I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2482: 1107: Innate Yin Yang Great Dao (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Lately, Chen Mobai has been focusing on crafting design blueprints and drawings, bringing them nearly to completion.
Regarding the civet beast's pelt and fangs, his intention is to forge a protective vestment and a duo of curved Flying Swords meant for Zhuo Ming.
Yet, the true treasure he cherishes above all remains the evolution of the Douluo Eight Scenic Lanterns.
Still, with the required materials not yet gathered in full, this project must wait a bit longer.
Upon employing the Immortal Skill of Patching Heaven to forge the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Root, he will then gear up to craft a pair of vestment robes alongside a single Flying Sword.
Having shared some key details with E Yun, Chen Mobai made his way back to the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion.
Qing Nu continued her secluded Cultivation, so he offered quick guidance to the young Yellow Dragon Girl before securing his Cultivation Chamber with seals.
A sweep of his hand brought forth two glass vials and the Big Tree Immortal Fruit, settling them right by his side.
Inside those vials resided the Heavenly Realm Pure Water, naturally—one brimmed to the top, the other holding just a scant residue at its base.
The overflowing vial came from Chen Mobai's request to Narcissus; since more could be brewed later, no need existed to hoard it as an heirloom. She handed it over readily when he sought it.
The sparse one marked what remained in Chen Mobai's possession.
[Gold 40, Wood 53, Water 99, Fire 100, Earth 100].
Activating the Spirit-Testing Instruments to review his latest Spiritual Root stats, Chen Mobai gave a pleased nod.
He had deliberately restrained his Water Spirit Root's growth. A single drop of Heavenly Realm Pure Water refined would push it to a flawless 100, birthing the Immortal Spirit Root Wenda.
His Metal Spirit Root stemmed from long years of grueling practice with the Technique of Turning into Gold.
With the Big Tree Immortal Fruit now in hand, no delay was needed for the Metal Spirit Root to hit 50 points.
All it took was deploying the Immortal Skill of Patching Heaven to boost the Metal Spirit Root fully, drawing from the Wood and Water Spirit Roots' strengths, then filling any gaps via the Heavenly Realm Pure Water and Big Tree Immortal Fruit.
Prior to that step, Chen Mobai decided to first experience the Immortal Water Spirit Root Wenda, hoping to grasp the essence of Wenda across the Immortal Technique's before and after.
He uncorked the almost depleted glass vial, gathering the lingering trace of Heavenly Realm Pure Water into one precious drop.
Parting his lips to draw it in, the drop of Heavenly Realm Pure Water seeped straight into his kidneys.
This ritual felt utterly routine to him, and as breaths flowed, Chen Mobai sensed his Water Spirit Root swelling to its final measure, reaching utter Perfection.
Eyes shutting with eager hope, Chen Mobai slowly perceived his Primordial Spirit turning crystalline, enveloped by a serene and enigmatic force, as if journeying through infinite emptiness toward the celestial heights.
In that instant, he transformed into a single water droplet, blending with myriad others to form a steady, soothing downpour from above, brimming with life force to sustain the world.
His awareness wandered and shifted amid rain and vapor, where some beads turned into mountain springs, others swelled into mighty rivers and vast lakes, every one relaying the Great Dao's might and its echoes from past to future straight to Chen Mobai.
The essence of water's power washed over him—its embracing nature, its shapeless flow, its tender might. It sustains the myriad yet holds the fury to shatter all. The Water Element Dao Fruit, once glimpsed in insight, now bloomed in full clarity, and he knew that diving into the Black Emperor Abyssal Scripture would propel him to Divinity Transformation with ease.
As insights deepened further, Chen Mobai's mind stretched wider, attuned to every ripple across the Tianhe Realm's waters, pulsing with every brook's rhythm. His Primordial Spirit, purified and mellowed in this rite, began a subtle yet monumental shift beyond his own notice.
Abruptly, Chen Mobai's awareness fused with endless currents into an boundless ocean, plunging deeper with the tides.
Slowly, a profound and shadowy abyss of the sea emerged in his vision.
Legends spoke of the Tianhe Realm's birth from a primal spring eye, spilling infinite waters under the Mother of Water's lead to weave the grand Tianhe through the cosmos.
