I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 906: Chapter 501: Return to Hometown Chapter 906: Chapter 501: Return to Hometown Having a name in the Kaiyuan Hall signifies that Chen Mobai had officially become part of the upper echelons of the Immortal Gate.

Because he was to assume the role of principal at Qing Sang Academy in Yu Wood City, this city, one of the Seventy-Two Blessed Lands of Xianmen, was allotted to him.

Not long after Chen Mobai received the five-pointed star badge from Wang Shuye, symbolizing his status as a Kaiyuan Hall councilor, Wen Ping, the City Lord of Yu Wood City, made a phone call to inquire when the leader would arrive and if there were any specific requirements for his office and residence.

Chen Mobai didn’t know much about Wen Ping, so he simply exchanged pleasantries, stating that everything would be discussed upon his arrival and, for the time being, to continue as usual.

“Director Che said you were mature beyond your years, but I had my doubts. I thought that a young genius like you would be wild and arrogant, flamboyant and unrestrained. It turns out that really is the case,” said Wang Shuye. He was a middle-aged man with a distinguished appearance and poised demeanor, and he was the highest-ranking representative of the Dance Tool Dao Academy within the ranks of Xianmen.

He was also at the ninth level of Gold Core, and he had essentially reserved a Fruit-Feeding Elixir for himself, refined from a matured Fifth-Order Vermilion Fruit.

As the leader of the Dance Tool Dao Academy’s officialdom faction, he and Duanmu Longrong of the Hermit faction were the Nascent Soul seeds that the academy would support in the future.

“I owe a great deal to Senior Brother Wang for his mediation, which allowed me to become a councilor of the Kaiyuan Hall so smoothly,” Chen Mobai courteously said. He climbed the ranks swiftly; a councilor of the Kaiyuan Hall was the pinnacle for an Immortal Gate civil servant, but facing Wang Shuye, he still addressed himself as a junior of the Daoist Academy.

“Ha ha, with your reputation, Ye Yune would not dare to hold you back for long. Even without me, after two or three attempts, she would have approved you regardless,” Wang Shuye said, not mentioning why Ye Yune would be obstructing Chen Mobai, and the latter tactfully didn’t ask.

After all, Ye Yune was amongst the highest ranks of the Immortal Gate, only below those Nascent Soul Superiors in terms of power and influence.

With Nascent Souls generally not involving themselves in such matters, Gongye Zhixu, Ye Yune, Wang Shuye, and others like them, were essentially the stewards of the Immortal Gate system.

Chen Mobai made a mental note of Ye Yune’s obstruction. If he ever reached “Nascent Soul Formation,” he would bring up the matter again.

Chen Mobai could be somewhat petty at times.

But if he didn’t reach Nascent Soul or if Ye Yune achieved it first, he would act as if the issue never existed.

Until then, it was best to continue cultivating discreetly.

In the evening, Chen Mobai dined with Wang Shuye, who mentioned some individuals of interest within the Three Great Halls of Xianmen–all wielders of real power, with authority no less than his own.

Chen Mobai listened attentively while raising his glass in toast.

Latterly, Wang Shuye mentioned some privileges of being a Kaiyuan Hall councilor, for instance, the ability to apply for Third Rank Superior Grade Spiritual Energy from Xianmen without charge, and access to the Heavenly Curtain.

“What is the Heavenly Curtain?” Chen Mobai always asked when he didn’t understand something.

“It’s the Tian Gang Pure Breath and Earth Fetal Membrane that covers the entire Di Yuan Star. These were damaged by a previous civilization, so when the Five Ancestors of Xianmen arrived, they used heavenly techniques to condense them into the ‘Heavenly Curtain.’ When fully activated, it functions as a Sixth Order Great Array.”

“However, it’s usually just the basic functions that are engaged, mainly to absorb the essence of the sun, moon, stars, and the Taixu breath of the cosmos, providing energy to the Sixth Grade Spirit Vein of the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains, nourishing the two venerable ancestors for their cultivation.”

“As a Pure Yang Scroll cultivator, you can refine the essence of the sun into Pure Yang Purple Qi. But without this access, any essence of the sun you manage to draw in will be intercepted by the Heavenly Curtain, as it treats all Spiritual Energy within the realm of Di Yuan Star as its own.”

After Wang Shuye’s explanation, Chen Mobai finally understood why, when he used the Formless Puppet to condense Pure Yang Purple Qi, it suddenly disappeared upon entering the airspace above Di Yuan Star–it turned out he had been unwittingly working for the Heavenly Curtain.

Wary that there might be other such things within Xianmen he didn’t know about, he immediately continued to seek guidance, and Wang Shuye patiently informed him of each one.

At the end, Chen Mobai hesitated, wondering whether to discuss with Wang Shuye the matter mentioned by Lan Haitian. But considering the depth of the waters involved, he surmised that it might not be advisable to entangle Wang Shuye; better not to drag him into it.

After all, he had already reported it to the Daoist Academy. If there was a major issue, Master Chengxuan would handle it.

If Master Chengxuan couldn’t cope, there was still Ancestor Baiguang above him.

With the deep-rooted support of their Dance Instruments Daoist Academy, as long as Chen Mobai didn’t engage in illegal activities within the Immortal Gate, even if his involvement with Qing Nu’s mysterious origins reached the Leading Star Ancestor, he would still be protected.

Thinking this way, Chen Mobai felt his longstanding worries suddenly clear, and he was free from any troubles lingering in his mind.

Before leaving, of course, he had to say farewell to Qing Nu.

That day, a light drizzle began to fall unexpectedly. Chen Mobai used the “Red Misty Cloud Silk” to transform into a colorful cloud umbrella, held above their heads as they walked side by side along a shopping street, looking from a distance like a sweet, young couple.

“I’m leaving.”

“Mhm.”

“Call me if you need anything. With my current status, at the very least, I can ensure your safety.”

“I’m in Group 4, mainly responsible for medical research and experiments. I won’t have those kinds of dangerous missions,” Qing Nu said, thinking Chen Mobai was worried about her being tasked with combat or assassination missions in the Sky-Mending Group.
