Chapter 2642 - 1209: Southern State Divinity Transformation (Part 2)
Chapter 2642: Chapter 1209: Southern State Divinity Transformation (Part 2)
Chen Mobai nodded and soon called forth the Artifact Spirit of the Primordial Clock, letting them reunite. However, when the two Artifact Spirits met, they each coldly snorted, seeming not to have a good relationship.
“Senior Brother, you’re here as well.”
At the same time, another Deity Transformation cultivator from the Southern State greeted the Da Kong True Monarch. He was the Great Ancient True Monarch from the Southern State Taixu Piaomiao Palace.
“Why don’t we head down first? Although we can use Magic Artifacts to resist the Heavenly Tribulation, it’s better to conserve some Elemental Energy.”
The Dustless True Monarch saw that the Deity Transformation cultivators present seemed inclined to converse and immediately pointed at his own Xuanji Instrument above and below, suggesting.
“Indeed, this is my first time entering this Third Level Heavenly Tribulation; it’s quite taxing.”
Pharmacist Li smiled and said as his Pill Furnace continuously emitted flames to help him and the Great Ancient True Monarch resist the endless Cold Ice Heavenly Tribulation around them.
Chen Mobai, originally planning to wait here to see if the Jade Shatter True Monarch could truly ascend, decided it was better not to miss this rare opportunity to converse with friendly cultivators of his state, nodding in agreement.
Together, they descended from within the Third Level Heavenly Tribulation.
Upon reaching the Second Level Fire Tribulation, Li the Pharmacist’s Medicine King Furnace began to continuously absorb and expel the surrounding raging flames, while Chen Mobai’s Primordial Clock also refused to be outdone, using Hun Yuan and the Five Elements Great Dao to refine the Fire Element True Power.
The reunion of the two Artifact Spirits after thousands of years inevitably led to a subtle competition.
Eventually, the Primordial Clock prevailed by a slight margin.
The reason for only a slight victory was that the Medicine King Furnace specialized in refining fire elements; had Chen Mobai not upgraded the clock once, based on past experiences, it would have been mostly a draw.
“Fellow Daoist is indeed the foremost Artifact Refiner in the Eastern Continent, having fully inherited the True Technique of Artifact Refining from Yi Yuan Elder.”
Witnessing this scene, Pharmacist Li couldn’t help but be greatly amazed.
He was aware of the history between the two Magic Artifacts, having heard long ago that the Primordial Clock had been upgraded to Sixth Rank Superior Grade under Chen Mobai’s Sacramental Refinement. Even so, upon confirming it firsthand, it was still somewhat unbelievable.
It is known that after a Magic Artifact reaches the sixth rank, upgrading requires not only Heavenly and Earthly Treasures but also the corresponding Power of the Great Dao for Sacramental Refinement. For Chen Mobai to achieve what even the Yi Yuan True Monarch did not do before Ascendance in just a few decades of his Deity Transformation, it’s evident how astonishing his talent and intellect are.
“Not at all, compared to Yi Yuan Master Ancestor, I’m far behind, and must continue to diligently study, hoping to one day refine a Sixth Rank Magic Artifact.”
Chen Mobai was exceedingly humble. The Primordial Yang Sword and Primordial Clock he held had already laid a solid foundation; he merely added the finishing touch to achieve their upgrade.
He still hopes to refine a completely self-made Sixth Rank Magic Artifact.
“The cultivators from Eastern Continent are indeed elegant and courteous, unlike that old rascal Immortal in Flames who doesn’t understand what manners are…”
The Great Ancient True Monarch couldn’t help but speak up, and upon hearing it, Chen Mobai showed a face of curiosity.
One of the Three Immortals, Immortal in Flames, known as the top Artifact Refiner in Tianhe Realm and famous across Five Continents and Four Seas, is notorious for his explosive temper.
Due to this, many Deity Transformation True Monarchs, unless truly desperate, wouldn’t seek out Immortal in Flames for Artifact Refining.
However, reaching the point of Deity Transformation, where further Cultivation Level improvement is challenging, refining and upgrading one’s Magic Artifacts becomes the fastest way to enhance one’s combat power. Although Immortal in Flames has a terrible temper, his Artifact Refining skills are acknowledged as the best in Tianhe Realm.
Thus, they pinch their noses and reluctantly travel to the Southern State, seeking Immortal in Flames.
Among them, the Great Ancient True Monarch, a Deity Transformation cultivator from the Southern State Taixu Piaomiao Palace, originally thought he had connections, and Immortal in Flames had skills, that the two could work together to earn a plentiful resource, yet after just one collaboration, they fell out immediately.
Meanwhile, Pharmacist Li showed slightly awkward expressions, pretending not to hear the Great Ancient True Monarch’s complaints.
