Cultivating Gods Deep Dive: The Hidden Forces Behind the Purple Gold Ship, Seen Through the Mitian Ring (Heavenly Dao Xiao Hua)

Summary of the Cultivating Gods Immortal Realm Arc, Chapters 13, "Purple Gold Ship," and 14, "Mitian Ring": the Purple Gold Ship and the Mitian Ring appeared very abruptly. I believe there was something suspicious about the Purple Gold Ship appearing in Yunmeng Marsh. The force behind it was far from simple, and it involved Tan Hua's deeper layout for the Immortal Realm. This article will analyze, point by point, the hidden mysteries in their dialogue.

I. Xuan'er's personality

From such words as "coquettish annoyance," "soft laughter," and "impatience" in Xuan'er's dialogue, it could be seen that the little girl was innocent and carefree, unworldly; moreover, her family background was anything but ordinary. A High-grade Immortal Artifact had been used for hide-and-seek when she was little. Therefore, it was only natural for her to tell Xiao Hua about it.

II. The force behind the Purple Gold Ship was mysterious, powerful, and anything but simple. The reasons were as follows:

1. Before the Sky-Rending Eagle appeared, the Purple Gold Ship had been traveling through the void. Furthermore, those accompanying Xuan'er repeatedly warned her not to reveal their secret. That voice imprinted in Xiao Hua's mind had nearly killed someone to silence them for the sake of secrecy. One could well imagine how mysterious its origins were.

2. The Mitian Ring's grade. From Xiao Hua's artifact-refining incantation, it could be learned that the Mitian Ring was at least a High-grade Immortal Artifact, yet it had been Xuan'er's toy for hide-and-seek when she was little. At least three points could be seen from this: first, the family behind the Purple Gold Ship was extremely illustrious; second, Xuan'er had been an immortal since childhood; third, there was a deeper meaning behind Fourth Uncle giving Xuan'er the Mitian Ring, a High-grade Immortal Artifact that concealed one's identity—the Mitian Ring was meant to let Xuan'er hide her identity.

3. Her elder sister's words, "Ah, yes, the Immortal Realm isn't as you imagine it to be..." showed that Xuan'er had not previously been in the Immortal Realm. Then our conclusion emerged: besides the Immortal Realm Xiao Hua had ascended to, there was another Immortal Realm.

III. Just what kind of figures were the force behind the Purple Gold Ship?

I believe that the force behind the Purple Gold Ship consisted of Ancient True Immortals, and that their mortal enemies were the force behind Mount Moban. They were not in the same Immortal Realm as Xiao Hua. The reasons were as follows:

1. From Xuan'er having used the Mitian Ring since childhood, it could be inferred that she had been an immortal since childhood, because activating an Immortal Artifact required Immortal Spiritual Power. From Xuan'er's sister's dialogue, it could be learned that Xuan'er had only arrived in the Immortal Realm not long ago. An immortal who was not in the Immortal Realm, and who had used a High-grade Immortal Artifact like the Mitian Ring to conceal her identity from a very young age, indicated that this group of immortals had another Immortal Realm.

2. From the Purple Gold Ship traveling through the void and repeatedly reminding everyone not to leak the news, it could be inferred that this journey of the Purple Gold Ship was not to accomplish some major task. They had merely passed through Yunmeng Marsh while picking up Xuan'er. Yet this journey was so secretive, and they would not let Xiao Hua reveal that the Purple Gold Ship had appeared in Yunmeng Marsh. This showed that the Purple Gold Ship was a marker. As long as the immortals of the Immortal Realm Xiao Hua had ascended to heard of this marker, they would be able to trace a group of immortals who were not in the Immortal Realm. This showed that the force behind the Purple Gold Ship had an extremely formidable enemy in the Immortal Realm.

3. The "Dao" character produced when Xiao Hua condensed his immortal mark in the Reception Hall caused changes in Mount Moban's Universe-Shaking Bright Stone. From the dialogue between the young boy and his senior brothers, it could be inferred that the force behind Mount Moban was far from simple. Mount Moban served as a monitoring divine artifact. Its purpose in monitoring immortal marks was because the immortal marks were how the master of the three Mount Moban senior brothers received the Power of Faith. They must have been acting for a prophecy, for the foundation of the Immortal Realm.

4. Then, linking this to the damaged fragment of the Immortal Slaying Platform in Xiaoyu Continent, and the Primordial Continent that should have been the Mount Yao Immortal Mansion of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the Immortal Realm was damaged. A great war must certainly have taken place.

From this, it could be inferred that the Ancient True Immortals behind the Purple Gold Ship, who had another Immortal Realm, had the force behind Mount Moban as their enemies. Both sides had fought a great war over the foundation of the Immortal Realm, over gathering the Power of Faith needed to become gods!

IV. The future direction of the Cultivating Gods Immortal Realm

Xiao Hua had failed to condense his immortal mark in the Reception Hall, but the "Dao" character it produced had already caused an abnormal change in Mount Moban's Universe-Shaking Bright Stone. When Xiao Hua formally condensed his immortal mark, the Universe-Shaking Bright Stone would definitely undergo a tremendous change. Yet just like the Xuanhuang Ranking in the Cultivation World, it would be unable to inscribe Xiao Hua's name. Xiao Hua could only escape this calamity for the moment, but from then on, Xiao Hua would enter the attention of the force behind Mount Moban. That force would certainly seek Xiao Hua and seize him in its grasp. Only then would Xiao Hua have the driving force to cultivate in the Immortal Realm, and Tan Hua's entire layout for the Immortal Realm would slowly draw back its great curtain for the readers to see.

In short, Tan Hua's novels greatly tested one's eyesight and intelligence, and tested carefulness and patience even more. With the Purple Gold Ship and the Mitian Ring alone, a little attentiveness was enough to reveal the shifting clouds and treacherous waves of the Immortal Realm, and that major upheavals would occur there in the future. How would Xiao Hua, in the Immortal Realm, change from "Xiao Hua" in the eyes of the immortals into "True Person Xiao," and become their faith? Xiao Hua still had a long road ahead in the Immortal Realm!
