Chapter 262: Taking What Is Needed

Chen Mo left the Netherworld and did not rush to return to the Heavenly Court Secret Realm, but instead headed first to the Ancestral Realm of the Cangxuan World.

Even according to what Fengdu Niangniang said, there are countless rare Secret Techniques within the Da Tiandi near Ju Hai City, and some Secret Techniques were even created by ancient Supreme beings.

These Secret Techniques are peerlessly marvelous and simply cannot be preserved within Small Worlds like the Cangxuan World or the Xuantian World.

Only a Da Tiandi can support the preservation of such Secret Techniques without triggering the turbulence of the Mirage Sea Water.

But there is no such thing as a free lunch; although he possessed the Token given by Fengdu Niangniang, Chen Mo did not feel that after arriving in another world, all resources and cultivation arts would be available for him to take at will.

But the Cangxuan World is different; he can truly take and use all the cultivation arts, Secret Skills, and the vast majority of resources there now.

Before he leaves, he still needs to push open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate and let go of the preparations to depart.

Before that, he still needs to cultivate, though he might not need many resources himself.

Upon reaching the True One Realm, a Martial Artist also has a clear grasp and understanding of their own Dao.

Searching for heaven-sent treasures is of little help to Chen Mo, and one could even say it is of no use.

"Senior," Chen Mo walked forward and bowed, skipping the pleasantries, and said immediately, "This junior has already broken through to the True One Realm."

"What?" The calm expression on the Ancestral Spirit's face suddenly froze, and it looked at Chen Mo with a hint of bewilderment in its eyes, as if it had heard news it had never imagined.

But as long as there is a glimmer of a chance for success, then it is necessary to try, because it does not take much effort anyway.

However, that Chen Mo could break through so quickly was indeed beyond its expectations.

These heaven-sent treasures are very precious, but their quantity is relatively large, which is why they can be mass-produced into Jade Slips for storing cultivation arts.

The Ancestral Spirit has guarded this place for many eras, spanning hundreds of thousands of years, and has seen countless geniuses and heroes.

As for using them to evolve Derivative Divine Weapons, that is unnecessary; he is not lacking in magic treasures to use.

The secret manuals and cultivation arts only occupy two rows of bookshelves, totaling about two hundred Jade Slips.

For the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate of the True One Realm, a Martial Artist must bring out corresponding power; otherwise, relying on other forces, one cannot open it unless the entire Heaven and Earth Profound Gate is completely destroyed.

"Wait until I have contacted other experts and agreed to push open the Heaven and Earth Gate together. In this way, the other world will also be connected to two or more worlds. If we then connect with them, the effect will be much better than just connecting to one random world."

However, he felt a force as indestructible as a mountain-toppling sea.

Stepping into the Ancestral Realm, the Ancestral Spirit sensed Chen Mo's arrival from afar and was waiting on the sacred mountain of the Ancestral Realm.

"This junior previously entered the Return Ruins and obtained many opportunities, so I was lucky enough to break through," Chen Mo said with a slight smile.

The Jade Slips here look ordinary, but each one should be a heaven-sent treasure born at the beginning of a Small World's creation.

In this way, the time their era can resist the Mirage Sea will be extended significantly.

Even regarding the Great Ability and Supreme beings of the Ancient Heaven and Earth, it has heard of many, yet it has never known anyone whose aptitude could compare to Chen Mo's.

It is not Fengdu Niangniang; its cultivation will not rise along with Chen Mo's breakthrough, and it had absolutely no knowledge of Chen Mo's breakthrough beforehand.

"Good, follow me," the Ancestral Spirit said, leading Chen Mo into the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate.

And the heaven-sent treasures that could be of help to him are likely unable to be stored within this current Small World.

But there is no rush for this; Chen Mo does not have much demand for Heaven and Earth Divine Liquid, as long as it can satisfy his own cultivation.

This speed is truly unprecedented and leaves no successors; it is even somewhat frightening.

But the Jade Slips stored here are each very extraordinary.

"This junior has come this time to study the cultivation arts of the True One Realm, and also to see if there are any cultivation resources I can use that I might take away," Chen Mo said directly, without excessive courtesy.

Now that it suddenly heard this news, even it could not quite believe it, feeling it was too astonishing.

The Ancestral Spirit's gaze was intense, and it was clearly contemplating many things.

Compared to the thousands or even nearly ten thousand Jade Slips from before, the difference is truly worlds apart.

It is normal for Chen Mo to break through to the True One Realm; she had anticipated this, as Chen Mo's aptitude is indeed quite excellent.

The Ancestral Spirit waved its hand gently, retrieving the cultivation method for the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body for Chen Mo.

Chen Mo immediately explained, although doing so was, to a certain extent, also taking a chance.

The cultivation art he sought this time was just this one.

Each Jade Slip is shrouded in Xuanhuang Qi, a breath that only came into existence at the birth of Heaven and Earth.

Only by sealing them with this method can the cultivation arts stored within these Jade Slips endure in this Small World.

Chen Mo arrived before the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate belonging to the True One Realm and exerted force gently, wanting to push it open.

