I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1689: Chapter 854: Cheng Xuan Leaves the Pass

“Daoist, what insights have you gained from it?”

When Chen Mobai returned the Mo Bao Sword Scar of Ancestor Baiguang to Zuo Gong, the latter asked curiously.

As the director of The Sword Control Department, Zuo Gong’s greatest privilege was to comprehend this.

However, his realm was not sufficient; he only proved part of his Sword Destruction Collection, finding a key element to complete the theory.

“The sword Dao realm of Ancestor Baiguang is unfathomable. Using it as a reference, I have reinforced the foundation of my own Sword Dao, but I haven’t comprehended much else.”

By Chen Mobai’s nature, he would definitely boast a little.

But thinking of the Eastern Wilderness, where Mo Douguang in the Core Formation realm had already comprehended Sword Wipeout Thunder Sound, he felt his achievements somewhat unremarkable.

“The foundation is the most crucial. If it is not solid, everything built upon it is a castle in the air. Daoist Mobai, laying such an unparalleled foundation, might become the second to entrust the primordial spirit and achieve sword Dao transcendence!”

Zuo Gong imagined the best possibility after hearing this.

Even if Chen Mobai continued to explain that he merely reinforced his foundation, he still assumed that Elder Chunyang was being modest.

After all, who in the entire Immortal Gate didn’t know that Elder Chunyang was an unparalleled sword Dao genius like Ancestor Baiguang? If not distracted by trivial matters, his future sword Dao achievements might surpass Ancestor Baiguang.

Chen Mobai explained a bit more, seeing that Zuo Gong’s self-assured imagination had taken over, he said no more.

After all, in the Immortal Gate, he already had so many halos; another one wouldn’t hurt.

“How is the situation in the Treasure Trove?”

At this moment, Zhuang Jialan also came in, and Chen Mobai asked her.

Today, she notified him of an abnormal fluctuation of spiritual energy in the depths of the Treasure Trove, prompting him to stop cultivating and hurriedly bring the Mo Bao Sword Scar back to Crimson Mountain.

“The spiritual energy fluctuations in the Treasure Trove have reached the fifth rank. Yuxiao Superior sent a message that the Yuping Small Realm is also trembling…”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai knew that Master Chengxuan’s divinity transformation had taken a crucial step.

“You stay here, ready to activate the large formation to seal it at any time. I’ll go down and take a look.”

Chen Mobai told Zhuang Jialan and the teachers of the Daoist Academy, then performed Void Walk, stepping into the depths of the Treasure Trove.

“You’re here!”

Yuxiao Superior nodded at Chen Mobai, his expression slightly solemn.

“Has the principal begun the divinity transformation?”

Chen Mobai asked, then used his Echoes in the Void technique to listen to the surrounding spiritual energy fluctuations.

“The spiritual energy fluctuation here has reached the fifth rank, even more so inside, indicating that step has been taken.”

As Yuxiao Superior spoke, Chen Mobai also heard the slightly overwhelmed groans of the Vermillion Fruit Tree.

As a continuous stream of fire spiritual power poured into the Yuping Small Realm, much of it was intercepted by the tree.

Having starved for a long time, it did not expect the feast to last this long.

Especially today, as the speed at which spiritual energy poured in suddenly surged, it continued to absorb with its sprawling branches and leaves, eating until it almost choked.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai immediately approached the Vermillion Fruit Tree, transferring his Pure Yang True Qi into it, using the Flame Lighting Technique to help it digest.

[Thank you, Daoist!]

In a short while, the relieved Vermillion Fruit Tree conveyed a grateful thought to Chen Mobai.

[Do you know what’s happening inside?]

Chen Mobai also sent a thought to inquire.

The Vermillion Fruit Tree, however, said it did not know, as it was merely the guardian of the gateway to the small realm and couldn’t see inside.

It could, however, roughly sense a Rank-4 force undergoing a transformation to Rank-5.

That was indeed stepping into divinity transformation!

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai nodded gently, then informed Yuxiao Superior of this news, whose expression grew more worrisome.

“Attempting divinity transformation here is too difficult. One must at least go to the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains to borrow the sixth-grade spirit vein.”

Upon hearing Yuxiao Superior’s words, Chen Mobai empathically nodded.

Whenever he broke through a realm, he always prepared the best external conditions.

The fifth-grade spirit vein of Crimson Mountain, although barely adequate for divinity transformation, would have meant he didn’t need to shut Little Red Sky, thereby slightly increasing the principal’s success rate, if a sixth-grade spirit vein were available.

If in the future he undergoes divinity transformation without a sixth-grade spirit vein, at least a thousand supreme-grade Spirit Stones would be necessary.

As Chen Mobai thought of this, the concentration of spiritual energy around him suddenly increased by another level!

Even the flame essence within the magma was extracted, transforming into streams of scarlet storms rushing toward the Vermillion Fruit Tree’s canopy.

There appeared to be an invisible black hole there, consuming all the incoming spiritual energy.

Soon, Yuxiao Superior struggled with the intense heat, lightly waving a hand, enveloping himself in a jade-white flowing light.

Chen Mobai, however, remained unphased.

In fact, in such an environment, he felt his Pure Yang True Qi become even more active.

As time went on, the fire spiritual energy in the depths of the Treasure Trove became even more dense.

