Yao Guang Immortal City.
Du ngyun received bad news.
Her great enemy Wen Buyue, after Diao Xianlan’s death, took control of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect and obtained a complete Deity Transformation Inheritance.
But if it were only that, she wouldn’t need to worry. After all, she was now in the Immortal City of the Five Elents Sect; let alone Wen Buyue, even if Ming Zun were reborn, he wouldn’t dare make a move here and incur the wrath of that Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor.
However, so ti ago, through the Jade Mirror Demon Sect’s transmission-elder whom she had possessed via the Hua Shen Demon Sect incarnation, she learned a hidden piece of information.
Naly, Wen Buyue had been acknowledged as master by an Outer Heaven Demon Treasure; not only had his cultivation level advanced by leaps and bounds, he might even be about to assault Divinity Transformation.
And Wen Buyue’s foundation was the Jade Mirror Demon Sect’s cultivation technique; if he wanted to undergo Divinity Transformation, he still needed to devour half of the inheritance on Du ngyun’s body.
Under the temptation of Divinity Transformation, and now that he had obtained a Magic Treasure, Du ngyun felt Wen Buyue might very well take the risk of infiltrating the territory of the Five Elents Sect to co after her.
When she had first gotten this news, the first thought that flashed through Du ngyun’s mind was to go tattle to Chen Mobai.
After all, in the entire Five Elents Sect, the only one who could deal with Wen Buyue wielding a Magic Treasure was this Deity Transformation True Monarch.
As for those so‑called Nine Nascent Soul experts of the Five Elents Sect, their reputations were all blown out of proportion; their true strength was not even as good as hers at her peak.
The problem, however, was that Du ngyun did not have a ssage Talisman to contact Chen Mobai.
She was, after all, a Magic Daoist Monk. Back then, after Chen Mobai planted the Primordial Demon Talisman in her, he spared her life in order to explore the Primordial Heavenly Demon Art’s thods, but he also imdiately expelled her from Northern Abyss City. There was no way he would give her a ssage Talisman, a piece of evidence that could expose his collusion with the Demon Path.
Over these hundred‑plus years, Du ngyun had also considered leaving Yao Guang Immortal City and escaping the Five Elents Sect’s sphere of influence.
But after thinking it over repeatedly, she realized that the safest place was actually here.
After all, out there Wen Buyue was scouring the world for her, intent on killing her to perfect his foundation.
Moreover, because the Five Elents Sect had flourished in recent years, resources from all across the East Continent were pouring ceaselessly into Northern Abyss City. Although she couldn’t go there herself, she could send mbers of the Sun family to buy things.
And as for Danxia Pavilion’s elixirs, so rare ones could only be bought at the main store in Northern Abyss City. Because the Sun family was a vassal family of the Five Elents Sect, they also had a certain purchase quota.
By relying on these, Du ngyun’s cultivation level had already recovered to the Nascent Soul Realm.
In fact, over this past century, she had grown accustod to these comfortable days where as long as she had Spirit Stones, she could buy whatever elixirs and resources she wanted.
One had to know that in the past, even as the Saintess of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, if she wanted a single furnace of Rank‑4 elixir, she still had to painstakingly collect the dicinal ingredients herself and even request others to refine it, with no guarantee of success.
At tis, Du ngyun even thought about completely abolishing her Demonic cultivation and switching over to the Righteous Path of the Five Elents, openly going to see the present‑day Northern Abyss Immortal City. But after so thought, she held back that idea, because the Sun family’s cultivation technique could at most be cultivated to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Although the hope was slim, she still wanted to preserve a sliver of hope for Divinity Transformation.
At the very least, both of the Demonic inheritances on her body were capable of assaulting Divinity Transformation.
Du ngyun had also considered having her Daoist couple Hong He contact Chen Mobai. Over these years she had already investigated Hong He’s background clearly and knew he was a traitor of the Five Elents Sect. However, judging from Chen Mobai’s attitude back then, he didn’t seem to hold any grudge against Hong He, so after she brought Hong He back to Yao Guang Immortal City, she simply went along with the act they had put on in front of Chen Mobai and made it real, formally establishing a nominal Daoist couple relationship with Hong He.
But precisely because of this, she and Hong He did not trust each other.
Although in na they were Daoist partners, they had never shared a room; Hong He’s cultivation Cave Dwelling was not even here, but in a Fourth Rank Cave Abode outside Yao Guang Immortal City. He only ca over to the Sun family’s side when there was business, to appear together with Du ngyun.
Of course, Hong He did not just freeload.
Many of the Sun family’s collaborations with the Five Elents Sect were negotiated by him.
Every ti the main caravan of the Five Elents Comrce Association passed by the Ruins, Yue Zutao and the others in charge would make a special stop at Yao Guang Immortal City to et with Hong He.
It was precisely because of this that the elixirs Du ngyun wanted from Danxia Pavilion were, for the most part, obtainable.
Under these circumstances, Du ngyun actually felt that this husband Hong He was quite competent.
But one day, she discovered sothing terrifying.
The traces of the Devouring Sea Demonic Art that Hong He had cultivated were actually starting to slowly disappear, as if they were shifting from demonic to righteous.
Faced with this situation, after observing for several decades, she directly confronted Hong He one day and asked him what was going on.
Hong He did not hide it and said this was the Yuanming Cultivation that Chen Mobai had improved.
The source of the Devouring Sea Demonic Art was the Nine Abyss Demon Sect’s Nine Abysses and Nine Nether Swallowing Sea Technique, and the latter had been derived by the Sea-devouring Devil Monarch from the Black Emperor Abyssal Scripture.
After putting the Five Elents Immortal Scripture on the shelf, Chen Mobai considered that these Deity Transformation Techniques had too high a threshold for cultivation, so he used the Law of the Five Tones to adapt them into simplified Five Elents Cultivation Techniques.
This Yuanming Cultivation was precisely the simplified version of the Black Emperor Abyssal Scripture; at most it could be cultivated to Nascent Soul Complete, and it also incorporated the Immortal Gate’s Spirit Root Enhancent Technique, so that as one’s cultivation realm continued to rise, one’s Water Spirit Root would likewise increase.
If one’s opportunities were sufficient, attaining Immortal Spirit Roots Wenda and completing one’s Innate Essence Qi, then one could directly switch to cultivating the Longevity Sect’s original version of the Five Elents Immortal Scripture and step onto the path of Divinity Transformation.
