I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 3149: Chapter 1495: Nirvana Amidst Annihilation

Chen Mobai stepped out of the Primordial Water Control Banner, and instantly, the annihilating torrent that originally surged towards this side began to split. The vast majority came towards him, but a small portion still fell over the heads of Gui Ling and Qing Nu, blocked by Heaven and Sea.

This means that Chen Mobai’s guess was correct.

He absorbed Gui Ling’s entire cultivation with the Primordial Demon Talisman and indeed could transcend the Annihilation Tribulation. But if he fails to transcend, Gui Ling and Qing Nu, as the source of the tribulation, even without Primordial Realm, cannot escape.

With this realization, Chen Mobai’s face grew even more resolute.

This Annihilation Tribulation must be transcended.

With these thoughts, he hesitated no more, activating the Void Demon Path, instantly distancing himself from the Primordial Water Control Banner and stepping into the depths of chaos.

No matter how far he went, the annihilating red lotus from the dark red tribulation eye overhead remained firmly locked on him.

Soon, Chen Mobai’s figure halted, as the annihilating torrent had surged in from all directions, with annihilation black holes above, below, left, right, front, and back, leaving no room to dodge.

"Let me see what remarkable features you have."

With a whisper, Chen Mobai stood amidst chaos, his gaze flickered resolutely, a radiant golden sacred light bursting from his entire body, he stepped forward to collide with the annihilation black hole that first appeared before him.

Amidst the loud rumbling, the black hole exploded, scattering the annihilation aura.

Chen Mobai stood his ground, his primordial body unharmed, resembling a demon god, he opened his mouth to gulp down chaos. With a wave of his hand, three thousand demon paths circulated, and the vast and terrifying aura ripped apart vortex after vortex of black holes.

This is the terrifying power of the Primordial Demon Path, capable of destroying everything.

Yet as time passed, those black hole vortices shattered by Chen Mobai transformed into rising dark red currents, merging with the blossoming annihilation red lotus overhead.

Then, a fresh red lotus petal as red as blood fell, resembling a drifting willow leaf, but with an unpredictable trajectory, gently landing on the left shoulder of Chen Mobai’s primordial body.

Even with Chen Mobai’s current realm, he could not evade, for this annihilation red lotus has completely locked onto him.

Hiss—!

At the moment the red petal landed on his body, the sacred light around Chen Mobai grew incredibly dim, followed by indescribable pain sweeping through every inch of his primordial body, nearly dissolving his ninth-ranked Taoist body at a frightening pace.

It was at this moment, Chen Mobai realized why Taixu and Heaven and Sea were helpless against the Annihilation Tribulation.

Because within the universe, all substances and powers birthed, regardless of how they transform or elevate, fundamentally return to those most primordial Taoist particles before annihilation. Everything reverts to the original state under annihilation.

Even Pure Yang and Creation, as long as they haven’t transcended the universe, facing annihilation will revert to a primordial state.

Pure Yang Great Power will have all spiritual memory washed away, returning to two most primordial innate Great Daos.

Creation fares slightly better, can resist and dodge.

But Primordial cannot dodge, only resist, because Primordial is the cause, annihilation is the effect.

Only by transcending annihilation can the Primordial Dao Fruit be forged.

Chen Mobai’s shoulder, eroded by the petal, had become primordial Taoist particles and was soon transformed by annihilation, sprouting a blood-red lotus.

Amidst the sacred light, Chen Mobai expressionlessly grasped the Primordial Yang Sword, slashing off half of his body along with the red lotus.

The truth proved his decisiveness was right, the body slashed off by the sword was soon covered by several annihilation red lotuses, ultimately becoming a void annihilating black hole, enveloping him.

Chen Mobai thrust the sword into the black hole that his body had transformed into, then used the sword as a bridge, the End of Fortune Stone Lotus at his glabella blossoming colorful radiance, using the Primordial Demon Path to contain the power of annihilation.

Under the all-knowing and all-powerful, Chen Mobai had long understood, to transcend this tribulation, the power of annihilation must be incorporated into the Primordial Dao Fruit.

Only in this way can the Primordial realm be perfected.

Yet this step is also the most perilous, for failure means truly vanishing, completely annihilated.

Soon, a fresh red lotus petal appeared within the End of Fortune Stone Lotus at Chen Mobai’s glabella, and the annihilation black hole pierced by the Primordial Yang Sword was entirely consumed.

Then, within the End of Fortune Stone Lotus’s very center, a black point emerged.

A horrifying suction appeared, drawing in the annihilating torrents surging from all sides in the chaos, constantly consumed by this black point.

With the power of annihilation, Chen Mobai felt his Primordial Demon Path had reached the limits that his body could presently endure.

His expression steadfast, without any hesitation, he invoked his True Spirit, taking the final step of Primordial directly.

The occurrences on Gui Ling’s body also happened to him.

The singularity at the center of the End of Fortune Stone Lotus spun abruptly in reverse, then vast endless annihilation tribulation power was frantically extracted, forcibly poured into Chen Mobai’s body, pushing the power of Primordial to its peak.

