I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2685 - 1234: The Name of the Earth Mother (Part 2)

Such remarkable talent blooming in the humble Eastern Wilderness is truly astonishing.

Yet, Zhuo Ming's profound renown throughout the Five Continents and Four Seas primarily traces back to an extraordinary event seven years prior.

The Longevity Eyebrow Tea Tree, a venerable Five-tier spiritual plant of the Dao Morale Sect, inexplicably ceased its budding process. Despite the dedicated efforts of two Spirit Transformation cultivators, Dustless and Shenxi, employing numerous secret techniques of the sect, no remedy emerged.

In response, the Dao Morale Sect promulgated a Talent Seeking Order, extending its reach to all Spirit Plant Masters across the Five Continents and Four Seas. The sect pledged that any terms would be open for negotiation to anyone capable of resolving the predicament with the Longevity Eyebrow Tea Tree.

Initially, Spirit Plant Masters from the East Continent were the first to arrive, with nearly all of the most celebrated among them journeying to the sect.

However, their collective efforts proved fruitless.

Subsequently, the premier Spirit Plant Masters from the entirety of the Five Continents and Four Seas were personally escorted by the Taixu MiaoMiao Palace to the imposing mountain gates of the Dao Morale Sect. Within this group were even two cultivators of the Spirit Transformation Stage.

Following a series of restorative treatments, the Longevity Eyebrow did indeed resume its budding. Nevertheless, after a single cycle, several branches began to wither, prompting Shenxi and Dustless to immediately suspend all remedial actions in alarm.

Thus, the critical issue concerning the Longevity Eyebrow remained unresolved.

A state of indecision prevailed, as neither intervention nor inaction appeared to be the correct course.

While Shenxi and Dustless were consumed by their distress, Qi Jiannu recalled her associate Qing Nu, who was also recognized as a Fifth Rank Spirit Plant Master. However, the Dao Morale Sect was ill-equipped to offer Qing Nu anything she required. At that juncture, sensing an imminent breakthrough in her cultivation, she merely cast a cursory glance at the Dao Morale Sect’s Talent Seeking Order.

Out of deference to Qi Jiannu, Qing Nu felt compelled to offer some assistance, especially since she had successfully refined several valuable elixirs, made possible by the rare materials acquired from the Dao Assortment Sect Grass Hall.

Through more than two centuries of persistent cultivation by Zhuo Ming, the Five Elements Sect had amassed the most extensive medicine field in the East Continent. However, a significant ninety percent of these medicinal herbs comprised low-grade supplementary ingredients.

As for the herbs of the highest caliber, they had only just begun to sprout. Even with the assistance of the Yi Wood Divine Thunder and the Water of Ten Thousand Transformations, it would necessitate at least several centuries, or perhaps even a millennium, to achieve a harvestable state.

For premium herbs of Rank-4 and above, the Dao Morale Sect stood unchallenged as the foremost entity in the Eastern Continent. This formidable agricultural prowess formed the bedrock of the Ancient Sacred Land. Consequently, Qing Nu found it imperative to procure a substantial quantity of these top-tier herbs from the Dao Morale Sect’s Grass Hall for her advanced elixir refinement endeavors.

In this crucial matter, Qi Jiannu, the revered Saintess of the Dao Morale Sect, had proven to be an invaluable aid.

While one might assume that Chen Mobai, a cultivator of the Spirit Transformation Stage, would possess ample influence, the reality was that without the cooperation of the lower-ranking personnel, Chen Mobai could not continuously rely on his standing to address minor issues, nor could he afford to constantly seek assistance from Shenxi or Dustless.

Therefore, Qing Nu made the prudent decision to bring Zhuo Ming along on their journey to the East Land.

Her reasoning for bringing Zhuo Ming was rooted in her acknowledgment that she was not as adept in the intricate art of Spirit Plant mastery as he was.

Although Qing Nu harbored considerable confidence in the knowledge she had acquired from the Immortal Gate, considering the impotence of the foremost Spirit Plant Masters across the Five Continents and Four Seas, she wisely refrained from overestimating her own abilities and prudently chose to bring Zhuo Ming.

As events unfolded, her decision proved to be exceptionally astute.

This is because, ultimately, it was Zhuo Ming who successfully extricated the Longevity Eyebrow from its plight.

It transpired that this Five-tier Tea Tree was precariously positioned on the cusp of a significant advancement.

To ascend from Rank-5 to Rank-6, it necessitated the accumulation of immense spiritual energy. Thus, the Longevity Eyebrow had instinctively ceased its budding, channeling all its vital energy towards its core in a determined effort to achieve this breakthrough.

One of the Spirit Plant Masters, operating at the Spirit Transformation Stage, had forcefully induced budding through a secret technique. This action inadvertently dispersed the very energy essential for the plant's advancement, leading to the subsequent withering of its branches.

The core principle of a Spirit Plant's advancement hinges solely on the success of its primary trunk.

The peripheral branches possess the capacity for regrowth.

By employing the profound technique of All Things Spiritual Communication, Zhuo Ming established a connection with the Longevity Eyebrow, thereby gaining a comprehensive understanding of these underlying principles.

Initially, Dustless and Shenxi harbored skepticism. The Longevity Eyebrow had been discovered by the sect's revered patriarch, Dao Morale True Monarch, during an exploration of spirit veins utilizing the Xuanji Instrument, and it had been a Five-tier plant from its inception.

For countless millennia, it had displayed no indications whatsoever of advancing.

