Chapter 623: Chapter 399: Spirit Rice Planning (6k) _2
The golden light penetrated his flesh, illuminating the void around him. The heaven-shaking tribulation fire seemed to lose its energy under the thorough illumination of the golden light, and started to extinguish.
“Did it work?”
Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help expressing his surprise and delight.
“Half success. There are still the Heart Demon and the final Heavenly Tribulation.”
Hong He sighed. Meng Hong had used all his trump cards, but only succeeded in forming his Gold Core.
This Core Formation is basically impossible to succeed now!
As expected, on the fourth day, Meng Hong suddenly turned pale, a wisp of black energy flashed between his brows, and the golden light in his Dantian Qi Sea suddenly dimmed, eventually disappearing.
And the Heavenly Tribulation Fire, which was originally violent and seemed to be brewing a final powerful attack, seemed to have received a signal, vanishing into thin air in the blink of an eye.
The sky became clear and bright again.
However, the mood of the Divine Wood Sect was gloomy.
After Meng Hong failed in his Core Formation, the Ghost Cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage did not stay long and immediately left with Madame Guo from above Giant Tree Ridge.
In a short while, a gloomy Zhou Shengqing came back.
The two ancestors went straight to Meng Hong’s Everlife Wood, fed him a healing elixir, and then called Chu Zuoshu over.
Afterwards, Chu Zuoshu dismissed all Foundation Establishment Cultivators of Divine Wood Sect.
“The Sect Leader failed in his Core Formation. His body needs to recuperate. Let me take care of him.”
However, E Yun did not leave, expressing his thoughts to Chu Zuoshu.
“Mu Yuan will take care of Elder Brother Meng. However, since you’re so determined, let you two brothers stay to take care of him for a while.”
Chu Zuoshu thought for a while then agreed, Zhou Wangshen also immediately echoed his opinion.
Therefore, all three Foundation Establishment disciples of Meng Hong were left behind.
Chen Mobai, along with Hong He, followed the Sect Leader’s mand and left the place.
“Core Formation is difficult indeed.”
Yuan Chiye, who was following them, couldn’t help but sigh heavily half way through, having lost confidence in his own Core Formation.
“In the East Barbarians, if you give them enough Spirit Stones, the Three Great Sects are willing to protect the Loose Cultivators in their Core Formation. If a chance arises in the future, I may not be forming my Core in Giant Tree Ridge.”
Hong He suddenly said this.
The three major sects in the Eastern Yi Territory, each led by a Nascent Soul elder ancestor, provided locations for loose cultivators for Core Formation, which was a major source of revenue for them.
“The main issue is that there are too many rivals in our sect in the Eastern Wilderness. If all rivals could be swept away, there would be no problem at all.”
Chen Mobai pinpointed the crux of the problem succinctly.
The Divine Wood Sect had been too smooth sailing recently, neither Meng Hong nor the two ancestors expected that someone would take advantage of this opportunity to doorstep.
Even though there was no real action taken, it had created enough intimidation for Meng Hong.
Core Formation is essentially a precarious process. After Ji Zhenshi’s tactic and the disturbance from two ghost cultivators, it was only natural that Meng Hong failed in his Core Formation.
However, it was likely because they were too high-profile in calling back E Yun and others these days, which led outsiders to know about Meng Hong’s Core Formation timing.
“Junior Brother Chen, after our Core Formation, do you think it’s better to eliminate Mountain Shaker Peak first or Liu Jia Mountain is easier?”
At this moment, Hong He brought up a surprising topic to Chen Mobai.
“Red Senior Brother has so much confidence in Core Formation.”
“With my talent, there’s a good chance that I’d succeed in Core Formation. If you fail in yours, I’d be very disappointed.” Hong He’s bold statement left Yuan Chiye unsure of how to react.
“Then let’s get rid of Mountain Shaker Peak first.”
Chen Mobai considered for a while before giving this answer.
“First eliminate Mountain Shaker Peak, then Liu Jia Mountain. By that time, half of the spiritual vein lands of the Northern Eastern Wasteland will fall into the palm of our Divine Wood Sect. Controlling all the Spiritual Land bordering Cloud Dream, your idea indeed coincides with mine.”
“After taking down Mountain Shaker Peak and Liu Jia Mountain, when should we make a move on the Five Elements Sect?”
As Hong He was talking confidently, Chen Mobai abruptly asked a question that made him choke.
“I’m afraid the Five Elements Sect wouldn’t be easy to deal with.”
“If both of us, along with our Heavenly Spiritual Root Junior Sister Yin, succeed in our Core Formation, then our sect will have five Nascent Souls. Moreover, if you include Uncle Mo from Golden Cliff, won’t regaining the orthodoxy of Five Elements be a piece of cake?”
Chen Mobai asked in return. Although the Eastern Wilderness was known as impoverished in Eastern Region, the resources of the spiritual veins had far exceeded any Daoist Academy of the Immortal Gate. If one could fully control it, they could cultivate several Nascent Souls.
If capable, he wishes to unify the entire Eastern Wilderness with the power of the Divine Wood Sect.
“Junior Brother has a point.”
Hong He hadn’t thought so far initially, but after being pointed out by Chen Mobai, he suddenly felt this arrangement plausible.
Also, his cultivation requires the tremendous water region of Cloud Dream. If he could truly unify the Eastern Wilderness, not to mention Core Formation, even Nascent Soul Formation would be a possibility.
“After eliminating Mountain Shaker Peak and Liu Jia Mountain, why not get rid of Snow Blowing Palace and Back to Sky Valley first and then target Five Elements Sect?”
Hong He thought for a while, revised his plan, feeling that the Five Elements Sect was the strongest, and perhaps had the groundwork laid down by the Hun Yuan elder, it would be better to leave it till last.
“I’m just afraid that after we eliminate Mountain Shaker Peak and Liu Jia Mountain, the Five Elements Sect might attack us before we start on Snow Blowing Palace and Back to Sky Valley.”
