I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1303: Chapter 717: Entering the Ruins for the First Time Chapter 1303: Chapter 717: Entering the Ruins for the First Time Please have Zhou Shengqing stay behind to preside over the Eastern Wilderness.

Chen Mobai immediately began to transfer personnel, and because a large number of elite cultivators had already been dispatched to support the Wind Rain Hamlet and the Five Elements Meridians, Chen Mobai did not ask for many this time.

Upon allocation, it was only two Foundation Establishment Practitioners from each vein, and a hundred Qi Practitioners.

But he had requirements for these practitioners.

The Foundation Establishment Practitioners had to be proficient in the Five Elements Dao Soldiers, and the one hundred Qi Practitioners should be evenly distributed among the early, mid, and late phases, preferably young and talented, so he could offer guidance when leading the team should time permit.

Of course, Chen Mobai was accustomed to thinking up a grand reason whenever he moved his subordinates.

This time’s reason was to prepare to develop the Ruins.

With the Eastern Wilderness almost entirely under control, if the Five Elements Sect were to continue expanding, it would have to look beyond the Eastern Wilderness.

After the Snow-blowing Palace’s retreat, even with some hindrance in secret, Jiang Zongheng still swiftly led the Rock Country’s grand army to capture Snow Country.

The subsequent Wind Country, although the royal family was reluctant and many local powers attempted to use their geographic advantage to preserve their wealth and status, succumbed to the overwhelming Rock Country’s grand army within just ten short days, with many Wind Country cultivator families defecting.

After capturing Frost, Snow, and Wind Countries, the Rock Country’s grand army did not rest but directly, under Duan Shuyu’s leadership, advanced southward towards the Summer Country, home to Back to Sky Valley.

Originally, Jiang Zongheng was prepared for a battle with the cultivators of Back to Sky Valley.

Unexpectedly, Back to Sky Valley sent He Jintong over, who swiftly reached the same kind of agreement with them as the Snow-blowing Palace had.

After all, the foundation of Back to Sky Valley was the Spirit Veins and medicinal fields scattered everywhere.

Even without mundane power, as long as they still controlled the land, they had the chance to rise again in the future.

Moreover, compared to the Snow-blowing Palace, Back to Sky Valley was confident it could attract people with Spiritual Roots from the mundane world with better conditions to join their sect.

Another most crucial reason was that Yan Shaoyin was currently wholeheartedly committed to refining the Infant-Feeding Elixir, preparing for “Nascent Soul Formation.”

For this, as long as the Five Elements Sect was not overly excessive, concessions could be made.

Once he achieved “Nascent Soul Formation,” everything could be demanded back from the Five Elements Sect, with interest.

After realizing this, Yan Shaoyin immediately sent He Jintong to negotiate the contract with Jiang Zongheng.

However, although Back to Sky Valley conceded, the royal family of the Summer Country still did not want to give up their centuries-old foundation, and, with the assistance of their ally Flower Country, they were putting up a fierce resistance.

In response, Jiang Zongheng did not directly move to destroy the two countries.

Because the people from the Star Heaven Commerce Guild, worried that a great war among the mundane could damage the Ten Thousand Acres of Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice in Flower Country, had already come to visit the battlefield.

Jiang Zongheng was negotiating with the people from the Star Heaven Commerce Guild.

Regarding this, Chen Mobai also granted him full authority; Summer Country had to be taken, but for Flower Country, out of consideration for the Star Heaven Dao Sect, it could be spared.

This was also the agreement he reached with Lou Xuelong, but how to allocate and arrange it specifically still needed to be discussed by those below.

However, the trend of unifying the Eastern Wilderness had already been spotted by all cultivators.

Everyone thought this was the prelude to the Five Elements Sect’s bottom-up plan to seize all resources in the Eastern Wilderness.

After the unification of the Eastern Wilderness, it was foreseeable that the resources of the Five Elements Sect would surge, so when the documents with Chen Mobai’s signature reached the Five Elements Meridians, many practitioners actively applied to join his Ruins exploration team.

Apart from wishing to be noticed by Chen Mobai, they also hoped to receive guidance from this well-known Great Sage and Good Teacher of the Eastern Wilderness.

After all, the listing of the Golden Liquid Jade Pill had caused a stir in Wood Vein, and all Foundation Establishment Practitioners from the remaining four veins, hoping to be eligible for the next share of refined elixirs, were all looking for excuses.

This time Chen Mobai took the initiative to shake up the personnel, and he himself was leading the team, causing a small scale of internal competition within the Five Elements Meridians to gain this opportunity.

The Foundation Establishment Practitioners from the four veins who finally came over gave Chen Mobai a bit of a surprise.

Among the people from Earth Vein was momentarily the former Sect Leader Chun Yusu, as well as Kong Shanxu, one Foundation Establishment Completion and one Foundation Establishment Late Phase, the two deepest in cultivation next to Zhou Ye.

The two from Fire Vein were no less impressive, Tan Rong, and another aged practitioner at Foundation Establishment Completion, named Zhu Xicheng, the latter reportedly wishing to attempt Core Formation before the end of his life, hoping for guidance from Chen Mobai.

From Metal Vein came acquaintances as well, Ning Leshan and Ban Zhaodan.

Ning Leshan was also close to Foundation Establishment Completion, and if the next batch of Golden Liquid Jade Pills were to be shared with the Five Elements Meridians, he would be Metal Vein’s most likely candidate.

Ban Zhaodan, once a part of the Five-Colored Immortal Seed, was even more talented than Ning Leshan. However, he had spent a long time at the stage of Foundation Establishment, reportedly because of his overly forthright character, which led to an infestation of Heart Demons during his first consumption of the Foundation Building Pill, causing him to fail at the stage of Divine Sense emergence.

After the failure in Foundation Establishment, Ban Zhaodan faced a great deal of derision, nearly drove him to extremity at first–after all, not everyone can endure such a drastic downfall from grace.

But after twenty years of stagnation and tempering, his once obstinate Sword Heart began to mature and round out, and during a session of Sword Training, he had an epiphany, letting go of the sword in his hand. Afterwards, he meditated atop a mountain peak for three days and three nights, achieved enlightenment, and completed his Foundation Establishment.
