Chapter 1649: Chapter 815: Mini Coiled Peach Fruit, 4th Rank Jade Zhang (Extra for 1000 Monthly Votes)
Pei Qingshuang originally planned to invite Chen Mobai to a al today to express her gratitude and perhaps check on the Qing Shuang Sword, thinking that now that Chen Mobai had achieved Nascent Soul Formation, he might return the sword to her.
Who would have thought that before she could even speak, she was completely stunned by Chen Mobai’s initial demonstration of Tuśita Fire.
What followed was an intricate series of moves from Chen Mobai, which left Pei Qingshuang feeling as though she’d been granted enormous benefits, filling her heart with guilt.
She thought that things couldn’t continue like this.
As a result, upon parting ways, Pei Qingshuang decided to reveal an extrely confidential piece of information.
“Honorable master, if my mother achieves Divinity Transformation, she can condense a Mini Coiled Peach Fruit.”
Just as Chen Mobai was about to use Void Walk to leave, he heard these words and was sowhat confused.
This Mini Coiled Peach Fruit—what does it have to do with him?
What effects would it have if consud?
How does it compare to the Large Chinese Toon Fruit?
However, asking such questions outright might make him seem overly self-serving, so Chen Mobai simply looked puzzled and signaled Pei Qingshuang to continue speaking.
“Consuming a Mini Coiled Peach Fruit allows cultivators to maintain good health, free from disease and afflictions. Furthermore, like the Appearance-fixing Pearl, it grants immortality. But surely such things don’t matter to soone like you, Honorable Master.”
Pei Qingshuang, reading his expression correctly, quickly offered an explanation.
“What else?”
Chen Mobai knew that if the Mini Coiled Peach Fruit only provided these effects, Pei Qingshuang wouldn’t have deliberately brought it up.
“If consud by a Nascent Soul Cultivator, it can enhance cultivation level by 150 years and extend lifespan by 150 years.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s eyes imdiately lit up.
The lifespan extension of 150 years wasn’t particularly significant to him.
Having entered Nascent Soul Formation, his lifespan had already surpassed a millennium. At his current age of 90, he felt confident that the rate of his breakthroughs would outpace the passage of ti.
But 150 years of cultivation level was an entirely different matter.
Using inner observation and his progress in cultivating the Pure Yang Scroll’s Nascent Soul chapter, Chen Mobai estimated that achieving Nascent Soul Completion under the resources of a fifth-order lower-grade Spirit Vein would take him 342 years.
A cultivation boost of 150 years could nearly halve that ti.
“It seems the Mini Coiled Peach Fruit might be even more valuable than the Large Chinese Toon Fruit.”
Chen Mobai couldn’t help but exclaim.
The Large Chinese Toon Fruit only extends lifespan, which, for him, doesn’t offer much value.
“The fruit condensed by the Great Chun Divine Tree is only fifth rank. If it needs to condense a sixth-rank fruit, it might drain the Spirit Veins of half of Di Yuan Star dry. The Immortal Gate would never allow such a thing.”
At this mont, Pei Qingshuang revealed the hidden truths.
“Is that so?”
After hearing this, Chen Mobai suddenly understood.
He had been puzzled about why a fruit condensed by a sixth-rank Divine Tree would have effects comparable to the fifth-rank Longevity Eyebrow tea from Dao Morale Sect in the Tianhe Realm. As it turns out, it was rely fifth rank after all.
This made clear the shocking resource scarcity within the Immortal Gate.
Even a sixth-rank Spirit Plant couldn’t condense a higher-grade fruit and had to suppress itself to produce fifth-grade ones.
“I wonder how many years a sixth-rank Large Chinese Toon Fruit would extend one’s lifespan?”
Chen Mobai couldn’t resist his curiosity and asked aloud.
“Eight thousand years!”
Pei Qingshuang hesitated briefly before revealing a figure that made Chen Mobai sharply inhale.
“That much?!”
“A sixth-rank Large Chinese Toon Fruit is ant for cultivators of Lasting Spring Cultivation attempting Divinity Transformation. If it didn’t offer such effects, why would Changchun Ancestor expend so much effort to plant it near the Furnace of Life and nurture its growth?”
Pei Qingshuang had completely divulged the most confidential secrets of Jumang Academy to Chen Mobai today, even ntioning the Furnace of Life.
Years ago, Yan Xinji discovered this and set his sights on the Fetal Transformation Essence within.
Out of caution, Chen Mobai decided not to ask Pei Qingshuang further about the Fetal Transformation Essence.
“I wonder what stage Peach Blossom Sage is at now? When can she achieve Divinity Transformation?”
As a staunch mber of the Sect of Realms, Chen Mobai understood the importance of Mini Coiled Peach Fruits. Knowing they’d be incredibly beneficial for him, he considered attempting Divinity Transformation in the shortest ti possible.
If during a future war, they encountered a world like Ming Wang Star, he could stand alongside the Double Saints of the Immortal Gate and turn the tide.
“Mother reached Elental Energy Perfection long ago, but she suffered a loss of Essence when giving birth to . Whether she can break through is not sothing she can decide herself…”
Pei Qingshuang didn’t elaborate further, but Chen Mobai understood her aning.
For Peach Blossom Sage to attempt advancent, imnse amounts of Spiritual Energy would be required.
The Immortal Gate’s Spiritual Energy reserves, however, were limited in supporting stationed Divinity Transformation cultivators.
Peach Blossom Sage, being tied to the longevity of the Pan Peach Immortal, would, if successful, demand Spiritual Energy far exceeding that of typical human Divinity Transformation cultivators, occupying the supply perpetually.
