I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2404: 1079: Obtaining the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill (Part 4)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
“I implore the True Monarch to make a decision!”
Upon finishing his words, Hong Yun bowed deeply right away to the Dustless True Monarch. He understood perfectly that lacking the backing of a Divinity Transformation powerhouse, he would probably have to surrender the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill right here and now.
Given his past conflict with Chen Guixian, the latter could easily seize this chance to trouble him further.
“I beseech the True Monarch to sympathize with our laborious pioneering efforts!”
Yet Xing Ji and Earth Virtue both bowed in unison toward Dustless True Monarch and Chen Mobai. Not just them—the dozens of Nascent Soul Cultivators gathered there followed suit.
To these people, swapping for the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill seemed almost out of reach, yet they welcomed any chance to see Hong Yun humbled.
In the end, the remaining six pills went to the Four Great Holy Lands, whose vast resources and formidable might made them untouchable foes.
“Rules remain rules. The seven Communicating Holy Spirit Pills shall go out based on the current rankings. That said, I’ll take into account what you all have to say. This final half-pill will go to whoever tops the Dao Coins list once the Dongling Domain gets built successfully.”
Dustless True Monarch refused to go back on his promise. After all, that pill for Hong Yun came from his own pledge, and the Cleansing World Pot stayed in his hands, unreturned as yet.
With that announcement, Hong Yun, who had feared stirring up widespread anger, let out a relieved breath, realizing once more that in the East Continent's realm, Divinity Transformation experts truly called the shots.
“I object!” Now it was Xing Ji who voiced his opposition.
How could that be right!
He might tolerate waiting it out with Hong Yun, but handing over the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill that felt nearly secured to calm the crowd's fury? That Xing Ji simply couldn't stomach.
“Xing Ji, watch your tongue before you let it loose.”
Hearing this, Dustless True Monarch narrowed his eyes at Xing Ji, his voice carrying a chill.
Those words hit Xing Ji like a wake-up call—he remembered not to provoke a Divinity Transformation existence.
His outburst in rage amounted to slapping Dustless True Monarch's dignity straight on.
Faced with the crushing aura of a Divinity Transformation powerhouse, he swiftly composed himself, bowed his head low, and owned up to his error. “Please forgive me, True Monarch; I overstepped and spoke without thinking.”
“What if we pick a firm deadline? The Dongling Domain build's outcome feels too vague and distant otherwise. This should make it agreeable to all.”
Right then, Chen Mobai stepped in to smooth things over.
He found himself quite admiring Earth Virtue's actions throughout the day.
Had Earth Virtue shown this kind of boldness during their clash in East Land, Chen Mobai might not have scaled Mount Wudi or claimed the full inheritance of Yi Yuan Dao Palace.
“We’ll follow the two True Monarchs’ lead.”
Xing Ji nodded at once, showing his earlier flare-up stemmed from temper alone, with no real intent to disrespect a Divinity Transformation figure.
“Make it ten years, then.”
Dustless True Monarch had no issue with Chen Mobai’s idea and set the timeframe without delay.
“The True Monarch shows true generosity!”
As their push yielded some success, even if it felt like just a brief delay, Earth Virtue and the assembled Nascent Soul Cultivators all voiced thanks to Dustless True Monarch and Chen Mobai.
“Count the prior three and a half years in; I’m granting you six and a half more. Come that time, I’ll check the rankings myself and settle who claims this remaining half-pill of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill.”
Dustless True Monarch paused to reflect. Ten years struck him as overly drawn out; those using this half-pill stood slim odds of triumph anyway. Better to take it soon, verify the flop, and free him, the Divinity Transformation expert, from ongoing worries. He tacked on this note.
Earth Virtue and company wouldn’t dream of resisting.
“Then we’re done here.”
Noticing the nods all around, Dustless True Monarch dismissed them with a wave.
Before long, just the Four Great Holy Lands’ folks lingered.
Naturally, Earth Virtue had the sense to slip away.
“I’ll see you back to your sects. Use this interval to wrap up your loose ends.”
Dustless True Monarch addressed Shenxi, Ni Yuanzhong, and the Palace Master Azure Fall.
Catching those words, Chen Mobai felt a touch of astonishment. Did these three really require a Divinity Transformation escort?
At that instant, a surge of potent Spiritual Energy burst forth inside Dongling Immortal City. Using his Rank-5 Echoes in the Void to listen in, Chen Mobai soon pinpointed Nascent Soul Cultivators locked in battle.
Two Nascent Soul experts were ganging up on Hong Yun.
“What nerve—they dare while I’m present!”
Dustless True Monarch unleashed his mighty Divine Sense, face darkening as he hurled an elixir toward the clash.
A flash of violet-gold glow burst from Qian Yuan Tower’s peak, like a comet slicing through Dongling Immortal City, turning two hidden, hooded Nascent Soul attackers to dust.
“Gratitude, True Monarch, for stepping in and lending aid!”
Hong Yun bowed promptly toward the Qian Yuan Tower. At his level, fending off two Nascent Souls in a siege posed no real threat, but the second he stepped out, over a dozen other Nascent Soul eyes and Divine Senses had locked onto him.
Without Dustless True Monarch’s move, holding onto the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill today would’ve been a long shot.
“No Magic Duels allowed in Dongling Immortal City—offenders face instant death!”
His stern decree, amplified by boundless Divine Sense, rang out over East Spirit Mountain. In that moment, Hong Yun deemed the Cleansing World Pot from the Burning Heaven Meridians a bargain well spent.
Even if Dustless kept it, Hong Yun wouldn’t mind.
Shielded by a Deity Transformation True Monarch’s might, Hong Yun made it back unscathed to his Dongling Immortal City residence and started prepping for his own Divinity Transformation breakthrough.
…
“I hope I didn’t look foolish before you, Friend Chen.”
Back in Qian Yuan Tower, after calling back his elixir, Dustless True Monarch spoke to Chen Mobai with a helpless sigh.
In the Tianhe Realm, cultivators’ daring knew few limits, and fueled by avarice, they’d attempt theft even with a Divinity Transformation presence nearby.
Chen Mobai now grasped why Dustless True Monarch insisted on personally guiding the three sect heads home.
Indeed, some cultivators would strike at them over the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill.
Ni Yuanzhong especially, since the Nine Heavens Morality Sect lacked a Divinity Transformation guardian anymore, its intimidating edge had dulled.
“Guess I should stay vigilant on my way back too.”
Chen Mobai quipped with a grin, lightening the mood a little.
“No loose cultivators would be that reckless against you!”
Dustless let out a hearty laugh; in the East Continent, only Divinity Transformation beings could even think of targeting Chen Mobai. The Righteous Path duo wouldn’t stoop to it, and the East Li’s Flying Night Fiend surely wouldn’t trek this far.
Maybe the overseas Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court.
Three days on, the three sect leaders, eager for their Communicating Holy Spirit Pills at last, tied up their business and vanished into the Teleportation Array alongside Dustless True Monarch.
Once they’d gone, Chen Mobai lingered another pair of days. Then, fresh conflict flared in Hong Yun’s courtyard.
As a Righteous Deity Transformation expert, stepping in fell to him naturally.
But to his shock, Hong Yun had already vanished, leaving a Fire Cloud Palace Nascent Soul Cultivator behind in the yard.
