Chapter 1249: Chapter 686 Ripening Peach Fruit_2 Chapter 1249: Chapter 686 Ripening Peach Fruit_2 “Master, actually, in the first year when the Jian Country’s army was blocked by Lei Nation, King Han already knew that it would be very difficult to break through Duan Shuyu’s defenses by land alone, so he had the Second Prince lead an army to attack the front, while the Third Prince gathered all the nation’s craftsmen to build large ships.”

“Having taken down the shores of Yun Country and Rain Country in Yun Meng Ze, the skilled shipbuilders from these two countries helped, and within three years, a sufficient number of warships were constructed.”

“Last month, the Third Prince led sixty thousand naval troops and took a water route through Yun Meng Ze, avoiding Duan Shuyu’s defenses, and directly landed in the heartland of Lei Nation, quickly breaking into the capital and exterminating the Sheng royal family.”

At this point, Jiang Zongheng’s face showed a look of regret.

The King of Lei Nation was no less wise than King Han; it’s just unfortunate that Lei Nation was weak. Even with a peerless general like Duan Shuyu, the end was still death and the extinction of his clan.

Following King Sheng’s death, Jian Country’s land and sea forces coordinated an attack on Duan Shuyu from both within and without, coupled with Lei Nation’s turncoat faction, Duan Shuyu was left without the means to turn the tide.

But even so, he held out for two months, until the supplies were exhausted, and he had no choice but to look up to the sky and sigh deeply before drawing his sword to end his own life.

“Dead?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but show a look of regret.

Even he had great respect for this Duan Shuyu, thinking that such a person could be kept for the unification of the Eastern Wilderness as a leading figure.

“Officially, he’s dead, but in reality, he was rescued by the Black Dragon Guard of Rock Country. The one who committed suicide was a body double.”

This kind of thing might fool common folk, but not Jiang Zongheng, who had been paying attention to the whole process.

“In your opinion, between King Han and King Zhao, who will ultimately be the one to prevail over the world?”

Based on the apparent strength, Rock Country naturally couldn’t compete with Jian Country, but if a renowned general from the Eastern Wilderness like Duan Shuyu were to defect to King Zhao, it might lead to an unexpected outcome.

“King Han is wise; with him around, Jian Country just needs to press on with its rightful and grand momentum. Even if Rock Country has Duan Shuyu, at best, they can only hold on to a corner of the land.”

Jiang Zongheng gave his assessment.

After listening, Chen Mobai nodded gently. While the master and disciple were discussing the situation of the world, Gu Yan came back with Zhuo Ming.

“Greetings, Master!”

“Hahaha, no need for such formalities.”

Chen Mobai saw Zhuo Ming and couldn’t help but reveal a smile, gesturing for her to stand up.

“Master, when I heard you had emerged from seclusion, Luo Shimei also wanted to come, but it just so happens that Senior Sister Yin is at a critical moment in her cultivation, so she stayed behind as a protector…”

After Zhuo Ming stood up, she first spoke of one matter; Yin Qingmei was near Foundation Establishment Completion!

She had already reached the late phase of Foundation Establishment before, and Chen Mobai had even bestowed a Rank-3 Immortal Peach Fruit upon her.

Last year, she felt that she had reached a critical moment in her cultivation, so she exchanged her own slot at the Spirit Treasure Pavilion for another one. Sure enough, after consuming it, there were signs of a breakthrough in the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture.

Although Luo Yixuan was somewhat petty-minded, under Chen Mobai’s many years of verbal instruction and personal example, she was still clear about major rights and wrongs.

Knowing that Yin Qingmei, with her Heavenly Spiritual Root at Foundation Establishment Completion, would basically signal that Divine Wood Sect would gain another Golden Core Cultivator, she stayed by her side at all times to prevent any accidents.

“You’ve worked hard, Xuan.”

Chen Mobai was indeed very pleased when he heard this. His disciple was sensible, which made him as a teacher feel a great sense of achievement.

“Master, what is it that you called me here for?”

Zhuo Ming asked, she was extremely busy every day in Rainbow Country.

In addition to combating desertification, there’s also Dari Purple Rice, and sometimes she even had to oversee the progress of the confluence of the two great rivers.

Because Luo Xue’er had refined a Heterodox Golden Core, the efficiency of opening up the Mo River greatly increased. She took charge personally, not only catching up with the White River but even surpassing it.

During the time Chen Mobai was in seclusion, to keep up with the accelerated progress of the Mo River, Zhuo Ming had no choice but to dispatch more contractors, striving not to delay the important conjunction of the two rivers.

If Chen Mobai hadn’t called for her, Zhuo Ming may not have been able to find the time to come to Giant Tree Ridge.