These annihilation powers, enough to instantly obliterate a True Immortal Dao Monarch, were at this moment forcibly constrained, compressed, guided by the rotating primordial singularity, to cleanse and refine through the three thousand demon paths, transforming into the most pristine Taoist particles, then smelted and condensed into the Primordial Dao Fruit.

During this process, Chen Mobai’s skin, flesh, bones, and meridians vanished inch by inch, his entire being dissipated into void.

For Chen Mobai’s current realm, the body is merely a vessel for consciousness, and he could condense the Innate Taoist Body at any moment if he desired, yet his consciousness and True Spirit too began disappearing, erased in annihilation, seeming to become a blank slate.

He kindled Heart Flame with Saintly Virtue, endeavoring to guard his waning consciousness.

Yet the Annihilation Tribulation is terrifying beyond measure, even Saintly Virtue merely sustained him a while longer.

Ultimately, Chen Mobai’s body, along with his True Spirit, was annihilated in chaos, as they expanded to the extreme with that black singularity that devoured the power of annihilation.

On the Primordial Water Control Banner, Heaven and Sea, who constantly monitored the situation, saw this scene with darkened eyes.

"Husband!"

Qing Nu saw the Annihilation Red Lotus above her head, which had originally shrunk, suddenly begin to grow huge again, targeting them as it descended. Her face turned pale, her expression lifeless, devoid of any will to survive.

...

Crack!

A sound like jade shattering or tree bark splitting rang out, awakening Chen Mobai from an endless darkness.

[What happened?]

[Where is this?]

[Wasn’t I undergoing the Annihilation Tribulation?]

Just as Chen Mobai realized the annihilation, his slightly groggy consciousness suddenly awoke.

He opened his eyes, only to find himself unable to move. Though he had a body, it was bound to the earth, like a tree.

No way!

With a shift of his Divine Sense, Chen Mobai realized he was now a tree.

A tree as crystalline and translucent as jade, bearing abundant Dao Fruits.

The environment around him was very familiar as this was the Yuping Small Realm of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, and his consciousness was now within the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree.

[I... died! Then resurrected at the Nirvana Point]

Chen Mobai quickly understood what was happening.

By nature cautious, after refining the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree, he used the Nirvana Great Dao to set this place as his Nirvana Point. As long as his physical body suffered death, his True Spirit could resurrect here.

But this was not an ordinary death.

He died within the Annihilation Tribulation.

Even Pure Yang Great Powers, after annihilation, would have their True Spirit dissipate, becoming the purest essence of the Great Tao. So why could he resurrect here at the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree?

Could it be... due to the Nirvana Great Dao?

Chen Mobai quickly thought of the key point.

Back then, the Purple Cloud Daoist Venerable taught him the Pure Yang Scroll, which contained three Pure Yang paths, the last of which were the Innate Great Daos of Nirvana and Annihilation.

At that time, Chen Mobai was entirely ignorant of Annihilation.

Now, he could be said to be the person in the entire Universe who understood the Annihilation Great Dao most deeply.

Because only he faced annihilation, died, and then resurrected.

Yet even so, Chen Mobai found his current situation baffling.

After all, when he set the Nirvana Point, his Cultivation Level was not yet at Harmonization, and his understanding of the Nirvana Great Dao was only rudimentary.

Could it be that the Annihilation Great Dao can erase everything, but cannot erase the Nirvana Great Dao?

The more Chen Mobai thought, the more he felt this was the truth behind his True Spirit’s resurrection at the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree.

But quickly, he shivered!

Although he had undergone Nirvana, Qing Nu was still undergoing tribulation!

Now that he was dead, the next target of the Annihilation Tribulation would be to utterly annihilate Gui Ling and Qing Nu.

Not good!

Upon realizing this, Chen Mobai immediately activated the Pure Yang Scroll, and the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree rooted in the Yuping Small Realm began to tremble, infinite rays of light converging to manifest a humanoid form on the trunk.

As the pure Spiritual Energy surged within the small realm, Chen Mobai re-condensed his Dan Feng Primordial Spirit and flew out from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree.

Upon resurrection, the first thing Chen Mobai did was to open the Yuping Small Realm.

"Chancellor, you have emerged!"

The activity of the opened small realm naturally could not escape the notice of the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Dance Tool Dao Academy. Deng Daoyun quickly flew over and greeted Chen Mobai respectfully upon seeing him.

"What time is it now?"

Chen Mobai immediately asked, and upon receiving the answer, grew even more anxious.

At that moment, a silver light enveloped him.

In an instant, Chen Mobai disappeared from his original location.

Deng Daoyun was unfazed by this, thinking the chancellor had himself used Great Void Transference to leave.

In reality, it was a Great Ability operating the Void that took Chen Mobai away from the Earth Element Star.

The endless starry sky flashed before his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Mobai arrived at the very center of the Purple Cloud Universe, the Central Dojo.

With a flash of silver light, Chen Mobai was transported into a celestial hall where the Taixu True King stood before him, looking pleased: "Junior Brother, I knew you would be alright."