Therefore, the resources he obtains now can only be used to convert into Heaven and Earth Divine Liquid to provide for his own cultivation.

Chen Mo stepped inside; the supplies stored in this Heaven and Earth Profound Gate were relatively few.

Sure enough, the next moment, the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate opened automatically.

Although the Ancestral Spirit was extremely astonished, it quickly regained its composure.

"This junior does not plan to push open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate for now; I can contact experts from other worlds while in the Return Ruins."

"Not bad, this method is excellent," the Ancestral Spirit nodded in praise; connecting with more worlds will further consolidate the Heaven and Earth.

With a shift of his thoughts, he mobilized a wisp of Heaven and Earth True Gang power.

"You have broken through to the True One Realm; this is a good thing. Did you come this time intending to push open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate, or to first study the True One Realm cultivation arts?"

As for the Green Wood Longevity Art, Chen Mo no longer needed to cultivate it.

Having broken through to the True One Realm, all the power he had previously accumulated merged into one, transforming into Heaven and Earth True Gang.

Whether it is True Qi or the physical body, there is no longer much difference at this realm.

Not only that, but for cultivation after the True One Realm, there are fewer and fewer cultivation arts to refer to.

Once a Martial Artist comprehends the Heaven and Earth True Intent unique to themselves, their cultivation must be based on this intent, gradually breaking free from the shackles of cultivation arts and no longer being restricted by them.

Chen Mo took the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body now only for reference.

Even if he continues to cultivate this art, the method he uses will inevitably change.

Because he has already initially grasped his own Dao, no matter how shallow this Dao may be, it is his private possession, different from everyone else's.

But although the cultivation arts can only be used for reference, many Secret Skills can still exert many marvelous effects at this realm.

Firstly, this is because among these Secret Skills, even the weakest ones were created by Great Abilities of the Ancient Heaven and Earth, and inherently possess the profound mysteries of ten thousand Daos.

Secondly, in the practice of Secret Skills, a Martial Artist can incorporate their own understanding.

At the beginning, one still follows the pattern, needing to refer to other Secret Skills, but as one's cultivation and understanding of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao improve,

a Martial Artist will eventually create a Secret Skill unique to themselves one day, and a single Secret Skill was an extremely rare object even in the Ancient Heaven and Earth period.

Not to mention those Secret Skills created by ancient Supremes, their value is even more indescribable.

Practicing such secret manuals allows one to refer to the path of the ancient Supremes and thereby realize one's own method.

Not only that, even if it is just the simplest application by following the pattern, without incorporating any personal understanding, the boost a single Secret Skill provides to a Martial Artist's combat power is terrifying.

Chen Mo took the Jade Slip containing the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body to refine it, and in an instant, a majestic figure appeared once again.

This figure was ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine li tall, situated within a expanse of chaos.

Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire intertwined, the Five Elements and Yin and Yang were inverted, and Grand Void Divine Thunder bloomed, eroding all things; infinite Spatial Laws transformed into thousands of spatial storms, constantly roaring within this chaos.

Chen Mo looked carefully again; this figure was in the midst of opening the heavens, using their own power to evolve the mysteries of the Dao, carving out a Heaven and Earth from the boundless chaos.

The Xuanhuang Indestructible Body requires one to experience the Xuanhuang and remain indestructible; the so-called Xuanhuang is the scene of the Heaven and Earth at its initial birth.

And to want to experience the Xuanhuang and remain indestructible, the fastest and simplest method is to open up a Heaven and Earth oneself.

Or rather, opening up a Heaven and Earth is, for the practitioner who created this method, a form of cultivation in itself.

Chen Mo looked carefully again; that majestic body drew upon endless laws, and thousands of profound methods evolved from within their body, connecting with the chaos.

The clear Qi rose, the turbid Qi descended, and a Heaven and Earth was propped open by them.

The majestic figure held up the sky with both hands and stood upon the earth with both feet, not letting this newly opened Heaven and Earth return to chaos once again.

The laws continued to evolve, and the Yin and Yang, Five Elements, and the initial laws of Heaven and Earth were born.

Time and space changed, the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter were born, and a Heaven and Earth was constantly being perfected.

A Boundary Wall appeared, blocking the external chaos storms, and wind, rain, thunder, and lightning alternated; within this world, the seeds of life appeared.

Immediately following, many Innate Life and Innate Spiritual Roots appeared, and countless Innate Life gained intelligence and were able to undergo Shape Transformation.

And the image these Innate Life referred to when undergoing Shape Transformation was naturally this majestic figure who was still propping up the heavens.

These Innate Life, upon undergoing Shape Transformation, all bowed down in worship to this figure.

The process of opening the heavens did not last long; Chen Mo watched extremely seriously and carefully, only feeling that in a trance, everything had already ended.

As the heavens were opened, the majestic figure dissipated accordingly.

Inside the Jade Slip, besides the recorded image, there was also a relatively detailed cultivation method.

But there were no Secret Skills preserved; this was normal, as Secret Skills are uniquely created by Supreme Great Abilities, carrying their understanding of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, and simply cannot be preserved here.

