I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2418 - 1083:
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
"Teacher, what path leads to eternity and escape from the sea of suffering?"
Right then, the blue-robed female cultivator was the first to awaken, directing her query toward the purple-robed Daoist.
Chen Mobai observed the eager expressions filling the hall, so he quickly sharpened his focus to listen closely.
"Eternity lies beyond this world; you must cross to the opposite shore."
Once the purple-robed Daoist's statement landed, a black-robed youth with white hair followed up immediately, "Teacher, so how does one make it to that opposite shore?"
Purple-robed Daoist: "Achieve eternity first, and the opposite shore will open to you!"
Hearing this, Chen Mobai's jaw dropped in astonishment, his expression frozen in disbelief. He mused that if this Daoist lectured at the Immortal Gate, complaints from parents would have flooded in ages ago.
Still, the enigmatic cultivators gathered in the hall appeared entirely unfazed by such exchanges.
The silver-haired Daoist from the prime left seat in the front row stood up next, voicing the third inquiry: "Teacher, how do we gain the strength to cross to the opposite shore?"
Purple-robed Daoist: "Seize the force of creation!"
The gray-robed youth in the second spot set aside his three-foot green peak sword and inquired, "And how does one cultivate that force of creation?"
Purple-robed Daoist: "Command the three thousand great Dao!"
"How exactly does one command the three thousand great Dao?"
All nine heads of the True Dragon echoed the question at once, their booming tones reverberating through the hall like thunder, leaving the frail ones among the audience reeling with vertigo.
"Do I really need to spell it out? Simply cultivate them step by step. Class is over!"
The purple-robed Daoist's patience finally snapped; with those final words, he spun away and vanished upon the Green Lotus.
It dawned on Chen Mobai that this scene unfolded inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
The Dan Ding Taoist had embedded this vision within the Dao Fruit, deeming it vital wisdom to share with Chen Mobai upon their meeting.
Yet, limited by his own peak Void Refining cultivation, the Dan Ding Taoist's lesson on Ninth Rank Creation could only provide these illusory projections for later disciples to interpret on their own.
Learning this truth, Chen Mobai could only offer a bitter smile.
He hadn't even reached the Spirit Transformation Stage, making it utterly impossible for him to grasp concepts tied to eternity, the opposite shore, or creation.
"Senior brother, where do you want to grab a meal after class?"
While Chen Mobai pondered his options in the Illusionary Realm crafted by Dan Ding Taoist, a voice he recognized rang out from the front.
Lifting his gaze to spot the occupant of the table ahead, Chen Mobai suddenly watched as the entire scene dissolved into swirling fog.
The grand hall, the Green Lotus platform, the woven mats, and the Purple Cloud cultivators all faded gradually into wisps of vapor.
In the final instant, Chen Mobai caught sight of the figure at the forward table standing and pivoting; she was tall with long legs and pale skin, though her features had already smeared into the haze. From the outline alone, though, her beauty was unmistakable.
A single glance at that silhouette revealed it all.
Chen Mobai parted his lips to call out, only to find himself returned before the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree.
The golden-red Immortal Flower above had been nearly exhausted, reduced to a mere bud, while the Azure Bird resting on it grew faint and illusory, poised to shift into a thread of azure vapor and reintegrate with the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree.
Closing his eyes once more for inner reflection, Chen Mobai sensed his nascent soul undergoing a profound shift; influenced by the golden-red Immortal Flower and the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, it started blending with the Phoenix Phantom—derived from the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun image—in the Purple Mansion's Sea of Knowledge.
In that instant, Chen Mobai experienced his nascent soul as feather-light and adrift, on the verge of departing the mortal coil and ascending beyond.
He offered no resistance; the Pure Yang Scroll's true intent, conveyed by the Azure Bird from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree, was fully absorbed by him right then, compressing what should have taken years of transformation into a swift process, as his nascent soul fused with the Phoenix Phantom to evolve into an Azure Bird.
The moment the Azure Bird fully materialized marked the successful refinement of Dan Ding Taoist's true intent, elevating the nascent soul to primordial spirit and granting immortal ascension.
For Chen Mobai, this seclusion's objective was attained with surprising ease.
Checking the Crown of Heaven and Earth's progress indicator, he noted that absorbing the golden-red Immortal Flower and half the Spirit Pill had shattered his bottleneck.
With his primary concerns resolved, Chen Mobai turned his thoughts back to the recent visions.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable delivered teachings on the Innate Yin Yang Great Dao, prompting disciples to probe paths to creation and eternal proof.
The core revelation mirrored Chen Mobai's prior understanding of the Demon Path's Ninth Rank Primordial Realm.
Command the three thousand great Dao!
However, in this cosmos, countless great Dao were already claimed by wielders of immense divine powers; even among Purple Cloud Palace's front-row attendees, the seven held at least Harmonization-level might, and perhaps even Pure Yang prowess.
Under these conditions, how could anyone seize command of the three thousand great Dao?
It couldn't possibly involve, like the Demon Lord, first obliterating the world and then reshaping it anew?
What method did the Purple Cloud Dao Venerable employ to achieve this?
As Chen Mobai mulled over these enigmas, the final bud of the golden-red Immortal Flower overhead crumbled to dust under the Second Primeval Spirit's force, dissolving into beams of golden-red radiance that scattered across Chen Mobai's form.
This vital essence had been what the Five-Cornered Ancient Maple meant to preserve as a foundational seed.
Without his body having progressed to the fifth rank, Chen Mobai might have failed to endure or assimilate this amount.
But in his current state, he smoothly released his nascent soul, letting it emerge and shift into a vividly forming Azure Bird that devoured the drifting golden-red gleams.
