I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2672 - 1227: I Resign

Master Peach Blossom secretly cursed, but he didn't dare to openly oppose Zhongli Tianyu, given his association with Pure Yang True Monarch.

Subsequently, the Deity Transformation Cultivators engaged in discussions regarding the term limits for the Three Great Hall Masters positions.

With Ye Yune stepping down, they used her tenure as a benchmark: approximately two cycles, equating to one hundred and twenty years.

"Isn't that a tad brief for Nascent Soul Cultivators?"

Qing Ping voiced his objection, pointing out that under this new arrangement, Gongye Zhixu would have little time remaining. While Lan Haitian was poised to succeed him, a significant portion of Lan Haitian's background stemmed from the Kunpeng lineage.

Amidst the differing opinions, Chen Mobai stepped forward to offer a definitive perspective:

"Let us establish the term limit at two cycles for now. For Nascent Soul Cultivators, the primary focus should be on progressing towards Deity Transformation; excessive involvement in mortal affairs offers little benefit."

"Furthermore, the Immortal Gate is currently witnessing a surge of Nascent Soul talents, necessitating increased opportunities for the younger generation."

"Should a future deficit in talent arise, we can implement special measures to appropriately extend these term limits."

Chen Mobai's words resonated, and nods of agreement spread through the assembly.

Indeed, the Immortal Gate was currently abundant with Nascent Soul experts.

A situation akin to Lin Daoming's era, where the three hall masters served for centuries without change, might ensure stability but could also stifle societal dynamism.

Now that the Immortal Gate had ventured into exploring external star systems, fostering a forward-thinking spirit among its populace remained crucial.

This would allow capable individuals the chance to rise.

With these significant decisions made, the next step involved informing the Nascent Soul cultivators.

For the most part, everyone found these new regulations acceptable.

The sole dissenter was Ye Yune.

Aware of her impending retirement, she promptly journeyed to the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains. Having diligently served as Qi Yuheng’s secretary for over two centuries, she had finally attained the position of Kaiyuan Hall Master. To have the rules altered mere decades later, rendering her position untenable, was something she struggled to accept.

Even with past grievances against Pure Yang True Monarch, there should have been a more substantiated reason for her dismissal.

She sought out Qi Yuheng, hoping he would advocate on her behalf.

However, upon arriving at Ambition Immortal Peak, Qi Yuheng informed her directly that the initiative had been his.

"Why!?"

Ye Yune's face went ashen, unable to comprehend why she was being forsaken.

As a long-standing subordinate, Qi Yuheng offered an explanation: "Do you recall the first words I imparted to you when you joined Kaiyuan Hall?"

Ye Yune searched her memory and nodded. "Politics is built on mutual compromise; to gain something, one must relinquish something else."

Yet, Ye Yune couldn't grasp why she was the one being sacrificed. She felt she hadn't gained anything substantial!

"If you step down, your father will be granted an opportunity for Deity Transformation. If you refuse to resign, I will arrange for Zhongli Tianyu to take your place, and upon his reaching the Ninth Layer of Nascent Soul, this Deity Transformation opportunity will rightfully belong to him."

Qi Yuheng laid out the complex situation plainly and awaited Ye Yune's decision.

Upon hearing his words, Ye Yune's expression darkened considerably, but eventually, she lowered her head in resignation and declared, "I resign."

Ye Yune was acutely aware of how exceptionally rare Deity Transformation opportunities were within the Immortal Gate.

By stepping down and enabling her father, Beiming Master, to access Deity Transformation resources, she understood that Qi Yuheng was extending a considerable favor.

"If Beiming can achieve Deity Transformation, then after my departure, he can devise a method to procure a Shock God Condensing Spirit Pill for you. Currently, only four have been allocated; among the remaining six, you may strive to obtain one."

Observing his former subordinate's dejected state, Qi Yuheng sighed and offered words of solace.

Indeed, after processing his statement, Ye Yune's demeanor brightened considerably, as if a revelation had dawned upon her.

Should her father successfully reach Deity Transformation, and subsequently Pure Yang True Monarch and Qi Yuheng depart, it wouldn't be overly difficult to reclaim her position among the Three Great Hall Masters.

