I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 3086 - 1463: The Life of Bai Guang
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
After listening to Xu Third Saint, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but hold his forehead with his hand.
It turns out Bai Guang’s reckless personality is innate. Fortunately, his daughter takes after him, her father, steady and reserved.
"Senior Brother, when she left, she mentioned having a great enemy in the Purple Cloud Palace that she wanted to take revenge on. Do you know who she meant?"
Chen Mobai thought of something and quickly asked.
"Great enemy?"
Xu Third Saint furrowed his brows, starting to recall.
"That guy White Tiger acts recklessly, having offended most of the Chaos True Spirits during the Hun Yuan period, with enemies scattered across the universe."
"However, since she said it’s in the Purple Cloud Palace, the target is quite clear."
"Firstly there’s the master, but even if given a hundred guts, she wouldn’t dare to consider the master as an opponent. So it can only be Ancestor Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix."
"Ancestor Dragon and White Tiger had grudges during the Hun Yuan period, because they were both proud individuals, thinking of themselves as the number one True Spirit of Chaos, and for this title, they didn’t hesitate to fight fiercely. But that time, there was no winner or loser. Later, Ancestor Dragon joined the master’s sect, and his first task upon proving Pure Yang was to go to the West Territory, defeating White Tiger and deeply humiliating her."
"It was after losing to Ancestor Dragon that White Tiger realized how formidable the master who suppressed her was, yet she couldn’t bring herself to rejoin the Purple Cloud Palace."
"Later, comes the matter of Bai He, who under the alias Forget-Machine, sneaked in to learn. But at that time, Bai He hadn’t Harmonized yet, and to prevent her from being bullied in the Purple Cloud Palace, White Tiger altered the appearance of her Companion Treasure, the Heavenly Killing Sword, and let Bai He take it to protect herself."
"Bai He learned the Mystic Gate Path and passed it to White Tiger, but she was a bit impatient. At that time, the master had only taught the first half of the class on the two Innate Great Daos proving Pure Yang, without explaining that the most suitable opposing Dao offers a chance to prove Ninth Rank. And White Tiger, knowing only the previous details, impatiently merged her Slaughter Dao with the Great Dao of Destruction of the Destroying Dao Heavenly Axe, which she succeeded in, quite impressively."
"The two End Paths proved Pure Yang, granting White Tiger the universe’s most powerful and frightening force, but also severing the path to the Mystic Sect Nine Stages."
Through Xu Third Saint’s narrative, Chen Mobai roughly sketched Bai Guang’s life during the Hun Yuan period in his mind.
It can mostly be seen as personality leading to success and failure, along with a lack of education causing many hardships.
If she were calm like him, with Bai Guang’s background, she might not be inferior to Senior Sister Tianhai.
"By the way, what kind of enmity does she have with Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix?"
Ancestor Dragon and White Tiger had conflicts to fight for the top Chaos True Spirit, but between Heavenly Phoenix and them, Xu Third Saint hadn’t mentioned, and Chen Mobai asked out of curiosity.
"The enmity between them is quite complex. During the Hun Yuan period, many bird True Spirits regarded Heavenly Phoenix as their leader, except Bai He, who followed White Tiger. There’s some mystery in this; it is said Bai He and Heavenly Phoenix were originally good sisters but turned against each other due to some reasons. Bai He fled the Southern Territory, protected by White Tiger, which Heavenly Phoenix saw as a provocation."
"Heavenly Phoenix’s Southern Territory and White Tiger’s West Territory border each other. With Chaos True Spirits having endless lifespans and nothing else to do, there’s only fighting for territory. And White Tiger’s favorite pastime is bird hunting, so they fought often."
"However, compared to Ancestor Dragon, when Heavenly Phoenix faced White Tiger, she could only defend and was heavily injured multiple times, forced into Nirvana, and if not for the Wood God’s protection, she probably wouldn’t have made it to join the Purple Cloud Palace."
"But the main conflict between White Tiger and Heavenly Phoenix was about the Great Daos. Although during the Hun Yuan period, these Chaos True Spirits were somewhat oblivious, White Tiger’s Slaughter belongs to the End Path, while Heavenly Phoenix’s Nirvana belongs to the Transcendence Great Dao. The combination of the two has the potential to prove the Mystic Sect Ninth Rank. After joining the master’s sect, Heavenly Phoenix became aware of this and decisively relinquished the foundation of Innate Nirvana, choosing Tai Su and Yin De to prove Pure Yang instead."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s face seemed enlightened. No wonder Dan Cauldron Taoist chose Nirvana as his Seventh Rank goal, certainly knowing that Heavenly Phoenix had vacated this path.
