I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2505 - 1122: Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
"Master Chen, perhaps you're unaware, yet following your display of Quasi-Rank-5 Artifact Refiner prowess during the Beidou Conference, you've already drawn the gaze of Central State's Impermanence Pavilion..."
Explaining further, the Palace Master of Azure Fall described how the Impermanence Pavilion stands as the enigmatic powerhouse among all Holy Lands, excelling in the realm of intelligence gathering, its agents scattered throughout the Five Continents and Four Seas.
Within East Continent, even spots like the Sky Meal Building have forged ties with the Impermanence Pavilion, a fact once shared with Chen Mobai by Cannon Dragon and Roasting Phoenix.
Still, being a Holy Land, the Impermanence Pavilion concentrates on elite-level secrets. The premier lists of Deity Transformation True Monarchs across the Tianhe Realm stem entirely from their efforts.
Take, for instance, Chen Mobai's reveal of Quasi-Rank-5 Artifact Refiner capabilities in East Continent—that marked the moment he first appeared on the Impermanence Pavilion's radar.
Back then, under the alias of Yi Yuan Daoist Child and Emperor Chen Qing, the Impermanence Pavilion adopted this pseudonym as his code in their dossier.
Recently, as "Emperor Chen Qing" rose prominently in East Continent and unveiled his real self, gaining fame as the Five Elements Sect Master before his Immortal Ascension, his profile soared to top-tier status within the Impermanence Pavilion, neatly archived.
For personal intel, the Impermanence Pavilion blends location titles with individual names.
Post-Chen Mobai's Divinity Transformation, numerous Central State factions acquired his details from the Impermanence Pavilion, where the file opened with the four words "Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor".
Over time, Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor emerged as Chen Mobai's recognized alias among Central State's influential powers.
"I see."
Listening to the Palace Master of Azure Fall's account, Chen Mobai showed a look of sudden understanding.
In his mind, while the Impermanence Pavilion's designation felt like pure coincidence, it aligned flawlessly with what he wanted.
In the end, his primary handle on the Immortal Gate Network was "Qing Emperor".
Now it truly suited him.
"This is my son Yuwen Baozhi; since childhood, he’s been interested in artifact refining and puppetry. However, my husband was strict, so it wasn’t until reaching the Nascent Soul stage that he had time to delve into subjects related to the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal. Fortunately, his talent is adequate, with a current success rate of refining Rank-4 Magic Artifact at thirty percent; hopefully, by staying by Mr. Chen’s side this time, he can glimpse the Profound Mystery of Rank-5 Artifact Refining."
Right then, Ao Yuxia drew the youth dressed in lavish robes and a jade belt closer to her, presenting him to Chen Mobai.
"A talented young man indeed!"
Chen Mobai gave a polite praise.
He harbored no bias, but given Yuwen Baozhi's parents as Deity Transformation True Monarchs and Tianhe's abundant resources, even a four-spiritual root mix could likely reach Nascent Soul Realm.
Still, Chen Mobai had learned from Ye Qing that Central State's Daoist Saintesses were typically superior to those in East Continent; plenty arriving here matched Ye Qing's caliber, including some who attained Divinity Transformation.
However, through Chen Mobai's Echoes in the Void, Yuwen Baozhi's cultivation sat merely at Nascent Soul Middle Stage—decently strong in East Continent, yet surely at the lowest rung for a Daoist Child in Central State.
"Mr. Chen, this is a gift, please accept it."
Following the presentation, Ao Yuxia produced a Jade Box and offered it to Chen Mobai, who first refused but took it after the Palace Master of Azure Fall urged him.
Inside, upon inspection, lay a chunk of Fifth Rank Peak White Heaven Crystal.
With this addition, alongside Elder Jingchi's gifted Nine Yang True Fire Stone, just the Purple-Gold Fire Copper was left to elevate the Douluo Eight Scenic Lantern to Sixth Rank.
[Zhang Pankong truly excels at his tasks.]
Pleased, Chen Mobai stowed the Jade Box, then grinning, guided the visitors into Northern Abyss City.
"I didn’t anticipate such a lively yet orderly Immortal City in the Lands of Eastern Continent."
Ao Yuxia and Yuwen Baozhi marveled at the vibrant Northern Abyss City; though Central State boasted grander, more crowded Immortal Cities, none matched its meticulous layout.
Pouring that many into a Central State city would breed disorder.
