I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 972: Upgrade Puppet Factory_2 Chapter 972: Upgrade Puppet Factory_2 After reaching Core Formation, Chen Mobai’s network of connections was incomparable to that of the Foundation Establishment stage.

“A Rank-3 Heavenly Calculation Bead!”

Upon receiving Chen Mobai’s call, Fu Borong, the head of the Repairing Heaven Institute, felt somewhat troubled, but thinking that this individual had the Qualification of Deification and could potentially be one of the top figures of the Immortal Gate in the future, he agreed to help Chen Mobai out by using his influence to facilitate matters.

A Rank-3 Heavenly Calculation Bead could only be custom ordered from the Immortal Gate, and due to its wide-ranging uses, it was backordered for decades.

Additionally, being on the waiting list was one thing, but whether the Repairing Heaven Institute would accept the order was another matter entirely.

Chen Mobai had a decent amount of clout, and after Fu Borong spoke on his behalf, the main director of the mathematics department at the Repairing Heaven Institute reluctantly took the order.

Once the order was accepted, it meant that the manufacturing of the Rank-3 Heavenly Calculation Bead had begun.

Chen Mobai paid a deposit of ten million Good Deed Points, and after securing this most crucial core component, he began reaching out to people.

Chai Lun was still tasked with puppet production. This time, to avoid having him cover the costs upfront, Chen Mobai used his influence to allow Chai Lun free choice in selecting various types of Spirit Wood resources from Yu Wood City.

He had originally planned to use metal, but since the Rank-3 Heavenly Calculation Bead took up nearly half of the total budget, he could only resort to the cheaper option of using wood.

The main reason was that, as the leader of Yu Wood City, Chen Mobai could acquire Spirit Wood almost at cost, and he could even mix in some Rank-2 Green Yang Spiritual Wood synthesized using the Jia Wood Jue from the Divine Tree Secret Realm, these advantages were so substantial that the expensive Spirit Materials of various metals were naturally weeded out.

However, his funds were considerably more robust than during the Foundation Establishment stage, and as a councilor of the Kaiyuan Hall, he could borrow the maximum amount from the bank of the Immortal Gate.

The bank at Yu Wood City stated that they could lend all the funds they had available, which was around eighty million Good Deed Points.

With ample Good Deed Points, Chen Mobai acted confidently. He started reaching out to the other two members of his Formless Puppet creation team.

He planned to use bionics materials for the key joints and mechanisms of the puppet, while continuing to use Spirit Wood for the less critical parts. This would significantly extend the puppet’s service life, which, with proper maintenance, could be fifty to sixty years without issues.

“No problem, just send me the blueprints, and I’ll arrange everything right away.”

Wen Ren Xuewei thought Chen Mobai was contacting her for some important matter; she had even specially interrupted her tea time for this.

“I’ve managed to keep alive the Enlightenment White Tea plant you gave me. I’ve started drinking the Rank-2 tea leaves…”

Since he had made the call, Chen Mobai also took the opportunity to strengthen his relationship with Wen Ren Xuewei, who, after all, had mastered the Longevity Technique and was destined to reach “Nascent Soul Formation” without any accidents.

“How is it, good flavor, right…”

When the topic of tea leaves came up, Wen Ren Xuewei’s casual tone suddenly became interested as she started to ask Chen Mobai carefully about his various experiences and observations while growing the Spirit Plant tea tree.

Luckily, Chen Mobai had been very attentive to the survival of the Enlightenment White Tea plant from the beginning, frequently consulting with Zhuo Ming. Although he wasn’t as intimately aware as Zhuo Ming, who had personally cultivated it, he had still directly inquired about the full process from when the tea tree was planted and took root to when it advanced to Rank-2, so he had no problems discussing it with Wen Ren Xuewei.

In fact, because he mentioned some of the real experiences with the tea tree he got from Zhong Ming’s All Things Spiritual Rhinoceros, he even managed to impress Wen Ren Xuewei.

These were details she hadn’t noticed when she was cultivating and transplanting, not realizing that watering the tea seeds with Spiritual Water at that particular time would make them joyous…

“If you were to dedicate yourself entirely to Spirit Plant cultivation, your achievements would not be inferior to those of your Sword Dao.”

Wen Ren Xuewei said with a touch of admiration, under the impression that it was Chen Mobai who had personally nurtured the tea plant’s survival and advancement.

Although she had long known that he was extraordinary and that there was nothing he couldn’t do if he set his mind to it, it was the first time Wen Ren Xuewei felt a sense of admiration for someone who had surpassed her in her area of greatest confidence, the cultivation of Spirit Plant tea trees.

Previously, she was less accomplished than Chen Mobai because she couldn’t defeat him.

