Chapter 2421: Chapter 1084: Entering Purple Cloud Palace Again
Chen Mobai was greatly shocked when he saw the second Azure Bird.
Is there really another one?
The previous Azure Bird had led him into the Purple Cloud Palace of the past, where he saw the Dao Venerable of transcending this universe, as well as the suspected Pure Yang and Harmonious Great Abilities.
And what about this one?
After flying out from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree, the Azure Bird circled a few times above Chen Mobai’s head, letting out crisp cries, as if calling or perhaps serenading him.
Chen Mobai held unprecedented anticipation, but to be cautious, he sent out his Second Primeval Spirit to filter through it first.
The Azure Bird did not resist, spreading its elegant feathers, and landed on the Primordial Yang Treasure Bead.
At the moment of merging between the two, Chen Mobai felt nine scattered powers within his Primordial Spirit beginning to have a backbone and gradually unify.
This was the Nine Virtues of the Holy King.
Although the small Immortal Gate system was implemented in the Eastern Wilderness, attaining Saintly Virtue wasn’t just about having a powerful realm, but required a subtle grace and authority, enabling beings to sincerely recognize it.
In the Tianhe Realm, through diligent work alongside his disciple Jiang Zongheng, Chen Mobai had only managed to raise the progress bar of the Nine Virtues Introspection to 78%.
He originally thought he would have to wait until after Divinity Transformation for it to truly perfect, condensing a Saintly Virtue Dao Seed. Yet unexpectedly, such an opportunity arose during this Deity Transformation.
After the second Azure Bird merged, Chen Mobai’s progress in Nine Virtues Introspection visibly grew at an astonishing rate, soon reaching 100% perfection.
A gentle, clear light lit up within the Second Primeval Spirit, and then the Primordial Yang Sword flew out involuntarily, golden threads appearing on its blade where majestic mountains and civilized world emerged on the front, while primitive tools and agriculture appeared on the back.
This was the Saintly Virtue path cultivated by Chen Mobai.
The front represented the Immortal Gate, while the back was the Tianhe Realm, which today intertwined on the sword, transforming into a Dao unique to Chen Mobai!
It was precisely at this moment that Chen Mobai realized this alternative cultivation method for Saintly Virtue!
It wasn’t that the Azure Bird helped him perfect the Nine Virtues of the Holy King; instead, it guided him to use the Saintly Virtue cultivated at the Immortal Gate to complete the missing 22% in the Tianhe Realm.
The Great Tao is one, eternal and timeless.
The Saintly Virtue of the Immortal Gate is the Dao, as is the Saintly Virtue of the Tianhe Realm.
Yet Chen Mobai had always thought he was solely cultivating Saintly Virtue in the Tianhe Realm, believing the efforts in the Immortal Gate to be redundant, so he’d never pursued Nine Virtues Introspection there, not realizing the two could actually complement each other.
Among the Nine Virtues of the Holy King, the lowest progress he’d achieved in the Tianhe Realm was "Comparison," requiring him to be open to advice and unite collective wisdom.
Yet in the Tianhe Realm, barely anyone dared to point out his shortcomings.
Even though he’d express magnanimity and actively encourage others to give feedback, nobody dared to speak up.
However, it was different at the Immortal Gate, where the open environment meant even a Deity-like figure could face criticism.
As the most talented figure throughout the Immortal Gate’s history, Chen Mobai too faced critiques, with people thinking he was exceptional in cultivation but needed improvement in the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal.
Chen Mobai climbed one step at a time from Qi Cultivation to Deity Transformation, reaching the pinnacle of the Immortal Gate, causing his originally critical peers to begin accepting him.
His comprehensive developments in artifact refining, talisman creation, formation, etc., also convinced critiques that he was receptive to feedback and addressed weaknesses.
Thus, in the Immortal Gate, he had long since perfected the "Comparison" virtue among the Nine Virtues of the Holy King.
However, the integration of Saintly Virtues from both realms also owed to the Primordial Yang Sword!
In the Primordial Yang Set, the sword is the vessel of Saintly Virtue.
This top-tier Immortal Gate Flying Sword was formerly owned by the Yuan Yang Ancestor, the most accomplished in Saintly Virtue in the Immortal Gate’s history. After coming into Chen Mobai’s possession, it gradually received the Saintly Virtue he cultivated in the Tianhe Realm.
Serving as the nexus, it allowed the integration of Saintly Virtues from both realms, leading Chen Mobai to perfect his Nine Virtues Introspection.
And at that moment, a Dao Seed emitting soft clear radiance and hinting at golden light began to condense and emerge in the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion within Chen Mobai.
Saintly Virtue Dao Seed!
Upon the completion of this Dao Seed, Chen Mobai felt his Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram advancing into Great Perfection.
The bottleneck of the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion was shattered instantly, breaking through to the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation.
At this moment, Chen Mobai’s already formidable divine sense began to steadily enhance. By estimating with the Crown of Heaven and Earth, he believed that at this rate, his divine sense would increase two to three times, just enough to reach the early peak of Deity Transformation.
Others might be satisfied with this outcome, but Chen Mobai was different.
He believed he could take this opportunity to directly elevate his divine sense to the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation.
This was because he still had half the potency of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill yet unused.
Unbeknownst to him, the Second Primeval Spirit had reverted to the Primordial Yang Treasure Bead, merging into the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion like a blazing sun, exuding endless brightness. It helped fully unleash the medicinal power of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, integrating it into his Primordial Spirit.
Originally due to the perfection of the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram, his divine sense continued to grow, and under the enhanced efficacy, it progressed even more rapidly.