“Your teacher has obtained a type of Spiritual Liquid called ‘Water of Ten Thousand Transformations,’ which can revitalize all beings and promote the growth of all things…”

Chen Mobai explained to Zhuo Ming the reason for calling her, that he wanted her help to hasten the maturation of the Rank-4 Immortal Peach Fruit.

Everyone present showed a look of shock upon hearing the effects of the Water of Ten Thousand Transformations.

“The Longevity Sect actually possesses such a miraculous Spiritual Liquid!”

After the shock, Zhuo Ming spoke.

Because Chen Mobai often produced treasures that far surpassed the foundation of the Divine Wood Sect, his disciples automatically assumed they were from the Longevity Sect, and Chen Mobai just smiled without contradicting them.

Zhuo Ming’s time was precious, and after Chen Mobai spoke, he personally piloted the “Red Misty Cloud Silk,” taking her, Jiang Zongheng, and Gu Yan to Xiao Nanshan.

This place had already transformed into a Fourth Grade Spirit Vein. Sadly, the cultivators of this lineage were all busy with different matters, so apart from being absorbed by the Immortal Peach Tree and other Spirit Plants, much of the Spiritual Energy dissipated into the void, captured by the Array of Ten Thousand Woods.

Nevertheless, this kind of waste would not occur in the future.

After Chen Mobai landed on the mountaintop, he took out a Supreme-grade Spirit Stone engraved with a charging Formation and placed it casually on a large rock at the highest point.

In this way, the escaping Spiritual Energy from Xiao Nanshan would be absorbed by this Supreme-grade Spirit Stone.

This was the third one.

Chen Mobai had already placed the other two in his Longevity Wood Dojo.

Based on his estimate, if he didn’t compete for Spiritual Energy, it would take approximately two years to fully charge a Supreme-grade Spirit Stone in the Longevity Wood Dojo.

But for the one at Xiao Nanshan, since priority must be given to supplying plants like the Immortal Peach Tree, Tea Tree, Pure Bamboo, and so on, it could only absorb some peripheral Spiritual Energy, and might take five to six years.

Of course, it was also possible to charge by placing a Supreme-grade Spirit Stone in a Rank-3 Spirit Vein.

However, Chen Mobai estimated that by the time it was fully charged, the Rank-3 Spirit Vein would probably be drained and exhausted.

Draining a pool for fish was not sustainable, so Chen Mobai’s idea was to start charging it here.

After all, the most significant use of a fully charged Supreme-grade Spirit Stone at this stage for him was to suppress the Fourth Grade Spirit Vein.

If it became an urgent matter in the future, he could use the authority of the Sect Leader to pour all the Spiritual Energy accumulated in the Array of Ten Thousand Woods, but that would affect the cultivation progress of many disciples within the sect.

Generally, this was only done when someone in the sect was about to break through to Golden Core or “Nascent Soul Formation.”

After Chen Mobai placed the Supreme-grade Spirit Stone and adjusted its efficiency in absorbing Spiritual Energy, he gently stamped his foot, and Tai Sui emerged.

“Watch over this stone…”

Tai Sui nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

These past years had been its most comfortable time. Zhuo Ming had left, and Chen Mobai hadn’t come by either; with no one to command it, it roamed leisurely within the Fourth Grade Spirit Vein, utterly carefree.

Chen Mobai even saw a faint dark cyan glow on Tai Sui’s pitch-black body.

In the Immortal Gate, there was a Fourth Grade Tai Sui with feathers green as emerald; every time Three Spirit Medicines were refined for “Nascent Soul Formation,” a piece was cut off as the main ingredient.

Since Yan Shaoyin was about to refine the Infant-Feeding Elixir, observing the cyan glow on Tai Sui’s body inspired Chen Mobai to contemplate accelerating its growth by Pulling Seedlings to Promote Growth.

However, given Tai Sui’s special nature as a Spiritual Object, he wasn’t certain Pulling Seedlings to Promote Growth would be effective.

Thus, after much hesitation, he decided not to take action.

“Master, which Immortal Peach fruits do you want to ripen?”

At this moment, Zhuo Ming, having communicated with the Immortal Peach Tree, was holding the Water of Ten Thousand Transformations Chen Mobai had given her and flew up to the branches laden with unripe fruits, asking him.

Chen Mobai flew over to take a look. Thanks to the Spirit Vein of Xiao Nanshan and Zhuo Ming’s Mother Qi of All Things, a total of twelve Rank-4 Immortal Peaches had fruited.

And the Water of Ten Thousand Transformations listed on the shelves of Jumang Academy was in limited supply, enough to infuse at most nine peaches.

Chen Mobai thought back to his experience consuming Rank-3 Immortal Peach Fruit.

A person could consume up to five at most without effect; two had the best cost-effectiveness, but by the third, it was somewhat wasteful.

Conscious of avoiding waste, Chen Mobai selected five of the largest unripe peaches and asked Zhuo Ming to infuse them with the Water of Ten Thousand Transformations.
