I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2729 - 1257: The Dragon Pulse Births Spirituality (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
The very first wisp of Spirituality to be born within the Dragon Pulse was refined by Jiang Zongheng, transforming it into the Spirituality of his Nascent Soul.
A dragon's roar, imperceptible to mortals, echoed from the depths of the earth. Yet, thanks to Chen Mobai’s Heavenly Blessing and Response Earth Spirit, it was rendered strikingly clear, causing even his Divine Sense to tremble slightly on a few occasions.
This was the Dragon Pulse of the Eastern Wilderness. Sensing Jiang Zongheng's imminent breakthrough, it continuously channeled the purest Qi from the surrounding Three Domains' Dragon Pulses of the Eastern Wilderness into him.
"Oh?" Dustless True Monarch, perceiving this through the Xuanji Instrument of Heaven and Earth, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Is someone taking this opportunity to cultivate the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture?"
Observing Dustless True Monarch's suddenly sharp gaze, Chen Mobai mused that if this old fellow didn't know his place, he might just have to spar with him and make him keep quiet about witnessing this scene.
Strange, why is my luck so terrible today?
Precisely as the Dragon Pulse birthed Spirituality, Dustless True Monarch arrived. He happened upon Jiang Zongheng's Nascent Soul Formation, and coincidentally, the latter had chosen the Zhao Country Capital, causing the Dragon Pulse to surge into his body.
Throughout the entire Tianhe Realm, the Six Dragons Imperial Heaven Scripture was the most renowned for refining and borrowing the power of the Dragon Pulse.
At this crucial moment, Dustless True Monarch could no longer remain seated.
The Dao Morale Sect's act of beheading the Dragon was precisely to prevent anyone from cultivating the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture.
Could it be that the Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace had secretly harbored Yuwen Baozhi within the Eastern Wilderness?
With this thought, Dustless True Monarch immediately rose, transforming into an Escaping Light and streaking towards the Zhao Country Capital.
Chen Mobai couldn't possibly obstruct him and could only follow suit. However, a strand of firelight detached from the back of his head, lingering in place. While his True Body soared alongside Dustless True Monarch, his Second Primeval Spirit employed Void Teleportation, reaching the destination with even greater speed.
Jiang Zongheng was currently in the critical phase of breaking through to Nascent Soul. Therefore, Chen Mobai could not utilize his Law Domain to move him. Instead, he summoned the Sixth Rank Haotian Mirror, using this Magic Artifact to envelop him. Subsequently, he activated the Sixth Rank Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation of the Eastern Wilderness, incorporating the Dragon Pulse that had already given birth to Spirituality, intending to use the Formation's power for an added layer of concealment.
However, during this process, Chen Mobai made a surprising discovery.
Within the Dragon Pulse, another aggregated energy body was concealed, possessing a Qi resonance remarkably close to his Six-Dragon Incarnation.
This implied that someone else was indeed utilizing the Eastern Wilderness Dragon Vein to cultivate the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture!
Who could it be?
Upon realizing this, Chen Mobai swept his Divine Sense through the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation and was soon met with pleasant surprise.
This situation was perfect for taking the blame. After all, he had already prepared himself for Jiang Zongheng's cultivation of the Emperor's Scroll to be exposed and was ready to confront Dustless True Monarch.
Now, however, a flawless pretext and justification had presented themselves.
Chen Mobai's expression instantly eased.
At that very moment, two Divinity Transformation Spiritual Lights had already descended upon the Zhao Country Capital.
Dustless True Monarch's Divine Sense surged downwards with great intensity, and swiftly, beneath the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, he detected a Corpse Cultivator lurking within a large tomb in the outskirts.
"Such audacity! Someone actually dares to employ the Corpse Disintegration Method to cultivate the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture. Which fiend of the Demon Path is this!"
Having uncovered the "truth," Dustless True Monarch's anger flared. With a sweep of his expansive sleeve, the large tomb in the suburbs began to crack layer by layer, revealing a mysterious coffin buried deep beneath the earth.
Before the coffin rested a Five-Colored Lotus Lamp, upon which a faint flame flickered, seemingly guiding departed souls home.
As the grand tomb was unearthed, a chilling aura, characteristic of the Netherworld Springs, billowed up from the earth's depths and was absorbed by the coffin. It subtly coalesced into the phantom of a pitch-black Nether Dragon. Two scarlet pupils ignited, bearing a cruel and ferocious gaze as they fixed upon the two Divinity Transformations in the sky.
"Hmph, putting on airs with phantoms and gods."
Before Dustless True Monarch could make a move, Chen Mobai had already snorted coldly. With a wave of his right hand, a golden Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder smashed straight down.
Boom!