"Thank you for your invaluable guidance, True Monarch!"

Descending the mountain with renewed optimism, Ye Yune immediately set about arranging her retirement affairs.

Her immediate goal was to elevate her husband's standing before her departure.

Concerning this, Qi Yuheng, informed of her intended sacrifice, offered no resistance, permitting her to negotiate benefits with the Kunpeng lineage.

At the close of the Kaiyuan Hall's annual conference, Jiang Yuyuan was officially appointed as the new head of the Arts Department.

In previous times, such an appointment would undoubtedly have sparked considerable debate.

However, the appointment of Yang Youyu (Yu Yi), a councilor of Kaiyuan Hall, as the Vice Hall Master drew everyone’s gaze, causing this significant matter to be nearly overlooked by those unaware.

Yu Yi, who typically abhorred such mundane affairs, was exceptionally energetic and radiant during his inaugural address. He was well aware that this position was merely a stepping stone towards acquiring the coveted Shock God Condensing Spirit Pill.

Upon officially assuming the role of Vice Hall Master of Kaiyuan Hall, Yu Yi’s inaugural proposal was to institute term limits for the Three Great Hall Masters.

This audacious proposal sent ripples of shock throughout the Kaiyuan Hall councilors, who couldn't fathom why she intended to dismantle the foundational structure of the Four Great Daoist Sects.

Predictably, the overwhelming majority of the councilors voiced their opposition, and the proposal failed to pass.

Yet, an astonishing turn of events unfolded as the Three Great Hall Masters unexpectedly joined forces, their unified agreement allowing them to forcibly push the proposal through.

Discerning individuals, understanding that no one acts without a reason, swiftly concluded that this move was orchestrated by the will of the Seven Deity Ancestors.

This revelation immediately infused the Golden Core Cultivators, who had previously been content with a more leisurely existence within the Three Great Halls, with a renewed sense of purpose and motivation.

Within this prevailing climate, any cultivator who managed to achieve Nascent Soul Formation would generally be presented with an opportunity to ascend to the esteemed position of one of the Three Great Hall Masters.

Furthermore, the Immortal Gate had just completed refining a fresh batch of Infant-Accumulating Elixirs and had commenced the process of selecting recipients for this valuable resource.

All Golden Core Cultivators who met the eligibility criteria were actively leveraging their connections, striving to secure a coveted pill.

Nevertheless, the final roster of recipients had been meticulously determined by the Deity Transformations of the Four Lineages long before this juncture.

Among the recipients, the Weapon Dancing Sect was granted three pills, designated for Ming Yuhua, Hua Zijing, and Meng Huang.

The remaining three lineages each received an allocation of two pills.

An additional pill was generously bestowed upon the Sea Territory as a form of compensation.

Following Ye Yune’s stepping down from his position, Qi Yuheng assumed command and allocated one of the Infant-Accumulating Elixirs to Jiang Yuyuan.

...

As night descended, Chen Mobai utilized his Void Teleportation ability to arrive at Meng Huang’s secluded villa atop Crimson Mountain. He began guiding her through the intricate preparations and various crucial aspects concerning Nascent Soul Formation.

In addition to the Infant-Accumulating Elixir, he also presented her with the specially curated Nascent Soul Gift Package he had personally prepared.

Meng Huang, being merely at the Golden Core Cultivation stage, found herself unable to adequately reciprocate his profound kindness. Consequently, she offered herself entirely, expressing her gratitude and unwavering devotion.

"Your foundation is still insufficient; a single attempt at Nascent Soul Formation will undoubtedly lead to failure. First, you must meticulously experience your deficiencies through trial and error. Once you are free from all doubt, then muster all your strength for the breakthrough," Chen Mobai advised.

Following this, Chen Mobai engaged in a detailed discussion with Meng Huang regarding the arrangements for her Nascent Soul Formation process, to which she listened with fervent agreement, nodding repeatedly.

Her designated Nascent Soul Spirit Land was located within the valley, which happened to be Chen Mobai’s former residence. This area was already imbued with Sixth Rank Spiritual Energy, complemented by a powerful formation array established by Chen Mobai himself, and further enhanced by the presence of Supreme Grade Spirit Stones. Regardless of the outcome of her ascension attempt within this protective environment, any disturbance would be completely contained.

