Chapter 1613: Chapter 804: Knowing the Origin of the Line_3

When Chen Mobai said these words, he was also watching Leading Star Ancestor’s expression, but the latter’s face did not change after hearing them, instead he smiled and asked:

“With your talent, the hope of Divinity Transformation should be very high. Should I use the Guidance Book to help you take a look?”

Leading Star Ancestor’s “Unlimited” state was the most adept at breaking through realms within the Immortal Gate, and precisely through relying on this, he achieved Divinity Transformation, even aiding the Heaven-Repairing Lineage to continuously produce Nascent Souls.

This was what all cultivators in the Immortal Gate dreamed of.

But Chen Mobai hesitated.

After all, he carried too many secrets on him.

If he allowed Leading Star Ancestor to deduce, it wasn’t even about other matters—at the very least, the Primordial True Qi would certainly be exposed.

Moreover, Chen Mobai knew himself well; he was fundamentally not someone with true qualifications for Deification. Without the resources of Tianhe Realm piled up, he was nothing more than a mediocre person.

Although he could barely be considered a genius now, if he let Leading Star Ancestor deduce openly, the terrifying values of his Five Elements Spiritual Root alone would be inexplicable.

“Thank you for your kindness, Ancestor, but since I’ve just formed my Nascent Soul, I have yet to encounter any bottlenecks so far in my cultivation. I’d like to try reaching that step relying on myself first.”

Chen Mobai found an excuse and employed a phrase that suited his self-confident and proud persona within the Immortal Gate.

As expected, Chen Chun, standing nearby, immediately showed a change in expression upon hearing it.

This was the first person in the Immortal Gate to refuse Leading Star Ancestor.

“Hahaha, very good! Excellent! Only with such ambition can one achieve Divinity Transformation…”

However, Leading Star Ancestor appeared very pleased, because he knew that, even if this young man before him could not truly succeed in Divinity Transformation, his success rate in refining rules was still very high.

“Do you know where the Stat Fire left behind after Qing Shi and Qing Jing passed away in meditation was used?”

Leading Star Ancestor’s question sparked Chen Mobai’s curiosity: “I don’t know. I would be grateful if the Ancestor would enlighten me.”

“It was used by Taiyuan True Monarch during the process of refining rules. Because it was a unique case, it’s uncertain whether the success of his rule-crafting could indeed be attributed to the Stat Fire. Later, however, based on his own experience, he believed it played a crucial role. If you fail in Divinity Transformation in the future, with Stat Fire at hand, attempting rule refinement might greatly enhance your chances of success.”

Chen Mobai’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Although refining rules would make one’s body and mind involuntarily bound, it was still Divinity Transformation!

Furthermore, he quickly thought that if he could cultivate rules in the Eastern Wilderness in the future, and if his Pure Yang Scroll Divinity Transformation failed, could he attempt rule refinement there?

Then, starting from the Eastern Wilderness, gradually expanding the rules to envelop the entire Tianhe Realm—would that enable him to break the confinement of a single corner and, perhaps someday, transcend boundaries and lead a realm in Ascendance?

“May I ask, Ancestor, what are these rules that can assist in Divinity Transformation?”

Although Chen Mobai had already heard Yunhai Shangren speak of this before, he still feigned ignorance before Leading Star Ancestor.

Once Leading Star Ancestor explained, he asked again: How are “rules” cultivated, expanded, and refined?

“To explain in detail, it might take three days and three nights and still not be finished. The rules originated as the Taoist Seed brought by the Five Ancestors of Xianmen when their arena fragmented. Later, it germinated and grew through the civilization of Di Yuan Star.”

When Leading Star Ancestor said this, Chen Mobai became slightly disappointed, feeling that he had no way to cultivate rules in the Eastern Wilderness.

“The Taoist Laws Sure-book of the Heavenly Book Academy documents everything related to rules. If you’re interested, you can go and study it. With your talent, perhaps you might even see the latter parts on nurturing the maturity of the Fruit of Dao’s Rule, which is key to transcending the limitations of rules.”

Leading Star Ancestor’s words made Chen Mobai’s eyes shine brightly. He thought to himself that now, as a Nascent Soul Cultivator, he had mastered the Guidance Book, so comprehending the Taoist Laws Sure-book shouldn’t be too difficult.

Even if he couldn’t fully grasp it, merely understanding its introduction—surely he could manage that much.

Surely, he wouldn’t fail to comprehend anything, would he?

“Thank you for your guidance, Ancestor. Next year, once I’ve taken care of matters in the Three Great Halls, I’ll head to the Heavenly Book Academy to take a look.”

Leading Star Ancestor nodded and unexpectedly shifted the conversation back to what Chen Mobai had spoken of earlier.

“The path of cultivation does not rely on external resources but depends on one’s own self.”

“The power struggles within the Three Great Halls are merely a game to preserve the vigor between the different lineages of the Immortal Gate. If everyone actually got along peacefully, it would instead stagnate the Immortal Gate like a still pond.”

“Only through competition can there be progress. Even the Nascent Soul Cultivators that arise through competition bear the hope for Divinity Transformation. Now that you’ve stepped forward, remember this going forward: moderate ambition allows for the contest below to thrive—this can be beneficial.”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai felt that Leading Star Ancestor was explaining the previous targeting of their Weapon Dancing Sect by the Heaven-Repairing Lineage, but he sensed it was avoiding the core issue somewhat.

Still, having a Divinity Transformation Ancestor personally provide an explanation was already giving him significant respect.

“Yes, Ancestor!”

Thus, he respectfully nodded in acceptance.

“One more thing you must remember: crossing the hurdle of Divinity Transformation can still depend on resources or even rules to ascend. But if you wish to transcend Divinity Transformation and attempt Cultivating Void, inner clarity is paramount. Only by thoroughly cleansing oneself, free from all impurities and nearing emptiness, can Cultivating Void be attained.”

Suddenly, Leading Star Ancestor spoke a passage that left Chen Mobai puzzled.
