Chapter 941: The Explanation of the White Light

Qian Xing spoke first, explaining that the Godhead of the Three Dragon Gods could not be reused like the Fruit of Dao Law.

“Besides that, these Godhead crystals would also restrict cultivators, limiting them to the Nascent Soul stage at most.”

After hearing this, Chen Mobai immediately lost interest.

However, aside from him, the other Nascent Soul cultivators in the Immortal Sect whose attributes matched were all serious.

Regardless, this was a path to Transcendent Divinity!

Within the Immortal Sect, aside from the Fruit of Dao Law, only the Startling God Melody could aid in achieving Transcendent Divinity.

And these two were very difficult for them to obtain.

Regardless, the Godhead crystals of the Three Dragon Gods were at least rare treasures that could aid in achieving Transcendent Divinity. Moreover, if successful, the lifespan gained from the Transcendent Divinity realm would be enough for them to wait for the next Expansion War, or perhaps even find a solution over the long years.

“I propose Hall Master Water Immortal,” Chen Mobai began, advocating for his superior. “Over the past few decades, within the Hall of Righteous Law, she has led us with the wisdom and attitude of acting in accordance with the nature of things and not acting rashly. Although seemingly inactive on the surface, she has actually created a relaxed and orderly working environment, fully stimulating our enthusiasm and creativity, allowing various matters to proceed naturally and smoothly...”

Chen Mobai spoke first, advocating for his superior.

Although he didn't know if Water Immortal could achieve Transcendent Divinity by refining the Godhead crystals, Chen Mobai understood that if she advanced further, it would be entirely beneficial for him.

Firstly, it would repay the favors accumulated over the years. Secondly, she would certainly abdicate after reaching Transcendent Divinity, and at that time, the position of Hall Master of Righteous Law would undoubtedly be his.

Furthermore, after Water Immortal achieved Transcendent Divinity, she would govern the vast sea domain. If any resources needed to be legitimized then, they could also be attributed to her.

Chen Mobai even hoped that the Kunpeng Daoist Academy would object, which would create a rift between Water Immortal and them, preventing the Kunpeng lineage from dominating in the future.

“I think Daoist Plum Blossom is also good...”

It was Yuan Xu who spoke. Although he knew the probability was low, he still had to speak up for his own lineage.

Daoist Peach Blossom immediately winked at Wenren Xuewei next to her. The latter could only brace herself, raise her hand, and recommend Daoist Peach Blossom.

However, to everyone's surprise, the Kunpeng lineage remained silent.

Apparently, they had reached an internal agreement to give up on this Sea Dragon God's Godhead crystal.

This left three candidates, and everyone immediately looked at Qian Xing and Bai Guang.

Among them, Daoist Plum Blossom was Qian Xing's disciple, so everyone thought he might speak up for his disciple.

“What do you think, Junior Sister?”

However, Qian Xing asked Yu Baiguang across from him. He had received more from the distribution of spoils this time, so he was willing to let Bai Guang make the decision on these matters.

“Then let it be Water Immortal!”

Yu Baiguang didn't act coyly and directly chose Water Immortal. After all, in her view, matters of the sea domain were best managed by the beings of the sea domain.

Moreover, Water Immortal was, after all, recommended by Chen Mobai.

Upon hearing her words, Daoist Plum Blossom's expression remained very calm. He was inferior to Water Immortal in both cultivation and seniority.

The only one present who could contend with Water Immortal was Daoist Beiming.

“Thank you for the high regard, two Ancestors...”

Upon hearing the result, Water Immortal also let out a big sigh of relief. She immediately stood up and thanked the Dual Sages of the Immortal Sect. As she sat down, she felt very fortunate that she had built a good relationship with Chen Mobai over the years; otherwise, today's matter would certainly not have gone so smoothly.

“The Immortal Sect's spiritual energy capacity cannot support too many Transcendent Divinity cultivators. Until Qi Yuheng and Water Immortal yield results, these two Godhead crystals will be temporarily sealed away.”

Qian Xing said this because he hadn't yet decided whether he would leave or not, so he temporarily made two Transcendent Divinity positions available.

