Chapter 1083: Transformation into God

Main Text Volume

The Pure Yang Scroll cultivation technique encompasses six Great Daos, but Chen Mobai had never been able to comprehend the Pure Yang Great Dao among them. He hadn't paid much attention to this before, as his true goal was the Nirvana and Sacred Virtue Great Daos, which are achieved by combining the Pure Yang Scroll with the Danfeng Chaoyang Diagram. So, when he suddenly comprehended this Great Dao this time, Chen Mobai was quite surprised.

He didn't miss this opportunity, merging his consciousness into the Great Dao to take advantage of his breakthrough and truly understand the Pure Yang Great Dao. Gradually, Chen Mobai began to grasp the true meaning of this Great Dao. It represents the power of "Eternal Affirmation." Anything or anyone imbued with the Pure Yang Great Dao can constantly maintain its peak state, immune to degradation or curses from malevolent spells, artifacts, or similar influences.

For example, elixirs have an expiration date; even high-grade elixirs gradually lose their efficacy over time. But if imbued with the power of the Pure Yang Great Dao, an elixir can forever maintain its most potent state, as if freshly refined. The same applies to magical artifacts, talismans, and even the human body. This reminded Chen Mobai of the Longevity Art. After mastering this Divine Transformation cultivation technique, one can remain eternally youthful and perpetually at their peak until their lifespan is exhausted. The Pure Yang Great Dao is similar; as long as its power persists, he can keep himself eternally young and at his strongest. And this is precisely the highest realm of the Lamp Lighting Art: a body like refined glass, eternally brilliant.

But this is merely the initial application of the Pure Yang Great Dao. Its true power lies in combining with the Pure Yin Great Dao to sublimate into the Innate Yin-Yang Great Dao! Because all things in the world have Yin and Yang aspects, "Eternal Affirmation" also has distinctions between Yin and Yang. The Pure Yang Great Dao's eternal non-degradation can only be applied to objects with Yang attributes. The true "Eternal Affirmation" for all phenomena and all things in the world is achieved through the combination of Yin and Yang.

The moment Chen Mobai comprehended the Pure Yang Great Dao, the Elixir Cauldron Jade Tree behind him suddenly burst forth with brilliant five-colored radiance. A phantom Azure Bird flew out, circling continuously above his head. Seeing this scene, his second primordial spirit showed a flicker of understanding. It reached out to the Azure Bird, which immediately landed on the golden-red immortal flower. The bird then shook its feathers, imparting many profound insights regarding the Pure Yang Scroll to Chen Mobai's main body through the dispersal of the flower.

Chen Mobai, who was currently comprehending the Pure Yang Great Dao, suddenly felt a surge of excitement as waves of inexplicable knowledge emerged from within him. The Pure Yang Scroll, originally only cultivable up to the Divine Transformation realm, now included additional chapters for the Void Refinement realm, and even content related to Dao Integration and the six Great Daos. This was left by the patriarch of the Elixir Cauldron Sect within his own Dao fruit. Disciples who cultivated the Pure Yang Scroll to the Divine Transformation realm could obtain a portion of it, such as the former Patriarch Yuanyang. However, to obtain the chapters related to "Dao Integration," only disciples with the same foundation as Daoist Dandao, who cultivate both the Pure Yang Scroll and the Danfeng Chaoyang Diagram, would qualify. Only then could one be considered a true inheritor of the Elixir Cauldron Sect's legacy, capable of receiving the true meaning of the Great Dao that Daoist Dandao heard in the Purple Heavens Palace!

Chen Mobai's main body, under the empowerment of the Azure Bird that flew from the Elixir Cauldron Jade Tree, gained an increasingly profound understanding of the Pure Yang Great Dao. As he used the "Rhythm of Five Tones" to gradually assimilate this knowledge, he even gained a glimmer of understanding regarding the Yin-Yang Great Dao.

At this moment, his vision suddenly blurred, and he found himself in a grand hall. Looking up, he saw a purple-robed Daoist with ink-black hair, whose face was indistinct. The Daoist was seated upon a green lotus, chanting divine will and expounding on the Great Dao. Chen Mobai was seated in the third row, by the wall. As he looked on in surprise, the purple-robed Daoist suddenly turned and looked his way. Those eyes, as deep as an abyss, made Chen Mobai instinctively lower his head.

