I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 3008 - 1410:

Faced with this question, Chen Feng Immortal Official hesitated, then sighed and shook his head: "Young friend, I am merely a freelance Immortal Official. Whether it’s the Jellyfish Palace behind you or Purple Cloud Palace, both are places not to be offended."

Chen Mobai, upon hearing this, merely smiled faintly, reached into his sleeve, and retrieved a Command Token, gently placing it beside the one belonging to Xuansu Heavenly Monarch on the tea table.

Seeing this, Chen Feng Immortal Official’s eyes almost popped out.

His hands trembled slightly, as he verified Kongming Heavenly Monarch’s Command Token several times, his gaze towards Chen Mobai completely changed.

This era saw the Void Department and Water Department supporting the Mi Luo Palace.

Meaning that all celestial soldiers and generals in Mi Luo Heaven were under the command of these two departments.

And now, Chen Mobai had presented the Command Tokens of both Xuansu and Kongming, two Heavenly Monarchs, causing Chen Feng, who had mingled in Mi Luo Palace for thousands of years, to inevitably associate.

[Could it be that the lineage of Heavenly Empress plans to counterattack, setting up Jionghua Daoist Monarch’s Purple Cloud Palace lineage for a takeover?]

Thinking of this, a bitter expression swept across Chen Feng’s old face.

He merely desired a peaceful retirement, choosing the True Immortal Pool which might not open even once in a millennium for his old age.

But unbeknownst to him, he remained relentlessly drawn into the most terrible battle for succession.

"If revealing who entered the True Immortal Pool means breaking the rules, I wouldn’t make things difficult for the senior."

After presenting the Command Tokens of the two Heavenly Monarchs, Chen Mobai said this as if he wished to inquire, yet did not intend to drive anyone to their death.

"Not entirely," Chen Feng Immortal Official said, seeing the topic was the too profound Tai Chu Spiritual Vein, clarified, "Before filing in Tai Chu Hall, the True Immortal Pool’s details are announced publicly in the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm so that all immortals know." At this point, Chen Feng Immortal Official decided no longer to conceal, "It was a cultivator from Purple Cloud Palace in the Lower Realm, brought here by Immortal Monarch Kang Yu from the Dragon Department..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s face looked enlightened.

It turns out it’s Yuwen Yin from Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace.

This old fellow had already reached Perfection of Spirit Transmutation long ago, yet clearly, when Chen Mobai ascended, Yuwen Yin was still below.

Which implies Yuwen Yin ascended the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation following Chen Mobai’s ascendance.

Due to Wuwei Immortal Monarch taking him to meet Kongming Heavenly Monarch, having his Dao title registered, and being blocked by Kang Jin Heavenly Monarch, Chen Mobai was delayed, allowing Yuwen Yin to exploit a loophole, claim the Creation Immortal Pill early, and enter the True Immortal Pool.

[It seems that Immortal Monarch Kang Yu fished out Yuwen Yin directly during the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation; otherwise, it couldn’t have happened this quickly.]

Chen Mobai contemplated inwardly.

The two Seventh Rank True Spirits of Kang Jin Dragon were Kang Jin Heavenly Monarch and Immortal Monarch Kang Yu, holding equal positions in the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm as the Water Department’s Xuansu Heavenly Monarch and Wuwei Immortal Monarch.

They are also the origin source of all the Kang Jin Dragon bloodline, the ancestors.

Compared to the unlucky Ancestor Black Dragon, they managed to hold out, awaiting the opportunity for the Seventh Rank promotion.

Qionghua Daoist Monarch of Purple Cloud Palace was Human Race, a noble daughter of an Immortal Cultivation Family whom the Heavenly Emperor encountered during his incognito visit to the Mortal Realm.

That’s why Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace’s separate courtyard was established.

Later, Qionghua Daoist Monarch followed the Heavenly Emperor to the Immortal Realm, showing great promise and leveraging Mi Luo Palace’s resources, she succeeded in Harmonization, securing her position as Heavenly Consort.

The Yuwen Clan founded by the Heavenly Emperor and Qionghua in the Lower Realm became Central State’s foremost Immortal Cultivation Family, extending its reach to the Five Continents and Four Seas, establishing the Imperial Court, even having many ascendants among descendants thus bolstering the strength of Purple Cloud Palace lineage in the Upper Realm.

After tens of thousands of years of strife, Qionghua Daoist Monarch even managed to confine the Heavenly Empress to the Cold Palace.

Having exposed Yuwen Yin, Chen Feng chose to go all out, so upon Chen Mobai’s inquiry, he explained the full background about Purple Cloud Palace lineage.