In the future, if he were to leave, the Earth Dragon God's Godhead crystal could then be arranged for Ying Guanghua or Yuan Xu.

Upon hearing his words, all the Nascent Soul cultivators whose attributes matched the remaining two Godhead crystals showed expressions of regret.

However, within the Immortal Sect, the Transcendent Divinity Ancestors had the final say, so they could only nod in agreement.

After the meeting concluded, Qian Xing and Bai Guang were the first to stand up.

“Farewell, Ancestors!”

Everyone immediately stood up, but Qian Xing and Bai Guang waved at the Nascent Soul cultivators of their respective lineages, indicating that they had something to discuss in private.

The remaining Nascent Souls from the Kunpeng and Jumang lineages exchanged a few pleasantries after seeing them off, then disappeared from the Exalted Heaven Hall.

The Heaven and Earth Fetal Membrane was still outside Dragon God Star. Now, Qi Yuheng had completed the procedures and processes and could begin refining.

The most urgent task for the Kunpeng lineage now was to protect Qi Yuheng as he achieved Transcendent Divinity.

The same applied to Water Immortal; she was eager to go to the Sea Dragon God's divine domain.

Over the years, all divine domains had already been jointly deciphered by the Immortal Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators. The most crucial divine kingdom, the Godhead crystals that formed the foundation of the divine kingdom, were now within reach.

However, halfway through her flight, Water Immortal remembered something else and immediately changed course to the World Gate. She wanted to consult with the Spirit Venerable about refining the Godhead crystals.

Chen Mobai and his two companions followed Yu Baiguang to a side hall within the Exalted Heaven Hall, where there was a tea table and a few stools.

“Sit wherever you like. Before I leave, I'll explain some matters to you.”

Yu Baiguang sat down first, and only then did Chen Mobai and his two companions dare to follow suit, sitting upright and waiting for her instructions.

“When Dragon God Star is annihilated, I will leave through the World Gate with the Spirit Venerable. Senior Brother Qian Xing has not yet decided whether he will go.”

Yu Baiguang had always been resolute and decisive in her actions, and her speech was no different. Her first sentence caused the three Nascent Souls of the Martial Arts Academy to show slight surprise.

It was at this moment that they understood why Qi Yuheng and Water Immortal were being given the opportunity to achieve Transcendent Divinity this time.

They had initially thought it was because the Immortal Sect's spiritual energy capacity would increase after plundering Dragon God Star. They hadn't expected it was because two Transcendent Divinity cultivators were leaving.

“The Central Dao Field is a long journey. The Spirit Venerable's determination to leave this time must be to use the annihilation of Dragon God Star to initiate a Great Void Teleportation, right?”

Just as Chen Mobai and Daoist Cheng Xuan remained silent, unsure how to respond, Daoist Jade Flute suddenly spoke.

As soon as she spoke, Chen Mobai and his companion were instantly astonished.

Were they going to the Central Dao Field of the Purple霄 Star River?

What was the Great Void Teleportation?

“Precisely. This is the most likely opportunity to go to the Central Dao Field. I have also reached the peak of Transcendent Divinity and must strive for the Void Refinement realm.”

Yu Baiguang knew Daoist Jade Flute's identity, so her expression remained normal regarding this.

“Your talent has indeed been wasted on this small Local Star. If the White Crane Dao Field were still around, and you went there, you might have been accepted as a direct disciple by that Dao Lord of the Immortal Sword Sect.”

Daoist Jade Flute spoke with emotion. Chen Mobai and Daoist Cheng Xuan exchanged glances, listening to their conversation.

“Do you want to come with me? Perhaps you could return to the White Crane Dao Field?”

Yu Baiguang asked Daoist Jade Flute, who looked surprised.

“I am merely at the Nascent Soul realm. I'm afraid I cannot withstand the power of the Great Void Teleportation.”

“You can enter the Spirit Venerable's Dharma Realm.”

Yu Baiguang's words made Daoist Jade Flute look hesitant. After a long while, she still sighed and gently shook her head.

“Let's just forget it. The White Crane Dao Field has long been destroyed by the Demonic Lord, and the Pill Cauldron Sect has also perished with it. Even if I went back, I wouldn't have any acquaintances.”

