Chapter 847: Chapter 477: Preaching Chapter 847: Chapter 477: Preaching Chen Mobai once cherished high hopes for this tea tree, not only leveraging connections to obtain a Rank-3 Snow Needle Immortal Bud branch from the Bai family but also personally grafting it into the Great Dao Tree, wishing to use the abundant vitality of the Everlife Wood to change the tea tree’s habits, making it possible for it to survive in Giant Tree Ridge.
Regrettably, although the graft was successful, it was only Rank-1.
A Rank-1 tea tree, even for his three disciples, was of little use.
Nevertheless, as it was a tea tree he had grafted and planted himself, Chen Mobai still checked on it from ti to ti and even thought about cultivating and leveling it up should the opportunity arise.
Now, with Zhuo Ming’s Ten Thousand Spirit Rhinoceros Abilities, Chen Mobai felt that this extravagant hope seed to have a chance of coming true.
“These tea trees won’t do, it’s already quite difficult for them to survive here.”
There was a small tea garden on the mid-slopes of Xiao Nanshan, planting not only Chen Mobai’s grafted tea tree but also twenty other tea trees gifted by Bai Dingxian in the past.
But these tea trees were still better suited for slightly colder, shadier climates. Zhuo Ming felt regret as she touched a few of the plants and couldn’t help but shake her head.
“I recall that Giant Tree Ridge also has many wild tea trees; the Spirit Plant Departnt should have records. I’ll go find Shi Fengping later to see if we can transplant so of those wild tea trees here. When the ti cos, you’ll have to work hard to find suitable varieties for grafting and leveling up.”
Chen Mobai’s love for farming was deeply ingrained, and drinking tea for long periods could enhance comprehension and thinking ability. What a pity the Bai family’s Snow Needle Immortal Buds were not plentiful, so he had always been considering whether it was possible to cultivate a unique Rank-3 tea variety suited to the local climate.
Zhuo Ming had the talent for it and could easily beco a top-tier Spirit Plant Master.
However, knowledge of tea tree-related spirit plants was scarce within the Divine Wood Sect; it was still necessary for her to systematically study at the Immortal Gate before coming back to teach.
“Yes, Master.”
With years of farming experience, Zhuo Ming might be simple and slow in other aspects, but she was very keenly aware of the power of her Ten Thousand Spirit Rhinoceros Abilities.
With these abilities, she could quickly integrate the sect’s spirit plant heritage and beco a Rank-3 Spirit Plant Master in the shortest ti possible.
She might even cultivate Rank-3 Spirit Rice or tea varieties.
Thinking about this made her extrely excited.
That evening, the master and disciples had another drink together, and the dishes Zhuo Ming cooked tasted different; she had inherited Chen Mobai’s teachings and even surpassed the teacher.
Chen Mobai ate to his satisfaction and stayed in Xiao Nanshan for a while longer.
It wasn’t out of gluttony but because Zhuo Ming had just completed her Foundation Establishnt and had many questions about her subsequent cultivation that needed her teacher’s instruction.
On the first day, Zhuo Ming contemplated the complete texts of Mother Earth Cultivation and the Spirit Plant Master’s inheritance on her own.
The next day, she brought her doubts and notes to Xiao Nanshan.
The knowledge needed after Foundation Establishnt, compared to during Qi Cultivation, was deeper and more obscure. If Chen Mobai hadn’t had the knowledge system of the Immortal Gate as support, he wouldn’t have dared to take on the role of a teacher.
Fortunately, although Zhuo Ming’s comprehension was average, it matched perfectly with the cultivation of Mother Earth Cultivation. Plus, having attained Ten Thousand Spirit Rhinoceros Abilities after Hearing the Path Foundation Establishnt, she had her own path to the heavens.
Chen Mobai spent three days guiding her through the full text of Mother Earth Cultivation.
There were parts Zhuo Ming didn’t understand, but that was okay. The earth would gradually enlighten her during the process of farming.
After discussing the contents of Foundation Establishnt cultivation, Chen Mobai also took her for a visit to the Spirit Plant Departnt.
Ever since Fu Zongjue had Shi Fengping start planting Green Jade Spirit Rice, the head of the Spirit Plant Departnt had wisely understood that Chen Mobai’s status in the hearts of the two old ancestors would certainly surpass his, unless Chen Mobai continuously failed at Core Formation.
So when Chen Mobai ca to him, Shi Fengping personally helped him to look up all the materials related to spiritual tea trees in Giant Tree Ridge.
“Junior Brother Chen, these are all the spiritual tea trees recorded by the Spirit Plant Departnt. So of the more precious ones are guarded by disciples, but many others are just inspected by our departnt’s disciples every once in a while, ensuring the tea trees are still there,” Shi Fengping said warmly, showing Chen Mobai and his disciple the distribution maps of the tea trees. He then took the opportunity to ask so questions about planting Green Jade Spirit Rice, which he had been hesitant to ask Chen Mobai about before.
Chen Mobai wasn’t one to turn away anyone seeking help, and he answered each question.
“Ming’er has received my true teachings. If there are any issues with the spirit rice in the future, Brother Shi can ask her directly.”
Before leaving, Chen Mobai introduced Zhuo Ming to Shi Fengping, considering that his disciple would certainly beco the number one in Spirit Plants within the Divine Wood Sect and she would need to deal a lot with the Spirit Plant Departnt after her Foundation Establishnt.
“It’s been my wish to et Junior Sister Zhuo since Hearing the Path Foundation Establishnt. Her future achievents are boundless,” Shi Fengping said, his words pleasing like a breath of spring air once he had set aside his pride.
Chen Mobai laughed heartily and then took Zhuo Ming to et friends like Sun Gaochang. Everyone praised his suddenly famous second disciple.
Two of his three disciples succeeded in their first Foundation Establishnt, and disciples like Yu Lian, Mu Yuan, and Li Yixian had also succeeded in Foundation Establishnt thanks to his guidance. These achievents earned Chen Mobai a reputation as a Great Sage and Good Teacher within the sect.
Now, many True Disciples who had yet to take the Foundation Building Pill were seeking connections, wishing to receive guidance from Chen Mobai.
