I Have A Cultivation World

After all, he is a sword cultivator known for his aloof personality.

“Senior Brother, I have no choice. The former Sect Leader has closed himself off, and the Master is unwilling to find someone he is familiar with to negotiate with the Sect Leader. As his disciple, I am the one who has to worry about this.”

Yan Jinye said ruefully. With neither Chu Zuoshu nor Zeng Woyou willing to back down, she came to Chen Mobai for help under Lu Yi’s guidance from the Transmission Department, using the brewing process as an excuse.

“It’s a pity that Senior Brother Yue is still in Lei Nation as a substitute Town Guard. Otherwise, he would be the best candidate.”

Chen Mobai thought of Yue Zutao. As Chu Zuoshu’s direct disciple, even though his cultivation realm was locked in by the Tree Fruit, he had always been Chu Zuoshu’s closest disciple and most trusted aide.

“Have you tried reaching out to Senior Brother Sun from the Spirit Plant Department?”

Sun Gaochang was also Chu Zuoshu’s person, and Chen Mobai felt that he was more qualified for this task.

“Inspector Sun met me, but he hinted that it would be best if my Master took the initiative to apologize.”

Listening to this, Chen Mobai’s face revealed understanding. Sun Gaochang had clearly made his alliance apparent – he was on the new Sect Leader’s side.

“Minister Zeng gave me a hand before. I can try testing the waters at the Sect Leader’s place, but I will not make things difficult for him. You should be prepared for this.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Jinye nodded in understanding.

“I will also go back and persuade the Master again. Senior Brother, this is a small token of appreciation.”

Before she left, Yan Jinye handed him a jade box.

When Chen Mobai opened it, he saw three ripe Bamboo Fruits.

“Junior Sister is thoughtful, however, since the matter is not yet resolved, it would be inappropriate for me to accept such a reward. Consider these Bamboo Fruits as something I’ve purchased.”

Chen Mobai took out a thousand Spirit Stones from his storage bag, but Yan Jinye shook her head and did not accept them.

“Senior Brother, I initially wanted to give you some pills that enhance cultivation, but I just finished repaying my Master’s Spirit Stones this year. I also spent a lot on materials to practice new alchemy formulas, hence I traded all the pills I refined for Spirit Stones to pay off my debt. Next year, when I finish refining the batch of Beneficial Yuan Pills, I will thank you again.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai shook his head even faster. He wasn’t interested in these pills.

“Well, for now, I will accept it. By the way, Junior Sister, when Xuan became my disciple, the Luo family gave me a Camelweed. How can this Rank-3 medicinal herb be used most effectively?”

Although the Rank-3 medicinal herb was well preserved, Chen Mobai was worried that its efficacy would diminish over time.

He hadn’t had the time before, but now that he had completed the Foundation Establishment of the Immortality Scripture, he had time to deal with it.

“If it’s just one plant, you can grind it with some adjuvant herbs into a paste to strengthen certain parts of the body. I heard that some Senior Brothers from the Sword Training Department use it to enhance the flexibility and strength of their fingers. The Symbolization Department apparently has a recipe to make a very vivid red ink with this herb.”

At first, Chen Mobai had some inappropriate thoughts after hearing this, which made Luo Yixuan blush and lower her gaze.

“I see, it is mainly used for Body Forging.”

[It’s not much different from the Immortal Sect methods.]

The Immortal Sect’s Camelweed is known as the Ancient Duduo Lotus. Chen Mobai had asked Qing Nu about it before. It could be used to refine pills that improve stamina, vitality, and physical strength.

After Yan Jinye left, Chen Mobai finished the wine in his hand. Just as he was about to leave to visit the new Sect Leader, Chu Zuoshu, Luo Yixuan suddenly refilled his empty cup of wine.

“Master, judging from Uncle Yan’s words, to secure the Foundation Building Pill this time, it seems necessary to enter the top twenty of the real transmission,”

Luo Yixuan’s small face looked worried, and Chen Mobai naturally started to give advice without noticing his disciple’s concern.

“You have already reached the perfection of Qi Cultivation rank nine. As long as your experience in Magic Duel is sufficient, there’s no problem entering the top ten. Well, there are six years left. Whenever I’m free, you can come to the mountain, and I’ll teach you some techniques of the Magic Duel.”

“Thank you, master.”