Might this be that legendary genesis spring?
The notion sparked in Chen Mobai's thoughts as his awareness drew inexorably to the subtle glow, craving union with this vital source.
Drawing nearer, visions of the Tianhe Realm's core unveiled—an awe-inspiring splendor beyond words.
There nestled all the Great Daos he had pursued, while the unfamiliar ones hinted at the remaining paths.
Chen Mobai yearned to tally if three thousand Great Daos truly dwelled within, but then a resonant bell pealed, as if from afar, yet it thundered deep in his soul and spirit.
Within the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion, Chen Mobai's eyes snapped open, shimmering with ceaseless watery undulations.
Mid-enlightenment, his Lifespan Artifact, the Morning Bell, had yanked him from the trance.
For lingering there risked dissolution into the Tianhe Realm's origin Great Dao.
A soft inhalation followed, pulling the thick Water Spirit Qi from the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion into his nose like drifting mist, while his exhalation released it as nurturing rain alive with vigor.
Such rewards sprang from the Wenda rite—a total mastery and awakening to every legacy woven into the Water Element Dao Fruit.
To Chen Mobai, though, it carried a tinge of disappointment, offering little real gain.
After all, armed with the Law of the Five Tones and his existing Divinity Transformation, this step lay inevitable ahead.
Seated in lotus position upon the prayer mat, Chen Mobai let his eyes drift shut once more, replaying the Wenda journey in his mind.
A strong intuition told him that the spring eye glimpsed was this realm's very birthplace.
Should it harbor the Creation Power born of Three Thousand Great Daos' union, his earlier theory would stand confirmed.
This realization drew a wry smile from Chen Mobai.
True Creation Power? He wouldn't dream of claiming it.
Had he foreseen this, he'd have sought Wenda's insights back on the Earth Element Star.
Here in the Tianhe Realm, facing such a colossal boon, he dared not entertain ambitions.
His current station was merely Divinity Transformation, after all.
“Looks like this Wenda chance went to waste…”
With heart and spirit steadied, Chen Mobai murmured in regret.
As he prepared to summon his Second Primeval Spirit for the Immortal Skill of Patching Heaven upon himself, an oddity caught his sense.
“Huh!”
Scrutinizing his Second Primeval Spirit closely, it mirrored its former look on the surface, yet he detected a shift in its core.
The Second Primeval Spirit drew its essence from the Primordial Yang Treasure Bead, built on Innate Fire Spiritual Qi, radiating an unyielding, vibrant energy always.
Yet now, that energy had softened inexplicably, taking on a gentler hue.
Chen Mobai dove his focus inward at once, seizing finer command over the Second Primeval Spirit and probing the enigma of this alteration.
Before long, he noted his main Primordial Spirit shared this very change.
Unable to resist, he slipped into deeper meditation to trace the root of it all.
Bit by bit, Rank-5 Water Spirit Qi from the Yellow Dragon Cave streamed steadily toward him.
At his mind's profoundest core, the Pure Yang Scroll True Intent bestowed by the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable stirred, revealing a sliver of the elusive Great Dao that had long evaded him.
Innate Yin Yang Great Dao!
This path had propelled the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable to transcendence.
As a disciple of the Purple Cloud Palace, Chen Mobai had long coveted it, yet even the Law of the Five Tones left him grasping blindly at its truths.
He'd once believed the Yin Yang Great Dao simply elevated Pure Yang and Pure Yin.
Now, clarity dawned: his grasp had been woefully shallow.
Pure Yang entwined with Pure Yin births Yin Yang, true—but that's just one facet among endless manifestations.
This Great Dao spans every cosmic duality of opposition and harmony.
Pure Yang and Pure Yin form the Yin Yang Great Dao; chill and blaze do too; radiance and shadow likewise; even water and fire embody it.
In the throes of grasping Immortal Water Spirit Root Wenda, Chen Mobai forged flawless harmony between his Water Great Dao and Fire Great Dao insights, unwittingly awakening the Pure Yang Scroll True Intent from his master and stepping onto the Innate Yin Yang Great Dao's trail.
