I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2533 - 1141: Six Imperial Scriptures Perfection
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Chen Mobai observed the Primordial Clock initiating its metamorphosis and nodded slightly in satisfaction.
This transformation confirms the upgrade's triumph; the next step hinges on how quickly the Primordial Clock fully assimilates the Boundary Stone.
Successfully refining it opens the door to evolving into the Primordial Golden Dou, whereas failure would confine it to merely Sixth Rank Superior Grade.
Naturally, Chen Mobai desires triumph, as the silver droplets descending from the Boundary Stone, guided by "The Union of Differences," prove ideal for the Primordial Clock to ingest and process.
Yet another layer of stone sloughed away, causing the clock's white jade-resembling surface to glow with a soft, luminous radiance. Faint mysterious silver motifs appeared to glide across it, akin to vital lights twirling around the Primordial Clock. In their wake, stone coverings fractured and tumbled down, slowly unveiling the entirely renewed Primordial Clock.
As the final stone layers dropped, a remarkably harmonious and sharp bell toll resounded across Mount Wudi.
In that precise moment, the Primordial Clock's appearance shifted in a profoundly dramatic way. Unlike its former coarse and archaic grey-white form, it now emerged as a graceful and serene White Jade Bell, flawlessly refined and immaculate throughout. The silver motifs coursing within and upon the clock's walls evoked images of propitious clouds, infusing an aura of enigma.
Following the Primordial Clock's full metamorphosis, gusts and vapors abruptly swirled atop Mount Wudi. The already abundant Sixth Rank Spiritual Energy seemed seized by an unseen massive palm, yanked straight from the earth's core. Bursts of vibrant light masses, resembling raging streams, were devoured entirely by the White Jade Bell.
The rear mountain.
Earth Virtue detected the once intensely concentrated Sixth Rank Spiritual Energy surrounding him swiftly diminishing. In just a handful of breaths, it plummeted to Fifth Rank Superior Grade, then Fifth Rank Middle Grade, and ultimately Fifth Rank Lower Grade. It only halted right at the brink of falling below Fifth Rank.
At that instant, he understood that the Primordial Clock had elevated to Sixth Rank Superior Grade.
Earth Virtue gazed toward the front mountain, his features etched with intricate emotions.
This feat accomplished, Chen Mobai's standing could now at minimum equal that of Yi Yuan True Monarch.
Facing such a rival, even the legendary Divinity Transformation cultivators from the Dao Palace's past might not guarantee victory, to say nothing of himself.
Upon embracing his own ordinariness and defeat, Earth Virtue abruptly experienced a surge of insight.
...
Xiao Yuli lacked the leisure to grieve the severe decline of Mount Wudi's Spirit Vein; witnessing the Primordial Clock's triumphant ascent to Sixth Rank Superior Grade filled her with elation, and she voiced her admiration: "The Sect Master’s Artifact Refining Technique is unparalleled; not even Yi Yuan Ancestor before Ascendance had reached your realm."
"It was simply enhancing an existing item, far from matching the Ancestor's feat of forging the Primordial Clock from nothing," Chen Mobai responded with notable modesty, for he had extracted countless Dao Fruits from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree and thus recognized that true creation posed the greatest challenge.
The route for the Primordial Clock to reach Sixth Rank Superior Grade had been charted long ago. Chen Mobai's role was confined to sourcing the required materials and aiding in the refinement of the Spirit Vein and similar tasks.
All aspects adhered to predefined paths.
Should he attempt to forge a Sixth Rank Superior Grade Primordial Clock anew, success would prove nearly unattainable even with ample resources.
"Yet, the foremost Artifact Refiner across the Five Continents and Four Seas!"
Xiao Yuli's declaration prompted an irrepressible smile from Chen Mobai.
He raised his eyes to the Primordial Clock, now at Sixth Rank Superior Grade and persistently processing the Boundary Stone, surmising the effort would demand considerable duration, before withdrawing a mat and seating himself right outside Yi Yuan Hall.
"In your regular practice of the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture, do any doubts arise? I possess some free time at present; I could clarify them and even illustrate a few techniques for you."
With the Primordial Clock's elevation complete, Chen Mobai no longer required manual application of "The Union of Differences" to direct it; the artifact could now proceed independently with refinement. Therefore, he opted to mentor Xiao Yuli.
"Thank you, Sect Master. Yes, I have numerous queries!"
Xiao Yuli's delight was evident upon hearing his offer.
Receiving direct instruction from a Divinity Transformation elder within the sect represents an elite opportunity, one rare even in Central State.
Moreover, Chen Mobai had mastered the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture to a proficiency surpassed only by Yi Yuan Ancestor himself, and as a renowned Great Sage and adept instructor, his guidance surpassed in value, for Xiao Yuli, even that of the Ancestor in person.
Aloft Mount Wudi, the Primordial Clock hovered midair, repeatedly emitting pristine and tranquil chimes that cleansed the spirit and soul.
Xiao Yuli shut her eyes and settled onto the mat inside the hall, internalizing Chen Mobai's elucidations, as her form blazed with pentachromatic splendor, unmistakably indicating a profounder comprehension of the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture.
Slowly, wisps of Spiritual Energy converged upon her, building an impetus toward shattering her bottleneck, which elicited astonishment on Chen Mobai's countenance.
He had not foreseen Xiao Yuli's aptitude reaching such heights, propelling her toward Nascent Soul Middle Stage in this very moment.
Nevertheless, with Mount Wudi's Spirit Vein now wholly dominated by the Primordial Clock, an insufficiency of Spiritual Energy might thwart her breakthrough.
Considering this, Chen Mobai produced the Heavenly Bead and positioned it above Xiao Yuli's crown, whence it promptly discharged untainted Five Elements Spiritual Energy.
Subsequently, he extracted a few Supreme Grade Spirit Stones, infused within Mount Wudi's Spirit Vein, and established a Formation encircling her to furnish Spiritual Energy while severing Xiao Yuli and the Heavenly Bead from Mount Wudi's influence.
Once arranged, the faint tension that had marred Xiao Yuli's demeanor swiftly dissipated.
Chen Mobai divided his focus across three endeavors: monitoring the Primordial Clock's assimilation of the Boundary Stone, overseeing Xiao Yuli's cultivation inside Yi Yuan Hall, though the bulk of his thoughts remained immersed in exploring the Six Imperial Scripture.
