Chapter 1106: Immortal Technique Mends the Sky

After seeing Yuan Xu off, Chen Mobai began cultivating the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven. Because of the progress bar on the Heaven and Earth Crown of All Beings, he felt a great sense of accomplishment watching his daily improvements.

In addition to cultivating the immortal art, he also took out the half-sixth-grade core of the Solar Divine Tree to refine a sixth-grade lamp wick. He had previously refined the Dao Fruit related to lamp-form magical artifacts from the Dan Ding Jade Tree, ensuring a successful upgrade of his Doushuai Eight-Scenery Lamp on the first attempt. After all, even with his status, collecting such precious materials was extremely difficult.

With this mindset, Chen Mobai also utilized all the Dao Fruits on the Dan Ding Jade Tree that were related to the Pure Yang Set. After all, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Given the current situation in the Immortal Sect, it was certain that most resources would be concentrated on them, the True Monarchs of Spirit Transformation, to ensure their advancement.

Moreover, with the successful example of the Yuanyang Sword, he believed this case could be replicated for the other pieces of the Pure Yang Set, at least laying the foundation for them to be upgraded to the sixth-grade. Now that he was a leader in the Immortal Sect and had secured the origins of some resources, he seized the opportunity to upgrade the Pure Yang Set one by one.

The first item to be upgraded to fifth-grade was the Pure Yang Cauldron. This cauldron was left by Patriarch Yuanyang, and it had been stuck at the peak of the fourth-grade for a long time. Chen Mobai used the Can Tong Qi (Mystical Union Scripture) to refine many fifth-grade minerals, sent by Nascent Soul factions during the Spirit Transformation Conference, into it, quickly helping it ascend to the next grade.

Next were his two innate magical artifacts: the Morning Bell and the Vast Heaven Mirror. With the massive resources from the Heavenly River Realm, Chen Mobai spent three years successfully upgrading them to fifth-grade. Compared to the Pure Yang Cauldron, these two artifacts had developed their spiritual sentience for too short a time. Without the Pure Yang Grand Dao to stabilize them, their fifth-grade realm would likely not be steady.

Next, only the Pure Yang Immortal Robe remained. After successfully cultivating his second primordial spirit, Chen Mobai had already begun using the spiritual wood fibers from the fifth-grade Vermilion Fruit Tree for its upgrade. Relying on its mature sentience, which was no less than that of the Pure Yang Cauldron, and despite still lacking fifth-grade silk, it barely managed to advance to the fifth-grade after years of effort.

Seeing that the Pure Yang Immortal Robe's sentience had just broken through and showed a tendency to fall back, he immediately released the Azure Bird from his main primordial spirit again. The immortal light of the Pure Yang Grand Dao showered down, quickly solidifying this piece of the Pure Yang Set at the low fifth-grade level.

With this, Chen Mobai now possessed a complete fifth-grade Pure Yang Set, which was befitting his status as the Immortal Sect leader. However, after listening to the Dao at the Purple Cloud Palace, Chen Mobai's ambitions grew; he felt that the fifth-grade was merely ordinary. Furthermore, of the six Grand Daos in the Pure Yang Scroll, he had now mastered Fire, Pure Yang, and Saintly Virtue.

Theoretically, both the Pure Yang Immortal Robe and the Pure Yang Cauldron could be upgraded to the sixth-grade. Among these, the Pure Yang Cauldron was constantly undergoing the refinement of the Pure Yang Grand Dao, and all its materials had already been upgraded by Chen Mobai to fifth-grade, steadily progressing towards the sixth-grade. Only the Pure Yang Immortal Robe still had a flaw in its materials.

In the Eastern Continent, major sects did not specialize in silkworm breeding, and non-major sects produced silk of at most fourth-grade. Chen Mobai asked Zhang Pankong to help inquire across the Five Continents and Four Seas, and he himself had the Five Elements Sect issue a public bounty.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai rarely called Yan Qiongzhi to inquire about the Frost Silkworms she was raising.

"I was just about to report to you, True Monarch," Yan Qiongzhi said. "Some time ago, a crack appeared in the Frost Silkworm egg, and cold air seeped out. The Cold Flame Frost Silkworm within has awakened and resonated with the Ice Heaven True Qi that I have fully cultivated..."

Listening to Yan Qiongzhi, Chen Mobai felt it must be his Saintly Virtue Grand Dao that had taken effect. Those with great fortune generally receive whatever they seek between heaven and earth. Otherwise, how could this Cold Flame Frost Silkworm, after sleeping for so long in the Ice Heaven Palace, awaken precisely at this moment?

"Mm, you've worked hard," Chen Mobai said. "If my Pure Yang Immortal Robe is to be upgraded, fifth-grade silk is crucial. Keep up the good work..." Chen Mobai's words naturally made Yan Qiongzhi attach great importance to the matter.

