Chapter 869: Chapter 486: Establishing a Domain_2 Chapter 869: Chapter 486: Establishing a Domain_2 “Then I’ll go in first.”
Wen Ren Xuewei lowered her head, paid her respects to Elder Qingping, her cheeks slightly flushed as she turned and stepped into the portal.
As soon as she approached the portal, the silver radiance enveloped her, and then she disappeared from where she was.
“I will assist her in her cultivation; you may move freely around the portal and the area below the mountain, but do not cross the portal. Beyond it is the cultivation ground of the Ancestor; do not disturb him,” Elder Qingping warned Chen Mobai, before taking his place in front of the portal, with his hands clasped before his chest, as a clear stream of Immortal Qi emanated from his nostrils and mouth. Like clouds or mists, it diffused quickly, surrounding half of the mountaintop where the portal was located.
In that instant, the stone portal, which was flickering with silver luminescence, exploded with a formidable might that even made Chen Mobai tremble with awe.
He felt as if what corresponded to thousands upon thousands of Void Fragments was crushed by the portal into the purest Space Power in an instant, which then converged and circulated within.
“Is this the opening of the Golden Core Domain!?”
Chen Mobai, who could perceive the Void, finally understood why this secret technique was ranked at the fourth order among the Immortal Gates after seeing Elder Qingping activate the portal.
Without the supreme treasure of the portal and a Nascent Soul Superior as the source of Spiritual Power, Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Practitioners simply couldn’t manage to open a domain in the Void.
After all, it was akin to opening a whole minor universe.
It was said that this Immortal Technique was originally derived by the Leading Star Ancestor of the Kunpeng Daoist Institute from an ancient text from beyond this world; initially, it could only be mastered by Huashen Ancestors.
However, under the pressure of a certain war, the top talents of Di Yuan Star converged and simplified this Immortal Technique, so with the aid of the portal, even Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Practitioners could cultivate their minor realms.
If Chen Mobai remembered correctly, that ancient text was named “Universe,” reportedly containing the secrets of space, domains, and the cosmos itself, understandable only to those with a Void Spiritual Body.
Heavenly Book Academy held the original, while the Kunpeng Daoist Institute had a copied version.
If he ever got the chance, he would have to go there and take a look.
As Chen Mobai thought to himself, besides the Seven Great Transcendent Divine Arts, the Immortal Gate also possessed seven volumes of Tian Shu, each filled with various profound and mysterious techniques and arts, endowed with exceptional Daoist charm. Talents like Qing Shi and Qing Jing had comprehended the secret “Nascent Soul Formation” technique from one of those volumes.
It was one of the most precious troves of knowledge within the Immortal Gate!
The original copies of these seven volumes of Tian Shu were carefully preserved within Heavenly Book Academy, their main purpose being to gather talents to study and decipher the contents of Tian Shu.
Within the Immortal Gate, Golden Core Cultivators with enough merit points could also apply through the national library software for the opportunity to comprehend the original texts at Heavenly Book Academy.
However, most who went to comprehend were those who had hit a bottleneck above the Golden Core Realm, hoping that Tian Shu might reveal a secret technique suitable for their breakthrough.
Chen Mobai had not even considered this.
He was aware of the difficulty he had with comprehension; mastering the Guidance Book had been challenging enough, let alone Tian Shu, which even Nascent Soul Superiors struggled with.
He decided to rely steadfastly on the resources of the Tianhe Realm and leverage his Realm to overwhelm others.
He did not believe that once he Ascended to become Immortal, he would still be unable to understand Tian Shu.
With this firm resolve, Chen Mobai continued to observe the portal for two more days. However, the Spiritual Qi and Immortal Light from Elder Qingping on the mountaintop became denser, filling the entire peak and midair.
He could only barely make out the outline of the portal now.
He wondered how long this process would take?
Although Elder Qingping had said that he was free to move as long as he did not cross the portal, Chen Mobai, being a cautious man, chose to wait right there.
After all, this was the cultivation ground of the Leading Star Ancestor, and with the many secrets he harbored, it was better not to court any further complications.
After a full seven days and nights, the Jade Pure Immortal Qi enveloping the portal and the sky began to thin, revealing Elder Qingping, looking slightly pale.