If Chen Mobai were one of the Double Saints of the Immortal Gate, he might not openly oppose her advancent, but he certainly wouldn’t support it either.
In Chen Mobai’s opinion, for Peach Blossom Sage to advance, it might require a major crisis within the Immortal Gate or a war that resolves resource deficiencies.
If he could assist her, then the Mini Coiled Peach Fruit she condenses would undoubtedly belong to him!
That matter, however, would need to be discussed directly with Peach Blossom Sage.
After all, it was a significant issue and couldn’t be pursued without assurance of a reward.
“Next ti I et Ancestor Baiguang and Leading Star Ancestor, I’ll bring up this matter with them.”
Chen Mobai said this to Pei Qingshuang, who showed an expression of heartfelt gratitude.
After the eting ended, Chen Mobai used Void Walk to return to his courtyard.
Unexpectedly, Shi Wanyu hadn’t gone to rest yet and was waiting in the hall.
Upon inquiry, he learned that their daughter hadn’t returned yet either, leaving Shi Wanyu sowhat worried.
Chen Mobai imdiately called Zhuang Jialan, who said she had just picked up Chen Xiaohei from the departnt gathering and was preparing to co back.
He didn’t avoid Shi Wanyu while making the call, so she relaxed upon hearing this.
“Our daughter has grown up; we should worry less about her.”
Chen Mobai said this to Shi Wanyu, and the two walked toward their bedroom together without waiting for their daughter, deciding to rest first.
The next evening.
During dinner, the family of three discussed how, back on Wangxian Peak, Yu Huiping had ntioned missing Chen Xiaohei. Feeling guilty, Chen Xiaohei realized she hadn’t visited her grandmother since returning to Wangwu Cave Heaven several days ago.
“Yu True Person has been tidying your house all along. Once your work stabilizes, make sure to visit her. After all, Yu True Person has been alone on Wangxian Peak for quite so ti now.”
Chen Mobai earnestly advised Chen Xiaohei, who nodded repeatedly, pledging to pack her things and stay at the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains for so ti this weekend.
“Good. I’m glad you have such filial piety. Rember to bring so fruits or similar items up the mountain.”
Chen Mobai reminded her, while Shi Wanyu worried that their carefree daughter might lack proper etiquette, offering to accompany her to the visit.
“That works. I’m going to be busy with promotion-related matters soon and may need to work overti long-term at the Hall of Orthodox Law.”
Chen Mobai imdiately agreed.
“Oh, Dad, I received a package today from the Taoist Institute’s Artifact-refining Departnt.”
After dinner, Chen Xiaohei excitedly took out a flat, rectangular Jade Zhang shaped like a slanted knife blade.
The surface of the Jade Zhang was smooth, but its interior faintly shimred with cloud-like patterns that seed to shift constantly, resembling burning clouds within.
Chen Mobai took it and, upon examining it with The Union of Differences, marveled.
“What craftsmanship! To use just a piece of Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade to refine a fourth-rank Magic Artifact—truly the Artifact-refining Departnt of the Dance Tool Dao Academy deserves its reputation as the best in the Immortal Gate!”
Back when Chen Mobai knew that Chen Xiaohei carried the fifth-rank Lingxiao Jade Pendant from Primordial Elental Academy—which she’d eventually have to return—he worried about any possible impact on her Nine Yin ridian condition upon losing it. Therefore, he gave her the Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade.
Using his and Yu Huiping’s connections, Dance Tool Dao Academy had been working on this project for years:
How to refine the Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade into a suitable Magic Artifact for Chen Xiaohei.
Ultimately, considering she already had the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo as a Defensive Magic Weapon, they refined the Jade Zhang for her instead.
The Jade Zhang was fourth-rank interdiate grade and already exhibited signs of spiritual essence condensing upon completion, a testant to the Artifact-refining expertise of Dance Tool Dao Academy.
With the sa material brought to the Tianhe Realm, the so-called best Artifact Refiner of the Eastern Wilderness, Sheng Zhaoxi, would at most produce a third-rank Magic Artifact, possibly even smugly praising himself for his skill.
“Cherish it well and never squander the academy’s effort.”
After appraising the Jade Zhang, Chen Mobai returned it to Chen Xiaohei. He then rembered that her assortnt of Magic Artifacts seed sowhat excessive given her re Foundation Establishnt realm, finding it rather cumberso.
“You have the Lingxiao Jade Pendant for defense and the Jade Zhang for attack. Keeping the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo on you might be more of a burden—why not leave it with for safekeeping?”
Chen Mobai thought about his difficulty adjusting without the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo for travel and asked his daughter to lend him the Magic Artifact.
“But the Jade Pendant doesn’t respond to ?”
Chen Xiaohei seed reluctant.
The Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo had been her most used and familiar Magic Artifact since obtaining it from the academy. After Chen Mobai personally empowered it, it had beco her favorite and most versatile piece.
“That’s easy. Give the Jade Pendant, and I’ll help you establish communication with it.”
Chen Mobai, fully confident, extended his hand to Chen Xiaohei. There wasn’t a single Magic Artifact within the Immortal Gate, be it Purple Lightning Qing Shuang, Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo, or even the Lingxiao Jade Pendant—a fifth-rank artifact—that wouldn’t give him face.
“Dad, here!”
Chen Xiaohei had seemingly anticipated this and imdiately pulled out the Jade Pendant dangling from a red ribbon around her snow-white neck, handing it over to Chen Mobai with eager anticipation.
