I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2423 - 1084: Entering the Purple Cloud Palace Again (Part 3)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Chen Mobai's greatest regret remained that the second Azure Bird failed to carry him back into the Purple Cloud Palace once more.
For the Dan Ding Taoist, evidently, the lecture on Ninth Rank Creation stood as the sole vital memory.
While Chen Mobai pondered this, the Azure Bird above him abruptly transformed into a verdant mist and descended, wrapping him completely inside.
Upon waking, he discovered himself outside the Yuping Small Realm entirely.
Chen Mobai glanced at his Daoist Robe and the circular mat beneath his knees, understanding he had returned yet again to the Purple Cloud Palace.
So, Enlightenment must come first!
Without grasping the Saintly Virtue Great Dao, entry into this part of the Illusionary Realm proves impossible.
"Junior, junior..."
As Chen Mobai reflected, a voice he recognized approached with curiosity.
"Senior sister, focus on the lecture!"
Not knowing the person before him well, Chen Mobai acted as if eager to learn diligently, avoiding any sound transmission for idle talk.
"Oh..."
The female cultivator in blue robes ahead responded in a strange tone, after which they both resumed attentively hearing the purple-robed Daoist's teachings.
Chen Mobai figured that for the Dan Ding Taoist to cling to the Dao Fruit even beyond death, these lectures' substance had to rival the Ninth Rank Creation in depth.
Therefore, he concentrated from the start, maximizing the Law of the Five Tones' potential.
With the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun diagram fully formed, his instincts now hit their zenith, nearing the boundaries of mortal limits.
Chen Mobai sensed a brief look passing over him, reminiscent of his initial visit here, likely from the teaching purple-robed Daoist.
He kept his head down, anxious about being spotted as an intruder by the purple-robed Daoist and thrown out.
After some time passed, the Daoist kept speaking without pause, allowing Chen Mobai to ease up and devote himself to noting the profound ideas while taking in Spiritual Objects.
This session astonishingly covered the Three Thousand Great Dao.
It built upon the prior lesson on Ninth Rank Creation, suggesting the purple-robed Daoist had reflected deeply afterward, aware of possible gaps in students' understanding, and chose to elaborate further.
"By basing upon the Three Thousand Great Dao, creating a universe becomes possible. Long ago, I commanded the Three Thousand Great Dao through forging a universe of my own."
"At heaven and earth's birth, as the initial spirit, the Three Thousand Great Dao would fall under your natural rule."
"Yet in that primal forming, numerous mighty Innate Spirits arose with the Dao. Emerging supreme in the Dao as Harmonization beings, certain gifted ones could consume additional Daos to attain Pure Yang Realm. In those scenarios, subduing, mastering, and refining the Three Thousand Great Dao into Creation Power would demand ages of effort!"
"Forging a universe and manifesting the Three Thousand Great Dao—this path led me to Creation."
"You, at the height of cultivation within this universe, seeking to surpass and affirm the timeless Dao, might follow my way or forge a fresh route to forever, given your inherent promise."
As the lecture wrapped up, the purple-robed Daoist spoke to the seven front-row students; they responded with profound bows of gratitude.
"Thank you, teacher, for bestowing the Dao!"
Following the front row, every attendee in the hall mirrored the gesture with deep salutes.
Chen Mobai joined in without hesitation, even among the swiftest to bow.
"Very well, this marks my final lecture here, after which I depart this universe. Pose any queries now, and I shall resolve them all today."
The purple-robed Daoist gestured, forcing everyone in the hall to rise against their will.
Hearing this, Chen Mobai grew anxious.
If his assumption held, he now embodied the Dan Ding Taoist but truly infiltrated to listen secretly, maintaining clear awareness.
He longed to consult the purple-robed Daoist directly, yet his own Realm lagged far behind; he dreaded posing simplistic queries that classmates might mock, exposing his true self.
After all, these represented the universe's mightiest figures; Chen Mobai worried that even in the Dan Ding Taoist's Illusionary Realm, they could detect past shifts and identify him.
With that in mind, Chen Mobai considered playing dumb and holding back any questions.
"I understand you all harbor endless doubts, but to prevent hindering my exit, limit yourselves to one query each."
Just as Chen Mobai resolved to reluctantly skip asking, the purple-robed Daoist, perched on the Green Lotus, announced unexpectedly.
"Teacher, might we pose two questions?"
The blue-robed female cultivator, mounted on a tortoise in the first row, couldn't help but request.
But the purple-robed Daoist declined with a head shake, then indicated the leftmost seat in the front.
"Yi Xing, begin!"
The silver-haired Daoist gave a subtle nod before inquiring: "Teacher, can my Great Dao attain eternity?"
This query lit up the assembly's gazes.
As expected, the purple-robed Daoist creased his brow faintly, facing apparent challenge. Moments later, he exhaled softly and shook his head: "No."
At those words, the silver-haired Daoist's complexion drained of color, while the brilliant Star River Chessboard hovering over him started to fracture, as though his Dao Heart had broken apart.
