I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2733 - 1259: Heavenly Calamity Frost Disaster Saber (Part 2)

With the culmination of these five distinct cultivation techniques, the Five Elements Sect's legacy could finally be considered complete and harmoniously structured.

Upon grasping this knowledge, Hong He wasted no time, initiating a switch in his cultivation practices with the fervent desire to return to the righteous path.

Du Mengyun, upon hearing this news, was seized by palpable anxiety.

Should Hong He revert to the righteous path, she would find herself as the solitary devil cultivator remaining.

She harbored the fear that should the Demon Path of the Eastern Continent ever stir up trouble and incur the wrath of Chen Mobai, his anger might very well be directed at her.

Without Hong He to serve as a convenient scapegoat, Chen Mobai might eliminate her without a second thought.

To avert such a dire fate, Du Mengyun promptly transmitted the Deity Transformation Inheritance of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect to Hong He, asserting that he possessed a natural aptitude for demonic cultivation techniques and should continue upon the Demon Path, potentially even ascending to the leadership of the Eastern Continent's Demon Path.

Having received the inheritance from the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, Hong He found himself genuinely wavering.

After all, the Yuan Ming technique only permitted cultivation up to the complete Nascent Soul stage. The path to Divinity Transformation, a secret whispered only among the highest echelons of the Five Elements Sect, was conspicuously absent from the teachings of Yue Zutao and the others.

Ultimately, the allure of possibly attaining Divinity Transformation proved too strong for Hong He to resist, and he commenced practicing the techniques of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect.

Following this pivotal decision, the dynamic between Hong He and Du Mengyun deepened considerably.

Wen Buyue had uncovered intelligence regarding a demonic treasure, and after careful deliberation, Du Mengyun resolved to summon Hong He for a consultation.

Hong He possessed established connections within the Five Elements Sect. Though direct contact with the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor was beyond his reach, he could at least communicate with the acting sect leader in Northern Abyss City, thereby relaying the crucial message.

However, undertaking such a task would undoubtedly forfeit any claim she might have had to a share of the demonic treasure.

This realization plunged Du Mengyun into a state of indecision.

The Outer Heaven Demon Treasure, identified as the "Heavenly Calamity Frost Disaster Saber," was a potent Magic Artifact belonging to an extraterrestrial Ancient Demon revered by the Jade Mirror Demon Sect. Its properties were perfectly aligned with their lineage's cultivation techniques. Securing this artifact would undoubtedly clarify the enigmatic Blood God path within the Jade Mirror Demon Sect.

Yet, the pursuit of the Blood God path necessitated becoming subservient to that Ancient Demon, effectively transforming into its puppet.

Consequently, if Wen Buyue aimed to usurp Du Mengyun's foundation and achieve perfection in Divinity Transformation, she could fully manifest the "Blood Transformation Sky Demon," achieving parity with the Ancient Demon and perhaps even orchestrating a reversal of fortunes in the future to absorb the Ancient Demon, thereby gaining absolute dominion over the entire Demon Path.

Should Wen Buyue meet his demise at the hands of Chen Mobai, the "Heavenly Calamity Frost Disaster Saber" would inevitably become the property of the Five Elements Sect, rendering it forever beyond her grasp.

"What are your prospects of victory if you were to confront Wen Buyue?"

Upon Hong He's arrival, his wife, having apprised him of every detail, posed this direct question.

"Without his demonic treasure, utilizing the few Great Divine Skills I've honed over the years, even if I cannot match him, I should be capable of defending myself. However, the Heavenly Calamity Frost Disaster Saber is a Sixth Rank Peak demonic treasure. If Wen Buyue were to expend his essence blood to forcibly activate it, I would be powerless to intervene," Du Mengyun responded, a hint of a bitter smile gracing her lips.

She possessed the capability to employ the Hua Shen Demon Sect's techniques, abandoning Sun Huangling's physical form to escape. However, due to the presence of a Soul Lantern within the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, this tactic would prove futile against Wen Buyue, who would instantly discern that she had not truly perished.

Furthermore, such an action would lead to the immediate exposure of her cultivation of the Incarnation Demon Technique, a transgression universally condemned across the Five Continents and Four Seas. Should Chen Mobai discover this, her ability to remain even within the Five Elements Sect would be irrevocably compromised.

"In that case, it would be prudent to inform Chen Laozu," Hong He articulated his suggestion.

"Then, I entrust this matter to your care," Du Mengyun, feigning contemplation after hearing Hong He's counsel, reluctantly voiced her agreement.

"I shall endeavor to do my utmost," Hong He replied with a sigh, subsequently retrieving a Message Talisman to dispatch it.

Approximately one hour later, a radiant light emanated from the Teleportation Array within Yao Guang Immortal City, signaling the arrival of Song Huangdae.

Hong He promptly proceeded to extend his welcome.

