Chen Mobai defeats Dark Vortex with the Purple Electric Sword and the Power of Destruction. He then prevents Dark Vortex's Great Dao from returning to the heavens, planning to condense it into a Spirit Vein for the Immortal Gate. The Spiritual Venerable arrives, shocked by Chen Mobai's mastery of the Purple Cloud Palace and its status as an Innate Supreme Treasure. Chen Mobai also reveals his connection to the Taixu Ancestor. Evergreen Ancestor begs for mercy but is killed by the Spiritual Venerable. Chen Mobai gives Evergreen Ancestor's Huangzhong Pear seed to Wenren Xuewei, solidifying his support for her. He then returns the Beiming Law Domain to the Spiritual Venerable and turns his attention to the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.

This Mysterious Yellow Pagoda is evidently of the innate treasure level too.

However, because it is damaged, it was suppressed by the Purple Cloud Palace in a frontal confrontation.

Chen Mobai feels fortunate that he possesses the Saintly Virtue Great Dao and has good luck; if the Dark Vortex had a complete innate treasure, there’s no way he could have killed him today.

After this battle, his somewhat inflated mindset following the Cultivating Void was once again brought back to caution.

Dark Vortex has the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda; perhaps others in the Purple Cloud Universe’s Cultivating Void have complete innate magical artifacts. Although Chen Mobai’s Purple Cloud Palace is a Saintly Virtue Treasure, it is not adept at killing. Should he encounter others in Cultivating Void in the future, he should avoid fighting unless absolutely necessary.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai already had a look at the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda inside and out.

Although only the tip of the pagoda remains, judging by the broken edge, it appeared to have been forcibly torn apart, extremely crude, with mysterious scripture engravings both inside and outside the pagoda, as if expounding the profound truths of the Great Dao.

At this moment, the Spiritual Venerable had already refined her Law Domain, cleaned it up once, and discarded anything that wasn’t hers.

Among them, a wooden scripture book caught her attention. After reading it, she showed an expression of surprise and called Chen Mobai over to take a look: "Pure Yang, I found this in the Beiming Law Domain, and it should be that person’s inherited scripture."

As soon as Chen Mobai heard this, he immediately perused it.

This scripture is titled "Withering Scripture," with the first half detailing specific methods for practicing the Great Dao, and the second half expounding upon the concept of opposites and cycles, known as "Withering."

And used to describe the concept of Withering were the innate Great Daos of Killing Destiny and Merit.

Seeing this, Chen Mobai knew that this was Brother Ci Bei’s Pure Yang Dao.

This Mysterious Yellow Pagoda represents the Merit, one of the Five Virtues!

But soon, he also considered that the Generation Emperor of the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm also attained the Merit Dao, yet countered the Destiny Dao, proving Pure Yang.

After all, which is more opposed to Merit: Killing Destiny or Destiny?

With Chen Mobai’s current realm, he certainly cannot determine who is right or wrong.

After all, both the Generation Emperor and Ci Bei are Pure Yang.

This signifies that both paths can be viable; the distinction might lie in who can advance further, to witness the Ninth Rank Creation.

Recalling the Generation Emperor of the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm, who always sought a successor to step down, Chen Mobai speculated that Brother Ci Bei’s path might be the correct one.

Nonetheless, for Chen Mobai, this mattered little.

After all, his path was already established, having set his course upon entering the Saintly Virtue Great Dao, only able to follow the Pure Yang Scroll taught by the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable to the end.

[I still don’t understand why this Mysterious Yellow Pagoda broke, did Brother Ci Bei encounter a formidable enemy?]

Chen Mobai pondered as he examined the damaged Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.

Previously, the Artifact Spirit of the Purple Cloud Palace mentioned that many Pure Yang comrades had left this universe along with Senior Sister Tianhai; it is unknowable if Brother Ci Bei was among them?

If not, with Ci Bei’s power, even encountering the Demon Lord might not result in defeat, let alone damage to an innate treasure.

If it wasn’t a magic duel, perhaps when Ci Bei was proving the Ninth Rank Creation, he encountered a calamity, causing the innate Merit Yellow Pagoda to fail to protect him.

After all, the Artifact Spirit of the Purple Cloud Palace mentioned that Turtle Spirit Saint Mother failed to prove Ninth Rank Creation, directly dying and disappearing along with one of the Four Palaces, the Mystic Palace.

But these are all conjectures; only the Taixu Ancestor might know the truth of this universe.

Reflecting on this, Chen Mobai respectfully retracted the Purple Cloud Palace; had it not been for this innate treasure today, he considered that he would likely have lost to Dark Vortex, the peak of Cultivating Void.

Before retrieving it, Chen Mobai did not forget to utilize the Purple Cloud Palace to press the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda into his Law Domain, planning to study it closely when he had the chance.

But once the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda entered the Law Domain, he noticed something amiss.

The situation mirrored that of the Ancestor Black Dragon Skeleton before; the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda slightly trembled, sending out rings of Golden Wheels; the Law Domain simply couldn’t bear it, beginning to shake violently, causing the Saintly Virtue Dao power of Chen Mobai to be rapidly depleted.

Luckily, he had already reached Cultivating Void; if he were still at the Divinity Transformation stage, his Law Domain would have been drained instantaneously.

Is this the innate treasure!

Even in its damaged state, it remains impossible for ordinary Law Domains to accommodate.

In a mindful moment, Chen Mobai promptly expelled the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda from his Law Domain.

Indeed, once back in the Purple Cloud Universe, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda regained stability, the merit golden wheels on the tip of the pagoda receding into calm.

Seeing this, Chen Mobai could not help but slightly furrow his brow.

After returning to report good news in the Tianhe Realm, he had attempted to bring the Purple Cloud Palace along but discovered it was simply infeasible; he speculated it was due to the overwhelming power contained within the Purple Cloud Palace, making Turtle Treasure unable to transport it.

After all, it equates to transporting the entire innate Saintly Virtue Great Dao of the Purple Cloud Universe to the Tianhe Realm.

Leaving aside how this universe might fare without an innate Great Dao, even if Turtle Treasure could manage it, it might conflict with the existing master of the Saintly Virtue Great Dao, the Thousand-Autumn Saint of the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm.

But the Saintly Virtue imprint condensed by the Purple Cloud Palace posed no issue.

Of course, Chen Mobai had not yet harnessed the power of the Purple Cloud Palace in the Tianhe Realm, unaware of what might transpire upon utilizing this force.

Anyway, he had already decided that if confronted by overpowering figures in this universe he couldn’t handle, he would employ the strength of the Purple Cloud Palace; as for the Tianhe Realm, the Taixu Measuring Sky Ruler’s imprint will be used.
