I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2209: Chapter 1022: The Primordial Clock’s Gift

[How did you figure it out?]

The silent Primordial Clock couldn’t help but speak again after hearing Chen Mobai’s words.

[My artifact refining skills are just so-so.] Chen Mobai was quite modest.

But as the supreme treasure refined by the Yi Yuan True Monarch before ascendance, the Primordial Clock could be considered the leader in artifact refining techniques at the Yi Yuan Dao Palace.

[I see, then let me test you...]

The Primordial Clock couldn’t resist asking a few questions about artifact refining, which only a genuine Fifth Rank Artifact Refiner could answer.

Chen Mobai just happened to be such a refiner and was even a Fifth Rank Artifact Refiner from the Immortal Gate, well above the standard in the Tianhe Realm.

He pondered for a moment, and just when the Primordial Clock thought he wouldn’t be able to answer, he provided explanations from an angle it had never heard before.

These answers required even the Primordial Clock some thought to align with its own questions.

Because these answers were even better than what the Primordial Clock had considered.

[Your talent in artifact refining is probably no less than my master’s.]

The Primordial Clock couldn’t help but marvel.

[Not at all, the Grandmaster could refine a Sixth Rank treasure like you, while my best work is only at the Fifth Rank...]

Chen Mobai continued to be humble, but at this moment, the Primordial Clock took the initiative to ask him about his cultivation and artifact refining techniques.

[Before my master ascended, he left me behind, not only to protect his inheritance with a supreme treasure that could stabilize the mountain, but also in case the Dao Palace faced transformative changes and the inheritance was cut off, so that I could be the fallback...]

After confirming that Chen Mobai was the inheritor of the Yi Yuan tradition from the Eastern Wilderness, the Primordial Clock opened up the conversation.

It knew this because, before ascending, the Yi Yuan True Monarch had taken it to subdue the Yellow Dragon.

After suppressing the Yellow Dragon, the Yi Yuan True Monarch spent some time reminiscing about the hard years of pioneering as a cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness.

Because of this, when Li Zhongji came to the Yi Yuan Dao Palace, the Primordial Clock rarely woke up and even became close with him, imparting many of the secret techniques left by the Yi Yuan True Monarch.

[I see, it seems that if it weren’t for you, Li Zhongji wouldn’t have been able to leave Mount Wudi so easily...]

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai immediately used Li Zhongji as a pretext to delve further.

There’s no reason why Li Zhongji could gain the favor of the Primordial Clock, but he couldn’t.

He definitely wanted this supreme treasure of Mount Wudi.

[It’s a bit of a pity about Li Zhongji. If the Dao Palace hadn’t already chosen a Taoist Child and Saintess, with his talent and my support, it would have been inevitable for him to take the position of Taoist Child. Later, Wuming wanted to train him as the next Elder of Earth Virtue, but Li Zhongji was too proud and didn’t want it himself. Wuming gave me face and intervened to request Shenxi from the Dao Morale Sect to refine a batch of Coagulation Infant Pills for him...]

After communication was established, the Primordial Clock began to enthusiastically speak of Li Zhongji’s departure from Mount Wudi and his secrets in establishing a branch sect in the Eastern Wilderness to Chen Mobai.

The Taoist Child and Saintess of the past were all raised and nurtured by the Yi Yuan Dao Palace from a young age. Wuming certainly couldn’t remove his own people for an outsider like Li Zhongji.

If Chen Mobai were in the same position, he would make the same choice.

As they continued chatting, the topic swung back to the Primordial Clock itself.

[When my master ascended, he took me through the Seven Level Heavenly Tribulations, and at the eighth level, I couldn’t withstand it and developed cracks. Afterward, my master threw me down, and I fell back onto Mount Wudi.]

[At that time, I was just at the Sixth Rank Middle Grade, and although the tribulation severely injured me, it also allowed me to experience the baptism of various heavenly tribulations. With the master’s help, I absorbed a lot of Innate Qi, so during the thousands of years on Mount Wudi, I not only healed my injuries but also reached the Peak of the Sixth Rank Middle Grade.]

[However, if I want to take the next step in the Tianhe Realm, it’s extremely difficult. Firstly, there’s insufficient spiritual energy, and secondly, I need a true new master to refine me, or a Sixth Rank Artifact Refiner...]

After confirming Chen Mobai’s skill level in artifact refining, there seemed to be a hint of expectation in its words.

[That would be me. In the entire Tianhe Realm, I’m the only one who can meet these requirements simultaneously.]

Chen Mobai naturally understood and confidently transmitted his voice.

[To thoroughly refine me, even if I cooperate, it would at least require a Realm of Divinity Transformation, and it would also require practicing the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture of my master, or refining the Primordial Dao Fruit...]

But the Primordial Clock pointed out the difficulties.

[I’ll take a look at the Yi Yuan Dao Scripture later. If it involves cultivating Primordial True Qi, I can follow the non-Earth Element and perfected path left by the Yi Yuan Grandmaster. I believe with my talent, I can definitely achieve this, perhaps even transcend to the Divinity Transformation.]

Chen Mobai confidently stated.

In fact, the best method would be to refine the Primordial Dao Fruit, but this could only happen when the Earth Virtue perishes.

If Earth Virtue hides in Mount Wudi, it would be difficult for Chen Mobai to make a move.

After all, no matter how indifferent the Primordial Clock was, if he really dared to take action against the refiner of the Primordial Dao Fruit on Mount Wudi, it would not stand idly by.

So all he could do was display his extraordinary talent.

[Actually, that’s not the biggest issue. After all, apart from my master, there have been other Deity Transformation True Monarchs at the Yi Yuan Dao Palace throughout history. Do you know why they didn’t help me improve my grade?]
