I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2526 - 1136: Earth-Shattering Secrets

Situated in the East Barbarians, Wandering Mountain encounters no territorial conflicts following the destruction of the Sun Bathing Sea, thus falling under the possession of the Five Elements Sect.

For years, Chen Mobai has ensured its protection, unwilling to let Da Kong True Monarch and his companions claim the rewards.

"Could there be risks within? Considering it originates from the Eastern Emperor Court."

Chen Mobai offered a gentle warning, yet Da Kong True Monarch appeared oblivious.

"No need to fret, I'll place a marker prior to entering. Should peril arise, I can exit immediately."

With assurance, Da Kong True Monarch declared, even giving Chen Mobai a playful wink. Having evaded threats in the Dragon Abyss Cave before, he felt utterly secure here.

"Excellent, splendid."

Upon hearing this, Shenxi and Ni Yuanzhong bobbed their heads in fervent approval.

Both displayed keen fascination toward the Secret Realm housed inside the Boundary Stone.

In truth, this Secret Realm was bestowed by the royals upon the Fanhai Sect, potentially linked to Sixth Rank might.

Their Holy Land would undoubtedly take notice as well.

"In that case, esteemed senior, go ahead."

Realizing persuasion was futile, Chen Mobai resigned himself to uttering these words.

Nevertheless, unveiling the Wandering Mountain relic at this juncture could prove most advantageous for the Five Elements Sect.

Certainly, such an event couldn't evade the awareness of the other Holy Lands.

With four Deity Transformation powerhouses uniting for this, it signaled the Five Elements Sect's intent to share the bounty, fostering peaceful relations.

Within the Tianhe Realm, clashes over secret realm relics abound, particularly those tied to the Eastern Emperor Court, drawing intense scrutiny from Holy Lands and requiring reports to the Upper Realm.

Regardless of the Boundary Stone's contents, the Sixth Rank Spirit Vein at this site remains exclusively for the Five Elements Sect. Assured of this gain, Chen Mobai felt considerably more relaxed.

Once prepared, Da Kong True Monarch advanced toward the Stele with a grave demeanor, lifting his gold and silver rings that swiftly morphed into a streak of silver radiance and vanished.

Observing the lingering traces in the void, Chen Mobai experienced a subtle urge.

Ever since acquiring proficiency in the Void Evasion Technique, it hadn't contributed significantly.

Even so, such an arcane method is scarce within the Taixu MiaoMiao Palace, mastered by only a handful, prompting him to refrain from deploying it presently. He intended to examine it solo after the others departed.

In essence, Da Kong True Monarch served as his advance scout.

"This Spirit Vein thrives vibrantly in this location, perfect for Sect Master Chen's cultivation grounds."

Perceiving Chen Mobai's disposition, Shenxi first affirmed Wandering Mountain's ownership, indicating Dao Morale Sect harbored no designs on the Sixth Rank Spirit Vein.

Ni Yuanzhong concurred with a nod.

"I've refined the Primordial Bead, rendering Spirit Veins unnecessary for me."

Feigning a smile, Chen Mobai responded, though it mattered little to him individually, yet held immense value for the Five Elements Sect.

Notably, amid Divinity Transformation, access to a Sixth Rank Spirit Vein could boost success odds by no less than fifty percent.

He had initially envisioned merging every Spirit Vein from the Eastern Wilderness Borderlands Three Regions into the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, upgrading Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion to Sixth Rank status, albeit at the expense of diminishing others.

Wandering Mountain's presence eliminates that necessity.

"Positioned right at the frontier between East Barbarians and Mysterious Sea, with Sect Master Chen overseeing it, the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court dares not encroach on land."

Shenxi pressed on with complimentary remarks, to which Chen Mobai nodded approvingly before probing about the Eastern Emperor Court and Hall of Ten Directions.

While Yi Yuan Dao Palace's ancient records compile such lore, they pale against the direct insights from Dao Morale Sect and Nine Heavens Morality Sect during that epoch.

"During its zenith, the Eastern Emperor Court boasted scores of Deity Transformation True Monarchs, with the Human Emperor attaining Cultivating Void Great Ability, alongside treasures like the Twelve Golden Armored Celestials as Rank-5 Puppets, rivaling even Daoist Monarchs and True Immortals in the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm as a formidable entity."

"Unsurprisingly, such dominance invited envy. Beyond the Eight Royal Courts of the Demon Tribe, descendants of the eighteen Demon Path sects lurked within the Eastern Emperor Court, exploiting its destiny to unleash the notorious Ghost Mother Calamity."

"To slay the Ghost Mother, the Human Emperor resorted to exceeding the Tianhe Realm's boundaries, suffering grave wounds and compelled to Ascend in search of healing."

"Still, as Holy Lands delved into the disaster's roots, they unearthed numerous concealed facts, including the abrupt vanishing of an extraordinarily potent figure amid the chaos."

"It was the Empress, possessing Cultivating Void cultivation as well. United with the Human Emperor, the Eastern Emperor Court could have averted heavy casualties in the Ghost Mother Calamity."

"Hence, forebears in our sect theorized the Empress as the architect of the Ghost Mother Calamity, scheming either for her own Ascension or the Human Emperor's downfall, at minimum forcing his exit from the Tianhe Realm."

Such arcane lore from millennia past is privy to few in the East Continent. Having absorbed Dao Morale Sect's archives on the Eastern Emperor Court without peers to confide in, Shenxi seized this moment to divulge freely.

"True enough, post-Divinity Transformation, I conversed with various ascendant forebears in the Upper Realm, gleaning profound secrets. For example, the Human Emperor quelling the Ghost Mother Calamity had crested at Cultivating Void's pinnacle within the Tianhe Realm, merely a single stride from Harmonization."