Chen Mobai saw himself sitting on a yellow futon, clad in a white Daoist robe, and a faint guess formed in his mind. "Why are you spacing out?" a voice whispered. "The Master is expounding on his Innate Yin-Yang Great Dao today. This is a rare opportunity, don't miss it..."

At that moment, a subtle voice sounded in Chen Mobai's ear. He recognized it as coming from the person seated in front of him and couldn't help but look up slightly, seeing a female cultivator with a straight back, clad in a green Daoist robe. "Mm..." Chen Mobai didn't recognize her, so he could only mumble an affirmative sound, then lowered his head and pricked up his ears, beginning to listen to the lecture. However, the Innate Yin-Yang Great Dao expounded by the Daoist was truly profound. Having joined midway, he was completely bewildered. He could only force himself to remember a few fragments of words, planning to slowly comprehend them later when he had the chance.

Time slowly passed. As the Daoist lectured, everyone was immersed, seemingly deeply contemplating the true meaning of the Innate Yin-Yang Great Dao. Even Chen Mobai, after listening for a good while, and relying on the "Rhythm of Five Tones," gained a slight personal understanding.

Finally, the Daoist stopped. In the grand hall, the seven people seated on the first row of futons in front of the Daoist suddenly manifested various powerful Dharma Idols. Some transformed a brilliant galaxy into a chessboard, playing out the great calamity of all living beings! Others had a Xuanhuang Pagoda above their heads, holding a three-foot Qingfeng sword, deep in thought! Some held a black and white celestial book, with life and death cycles and the end of all things manifesting with each breath. Others directly manifested their true forms: a strange true dragon with nine claws and nine heads, and a great bird surrounded by multicolored light. However, what puzzled Chen Mobai the most was a blue-robed female cultivator sitting on a turtle. He felt that turtle looked somewhat familiar.

"Master, how can one attain eternity and transcend the sea of suffering?" At this moment, the blue-robed female cultivator was the first to open her eyes and ask the purple-robed Daoist. Chen Mobai noticed that everyone in the hall had an expectant look, and he immediately pricked up his ears too.

"The realm of eternity cannot be attained in this world," the purple-robed Daoist replied. "One must ascend to the other shore to do so." As soon as the purple-robed Daoist finished speaking, another black-robed, white-haired youth continued to ask, "Master, then how can one ascend to the other shore?" The purple-robed Daoist replied: "Attain eternity, and you can ascend to the other shore!" Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn't help but gape in shock. He thought to himself, if this Daoist were teaching in the Immortal Sect, he would have probably been reported by parents long ago. But regarding this, the Xuanmen cultivators in the hall seemed to be accustomed to it.

The silver-haired Daoist seated first on the left in the front row then stood up and asked the third question: "Master, how can one cultivate the power to ascend to the other shore?" The purple-robed Daoist: "Obtain the power of creation!" The gray-robed youth in the second position, who had put down his three-foot Qingfeng sword, asked, "How can one obtain the power of creation?" The purple-robed Daoist: "Master the Three Thousand Great Daos!" "Then how can one master the Three Thousand Great Daos?" The nine-headed true dragon, with all nine mouths speaking at once, roared like thunder in the hall, making the less cultivated listeners feel dizzy and disoriented. "Do I still need to teach you this?" the Daoist snapped. "Just practice them one by one! Class dismissed!" The purple-robed Daoist finally lost his patience. After saying this, he turned and vanished from the green lotus.

Chen Mobai now understood. This must be inside the Purple Heavens Palace. Within the Dao fruit left by Daoist Dandao, he clearly considered this the most important knowledge, and thus preserved it until he encountered Chen Mobai to pass it on. But because Daoist Dandao himself was only at the peak of the Void Refinement realm, for this lesson on ninth-tier creation, he could only leave behind an image, allowing later disciples to comprehend it themselves.

