I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2302: Chapter 1048: The Third Saint of the Immortal Gate Emerges

Chen Mobai thought he had succumbed to inner demons and immediately activated the Morning Bell to calm himself.

Under the influence of this life artifact, his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion began to stabilize.

During this process, the Heavenly Blessing of the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun unexpectedly started operating on its own, giving him a slight warning sign.

This warning suggested that an opponent was about to strike at him.

Based on Chen Mobai’s years of experience, it certainly wasn’t a familiar opponent, otherwise, the Heavenly Heart would’ve trembled violently much earlier.

Who could it be?

Curiosity arose in Chen Mobai.

Currently, in the Immortal Gate, even without using Purple Lightning and Yuan Yang, he was undeniably unmatched beneath the Divinity Transformation level.

At most, only Nascent Soul peak cultivators like Master Chengxuan could trade a few blows with him.

This opponent now, capable of triggering such a warning, represented one of the elites among Nascent Souls.

Such individuals were few.

Amongst those at odds with him, as the future third saint of the Immortal Gate, were the people of the Ascension Sect.

Was it the Ascension Sect Hierarch, the Dragon and Tiger Ancestor, or the Lord Shen Yu Xuan?

Chen Mobai also thought of Lin Daoming, but the latter had achieved Divinity Transformation, and if he made a move, the Heavenly Blessing’s warning wouldn’t be so slight.

While he speculated, a black dot suddenly appeared in his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, making him tense up.

A Five-colored Phoenix, the embodiment of Chen Mobai’s divine sense, immediately soared up, releasing Pure Divine Qi to envelop the black dot, intending to purify and eliminate it.

Yet, the moment the Pure Divine Qi surged over, it was devoured by the black dot, which then grew larger, transforming from a sesame seed size to that of a fist, gradually forming a hole resembling a black hole in the sky of the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, emitting an infinite suction force.

The Five-colored Phoenix, as it approached the black hole, began to emit tendrils of colorful mist that were absorbed by the black hole.

"Devour God Technique!"

In Chen Mobai’s mind, memories of centuries swirled, and he quickly recalled the origin of that black dot.

Back when he contemplated one of the three divine sense techniques paired with the Pure Yang Scroll, out of curiosity, he also briefly explored remnants of the Devour God Technique transcribed by Yu Tianguang. At that time, he envisioned a black dot in his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion.

Left unchecked, the black dot would incessantly absorb everything manifested by the divine sense, rapidly expanding into a black hole.

The scene was identical to what appeared now.

But to him, the Devour God Technique was merely a means to enhance the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun, and he had never delved into its practice, nor did he plant any God Seed in another cultivator.

Therefore, this situation shouldn’t have arisen.

Yet at that moment, the black hole in Chen Mobai’s Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion also seemed to open a passage to some unknown place, drawing in his divine sense.

Initially, it was just a trickle, but as the black dot swelled into a black hole, the sky above the Sea of Knowledge began to distort. Below, the Jade Phoenix Tree manifested by Chen Mobai’s surplus divine sense started disintegrating piece by piece, dispersing into the purest divine sense power, transforming into strands of seven-colored rainbow light, absorbed by the black hole.

With a clang!

Chen Mobai immediately activated the Morning Bell, stabilizing his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion and suppressing all his divine sense.

Instantly, the seven-colored rainbow light linked to the black hole was severed by the bell’s chime.

"Didn’t expect your life artifact to be this, allowing you to live a while longer."

A voice suddenly emanated from the black hole, and Chen Mobai’s brow furrowed deeply.

"When did you plant a God Seed in my Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion?"

Also having practiced the Devour God Technique, Chen Mobai realized what was happening after their brief encounter.

The black hole before him was a passage through the void, connecting his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion with that of the person who planted the God Seed. According to the Dao of Humanity in the Devour God Technique, all divine sense in his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion would be completely devoured by the other side, ultimately serving as nourishment for their advancement.

"When you were just an ordinary Foundation Establishment practitioner."

The voice, initially vague and ethereal, gradually solidified, and Chen Mobai immediately recognized who it was.

"Yang Jing? You’re the Ascension Sect Hierarch!"

Back in Red Sandstone City, although Chen Mobai didn’t interact much with Yang Jing, her distinctive voice left a deep impression on him.

Upon realizing his opponent’s identity, Chen Mobai’s mind raced through every memory related to her, quickly pinpointing the moment most likely when the God Seed was planted.

At that time, as a Foundation Establishment practitioner, he was invited by Qing Nu to help suppress Yang Jing’s out-of-control Twofold Divine Technique. Little did he know, Kong Feichen gave a faulty Sealing Skill, allowing the Shadow Snake from Yang Jing’s alternate consciousness to break free, even burrowing into his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion.

Back then, Yang Jing was merely at the Qi Cultivation stage, and after Chen Mobai dispelled and purified the Shadow Snake from his Sea of Knowledge, he thought the issue was resolved.

But unexpectedly, it was resolved on the surface while secretly a God Seed had been planted.

"To become a part of me would be the greatest honor of your life..."

The voice of the Ascension Sect Hierarch echoed from the other side of the black hole, while the black hole formed by the God Seed grew larger.

Even with Chen Mobai’s Morning Bell suppressing his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, the Jade Phoenix Trees, despite being solidified, gradually became illusions, finally disintegrating into strands of seven-colored rainbow light, shooting into the black hole above.
