I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2536 - 1143: Law Domain Complete (Part 2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Take, for instance, his cultivation had reached the fourth level of the 'Void Illusion' within the Myriad Phenomena Return to Origin Realm.
Although Chen Mobai had established a Law Domain, it remained only in its early stages.
To achieve true mastery in the Law Domain, it would amount to genuinely parting the heavens and forging a world.
This stands as the description in the Mahayana Book, from which even the Three Thousand Great Dao can emerge.
At present, limited by his Divinity Transformation Realm, he could only refine the Great Dao he had grasped inside it, while the remaining parts were filled with mere illusions.
With this in mind, Chen Mobai activated the Law Domain anew.
The Candle Dragon Method Phase shut its eyes, causing the region around Mount Wudi to fall back into pitch-black darkness.
The cultivators from Yi Yuan Immortal City, who had just felt a sense of relief, abruptly discovered themselves removed from their known surroundings once again.
Among them, the more fiery-tempered individuals started to swear and call for a swift execution or being torn apart.
Chen Mobai granted their demands, employing the might of the Law Domain to enclose each of them separately.
Nevertheless, his primary focus stayed on Lian Shui, the Nascent Soul Cultivator.
After all, the foe he intended to confront with the Law Domain was the ancient Flood Dragon, a peak Fifth Rank True Spirit.
'May I ask, senior...'
Lian Shui, sensing he had met an expert, straightened his Daoist robe and moved to bow, but suddenly a blazing, acrid gust of air forced its way into his mouth and nostrils.
His Divine Sense flared outward, and he swiftly realized he was now in a desert, where intense spiritual power of fire churned in the emptiness, and rivers of magma burst from the sands, rushing toward him like raging floods.
'Mercy, senior! My sect master is Chen Guixian...'
Lian Shui, aware his adversary was no less than at the Divinity Transformation stage, refrained from fighting back and immediately begged for clemency.
With those words spoken, the magma that had reached his feet, searing and scorching him, abruptly evaporated like mist and disappeared.
Right away, Lian Shui sensed his return to Yi Yuan Immortal City.
In the heavens above, golden rays parted once more, allowing daylight to pour down.
Atop Mount Wudi.
Chen Mobai, feeling somewhat bored, halted his use of the Law Domain.
Lian Shui couldn't detect that most of the scenes from moments ago were fabrications, given his still modest realm.
He flicked his hand, a silver gleam flashing in his palm, calling forth yet another aspect of the Law Domain's capabilities.
Lian Shui, who had only just returned to Yi Yuan Immortal City and exhaled in relief, suddenly got dragged into an unknown location again.
On this occasion, no veil of darkness covered it, allowing him to perceive the truth of the environment.
In the middle rose a jade-hued Spirit Tree, glowing with multicolored radiance, heavy with vivid flowers, and with fruits of diverse hues faintly discernible.
The Five Elements Spirit Tree!
Lian Shui immediately identified this Spirit Plant, revered as a top-tier heavenly treasure by those who practice Primordial True Qi.
As he geared up to inspect it more carefully, a burst of silver light dazzled his vision, and his form was shifted elsewhere instantaneously.
Upon reopening his eyes, Lian Shui discovered he was at the peak of Mount Wudi.
Under the Law Domain's influence, Chen Mobai harnessed its authority to draw living entities inside, then applied the Void Shifting Technique to bring them right to his side in a flash.
Seeing Chen Mobai seated in a meditative pose on a cushion, Lian Shui grasped the situation, his knees buckling as he offered a profound bow: 'I failed to recognize the sect master's presence; please pardon my lack of proper welcome!'
Chen Mobai gestured dismissively, an unseen force raising Lian Shui: 'Over these two years, I've been helping advance the Primordial Clock here on Mount Wudi and gained insight into a supreme Divine Power. I couldn't help but try it out, which unintentionally pulled you all in...'
Upon hearing this, Lian Shui shook his head vigorously, insisting that assisting the sect master's test was his privilege.
Noting his accommodating attitude, Chen Mobai experienced a touch of awkwardness himself.
Before the Yi Yuan Dao Palace pledged loyalty, Lian Shui's demeanor toward the Five Elements Sect had lacked warmth, keeping him stationed idly in Yi Yuan Immortal City for years.
Looking back, if positions were reversed, Chen Mobai would probably act similarly.
At minimum, Lian Shui's loyalty stayed true to his sect.
