I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 3087 - 1464: Origin of the Demon Lord
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
When he heard Yi Xing’s name, Chen Mobai’s expression turned forlorn.
Because he had long been prepared mentally, he directly accepted it.
Xu Third Saint: "Yi Xing is the first star to be born from Hun Yuan in this universe. After being enlightened by the master, he transformed into human form and joined the sect. Although he is the senior brother, his foundational talent is slightly inferior to other top-ranked innate spirits and lacks the potential for Ninth Rank Creation."
"However, Yi Xing was not convinced and always wanted to prove himself. He was the second after Tianhai to try to refine the Three Thousand Great Dao of the Tianhe Realm, but while Tianhai succeeded, he did not."
"Since then, a problem appeared in Yi Xing’s mindset, and he started to cultivate the Primordial Dao. Many true immortals who harmonized fell victim to his schemes, transformed into his Demon Path Dharma Form, or Primordial Incarnation. The White Tiger might have connected with him during that time."
"Yi Xing’s fall naturally couldn’t be hidden from others in Purple Cloud Palace, and Ci Bei, who had the deepest bond with him, took the initiative to confront Senior Sister Tianhai and others, expressing that he would handle the internal struggle. The two fought a fierce battle that almost shattered the Purple Cloud Universe."
"Finally, Tianhai intervened and drove them into Chaos."
"Nobody knows the exact outcome of that battle. All I know is that Ci Bei returned a thousand years later and left with Tianhai when she departed from this universe."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai instantly recalled the remnant of the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda in Spiritual Venerable’s hand.
Presumably, it was the result of the battle with Yi Xing.
He originally thought Ci Bei had encountered a formidable enemy but didn’t expect the truth to be an internal conflict.
"Presumably, Brother Ci Bei was sentimental and didn’t strike with fatal force, and simply exiled Senior Brother Yi Xing to Chaos. Later on, Senior Brother Yi Xing must have found a way to return..."
Chen Mobai shared his speculation, for after Tianhai took Ancestor Dragon and the others and left, Gui Ling testified to Ninth Rank Creation.
After Gui Ling failed in his creation, the Demon Lord came out to stir up trouble and eventually was sealed by Taixu True King.
"That’s probably it. Though Ci Bei seems impartial, he’s actually deeply connected to his emotions."
Xu Third Saint nodded in agreement with Chen Mobai’s hypothesis.
"My wife mysteriously vanished at that time, and it’s likely she encountered the Demon Lord. Senior Sister Forget-Machine might have been inadvertently caught in the crossfire, ending up being sealed by the Demon Lord."
After learning that Bai Guang’s great enemy was Yi Xing, Chen Mobai felt immensely worried.
Considering Bai Guang’s Heavenly Killing Sword broke and her True Spirit only revived now, it’s evident the battle with the Demon Lord was unfavorable.
Even if she restores her peak strength upon return, the chance of defeat is high.
"You needn’t worry; the Demon Lord’s sealing place is highly concealed, and the seal set by Brother Taixu ensures that anyone attempting to open it will be instantly perceived; the Demon Lord can’t emerge."
Xu Third Saint, seeing Chen Mobai worried about Bai Guang’s safety, opened his mouth to reassure him, stating Bai Guang couldn’t possibly open the Demon Lord’s seal.
"Oh, do you know where the Demon Lord is sealed?"
Curious, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but ask.
"I don’t know; I’ve simply heard Brother Taixu say it’s somewhere unimaginable." Xu Third Saint shook his head, his face full of confidence in Taixu True King.
Chen Mobai, hearing this, felt relieved and stopped further inquiry.
He’s not that nosy, and knowing such matters adds risk of leaking; it’s best if only Taixu True King knows.
"It’s unfortunate the Destroying Dao Heavenly Axe was taken away by my wife, causing you a wasted trip, brother."
Chen Mobai recalled the main purpose of Xu Sijiu’s visit and couldn’t help expressing a face of apology.
"Once I received the news, I guessed it would be in the hands of White Tiger Saint Venerable, and this visit was merely to confirm. I didn’t expect she’d become your wife..."
As Xu Third Saint said this, he couldn’t hide his schadenfreude, seemingly awaiting the future life of Chen Mobai and his wife with anticipation.
"Alas, although it started forced, between us there’s a daughter, and I hope she can change her impulsive nature in the future."
Chen Mobai hopes Bai Guang can prioritize family; Pure Yang’s lifespan is boundless, and she can certainly wait for him to reach Pure Yang. At that time, the couple could team up to deal with the Demon Lord and clean house, a more secure strategy.
It’s a pity Bai Guang doesn’t realize this, always relying on her sword to resolve all problems.
"Then I wish you happiness."
While Xu Third Saint said this, he couldn’t stop a smile from creeping up.
Still, as a confidant, he brought Chen Mobai a surprise.
"Send me your account, and I’ll transfer 800 Dao Merits to you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s face lit up with joy.
Even though the Portal task panel stated that providing accurate information would yield rewards, with the Destroying Dao Heavenly Axe not in his possession and disinclined to swear self-certification, he’d anticipated coming back empty-handed.
Yet, unexpectedly, Xu Third Saint instantly considered his task completed.
Indeed, having connections in high places makes things easier.
"Thank you, brother!"
Chen Mobai sincerely expressed his gratitude with the utmost genuineness.
Soon, 800 Dao Merits were credited, and seeing the now four-figured balance, Chen Mobai felt his back straighten considerably.
Many things in the cart could be cleared, and there’s the owed 7 Dao Merits to Immortal Gate.
"The 800 Dao Merits, Brother Taixu and I personally subsidized half; the other half came from the balance of five accounts once frozen by White Crane Dao Arena, which I maneuvered."
"Consider the information about the Destroying Dao Heavenly Axe unfulfilled, let it stay posted, preventing attention from calculated individuals. Many know the background of this Innate Treasure."
"Use these Dao Merits to cultivate well. If you can harmonize, Brother Taixu and I can feasibly adjust you to the Central Dojo for succession."
Xu Third Saint began to paint a picture for Chen Mobai, who, looking at the 800 Dao Merits balance, expressed his determination to strive for Harmonization promptly.
"The Saintly Virtue needs education; use these Dao Merits resources to train disciples and students on your planet. Don’t neglect Purple Cloud Palace’s preaching throughout star systems. Those entering Purple Cloud Palace carry fate, and maybe one could harmonize in the future..."
Before leaving, Xu Third Saint advised Chen Mobai, showcasing traits of a Saintly Virtue Spiritual Artifact’s reincarnation.
"Brother, how did you harmonize in such a short time?"
Chen Mobai felt equally curious about Xu Third Saint’s rapid cultivation progress.
"Brother Taixu has ten spare Taixu Dao Bodies, all prepared for Acquired Great Dao relevant to Taixu Dao, into which I reincarnated the third."
Without concealing, Xu Third Saint explained his moniker.
Xu refers to name; Three is the designation; Saint signifies him.
"So, does it mean two bodies were activated before?"
Applying analytical thinking, Chen Mobai swiftly reached the crux.
"Xu Yi is Brother Taixu himself, named Xu Da."
"Xu Er is Sister Green Lotus, named Xu Erqing."
"I’m the third one."
