I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1057: Chapter 578: Virtue_2 Chapter 1057: Chapter 578: Virtue_2 And it was of the highest quality–the Enlightenment Golden Core!

If Zhuo Ming really could achieve this, there might even be a chance for “Nascent Soul Formation”!

Could it be that his disciple’s cultivation level will surpass his own in the future?

The thought suddenly filled Chen Mobai with a sense of urgency.

He immediately abandoned the idea of returning the same way he came; Yan Yuanhao was still waiting for him at the border.

Upon their return, Chen Mobai instructed him to collect as many varieties and as large a quantity as possible of spirit plants that could survive in the Sand Sea. After all, if one wished to reclaim the desert, trees had to be planted.

And these plants were best taken from the local area, for only those spirit plants which had survived the countless years of conflict with the Sand Sea could be the hope for desert reclamation.

Although Yan Yuanhao did not understand Chen Mobai’s command, he did whatever the Sect Leader said.

In the Rainbow Country, the most remote and barren nation under Divine Wood Sect’s domain, it was extremely difficult for him to make a name for himself. Now that the Sect Leader had given him a task, he was determined to accomplish it by any means necessary.

Although Rainbow Country had the most expansive territory, Chen Mobai’s inspection there was the shortest–he had walked around the border, took some sand, and then set off with the people from the Divine Wood Sect to return.

On the way back, he deliberately chose a route that passed through Frost Country and Snow Country, which were on the way to the Snow-blowing Palace.

After hearing the news, Lan Lingping specifically brought Xue Ting and Bai Cai to meet them and hosted them all the way from the Frost Country.

Three days later, after seeing Chen Mobai and his group off at the border of Snow Country, Lan Lingping finally let her tense heart and mind relax.

She had thought that “that matter” had been discovered.

“From now on, we should pay more attention to the Snow-blowing Palace. Also, if anyone is found crossing the border, they should be apprehended immediately.”

After returning to Giant Tree Ridge, Chen Mobai, who was hiding in the Longevity Wood Dojo with his real body, retrieved his Formless Puppet and, after reviewing the experiences of the past period, summoned Yue Zutao to give him instructions.

“Yes, Sect Leader!”

Yue Zutao was aware of the new governance unifying the Eastern Wilderness, so Chen Mobai did not conceal anything from him. He asked him to collect intelligence on the two countries under Snow-blowing Palace and to also devise a plan on how to seize control of this East Wilderness Major Sect in the most time and effort-efficient way possible.

After that, Chen Mobai dealt with various matters that had accumulated at the Sect during his absence. Although he had returned quite early, to prevent the rest of the power factions in the Eastern Wilderness from learning about the existence of the Formless Puppet, he had always stayed hidden, assisting Luo Yixuan in suppressing the Yellow Springs Spiritual Power.

Only Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue were aware of his return.

He did not hide Luo Yixuan’s situation, openly discussing it with both of them.

They had never faced such a situation before and were at a loss.

Chen Mobai also told Fu Zongjue about the possibility of Hong He practicing demonic cultivation. Upon hearing this, the latter’s face changed instantly, and he almost went straight out to purge the Sect.

However, Zhou Shengqing and Chen Mobai stopped him, considering it was only a possibility.

“We can’t allow our Sect to be in a position where the Jiutian Dangmo Sect could come knocking on our door. It would be better to handle this matter in advance.”

Fu Zongjue was not prejudiced against demonic cultivation, but within the Six Domains of the Eastern Earth, the name of the Jiutian Dangmo Sect was just too notorious. Countless Sects had been associated with devil cultivators or had members practicing demonic cultivation, which led to a visit from this Holy Land of the Eastern Earth.

Even if it was later clarified that practicing demonic cultivation was an individual act, once visited by the Jiutian Dangmo Sect, the Sect would become an attractive target for all Rogue Cultivators.

Because attacking such a Sect was considered exorcising evil and defending the Dao!

In the Eastern Earth, the number of Nascent Soul Major Factions that had perished due to the Jiutian Dangmo Sect was no less than double digits.

While Divine Wood Sect was located in the remote area of the Eastern Wilderness, if Hong He was really caught red-handed practicing demonic cultivation and the hostile forces reported it to the Eastern Earth Holy Land, even if they had to cut off their own arm to survive, they might still end up targeted by the Nascent Soul Major Factions of the East Barbarians.

