I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 963 529 Fall

Chapter 963: Chapter 529: Fall Chapter 963: Chapter 529: Fall Ming Nation, Hunyuan Immortal City.

After waiting for a month, Zhao Xuankang finally met the person he wished to see.

Kong Shanxu led him into a vast courtyard within the Immortal City, which even boasted a lake. The crystal-clear waters were home to various colored Spirit Fish, whose movements shimmered in the sunlight, casting a spectrum of rainbow ripples.

On a pavilion by the lake stood a refined and handsome male Cultivator.

Dressed in dark cyan robes, with a high headpiece and wide belt, a piece of white jade hung at his waist. From time to time, he scattered a handful of fish food into the lake, drawing the multitude of colorful Spirit Fish towards him as they vied for the treat.

“True Person Zhou really knows how to keep his posure, to be so leisurely even now,”

Upon seeing this scene, Zhao Xuankang couldn’t help but speak to the man by the lake.

This person was none other than the Golden Core Ancestor of the Earth Vein of the Five Elements Sect, Zhou Ye, who had inherited most of Ancestor Hunyuan’s legacy.

“I was at a critical moment in my recent closed-door cultivation, which made you, True Person Zhao, wait for a long time.”

Zhou Ye said evenly, slowly scattering the rest of the fish food over the lake’s surface before turning around and gesturing for Zhao Xuankang to sit down.

“Between us, there’s no longer any need for such courteous words. Zhou Shengqing is undergoing ‘Nascent Soul Formation,’ and yet you truly do nothing?”

Zhao Xuankang asked Zhou Ye with a frown.

“And what should I do? Mobilize all the cultivators from the Five Elements Sect to attack Giant Tree Ridge?”

Zhou Ye remained unfazed. A beautiful and tall Female Cultivator in a white dress came over to prepare tea for the two Golden Core Cultivators, while Kong Shanxu fetched another box of feed.

“Don’t forget, Zhou Shengqing was personally expelled from the Five Elements Sect by you. Once he succeeds in ‘Nascent Soul Formation,’ the first vendetta he’ll want to avenge is to unseat you and take back Hunyuan Immortal City for himself,”

Zhao Xuankang’s words elicited a wordless chuckle from Zhou Ye. He took the tea from the Female Cultivator beside him, took a gentle sip, and then picked up more feed from the table and walked to the edge of the lake.

“True Person Zhao is mistaken. My second senior brother and I only had a clash of principles; thus we split our ways after the passing of our master. If he can succeed in ‘Nascent Soul Formation,’ I would willingly give him not just Hunyuan Immortal City, but even the entire Five Elements Sect,”

Zhou Ye said with a smile even as he continued to sprinkle feed over the lake.

The Spirit Fish that had scattered after their meal were once again attracted back towards him.

“Do you believe your own words?”

Zhao Xuankang didn’t take the tea, standing instead beside Zhou Ye and staring at him coldly.

“Whether I believe it or not is irrelevant. Seventy years ago, I clearly recognized that my third and fourth seniors didn’t share the same heart as I, and if it’s just me, the first thing on my mind when facing three Nascent-soul cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect would be to preserve what I have now, not to risk my life with you on an impractical venture.”

After Zhou Ye said this, Zhao Xuankang knew that it would be impossible to incite him to act against the Divine Wood Sect.

“If you’re willing to act, I can muster seven Golden Core Cultivators. All we need to do is take a round over Giant Tree Ridge. Even if we cannot break the Array of Ten Thousand Woods, we could affect Zhou Shengqing’s ‘Nascent Soul Formation.'”

Hearing this, Zhou Ye’s eyebrows twitched in surprise, giving Zhao Xuankang an unexpected glance.

“Which seven?”

“Me, junior brother Xuan Shu, a Loose cultivator Nascent-soul from the East Barbarians, and three side sect cultivators who wish to keep their identities confidential. If you join us, we could together persuade Yan Shaoyin and Kong Lingling, with more than a fifty percent chance of success.”

Such words meant at most, they could rally nine Nascent-soul cultivators!

If Zhou Ye could persuade the other two from the Five Elements Sect as well, their assembly would be all the more formidable.

With eleven Nascent-soul cultivators willing to go all out, even a Rank-4 Array of Ten Thousand Woods might not be able to withstand their assault!

“How about that, are you tempted?”

Zhao Xuankang pursued the question when he saw Zhou Ye’s silence. Over the past half a year, he had used up over three hundred years’ worth of connections built during his time at the Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace to scrape together such an array of allies.

It was all to succeed in one fell swoop, to utterly destroy the Divine Wood Sect.

“True Person Zhao, which of these Spirit Fish do you find the most beautiful?”

At that moment, Zhou Ye suddenly spoke, but pointed at the colorful fish in the lake, diverting the topic.

“That one.”

Zhao Xuankang didn’t understand his intention but casually pointed to a translucent Spirit Fish, shiny as white jade.

Indeed, it was the most beautiful, encircled by the other fish at the center, leisurely swallowing the fish food falling from above. The colorful scales of the surrounding fish reflected upon it, enveloping it in a radiant, multi-colored light, stunningly beautiful.

“In a year’s time, this fish will grow to its most plump state. When True Person Zhao es by then, how about I treat you to this Spirit Fish?”

Zhou Ye laughed as he pointed to the white jade-like transparent Spirit Fish, marking its back with a golden streak using his Spiritual Power, before scattering all of the remaining feed into the water.

“If you enjoy it, then do so. Ever since junior brother Nanxuan Jing died, I’ve hardly had any appetite,”

Zhao Xuankang said coldly, trying to bring the conversation back to the Divine Wood Sect.

“Life is brief. We, Golden Core Cultivators, live at most for five hundred years. We should enjoy life while we can. The taste of this colorful Spirit Fish is quite rare; even my respected master used to praise it unceasingly when he was alive.”