After realizing this, Chen Mobai couldn't help but give a bitter smile. He couldn't even be considered a Divine Transformation cultivator yet, so naturally, it was even more impossible for him to comprehend content related to eternity, the other shore, or creation. "Junior brother, what should we eat after class?" Just as Chen Mobai was wondering what he could do within the illusion left by Daoist Dandao, the familiar voice came from the front again. Chen Mobai looked up, just about to see who his front-row classmate was, when suddenly, the surroundings turned into wisps of mist. The grand hall, the green lotus, the futons, and the Purple Heavens cultivators all gradually turned into smoke and dispersed. At the last moment, Chen Mobai saw his front-row classmate stand up and turn around. She was tall with long legs and fair skin. Unfortunately, her facial features had already dissolved into mist, but he imagined she must have been a great beauty. One could tell just by her figure.

Chen Mobai opened his mouth to say something, but found that he had already returned to the front of the Elixir Cauldron Jade Tree. The golden-red immortal flower above his head had by then consumed more than half of its essence, with only a single bud remaining. The Azure Bird perched on it had also become illusory, then turned into a wisp of green smoke and reintegrated into the Elixir Cauldron Jade Tree.

Chen Mobai continued to close his eyes and introspect. He felt his Nascent Soul had undergone earth-shattering changes, and under the effects of the golden-red immortal flower and the Spirit-Through Saint True Elixir, it began to merge with the phoenix phantom formed by the Danfeng Chaoyang Diagram within his Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness. At this moment, Chen Mobai felt his Nascent Soul become light and ethereal, as if it was about to detach from the mortal world and transcend existence. He did not stop it. The true meaning of the Pure Yang Scroll transmitted by the Azure Bird from the Elixir Cauldron Jade Tree had been completely comprehended and assimilated by him at this moment. The transformation that would originally have taken several years to complete was greatly shortened. His Nascent Soul, combined with the phoenix phantom, began to transform into an Azure Bird. The moment the Azure Bird fully formed, it signified that he had refined the true meaning of Daoist Dandao, his Nascent Soul had transformed into a Primordial Spirit, and he had achieved the Divine Transformation Dao.

For Chen Mobai, the goal of his current secluded cultivation had been effortlessly achieved. In the progress bar of the "Crown of All Beings," he found that by refining the golden-red immortal flower and half a Spirit-Through Saint True Elixir, he would be able to break through the bottleneck. After the most concerning matter in his heart was settled, Chen Mobai began to recall the scenes he had just witnessed. In the Purple Heavens Palace, Daoist Zixiao taught the Innate Yin-Yang Great Dao. Afterwards, the disciples asked how to obtain creation and attain eternity. And the final answer was the same as the ninth-tier Primordial realm of the Demonic Path that Chen Mobai already knew: Master the Three Thousand Great Daos!

But in this universe, many Great Daos have already been occupied by powerful cultivators. Just in the Purple Heavens Palace, the seven people in the front row were at least Dao Integration grandmasters, possibly even Pure Yang cultivators. So, in such a situation, how can one master the Three Thousand Great Daos? One can't possibly do as the Demonic Lord did: first destroy the world, then recreate it! How did Daoist Zixiao achieve it?

As Chen Mobai pondered in confusion, the last bud of the golden-red immortal flower above his head was also crushed into smithereens by his second primordial spirit, transforming into streaks of golden-red light that flowed into every part of Chen Mobai's body. And this part was precisely the most essential. It was the section that the five-angled ancient maple originally intended to keep as a seed. If Chen Mobai's physical body hadn't already advanced to the fifth tier, he might not have been able to bear refining this portion. But now, he effortlessly sent his Nascent Soul flying out, which transformed into an Azure Bird already quite developed in form. It then opened its mouth and consumed the scattered golden-red streams of light.

Gradually, the Azure Bird Dharma Idol became more solid, but there was still a barrier preventing it from truly soaring high and letting out its phoenix cry across the nine heavens! Chen Mobai knew this was due to insufficient accumulated power. Usually, in such a situation, it is best to diligently refine spiritual energy, enhance the Nascent Soul's origin, and accumulate the final burst of power needed to break through the bottleneck and transform into a Primordial Spirit. According to the scale of sixth-tier spiritual energy in
