I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2487 - 1111: Innate Treasure - Primordial Water Control Banner
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Dustless and Da Kong were already aware of Chen Mobai's unique nature from prior tales.
Upon hearing his words now, their astonishment deepened, leaving them to marvel at the existence of such an individual in the Eastern Continent.
Indeed, only a figure with this kind of benevolent heart, devoted to the welfare of all, could possibly walk the path of the Saintly Virtue Great Dao!
Since the dawn of the Five Continents and Four Seas, the menace of the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court had persisted, defying even mighty beings like the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Ancestor.
Consequently, through countless years, the Holy Lands of the Eastern Continent had grown resigned to this sinister presence next door.
Though clashes erupted, much like in the recent clash between the Righteous Path and the Demon Sect, the best outcome was usually just forcing them back temporarily.
"Young friend, certain details might escape your knowledge. The Sea Suppressing Bead from the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court commands every body of water across the heavens, reaching almost seventh-rank strength within the Mysterious Sea. Despite our five Divinity Transformations, venturing into those depths could spell doom without a way out."
Da Kong True Monarch voiced his worries, noting how Taixu MiaoMiao Palace once maintained outposts across the Five Continents and Four Seas, yet pulled the one from the Mysterious Sea after endless strife with the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court.
"I’ve heard Taixu MiaoMiao Palace owns a seventh-rank Dao treasure as well? Might we request its use to aid the Eastern Continent’s Righteous Path in wiping out the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court?"
Chen Mobai firmly held that no challenge proved impossible for the resolute.
The Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court depended solely on its terrain edge and the Sea Suppressing Bead’s dominion over vast waters.
Yet that power fell just short of true seventh rank.
Ancient holy sites in the Central State house profound treasures of insight.
Should they secure a genuine seventh-rank Dao treasure on loan, Chen Mobai was convinced the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court could be subdued.
Such an effort for the Human Race promised immense merit.
"Young friend, that’s a Dao treasure, though. Even as a Divinity Transformation in our sect, I’ve never laid a finger on it."
Da Kong True Monarch replied, his expression brimming with regret.
The Dao treasure bequeathed by Taixu True King carried a spirit rivaling any cultivator’s, able to erupt with force that subdued Divinity Transformations sans any wielder, honored like a founding patriarch.
During his own breakthrough to Divinity Transformation, Da Kong True Monarch had glimpsed it once by chance.
"What a shame that is."
Chen Mobai then grasped why the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Sect had stayed silent on retaking the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court over all these years.
"Still, if we’re set on ending the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court for good, a method might exist,"
Dustless True Monarch interjected at that moment, pulling the gazes of Chen Mobai and Da Kong True Monarch toward him.
"Within the seas, the Sea Suppressing Bead approaches seventh rank, but that’s because the Sky Sea Jellyfish Palace wields the authentic seventh-rank Water Dao Supreme Treasure, known as the Primordial Water Control Banner. Summon that banner to the Mysterious Sea, and the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court loses all grip on waters, leaving the Old Flood Dragon helpless against us."
Dustless True Monarch revealed a natural treasure that perfectly opposed the Sea Suppressing Bead, mildly surprising Da Kong True Monarch, given the Sky Sea Jellyfish Palace’s long absence of heirs.
Chen Mobai gave a subtle nod, committing the detail to memory.
"I remember the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Ancestor studied under the Mother of Water. Perhaps Master Ni could tap Upper Realm ties to secure this banner on loan."
Though Chen Mobai lacked any ties to the Jellyfish Palace, he figured that with the bitter enmity between the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Sect and the Mysterious Flood Dragon’s Court, it made sense to have Yuan Qingque pull strings from the Upper Realm for this cause.
Dustless True Monarch’s lips quirked faintly in response.
He’d raised the point precisely to probe if Chen Mobai’s Dao companion, Qing Nu, hailed from the Jellyfish Palace.
After all, wasn’t the Dao Morale Sect’s own founder also a pupil of the Jellyfish Palace?
Yet demanding a genuine innate treasure like that would surely provoke the Jellyfish Palace into fury, likely ejecting them immediately.
In the Tianhe Realm, far too many loans of treasures ended with them never coming back.
Besides, given the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Ancestor’s lofty position, why would he meddle in something so minor?
Evidently, Daoist Danxia bore no lineage from the Jellyfish Palace.
A touch of letdown washed over Dustless True Monarch.
"In that case, it falls to the Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Sect. Should they manage to obtain the Primordial Water Control Banner, I’d gladly flay that Old Flood Dragon myself."
To spare Chen Mobai any discomfort, Da Kong True Monarch declared this openly.
Deep down, though, he recognized that acquiring a seventh-rank innate treasure was utterly impossible.
"Looks like that’s our only option..."
Chen Mobai let out a sigh, having originally yearned to shield his kin from peril and maybe claim the fifth-rank inner cores from a pair of Flood Dragons as an extra prize.
With the discussion wrapped up, Da Kong True Monarch took the initiative to discuss the Dragon Abyss Cave. Drawing on traces he’d planted over time, he’d carved a rift into the Netherworld and aimed to forge a reliable two-way channel before long.
"I intend to dispatch puppets for scouting ahead. Junior Brother Dustless has been honing the Puppetry Technique too. Care to team up with us?"
At these words, Chen Mobai paused briefly yet agreed with a nod to blend in.
He possessed an abundance of puppets, and as veteran Divinity Transformations of the Tianhe Realm, Dustless and Da Kong surely commanded vast strategies and insights. Thrillingly, he pondered possible remnants of wisdom from ancients at the Ascension Platform, making it wise to trail them.
Soon after, Chen Mobai trailed them to the Dragon Abyss Cave, deploying several Formless Puppets in place.
At his present cultivation stage, directing puppets remained feasible even across the far reaches of the Eastern Wilderness. Thus, post-deployment, he pursued his separate pursuits.
Not just him—Dustless True Monarch followed suit, heading back to East Spirit Mountain to begin crafting Coagulation Infant Pills. Since the Dongling Domain’s unveiling, Eastern Continent cultivators had spent their hoarded Dao Coins, with nearly all Golden Core Cultivators set on those Coagulation Infant Pills.