Chen Mobai meticulously arranged three sets of Nascent Soul resources for Meng Huang. To bolster her confidence, he assured her that he would procure even more if she depleted these, emphasizing that she should not concern herself with any potential waste.

"You truly treat me exceptionally well!"

Upon hearing his generous promise, Meng Huang was overcome with emotion, tears welling in her eyes. She felt incredibly fortunate to have chosen this exceptional man years ago at the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Throughout the intervening years, despite the considerable sacrifices she had made, the rewards she had received were a thousandfold greater.

"You are my woman, and naturally, I will always treat you with the utmost care and affection," Chen Mobai reassured her, gently patting the profoundly moved and tearful Meng Huang within his embrace. She trembled with the intensity of her emotions.

...

After concluding his arrangements with Meng Huang, Chen Mobai then facilitated Ming Yuhua’s entry into the Yuping Small Realm.

As the future leader of the Weapon Dancing Sect, Ming Yuhua lived up to Chen Mobai’s expectations, achieving success with her very first Infant-Accumulating Elixir, without even needing to utilize the Nascent Soul resources Chen Mobai had prepared.

In a mere span of six months, she successfully consolidated her newfound realm and emerged triumphantly.

"These resources can be preserved for future successors of the Dao Academy," Ming Yuhua proposed cheerfully, returning the Nascent Soul resources Chen Mobai had provided her after her successful emergence from the Yuping Small Realm.

"Since it was given to you, it is now yours. Feel free to use it for any promising juniors in the future," Chen Mobai stated, gently refusing her offer. He maintained a consistent principle of never retracting what he bestowed.

Ming Yuhua, demonstrating her own magnanimity, graciously accepted his gift after hearing his words.

"How are Senior Sister Hua and Senior Sister Meng progressing?" Ming Yuhua inquired, her own success prompting her to inquire about Hua Zijing and Meng Huang. She recognized that as members of the same lineage, their collective success would elevate their sect to possess nine Nascent Soul Cultivators.

"I have made all necessary arrangements for them; however, their ultimate success will hinge on their individual destinies," Chen Mobai replied.

Having seen to it that Hua Zijing was settled on Wangxian Peak, Chen Mobai also bestowed upon her a Nascent Soul Resource Pack before concluding their discussion.

Not long after, Cheng Xuan arrived through teleportation, having heard the news. He let out a hearty laugh, visibly pleased by the abundant Pure Yang Qi that enveloped Ming Yuhua.

Word soon rippled throughout the Immortal Gate regarding Ming Yuhua's successful breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage; she was the very first among her peers to achieve this feat using the batch of Infant-Accumulating Elixirs.

"The Weapon Dancing Sect is truly flourishing, like a field of vibrant blossoms reaching their peak!" Master Peach Blossom, from within the Jumang Lineage, relayed the news to her own master, who couldn't help but utter a thoughtful observation.

"The full moon inevitably wanes, and brimming water overflows its vessel. Once the Pure Yang and we depart, a Weapon Dancing Sect lacking the guidance of a Deity Transformation cultivator might very well find its prosperity short-lived," Peach Blossom remarked.

"One can only hope that outcome unfolds. How fares the situation with the Three Extremes?" a disembodied face inquired from the gnarled bark of a peach tree.

"They are still striving for a breakthrough, though the prospects are not particularly bright," Peach Blossom replied, shaking her head with a hint of resignation.

Were the Three Extremes to successfully achieve Divinity Transformation, she would be able to depart with a clear conscience.

"I do hope he succeeds," the face on the peach tree said, before fading back into obscurity.

Shortly thereafter, Peach Blossom also took her leave from the island.

...

One day, as Chen Mobai was guiding Ming Yuhua in the intricate process of refining the Pure Yang Golden Lotus, a subtle shift in his expression occurred.

"Try it on your own for now, and come back if any questions arise," he instructed.

After seeing Ming Yuhua depart, Chen Mobai retrieved his personal communication device.

A notification window promptly materialized on the screen.

The image displayed depicted the portal, identified as Turtle Treasure.
