Regarding the matter of Xing Ji coming to visit, Chen Mobai roughly understood its purpose. Considering the substantial number of Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Five Elents Sect, the contribution of the Three Lights Divine Water was significant, so he sent Han Zhiling out to greet him.
"Salutations, True Monarch!"
After Xing Ji entered, he courteously perford a bow, then handed a jade box to Han Zhiling.
Seeing Xing Ji not arriving empty-handed, Chen Mobai secretly nodded in approval, but in discourse, he maintained politeness: "Since you’ve co, there’s no need for a gift. It feels a bit too formal."
While speaking, Chen Mobai’s Divine Sense swept over, and he saw two bottles of Three Lights Divine Water within the jade box, prompting a slight smile at the corners of his mouth as he stood up and invited Xing Ji to sit, instructing Han Zhiling to prepare a pot of fine tea.
"True Monarch, the main reason for my visit today is to seek your assistance."
Knowing Chen Mobai was a straightforward person, Xing Ji directly stated the purpose of his visit upon sitting.
The last grain of Communicating Holy Spirit Pill was up for grabs only between him and Earth Virtue at present. According to the accepted rules, Xing Ji had confidence he could overshadow Earth Virtue, but feared the latter might disregard the rules.
Currently, in the Dongling Domain, under the leadership of the Four Great Holy Lands, the Rank-4 Monsters have been purged. In theory, Xing Ji surpassed Earth Virtue by over two million Dao Coins, and because the Star Heaven Dao Sect attracted more Golden Core Cultivators, this gap would only widen over ti.
But just because Dongling Domain is clear doesn’t an the Ruins are.
Since Earth Virtue raised this point in front of two God Transformation individuals, Xing Ji estimated he might lead the elites of Yi Yuan Dao Palace outside Dongling Domain into the Ruins to hunt Rank-4 Monsters.
After all, Earth Virtue had attained Nascent Soul Complete and also possessed the Primordial Dao Fruit. With a stroke of luck, he could slay a Fourth Rank Superior Grade Monster, making the low-rank monster hunts by Star Heaven Dao Sect in Dongling Domain incomparable.
Thus, Xing Ji’s visit aid to ask Chen Mobai to and the rules, so that only monsters within Dongling Domain counted towards Dao Coins.
"This matter is absolutely impossible."
Yet Chen Mobai directly refused.
While speaking, he also returned the jade box gifted by Xing Ji.
It wasn’t that Chen Mobai wanted to help Earth Virtue, but accomplishing this matter required Dao Morale Sect’s agreent, as they were the ones issuing Dao Coins, in exchange for various monster resources from the Ruins.
For Dao Morale Sect, nurous low-rank monsters were less valuable than a single high-ranked one, thus they actively encouraged Nascent Soul Cultivators from Dongling Domain to venture out and hunt more high-rank monsters.
Not to ntion Dao Morale Sect agreeing to give face to Chen Mobai; opening this rule would cause many disputes in the future.
For instance, how to ascertain whether the hunted monsters belonged to Dongling Domain.
The high-ranked ones were easier to verify, but low-ranked ones were scattered across the entire Ruins. Presently, large hordes of monsters have been defeated within Dongling Domain, including forces within the Five Elents Sect, attempting to organize manpower for deeper exploration of the Ruins.
Anding the rule would bring joy only to Xing Ji, while all other cultivators within Dongling Domain would feel discontent.
re two portions of Three Lights Divine Water weren’t enough for Chen Mobai to speak up.
If it were the alchemy recipe for the Three Lights Divine Water, then a negotiation could be considered.
"True Monarch, I’ve heard from Junior Brother Xing Chen that our sect still possesses a myriad acres of Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice within the Eastern Wilderness Domain. I’m willing to gift it to you in advance celebration of your successful Ascend to beco Immortals, and two millennia longevity!"
Xing Ji clearly understood that compared to gifts, his request was sowhat excessive, so he offered another generous gift.
"A gentleman does not covet others’ treasures, and after Divine Transformation, cultivating the void should avoid excessive entanglents. I appreciate your goodwill, Xing Ji."
If the gift wasn’t in line with aiding Xing Ji’s affair, it remained a re connection. Although Chen Mobai desired the myriad acres of Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice, hoping to seize the Eastern Wilderness’s last territory not owned by the Five Elents Sect, he still felt its value didn’t justify assisting Xing Ji with this matter.
"True Monarch, according to my agreent with Sect Master Shenxi, if I successfully Ascend to beco Immortals with the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, I will present the alchemy recipe for the Three Lights Divine Water, and your sect will be among the Holy Lands, allowing you to transcribe a copy."
Xing Ji ntioned another condition, though previously, the agreent definitely excluded the Five Elents Sect. Now that Chen Mobai established his status as the Yi Yuan Orthodoxy, Xing Ji thought he could use this condition to persuade him.
"Then, I wish you success in Ascending to beco Immortals. However, I’d prefer to comprehend your sect’s treasured immortal book jade slip..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai replied with a semi-mocking smile.
The agreent between Xing Ji and Shenxi had a backup clause: if Xing Ji failed to ascend with Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, he had to offer the immortal book jade slip revealing the Three Lights Divine Water for Holy Land enlightennt.
Having achieved the Realm of the Law of the Five Tones, Chen Mobai already possessed exceptional comprehension, believing he could decipher what the Star Heaven Dao Sect generations of ancestors hadn’t fully understood.
"The premise of the agreent is that I must consu the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill first!"
Xing Ji reminded him, although for the Holy Land, the alchemy recipe for Three Lights Divine Water was precious, it wasn’t absolutely necessary.
After all, the Holy Land needed the Three Lights Divine Water for Nascent Soul Formation, and the Star Heaven Dao Sect wouldn’t dare refuse it.