Hearing her say this, Yu Baiguang did not press the matter.

“This is a notebook left by Ancestor Yun Ya. Pure Yang hasn't read it yet, so I'll leave it to you.”

As Yu Baiguang spoke, she took out a booklet from her spatial realm and handed it to Chen Mobai, who respectfully accepted it.

Daoist Cheng Xuan had read it before. Daoist Jade Flute's background was very significant, so she might know more than what was recorded in this notebook.

Chen Mobai was very curious, but considering the current occasion, it wasn't appropriate to read it. So he placed it beside him and first listened to the Ancestor's teachings.

“Next, I'll talk about things that only Transcendent Divinity cultivators of successive generations know. However, since you two are qualified to achieve Transcendent Divinity, you can barely listen...”

Yu Baiguang began explaining the true reason why the Immortal Sect's Five Ancestors came to Local Star. This was also Chen Mobai's first time learning that realms above Transcendent Divinity were classified in such a manner.

And when he heard about the 'Star Sacrifice God' realm, his expression became even more shocked.

To think that cultivating to the very end could grant such immense power!

“The demonic thoughts within Local Star's core have been reduced to just a trace after thousands of years of purification. However, because the World Gate was set to attract other demonic thought planets to approach, if there's ever a break in the Transcendent Divinity lineage within the Immortal Sect in the future, you should decisively act and purify this last trace of demonic thought.”

Because the Immortal Sect was currently at its peak, with both Transcendent Divinity cultivators and war artifacts capable of full activation, even if the Three-Eyed Race's Pluto approached again, they would have the strength to fight. Thus, the demonic thoughts were still preserved, following the will of the Immortal Sect's Five Ancestors.

However, everything eventually declines after reaching its peak. If there came a day when the Immortal Sect lacked even the strength for self-preservation, decisively purifying the demonic thoughts and avoiding the Expansion War would be the correct approach.

“Yes, Ancestor!”

After hearing this, Chen Mobai naturally agreed.

In his view, the Expansion War was too dangerous. Fortunately, the Dragon God Star they encountered this time had suffered from the Mother Queen's calamity, and all life had long been extinguished. After slaying the Mother Queen, they achieved a swift and complete victory.

If there had been native beings on Dragon God Star, after their entry, the will of Heaven and Earth would certainly have resisted, empowering these beings to fight against the Immortal Sect, this group of 'fiends from beyond the realm'.

If there had been no Mother Queen, the Immortal Sect would have likely faced three Dragon Gods at the peak of Transcendent Divinity, or even Dragon King Guards accumulated for millions of years within their divine kingdom through methods of eternal life, and so on.

Compared to this, he felt that once he gained control of the Immortal Sect, he could turn his attention to the Milky Way Realm.

Under his leadership, the Immortal Sect could use the Five Elements Sect to quietly plunder the Milky Way Realm's resources to replenish itself.

It was very difficult for a Transcendent Divinity cultivator to leave Local Star and go to the Central Dao Field of the Purple霄 Star River. Chen Mobai could entirely wait until he reached Void Refinement using the resources of the Milky Way Realm before going.

If that didn't work, he could go to the Spirit Void Immortal Realm; he would go wherever it was safe.

After all, in the Milky Way Realm, legendary figures like the Heavenly Venerate, Jellyfish Mother, Ghost Mother, Grand Void True King, and others were not merely Void Refinement realm existences.

According to Yu Baiguang, even in the Central Dao Field of the Purple霄 Star River, a Dao Integration realm cultivator was a great power, known as a True Immortal.

This meant that in the Spirit Void Immortal Realm, there were at least cultivation techniques and resources that could allow Chen Mobai to cultivate to the Dao Integration stage.

“This is the Mother Queen's inner core. It's of no use to me, so you take it!”

At this moment, Yu Baiguang suddenly took out a fist-sized, crimson inner core and placed it in front of Chen Mobai.

“This...”

Chen Mobai's eyes widened, and he froze on the spot.

Earlier, during the distribution of spoils, although he was curious why Yu Baiguang chose a fire-attribute inner core, he never dared to imagine she would give it to him!