"Is the intelligence reliable?" Song Huangdae inquired, his expression grave, as he, holding a position of responsibility for intelligence within the Five Elements Sect, possessed direct communication channels with Chen Mobai.

"It was my wife who informed me. I believe once you notify Laozu, he will be able to make a judgment," Hong He offered no guarantee but felt the news about the Heavenly Calamity Frost Disaster Saber was too significant to withhold from Chen Mobai, regardless of its truthfulness.

"I understand, but this is a weighty matter. I shall need to confer with Master and the acting sect leader upon my return," Song Huangdae, though a disciple from the Xiao Nanshan lineage, lacked a strong backing. Consequently, he had dedicated himself to diligent cultivation over the years. Despite possessing a Heavenly Communication Device that allowed direct contact with Chen Mobai, he hesitated to overstep his bounds.

Such a monumental achievement, he mused, would be better reported by Liu Wenbo or E Yun.

"Very well. My wife and I shall await True Person Song’s response in Yao Guang Immortal City," Hong He stated, maintaining a respectful demeanor despite Song Huangdae technically being his junior.

He often regretted succumbing to temptation, falling to the Demon Path for the sake of fleeting cultivation advancement.

Had he remained within the Five Elements Sect, even without reaching the Nascent Soul stage, he would undoubtedly be a prominent figure among Core Formation cultivators.

Alas, he could only wallow in regret now.

Following Song Huangdae’s departure, Hong He retreated to the rear hall, where he found Du Mengyun seated on a wooden chair, her eyes shut tight.

Repeated calls from Hong He went unanswered, leaving Du Mengyun seemingly immobile, like a stone statue.

This inexplicable stillness caused his brow to furrow, his mind clouded with uncertainty.

She appeared to be in a meditative trance, yet the trust between them as a couple did not extend to such a profound level.

However, Hong He harbored no intention of using this moment to his advantage against Du Mengyun. He erected a Water Light Shield enchantment, enclosing the meditating Du Mengyun, and turned to depart. Suddenly, a jet-black lotus flower materialized upon her smooth, jade-like forehead.

Abruptly, Du Mengyun’s eyes snapped open, her face contorted with sheer terror.

"You too have been cultivating the Incarnation Demon Technique!" Hong He exclaimed, his voice thick with shock.

To discern a practitioner of the Incarnation Demon Technique, beyond the Pure Bamboo method, one could observe the blooming of their heart demon. The appearance of this dark lotus was the unmistakable sign.

Yet, if one’s cultivation reached the pinnacle of the Central Demon Lord realm, where the demon technique attained supreme mastery, devoid of any worldly traces, phenomena such as Du Mengyun's would not manifest.

"This is dire! Hurry, pack your things and let us flee this place at once!" Du Mengyun scrambled to her feet, her entire body trembling, and urged Hong He with a panicked cry.

"What is amiss?" Hong He inquired, his expression laced with confusion. They had dedicated considerable effort to nurturing the Sun family, elevating it to become the foremost clan among the Five Elements Sect’s affiliated powers.

Should they abandon this life, where would they find such prosperity?

Any desired elixir could be procured with a mere word, prompting a disciple to journey to Northern Abyss City and retrieve it.

"Moments ago, the Incarnation Demon Technique spiraled out of control. My consciousness felt as though it were being dragged into an inky abyss, with all my memories flashing uncontrollably before my eyes like a swiftly turning lantern. Such a predicament could only signify the emergence of a more potent practitioner of this technique, one who has seized control of my heart demon."

"I am currently in the Nascent Soul Realm. To so effortlessly subjugate my heart demon would require an individual at least a Great Realm superior, indicating a Divinity Transformation master."

"And concerning Divinity Transformation masters of the Hua Shen Demon Sect, to my knowledge, only one such individual exists: the Master of the Central Demonic Path."

Drenched in cold sweat, Du Mengyun rapidly conveyed the gravity of the situation to Hong He.

"What is the approximate range of control for the Incarnation Demon Technique’s superior to inferior influence?" Hong He asked, his shock tempered by a newfound calm as he listened to Du Mengyun’s account.

"It must extend at least across the East Continent. Based on my recent experience, I estimate the controller to be within or in close proximity to the Five Elements Sect," Du Mengyun offered her estimation, acknowledging her lack of firsthand experience with the Master of the Central Demonic Path.

"This critical development must be communicated to Chen Laozu," Hong He declared, his gaze fixed on Du Mengyun as she began to meticulously organize the Sun family's treasure vault.

"No! If my cultivation of the Incarnation Demon Technique is again scrutinized by the Master of the Central Demonic Path, he will instantly discern my betrayal and obliterate my Divine Sense," Du Mengyun vehemently protested, shaking her head. Disregarding Hong He's counsel, she seized a substantial Storage Bag, transforming into a streak of spiritual light before swiftly departing Yao Guang Immortal City, setting her course towards the Ruins.