And previously, when he joined the Purple Cloud Palace, he saw intense verbal clashes and direct conflicts between Dan Cauldron, Bai He, and Heavenly Phoenix, probably related to this matter.
At this moment, Chen Mobai recalled another matter.
That was during the Heavenly Phoenix Realm, when he was contemplating together with the Nine Tribulations Heavenly Phoenix Zither, witnessing scenes of black and white light intersecting, striking the Phoenix into Nirvana.
Previously, he thought of it as Reincarnation, given the black and white colors, the first thing that came to mind was Innate Life and Death, Yin Yang these two Great Daos.
But looking at it now, it seems to be Slaughter and Destruction, the two Innate End Paths.
Moreover, White Tiger and Heavenly Phoenix have animosity; the latter might have tried to use Nirvana and the End Paths to prove Pure Yang in the Heavenly Phoenix Realm, leading to an ultimate conflict of Great Daos.
The result should have been Heavenly Phoenix’s defeat.
However, this is, after all, a speculation, so Chen Mobai spoke up seeking confirmation from Xu Third Saint: "Senior Brother, did Senior Sister Tianhai call upon my wife when the Heaven and Sea Realm was being opened?"
Back when he joined the Purple Cloud Palace three times, the attendees were all creatures from the Purple Cloud Palace, without White Tiger among them.
"Indeed, Bai He personally vouched for her, giving her chance to White Tiger. The latter’s two End Paths were also key to the completion of the new universe’s development, so after Senior Sister Tianhai and Yi Xing discussed with them, they let White Tiger place the Destroying Dao Heavenly Axe as collateral in the Central Dojo, allowing her to participate in the project."
"White Tiger wanted to seize this opportunity to self-slit like Heavenly Phoenix, reshaping her Pure Yang foundation, but thus clashed again with Heavenly Phoenix, causing their Great Daos to conflict, creating turmoil in the newborn Heaven and Sea Realm. Angry, Senior Sister Tianhai directly kicked them both out of the project."
"After that, I don’t know much; it seems that White Tiger learned of the Demon Path Ninth Rank method, attempting to break through the Shackles with it, but seemingly didn’t go well, and suddenly mysteriously disappeared."
After hearing about Bai Guang’s previous life, Chen Mobai also felt deeply emotional.
One can only say the choices were entirely wrong, very unfortunate.
Chen Mobai: "Are Ancestor Dragon Senior Brother and Heavenly Phoenix Senior Sister still in the Purple Cloud Universe?"
If Bai Guang’s enemies were these two, Chen Mobai thought he could discuss it with Taixu True King.
Animosity should be resolved rather than cultivated. Bai Guang, having married him, is now also part of the Purple Cloud Palace. These two might be willing to give him face.
"They left with Senior Sister Tianhai long ago."
Xu Third Saint shook his head, saying something that surprised Chen Mobai.
All gone?
Then who is Bai Guang actually seeking revenge against?
Could it really be the Demon Lord!
Realizing this possibility made Chen Mobai feel a bit uneasy, uncertain whether to ask further from Xu Third Saint, especially if the Demon Lord is indeed Yi Xing or with red hair, it would be the biggest scandal for the Purple Cloud Palace.
The dignified Mystic Sect Dao Venerable direct lineage, actually Fallen.
But having asked up to this extent, for Bai Guang’s safety, plus his own curiosity, Chen Mobai still pursued the question: "May I know the origin of the Demon Lord? I saw some past scenes in Primordial Heaven, discovering several Senior Brothers and Sisters have contemplated the Primordial Demon Path."
Chen Mobai’s words were tactful, Xu Third Saint seemed not to catch the hidden meaning, yet he still answered with what he knew: "Primordial actually can’t be called the Demon Path, it is merely another path of Transcendence. However, upon proving Primordial, all things dissipate, the universe enters Annihilation, so it has been labeled as the path of the demon."
"For a vibrant new world like the Purple Cloud Universe, naturally it needs to suppress the emergence of Primordial, so the master had me claim Saintly Virtue early on, blocking the key path to Primordial."
"Regarding Primordial Dao, the master also lectured specifically in the Purple Cloud Palace, so after the master’s Transcendence departure, Ancestor Dragon and others were curious to contemplate it, which was quite normal."
At this point, Xu Third Saint showed hesitation, clearly knowing who the Demon Lord was, and similarly, aware of Chen Mobai’s concerns, understanding this counts as the biggest scandal for the Purple Cloud Palace.
However, considering Chen Mobai is one of their own, and since he has already seen those scenes in Primordial Heaven, directly informing him seems better than letting him guess blindly.
Xu Third Saint: "Next, what I say goes into your ears only, make sure not to let anyone else know."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai nodded vigorously like a tumbling drum, indicating his lips were sealed.
Xu Third Saint: "It is Yi Xing."
