"Hmm, leave it to ."
Ming Yuhua nodded. Although he had a smooth journey from graduation to Core Formation, and now to Nascent Soul Formation, he knew that in the Immortal Gate, advancent was difficult without connections.
Even soone as gifted as Chen Mobai, who required no resources, needed the backing of the Weapon Dancing Sect to gain entry to The Three Great Halls and eventually beco a leader of the Immortal Gate.
Ming Yuhua was single, and his parents and relatives had passed away. After achieving Nascent Soul Formation, he beca the representative of the Weapon Dancing Sect in The Three Great Halls, inevitably taking on the responsibility of caring for the students and even descendants of the Weapon Dancing Sect.
This was also the role of the sect.
From now on, Ming Yuhua would be the leader of the Weapon Dancing Sect.
After eting with classmates from the taphysical Class, Ming Yuhua had an epiphany. Chen Mobai sent him to the Yuping Small Realm and also left him a complete set of Nascent Soul Formation resources.
Then, Chen Mobai continued to et his high school classmates.
After the death of Song Zheng and his wife, only a few were still alive.
And most of these people were in their hotown, Red Sandstone City.
In this matter, Chen Mobai called out to Yan Bingxuan, who naturally returned.
Danxia Mountain.
Under the Jade Phoenix Tree, as the Golden Core Cultivator in charge of Red Sandstone City, Wang Xinying, notified by Chen Mobai, invited Cao Yaling, Shi Yuanqing, and Xu Yuan to co over.
In their year at Red Sandstone City Immortal Gate Fifth High School, Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan had already beco honorary principals, their portraits hanging in the hallways. Chen Mobai even had a statue erected at the school gate, signifying the presence of a taphysical Ancestor.
As for Song Zheng and other Foundation Establishnt practitioners, they were considered outstanding alumni, recorded separately in the school archives.
After all, although Fifth High School had beco indisputably the top high school in Red Sandstone City, the student resources in this Blessed Earth City were quite ordinary, and those who could achieve Foundation Establishnt were few.
Xu Yuan: "Old Song and the class president have passed away. I wanted to burn incense for them, but my health is really failing, and I’m afraid I might stop breathing on my way to Weiyu Cave Heaven."
Chen Mobai nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
The Immortal Gate has many restrictions on transportation for elderly cultivators, especially those nearing their lifespan’s end.
Xu Yuan was lucky, though he didn’t achieve Foundation Establishnt while serving in the military like Song Zheng, he married Shi Jingjing and had children after returning. It took him decades to gather a set of Foundation Establishnt Trithings from the Immortal Gate Network and finally broke through successfully at the age of eighty plus.
Because of this, his appearance was the oldest among those present, his face full of wrinkles.
However, Chen Mobai could hear that his vitality was still decent, and he should live for a few more years.
Cao Yaling, who remained single until now, maintained herself pretty well and seed to have practiced so health-preserving cultivation techniques, but the crow’s feet at her eyes still betrayed her true age. Looking at Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan, who sat together almost unchanged from high school, she said enviously, "Seeing you two still so youthful, I regret not trying harder when I was young."
Shi Yuanqing, however, didn’t hold back and said, "Forget it. No matter how hard you try, you can’t succeed in Core Formation."
Back in their year, excluding Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan, actually, Cao Yaling had the highest talent. But she valued her sisterly bonds and always perford similarly to Shi Jingjing, pretending all along, and eventually, her talent began to seem average.
"I heard you recently had a grandson..."
Chen Mobai imdiately changed the subject, pouring wine for Xu Yuan, who instantly beca radiant and started talking endlessly.
Xu Yuan and Shi Jingjing’s son married the daughter of Lu Hongsheng and Yu Shu. However, because Xu Yuan was a Foundation Establishnt practitioner with a bit of wealth, his son and daughter-in-law hadn’t had children yet, thinking they might succeed in Foundation Establishnt at an old age like Xu Yuan.