The Baiwu Ancestor from Sun Bathing Sea may even, in an effort to dissociate from the situation, use the excuse of purging for Ancestor Hunyuan and join forces with the Golden Wind Ancestor of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace to come and annihilate the Divine Wood Sect.

“Then take the opportunity to persuade Hong He to back off,” Zhou Shengqing decided at last, showing his regret for the situation. “However, since he has indeed earned merits for the sect, compensate him generously with more Spirit Stone resources when the time comes.”

Zhou Shengqing eventually made the decision, and he did so with heavy regret.

After all, besides Yin Qingmei with her Heavenly Spiritual Root, the one most likely to achieve Core Formation in the next generation was this very Hong He.

But the hidden dangers of practicing demonic cultivation are more than the Divine Wood Sect can bear.

“Leave this matter to me,” Chen Mobai offered. “In the future, the sect may engage in some unsavory affairs not suitable for us to handle directly. If Hong He’s mind hasn’t been corrupted by the demonic cultivation, we can guide him to become a shadow that protects the sect from within the darkness.”

Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue agreed completely with Chen Mobai’s proposal, as the witchcraft division within the Divine Wood Sect essentially played this role.

If there were additional cultivators hidden in the shadows, it would naturally be better for the Divine Wood Sect.

Another reason was that Luo Yixuan might also practice demonic cultivation in the future; this was perhaps Chen Mobai paving a path for his disciple in advance.

Chen Mobai also told Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue about this matter truthfully.

“Junior Brother, if you are to exchange blows with the magic Daoist monk at Yun Meng Ze, you could look for Junior Brother Nu Jiang and I will send a message to Junior Brother Mo. The three of you working together should be very stable and reliable.”

Zhou Shengqing was aware of Chen Mobai’s intentions to find Tu Daohua and immediately shared his own thoughts.

“That would be best, and it’s quite coincidental; when my puppet body was in Yun Country, I also encountered Senior Brother Nu Jiang…”

Chen Mobai initially planned to invite Mo Douguang and Fu Zongjue; after all, although he had the Purple Electric Sword, he wasn’t sure how strong the demonic ghost cultivator’s abilities were, so it was safest to have a full complement of companions, three against one.

If Nu Jiang, who was the local authority, was willing to help, the situation would be even more assured.

First, however, they had to locate Tu Daohua.

And of course, it would be best not to practice demonic cultivation if it could be avoided.

Chen Mobai planned to look for other ways within the Immortal Gate to address Luo Yixuan’s current issue.

Finding Tu Daohua proved simpler than anticipated.

Chen Mobai released a Formless Puppet once again and took Elder Ming to Yun Meng Ze, where they discovered he was still on the same island as before.

But the trouble was that the island had been carefully managed by Tu Daohua for a long period, and he had even set up a Rank-4 Large Formation, capable of withstanding even a Nascent Soul Cultivator for some time.

If the three of them struck, they would likely alert the enemy and give Tu Daohua the chance to flee before the formation could be breached.

Having learned this, Chen Mobai had no choice but to suppress his urge to act immediately and wait for the right opportunity.

He left dozens of puppet fish, sensitive to the fluctuations of the Spirit Vein, in the waters nearby the island, using techniques from the Immortal Gate meant for detecting undersea volcanoes or shifts in the earth’s veins.

Should there be any sign of the island’s formation being activated, these would detect it.

For this purpose, Chen Mobai specifically acquired a Rank-2 Heavenly Calculation Bead from the Immortal Gate to place in Yun Meng Ze, close to the site, for the Divine Wood Sect Monk stationed there to monitor. At any unusual signals from the puppet fish, they were to notify him immediately.

“Sainted Heir, actually, I could feign possession of your disciple’s body, pretending to have successfully overtaken her, then visit under this guise. When he opens the formation to welcome me, you three can strike from the shadows…”

Elder Ming came up with a plan, but Chen Mobai shook his head and refused.

After all, doing so could potentially put Luo Yixuan in a precarious situation, and he was not willing to risk his disciple’s life for an unsure gamble.

“Have you had contact with the Demon Path?”

“We’ve encountered each other at a few trade meetings organized by Tu Daohua, but we were both very cautious, leaving no trace behind.”

Elder Ming spoke truthfully, and after hearing this, Chen Mobai appeared disappointed. He had hoped there might be an opportunity for Hong He, after leaving the Divine Wood Sect, to mix with the Demon Path and then find a way to make contact with Tu Daohua.
