Chen Mobai met with Xing Ji of the Star Heaven Dao Sect, who sought his neutrality in the competition for the final Communicating Holy Spirit Pill against Earth Virtue, offering the Three Lights Divine Water and a contract for Myriad Acres of Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice in exchange. Agreeing to remain impartial, Chen Mobai accepted the gifts and later received a similar request from Earth Virtue, who presented three rare Rank-5 medicinal ingredients for the same fair contest. Departing Dongling Immortal City with his newfound treasures, Chen Mobai returned to the Eastern Wilderness without incident, then gathered the Five Elements Sect's Nascent Souls in Northern Abyss City to unveil the pill and Civet Power's corpse, lamenting the absence of a Divinity Transformation recipe.

"Once you advance to Divinity Transformation as a cultivator, Junior Brother, our sect will rise to Holy Land status. By then, do we keep the ’Five Elements’ name, or take on ’Yi Yuan’ from the East Land?"

Having honored the remains of the Civet Power, as Zhou Ye and the rest continued to laud the might and bravery of Chen Mobai’s Second Primeval Spirit, Zhou Shengqing had already shifted his thoughts forward and posed this query.

Zhou Shengqing had long wrestled with uncertainty on this matter.

To him, the Five Elements Sect name carried profound sentiments, yet switching it to Yi Yuan Dao Palace and joining a Holy Land would let him resolve the lifelong sorrow of the Primordial Ancestral Master.

Zhou Shengqing held immense reverence for that Master, the Primordial Ancestral Master. Though they grew distant later to clear a path for Zhou Ye, it was under the Primordial Ancestral Master’s tutelage that they reached their current heights in the Immortal Cultivation World.

Precisely since either choice worked well, Nascent Soul cultivators like Zhou Shengqing found themselves torn over this dilemma.

"We’ll keep the Five Elements; no point in altering what we’re used to."

Yet Chen Mobai showed no delay in deciding; he felt no attachment to the Yi Yuan Dao Palace.

Besides, should it shift to the Yi Yuan name, even after his ascension, his standing in the Tianhe Realm would likely remain overshadowed by the Yi Yuan True Monarch.

Chen Mobai refused to accept that; he aimed to stand as the founding Patriarch of a Holy Land sect!

The Yi Yuan orthodoxy tag served its purpose for now, but once the Five Elements Sect’s might swelled to fully absorb the entire Yi Yuan Dao Palace, that label could fade away.

"As Sect Leader Brother decrees, then!"

With Chen Mobai’s choice set, Zhou Shengqing let out a relieved breath.

Deep down, he favored preserving the Five Elements Sect too, since the Primordial Ancestral Master bore regrets, yet his followers did not.

Furthermore, Yi Yuan Dao Palace stood as a Holy Land, and once Chen Mobai reached Divinity Transformation, the Five Elements Sect would claim that title as well.

Those of Chen Mobai’s generation would hold rank matching the sect’s originator!

This realization filled everyone with greater joy, as they showered Chen Mobai with well-wishes for his breakthrough to Divinity Transformation.

"I’ll head back to the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion for seclusion, leaving the sect’s matters in your capable hands."

Chen Mobai stored the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, flashed a smile, and readied himself to activate Vault Teleportation straight to the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion.

"Sect Master, one additional issue may need your input."

Right then, Zhou Ye spoke up unexpectedly and passed Chen Mobai an invitation featuring a golden sheet adorned with assorted pearls.

"Dragon Palace!"

Spotting the inscription on the invitation, Chen Mobai’s face filled with bewilderment.

"The envoy from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court brought it. They landed from Golden Crow Immortal City and brought it to Bright Mirror Immortal City, addressing you directly. With you away, I held onto it."

After Zhou Ye’s clarification, Chen Mobai gave a small nod and unfolded the pearl-studded golden sheet that looked like an invitation. To his astonishment, though, it held a domineering True Strength of Rank-5.

That True Strength had probably been imprinted by a Rank-5 Flood Dragon from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court.

With that in mind, Chen Mobai’s curiosity deepened.

For, as Zhou Ye described, this invitation arrived before he’d disclosed his Second Primeval Spirit’s power publicly, so the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court viewed him merely as a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Did a personal summons from a Divinity Transformation Flood Dragon merit such effort?

While pondering this, as Chen Mobai intended to unleash his Second Primeval Spirit against the overpowering True Strength, the page abruptly unfolded on its own.

"Oh?"

Chen Mobai voiced his surprise involuntarily, yet moments later, the invitation’s message drew him in completely.

"Old fool, your ambitions are quite grand!"

Having finished reading, Chen Mobai gave a chilly huff and snapped shut the golden page he gripped.

"Junior Brother, is the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court stirring up issues?"

Zhou Shengqing inquired, his voice laced with subtle worry.

Major sects within the Eastern Earth Holy Land had to regard the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court with deference. This ancient force dated back to the Tianhe Realm’s inception, boasting bottomless power and legacy.

"The Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court discovered my possession of a Yellow Dragon—and a female one at that—so they seek to arrange a marriage."

Chen Mobai revealed the golden page’s message, his disdainful snort already marking the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court as a foe on his tally.

"I understand now!"

At those words, Zhou Shengqing and the others displayed expressions of sudden insight.

The Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court gained fame for scattering its lineage across the Four Seas. Learning of an Innate True Spirit such as the Yellow Dragon, their desire to wed her into the Dragon Palace seemed inevitable.

In truth, True Spirit bloodlines struggled greatly to produce heirs without diluting purity.

Should the mate’s lineage already prove potent, outcomes improved vastly with minimal strain.

"Sect Master, what’s our reply to this? The demonic beast messenger claimed it would linger in the waters beyond Golden Crow Immortal City..."

Zhou Ye brought up the next point, clutching a shell-shaped item from the demonic beast—akin to the Message Talismans humans employed, which activated via Spiritual Power infusion.

"Ignore it; we’ll put off any answer!"

Though Chen Mobai trusted deeply in his Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation’s defenses, certain that it could withstand an assault from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court, he preferred not to draw such an enemy prematurely.

Additionally, the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court had so far unveiled just two Rank-5 Flood Dragons.

Silence amounted to rejection.

Still, post-ascension to Divinity Transformation, a direct dismissal from him might even garner some regard from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court.

"Shall we consult the Yellow Dragon True Spirit’s view? Wedging her there could benefit her via the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court’s vast resources, and our Five Elements Sect might forge ties as kin..."
