I Have A Cultivation World
Chapter 1652 - 818: Master and Disciple of the Sun Bathing SeaChapter 1652: Chapter 818: Master and Disciple of the Sun Bathing Sea
Under the Vermilion Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram, all the toxins within Chen Mobai’s essence, qi, and spirit were expelled from his body.
The originally pale and bluish skin due to poisoning was restored to a jade-like whiteness under the rebirth of the Longevity Taoist Body, radiating a lustrous glow.
Around where he stood, the grass, once green, wilted and yellowed as it absorbed the seeping miasma, losing its vitality.
Even the river before Chen Mobai was filled with demonic fish, floating belly-up with no breath left.
From this, one could see just how terrifying the miasma of the Golden-eyes Azure Toad was.
Chen Mobai cautiously retracted the Void Spirit Eye.
On the opposite side, the Golden-eyes Azure Toad seemed to have sensed that its miasma didn’t harm its opponent. Having already climbed halfway and prepared to leap, it halted.
The man and beast regarded each other with caution from afar.
Ultimately, sensing the power of the Five Elements Dao Soldiers dissipating within him, Chen Mobai decided to retreat for now.
Roar!
On the way back, he heard another roar from a Rank-4 demonic beast, seeming to possess sonic divine skills, further away than the Golden-eyes Azure Toad, yet its sound reached here clearly.
Chen Mobai stopped, using Echoes in the Void to discern the origin and marked an X on the blank area west of the mirage fog on the ruins map compiled by the Five Elements Sect.
This indicated the presence of a Rank-4 demonic beast here; if the Five Elements Sect plans to develop the ruins in the future, it’s best to avoid this location.
Chen Mobai intended to capture Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace in the future and expand the Five Elements Sect’s territory to the East Barbarians region. If the ruins between the two could be developed, it would directly add half of the Eastern Wilderness to their territory.
Of course, arranging a large-scale transmission array would be even better.
However, it was clear that with the current status of the Five Elements Sect, purchasing one from Taixu MiaoMiao Palace was out of reach.
So, they must first consider using past methods of predecessors to develop the ruins between the two regions.
Returning to the ruins at the edge of the Eastern Wilderness, Chen Mobai saw that most of the Ten Thousand Cultivators formation from the Five Elements Sect were already meditating with spirit stones.
Naturally, these spirit stones were provided by the Five Elements Sect.
Gathering ten thousand cultivators to practice Five Elements Dao Soldiers in the last six months consumed a million spirit stones, and this was merely practice; if a real battle arose, the daily expenditure would reach tens of thousands.
Luckily, under Chen Mobai’s new policies over the years, the Five Elements Sect vigorously developed infrastructure, exploited the Eastern Wilderness, revitalized various industries, and made a fortune.
And the small sects following them were also successful; even those loose cultivators without skills found opportunities as laborers in Five Elements Sect’s projects, earning spirit stones beyond what they ever dreamed of.
And a vast portion of these spirit stones was reclaimed by the Five Elements Sect with the development of new cave dwelling properties after establishing medium transporting formations in Northern Abyss City.
After all, every cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness dreams of settling in Northern Abyss City, ideally owning a cave dwelling there with Rank-2 spiritual energy.
With such a life, they would have nothing to worry about.
Unfortunately, the cave dwellings in the inner city were sold out decades ago, and many opt for properties in newly developed suburbs equipped with medium transporting formations.
Of course, purchasing a cave dwelling outright is challenging for loose cultivators.
But there’s no need to worry, as the Five Elements Sect offers loans to cultivators who have worked on its projects, allowing them to reside first and receive the property certificates once the spirit stones are paid off.
Through such means, the current reservoir of spirit stones in the Five Elements Sect has reached seventy million.
Before the major battle, Chen Mobai was a bit surprised by this figure upon consulting Luo Xue’er.
Unknowingly, the initial small goals were nearly achieved.
This was notwithstanding the many spirit stones spent on gathering materials for Returning-to-True Spirit Pill, Lingyuan Pill, and Golden Liquid Jade Pill; otherwise, the reserve could have reached a hundred million.
With grains in hand, one needn’t worry.
With sufficient spirit stones, the Ten Thousand Cultivators of the Five Elements Sect were commanded like extensions of Nu Jiang.
After a month of continuous practice, Chen Mobai mastered the power of the Five Elements Dao Soldiers thoroughly with the Guidance Book. He even activated his external incarnation in that state.
Upon discovering that once freed from the physical constraints, this external incarnation, infused with the Five Elements Dao Soldiers, proved more powerful than his main body, equivalent to Nascent Soul Sixth Layer.
It revealed that although Primordial True Qi can convert into any Five Elements Spiritual Power, it was somewhat mismatched with the Pure Yang Scroll, causing waste during the conversion process.
Realizing this, Chen Mobai began to lead formations with his external incarnation.
However, this external incarnation had more limitations, unable to stray too far from the Eastern Wilderness; otherwise, even if the Five Elements Dao Soldiers power remained steady, Chen Mobai still struggled to control it.
After mastering the power of Five Elements Dao Soldiers, Chen Mobai handed over the role of leading formations to Mo Douguang and others, letting them experience higher realms.
Among them, Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye elevated their power to the initial Nascent Soul realm through the Five Elements Dao Soldiers, immersed in such grand and mighty power.