With that realization, Chen Mobai produced a Jade Slip and etched it with his Divine Sense: 'This is the Black Emperor Abyssal Scripture, a Deity Transformation Technique from the Longevity Sect. Study it well; consider it my recompense to you.'
Lian Shui, having risen moments before, pondered how to bridge the gap with the sect master when Chen Mobai bestowed such an extraordinary boon.
His legs weakened once more, and without Chen Mobai handing over the Jade Slip, he might have dropped to his knees again.
'The sect master's vast kindness will be etched in my heart forever. If you desire another trial, I'm prepared anytime.'
Clutching the Deity Transformation Technique close, Lian Shui expressed deep gratitude to Chen Mobai, cherishing this stroke of fortune.
He counted himself exceedingly fortunate, aware that the other Nascent Soul Cultivators in Yi Yuan Immortal City had all gone to the Battlefield of Eastern Yi.
If not, this opportunity would never have come his way.
'No need; your Cultivation Level remains insufficient; reaching Divinity Transformation is necessary.'
Chen Mobai declined with a shake of his head, and Lian Shui agreed with a nod, then remained standing, ready for the sect master's commands.
At that instant, a pentachrome glow emanated from the Yi Yuan Hall, accompanied by an aura of evolution that rose and turned into brilliant five-colored light, with distant thunderous booms faintly sounding.
Primordial Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder!
Witnessing this, Lian Shui recalled the mighty art described in the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture.
Due to Chen Mobai's exploits in East Wu, this had spread throughout the East Continent, and any cultivator wielding the Primordial Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder would inspire awe and caution.
'Thank you, sect master, for your tutelage. This disciple has achieved breakthrough successfully.'
Xiao Yuli's voice echoed from inside the Yi Yuan Hall, and before she finished speaking, she shifted into a five-colored Escaping Light, arriving before Chen Mobai to show her respects.
'Oh, is Elder Lian Shui here too?'
After her salutation, Xiao Yuli spotted Lian Shui nearby, expressing slight astonishment.
'The moment draws near.'
Before Lian Shui could explain, Chen Mobai uttered these words.
Overhead, the Primordial Clock, now reshaped into a White Jade Bell, absorbed the final piece of the Boundary Stone, releasing a tremendous and expansive void power that etched silver-white cloud motifs both inside and on the bell's surface.
Since Chen Mobai's arrival at Mount Wudi, fully three years had elapsed.
Throughout these three years, the Primordial Clock labored ceaselessly around the clock, starting slow but gaining speed, until it fully refined that massive chunk of Boundary Stone.
In those three years, Chen Mobai had also completed the Six Imperial Scripture, advancing his domain to a full Law Domain.
All the elements needed to vanquish the old Flood Dragon aligned perfectly right then.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Primordial Clock pealed with intensely fervent tones, brimming with an immense power it had never known, yearning to unleash its upgraded might.
[Master, let me clash with the Deep Abyss's Sea Suppressing Bead!]
The Primordial Clock conveyed its desire to Chen Mobai; during the prior ten-year conflict, it had suffered intense suppression from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court's bead, and under the disadvantage of elemental opposition, it was readily shattered by the Sea Suppressing Bead, harboring deep resentment.
'Hold on; one final procedure remains!'
Chen Mobai offered a faint smile, and abruptly, while seated cross-legged on the mat, his entire form glowed with radiant colorful Immortal Light. Subsequently, a colossal thousand-meter figure materialized, dominating the mountaintop, grasping the evolved Primordial Clock.
With clear resonant rings, having ascended to Sixth Rank Superior Grade and integrated the Boundary Stone, the Primordial Clock willingly and gleefully allowed itself to be held by the Yi Yuan Avatar, settling before Chen Mobai.
Chen Mobai extended his right index finger, softly pressing the innermost core of this White Jade Bell.
The power of the End, which had awakened within him after defeating the White Bone Demon King, morphed into a dark golden streak, crafting a mark at his fingertip, engraved into the heart of the Primordial Clock.
Relative to the Primordial, Five Elements, and Void powers, this End force comprised only a mere ten-thousandth portion of the Primordial Clock.
Yet, once Chen Mobai imprinted this fingertip mark, the four Great Dao powers within the Primordial Clock abruptly harmonized, the bell's mouth tilting upward as a torrent of golden light shot toward the sky, forming a terrifying energy wave that made Xiao Yuli and Lian Shui sense an overwhelming doom from which flight seemed impossible.
