Chen Mobai began asking about what mattered most to him upon returning to the Divine Wood Sect.
“You have to go to the Witchcraft Division for that. It’s also ti for you to report your Foundation Establishnt to the Sect Leader. Co with .” The Divine Wood Sect’s three divisions govern twelve departnts. Among them, the Shenmu Hall directly oversees only two departnts, Witchcraft and Cultivation Technique, managing the sect’s hidden strength and heritage respectively.
He followed E Yun to et with the Sect Leader, ng Hong.
“Very good!”
The old man who was fishing swiftly returned when he heard the news of Chen Mobai’s successful foundation establishnt, laughing heartily.
“The sect is flourishing under my leadership, greatly gratifying .” ng Hong stood in the middle of the hall, chatting with E Yun and Chen Mobai.
“Master, Junior Brother Chen has successfully ford his foundation, he is eligible to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm.”
Before Chen Mobai could politely broach the topic, E Yun was already saying it outright.
As it should be, Lu Yi, who is in charge of opening the secret realm, has been away handling so affairs. We might have to wait until he returns.”
ng Hong agreed without hesitation.
Afterward, the Sect Leader continued talking with them for a while, before suddenly asking Chen Mobai a question.
“You’ve been cultivating till now without a master, are you interested in becoming my disciple?”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai hesitated.
He had heard that the Sect Leader had reached the Perfection stage of the Foundation Establishnt and was about to retreat to attain Core Formation. Now he is focused on cultivating the next Sect Leader.
Taking on a disciple is definitely because he has recognized Chen Mobai’s talents and wants to catch as many fish as possible.
“I prefer individual cultivation.”
In the end, Chen Mobai refused.
Although having ng Hong as his master had many benefits, Chen carried too many secrets to avoid exposure-it would be better to cultivate solo.
“What a pity.”
ng Hong could only sigh, shaking his head and signaling for them to leave.
“How is it?”
After Chen Mobai and E Yun left, ng Hong suddenly turned to look into the shadow of the hall, where Cang Qi erged, handing him a scroll.
“We’ve heard from our insiders in the Five Elent Sect that Chun Yusu has been putting out assassination contracts on the black market.”
“Who’s the target? What happened?”
ng Hong lifted his head abruptly with narrowed eyes, causing the temperature in the Shenmu Hall to seemingly drop several degrees, which made Cang Qi shiver.
Soone took the contract, but up until now it hasn’t been called off.”
If it hasn’t been called off, it ans the mission has not been completed yet.
“What about Lu Yi’s side?”
“Chen Guixian has not left Jian Country. He investigated all the Foundation Establishnt cultivators in the country, and found that a total of five people have left their residing places recently. The most suspicious one is Yuan Hongyuan from Black Cloud Mountain. Yuan Shaoyuan and his two brothers said they went on a business trip to Yun Country with the Luo Family. However their ti of disappearance coincides with Chen Guixian becoming a true successor. Due to the delay in intelligence from Yun Country, we can’t confirm if this is true. But Yuan Hongyuan mysteriously left Black Cloud Mountain yesterday and returned seriously injured.”
“Seriously injured? Are you sure?”
Although he knew that Yuan Hongyuan might potentially be a spy implanted in Jian Country by an opposing sect, ng Hong also knew this man achieved Foundation Establishnt through force, and has astonishing battle power. Even a Mid Foundation Establishnt cultivator could only hold their ground against him.
“Yes, Lu Yi reported that today, Yuan Hongyuan sent his n to buy elixirs for sword wounds in various Fang Markets. He was likely pitted against a Foundation Establishnt Sword Cultivator and had a hard ti.”
“A Foundation Establishnt Sword Cultivator!”
ng Hong and Cang Qi exchanged a glance. Thinking about the injury that Chen Mobai had earlier, an answer imdiately erged in their hearts.
“If it was really Chen Guixian, why didn’t he say anything?”
“I haven’t had much contact with this kid, but he left a deep impression on . He has a fiery temper and probably wants to fully recover before personally seeking revenge.”
Cang Qi believed he was beginning to understand Chen Mobai, this simple-minded Sword Cultivator. ng Hong thought for a mont, considering the explanation quite reasonable.
Since he’s not ntioning it, let’s pretend we don’t know either. Let’s keep
Yuan Hongyuan around as his sharpening stone.”
“However, this kid is really savage. He just broke through and picked a fight with Yuan Hongyuan, a renowned Foundation Establishnt expert. He won against the odds, reminding of Master Mo back in the old days.” Mo Douguang from Golden Cliff was known as the top sword cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness before his Core Formation, having managed to slain a Mid Foundation Establishnt cultivator during his Early Foundation Establishnt stage.
“It’s been four years since the last batch of Foundation Building Pills were distributed in the Back to Sky Valley. Issue a notice in the na of Shenmu Hall, stating that the Divine Tree Secret Realm will open in a month. That should quicken the pace of those brats.”
“Yes.”
Naturally, Chen Mobai was unaware of the conversation that took place in the Shenmu Hall after he left.
He followed E Yun to the Book Pavilion.
The key to opening the Divine Tree Secret Realm has to be arranged by the Cultivation Technique Departnt, but the Foundation Building versions of the techniques ‘Eternal Youth Sutra’ and ‘Red Fla Sword Jue’ only require the corresponding identity naplate.
Chen Mobai took out his newly upgraded Foundation Establishnt naplate. The guardian of the Book Pavilion was still the elderly Hu surna cultivator.
He clearly rembered Chen Mobai and was visibly shocked to see that the latter had achieved Foundation Establishnt.
“A young genius indeed!”
With a sigh, he felt his aging body and couldn’t help but regret not fighting till the end to achieve Foundation Establishnt through force in his youth.
The Book Pavilion, naturally, is a treasure trove for other disciples of the Divine Wood Sect..