But this time, it was in the field where she had the most confidence.

“Not at all, it survived by chance…”

Chen Mobai dared not carry on the conversation further.

Zhuo Ming had only cultivated the tea tree to Rank-2, and continuing the talk would lead to nothing more to say. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he said that he still had matters to discuss regarding the custom ordering of machines and hung up.

For the assembly line production of talisman paper and ink, Chen Mobai naturally turned to the Tiangong Instrument Factory. Like Wen Ren Xuewei, Zhou Tiangong only charged him the cost price, personally helping him with the design and calibration of the machines. He even considered the integration with the puppets, the incorporation of the Heavenly Calculation Bead, and the planning and upgrading of the factory layout.

Once the core chip, raw material supply, machine equipment, and puppet production were all arranged, Chen Mobai finally had time to meet with his good friend.

“Your cultivation level has progressed quite rapidly; you’ve already reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment.”

Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan walked beneath the shade of trees, breathing in the fresh air of the forest, chatting and laughing together.

“Compared to you, I seem a bit clumsy.”

Facing Chen Mobai, Yan Bingxuan revealed a rare gentle smile.

Because Chen Mobai needed to apply to the Kaiyuan Hall every time he wanted to leave Yu Wood City, Yan Bingxuan could only visit him once a year. She studied Ice Soul Divine Light at the Repairing Heaven Institute and, when her progress stalled, she would come here to relax and unwind.

Chen Mobai truly enjoyed the time spent in conversation with her. Since his Core Formation, among his high school classmates, only she maintained regular contact with him.

The rest, perhaps due to their elevated statuses, had all consciously refrained from initiating contact with him.

Yan Bingxuan stayed in Yu Wood City for three days, during which Chen Mobai treated her to rice flower fish brought from Xiao Nanshan, marking the most carefree period since his Core Formation.

“I’m leaving now, see you next year.”

Hearing Yan Bingxuan’s words, Chen Mobai reluctantly saw her off on the airplane.

His time with Yan Bingxuan gave him an unprecedented sense of comfort and ease.

When he was with her, his mind would be completely at ease, without any need to worry or be anxious about anything.

However, such days also had the potential to erode his own fighting spirit. At his core, Chen Mobai was a person who constantly sought to improve himself.

After seeing Yan Bingxuan off, just as he was about to call Qing Nu and invite her to visit Yu Wood City, he received a phone call that made him frown.

[Lan Haitian]!

Seeing the caller ID on the screen, Chen Mobai was tempted to hang up directly.

But recalling the things he had said at Wangwu Cave Heaven and considering that Qing Nu was still a member of his Sky-Mending Group, he hesitated for a while and then picked up the call.

Lan Haitian: “I thought you wouldn’t answer.”

Chen Mobai: “What is it?”

Lan Haitian: “I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?”

Chen Mobai: “The good news.”

Hearing the good news first would at least provide a moment of good mood.

Lan Haitian: “I will be arriving in Yu Wood City soon. You should be very welcoming to me, right?”

Chen Mobai: “I don’t think that’s good news.”

Lan Haitian: “This time I’m leading a team on a mission, and among the team members is your ‘friend’. You will soon be able to see her. Isn’t that good news?”

Qing Nu!

“What do you mean by this?” Chen Mobai’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and his tone grew cold as he grasped the implication.

Lan Haitian: “It’s just that there has been decisive progress recently with the old case from years ago, and one of the key figures is linked to her. So we are bringing her along as well. Don’t misunderstand, it’s not that we specifically assigned her to a mission because of you.”

After hearing Lan Haitian’s explanation, Chen Mobai’s brow furrowed even more deeply.

That old case from years ago involved two Golden Core Masters from Red Sandstone City.

Chen Mobai: “What progress?”

Lan Haitian: “I can’t discuss it over the phone, and I can only tell you if you agree to get involved.”

Without saying anything further, Chen Mobai guessed what the bad news was and decided to simply hang up the phone.

At this moment, he was only relieved that he had sent Yan Bingxuan away earlier.

Chen Mobai pondered in his own courtyard.

The old case from years ago was related to Qing Nu, something Lan Haitian had mentioned to him at Wangwu Cave Heaven.

The worst-case scenario was that the Immortal Gate had identified Yu Tianguang, the True Person in crimson robes, as a suspect. The Sky-Mending Group’s collective deployment this time might well be planning to make an arrest.

So, how should he avoid getting involved in this matter?

While Chen Mobai was contemplating, his phone suddenly received an email.

“Dear Councilor Chen Mobai, the Sky-Mending Group of the Immortal Gate has a mission to execute in your jurisdiction in the coming days. We kindly ask for your assistance when it is convenient.”

The sender of the email was the Kaiyuan Hall Committee.