Chen Mo continued to participate in the cultivation method left in the Jade Slip, and finally gained some understanding of the realms after the In-Charge Realm.

After the In-Charge Realm, a Martial Artist who creates a Secret Technique unique to themselves can be called a Great Ability.

This Secret Technique connects to one, or even several, Great Daos, and is unique to the Martial Artist themselves.

It has similarities to the external Heaven and Earth Great Dao, but its essence is completely different.

Upon reaching this realm, a Martial Artist can even modify the external Heaven and Earth Great Dao to a certain extent.

The biggest difference between a Great Ability and a cultivator of the In-Charge Realm is that a cultivator of the In-Charge Realm can only master the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, but cannot make the Heaven and Earth Great Dao change for themselves.

After a Great Ability comes the Supreme, which is an incomparably profound realm, and there is no detailed description.

Chen Mo only knew one thing: every Supreme not only reaches the extreme on the Great Dao but can even create a completely different Dao unique to themselves, allowing later practitioners to contemplate it.

It can be said that every Supreme is an incarnation of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao; they are the Great Dao.

When a Supreme falls, the Great Dao mourns.

And after the Zhizun Realm, no one knows what realm lies beyond.

What can be confirmed is that a Supreme once said that after the Zhizun Realm, there must be new cultivation realms.

It is just that no one has reached this realm, so no one has named it.

After viewing this information, Chen Mo kept it firmly in his mind; the method he practices must be different from the methods of predecessors, but having the methods of predecessors as a reference can save him from taking many detours.

At the True One Realm, a Martial Artist can still use the methods of others, but as their strength gradually increases, they must create their own method.

The methods of others are strong, but for the Martial Artist, they cannot achieve perfect compatibility.

One's own method might not be strong when used by others, but it must be the strongest when used by oneself.

Chen Mo put the Jade Slip back on the bookshelf, and the Ancestral Spirit still stood to the side, speaking leisurely.

"You spent a full three months in this seclusion."

Chen Mo nodded, not surprised by this at all.

Opening the heavens is inherently an extremely difficult task; even if what he saw was a phantom image, the time consumed would not be little.

Spending only three months can only mean that the preserved phantom image had already simplified many processes; otherwise, let alone three months, he would not have been able to finish watching it even in three years.

"Since you have broken through to the True One Realm, then some things can be told to you. Previously, you asked me if there were still experts in the Mirage Sea resisting..."

The Ancestral Spirit was halfway through speaking when Chen Mo interrupted, "Senior, you want to talk about that Peerless Killing Array and Ju Hai City, as well as the Da Tiandi next to Ju Hai City, right?"

Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Spirit showed a look of surprise and asked, "How do you know about this? Who told you?"

"It was Senior Fengdu; she also gave me a Token, asking me to find her incarnation in Ju Hai City." Chen Mo did not hide this, and even took out the Token along with it.

"Keep this Token well; with it in hand, it will be more convenient for you to go to Ju Hai City. Since everything is prepared, you should set off quickly.

With your aptitude, you can only gain more by going to that Da Tiandi."

The Ancestral Spirit glanced at the Token and hurriedly urged him.

"There is no rush for this, right? Let us first push open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate and settle the affairs of this world before going over.

It is just that I do not know if it is easy to go to another Da Tiandi, but whether it is easy to return."

Chen Mo took this opportunity to decisively ask about the matter he had been curious about.

He had wanted to ask Fengdu Niangniang earlier, but before he could open his mouth, she had already left.

Now that there is an opportunity, of course, this confusion must be resolved.

"Traveling to another Da Tiandi and returning is actually not very difficult; one only needs to pass through the Return Ruins again.

However, the environment in the other world is superior; if you go there, it is best to settle down and cultivate there," the Ancestral Spirit spoke, resolving Chen Mo's doubts.

"But if you wish to push open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate before you go, that is also fine.

In this way, I can also further lift the restrictions on my own power and be able to do more things.

But do not delay too long; if you can find the other world in the short term, that is naturally a good thing.

If you cannot, there is no need to be anxious about pushing open the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate; our world still has at least ten thousand years, so as long as it is pushed open before then, everything will be in time."

"This junior understands." Chen Mo was clear in his heart, and he felt much more at ease regarding the matter of going to Ju Hai City.

Since it is possible to go and return, there is no need to worry too much about many problems; after all, he is not going and never returning.

Chen Mo then took another look inside the Heaven and Earth Profound Gate here; just as he had expected, the quantity of resources stored here was not small, and they were relatively well-preserved.

But with his current cultivation, refining these resources would not be of much help.

In the end, he only took two seeds; these two seeds were condensed from the Yin-Yang spiritual essence of an Innate Spiritual Root.

Planting them in his own world to cultivate Yin-Yang spiritual flowers for his own refining would also enhance his comprehension of the Yin-Yang Law.

Besides that, he only needed to take some ordinary treasures of heaven and earth, preparing to throw them into the Creation Divine Pool for refining later.

After finishing all this and taking the treasures of heaven and earth obtained from selling Derivative Divine Weapons stored within the Ancestral Realm, Chen Mo then set off to leave.