About two minutes later, a green, graceful figure emerged before the portal, along with the shimmer of silver light–
Bright eyes and white teeth, brows gentle, eyes soft!
It was Wen Ren Xuewei, who had successfully cultivated the Golden Core Domain.
Seemingly overjoyed, she waved her hand, and the Wood Spiritual Talisman around her snow-white neck vanished into thin air.
Then, with a flicker of silver light, the Wood Spiritual Talisman reappeared in the palm of her hand.
Amusing herself with the sheer storage functionality, she seemed to delight in it.
Chen Mobai just felt she was somewhat childlike, recalling that Foundation Establishment Practitioners in Tianhe Realm typically had several Storage Bags each, lamenting again how scarce good items were on this side of the Immortal Gate.
“I will rest and meditate for three days,” Elder Qingping said, then closed his eyes, sitting before the portal as Sixth-Order Spiritual Energy surged toward him like a dragon, which he inhaled with a single breath.
Chen Mobai was in awe of such efficiency in Refining Spiritual Qi.
“What’s it like inside?”
Chen Mobai asked Wen Ren Xuewei who was still toying with the storage function of the Golden Core Domain.
“It just feels like emptiness, and then countless Space Powers converge into the palm of my hand, and according to my own will, I kneaded out my own domain,” she said.
Although this process was about establishing the core, it was actually the portal taking the lead, while Elder Qingping provided the source of Spiritual Power.
After all, opening up the Void is a bit of a high-end power for them, Foundation Establishment Practitioners and Golden Core Cultivators.
“Think of it as if you had a dream where you became the creator of heaven and earth,” she said with a smile.
Three days quickly passed, and once Elder Qingping had recovered his Spiritual Power, he gestured to Chen Mobai that it was his turn to enter; Wen Ren Xuewei once again shared her insights and experience.
In a flash of silver light, Chen Mobai found himself in a mysterious Void, an endless expanse of nothingness.
Without any rules or boundaries, he seemed to become a phantom symbol, not knowing whether he was floating or standing, or even whether he could feel his physical body’s existence.
Lacking sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing, Chen Mobai was like a vegetative being, devoid of the five senses, unable to determine where he was.
If it hadn’t been for his trust in the Immortal Gate, the profound darkness alone would have been enough to instill fear in any Cultivator.
“Imagine what kind of minor world you need, one that belongs solely to you, a new world where all functions serve only you,” he was told.
At that moment, Elder Qingping’s words echoed in Chen Mobai’s heart.
Play the creator!
Chen Mobai thought of Wen Ren Xuewei’s words and suddenly came to a realization.
So, that was it.
He said, “Let there be light!”
And then, within the vast darkness, the first ray of light appeared, and his vision returned.
With the light as a contrast, the darkness around him seemed even deeper and more serene, but it made him feel more uneasy.
It was like there were unknown entities lurking in the darkness, fraught with countless dangers.
It was the awe that comes with the mysterious due to the unknown.
Therefore, he needed more, brighter light!
A great sun appeared in the palm of his hand.
With light, he also needed air, water, soil, and more.
A vivid image emerged in Chen Mobai’s mind.
It was the Biyu Wutong in Red Sandstone City that shaded the sun and sky!
He wanted a plant like that, perfectly suited to survive in this domain with water and air.
Unfortunately, this newly opened domain was unable to generate living beings.
Chen Mobai’s idea had failed.
Then let’s try something else.
He wanted to form a core!
Again, there was no response.
After several attempts, Chen Mobai felt familiar clusters of Void Power flying out from the darkness, merging into the newly born domain in the palm of his hand.
This was the power he had previously drawn from the Void Stone in the wooden hut; now it was returning to its rightful owner.
As each cluster of Void Power flew out, it would catalyze a hundredfold of the Space Power within the domain to merge into Chen Mobai’s domain.
So, this was the purpose of the second trial.
Chen Mobai had an epiphany, and at this moment, the domain in his palm was expanding inch by inch; in the blink of an eye, it grew from a diameter of twenty centimeters to the scale of half a meter.
He was like holding an orb planetarium, observing.
[At the very beginning, was Di Yuan Star also like this?]
For some reason, this thought suddenly came to Chen Mobai’s mind.
