I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1223: Chapter 672: Reencountering Xuan Shu Chapter 1223: Chapter 672: Reencountering Xuan Shu This year, Chen Mobai celebrated his sixtieth birthday.

Before heading to the Eastern Desolation Plateau, he made a special trip back to the Immortal Gate since many relatives and friends had sent messages to congratulate him.

The Immortal Gate paid great attention to one’s sixtieth birthday celebration. Originally, according to Tang Panchui’s wishes, it was to be grandly celebrated, but Chen Mobai, being naturally reserved, only invited his relatives for a simple family banquet.

After dining with his family, Chen Mobai joined Yan Bingxuan and other friends for a meal.

Unfortunately, many people were overly reverent towards him.

This made Chen Mobai feel a sense of loneliness and desolation.

After the dinner, he and Yan Bingxuan, the only one he could still interact with normally, had a nighttime snack and shared his lament about the decreasing number of close friends.

The next morning, after making phone calls to friends who couldn’t attend, Chen Mobai returned to Giant Tree Ridge.

In Zhou Shengqing’s Longevity Wood Dojo, he calmly brewed tea and served Chen Mobai, Mo Douguang, and Fu Zongjue.

“Junior Brother Mo should return to Golden Cliff tomorrow, and it’s best to make some noise when you go back, let people know,” Zhou Shengqing suggested.

Now, Mo Douguang, publicly recognized as the foremost Golden Core Sword Cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness, who possessed formidable combat power, was the person the Divine Wood Sect’s adversaries most dreaded.

If Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace intended to kill Chen Mobai, they would definitely ascertain his whereabouts to avoid encountering him unexpectedly.

Surprised by Zhou Shengqing’s arrangement, Mo Douguang nonetheless did not object and simply nodded his agreement.

“Junior Brother Fu should also stay in the Sect, letting others think that Junior Brother Chen whimsically wants to inspect the progress on the plateau,” Zhou Shengqing continued.

Fu Zongjue also nodded his approval. With Zhou Shengqing around, unless the Golden Wind Ancestor personally came from Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, even if all six Golden Cores except Fang Xuanyang attacked the Eastern Wilderness, they would be easily defeated.

Zhou Shengqing suggested, “Before we leave, let’s have someone take care of Du Feng, as he’s no longer of any use.”

Chen Mobai responded, “Yes, I’ve already made arrangements.”

Zhou Shengqing presented a Rank-4 Spirit Leaf Talisman he had refined, “Junior Brother Chen, since you’re risking yourself, take this for now to guard against the suicidal attempts of Xuan Xiao’s Golden Core Cultivators.”

Chen Mobai thanked him, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”

The four discussed the possibility of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace losing too many Golden Core Cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness and being unable to confront Kong Sang Valley in the East Barbarians.

“Now, even if the Golden Wind Ancestor personally leads all cultivators from Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, relying on the Large Formation and terrain advantage, we are confident we can hold them off. After Brother Zhou’s ‘Nascent Soul Formation’, we need not fear anymore. Besides, having cultivated a foundation for a thousand years, the Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace in the East Barbarians wouldn’t easily give up until the bitter end,” Zhou Shengqing asserted.

Chen Mobai voiced his opinion on this, gaining nods of agreement from Zhou Shengqing and others.

“This time, since Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace is actively targeting Junior Brother Chen, we cannot endure any longer. After we eliminate Fang Xuanyang and others, the Sect will mobilize and prepare for battle against Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace.”

“If Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace indeed comes from the East Barbarians, the first battlefield they encounter will be on the Eastern Desolation Plateau. The Northern Abyss City’s Mount Meru Nine Palaces Formation currently is only Rank-3. If it cannot be upgraded to Rank-4, it may not withstand a battle involving Nascent Soul Level power.”

“For a decisive strategic victory, and to ensure the Eastern Wilderness’s inland regions remain unaffected by war, we need to keep the battle confined to the plateau, preventing Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace’s forces from descending.”

In the room was also a three-dimensional topographical map of the entire Eastern Desolate Frontier produced by the Spirit Vein Division, which Zhou Shengqing pointed at as he discussed contingency plans should war with Sky Country and Rock Country occur.

“Can we strike first and halt the Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace army at The Ruins?”

Chen Mobai’s remark made Zhou Shengqing and the others reflect. Although The Ruins were fraught with danger, rumored even to harbor Rank-4 demonic beings, pushing the battlefield there would be more beneficial than detrimental to the Divine Wood Sect and the whole Eastern Wilderness.

After all, the Eastern Desolation Plateau had been developed over many years, just reaching a point of yielding constant benefits; a major battle here would likely destroy much of Zhuo Ming and others’ hard work.

Furthermore, if a battle involving Nascent Soul Level power truly erupted, the Northern Abyss City, only shielded by a Rank-3 Large Formation, could potentially be leveled.

“After eliminating the incoming forces from Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, I’ll personally visit The Ruins to check for any dangerous demonic beasts or evil entities,” Zhou Shengqing declared, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator proficient in the defense-intensive Immortality Scripture, confident in escaping even if he encountered a Rank-4 adversary.

After their discussion, each departed separately.

The next day, Mo Douguang openly used the Teleportation Array in front of many Divine Wood Sect disciples to leave Giant Tree Ridge.

Naturally, Du Feng immediately learned of this and used an Identical Seal Talisman to inform the operatives of the Restoration Society stationed outside Giant Tree Ridge.

“Thank you, Sect Leader, for your guidance!”

In the Shenmu Hall, Zheng Deming respectfully bowed to Chen Mobai before him.

“There is a traitor within the Sect who has leaked many important details. Would you be willing to eliminate him on my behalf?”
