C37 - The True Ancestral World

Phoebe flapped her wings in the air and waited a moment before continuing. "The Ancestral World of Origin is a form of Small World Artifact."

"Originally, it was created by my father, the Faery Emperor Tianxing, to create an environment suitable for someone to practice the full methods of rebirth in hopes of creating a second inner world similar to the World of Inherent Eras."

"Currently, other than the abilities of Moon Shatter Mansion, the Ancestral World also has other features."

"Before, due to a complexity error in space-time inter-realm travel, the world bead containing the Ancestral World of Origin was partially shattered. I managed to seal it, but the world space and general facilities were still damaged."

"Due to the partial devouring of the Sovereign Dragon Inheritance, I was able to reintregrate some of the lost features."

"Previously, you were limited to only binding with one beast per great realm. These beasts would join your 'pantheon,' and you would gain a psychic link through the Ancestral World."

"As I didn't know when you'd arrive to a small world strong enough to awaken me, this was a way for you to grow along your path without triggering the immense pain of having your soul broken time and time again and to keep you from turning into an idiot from losing too much soul power."

"Once you strike your cultivation to continue along the path of Rebirth, you'll have kept your current enemies but lost your power. "

"Luckily for you, you'll still gain the feedback from the Ancestral Origin Transformation Art, even without completing the Body Transformation Realm. After you gained the sovereign dragon body, you received an upgrade in your soul power as well."

"Now that we can talk to each other, I'll remove the limit to your pantheon. However, in exchange, I'd ask that you consult with me before adding any new beings."

"Okay." The stone-faced Yin Kai replied.

"Both the body-refining worms and the soul refining worms also received a boon from your year-long excursion. The longer they stay in your body, the more dragon-like they will become. However, they'll take even longer to awaken."

"Currently, you might notice the presence of nine stars above the islands surrounding the mansion, six transparent, one red, one green, and one black. These stars represent the 9 God Body Constitutions."

"These constitutions consist of Fire, Water, Wood, Earth, Metal, Yin, Yang, Form, and Rules."

"The goal of the Ancestral World is to allow you, the inheritor, to follow along the path of nine and seek the very limits of power."

"By using the power in these stars, you can switch between the different body constitutions you possess. Due to ingesting of the Ancestral Pill, your inital body constitutions were upgraded to the Yin God constitution and the Fire God constitution, with the latter being stored here."

"The Form Body and the Rules Body are the hardest to reach."

"For the Form Body, you will have to first collect the Sovereign Pheonix, Sovereign Dragon, Sovereign Taotie, Sovereign Leviathan, and Ancestral Human constitutions. I can then combine them together to create the God Form Body Constitution."

"The rules body is created by an understanding of the 3000 Dao. In order to gain this body, you must merge all 3000 Dao into the body."

"Once you gain all nine constitutions, they can be merged into the tenth body constitution. It is only from here that I recommend you move forward on your path to the Qi Refining Realm."

"Another feature of the Ancestral World of Origin is the Ancestral Transformation Art."

"Previously, you gained a small amount of soul power, physical strength, mental strength, aptitude, and compatibility with the 3000 dao from all of your offspring."

"Now, I am able to'borrow' small portions of their body constitutions until, over time, you have a complete version of the body constitution to add to a subdivision under the nine stars."

"Using the new form of the Ancestral Origin Transformation Art, you can completely clone, or turn into, the bodies of your descendants, and the descendants of your pantheon. You can also borrow their individual body parts, traits, aptitudes, etc. and mix and match as you'd like."

"Viewing from above, my personal suggestion is to temporarily raise your cultivation to the top of this world's. While you travel, your children can practice the various arts of the world, giving you feedback and insights into the myriad dao, allowing you to faster achieve the tenth sacred body, the Celestial Calamity Constitution. "

"Once you achieve the ingredients for the Celestial Calamity Constitution, you can restart your cultivation and quickly progress."

Yin Kai spent his time listening aptly without interrupting. She was fairly straightforward, and it helped him digest the information quickly. "I presume that the green star represents the star of wood. When did it activate?"

"The Wood God Star lit up approximately 9 months after you originally entered the inheritance space. This shows that you have a descendant with the full innate Wood God Body Constitution."

'Lao Bo?' Yin Kai thought to himself.

"Hmmm. I'll return to the corruption body for now."

"As you wish."

Yin Kai felt his body change.

Linking to his life ring, he pulled out little Caihong. "Phoebe. Grow my Caihong to full size in a separate room, and teleport me to the library."

Yin Kai felt the room around him grow blurry.

As his eyes cleared, he was in a room full of books. Glancing at the titles, he quickly understood. The sections were based not by required strength, but by their position in the 3000 Dao.

They were all either beginner books or primary cultivation methods. As they were from a more powerful world, the strength discrepancies quickly made up for this.

Satisfied, Yin Kai teleported back to the previous room and slipped underneath the sleeping Gu Bing. With her breasts tucked tightly against his shoulder, he wrapped his legs around her and slowly began to massage her back.

As her muscles loosened, she began to wake.

Tracing the hair on her back, Yin Kai spoke. "I'll treasure this moment forever."

Feeling her heartbeat quicken, he added, "I'll show you around the gardens when you have time."

Sliding her off his chest, he kissed her forehead and left the room.
