I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2399 - 1078:

"Looks like I have to seek out an expert to consult."

Chen Mobai muttered this to himself involuntarily.

Within the Eastern Continent, the Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Dao Morale Sect stand as eternal holy grounds ever since the Eastern Wilderness came into being, boasting the most ancient heritage that has observed the triumphs and collapses of Ice and Fen Tianjing Di.

Records on this matter surely exist there.

Regarding the Dao Morale Sect, both Xuan De and Qi Jiannu, acquaintances of Chen Mobai, have departed. Unwilling to trouble Shenxi over minor issues, he instead messages Yuan Zhen to probe for details.

"Back in those days, the Jade Shatter True Monarch ranked among the foremost God-Transcending experts in the Tianhe Realm. Amid the fiercest clash between the two mighty Holy Lands, she battled intensely against the Crane Cooking True Monarch from Fen Tianjing Di, deploying formidable arts to encase his flesh in frozen fragments."

"Yet, the Crane Cooking True Monarch possessed a sworn ally in life and death, the Qin Burning True Monarch, a Divinity Transformation powerhouse from the Southern State’s Mysterious Fire Sect, whose prowess matched that of the Jade Shatter True Monarch evenly."

"Once the Crane Cooking True Monarch’s form was iced over, his Primordial Spirit alone fled southward. Learning of this, the Qin Burning True Monarch rushed to the Eastern Continent for retribution. Though the Jade Shatter True Monarch was depleted of Elemental Energy from her prior fight, she unleashed hidden arts to battle the Qin Burning True Monarch to a stalemate."

"Even though their confrontation raged across the ocean, the explosive clash of frost and flames from their Spirit Transformation Stage techniques disrupted the Mysterious Sea and Eastern Continent’s climate, nearly wiping out the shoreline’s humans and demonic beasts. Consequently, the God-Transcending elders from our three sects, together with the Mysterious Flood Dragon King’s Court, stepped in to halt the chaos."

"The Qin Burning True Monarch departed carrying the Crane Cooking True Monarch, yet vowed to clash with the Jade Shatter True Monarch once more in a hundred years at the Central State’s Holy Dao Conference to settle their feud."

"The Jade Shatter True Monarch, refusing to yield, accepted the challenge, but sixty years on, a bizarre avalanche struck Ice Heaven abruptly, shattering over half of the sixth-rank Ice Spirit Vein, and she vanished thereafter. Shortly after, a disciple noted her Soul Tablet bore cracks. Back then, even our Nine Heavens Morality Sect’s God-Transcending ancestor journeyed to Ice Heaven for the memorial and verified her demise, chalking it up to a botched Cultivating Void breakthrough..."

Yuan Zhen, true to her role as the Nine Heavens Morality Sect’s Saintess, hurried over personally to share everything she knew after receiving Chen Mobai’s inquiry.

Through the years, the bulk of the sect’s duties have weighed on the Saintess. Following her success in convincing the Bing Yun Master to withdraw from the Eastern Wilderness, she meticulously reviewed all Ice-related archives herself.

"What a shame I wasn’t born in that time; it’s a profound sorrow."

Upon absorbing this tale, Chen Mobai sensed the Eastern Continent’s present power felt far too feeble.

During the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s age, the five Great Holy Lands of the Eastern Continent, led by five Deity Transformation True Monarchs, shone with unmatched glory compared to today.

In that period, the Demon Path hid in fear, while the Righteous Path dominated the Eastern Continent with overwhelming might, even affording room for disputes among its own.

Chen Mobai attributed this to the governing structure.

Had he lived then, he could have leveraged a superior system to avert clashes between the two Righteous Path holy lands.

"That said, prior to the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s end, the Crane Cooking True Monarch from Fen Tianjing Di endured the torment of Taiyin Divine Halos within his Primordial Spirit no longer, compelling him into a Heavenly Tribulation that reduced him to dust. The Qin Burning True Monarch sought to hold Ice Heaven responsible, only to be repelled over the Mysterious Sea by the Deity Transformation ancestors of our sect and the Dao Morale Sect. In the aftermath, the two Great Holy Lands divided, forming the present Three Veins of Ice Heaven and the Burning Heaven Meridians..."

Once Yuan Zhen concluded her account, a subtle gleam of pride lit her features.

In this saga, after all, their Nine Heavens Morality Sect emerged with an impeccably noble reputation.

"Worthy indeed of leading the Righteous Path!"

Chen Mobai offered this praise without restraint upon hearing the story.

Beyond other traits, the Nine Heavens Morality Sect’s members he’d met all embodied a heroic righteousness that set them apart from regional norms.

Yuan Qingque embodied it, Ye Qing did too, and Yuan Zhen proved no different.

"Far from it; as the vanguard of the Eastern Continent’s Righteous Dao, our sect has forever championed fairness for all beings and safeguarded harmony across the land..."

At Chen Mobai’s commendation, a faint blush colored Yuan Zhen’s refined visage, her delight evident, though her response stayed humble.

"One additional detail: following the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s demise, the God-Transcending forebears of the three sects grew intensely intrigued and persisted in their probe. In the end, the Dao Morale Sect’s Deity Transformation ancestor employed the Xuanji Instrument to uncover a minor realm, the very spot of the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s thwarted Cultivating Void attempt."

"The trio of Deity Transformation ancestors united to venture inside, discovering a vast frozen crypt instead. Accessing the heart demanded vast Elemental Energy, forcing their early retreat."

"Should the Jade Shatter True Monarch rest eternally there, Ice Heaven’s Three Yin Dao Fruits must reside within that mausoleum as well."

Yuan Zhen at last unveiled this hidden truth, empowered by the Nine Heavens Dao Fruit bequeathed from Yuan Qingque. Her standing in the sect rivaled the Sect Master’s, granting access to these speculations reserved for Deity Transformation cultivators and Sect Masters alike.

Still, such annals existed too in the Dao Morale Sect and Taixu MiaoMiao Palace, alongside the Nine Heavens Morality Sect.

Believing Chen Mobai’s position would prompt Dustless True Monarch and Da Kong True Monarch to reveal it eventually, she chose to share it now, aiming to deepen his goodwill.

"Something like that really happened!"

Just as anticipated, Chen Mobai reacted with profound astonishment.

Yet his shock stemmed not from what Yuan Zhen imagined; instead, he recalled the Taiyin Dao Fruit now held by Han Xingzi.

If the three Yin Dao Fruits were supposedly sealed in the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s mausoleum, then where did this particular one originate?