The Black Dragon incarnation that seemed to come from the Netherworld roared toward the sky and rushed up into midair, planning to display the Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture it had bitterly cultivated for over a hundred years. Yet at the instant it came into contact with the Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder, it collapsed into billowing black Qi.
This was Eastern Wilderness Dragon Vein Qi, so it could continue to exist under the power of the Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder. Besides this, however, more than half was Netherworld Energy, Huangquan corpse Qi, and the like, which were like ice and snow falling into Flames, melted away without the slightest resistance.
A loud bang resounded!
The golden Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder directly smashed into the coffin, blowing apart this Corpse Nourishment Artifact that had been reinforced with who knew how many Demon Path Restrictions.
A Golden Armored Zombie that had already been nurtured to Third Rank Peak and was in the midst of shedding into a Jade corpse fell into the sight of Chen Mobai and Dustless True Monarch.
Compared to ordinary Cultivators, this corpse could be called powerful.
But before the might of Divinity Transformation, it was like an ant.
Chen Mobai’s Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder had already pierced through this corpse. Just as he was about to turn it into nothingness, he suddenly recalled the Rank-5 Golden Armored Celestial—this could serve as a substitute raw material. He could not help but condense his Divine Sense and rein in the Thunder’s power, preserving the integrity of this corpse.
At this moment, however, a pitch-black lotus mark lit up on the corpse’s glabella, and in the blink of an eye it transformed into a wisp of black Qi that darted out, attempting to flee toward the horizon.
Yet with a light turn of the Xuanji Instrument of Heaven and Earth in Dustless True Monarch’s hand, this piece of heaven and earth had already been sealed.
The black Qi seemed to crash into an invisible wall of air and was directly knocked back into its original form, turning into a tall, square-faced Black-Robed Cultivator.
"A thief of the Hua Shen Demon Sect; no wonder he was able to infiltrate the Five Elements Sect’s core region to raise corpses!"
At the instant he saw the pitch-black lotus mark, Dustless True Monarch already understood "everything". With a cold laugh, he spat out a mouthful of Dan Fire. Just as Mou Xiaotian was about to open his mouth to say something, a golden Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder, moving after but arriving first, reduced him to nothingness.
"Damn Magic Daoist Monk, such arrogance—he never put me in his eyes at all!"
After annihilating Mou Xiaotian, Chen Mobai’s face was full of rage, as if he were furious that the Hua Shen Demon Sect had infiltrated his own territory.
"No need to be anxious, little friend. The Hua Shen Demon Sect is exactly like this. In the future, just plant more Pure Bamboo."
As Dustless True Monarch spoke, he also glanced at the corpse that, after being pierced through by Chen Mobai’s Demon Extinguishing Divine Thunder, now had its Spiritual Sense annihilated and all Restrictions on it vanished.
Within the corpse’s bones and skin sack, there was a surging Dragon Vein Power, almost turning flesh, skin, and bone into Jade.
"Not bad. It was precisely this corpse that drew in the Dragon Vein Spirit, intending to borrow this to shed into a Rank-4 Jade corpse, and even lay the foundation for advancing to a Rank-5 Flying Night Fiend."
After completing his inspection, Dustless True Monarch arrived at the truth.
And at the same time, Chen Mobai’s Second Primeval Spirit also made a move, using the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation to cut off the connection between Jiang Zongheng and the Eastern Wilderness Dragon Vein.
"I also have you to thank, Senior. Otherwise, with such a calamity hidden in the core of the Eastern Wilderness, once I Ascend in the future, the Five Elements Sect would likely suffer a great tribulation." Chen Mobai immediately went with the flow, pushing all the matters onto this Devil Cultivator’s head.
"There are murals all around this large tomb. They should be the origin of this corpse. He was a Mortal Realm Emperor, yet he was deceived by a Devil Cultivator like this and turned into a Corpse Cultivation Puppet raised by him." Dustless True Monarch swept his Divine Sense, having already examined every corner of the large tomb inside and out. He knew that this corpse was the founding Emperor of Zhao Country, the first generation world-ruler of the Eastern Wilderness.
"The fault also lies with me. After dispatching disciples to the mortal realm to find a ruler to unite the Eastern Wilderness, I turned my attention solely to my own cultivation, neglecting mortal affairs. I never imagined I would nearly invite a catastrophe." Chen Mobai let out a sigh. He was, of course, aware of King Zhao; in the annals of the Eastern Wilderness, he was recognized as a legendary emperor.
Who could have predicted that the allure of eternal life would lead him down such a perilous path?
"What you just encountered was merely a Demonic Thought from the Hua Shen Demon Sect. Their true form may still be lurking somewhere within the Eastern Wilderness. You must remain vigilant, young friend," Dustless True Monarch cautioned him.
"One day, I shall witness the complete annihilation of the Hua Shen Demon Sect from this world!" Chen Mobai declared with icy resolve.