Bian Jingchun from the Red City Cave Heaven also called, informing him that the spiritual energy level of the entire cave heaven had suddenly dropped by one level.

This was caused by the massive spirit vein of Crimson Mountain being absorbed by the Yuping Small Realm.

Yet this news brought Chen Mobai a sigh of relief.

Being able to achieve this meant that Master Chengxuan had indeed taken that step.

Now, it was just a matter of whether he would succeed!

At this moment, Chen Mobai did not leave any further; he stayed with Yuxiao Superior at the entrance of the Yuping Small Realm, waiting for the result.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.

The amount of spiritual energy deep within the Treasure Trove, after reaching the level of a Rank-5, plateaued and ceased to rise.

However, Chen Mobai learned through the Sky-Net Management Bureau that the spiritual vein core of the entire Crimson Mountain, after shutting down Little Red Sky, had already reached intermediate-grade of the fifth rank.

Whether this was sufficient for the process of Divinity Transformation, Chen Mobai did not know, but it was all that the Immortal Gate could provide.

Year after year.

Chen Mobai had already been stationed at the Dance Tool Dao Academy for over two years.

The Divinity Transformation process was even longer than he had imagined.

Thankfully, he had foreseen this and had gone to the Eastern Wilderness to discuss it with Qing Nu beforehand; otherwise, with so long not returning, she surely would have worried.

“Hmm, the fluctuations in spiritual energy have recently begun to weaken, it seems the result is near.”

Leading Star Ancestor was very concerned about Master Chengxuan’s Divinity Transformation and called Chen Mobai again, who truthfully reported the situation here.

“Then there’s still twenty-six days.”

Leading Star Ancestor, after listening, calculated and gave a specific time.

Ending the call, Chen Mobai was somewhat skeptical.

Leading Star Ancestor had not even visited; could he calculate so precisely just from his few words?

Twenty-six days later, when the void gate of the Yuping Small Realm above the Vermillion Fruit Tree opened, Chen Mobai realized his own shallowness.

He underestimated the deification of this Immortal Gate!

Is this the “realm of infinity” of the Guidance Book!

Back then, was it a bit hasty to refuse Leading Star Ancestor’s deduction?

Just as Chen Mobai was pondering, two figures had already stepped out from the Yuping Small Realm.

“Oh, Little Chen, you’ve actually formed your Nascent Soul!”

An elderly man with hair and beard entirely red saw Chen Mobai and was astounded greatly.

“Greetings, Principal!”

Chen Mobai immediately flew up, saluted Master Chengxuan, and couldn’t help but check him over, wanting to know whether he had succeeded in Divinity Transformation.

“We haven’t been in seclusion for a hundred and twenty years, right!?”

Daoist Yu Yi, with an elegant temperament, noticed Chen Mobai had indeed reached Nascent Soul Realm and slightly furrowed her delicate brows, her expression also full of surprise.

Theoretically, for Chen Mobai to obtain Infant Forming Spirit Medicine, even with the support of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, would take at least a hundred and twenty years.

“Greetings Daoist Yu Yi, you and the principal have been in seclusion for thirty-two years and three months. As for why I was able to form my Nascent Soul in such a short time, it is merely because I did not wait for the Infant Forming Spirit Medicine from the Three Great Halls of the Immortal Gate.”

Chen Mobai courteously answered Daoist Yu Yi’s question, after which she and Master Chengxuan widened their eyes.

Succeeding without taking Infant Forming Spirit Medicine—this news was even more shocking than Chen Mobai’s success in forming his Nascent Soul.

After all, both knew of Chen Mobai’s Qualification of Deification and believed that with Infant Forming Spirit Medicine, this junior would surely succeed in forming his Nascent Soul.

But now it was told to them that Chen Mobai’s aptitude was so extraordinary that even forming a Nascent Soul did not require external items. This unprecedented event in the thousands of years history of the Immortal Gate left these two seasoned Nascent Soul cultivators extremely shocked.

“Had I known you had succeeded in forming your Nascent Soul, I would’ve taken that step across!”

At this time, Master Chengxuan sighed and said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai knew he definitely had not succeeded in Divinity Transformation, feeling a bit regretful in his heart.

“May I ask the Principal, can the Blooming Moment truly enable Nascent Soul cultivators to perceive the realm of Divinity Transformation?”

Chen Mobai couldn’t resist his curiosity and opened his mouth to ask.

“Yes, after refining the Immortal Flower bloomed by the Fire Spirit Tree, my realm quickly reached the peak of Nascent Soul. But after taking half a step, a formula clearly appeared in my mind, reserved for me by Leading Star Ancestor’s Guidance Book realm of infinity, calculating my probability of breakthrough based on my current realm.”

“If I take that step, there’s only an 8.6% chance of successfully achieving Divinity Transformation!”

“This success rate is really too low, coupled with the thought that the Dance Tool Dao Academy is in dire straits and still needs this old body of mine to support it, so I decided to give up upon consideration.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai understood why Master Chengxuan showed such emotion upon seeing he had succeeded in forming his Nascent Soul.

An 8.6% probability—not even one-tenth!

That’s a bit too risky!

Chen Mobai fully understood Master Chengxuan’s choice.

For he too was such a cautious person.
