I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2523: 1134: Claiming the Dragon Gall

With Chen Mobai's prowess in spellcasting battles, he surely wouldn't overlook the chance as Da Kong True Monarch activated the Void Lock.

Right away, the Yi Yuan Avatar directed the Water Element True Power encircling the gash on the elderly dragon's spine, merging it into the Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam through the Five Elements Transformation Method.

As this Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam derived from the old dragon's own strength, the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl overlooked it, letting the beam bore straight through the dragon's form.

The full slab of hide across the old dragon's back got stripped off by the Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam, slicing through the dragon's entire frame in a flash.

Viewed from afar, it resembled vibrant rays, akin to razor edges, stabbing into the old dragon's dorsal and lumbar areas, with scales tumbling down like a downpour, while icy-power-laced blood drops spurted forth.

The abrupt piercing injuries forced a stifled howl from the old dragon.

For millennia, it hadn't endured any harm.

The Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam that lanced inside even tore apart and divided its liver and gall at the midsection.

Enraged by the searing agony, the old dragon surged forth unstoppable true power from its True Spirit Essence Blood via the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl, bursting from its maw toward every side.

Even as Da Kong True Monarch hastily undid the Void Lock, his complexion remained ashen, with crimson trickling from his nostrils.

Shenxi promptly produced a medicinal pill for him. He gulped it down without delay and processed it internally, quelling the raging forces and the chaos in his Purple Mansion Sea of Knowledge.

Beneath the detonation of the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl, both the Sixth Rank Dan Cauldron and the Mysterious Nether Immortal Light from the Tongtian Refining Road Tower proved unable to endure.

Though the Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam remained elusive, it was undoubtedly unstoppable.

Yet Chen Mobai had already fulfilled his goal.

The final thread of the Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam extracted the severed portion of the dragon's gall from the laceration on the old dragon's back, sliding swiftly into the plummeting Hun Yuan Bell.

The force of the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl slammed into the pale-gray bell's surface, triggering another cataclysmic clash between the two Sixth Rank Artifacts.

This time, positioned over the Mysterious Sea, the Hun Yuan Bell faced swift containment by the blue radiance.

The Yi Yuan Avatar extended his right hand, spanning the vast Mysterious Sea, to seize the Hun Yuan Bell, gripping its handle and shoving it downward firmly.

In that instant, the Primordial Dao Fruit's power reached its peak.

Despite the overwhelming and endless Water Element Great Dao True Power of the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl, it dispersed partially right then.

But shortly after, a more potent azure glow jetted from the old dragon's jaws, and the Hun Yuan Bell could no longer hold it back, getting hurled aside with a booming toll.

Nevertheless, Chen Mobai had secured the dragon gall by then.

The old dragon yearned to reclaim its gall, yet the Hun Yuan Bell had been hoisted by the Yi Yuan Avatar, now hovering over the East Barbarians' frontier.

While it dominated unchallenged atop the Mysterious Sea, venturing onto solid ground would mean facing not just the four Eastern Continent Deity Transformation cultivators ahead, but Chen Mobai himself could impede it.

Furthermore, the enigmatic Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light Beam had truly daunted it.

The Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court hadn't even emerged during Yi Yuan True Monarch's unchallenged era in the Tianhe Realm, so though tales of this supreme technique had reached its ears, experiencing it firsthand caught it off guard.

Without the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl's safeguard, it could have been bisected entirely.

Truly, the pinnacle legacy from an Ascended Monk's mightiest art.

Deep down, the old dragon even sensed relief, having probed the technique with merely half a gall, gaining some understanding, vowing not to fall for such tricks again so readily.

“Wait for it, I will return to flood the East Continent.”

Harboring that resolve, the old dragon issued a final threat and plunged into the Mysterious Sea's abyss.

Chen Mobai and his companions obviously refrained from chasing it down for the kill.

Once submerged in the Mysterious Sea, the old dragon could wield the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl with amplified command. Pursuing it underwater might flip the script, turning them into the hunted.

“This disaster, who can say when it'll be fully quelled.”

Shenxi gazed at the receding waves, stripped of the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl's might, and let out an involuntary sigh.

From the moment the Human Race established their Dao heritage in the Eastern Continent, clashes with diverse Demon Race Royal Courts raged without end. Only after wiping out three Major Royal Courts at the Human Emperor's zenith did it trigger the Eastern Emperor Court's downfall and fragmentation.

Of them all, the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court's menace has persisted the longest.

At the Eastern Emperor Court's height, a Deity Transformation True Monarch from the Fanhai Sect's Hall of Ten Directions stood vigilant there, fending off assaults from the Mysterious Sea's Monster Race.

In the climactic clash against the Nine Great Saints, three Deity Transformation True Monarchs from the Hall of Ten Directions even fought on this very field.

Still, the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court emerged unscathed.

The Profound Abyss True Monarch of Submerged Abyss Island fell, the Xuan Guang True Monarch of the Fanhai Sect sustained critical wounds, and the Fu Hai True Monarch of the Place of Observation got confined and vanished into the Sea Eye.

That very confrontation exposed the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl's formidable power to the Eastern Continent.

Thankfully, back then, the Eastern Emperor Court shone at its brightest, and the Golden Flood Dragon King of the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court met his end, securing victory for the Human Race on that front.

Ever since, the Eastern Continent's Righteous Dao has steered clear of confronting the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court to evade such dread.

