Chapter 2358: Chapter 1065: Rules for Pioneering
Dongling Immortal City is located at the peak of East Spirit Mountain, towering and perilous, and also the highest peak within thousands of miles.
At this moment, a group of top God-Transcending cultivators from the East Continent transformed into streaks of spiritual light, flying up from the Immortal City, gazing towards the distant horizon, where the dazzling golden light resembled the rising sun, making the entire East Spirit Mountain seem as if it were gilded in a layer of golden brilliance.
The Master of Earth Virtue Mountain looked solemn; to other forces, the Yellow Dragon merely represented the finest True Spirit bloodline, but to the Yi Yuan Dao Palace, it held sacred significance.
In a sense, the True Spirit Yellow Dragon was almost synonymous with the Yi Yuan True Monarch.
In the minds of many cultivators in the East Continent, this was the symbol of the Yi Yuan True Monarch.
And now with Chen Mobai, the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, riding the Yellow Dragon, even the older generation who were deeply ingrained with the notion that Mount Wudi was the Yi Yuan Orthodoxy began to waver.
The Master of Earth Virtue Mountain naturally understood this point. Although Yi Yuan Dao Palace no longer held the strength of a Holy Land, in this setting, something had to be said: "Junior Brother Chen obtained the legacy left by the Ancestral Master before Ascendance in the Eastern Wilderness. Although it is a different branch, it shares the same origin; both belong to the Yi Yuan Orthodoxy."
Previously, during reconciliation with Chen Mobai, it was promised not to refute the Five Elements Sect as the Yi Yuan Orthodoxy, so Earth Virtue simply stated that everyone was.
[This Earth Virtue sure knows how to use words to cover up shame.]
Upon hearing this, Hong Yun couldn’t help but feel a sense of disdain.
Having participated in the entire previous peace talk, he naturally knew that the so-called Yi Yuan Orthodoxy was simply a compromise because the strength of Mount Wudi was inferior to the Five Elements Sect.
But others, unaware of the truth, couldn’t help but show a moment of realization upon hearing Earth Virtue’s explanation.
Yuan Zhen, who knew the internal story, smirked coldly, wanting to say something more, but was glared at by Ni Yuanzhong.
After being warned by the Sect Leader through voice transmission, Yuan Zhen could only sullenly retract his words.
Boom!
At this moment, a thunderous dragon roar resounded through the sky, akin to earth-shaking thunder.
As the Yellow Dragon approached, the sky above roared with fierce winds, thunder raced, and the terrifying momentum of the pinnacle True Spirit, along with the awe-inspiring celestial phenomena, came rushing, causing the multitude of cultivators at Dongling Immortal City to widen their eyes and hold their breath.
"Why have you all come out?"
Before the imposing Yellow Dragon, a clear white cloud crossed the thunderstorm, drifting lightly to the fore of everyone. Shenxi Sect Master, somewhat surprised, looked at the top Nascent Soul cultivators of various major sects of the East Continent floating before him.
"Such grandeur naturally piques curiosity."
Ni Yuanzhong was the first to respond with a smile, then looked toward the young man in white riding the Yellow Dragon, cupping his hands: "Long time no see, Sect Master Chen, your cultivation has advanced another step."
"Greetings, Sect Master Ni. I didn’t expect you all to have arrived already; it seems I am late."
Chen Mobai glanced at the numerous Nascent Soul cultivators above the Immortal City. At the forefront was Ni Yuanzhong’s group, closest to Divinity Transformation, the Nascent Soul Complete, followed by Yuan Zhen, Zhang Pankong, and other Taoist Saintesses and Saint Land Taoist Children, further back were some unknown Nascent Souls.
They all looked at Chen Mobai with curiosity, among them many gazed covetously at the Little Yellow Dragon Girl who showed her True Dragon form.
However, Chen Mobai did not see Mu Youyi of the Beast Commanding Sect.
"Not at all, we just arrived in the past couple of days as well."
Xing Ji of the Star Heaven Dao Sect, also an acquaintance of Chen Mobai, responded immediately.
"I happen to be hosting a seminar, and you two Sect Leaders are about to try Divinity Transformation; why not join us for a discussion?"
Ni Yuanzhong extended the invitation, retracting his gaze from the Yellow Dragon.
Shenxi naturally nodded, then asked Chen Mobai.
"Truly an honor."
After saying this, Chen Mobai’s gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on the Master of Earth Virtue Mountain. He smiled slightly, saying: "Senior Brother Earth Virtue, long time no see."
The Master of Earth Virtue Mountain forced a smile in response: "Junior Brother Chen, you have arrived as well."
Although the exchange between them was bland, many cultivators present sensed the subtle tension within.
"This is the daughter of the Yellow Dragon Elder who Ascended with Yi Yuan Ancestral Master..."
Chen Mobai introduced the human-formed Little Yellow Dragon Girl to Earth Virtue, who was very reluctant to acknowledge her but was forced to squeeze out a smile: "I see, Yellow Dragon Ancestral Master’s daughter, then I should address her as Martial Uncle Ancestor."
In the Yi Yuan Dao Palace, a plaque for the Ancestral Master also honored the Yellow Dragon.
"According to your seniority, Senior Brother, you should indeed call her Martial Uncle Ancestor, but since we address each other as fellow disciples, you may just call her Junior Martial Sister."
Upon Chen Mobai’s words, the way everyone looked at him changed.
If this seniority were established, Chen Mobai would instantly become of the same generation as a disciple of the Yi Yuan True Monarch.
Previously, Mount Wudi expelled the Primordial Ancestral Master precisely because his seniority was too high.
If Earth Virtue acknowledged this, wouldn’t it mean admitting that Mount Wudi was wrong in the matter of the Primordial Ancestral Master?
"That would be a bit messy, let’s keep our own interpretations."
Earth Virtue said this to gloss over.
He represented the Yi Yuan Dao Palace here, and even though the Five-Insight Great Elder had already passed, they couldn’t undermine him, or else the hearts would scatter.
"You are right, Senior Brother Earth Virtue."
Chen Mobai did not linger on the topic. Today, by bringing the Yellow Dragon and having several rounds of dialogue with Earth Virtue, he had already established the Five Elements Sect’s position as the Yi Yuan Orthodoxy in front of the major sects of the East Continent.