Northern Abyss City, by contrast, followed strict zoning and pathways, allowing seamless flow; even busy spots struck Ao Yuxia as energetic rather than jammed.
"Oh, may I ask what that is?"
With intrigue, Yuwen Baozhi gestured toward the elongated puppet ferrying folks along the road, operated by a cultivator, his expression full of wonder as he questioned.
"That’s a Car Puppet; since in this Immortal City, cultivators below Core Formation are prohibited from flying, these puppets operate between the main streets, each ride costs just a Five Elements coin..."
Chen Mobai took the initiative to clarify, and Yuwen Baozhi's gaze lit up instantly, inquiring right away about the Five Elements coins' value.
"Gu Yan, guide our guest for a firsthand experience."
Chen Mobai directed the attendant at his side, who promptly agreed, extracting a bunch of Five Elements coins from her Storage Bag, heading to the stop and signaling for the Car Puppet.
Yuwen Baozhi glanced back at Ao Yuxia, who paused briefly before approving with a nod, letting him go with Gu Yan as she showed no interest.
"I heard Mr. Chen’s Enlightenment Tea harnesses the Creation Profound Mechanism; could I have the chance to taste it today?"
Once Yuwen Baozhi departed via the Car Puppet, Ao Yuxia suddenly asked.
"It would be my pleasure."
Smiling, Chen Mobai agreed, soon escorting Ao Yuxia and the Palace Master of Azure Fall up to North Abyss Mountain Peak.
"Mr. Chen, this Dragon Pulse in Eastern Wilderness is the most vitalized I’ve seen, but it seems such a large Dragon Pulse should’ve developed spirituality a while ago, no?"
While Chen Mobai prepared the tea, Ao Yuxia stared out at the Eastern Wilderness Mortal World's Royal Capital, voicing her thoughts.
"Perhaps the light of civilization isn’t adequate yet."
Naturally, Chen Mobai kept silent about his caution toward the Dao Morale Sect’s heaven and earth Xuanji Instrument possibly sensing him, as he ongoingly worked to diminish and restrain the Dragon Pulse. Even without Jiang Zongheng's interference now, it lacked just one opportunity to awaken spirituality.
"I have a method to transform the Dragon Pulse into spirituality; should Mr. Chen require, I’d offer my assistance for free."
Ao Yuxia's proposal caused Chen Mobai to furrow his brow faintly.
That said, from Ye Qing, he knew Central State's fierce rivalry made sects think like traders, where every action carried a cost.
"Such matters should be left to nature’s course, and besides, in the Lands of Eastern Continent, there’s considerable fear regarding Dragon Pulse gaining spirituality."
Chen Mobai doubted Ao Yuxia was ignorant of the Eastern Emperor Court's past and puzzled over this Central State Divinity Transformation's intentions.
"Oh, it seems Mr. Chen isn’t aware."
Hearing him, Ao Yuxia seemed a bit puzzled, then glanced surprised at the nearby Palace Master of Azure Fall.
"Our Taixu MiaoMiao Palace isn’t the Impermanence Pavilion; besides, when the Eastern Emperor Court fell and Generation Emperor was enraged, details about the royal family were internally sealed by us Eastern Continent’s Holy Lands, knowing individuals are countable."
As the Palace Master of Azure Fall responded, Chen Mobai grew even more curious.
Why, as East Continent's Holy Land Sect Master and a Divinity Transformation True Monarch, had he not learned of this?
"The royal lineage of Eastern Emperor Court originates from our Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace’s Yuwen Clan."
Without reservation, Ao Yuxia directly disclosed a revelation that stunned Chen Mobai deeply.
"Isn’t Eastern Emperor Court’s royal family surname Zhao?"
Chen Mobai recalled this particular fact.
"Originally, Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace was the Generation Emperor’s residence in Tianhe Realm, Yuwen Clan became heirs of the Generation Emperor. However, in Central State, many Daoist traditions are left by Upper Realm Daoist Monarchs, and even the Generation Emperor needed to show respect."
"Thus, heirs of the Generation Emperor couldn’t achieve Perfection in Central State using the Six Dragons Imperial Heaven Scripture, leading to a split into four branches migrating to other four lands, changing their surnames to avoid attention."
"Among them, heirs in East Continent changed their surname to Zhao, receiving the Heavenly Sovereign’s protection and aid from sages like Dao and Virtue Demon Vibration, gradually overcoming obstacles to establish the Eastern Emperor Court..."