Certain esteemed elders within the sect had even posited that the ultimate potential of the Longevity Eyebrow Immortal Tea was strictly limited to Rank-5.

Zhuo Ming's revelation appeared to be a direct refutation of the Dao Morale Sect elders' conclusions.

Standing resolutely beside Zhuo Ming was Li Yaoshi, a Spirit Transformation cultivator hailing from the Medicine King Sect of the Southern State. He corroborated Zhuo Ming's assessment and voiced his agreement with the findings.

Conversely, a Spirit Transformation cultivator hailing from the Central State's Holy Land, Qiankun Cave Heaven, held a dissenting opinion, dismissing Zhuo Ming’s assertion as baseless.

Amidst this disagreement, the gravitas of the situation fell upon Dustless and Shenxi, given that the Longevity Eyebrow belonged to the Dao Morale Sect.

Should the Longevity Eyebrow truly be advancing, it would mark an unparalleled achievement for the Dao Morale Sect.

This is because, within this very realm, a Rank-6 entity would typically ascend and depart.

However, with Spirit Plants, there exists a possibility for them to remain if nurtured correctly.

Indeed, the Tianhe Realm is home to Rank-6 Spirit Plants; for instance, in the Southern State's Du Guang Field, a descendant of the Phoenix True Spirit presides over a Rank-6 Parasol Tree.

If the Dao Morale Sect were to possess a Rank-6 Longevity Eyebrow, their foundational strength would be significantly bolstered, potentially elevating them to the status of the foremost sacred ground in the Tianhe Realm, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with entities like the Qianqiu Pen and Ink Forest.

Motivated by this prospect, Dustless took the difficult step of employing an Ascension Talisman, a relic left by an ascended patriarch, to establish contact with the Upper Realm.

Following a discussion with patriarchs in the Upper Realm, Dustless True Monarch promptly utilized the cross-continental Teleportation Array from Taixu MiaoMiao Palace. Accompanied by Li Yaoshi, they journeyed to the Southern State to extend an invitation to Feng Qingshu from the Du Guang Field.

Feng Qingshu is recognized as one of the premier Spirit Transformation cultivators in the Tianhe Realm, perpetually on the cusp of achieving the Cultivating Void Level.

Dustless True Monarch's ability to secure Feng Qingshu's presence was solely due to a token provided by an ascended patriarch from the Upper Realm. This token successfully appeased the Phoenix clan immortal of the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm, though the price for such persuasion was, naturally, substantial.

Upon Feng Qingshu's arrival, her assessment mirrored Zhuo Ming's conclusion.

This outcome left the Spirit Transformation cultivator from Qiankun Cave Heaven visibly displeased.

Given the considerable expenditure by the Dao Morale Sect's ascended patriarch, the arrangement extended beyond mere diagnosis; they also procured a portion of the highly coveted Phoenix Saliva Spirit Liquid from the Du Guang Field.

According to legend, a single drop of Phoenix Saliva Spirit Liquid bestowed upon a Spirit Plant immense vitality and energy, enabling it to rapidly absorb ambient spiritual energy and adapt for ascension to its highest grade.

Miraculously, after the application of the Phoenix Saliva Spirit Liquid, the Longevity Eyebrow began to emanate a brilliant Spiritual Light and immediately absorbed thirty percent of the Dao Morale Sect's Rank-6 Water Pulse Spirit Qi.

The culmination of tens of thousands of years of accumulation in the Weak Water Pond by the Dao Morale Sect was nearly depleted as a consequence.

Nevertheless, the results brought immense joy to Dustless and Shenxi.

Under Feng Qingshu's guidance, the Longevity Eyebrow gradually assimilated the Phoenix Saliva Spirit Liquid. Concurrently, the Dao Morale Sect channeled vast quantities of Supreme Grade Spirit Stones from their reserves to sustain it. Five years later, the Longevity Eyebrow successfully achieved its advancement.

"Did the Longevity Eyebrow ascend?" This was Chen Mobai’s immediate query upon hearing Jin Ling’er’s account.

"It did not ascend with Ascension Radiance. Based on the Master’s hypothesis, Clan Leader Feng Qingshu must have employed a secret technique to prevent the Longevity Eyebrow’s ascension."

"The Master returned to the Eastern Wilderness prior to Clan Leader Feng Qingshu's arrival, citing his cultivation breakthrough as the reason. After providing the diagnosis, Senior Sister Zhuo accompanied the Master back due to pressing matters."

"Nonetheless, two years ago, the Dao Morale Sect's mountain gate indeed withstood an unprecedented heavenly tribulation. Following this event, word of the Longevity Eyebrow's advancement circulated from the Impermanence Pavilion."

"The Dao Morale Sect did not attempt to conceal this development; even Uncle Master Qi Jiannu paid a personal visit to express his gratitude to the Master and Senior Sister Zhuo."

"At the time, however, the Master was in closed-door cultivation, so I was the one who received them."

"Since then, Senior Sister Zhuo has been formally inducted into the Impermanence Pavilion, bestowed with the title 'Earth Mother.' She is recognized as the foremost Spirit Plant Master of the Eastern Continent and the paramount Earth Master across the Five Continents and Four Seas!"

Jin Ling’er's tone carried a distinct note of pride.

Zhuo Ming had resided in the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion for a period, and it was primarily Zhuo Ming who mentored Jin Ling’er upon her arrival. Their bond is exceptionally strong.

Chen Mobai listened, a clear sense of satisfaction evident on his face.