Nu Jiang and Sheng Zhaoxi, lacking in realm, could only experience the perfection of their current state.
Time flowed.
Soon, another half a year passed.
At this moment, the ten thousand cultivators of the Five Elements Taoist Soldiers were already deeply familiar with the war formations, and several Foundation Establishment Completion seeds of the Five Elements Five Meridians had, under the guidance of Chen Mobai, experienced the power of the Core Formation level several times.
Today, it was Tan Rong of the Fire Vein, disciple of Sheng Zhaoxi, leading the formation, followed by Ning Leshan and Ban Zhaodan of the Metal Vein.
Chen Mobai did not concern himself with this matter; he took the letter from Yu Lian’s hand and began reading it.
Recorded within were all sorts of intelligence that Zhou Shengqing, leading Zhou Wangshen and others, had gathered over the past year in the Eastern Barbarians.
Mainly, it focused on the traces of Nascent Soul cultivators from the Three Great Sects.
There was some rather unpleasant news: both Golden Wind Ancestor and Baiwu Ancestor had returned from above the Mysterious Sea.
However, after their return, they gathered their cultivator armies that were previously stationed before Kong Sang Valley and withdrew back to their respective Immortal City sects.
Zhou Shengqing was a bit puzzled by this.
Their return would obviously indicate the defeat of the master-disciple duo, Mu Qin and Ku Zhu.
According to the customs of the Tianhe Realm, one would surely seize the victory and exterminate the enemy.
Why suddenly retreat?
Could they have suddenly developed a tender heart?
Zhou Shengqing was unable to fathom the reasoning, so he documented it and sent it to Chen Mobai through Yu Lian.
“After you return, tell Senior Brother that he can send someone to Kong Sang Valley to see if True Person Mingwen and Yi Chenghan are there.”
Chen Mobai considered it for a moment; they couldn’t send people to probe deeply into Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace and Sun Bathing Sea, but being the other party involved, there was still some connection.
If both Nascent Soul cultivators, Mu Qin and Ku Zhu, did not return, then these two late-stage Core Formation cultivators would evidently become the bosses of Kong Sang Valley.
Asking them might yield some useful information.
Moreover, without the Nascent Soul to hold the fort, it was obvious Kong Sang Valley couldn’t carry on in the Eastern Barbarians; knowing that Chen Mobai had already undergone Nascent Soul Formation, with Five Elements Sect having someone like Zhou Shengqing, Yi Chenghan’s first reaction would surely be to seek refuge by establishing a branch in the Eastern Wilderness.
After all, the two sides did have cooperative relations; as long as Kong Sang Valley came forward to pay their respects early, Chen Mobai would certainly be willing to take them in.
“Yes, Sect Leader!”
Upon hearing this, Yu Lian nodded and left immediately, making his way towards the Eastern Barbarians without pause.
“Junior Brother, is there any situation in the Eastern Barbarians?”
After Yu Lian left, Nu Jiang and others also flew over. Chen Mobai didn’t hide the matter from them and handed out Zhou Shengqing’s letter.
After reading through it, everyone’s expressions turned somewhat hopeful.
Since Golden Wind Ancestor had returned, it meant that their opponents were still there, and the Five Elements Taoist Soldiers, prepared for a long time, might soon be able to serve their purpose.
“Let all the disciples endure a bit longer; I’m going back to Northern Abyss City to ask the Sky Meal Building over there if they have any new intelligence.”
Chen Mobai’s words caused Nu Jiang and the others to nod in agreement.
…
Golden Crow Immortal City.
Just returning with the army of Bather of The Sea Cultivators, Baiwu Ancestor looked deeply at Zhu Jun and other Core Formation disciples before him, a heavy expression on his face, and furrowed his brows slightly.
“I require an explanation as to why the teleportation array was suddenly sealed after returning from Star Heaven Dao Sect?”
Upon returning, Baiwu Ancestor discovered that his eldest disciple Zhu Jun had caused quite a bit of trouble.
Initially, she suspected that Chen Mobai was Daozi Chen Qing of First Origin Dao Palace; to seize the Three Lights Divine Water from him, she went as far as to forcibly seal the teleportation array of Golden Crow Immortal City and even searched various commerce associations within the Immortal City, thoroughly offending everyone.
Although Zhu Jun later personally apologized to each one, the commerce associations from several Holy Lands valued their face greatly. How hard Zhu Jun was originally, they were equally unyielding, refusing her apologies.
Upon his return, Baiwu Ancestor was also informed of these matters by other disciples. Even considering his status, upon hearing this, combined with the unsuccessful extinguishment of Kong Sang Valley, his anger flared up.
Hearing his icy words, Zhu Jun knew her master was angry; she gritted her teeth and communicated through telepathy to recount the events during the Beidou Conference and her speculations to Baiwu Ancestor.
“Oh, there was such an incident!”
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the frost in Baiwu Ancestor’s eyes dissipated. He then waved at the other two Core Formation disciples in the hall, dismissing them.
“Please punish me, Master.”
Once they were alone, Zhu Jun knelt before Baiwu Ancestor, performing a great ceremony.
“Come over!”
Baiwu Ancestor spoke only these two words. Zhu Jun obediently got up, undid her waist sash of jade belt, and the pale-golden Sunbathing Immortal Robe fell to the ground.
Soon, her fair and graceful figure fell into her master’s embrace…
