I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 3022 - 1417: Searching High and Low, Only to Find It Effortlessly (Part 2)

Su Wen, however, smiled and spoke of his backup plan. Although the Netherworld is a place where the Great Dao of the Three Realms is incomplete, it was, after all, the first world opened by the Mother of Water, a critical substitute for the cycle of life and death; thus, the rules of the Immortal Realm cannot interfere.

"I see..."

The Demon Venerable listened and hesitated; after all, he was a True Spirit with immense vitality, and entering the Netherworld might mean the end of his progress.

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist. When the world changes, and the Tianhe Realm can accommodate the Cultivating Void phase, we can return,"

Su Wen’s words did not entirely reassure the Demon Venerable, as demonic cultivators are notoriously untrustworthy, and entering the Netherworld might lead to being refined by them.

"Let’s swear an oath together."

The Demon Venerable said straightforwardly.

Su Wen paused to consider whether swearing an oath was worth it for the Demon Venerable. After careful thought, he realized it was worthwhile and nodded, raising his hand.

Though Tu Ming’s cultivation level was slightly weaker, he wasn’t overlooked by the Demon Venerable, so he too took the oath.

"With the accumulated foundation of the Nine Heavens Morality Sect over tens of thousands of years, the three of us alone might not achieve full success. Why not invite some fellow Daoists?"

The Demon Venerable pointed to the surrounding Fifth Rank auras.

Although they were hiding, as long as they stood on the ground, his bloodline power could see them.

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist. Once we break the large formation and charge into Tongtian Peak, everyone hiding in the shadows will naturally follow suit,"

Su Wen said with a smile, for his main target this time was not the Nine Heavens Morality Sect but the Disk of Life and Death.

However, there’s only one of those things, and everyone else would be a competitor.

So, once the formation is broken, unraveling the karmic lines that the Nine Heavens Morality Sect has entangled over thousands of years, it would then be each person’s skill that decides the outcome.

"Alright."

Hearing this, the Demon Venerable had no further doubts. Besides, his hatred for the Nine Heavens Morality Sect was long uncontrollable.

"Should we wait for Heavenly Spirit?"

Tu Ming suddenly asked, since the Animal Disk was still in the hands of True Lord Tianling.

Su Wen: "Let’s notify him, but we don’t need to wait. After all, fellow Daoist Demon Venerable’s time is precious. Moreover, once the cycle of reincarnation is reorganized, the Six Paths Child Plates will gather under the Great Dao Rules regardless of where they are, growing increasingly powerful, unstoppable even by a True Immortal Dao Monarch."

Anyone possessing a Six Paths Child Plate has the potential to refine or even control the Disk of Life and Death, so for Su Wen, True Lord Tianling is also a rival. However, considering their prior collaboration, Su Wen still instructed Tu Ming to send a Dao Transmission Talisman.

Soon, a talisman brightened in Tu Ming’s hand, transforming into an illusory Kui Beast that sped toward the Eastern Wilderness on thunderous clouds.

...

In the Ruins, True Lord Tianling’s face was icy.

The Five Elements Sect had a super large formation guarding them. This information became known to many Holy Lands during the conflict between Chen Mobai and Jellyfish Palace on the Floating Dao Platform.

Thus, even True Lord Tianling dared not easily step into the territory of the Five Elements Sect.

However, Chen Mobai’s ascendance presented a rare opportunity for revenge, so True Lord Tianling seized the chance to come here and had been stationed for a long time, seeking weaknesses in the formation to see how he could infiltrate and slaughter the high-level cultivators of the Five Elements Sect.

An Escaping Light brightened on the horizon, transforming into a tall, slender cultivator wearing a feathered crown.

Upon landing, he handed a Jade Slip to True Lord Tianling: "Ancestor, this is the latest intelligence we’ve gathered."

If Chen Mobai were here, he would recognize this tall, slender cultivator as the Beast Commanding Sect’s disappeared Great Elder, Mu Youyi.

Back when the Dao Morale Sect was pioneering, Chen Mobai showcased his Divinity Transformation prowess by slaying the Daoist Child of the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect and the Civet Power, scaring Mu Youyi into fleeing with the core cultivators of the Beast Commanding Sect into the Ruins. After the commotion died down, he slipped into the Central State to lodge a complaint with True Lord Tianling.

Yet by then, Chen Mobai had solidified his position, so much so that even with the help of the Kui Beast, True Lord Tianling had no guaranteed victory.

Only when Su Wen approached, offering the use method of the Animal Disk and assisting with the Kui Beast’s bloodline transformation to Sixth Rank, did True Lord Tianling dare to seek revenge. But unexpectedly, even the Sixth Rank Kui Beast was defeated and fled in a direct confrontation, only to be chased and slain by Chen Mobai within the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation.

