I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2621 - 1196: Imperial Court Secret Realm_3
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Upon Shenxi's words, Chen Mobai's face lit up with excitement.
Yi Yuan Dao Palace lacks these treasures, since Yi Yuan True Monarch's lineage remains quite new, and neither Dao Morale Sect nor Nine Heavens Morality Sect shares this knowledge with us.
Should the Five Elements Sect acquire these supplements, they would gain direct insight into the Eastern Emperor Court that dominated the whole East Continent since ancient eras, sparing the need to ask Yuan Zhen about every puzzle.
"May our sect make a copy?"
Chen Mobai inquired politely, and Shenxi readily consented.
"Zongheng, handle this for us."
With approval granted, Chen Mobai instructed Jiang Zongheng and his three quiet followers, who grasped the intent at once and nodded in agreement.
"I shall leave the Six Dragons Talisman right here, collecting it once Nephew Jiang completes the transcription."
Shenxi displayed profound respect toward Chen Mobai by suspending the Sixth Rank Spirit Talisman mid-air, safeguarding Jiang Zongheng within this Imperial Court Secret Realm.
"Thanks, Dao Brother; let's enjoy some tea rather than linger for these young ones."
Chen Mobai's suggestion raised no suspicions in Shenxi or Da Kong. Once the three Great Deity Transformations departed, Da Kong employed a Void Secret Technique to swiftly return to Dao Morale Sect’s mountain gate.
"You two handle the transcription here; I'll take a walk around."
As the three Great Deity Transformations vanished from sight, Jiang Zongheng promptly directed Duan Shuyu and Jin Ling’er to begin, before venturing toward the spot where he detected the Small Dragon Capturing Tripod.
Before long, he reached a fabricated rock mountain inside the Secret Realm.
Jiang Zongheng circled it once, paused at a specific spot, and drew out his tripod, prompting the fake mountain to glow faintly with Spiritual Light.
Yet, without triggering the Secret Technique, the fake mountain showed no further response despite his efforts.
Undeterred, he toured the entire Secret Realm anew, noting every location where the Dragon Capturing Tripod responded, then rejoined Duan Shuyu at the attic to copy the jade slip together.
Dao Morale Sect Mountain Gate.
Chen Mobai shared Longevity Eyebrow tea with the East Continent Righteous Deity Transformations, pondering if this brew could offset the three hundred years of lifespan he forfeited by firing the Chaos Primal Energy Cannon at Ming Wang Star.
He pondered aiding Dao Morale Sect by refining a Fifth Rank Artifact or trading materials from the old Flood Dragon’s remains.
"Young friend, relax and enjoy. Though Longevity Eyebrow yields are scarce, as Dao Morale Sect's senior-most figure, I've hoarded plenty, precisely a full year's supply for you."
To Chen Mobai's surprise, Dustless True Monarch proved exceptionally generous, bestowing three hundred and sixty portions outright—sufficient for a year's consumption to restore three hundred and sixty years of life.
Chen Mobai had already savored over a dozen cups, reserving the remainder for Qing Nu.
"How could I possibly accept?"
Though Chen Mobai hesitated to incur debts, Dustless True Monarch discerned his thoughts and proposed an even trade for equivalent Enlightenment Tea.
Rank-4 Enlightenment Tea trails Rank-5 Longevity Eyebrow in quality, giving Chen Mobai the edge.
Dao Morale Sect, however, viewed it as no loss—in fact, a profit.
They possessed abundant Longevity Eyebrow stocks, after all.
With mutual satisfaction on both sides, host and guests reveled in harmony.
Post-tea, Da Kong True Monarch took his leave, keen to delve back into Puppetry Technique studies for crafting a Rank-5 Puppet to probe Dragon Abyss Cave's depths. As he departed, a thought struck him, prompting words to Chen Mobai: "Young friend, Pan Kong noted earlier that the ores you requested are prepared; he's en route from Central State, and I'll send him straight to you."
Joy surged in Chen Mobai at this news.
Another fortunate development.
Perfectly timed for Zhuo Ming’s Nascent Soul Formation, allowing the All-things Altruistic Cauldron's upgrade to Rank-5 concurrently.
One month on, after daily Longevity Eyebrow sessions at Dao Morale Sect, Chen Mobai got Jiang Zongheng's transmission and hurried back to Guangwu Immortal City with Shenxi.
Exiting Imperial City, Chen Mobai parted from Dao Morale Sect, escorting the Five Elements Sect delegation.
Shenxi urged him to linger longer before accompanying him personally to the Teleportation Array.
Upon returning to Five Elements Sect, Chen Mobai let Jiang Zongheng stay as the pair had matters to deliberate; Qing Nu promptly guided Jin Ling’er and the rest away.
"Master..." As Jiang Zongheng pulled out ink, paper, and inkstone, preparing to sketch the Secret Realm maps and notes stored deep in his mind, Chen Mobai lifted his hand to halt him.
"We’ll discuss in detail on site."
Jiang Zongheng was left baffled by Chen Mobai’s words.
