The cultivation requirements for “Red Emperor’s Bestow Scripture” were the same as those for the “Yellow Emperor’s Benevolence Scripture”, needing a corresponding spiritual body.

Chen Mobai perfectly matched the criteria, and even possessed an exceptional Heavenly Fire Spiritual Root. In the golden age of the Longevity Sect, he would have been a true candidate for the Saint Heir.

The key lay in the “Haotian Mirror”.

This Lifespan Artifact, according to the Longevity Sect’s refining methods, at its highest standard, should be framed with wood from the body of a Heavenly Sovereign and use a type of Green Bronze that has been soaked in the Azure Dragon’s Blood to forge the mirror body.

However, only God-Transcending cultivators like the true enlightened masters of the Longevity Sect at its peak deserved such treatment.

When disciples within the sect initially cultivated Red Emperor’s Bestow Scripture, they naturally couldn’t get their hands on these heavenly and earthly treasures right away.

Thus, there were continuously downgraded versions of the Haotian Mirror.

Corresponding to cultivators of various realms.

For example, a Rank-3 Golden Core Cultivator could use Golden Sun Spirit Wood for the frame and Red Spirit Copper for the mirror body.

Although the power to gather Solar Essence and the might of the Great Sun Fire would continually decrease, Chen Mobai was thrilled because he realized that he might be able to transform his Six-Yang Divine Flame Mirror into the Haotian Mirror.

It wasn’t so much a transformation but adding the functions of the Haotian Mirror to his own Lifespan Artifact.

In this way, he could not only enjoy the functions of the Haotian Mirror but also have the opportunity to upgrade the configuration of the Six-Yang Divine Flame Mirror, which was gradually becoming inadequate for him.

However, the knowledge of Artifact Refining involved was extremely complex. At least a Fourth Order Refiner or higher would have the ability to do so.

As it so happened, Chen Mobai had just taken on such a master as a teacher.

The question was how to account for the content in Red Emperor’s Bestow Scripture regarding the Haotian Mirror in a plausible way and explain it to Hong Mengkui?

After pondering for a while, Chen Mobai slapped his forehead.

He remembered that the Good Deed Points in his Immortal Gate account had just surpassed a hundred million, enough to purchase a Void Blind Box.

After returning to Yu Wood City, Chen Mobai made a call to Wen Ren Xuewei to consult her on the matter.

“It mainly depends on your luck. Although those boxes are expensive, there are plenty of wealthy Golden Core Masters with time to spare who like to open them. About once a month, the Immortal Gate Network will list one or two Void Blind Boxes. It’s about whether you’re patient enough to wait for one.”

Chen Mobai found it strange after listening. As a Rank-3 user, couldn’t he select an item released officially by the Immortal Gate every month and purchase it in advance?

“You haven’t used your privilege this month?”

Wen Ren Xuewei expressed surprise upon hearing this.

“I haven’t used it all year!”

The response from Chen Mobai left Wen Ren Xuewei on the video call wide-eyed and incredulous!

“You mean to say you haven’t snatched up any of the many treasures released each month on the Immortal Gate Network?!”

“Treasures? You mean the Rank-4 Spirit Rice that’s released in batches, the five pieces of Rank-3 composite Purple Gold, two elixirs that help break through the minor realms of the Golden Core, and meat from an old, dead Rank-3 Green Cow… these things? I’m only interested in the Rank-4 Five-Colored Spirit Rice. I used my privileges to reserve ten pounds of it when it was listed two years ago. I wanted to buy all of it, but a Nascent Soul Superior snagged ninety pounds, and after that, they stopped listing it, so I haven’t used my privileges since.”

The bewildered words from Chen Mobai left Wen Ren Xuewei taking a deep breath before asking, her voice trembling slightly.

“In your eyes, there are only those at Rank-3 and Rank-4? Many materials at Rank-2 are also very precious. If used well, they can perform no worse than those at Rank-3.”

Due to resource scarcity on the Immortal Gate side, many Golden Core Masters who wanted to buy their desired items would mostly choose Rank-2.

For instance, Wen Ren Xuewei loved drinking tea and styled herself as the top tea drinker of the Immortal Gate. However, the only terelated tools that were Rank-3 were her water-boiling kettle and the cup she always used for drinking tea.

All her other tea utensils – tea caddy, tea needle, tea tongs, tea spatula, tea scoop, tea strainer, etc., were all just Rank-2.

Even those were upgraded to Rank-2 only after she became a Golden Core Cultivator using her monthly privilege to reserve and preemptively purchase them.

Previously, when she was at the Foundation Establishment stage, most were only Rank-1.

And that is why many Golden Core Masters like to linger on the Immortal Gate Network when they have nothing to do, hoping to snatch up Rank-2 items released officially every now and then.

For those particularly coveted items, they would use their privileges to reserve them. For the less coveted items that other Golden Core Masters hadn’t reserved, they would try their luck in the rush to purchase.

Chen Mobai was genuinely unaware of this. After he assumed the position of Sect Leader and became a Golden Core Cultivator, Wang Tingbo, the head of the Artifact Refining Department, heard that he enjoyed drinking wine and tea. He specially selected various precious clays to craft him two sets of Rank-3 cups for wine and tea.

Chen Mobai kept one set in his Longevity Wood Dojo and the other in his Storage Bag.

However, he once forgot to take the latter set with him after drinking tea in Xiao Nanshan, so he simply left them there for his two disciples to enjoy.

He was even considering asking Wang Tingbo to craft two more sets, one to use when receiving guests at Shenmu Hall and another to keep as a spare in his Storage Bag.