After completing the upgrade of the entire Pure Yang Set, Chen Mobai also utilized Lü Wuyin's comprehension to cultivate the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven to its perfected realm. Looking at the fully loaded progress bar displayed on the Heaven and Earth Crown of All Beings, he couldn't help but nod slightly. However, since he hadn't performed it yet, he still needed to try it out.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai took out his phone and called Qi Yuheng. For the past three years, he had been focused on upgrading the Pure Yang Set and refining the sixth-grade lamp wick at the Dancing Artifact Dao Academy. He wondered to what extent Venerable Qingping had advanced in his Spirit Transformation.

"Junior Brother, I was just about to tell you..." On the other end of the phone, Qi Yuheng said that Venerable Qingping had fully refined the Dao of Order a year ago, successfully achieving Spirit Transformation from the Nascent Soul stage. After a year of solidifying his realm, his Primordial Spirit Dharma Idol was completely stable, making him the Immortal Sect's sixth True Monarch of Spirit Transformation.

"Excellent, excellent! I didn't expect such good news right after coming out of seclusion." Chen Mobai was also very pleased upon hearing this. During their call, he used his divine sense to pinpoint the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains and directly performed a Grand Spatial Shift to Zhi Xian Peak.

Seeing Chen Mobai appear before him, Qi Yuheng silently hung up the phone, then transmitted a message with his divine sense to Qingping, who was on Qun Xian Peak.

"Greetings, two True Monarchs!" As soon as Qingping arrived and saw Chen Mobai also present, his eyes lit up, and he bowed respectfully.

"Just call me Senior Brother," Qi Yuheng said, raising a hand. "From now on, you are also a Spirit Transformation cultivator of the Immortal Sect." Qi Yuheng, observing Qingping's deference, raised his hand and invited him to sit.

"My emergence from seclusion is perfectly timed," Chen Mobai said with a smile. "Let's call the others too. Opportunities to perform the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven are rare; the last time was apparently during Patriarch Yuanyang's era..." Qingping's heart pounded with excitement, and his face lit up with joy.

After refining the Dao of Order, achieving Spirit Transformation, and consolidating his realm, Qingping had already begun attempting to condense the One-Origin True Qi. With his Spirit Transformation realm and the foundation of the Five Elements Art, this was naturally effortless. However, he had consistently failed to grasp the knack for sublimating the One-Origin True Qi into a Primordial Chaos Pearl. He believed it was due to the imbalance of his Five Elements spiritual roots.

Qi Yuheng, also looking expectant after hearing Chen Mobai's words, proactively took out his phone and notified Water Immortal and the other Immortal Sect Spirit Transformation cultivators one by one. Chen Mobai thought for a moment and also called Yuan Xu, inviting him over. After all, the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven was a legacy of their Mending Heaven lineage, and Yuan Xu was excellent at research. He wanted to see if records could be made during this performance to pass on to future generations.

Next, Chen Mobai remembered that among the Immortal Sect, Venerable Three Perfections was a grandmaster of the medical Dao, with the most thorough research on the human body. The theory of spiritual roots was also compiled by the Supreme Medical Academy. This performance of the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven would be a very significant case study, so he notified him as well.

"Thank you, True Monarch!" Venerable Three Perfections was also very excited upon hearing this news. If he could comprehend the mysteries of the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven, perhaps in the future there would be better and faster methods to improve and adjust spiritual roots. This would completely perfect the Immortal Sect's medical theory of spiritual roots.

After Chen Mobai hung up the phone, two silver lights flickered, and Cheng Xuan and Yun Hai almost simultaneously teleported to Zhi Xian Peak. A few breaths later, Yuan Xu and Three Perfections also arrived. After respectfully saluting, they sat down at the very edge. Only Water Immortal emerged from the void after they had drunk half a cup of tea.

"My apologies, I'm late," Water Immortal said. Everyone was accustomed to her personality and nodded with a smile.

Once everyone had arrived, Chen Mobai, as the leader, put down his teacup and began to speak. "Qingping," Chen Mobai said, "this time, performing the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven on you, besides improving your spiritual roots, we also hope to use this opportunity to study the mysteries of this immortal art. That's why I've invited Yuan Xu and Three Perfections as well."

Qingping naturally had no objections to this. He even frankly stated that any observational spells or artifacts needing to be set up in his body beforehand could be applied before the immortal art was performed. Upon hearing his words, Three Perfections and Yuan Xu showed no hesitation. Besides spells, they also injected tiny, millet-sized artifacts into various organs throughout Qingping's body, preparing to constantly monitor the changes in his spiritual root values.

"True Monarch, we are ready," Three Perfections and Yuan Xu said, returning to their seats after working on Qingping for a while.

"Mm, you've worked hard. This main hall is, after all, Senior Brother Qi's cultivation place. Qingping's last breakthrough took two years, so let's go outside this time," Chen Mobai said, pointing outside the main hall. Chen Mobai, being very considerate, pointed outside the main hall.

