I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2421 - 1084: Entering Purple Cloud Palace Again
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Seeing the second Azure Bird left Chen Mobai in profound astonishment.
Could there truly be yet another?
That first Azure Bird had guided him back to the ancient Purple Cloud Palace, revealing the Dao Venerable who transcended this universe, along with the presumed Pure Yang and Harmonious Great Abilities.
But this new one—what secrets did it hold?
Emerging from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree, the Azure Bird soared in loops overhead Chen Mobai, emitting sharp, melodious calls that seemed like summons or maybe a soothing melody for him.
With immense eagerness building inside, Chen Mobai stayed vigilant and dispatched his Second Primeval Spirit to probe it beforehand.
Without any opposition, the Azure Bird unfurled its graceful plumage and settled onto the Primordial Yang Treasure Bead.
As the fusion occurred between them, Chen Mobai sensed the nine dispersed forces in his Primordial Spirit starting to gain structure and slowly coalesce.
These represented the Nine Virtues of the Holy King.
Even with the compact Immortal Gate framework in place across the Eastern Wilderness, achieving Saintly Virtue demanded more than sheer realm strength—it called for an innate elegance and command that compelled true reverence from all.
Back in the Tianhe Realm, by toiling hard with his disciple Jiang Zongheng, Chen Mobai had pushed the Nine Virtues Introspection progress only up to 78%.
He had figured it would take until post-Divinity Transformation to fully refine it, forming a Saintly Virtue Dao Seed. But surprisingly, this chance presented itself right in the midst of Deity Transformation.
Once the second Azure Bird integrated, the advancement in Chen Mobai’s Nine Virtues Introspection surged forward at a breathtaking speed, hitting 100% completion in no time.
A soft, pure glow ignited inside the Second Primeval Spirit, followed by the Primordial Yang Sword bursting forth on its own, with golden lines etching its surface—grand peaks and an ordered society manifesting on one side, while basic implements and farming scenes arose on the other.
Such was the Saintly Virtue route that Chen Mobai had forged.
One side symbolized the Immortal Gate, the other the Tianhe Realm, now weaving together upon the blade to birth a Dao exclusively his own!
Right then, Chen Mobai grasped this unconventional way to cultivate Saintly Virtue!
Rather than the Azure Bird completing the Nine Virtues of the Holy King for him, it steered him to apply the Saintly Virtue honed at the Immortal Gate to fill the 22% gap lingering in the Tianhe Realm.
The Great Tao remains singular, unchanging through ages.
Saintly Virtue from the Immortal Gate embodies the Dao, just as the Saintly Virtue from the Tianhe Realm does.
Still, Chen Mobai had long assumed his Saintly Virtue cultivation was confined to the Tianhe Realm alone, viewing Immortal Gate endeavors as unnecessary, which kept him from chasing Nine Virtues Introspection there—unaware how they might actually support one another.
Within the Nine Virtues of the Holy King, his weakest spot in the Tianhe Realm was "Comparison," which demanded openness to counsel and harnessing shared insights.
But in the Tianhe Realm, scarce few had the courage to highlight his flaws.
Despite his displays of generosity and eager invitations for input, silence reigned as no one ventured to voice opinions.
Things stood in stark contrast at the Immortal Gate, its free atmosphere allowing even Deity-level beings to encounter scrutiny.
Being the greatest prodigy in Immortal Gate history, Chen Mobai still drew judgments, folks deeming his cultivation prowess unmatched yet his skills in the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal ripe for enhancement.
Step by step, from Qi Cultivation up to Deity Transformation, Chen Mobai ascended to Immortal Gate's heights, gradually winning over his once-doubting companions.
His broad mastery in artifact refining, talisman making, formations, and beyond also proved to skeptics his willingness to heed advice and mend flaws.
So, at the Immortal Gate, he had already mastered the "Comparison" aspect of the Nine Virtues of the Holy King long ago.
That said, blending Saintly Virtues across realms relied heavily on the Primordial Yang Sword too!
Among the Primordial Yang Set, the sword acts as the carrier for Saintly Virtue.
This elite Immortal Gate Flying Sword once belonged to the Yuan Yang Ancestor, history's finest in Saintly Virtue at the Immortal Gate. Since falling to Chen Mobai, it steadily absorbed the Saintly Virtue he built in the Tianhe Realm.
As the central link, it enabled the merging of Saintly Virtues from both worlds, allowing Chen Mobai to finalize his Nine Virtues Introspection.
And in that instant, a Dao Seed radiating gentle pure light with faint golden hues started forming and manifesting in Chen Mobai's Purple Mansion Sea of Knowledge.
Saintly Virtue Dao Seed!
With this Dao Seed fully formed, Chen Mobai sensed his Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram surging to Great Perfection.
The barrier in his Purple Mansion Sea of Knowledge crumbled in a flash, propelling him into the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation.
In this pivotal time, Chen Mobai's potent divine sense started expanding steadily. Gauging via the Crown of Heaven and Earth, he figured it would boost by twofold or threefold, sufficient to hit the initial peak of Deity Transformation.
Many would rejoice at such gains, yet Chen Mobai sought more.
He was convinced this breakthrough could propel his divine sense straight to Middle Stage Deity Transformation levels.
For he retained half the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill's effects untapped.
Without his notice, the Second Primeval Spirit had transformed back into the Primordial Yang Treasure Bead, blending into his Purple Mansion Sea of Knowledge akin to a radiant sun, pouring out boundless luminosity. It amplified the release of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill's drug potency, weaving it deeply into his Primordial Spirit.
Thanks initially to the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram's flawless state, his divine sense kept expanding, and with the boosted effects, it accelerated even further.