Luo Yixuan immediately changed her worries into happiness. Her bright eyes were suddenly shining, just like a sunny day after rain.

“When you come up, bring Wen Bo and Zhuo Ming along. This way, I can teach the three of you at the same time.”

However, Chen Mobai’s following words greatly diminished Luo Yixuan’s joy.

After Chen Mobai, driving the Red Misty Cloud Silk, disappeared into the sky, Luo Yixuan, somewhat displeased, stomped her foot and raised the jug in her hand directly to her red lips, emptying it with a “gulp-gulp”.

After drinking, she wiped the wine stains at the corner of her mouth. Her white, chubby cheeks were flushed, but her eyes were crystal clear. Her mouth slightly pouted, as if reproaching herself for being too clever for her own good.

…

“Your family makes really good wine.”

In a side hall of Shenmu Hall, Chu Zuoshu, with a tired face, let out a long sigh of relief after finishing the clear wine Cheng Mobai brought.

“If Sect Leader wants to drink in the future, just give a heads up. I’ll have a disciple bring it.”

Chen Mobai felt as if his wine shop mirrored an Immortal Cultivation teashop. Due to the hybrid Spirit Rice varieties, each type of Spirit Rice Brew varied in taste depending on the weather and medicinal materials used. So, every time a new wine was introduced, it felt like opening a mysterious box.

Whenever he brought new wine to others, it was basically a new flavor. This novelty was appealing to those like Chu Zuoshu in the Eastern Wilderness, who were used to just a few tastes of mild yellow wine.

However, among Qi Cultivation disciples, the most popular was the classic one that enhanced Cultivation Level and Divine Sense.

“I see, I understand brother Zeng’s concern. Foundation Building Pill is one of the lifebloods of the sect, and it’s best to keep it in our own hands.”

After hearing the reason why Chen Mobai came to him, Chu Zuoshu sighed and voiced another reason, not the most honorable one.

“Being an Alchemist is the richest among the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal, and over the years, Back to Sky Valley has relied on alchemy and the cultivation of rank-3 Spirit Rice to accumulate spirit stones and wealth. If all these are used to enhance the overall power of Back to Sky Valley, even the biggest Five Elements Sect in the Eastern Wilderness may not necessarily surpass them.”

“Therefore, our Divine Wood Sect gives Foundation Building Pill and other elixirs to Back to Sky Valley to refine. Besides their high success rate, we also aim to impede Yan Shaoyin and others’ cultivation by involving them in alchemy.”

“This was actually the policy of the Five Elements Sect back then. At that time, the Hun Yuan Ancient Ancestor was there, so we forcefully allocated the task of refining the Foundation Building Pill to Back to Sky Valley, and made them guarantee six Pills per batch. If not, Back to Sky Valley would have to compensate. This was done to pressure Yan Shaoyin, the best alchemist in the Eastern Wilderness in the last two centuries, into alchemy himself, so that his potential for further advancement would be hindered.”

Chu Zuoshu didn’t treat Chen Mobai as an outsider, disclosing the real reason for letting Back to Sky Valley make the alchemy.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but admire the blatant law of survival of the fittest in the Immortal Cultivation world of the Tianhe Realm. It was impressive that Yan Shaoyin could put up with such conditions.

“In that case, why is Back to Sky Valley still willing to refine the Foundation Building Pills for our Divine Wood Sect?”

Chu Zuoshu gave a cold laugh and disclosed another secret.

“This was something Yan Shaoyin himself promised the Hun Yuan Ancient Ancestor. Although our Divine Wood Sect and Golden Cliff have separated from the Five Elements Sect, we still maintain a tacit understanding on suppressing other major factions in the Eastern Wilderness.”

“After the Ancient Ancestor’s demise, Yan Shaoyin wanted to tear up the treaty. Even joining forces with the Snow-blowing Palace, Liu Jia Mountain, Shake Mountain Peak, and even enlisted the support of the big business firm in Star Heaven. But, the five Core Formation real people of our Five Elements Sect fought them in five battles, with three wins and two losses.”

“However, since our Divine Wood Sect and Golden Cliff have separated from the Five Elements Sect, and we no longer have the support of the Nascent Soul Ancient Ancestor. It’s impossible to impose such stringent conditions on Yan Shaoyin anymore. So it turned into the current situation: the Foundation Building Pill is still refined by Back to Sky Valley, only guaranteeing at least five successful pills per batch.”