They knew that an all-out war would inflict devastating tolls on the Eastern Continent's Righteous Dao.

And now, this latent peril has burst forth at last.

The assault on the Nine Heavens Morality Sect was the first blow, the inundation of the East Barbarians the second; misfortunes come in trios. Today, the ancient Flood Dragon's stance confirms its refusal to make peace. From here on, relentless trials await this region.

“Sect Master Chen, our entire sect's disciples reside in the East Land, so the defense of this battlefield might burden you.”

Shenxi expressed with some awkwardness, since the East Barbarians' growth was originally meant as a frontline for the impending showdown between the Eastern Continent's Righteous Dao and the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court, distant from the East Land to shield those sacred sites.

Now that this territory falls under the Five Elements Sect's control, if Chen Mobai wishes to preserve it, he must bear this obligation.

“It's my responsibility.”

Chen Mobai accepted without evasion, having braced for the gravest outcomes after integrating the East Barbarians into the Five Elements Sect's holdings.

That said, he seized the moment to seek certain resources and personnel.

The conflict with the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court will dominate the Eastern Continent's Righteous Dao for hundreds or even thousands of years.

With the Five Elements Sect volunteering to lead the charge, all three Deity Transformation experts present consented to his stipulations.

Ni Yuanzhong went further, pledging to dispatch ten Nascent Soul Elders to bolster the Five Elements Sect upon his return.

“The Mysterious Sea's Monster Race numbers in the legions, so I'll rally the Eastern Continent's Righteous Forces to the East Barbarians, much like during the Dongling Domain's expansion.”

Shenxi affirmed with a nod and his commitment.

However, the Dao Morale Sect spearheaded that prior initiative, whereas the ongoing war against the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court falls to the Five Elements Sect.

Whether the Five Elements Sect can galvanize these powers with the same zeal as in the Dongling Domain hinges on their own prowess.

After all, to inspire the Eastern Continent's major factions then, the Dao Morale Sect offered rarities such as the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, Coagulation Infant Pill, and Mystical Ice Spirit Liquid.

Chen Mobai held no such concerns. In the past, to honor the Dao Morale Sect, Danxia Pavilion and South Mountain Shop restrained from supplying premium resources to the East Land.

But amid warfare, such restraint becomes unnecessary.

An array of superior Elixirs, Magic Artifacts, and Talismans crafted via Immortal Gate techniques can now emerge, astonishing the Eastern Continent's cultivators.

“To eradicate this threat for good, we must address the Dingyuan Zhenhai Pearl. Might we borrow the Primordial Water Control Banner? I intend to refine the Primordial Clock using Mount Wudi's Sixth Rank Spirit Vein, aiming to upgrade this Magic Artifact to Sixth Rank Superior Grade. With elemental dominance, it could fully overpower the Sea Suppressing Bead.”

Following this skirmish, Chen Mobai burned to strengthen the Primordial Clock.

He had thoroughly integrated the Primordial Dao Fruit, rendering the Primordial Clock fully responsive, merely awaiting a Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner's expertise to pursue the upgrade.

Attaining Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner status demands forging a Sixth Rank Magic Artifact.

Chen Mobai had once elevated the Primordial Yang Sword through sheer fortune, qualifying him marginally as a Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner in the Tianhe Realm.

Yet Chen Mobai demands excellence from himself, aspiring to the Immortal Gate's benchmarks.

In the Immortal Gate, no Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner has appeared, but the Sixth Rank threshold remains consistent.

It necessitates producing three Sixth Rank creations.

Beyond the Primordial Yang Sword, Chen Mobai labors on the Purple Electric Sword and the Douluo Eight Scenic Lantern. Both are advancing, though reaching Sixth Rank demands extended effort, perhaps endlessly. Indeed, Sixth Rank Magic Artifacts transcend mere components; they demand embedding the Great Tao.

In this bind, he deems it wise to enlist aid from peers, leveraging materials for triumph.

“Do you aim to advance Sixth Rank Magic Artifacts? Are you seeking to become a Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner, Sect Master Chen?”

At these words, Shenxi and the rest showed profound surprise.

Within the Tianhe Sovereign's domain, among surviving Deity Transformation beings, the Flame Immortal commands the pinnacle of artifact forging skills, yet all ventures into Sixth Rank Magic Artifacts have faltered.

Should Chen Mobai succeed in upgrading the Primordial Clock, he'd stand unrivaled as the Tianhe Realm's premier Artifact Refiner.

“Yes, beyond liquefying Mount Wudi's Sixth Rank Spirit Vein, acquiring matching Sixth Rank Five Elements Essence would sharply boost the odds of success.”

Grasping Chen Mobai's aim from his statement, the three comprehended fully.

“The Dao Morale Sect's stores hold a Sixth Rank Azure Blue Essence Crystal. I'll confer with the elders upon return, though I expect they'll honor Sect Master Chen's feats against the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court and gladly provide it.”

Shenxi voiced his backing without pause, deepening Chen Mobai's regard for him.

“I possess a sachet of Leaving Fire Divine Sand, encompassing earth-fire dual-attribute Sixth Rank Spirit Material…”

Da Kong True Monarch promptly withdrew a container from his Storage Bag.

Ni Yuanzhong, however, seemed abashed, as the Nine Heavens Morality Sect's vault lacked fitting Sixth Rank Spirit Material for the Primordial Clock; their prior Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder Metal had been a prized asset.