After all, although he belonged to the Martial Arts lineage, he had only met this Ancestor once. No matter how much she favored a junior, directly bestowing a peak fifth-tier inner core was something he wouldn't even dream of.

“This item is too precious; I am unworthy of accepting it.”

Chen Mobai thought for a moment and still felt it was improper for him to take it, so he initially declined.

“After I leave, our lineage will have no Transcendent Divinity cultivator overseeing it, and you are the most likely one to reach that stage. Take this; you can refine it into a Pure Yang Treasure Orb. To you, it's a rare and precious treasure, but to me, it's merely a beautiful ornament. Take it.”

Yu Baiguang said this casually, but she had thought about this explanation for a long time, precisely to give the item to Chen Mobai without others noticing anything unusual.

“The Principal is already a half-step Transcendent Divinity. This item is fire-attribute; why not give it to him...”

“This item is useless to me. At most, it would replenish a bit of vital energy and improve my body tempering. My Great Dao lies in the Can Tong Qi. The Ancestor has already secured Starfall Gold for me, Pure Yang, so don't decline it.” Daoist Cheng Xuan immediately interrupted Chen Mobai.

He understood very well that among the entire Immortal Sect, only Chen Mobai was truly suitable to receive this inner core.

Daoist Jade Flute, who was nearby, felt a bit confused. Like Daoist Yu Yi, she was unaware of the inside story and also thought Yu Baiguang was being overly generous to her junior.

However, she merely took it as Yu Baiguang's wish to leave behind a hope for Transcendent Divinity for the Martial Arts lineage before she departed.

“Since that's the case, then it would be disrespectful of me to decline!”

Chen Mobai certainly wanted it in his heart. After two polite refusals, he had demonstrated his noble character, and then he immediately took the crimson inner core with both hands and placed it into his spatial realm.

Yu Baiguang saw him accept it and secretly let out a small sigh of relief.

“This is a note I wrote. After the matter of Dragon God Star is concluded, go read the complete Immortal Sect Sword Art. Remember to bring the Profound Finger Sword with you then. If there's anything you don't understand after reading it, you can ask me while I'm still here.”

Yu Baiguang took out another note she had prepared earlier. Chen Mobai merely assumed that his reputation as an unparalleled sword dao genius had reached her ears, and he thanked her as he took it.

He possessed the Heaven-Severing Lifespan Sword Intent. By casually extracting a fragment of sword intent from the Profound Finger Sword, he estimated he could thoroughly comprehend the Immortal Sect Sword Art. Thus, he wasn't afraid of his talent being exposed now.

Finally, Daoist Cheng Xuan mentioned the matter of the Tushita Eight Scenery Lamp's wick, and Yu Baiguang also signed off on it immediately.

“I recall that Mount Chicheng still has a fifth-tier Fire Yang Fiend Qi...”

Yu Baiguang recalled that Chen Mobai cultivated the Primordial Yang Sword Fiend Qi, and had already reached the peak of the fourth tier, capable of condensing sword energy into strands. He could try refining a fifth-tier Fire Yang Fiend Qi to comprehend 'A Single Sword Breaking Ten Thousand Laws'.

“This... shouldn't we inform Ancestor Qian Xing first?”

Daoist Cheng Xuan asked with some hesitation after hearing this. Indeed, there was one complete fifth-tier Fire Yang Fiend Qi within Mount Chicheng's fifth-tier spiritual vein, but only one.

Once used, even with the assistance of the Myriad Treasures Cave's formation, it might take a thousand years to regenerate.

“Wait!”

After saying those two words, Yu Baiguang immediately vanished from the spot.

A minute later, she returned with a document signed by Qian Xing, then took a pen and swiftly signed it herself.

“Here!”

Yu Baiguang directly handed the document to Daoist Cheng Xuan. The latter looked closely and saw it stated that Chen Mobai, Daoist Pure Yang, Deputy Hall Master of the Hall of Righteous Law, had rendered outstanding service in this Expansion War and was hereby granted a fifth-tier Fire Yang Fiend Qi. It requested Daoist Cheng Xuan, guardian of Mount Chicheng's spiritual vein, to facilitate this.