Everyone nodded and instantly teleported after him to the summit of Zhi Xian Peak. Qingping, as the subject of the art, chose a spot, extended his hand to condense rain clouds into a white futon, and sat cross-legged in mid-air.

As Chen Mobai's divine sense stirred, a brilliantly glowing treasure pearl rose from behind his head, transforming into his mature-looking second primordial spirit as it ascended. Qi Yuheng and the others stood behind him, completely restraining their auras to avoid interfering with the performance of the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven.

The three years of diligent cultivation of the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven flashed through the second primordial spirit's mind. Then, its ten fingers constantly shifted and bloomed, finally forming a hand seal from which a wisp of five-colored immortal light erupted. Splendid and beautiful! Like a colossal colored sun, it suddenly expanded the moment it appeared, then, with a colorful tail, like a shooting star, it was gently pushed by the second primordial spirit into Qingping's glabella.

The instant the colorful light entered, on the screens held by Yuan Xu and Three Perfections, which monitored spiritual root values, Qingping's entire silhouette appeared. Within it, the five internal organs, representing the five-element spiritual roots, began to constantly flash with their corresponding spiritual root colors.

Metal 16, Wood 24, Water 85, Fire 32, Earth 28.

Chen Mobai nodded slightly upon seeing Qingping's spiritual root values. Cultivators of the Immortal Sect, having ample time while waiting for obstacle-breaking elixirs, would use this time to improve their spiritual roots. Qingping, in particular, was famously disinclined to cultivate spells or upgrade artifacts, so the time he spent on spiritual root enhancement techniques was second only to his actual cultivation. By now, he had elevated his Water spiritual root value to the level of a Heavenly Spiritual Root. Currently, the total value of his five-element spiritual roots was 185. If evenly distributed, each would be exactly 37 points.

Under Chen Mobai's gaze, the spiritual light from Qingping's five internal organs merged with the colorful glow of the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven. Then, like five pigments being blended, they constantly transformed, but ultimately, as if purified, they turned into the purest white. Immediately after, these white lights were precisely divided into five portions by Qingping's will, each entering a different internal organ representing a spiritual root. As these white spiritual lights integrated into his liver and gallbladder, they transformed into the green color representing the Wood spiritual root; when they ascended to his heart and pericardium, they seemed to ignite, turning a brilliant crimson; and upon settling in his spleen and stomach, they were dyed earthy yellow...

Soon, the values of Qingping's five-element spiritual roots on the screen began to change one by one, finally settling into a value that greatly surprised Venerable Three Perfections.

Metal 37, Wood 37, Water 37, Fire 37, Earth 37!

What was this for? Wasn't the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven meant for refining immortal spiritual roots? Could it be that he wanted to complete the higher realms of the Five Elements Art, sublimating this fundamental cultivation method into a Spirit Transformation chapter? Venerable Three Perfections was unaware of the Primordial Chaos Pearl, so he was perplexed by Qingping's decision to use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to adjust his spiritual roots for five-element balance.

"Many thanks, True Monarch, for making this possible!" At this moment, Qingping, who had balanced his five-element spiritual roots, opened his eyes from the white cloud futon in mid-air. He immediately descended and bowed to the second primordial spirit before him. After performing the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven, the spiritual light of the second primordial spirit dimmed slightly.

"Between us, as fellow disciples, there's no need for such formality," Chen Mobai said to Qingping. Qingping, who had only recently achieved Spirit Transformation, clearly hadn't yet adjusted to the change in his status.

"How do you feel?" Chen Mobai then asked Qingping about his experience of refining his spiritual roots with the Immortal Art of Mending Heaven. After all, he himself would soon refine his own spiritual roots to achieve the Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Root.

"After the immortal art entered my body, my divine sense merged with it," Qingping explained without holding back. "I then controlled the art to extract my five-element spiritual roots from various internal organs, purifying them into a neutral state, and then individually integrated them back according to my needs..." Chen Mobai nodded repeatedly after hearing his detailed account, feeling he had gained a lot.

"May I ask, True Monarch," Venerable Three Perfections couldn't help but ask, cutting in before Yuan Xu, "how did you know that the five-element spiritual roots would become neutral after refinement..."

"I don't know how to describe it," Qingping truthfully replied to Three Perfections' question. "It's just that after I merged with the immortal art, I instinctively knew this point and understood how to adjust the spiritual roots..." Just as the latter was about to ask another question, Yuan Xu immediately interjected with his own.

Seeing that the three of them would clearly need a good deal more time for discussion, Chen Mobai and Qi Yuheng exchanged smiles and were the first to return to the main hall for tea. Cheng Xuan and Yun Hai were also uninterested in such specialized discussions and followed them into the main hall.

"I'll head back now..." Water Immortal said, then instantly teleported away.
