I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2319 - 1052:

Xianwu Hall held jurisdiction over all of these various departments.

Previously, Chen Mobai would have faced a mountain of bureaucratic obstacles to secure five-tier resources, even in his capacity as the Hall Master of the Orthodox Law Hall. It was highly likely that both Kaiyuan Hall and Xianwu Hall would have banded together to deny his request.

However, his standing had shifted completely.

“Rest assured, True Monarch. I will oversee this personally to ensure the paperwork is processed with the utmost speed,” Gongye Zhixu promised, agreeing to Chen Mobai’s demand without a hint of reluctance.

A mere fifteen minutes later, Chen Mobai held a document bearing the electronic seals of every major department within Xianwu Hall.

With this authorization in hand, Chen Mobai proceeded to claim a branch from the Vermillion Fruit Tree with full confidence.

Despite his new status as the Third Saint of the Immortal Sect, he chose to operate within the established regulations. The foundation of these rules had been difficult to build, and Chen Mobai had no intention of using his Cultivation or rank to recklessly tear them down.

Even though he was now recognized as a Fifth Rank Artifact Refiner within the Immortal Sect, this was actually his first attempt at crafting spirit garments.

Luckily, his mastery of the Law of the Five Tones allowed him to quickly absorb the necessary knowledge. After studying the relevant texts, he rapidly transformed into a specialist in the field.

A memory resurfaced in Chen Mobai’s mind while he was sorting through the materials.

Back when he had slain Bing Yun Master, he had retrieved an object resembling an ice jade bead—an egg containing a Cold Flame Ice Silkworm.

This particular silkworm was a spiritual entity born from the concentrated essence of glaciers that had lasted for thousands of years. The silk it produced was considered a peerless material for weaving high-grade spirit garments.

He had simply possessed so many treasures that this one had slipped his mind.

With a flicker of his will, the void parted, and the ice jade egg he had tucked away in a corner of his domain manifested before him.

He extended the formidable divine sense of a Spirit Transformation realm master into the egg. By applying "The Union of Differences" to analyze its nature, Chen Mobai swiftly uncovered the history of the Cold Flame Ice Silkworm.

Long ago, it had been a sacred object worshipped by those of the ice and snow path, holding a status comparable to a Divinity Transformation Patriarch of a Holy Land. However, it had been severely wounded during a massive conflict. After returning to its Sect, it perished and regressed into this egg form.

At the start, the high-ranking members of the ice and snow faction had placed great hope in it, using various ice-attribute spiritual treasures to nourish it in hopes of a rebirth.

Yet, as the millennia passed, the ice silkworm showed no signs of life.

Eventually, it was relegated to the depths of the Sect’s treasury and forgotten.

When the ice and snow lineage fractured, the treasury was split among the three branches, and this specific egg fell into the hands of the Ice Palace.

Bing Yun Master had continued to provide it with ice-attribute Spirit Stones, though she had little expectation of it ever hatching.

As Chen Mobai continued his analysis, the internal state of the Cold Flame Ice Silkworm became clear to him.

A kernel of pure life force was gathering inside. If it were supplied with enough ice-attribute energy, there was a genuine chance its spiritual nature would ignite, leading to an awakening.

Unfortunately, Chen Mobai’s own innate Pure Yang Qi was far too aggressive to nurture such a creature.

The task required the Ice Spirit Power of someone with an Ice Spirit Root, or perhaps an even more refined form of True Qi.

The faces of his daughter, Chen Xiaohei, and his close companion, Yan Bingxuan, crossed his mind.

He quickly dismissed the idea, however.

Both had only recently achieved Core Formation. Attempting to raise the ice silkworm now would only serve as a distraction and slow their Cultivation progress.

Ultimately, Yan Qiongzhi was the most logical choice.

Having just reached the Nascent Soul stage, her progress would likely plateau for a while, giving her the perfect opportunity to assist him in hatching the silkworm.

Chen Mobai, of course, intended to compensate her for the labor.

He revisited the contents of Bing Yun Master’s storage bag. While the spiritual medicines had been passed to Qing Nu, he had retained the other items.

Among them was the fifth rank Blue Luminous Ice Heart Jutsu. He had already used "The Union of Differences" to refine it and kept it close at hand.

The primary reason he hadn't given it to Qing Nu was that its attributes were a poor match for her. Furthermore, because the artifact could sense the Three Yin Dao Fruit, Chen Mobai planned to use it during future explorations of the Ice Heaven Three Veins.

Once the Three Yin Dao Fruit was in his possession, he would gift the Blue Luminous Ice Heart Jutsu to Yan Bingxuan.

Even though he was the Third Saint of the Immortal Sect, handing a fifth rank artifact to a confidante right now would appear far too indulgent.

It was convenient, then, that Bing Yun Master also possessed a fourth rank middle-grade flying sword and a jade pendant. Chen Mobai used his Precious Golden Light to refine them, making them appear as if he had forged them himself.

While granting a fourth rank artifact to a Core Formation cultivator like Yan Bingxuan was still quite generous, Chen Mobai could shield her from scrutiny, provided she didn't flaunt them.

Additionally, he had a fifth rank Ice Soul Cold Crystal. He intended for Yan Qiongzhi to refine this into her natal lifespan artifact.

Should Yan Qiongzhi struggle with the smelting process, Chen Mobai was prepared to assist her.

Still, it was generally considered superior for a cultivator to refine their own lifespan artifact.

Since Yan Qiongzhi was now a Nascent Soul cultivator of their Weapon Dancing Sect, Chen Mobai planned to provide her with Cultivation guidance using "The Union of Differences" while entrusting her with the Cold Flame Ice Silkworm.

This silkworm, formed from the core of ancient glaciers, was a vital tool for those practicing ice-attribute techniques within the ice and snow tradition.

From Chen Mobai's current perspective on his realm, the creature was essentially an ice-attribute Dao Fruit.

Expanding on this through the Law of the Five Tones, he realized he could use "The Union of Differences" to bridge the connection, allowing Yan Qiongzhi to internalize the Ice Snow Great Dao contained within the silkworm while she nurtured it.

It was also fortunate that he still possessed the Ice Heaven Technique he had seized from Bing Yun Master.

In theory, this technique could lead a practitioner all the way to the Spirit Transformation Stage, provided they could refine the Three Yin Dao Fruit.
