I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2684 - 1234: The Name of the Earth Mother
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
After a period of time spent in the void of Fushang Star, Chen Mobai vanished. Once he ascertained that no one was actively searching for him, he left behind a Formless Puppet and made his way to the Tianhe Realm via teleportation.
...
Within the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion.
Chen Mobai's eyes snapped open, and he surveyed the familiar surroundings of the Cultivation Room. Activating his Divine Sense, he swiftly detected several familiar auras.
His focus quickly landed on Qing Nu's location, where he observed a colossal quantity of Water Spirit Qi flowing persistently towards her.
Chen Mobai watched for a moment before a smile touched his lips.
This indicated that Qing Nu was on the verge of a major breakthrough in her realm.
It appeared his return coincided perfectly with this pivotal moment.
With this thought, Chen Mobai immediately emerged from his seclusion. He arrived before the hall where Qing Nu was undergoing her closed-door cultivation, meticulously concealing his aura to avoid any disruption.
However, stationed before the hall was a young girl, her skin fair and her hair a cascade of ink black. She stood guard, gripping a sword. The instant Chen Mobai drew near, she noticed him. His appearance brought a shift in her expression, transforming from stern concentration to pure delight, and she prepared to offer a formal greeting.
Chen Mobai quickly signaled for her to dispense with excessive formality.
This girl was Jin Ling'er, Qing Nu's own disciple. After so many years, she had already achieved Core Formation. Truly, with her Golden Spirit Body and Heavenly Spiritual Root, her cultivation progress was second only to Chen Mobai in the annals of the Five Elements Sect.
Chen Mobai casually erected a soundproofing barrier before beckoning Jin Ling'er closer, eager to learn about the recent conditions within the Five Elements Sect.
"Reporting to Master, all is well within the sect," Jin Ling'er stated.
"However, several years ago, Acting Sect Leader Brother E Yun and Brother Zhou Wangshen, both from the Five Elements Sect in the Dongling Domain, met with failure in their Nascent Soul Formation attempts. Fortunately, thanks to the Three Lights Divine Water, no catastrophic consequences ensued."
"On the Eastern Barbarian front, Uncle-Master Chen Lingming and Uncle-Master Sheng Zhaoxi spearheaded the sect's Artifact Refining Department, successfully restoring twelve Rank-4 Treasure Ships. One additional Rank-5 ship exists, though its Power Furnace remains problematic, an issue they are diligently working to resolve."
"Furthermore, Uncle-Master Zhou Ye, also in the East Barbarian region, attempted to reach the Nascent Soul Middle Stage but did not succeed. Only my Master and I are privy to this event, as Uncle-Master Zhou Ye secretly dispatched Uncle-Master Green Pearl to request elixirs after his setback. My Master specifically concocted a batch of elixirs in Wanhua Immortal City to address his condition."
Jin Ling'er's voice flowed, melodious and clear, as pure as the striking of jewels—a fitting testament to the 'Lingduo Immortal Sound, Jade Bell Sound' moniker bestowed by Qing Nu.
"It is indeed regrettable that E Yun and Zhou Wangshen failed their Nascent Soul Formation," Chen Mobai mused.
He had held the expectation that, with his guidance and a complete set of Nascent Soul Formation resources, at least one of them would achieve success.
It now appeared that innate talent was as crucial as acquiring the necessary resources.
While E Yun and Zhou Wangshen were recognized as prodigies within the Eastern Wilderness, their abilities barely surpassed average when compared across the entirety of the East Continent.
Had they not benefited from the opportune era of the Five Elements Sect, their cultivation might have plateaued at Core Formation at best.
Subsequently, Chen Mobai turned his inquiries toward the state of the Xiao Nanshan lineage.
This time, the tidings were decidedly positive.
The eldest disciple, Liu Wenbo, after refining the Wood Spiritual Talisman, had continued his dedicated cultivation in accordance with Chen Mobai's instructions. Ten years prior, with the aid of a Barrier-breaking Elixir meticulously prepared by Qing Nu, he had successfully advanced to the Core Formation Late Stage.
This pace, while commendably fast, naturally placed him at the lower end among Chen Mobai's disciples. Nevertheless, Liu Wenbo remained content, having long accepted his position as the least naturally gifted, acknowledging that comparison with his fellow disciples was simply unrealistic.
Following Zhuo Ming's successful Nascent Soul Formation, his responsibilities burgeoned. Beyond overseeing the intricate arrangements of the Celestial Stars Earth Luo Star Formation, he also managed the sea-barricading and land reclamation efforts in the East Barbarians, spearheaded reforms in the Spirit Fields, and frequently journeyed into the Ruins to address complications with large-scale Teleportation Arrays. He even provided guidance on land development within the Ruins, directing the Five Elements Sect and its allied forces in cultivating a variety of suitable Spirit Plants, Spirit Rice, and other essential crops.
Despite the sheer volume of his duties, the various enterprises under Zhuo Ming's supervision had flourished remarkably over the intervening years.
Notably, his sea-blocking initiatives, undertaken in collaboration with Chen Lingming and Sheng Zhaoxi, culminated in the creation of a Rank-4 Earth Element city wall Magic Artifact. This artifact possessed the remarkable ability to extend, expand, and even move across the sea, effectively reclaiming nearly the entire Eastern Yi coastline that had once been submerged by an ancient Flood Dragon.
"This particular Magic Artifact is known among the Eastern Yi cultivators as the 'Earth Mother's Long Dike'! It is widely regarded as the most significant Magic Artifact on the entire East Continent!" As Jin Ling'er uttered these words, she produced a treasured model, a memento gifted to her by Zhuo Ming during his visit to the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion to see Qing Nu. The model vividly depicted the Mysterious Sea being contained by a colossal dike, stretching for thousands of miles, effectively preventing violent waves from ever again inundating the Eastern Yi coastline. Upon examining the model, Chen Mobai offered a nod of approval. His disciples, who once depended on his constant tutelage, had now blossomed into self-reliant individuals. He mused that even if he were to personally oversee such a project, he could not have achieved superior results to what Zhuo Ming had accomplished. "Across the East Continent, the major powers proclaim this achievement as a shining example of the harmony between an excellent teacher and his brilliant students!" Sensing Chen Mobai's contemplative mood, Jin Ling'er hastened to offer her praise. Presently, setting aside the Yi Yuan Dao Palace and unique figures like the Little Yellow Dragon Girl and Tai Sui Child, the Five Elements Sect boasted a formidable nine Nascent Souls. Among these nine Nascent Souls, Zhuo Ming, alongside Qing Nu, was the most celebrated, possessing a formidable reputation that echoed throughout the Five Continents and Four Seas. Ever since Zhuo Ming's successful Nascent Soul Formation, Chen Mobai had entirely relinquished direct oversight. While diligently managing the myriad responsibilities of the Five Elements Sect, she had astounded many with her prowess as a Fifth Rank Formation Master, a Fifth Rank Earth Master, and a Fifth Rank Spirit Plant Master, demonstrating talents and capabilities that even garnered the attention of several Divinity Transformation cultivators present in the East Continent.