“`

Aside from teacups and wine cups, his Longevity Wood Dojo’s wooden hut also featured a complete set of furniture made from Golden Sun Spirit Wood, including tables, chairs, beds, cabinets, and more.

All of which were custom-made for him by Wang Tingbo leading the Artifact Refining Department as a basic privilege of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

But Chen Mobai had only slept on the Rank-3 Golden Sun Spirit Wood bed once; it was somewhat hard and not very comfortable.

Afterward, he basically replaced resting with meditation.

His meditation mat for cultivation wasn’t ordinary either; it was crafted from the finest and most upright Rank-3 bulrushes harvested by the Spirit Plant Department, air-dried using a secret technique, and then soaked in nine different medicinal waters before being sun-dried to completion.

Sitting upright on a mat woven from such bulrushes, a cultivator would find themselves involuntarily relaxed by the faint medicinal fragrance, calming their heart and mind, and finding their form eased, greatly benefiting their cultivation.

Chen Mobai was most satisfied with this mat, handmade and with a natural medicinal scent, after using it once, he had the Spirit Plant Department make five more just like it.

One for each Domain, one as a backup in his storage bag, one for Xiao Nanshan, and one for Shenmu Hall.

He even gifted one to Luo Yixuan because she had been restrained by the Yellow Springs Spiritual Power before, which left her Divine Sense somewhat exhausted, and using this mat could nourish her heart and mind.

This turned out to be his most satisfying piece among the Divine Wood Sect Old Ancestor’s suite.

And it wasn’t expensive to make, costing only ten thousand Spirit Stones each, and Chen Mobai didn’t let the sect bear the loss; he paid for the subsequent five out of his pocket.

It was precisely for this reason that Chen Mobai couldn’t relate to Wen Ren Xuewei, a Lasting Spring Cultivation practitioner and future Nascent Soul Superior, who would nevertheless snatch up these Rank-2 trinkets every day on the Immortal Gate Network.

In Divine Wood Sect where he was provided with various matching items for clothing, food, housing, and travel, anything made of materials below Rank-3 was an insult to the pinnacle of the Eastern Wilderness and to a sect elder!

“I’m not one for enjoying luxuries, feeling they erode my fierce and diligent Sword Dao intent, so apart from Spirit Rice and other basic necessities, I ignore everything else.”

But soon Chen Mobai realized his slip; this was the Immortal Gate, not the Eastern Wilderness, nor his Divine Wood Sect, so he came up with an excuse that fit his persona.

“Brother Chen with such talent, yet still content with simplicity, no wonder he surpasses us all…”

Wen Ren Xuewei actually took Chen Mobai’s words to heart, saying so with a look of admiration.

“Oh, not at all, I’m just a bit plain in my ways,”

Chen Mobai thought of his lavish lifestyle at Divine Wood Sect and gave a forced laugh in response, promptly finding an excuse to hang up the call.

He couldn’t continue the conversation, or he’d risk giving himself away.

Right after, he immediately used his Rank-3 user privileges to check what items would be listed on the Immortal Gate for the next month, accurately locating the Void Blind Box and placing a pre-order.

Before long, an official from the Immortal Gate called, a Foundation Establishment Practitioner with a very respectful tone.

Clearly, they had seen Chen Mobai’s identity verification from the backend.

Once confirmed without issues and after paying Good Deed Points, the Void Blind Box was his.

However, delivery would have to wait a month, as the item wasn’t yet on the market.

To this, Chen Mobai wasted no time.

He began to drink his stored Enlightenment White Tea, using his state of Enlightenment to ponder how he could extract content about the Haotian Mirror from the “Red Emperor’s Bestow Scripture” and transform it into the linguistic habits and artifact refining terminology of the Immortal Gate.

Chen Mobai first contemplated on his own, and when stumped, he would take the Enlightenment Tea to deduce a portion, then use the tea again to ensure no glaring flaws were revealed.

Finally, after a month, having drunk more than half of his Enlightenment White Tea, he came up with an ancient blueprint that appeared to be pulled straight from the Void Blind Box.

And that Void Blind Box he had snatched spending a billion Good Deed Points contained only two large jars of Spiritual Wine of unknown age when opened.

Without an expert’s evaluation, Chen Mobai dared not drink it, but judging from his years of experience with Zhuo Ming’s brewed Spiritual Wine, he felt the two large jars couldn’t exceed Rank-3.

A total loss!

But with this experience, he now had an excuse for introducing items from the Tianhe Realm in the future, simply claiming they came from the Void Blind Box.

Perhaps soon, the Immortal Gate will be abuzz with tales of Chen Mobai’s incredible luck, opening many top-grade materials.

But he couldn’t overdo it; once he saved another billion, he’d open a second Void Blind Box and then wistfully lament in his social circle about a total loss.

To highlight a mix of gains and losses, a “real” unboxing.

The next day, Chen Mobai transformed the ancient plans he had tidied up regarding the Haotian Mirror into a digital version and sent it to Hong Mengkui.

“Huh, you’ve got some good ideas, kid. Incorporating the functions of this ancient treasure into your Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror is indeed feasible, but due to material constraints, it might end up downgrading the grade of your Lifespan Artifact,”

Hong Mengkui, as a Fourth Order Refiner and former head of the Refining Implement Department at Dance Tool Dao Academy, was a master in this field, second only to Master Chengxuan.

After reviewing Chen Mobai’s blueprints and drafts, he was instantly intrigued, and the two of them, separated by the network, began deducing from scratch how to break down the “ancient treasure” functions and incorporate them one by one into the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror.