"Achieving Harmonization in the Mortal Realm would render no force across the Five Continents and Four Seas capable of thwarting his conquest of the Tianhe Realm, crowning him the mortal Heavenly Emperor."

"Ascending thereafter, that Human Emperor would seamlessly claim the Heavenly Emperor's Grand Dao, emerging as the fresh Pure Yang Great Power, the Second Generation Heavenly Emperor."

"Yet, clearly, countless Daoist Monarchs and True Immortals opposed this outcome, inciting the Ghost Mother Calamity to hasten his Ascension."

"The Empress's origins shroud in enigma, with no vestiges in the Immortal Realm, prompting ancestors to conjecture her as an invasive Heavenly Demon from beyond."

Inspired by Shenxi's revelations, Ni Yuanzhong too imparted the esoteric knowledge he possessed.

The Heavenly Emperor yearned for transcendence, yet myriad Daoist Monarchs in the Immortal Realm resisted his ascent. As overt interference was impossible, clandestine alliances with a Demon Path titan from Heaven Beyond Heavens likely orchestrated the scheme.

"Dao Brother grasps merely a fragment, not the entirety."

Absorbing Ni Yuanzhong's account, Shenxi inevitably disclosed deeper veiled truths.

Chen Mobai strained to listen, utterly absorbed in the revelations from these two Holy Land Deity Transformation titans, momentarily disregarding Da Kong True Monarch's venture into the Boundary Stone.

"The Ghost Mother Calamity wasn't exclusively propelled by the Empress."

"Per our sect's sages' conjecture, the Human Emperor could well be the actual orchestrator, plotting to harness the Ghost Mother's Extreme Land for a serene Harmonization in the Mortal Realm, thereby unifying the Tianhe Realm."

"But a shrewd observer pierced this ruse and, turning the Ghost Mother against him, propelled that era's Human Emperor skyward."

Shenxi's utterance left Chen Mobai and Ni Yuanzhong profoundly stunned.

Nonetheless, this hypothesis meshes seamlessly with every available hint.

"Your sect truly merits its legacy as the most frequent Imperial Court National Master, unearthing even such profundities."

Sincerely, Ni Yuanzhong lauded Dao Morale Sect for the first time, recognizing that had that era's Human Emperor uncovered these, Dao Morale Sect would have met utter destruction.

Remarkably, the sages of Dao Morale Sect safeguarded this enigma unto the present.

"Hardly; sages of our twin sects have ever advanced with utmost prudence, navigating perils side by side..."

Shenxi responded modestly, conceding that throughout Eastern Continent's human chronicles, numerous Holy Land lineages flourished, yet solely Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Dao Morale Sect endure.

Hence, these twin sects earn the title of Eastern Continent's Ancient Sacred Lands.

Taixu MiaoMiao Palace only relocated to the Eastern Continent after the Eastern Emperor Court's collapse, founding branches and academies; prior, it operated solely as a Commerce Association.

"Precisely who was the paramount entity that propelled that generation's Human Emperor heavenward?"

Intrigued, Chen Mobai pressed onward, interjecting amid their reciprocal acclaim.

"That stays unresolved. Our sect persists in probing this for tens of thousands of years."

Shenxi shook his head, while Ni Yuanzhong naturally lacked insight too.

It lingers as the East Continent's enduring enigma.

"Did the Nine-Headed Great Saint's rise stem from analogous causes?"

Chen Mobai delved deeper, noting the Eastern Emperor Court endured three cataclysms post-founding: the Ghost Mother, the Nine-Headed Great Saint, and the Supreme True Demon.

The Nine-Headed Great Saint's abrupt ascent depleted the Eastern Emperor Court's final reserves. The Human Emperor met his end in combat, alongside most Hall of Ten Directions Deity Transformation luminaries. Post-battle, the court lost its mortal dominion, enabling Holy Lands like Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Dao Morale Sect to declare autonomy, reveling in imperial-free liberty.

The extraterrestrial Supreme True Demon's advent delivered the Eastern Emperor Court's ultimate blow.

Immortal Realm Daoist Monarchs, pooling their might, reshaped heaven and earth, capping Tianhe Realm at Deity Transformation Peak, barring the Heavenly Emperor from mortal meddling.

Devoid of the Heavenly Emperor's radiance, provoked True Spirits from the Eastern Emperor Court's heyday stirred, even seizing the paramount Dragon Capturing Tripod.

Thereafter, all discerned the Eastern Emperor Court as a hollow facade, incapable of sustaining its facade of splendor. Decline accelerated, culminating in total ruin within 800 years, observed by Nine Heavens Morality Sect and fellow Holy Lands.

"The Nine-Headed Great Saint's advent was fortuitous, yet upon displaying prowess, it drew Upper Realm Daoist Monarchs' gaze. Lacking proof, its Mortal Realm Cultivating Void attainment likely stems from Wanling Daojun's legacy."

Shenxi fielded Chen Mobai's query.

Though the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm teems with seventh-rank True Spirits, a hybrid like the Nine-Headed Great Saint, blending diverse bloodlines, demanded a bespoke Cultivation Technique for optimal refinement and Cultivating Void ascent.

Wanling Daojun, progenitor of the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, specialized therein.

"Didn't the Heavenly Emperor demand reckoning?"

Bearing animosities toward the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, Chen Mobai couldn't resist inquiring further.

"The Heavenly Emperor's role demands impartiality. Absent irrefutable proof of Wanling Daojun's role, no action against him was possible. To dispel doubts, Wanling Daojun thereafter barred Ten Thousand Spirits Sect adherents from Central State from treading the Eastern Continent."
