new Universe and deriving the Three Thousand Great Dao unequivocally positioned her at the Eighth Rank of the Pure Yang Realm.
Despite Reincarnation's mastery over the Innate Life and Death Great Dao and his possession of an Innate Treasure, the Book of Life and Death, a disparity of an entire Great Realm was not something an Eighth Rank Supreme Treasure could compensate for.
Moreover, Senior Sister Tianhai held the Gate of Taixu in her possession. Given her ability to open a new Universe, it was clear she had already fully refined this artifact.
From this perspective, the individuals occupying the front row of the Purple Cloud Palace—Eldest Senior Brother Yi Xing, Second Senior Brother Ci Bei, and Sixth Senior Sister Tianhai—were all established at the Eighth Rank of the Pure Yang Realm.
Third Senior Brother Reincarnation, conversely, was positioned at the Seventh Rank of the Unity Realm.
What, then, was the cultivation status of Ancestor Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix, seated on the fourth and fifth cushions respectively?
Chen Mobai directed his gaze towards these two Saint Venerables, who had remained silent since the proceedings began.
Based on intelligence previously extracted from Xu Sijiu, apart from the few Pure Yang cultivators within the Central Dojo, the Saint Venerables of the Four Palaces were also affirmed to be in the Pure Yang Realm.
This indicated that both Ancestor Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix were undoubtedly at the Pure Yang stage at this present moment.
However, this event unfolded within Dan Ding's memories, making it impossible for him to ascertain their specific rank—whether Seventh or Eighth Rank—at this particular juncture.
By this deduction, could Senior Sister Tianhai be recognized as the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother of the Mystic Palace?
And what was the provenance of that particular Saint Venerable from the White Palace?
It was remarkable to consider that she was not an offshoot of their Purple Cloud Palace—truly a prodigy nurtured from obscurity.
Chen Mobai had witnessed Ancestor Dragon's original form during the initial two lessons: a majestic nine-headed dragon. Today, however, he presented himself in human guise. Adorning his forehead were a pair of horns, and cascading down his back were eight thick braids of varying colors. A closer inspection revealed these to be Ancestor Dragon's other eight heads, some with eyes closed, others open, their gazes subtly surveying the diverse areas of the Purple Cloud Palace.
One particular jade-white dragon head fortuitously met Chen Mobai's gaze, prompting an immediate, amiable smile from the latter.
Acknowledging him as a fellow disciple of the Purple Cloud Palace, the jade-white dragon head returned a slight nod.
Only after the dragon head's gaze shifted away did Chen Mobai's rapidly beating heart gradually subside.
He understood that within the sanctuary of the Purple Cloud Palace, no one would dare to lay a hand on him. Yet, confronting such immense power still induced a profound sense of nervousness within him.
Nevertheless, after participating in this event, he could reasonably consider himself someone who had experienced a truly monumental occasion, engaging in discourse on vital matters alongside various Great Powers of the Pure Yang and Harmonization realms.
Considering this, could he now aptly claim the title of one of the Great World Builders of the Tianhe Realm?
After meeting the gaze of one of Ancestor Dragon’s heads, Chen Mobai’s resolve strengthened, and he then turned his attention to Heavenly Phoenix.
She, too, had assumed a human form, adorned in a Feng Crown Xiatuo. Her hair was as dark as ink, her form tall and willowy; upon her exquisitely oval face, a pair of narrow phoenix eyes were partially closed, as if her spirit was lost in a realm far beyond this one.
Chen Mobai’s own eyes, as they swept over, undeniably caught her notice, and she was compelled to open those phoenix eyes.
The instant their gazes locked, Chen Mobai offered a smile and a nod.
Heavenly Phoenix, upon seeing him, however, furrowed her brows, a flicker of distaste crossing her features, before she deliberately closed her eyes once more.
This turn of events left Chen Mobai completely bewildered.
Could Dan Ding and Heavenly Phoenix harbor some ancient animosity?
Recalling that Dan Ding Taoist cultivated the Nirvana Great Dao, Chen Mobai grew increasingly convinced that a hidden narrative existed, one unknown to him.
And precisely as his thoughts churned, the esteemed Pure Yang figures in the front row concluded their discussions.
"Those whose Realm has ascended to Harmonization or higher, accompany me to the edge of the Universe to breach the void Chaos. All junior brothers and sisters who have yet to achieve Harmonization, await my summons. When your contribution of the Power of the Great Dao is required, Gui Ling will convey the message."
Sixth Senior Sister Tianhai delivered this final pronouncement, and upon hearing it, Chen Mobai’s eyes widened anew.
Could one of the Four Directions Venerable Sage, the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother, possess an alternate identity?
Then, to Chen Mobai’s utter astonishment, the turtle seated upon the seventh cushion raised a claw and gestured towards everyone.
She was, in fact, the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother!?
Chen Mobai’s mind was in complete disarray at this revelation.
Xu Sijiu had explicitly detailed that the demise of the Mystic Palace was precipitated by the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother’s advancement to Ninth Rank Creation.
Yet, here she was, in the present moment, a mere turtle beneath Senior Sister Tianhai, bearing the Gate of Taixu upon her shell.