Yuwen Yin being the heir of the Emperor of Heaven, married Ao Yuxia of the Kang Jin Dragon Clan; if he can achieve Harmonization, he might have a chance to vie for the Heavenly Emperor’s throne.

Even the most exceptional in Purple Cloud Palace lineage, Yuwen Ji, was merely at the Peak of Void Refining.

The basic requirement for inheriting the Heavenly Emperor’s throne is a Seventh Rank cultivation level, carrying the mantle of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Thus, the lineage of Heavenly Empress still holds a chance of regaining control, as long as one of her seven sons can achieve Harmonization with Order.

"Regarding that point, many Princes experience misfortunes before stepping into Harmonization."

This statement from Chen Feng Immortal Official surprised Chen Mobai.

"With the Heavenly Emperor in place, could there really be someone in the Immortal Realm daring to harm the Princes?"

"I have no idea," Chen Feng Immortal Official replied, "rumors say the pressure is overwhelming so they die in Harmonization, henceforth, since the Heavenly Emperor’s accession, dozens of Princes have perished in the quest for Harmonization."

The prerequisite for inheriting the Heavenly Emperor’s throne is Harmonization with Order.

As a result, many hopeful Princes are putting all their efforts into this path, leading to considerable internal consumption among several Void Refiners on the path of Order.

"Some Princes uninterested in the Heavenly Emperor’s throne chose other Acquired Great Dao paths, for instance, one of them entered Thousand-Autumn Saint’s tutelage, receiving Saintly guidance, now Harmonized with Light, known as Light Saint Monarch."

"Owing to the abundance of Heavenly Emperor’s lineage, nearly every notable faction among Immortal Realm has Princes pledged to it."

"Both the Water Department and Taixu Palace each host a Harmonization Prince."

"Though not pursuing the Great Dao of Order, they strive to elevate Acquired to Innate. Notably, while the Great Dao of Order is the basic requirement, selecting a suitable Innate Great Dao to inherit Heavenly Emperor’s throne is preferable."

These words from Chen Feng Immortal Official made Chen Mobai comprehend the current situation of Spiritual Void Immortal Realm.

The Heavenly Emperor’s desire to retire and transcend akin to the Seven Saints of Creation’s Transcendent Realm is no secret.

Regarding the next Heavenly Emperor, various factions are investing in various Princes.

Awaiting which Prince achieves Harmonization with Order first, he will become the "Crown Prince."

The most promising candidate currently is Purple Cloud Palace’s Yuwen Ji, reportedly grasping most of the Great Dao of Order, ready to step into Harmonization at any moment.

Yet, seeking greater assurance, he has refrained from attempting Harmonization thus far.

[No drive for courageous progress, incapable of achieving grand feats.]

Although Chen Mobai broke through relying on overwhelming resources, it didn’t stop him from commenting on Yuwen Ji.

After all, he wasn’t competing for the Heavenly Emperor’s throne.

Next, Chen Mobai asked Chen Feng Immortal Official further questions, gradually forming a clear understanding of Spiritual Void Immortal Realm’s situation from previously total blindness.

"Young friend, my shift time is up."

Seeing the sky darkening, Chen Feng Immortal Official finally couldn’t resist, pointing to the setting Tai Yang outside and the faintly rising heavenly stars.

The reason Chen Feng Immortal Official chose the Immortal Pool Hall for retirement was due to its tranquility, allowing him to clock out on time, having never worked overtime for thousands of years.

Today, as Chen Mobai visited, he patiently spoke a bit more.

"Apologies, engrossed in chatting, forgot the time."

Chen Mobai felt a bit embarrassed too, since he disliked working overtime himself.

After swiftly placing the two Heavenly Monarchs’ Command Tokens back into his sleeve, Chen Mobai and Chen Feng Immortal Official left the Immortal Pool Hall.

As Chen Mobai had no residence in Mi Luo Heaven, after asking Chen Feng Immortal Official, he planned to temporarily find an Immortal Hall to settle in until Wuwei Immortal Monarch emerged, to further discuss matters.

"Young friend, Immortal Pool Hall opens at this time tomorrow. If you have no pressing matters, please refrain from arriving too early."

After shutting the Immortal Pool Hall’s door, Chen Feng Immortal Official finally said this to Chen Mobai.

As Chen Feng Immortal Official prepared to teleport away, silver light suddenly flickered before him, and a familiar figure appeared.

"Hail Kongming Heavenly Monarch."

Chen Mobai too hadn’t expected Kongming Heavenly Monarch to come, promptly followed Chen Feng Immortal Official in greeting.
