I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2308 - 1049: Part 3

"My greetings to Hall Master Gongye and Vice Hall Master Lan. It appears the Hall of Orthodox Law has arrived behind schedule."

Leading Zhongli Tianyu and the rest of the delegation from the Hall of Orthodox Law, Pei Qingshuang offered a formal bow to Gongye Zhixu and Lan Haitian.

"I suspect Hall Master Wenren has already made her way inside," Lan Haitian remarked.

Observing that Wenren Xuewei was missing from the group, Lan Haitian immediately deduced the situation, recalling her mastery of Void Transportation.

Pei Qingshuang responded with a soft smile and a subtle nod of confirmation.

Just then, the spatial ripples of teleportation heralded the arrival of two more Nascent Soul auras.

The newcomers were Master Chengxuan and Master Yuan Xu, both of whom were supposed to be in meditative seclusion at the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains.

Having received the intelligence, both had rushed to the scene using Void Teleportation; Yuan Xu had successfully cultivated this technique following the events of the Shocking God Sonata.

"Honored Masters, please come this way!"

Seeing that all the Nascent Soul cultivators she had summoned were now present, Zhuang Jialan quickly guided the group toward the formation.

However, at that very instant, Crimson Mountain began to vibrate violently, as if the earth itself could no longer contain the overwhelming power surging within it.

This phenomenon left the assembled Nascent Soul Superiors in a state of shock.

They could feel a terrifying presence, as intense as a miniature sun, erupting from the depths of Crimson Mountain and piercing toward the heavens.

"Pure Yang... it has been achieved!"

Master Chengxuan cried out with visible excitement. Since his own Great Dao path involved the element of fire, he was the closest to Divine Transformation among them and thus the most perceptive of the change.

Gongye Zhixu remained silent, immediately utilizing Void Walk to move toward the Treasure Trove.

Lan Haitian followed his lead without hesitation.

Yuan Xu and Pei Qingshuang soon snapped out of their daze and followed suit.

Chen Mobai had been a figure in the Immortal Gate for many years, and despite his frequent periods of seclusion, his personality was well-understood by his peers.

In his younger days, he was known for being flashy.

After attaining high status, he became quite ostentatious and developed a fondness for praise. In this regard, he shared many traits with the Ancestor Bai Guang; it was often said they were a perfectly matched pair.

On the occasion of his breakthrough, being the first to greet him would surely earn his favor and leave a lasting positive impression.

Only Master Chengxuan remained behind, unhurried in his movements.

Inside the Yuping Small Realm.

Chen Mobai had finished merging the Fire Path Dao Fruit into his Second Primeval Spirit, causing a visible shift in his youthful features.

The Law of the Five Tones had proven effective; his conceptualization was a success.

The moment a bond was forged with the Fire Path Dao Fruit, Chen Mobai’s consciousness reached a level of clarity and sharpness he had never known. He could suddenly perceive every trace of fire spiritual power within the Yuping Small Realm. Even beyond its borders, every spark of flame fed by the Fifth Rank Spirit Vein deep under Crimson Mountain was mapped out clearly in his mind.

The Second Primeval Spirit now possessed the appearance of a young man in the prime of his youth.

Though it looked more mature than his physical form, Chen Mobai’s expression was one of pure joy. This change indicated that the Second Primeval Spirit had fully surpassed his original body, officially crossing the threshold into the Divine Transformation realm.

It was not merely the power or the divine sense of the Fifth Rank, but the actualization of the Fifth Rank realm itself.

Faint spiritual patterns of flame manifested on his pale skin. With every breath he took, he resonated with the Fifth Rank Spirit Vein of Crimson Mountain, drawing in massive quantities of fire spiritual energy—amounts that would take a Nascent Soul cultivator years of grueling effort to refine.

Experiencing the might of the Second Primeval Spirit after it had absorbed the Fire Path Dao Fruit, Chen Mobai realized it was dozens of times more powerful than his own physical body. He finally understood the massive chasm that separated Divine Transformation from the Nascent Soul stage.

They were worlds apart.

In this heightened state, Chen Mobai could sense the ancient and eternal Fire Great Dao of the universe. However, his cultivation had not yet reached the stage of stepping directly into the Dao; he was merely standing at its threshold.

Typically, the cultivation of a Divine Transformation True Monarch involves spending vast amounts of time allowing the primordial spirit to acclimate to the Dao’s aura, slowly attempting to harvest small fragments of its power.

It was akin to learning to swim; one starts by testing the water at the shore, entering the calm shallows of Dao power only after gaining experience, before eventually venturing into the great rivers and the turbulent ocean.

While this was the standard path for Divine Transformation, Chen Mobai possessed a shortcut.

He triggered the secret technique of the Yi Yuan Dao Palace, using the Fire Path Dao Fruit as a spiritual anchor to pull the power of the Fire Great Dao from the cosmos, boldly thrusting his Second Primeval Spirit into the flow.

Instantly, the Second Primeval Spirit ignited with a translucent, glaze-like flame, as if it had been submerged in a sea of fire.

At this intensity, even someone with a fire spiritual body like Chen Mobai risked failure. If he could not endure the impact of the Dao’s power, his elemental energy would be catastrophically damaged.

However, the Fire Path Dao Fruit acted as a vessel, shielding his Second Primeval Spirit as it navigated the tides of the Fire Great Dao.

Such was the true utility of Dao Fruits.

Nascent Soul cultivators who refine Dao Fruits can barely tap into a fraction of their potential; only those at the Divine Transformation stage can harness their full strength.

Ultimately, these were treasures left behind by those who had reached the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul stage—those capable of standing on the verge of the Dao and beginning to wield its power.

Safeguarded by the Fire Path Dao Fruit, Chen Mobai slowly reached out, his hand entering the Fire Great Dao.

As he made contact with the Dao.

The Second Primeval Spirit’s palm burst into a brilliant crimson flame. A searing, unprecedented pain flooded Chen Mobai’s mind—a sensation he had not felt since the day he first obtained his fire spirit body.