Although Immortal in Flames has a poor temperament, his relationship with Pharmacist Li was decent.
“I wonder if the Jade Shatter True Monarch can successfully ascend this time?”
The Dustless True Monarch, being quite diplomatic, and having engaged in numerous transactions with Dao Morale Sect and Mysterious Fire Sect, quickly shifted the topic upon hearing it.
“If she indeed achieved Void Refining several thousand years ago, with deep accumulation, her success probability is likely high.”
The Da Kong True Monarch understood what the Dustless True Monarch meant and followed his words, unwilling to hear further complaints from his junior fellow.
“So it is this predecessor who is ascending. The late Burning Zither True Monarch of Mysterious Fire Sect reportedly regretted most not resolving grievances with the Jade Shatter True Monarch before sitting cross-legged.”
Upon hearing this, Pharmacist Li was slightly surprised.
“It’s a pity for Burning Zither True Monarch; had it not been for exchanging blows with the Jade Shatter True Monarch, damaging his Great Dao source, he would have ascended as well…” Da Kong True Monarch also spoke with regret.
The land of the Southern State ranks just after Central State in resources among the Five Continents and Four Seas. Burning Zither True Monarch, a leader among heroes, was a prodigy of his age, yet he was ultimately burdened by karma.
The past feud between Ice and Fen Tianjing Di, Chen Mobai had long known, but he never expected such consequences could arise.
I wonder if the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s hurried attempt at Void Refining was due to this matter.
After all, if she could not break through, she would still have to duel Burning Zither True Monarch at the Holy Dao Conference.
“Everything should be resolved peacefully…”
Chen Mobai mused, expressing such a sentiment.
“Yet if the Jade Shatter True Monarch indeed achieved Void Refining several thousand years ago, why has she only now summoned Ascension Radiance?”
Pharmacist Li thought of a question and couldn’t help but ask aloud.
The two Deity Transformation cultivators from Taixu Piaomiao Palace fell silent upon hearing this question.
Chen Mobai, however, heard, with Echoes in the Void, their hearts beating somewhat more urgently at this time.
This led him to a conjecture.
Could it be that these great sect holy grounds truly have some Secret Technique allowing Void Refining to remain in Tianhe Realm?
Other holy grounds might not have the means, but Taixu Piaomiao Palace cultivates the Void Great Dao. If someone completes a Law Domain and hides within it post Void Refining, they can completely shield their Void Refining aura from Ascension Radiance detection.
“Before her Ascendance, Jade Shatter True Monarch exchanged several moves with me. She at least commands the Cold Ice and Pure Yin Dadaos. Likely, she used these Dadaos to freeze and seal her Void Refining Realm…”
Chen Mobai talked about his encounter with the Jade Shatter True Monarch, causing Pharmacist Li and the Great Ancient’s eyes to widen, staring at him in shock.
That’s Void Refining!
Is a Deity Transformation cultivator capable of exchanging blows with Void Refining?
However, they recalled the Jade Shatter True Monarch’s ascension scene, clearly pressed into revealing her Void Refining Realm by Chen Mobai, eventually compelled to ascend.
Considering this, the two looked at Chen Mobai with a hint of reverence.
This young Deity Transformation, regardless of realm, is undoubtedly one of Tianhe Realm’s top combat powers. Without Void Refining, he is considered the pinnacle of this realm.
Even with Void Refining, one could at most resemble Jade Shatter True Monarch, forced into Ascendance.
This young man is already invincible!
Realizing this, both Pharmacist Li and the Great Ancient True Monarch adopted an even more amiable attitude.
They continued chatting for a while until the Da Kong True Monarch asked the Great Ancient True Monarch about the usage of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, learning it had been consumed by his disciple, but like the Azure Fall Palace Master, the Deity Transformation failed.
This news resulted in the Eastern Continent’s three Deity Transformations revealing expressions of lamentation.
“Since Pharmacist, Southern State has somewhat lacked successors, whereas your Eastern Continent not only has this young friend taking up the Eastern Wilderness Blue Emperor’s mantle but also has juniors like Shenxi Ni Yuanzhong rising. It seems you’ll soon surpass us Southern State.”
The Great Ancient True Monarch spoke enviously, prompting Dustless and Da Kong to express humility, though their smiles were evident.
At this moment, Chen Mobai recalled his original purpose for visiting the Ice-sealed Mausoleum.
Wasn’t it Han Xingzi wanting to exchange the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill for Dao Fruit?
Now that the Jade Shatter True Monarch has taken the Dao Fruit and left, it appears the trade failed.
However, Chen Mobai didn’t consider it too much a loss; after all, he had acquired the legacy of the Three Yin Scripture.
