I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2515 - 1129: Ku Zhu’s Return

That day, while assisting Qing Nu in pill refining, Chen Mobai abruptly got a message from Zhou Ye.

The report indicated that the long-vanished cultivators from Kong Sang Valley had finally made their way back.

At their forefront stood Ku Zhu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, accompanied by the core disciples of Kong Sang Valley who were captured amid the massive clash between righteousness and evil.

Following the great war, to stop opportunists from seizing Kong Sang Valley’s territory, Chen Mobai had placed it under temporary oversight by the Five Elements Sect.

Lacking a Fifth Rank Pure Bamboo or equivalent spiritual item to anchor it, the core Fifth Rank Spirit Vein kept leaking spiritual energy. After a personal examination on location, Chen Mobai employed his Earth Master techniques to seal it, halting any drop in its quality, and he left behind an inscription.

As a result, Ku Zhu wasted no time after their return and dispatched an envoy to reach out to the Five Elements Sect.

Zhou Ye oversaw the Eastern Yi affairs, and after conferring with the Kong Sang Valley group to grasp their requests, he relayed everything to Chen Mobai.

"It seems Ku Zhu is someone blessed with destiny,"

Chen Mobai remarked to Qing Nu once he absorbed the full account.

"With the Kong Sang Valley folks back, do we hand over their territory?"

Qing Nu posed the query.

Per the regional customs, if someone departs and others claim the spiritual vein in their absence, rights to it become shared.

In those scenarios, folks usually resort to the standard practice.

The side with greater power claims the prize.

Chen Mobai’s restriction had sealed Kong Sang Valley’s Fifth Rank core spirit vein, yet the expansive lands beyond it couldn’t sit idle and were quickly turned into productive areas by the Five Elements Sect.

A large area had transformed into herbal gardens and spirit farms, brimming with diverse herbs and Spirit Rice.

Regarding the sect’s herbal supplies, Qing Nu’s Danxia Pavilion owned a portion.

That’s why she paid close attention to this issue.

"It hinges on whether Ku Zhu desires it."

Chen Mobai responded with a grin.

In Zhou Ye’s update, Ku Zhu expressed a wish to journey to the East Continent, pay respects to the Sect Master, and thank him for safeguarding Kong Sang Valley’s spirit vein.

The initial contact was Chen Mobai’s old friend Ming Wen, who lingered in Northern Abyss City, set to guide Ku Zhu the moment word arrived.

Evidently, despite his fresh return, Ku Zhu had already learned the East Continent’s latest developments, knowing Chen Mobai had reached Divinity Transformation and dominated the Three Regions of the Eastern Continent Frontier like the heavens themselves.

"Head to Northern Abyss City and convey that after my wife and I wrap up this pill batch, I’ll carve out time to see Daoist Ku Zhu," Chen Mobai instructed Gu Yan at his side, who gave a soft nod and departed to handle it.

"The flame must be intensified,"

Qing Nu prompted, her fingers never stopping as she added heaps of prepared ingredients to the Primordial Yang Cauldron, and Chen Mobai agreed, lightly waving the Douluo Eight Scenic Lantern he held, sparking the violet-green Stat Fire to aid the process.

Right now, the pair was crafting the Lifeblood Refining Pill.

This recipe, drawn from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree Dao Fruit, featured straightforward components and spanned from Rank-1 up to Rank-6 in refinement.

Qing Nu had earlier mastered the Rank-1 through Rank-3 versions, mostly to hone her skills and get comfortable with the formula.

This current round targeted Rank-4.

Should it succeed, Zhuo Ming could smoothly leverage it to advance his Ninefold Law Body.

Furthermore, given the rarity of the ingredients, the Five Elements Sect had spent years amassing enough for this single attempt, so Qing Nu treated it with utmost care and called on Chen Mobai for fire assistance.

Their joint effort matched the prowess of Dustless True Monarch, the East Continent’s premier alchemist.

This set of Fourth Rank Lifeblood Refining Pills wrapped up without a hitch, yielding ten flawless ones.

Once she shaped the pills to her liking, Qing Nu carried them off to Xiao Nanshan, planning to deliver them to Zhuo Ming.

Meanwhile, Chen Mobai instantly shifted to Northern Abyss City via teleportation.

...

Ming Wen trailed Gu Yan up North Abyss Mountain with a demeanor full of deference. Over the years since she’d left the East Continent, property values here had skyrocketed to absurd levels, especially the peak structure, home to the Five Elements Sect’s Divinity Transformation Sect Master, the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor.

Recalling the era when she and this young man both achieved Core Formation, and how in just over a century he soared to Divinity Transformation, ranking among this world’s elite cultivators, Ming Wen felt like she’d traversed an entirely different existence.

For those on the path of cultivation, a hundred years passes as neither fleeting nor eternal.

Yet the hundred years she’d known felt like earth-shattering upheavals.

Kong Sang Valley, nestled in the Eastern Yi Territory, endured multiple fierce battles, eventually crumbling and driving them to remote exile. Now scarcely home, the transformations across the East Continent far exceeded her wildest expectations.

She’d believed the East Wu, Eastern Wilderness, and Eastern Yi regions of the Frontier could never unite.

But beneath the influence of the young figure atop this mountain, unification happened with seeming ease.

"We’ve reached our destination."

Gu Yan’s soft tone broke in just then, and Ming Wen lifted her gaze to behold a verdant courtyard, where a youth of ethereal poise and elegant looks greeted her with a smile.

"It’s been ages."

With his advancing cultivation, fewer and fewer faces from Chen Mobai’s past remained familiar, so every encounter with a known ally brought him immense delight.

"Greetings to the True Monarch!"

Ming Wen bowed deeply with profound reverence, a sight that drew a quiet sigh from Chen Mobai.