Since then, True Lord Tianling had become even more cautious, at one point believing this grudge could never be resolved in his lifetime.

Had it not been for the ambition towards the Disk of Life and Death, True Lord Tianling might have already been planning to ascend.

But before he could breakthrough, the news of Chen Mobai’s ascendance reached him.

Upon learning this, True Lord Tianling did not hesitate, immediately bringing Mu Youyi to the East Continent, directing the disciples of the Beast Commanding Sect to infiltrate the Eastern Wilderness and gather information about the Five Elements Sect, seeking a weakness in the large formation for a major opportunity.

"Very good."

After reading the Jade Slip, True Lord Tianling’s mouth curled into a cold smile.

"Ancestor, when do we strike?"

Mu Youyi was also eager; over these years, True Lord Tianling had imparted to him the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect’s Divinity Transformation secret techniques. Combined with the cleansing of his Lifebound Spirit Beast using the Animal Disk, he now had hopes of Nascent Soul transformation.

Moreover, True Lord Tianling promised him a Heavenly Spirit Pill as a reward if the Five Elements Sect suffered significant losses this time.

Therefore, he was the most proactive.

"Waiting for someone."

As True Lord Tianling spoke, a vast True Spirit aura spread from the wilderness behind him—a beast he controlled using the Animal Disk to face the Five Elements Sect.

As the foremost Beast Tamer of the Tianhe Realm, with the help of the Animal Disk, he even contracted a slumbering Fifth Rank True Spirit and elevated two Fourth Rank Peak beasts to Fifth Rank.

As for Fourth Rank demonic beasts, their numbers were sufficient for each Gold Core Elder of the Beast Commanding Sect to possess one.

These Ruin Monsters controlled even more demonic beasts; once they could break the large formation of the Five Elements Sect, they could wash the Eastern Wilderness in blood.

Yet, should they get caught in a protracted battle, the Five Elements Sect, supported by the large formation, could still fend off the Ruin Monsters controlled by True Lord Tianling.

Thus, True Lord Tianling awaited an opportunity for a lethal strike.

Soon, a scarlet blood light appeared on the horizon, manifesting into a female cultivator’s figure as it landed.

"Are you True Lord Tianling, Senior?"

The female cultivator glanced at the gathered individuals, speaking to the gray-haired elder at the center.

"Indeed, you must be Su Wen’s Heart Demon Avatar. How did the affair go?"

True Lord Tianling nodded and asked.

Su Wen had traveled with True Lord Tianling to the East Continent. Without Chen Mobai around, the Heart Demon Great Method revealed that there was still Du Mengyun, a remnant fish.

Though uncertain about how she’d survived in the Five Elements Sect’s territory, Su Wen, wary of past experiences, opted not to use the Heart Demon Great Method to take over her body and instead informed True Lord Tianling of her existence to see if she could be utilized.

Via the Beast Commanding Sect, it was discovered that Su Wen’s Heart Demon Avatar had remarried to the current Acting Family Head of the Sun family. Moreover, her daughter possessed a Heavenly Spiritual Root and had been accepted into the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion as the youngest inner chamber disciple of Danxia True Monarch. True Lord Tianling deemed her a usable pawn.

He coerced Du Mengyun into opening the large formation of Yao Guang Immortal City, allowing him and his controlled demonic beast army to enter. Should she resist, her demonic cultivation would be exposed, jeopardizing her husband and daughter’s promising future.

As anticipated, Du Mengyun relented and came to meet True Lord Tianling.

"Rest assured, Senior; the large formation on Yao Guang Immortal City’s side is already open. Currently, the Five Elements Sect’s army, under Ancestor Ku Zhu, is sailing on a Fifth Rank Treasure Ship to besiege you." Convinced of True Lord Tianling’s identity, Du Mengyun breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

"Foolish woman, do you think joining the Five Elements Sect will earn our righteous path’s acceptance? Ignorant!"

True Lord Tianling was furious upon hearing Du Mengyun’s words, raising his withered right hand, gathering boundless spiritual energy, transforming it into a massive beast claw that swept through the clouds, charging towards Du Mengyun.

"Ancestor Chen, save me!"

Facing True Lord Tianling’s lethal Divine Skills, Du Mengyun immediately knelt and shouted.

Ancestor Chen?

Could it be Turtle Immortal Chen?

Hadn’t he ascended?

True Lord Tianling, upon hearing Du Mengyun’s words, was beset with a storm of questions.

"After searching everywhere to no avail, you’ve come to seek your death, Daoist friend; otherwise, I’d find it difficult to track you down."

At this moment, a soft laugh rang out. Accompanied by a golden sword light, a familiar figure arrived in an instant, slicing through the massive beast claw and standing before Du Mengyun.

It was none other than Chen Mobai.