But after failing twice, they finally accepted it and started continuing their bloodline.
"I visited yesterday, Gold Water Spiritual Roots with dual attributes, he can follow my path, convert to Ice Spirit Root, and be recomnded to the Nature Studies Academy."
Yan Bingxuan spoke for the first ti, and Chen Mobai was pleased to hear it.
"If he reaches Foundation Establishnt Completion in the future, give him a chance at Core Formation."
Chen Mobai’s words made Yan Bingxuan nod lightly, also making Xu Yuan and the others very happy.
Though they were Foundation Establishnt, the one with the highest cultivation level, Shi Yuanqing, was stuck at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishnt.
Seeing the younger generation have a chance for Core Formation felt like experiencing it themselves.
"Sotis, I really envy spirit plants. Though their spirituality is weak, they can live for thousands of years with just sunlight, rain, and spiritual energy..."
Shi Yuanqing drank a bit too much, stood up from his seat, and looked at the Jade Phoenix Tree covering the sky, expressing his feelings.
Hearing this, both Cao Yaling and Xu Yuan sighed heavily.
Although they’ve co to terms with their nearing end, who wouldn’t want to live if possible?
In response, Chen Mobai and Yan Bingxuan, who still had plenty of lifespan left, didn’t know how to comfort them, only silently drinking the contents of their cups.
As the sun was about to set, Wang Xinying ca up and, together with Yan Bingxuan, took the drunken Cao Yaling and the others down the mountain.
Once alone, Chen Mobai sighed softly and retrieved spiritual wine brewed by Zhuo Ming from the Law Domain.
After this eting, the next one would be visiting these classmates’ graves to offer incense.
He recalled that ti after high school graduation, when everyone parted ways, all full of vigor and promise.
And now, they were either dead or frail and old.
No longer, like the youthful wanderings!
Though Chen Mobai knew he still had thousands of years of lifespan ahead, without Harmonization, he would still age and die.
It was witnessing these familiar faces die one by one that made him realize the terror of ti.
What frightened him more was that even if he achieved Harmonization, facing the end and rebirth of the universe, he would still die, disappearing along with the Tao.
He didn’t want to vanish silently in a remote corner of the universe.
So, after dealing with the threat of the Three Eyed Tribe, it was ti to leave the Earth Elent Star.
Here, even if he could successfully cultivate the void using the resources of the Tianhe Realm and his talent, achieving Harmonization was impossible.
To achieve eternal life, even eternal transcendence, he had to reach the universe’s center, even the Four Palaces.
Chen Mobai, always comfortable in his comfort zone, finally resolved at this mont to take that step.
And just then, on the Pure Yang Scroll, an Innate Great Dao he sought to comprehend but never had, finally revealed itself as his mindset tamorphosed today.
In the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, the phoenix phantom that erged after the Cinnabar Phoenix Facing the Sun Diagram’s completion turned from illusion to reality.
Azure Bird, Golden Phoenix, Peacock!
The three Soul Dharma Aspects rged into one, with all characteristics of the Phoenix appearing in a stunning divine bird.
Just as those being led away from Danxia Mountain heard a lodious song of myriad birds greeting the phoenix.
Soon, from the Parasol Tree Forest beside them, all different kinds of birds took flight, chirping as they flew towards the massive Jade Phoenix Tree at the mountain’s peak.
"Huh!"
Both Wang Xinying and Yan Bingxuan felt the underground spirit vein’s drastic change, exclaiming in surprise.
But after exchanging a glance, they did not venture upward.
After all, it was Chen Mobai at the peak, and he would surely handle everything well.
Chen Mobai sat beneath the Jade Phoenix Tree, feeling the recently comprehended Nirvana Great Dao.
As he understood this Great Dao, the Jade Phoenix Tree, which had been stuck at Fourth Rank Peak, finally broke through its bottleneck, beginning its ascension to Rank-5!
