The Patching Heaven Seal on Qian Xing's forehead began to glow on its own. Chen Mobai's first Heaven and Sea Sword shed its stone shell, revealing a star-like sword embryo. He gifted this sword to Qian Xing, who refined it with the aid of the Seal. As more swords emerged, Chen Mobai distributed them to various cultivators, including Narcissus and Yuan Xu. When the swords proved too numerous, he decided to keep the rest, establishing a rule that only those who were a perfect match or recognized by the sword spirit could wield them. He identified suitable matches for Yan Bingxuan, Meng Huang, and others. Finally, Chen Mobai refined the last and largest sword, which emerged as a Sixth Rank Heaven and Sea Sword.

"Pure Yang, this sword is truly remarkable!"

Seeing Chen Mobai complete the last sword, Qian Xing was the first to fly over, his eyes shining as he gazed at the sword standing between the Heaven and Earth Sea Domain.

Although he himself had once refined a Rank-6 Star-Drawing Sword, that was purely by chance.

It happened during the most critical moment of the Immortal Gate’s life and death crisis, when Qian Xing, his spiritual intuition awakened, entered a mysterious realm, burning all of his past life’s essence as if divinely aided to achieve it.

Even if Qian Xing went through it ten more times, he might not succeed again.

But seeing Chen Mobai casually refining a Rank-6 sword today, one knew it was true skill, not luck.

"This sword draws upon the essence of the vast mountains and oceans, and fused with the sword intent of generations of Mountain and Sea Academy sword cultivators led by Hao Cao, giving birth to its sword spirit. Why not name it ’Mountain and Sea?’"

Chen Mobai flicked his fingers towards the sword suspended in the air before him, and immediately the sound of the sword resonated through the heavens.

"A good sword, a good name!"

The Immortal Gate crowd around praised aloud.

"Thank you, True Monarch, for naming it after the Academy, it will be the honor of every student of the Mountain and Sea Academy."

At this moment, a middle-aged man with graying temples flew out, bowing in thanks to Chen Mobai.

He was none other than the current principal of the Mountain and Sea Academy, Yan Feng.

"It’s you, long time no see."

Seeing Yan Feng, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but show a look of surprise, then smiled slightly.

Yan Feng was a high school classmate of his back then, and during the entrance exam, if he hadn’t lost to him and used up the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman, he might have been the top student of that year.

In those days, from Red Sandstone City’s high school seniors, aside from Chen Mobai, Qing Nu, and Yan Bingxuan, only Yan Feng reached Core Formation, and now his cultivation level was nearly catching up with the Yan family’s ancestor who created the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman.

Seeing a rare old acquaintance, Chen Mobai was genuinely pleased.

"I never expected the True Monarch to still remember me."

Yan Feng was a bit flattered hearing those words from Chen Mobai.

Though they had been on good terms in their youth, Chen Mobai was now at the Cultivating Void stage.

While they were reminiscing, the surrounding Immortal Gate crowd took note of Yan Feng, planning to assist the Mountain and Sea Academy whenever possible in the future.

"As the Mountain and Sea Academy is one of the top sword cultivation universities of the Immortal Gate, adhering to the ancient essence, guarding the Heaven and Sea Stone Sword for generations, now that I have refined it into a True Sword, it should rightly be kept by the Mountain and Sea Academy."

After chatting with Yan Feng, Chen Mobai suddenly addressed the crowd with these words.

Subsequently, in front of everyone, he sent his collected Rank-5 Heaven and Sea Sword and Rank-6 Mountain and Sea Sword into the most renowned Sword Tower of the Mountain and Sea Academy with a wave of his sleeve.

In his youth, he obtained the Purple Electric Sword in this Sword Tower, establishing his reputation as an unparalleled sword cultivation genius.

Later, he opened up wars and also gained the Sea-settling Sword.

These two swords couldn’t possibly be returned to the Sword Tower now, which had resulted in the so-called Sword Dao Holy Land lacking top-grade sword collections.

Today, the opportunity to repay this karma arrived just in time.

"Pure Yang, these swords are of such high grade, wouldn’t it be too difficult for the Mountain and Sea Academy to guard them all?"

Qian Xing voiced his concern upon seeing Chen Mobai’s actions.

After all, the Mountain and Sea Academy didn’t even have a Nascent Soul cultivator, and as principal, Yan Feng only possessed a Rank-3 sword. Forcing him to oversee five Rank-5 Heaven and Sea Swords and one Rank-6 Mountain and Sea Sword was indeed quite challenging for the Mountain and Sea Academy.

"Simply transfer some Nascent Soul cultivators here, and besides, White Stone Cave Haven borders the Sea Territory, so I imagine Narcissus will be attentive."

As soon as Chen Mobai said this, everyone looked towards Narcissus, who opened her mouth wide, pointing to herself: [Me?]

Given Narcissus’ lazy nature, she was not keen, but having just acquired a Heaven and Sea Sword, refusing was difficult.

"After Spiritual Venerable refines the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, he will probably come to select a suitable sword too..."

Seeing Narcissus’ unwilling expression, Chen Mobai spoke these words.

"Leave it to me, from now on my Divine Sense will cover this place constantly."

Without any further hesitation, Narcissus patted her chest, promising to dutifully guard it as if it were her own treasury.

"In this case, it works out perfectly, making the Mountain and Sea Academy’s specialized sword cultivation university even more specialized."

Hearing Chen Mobai’s arrangements, Qian Xing had no objections.

As to which Nascent Soul cultivator from the Immortal Gate would be dispatched to oversee the Sword Tower below Narcissus, none of the Divinity Transformation present inquired.

After all, among the Four Great Daoist Sects of the Immortal Gate, currently, the Weapon Dancing Sect had the most Nascent Soul cultivators, already in double digits.

And these swords were refined by Chen Mobai.

"The current Immortal Gate is no longer like it was in our days, where spiritual energy had to be saved frugally. Nascent Soul cultivators or even Core Formation sword cultivators, if interested, can come to the Sword Tower and try to commune with these swords. If recognized by the sword spirit, they may take it away immediately."

"Just like when I took the Purple Electric Sword."

"My current achievements in the Sword Dao have been greatly helped by Purple Electric in the beginning, and of course, now the Purple Electric Sword too has become extraordinary, also a Rank-6 sword."

When Chen Mobai announced the openness of the Sword Tower’s swords to the entire Immortal Gate, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Although they all had Divinity Transformation, represented by their factions, there were still many Nascent Soul cultivators.

As for Chen Mobai’s self-praising remarks that followed, everyone outright ignored them.

Only a few sighed at the Purple Electric Sword’s discerning eyes back then, choosing a mere Foundation Establishment like Chen Mobai among many cultivators.
