Bai Yao and Jun Sandao had left, and Eden Garden regained its tranquility.
Three months later, Wen Ruoshui also received a mission order. Fortunately, it wasn’t to go to the front lines; she was assigned to guard a mine. There was no danger involved, just that the mission would last for thirty years.
The day Wen Ruoshui left, Li He, the young girl, cried buckets.
To Li He, Wen Ruoshui was not just a guide in cultivation but also like a mother.
As Senior Sister Wen Ruo began formally instructing Li He in her cultivation, Eden Garden beca even more tranquil. Yue Jun, who had said he would co over later, sent Chen Jiuge a ssage: "I’m heading to the front lines. Keep the house for . When I return, I’ll co to seek your guidance."
「Ten years passed in a flash.」
Dharma Manifestation!
Looking at his giant, hundred-ter-tall figure and clenching his fist to feel the surging power, Chen Jiuge marveled internally. This Divine Skill’s amplification is a bit exaggerated! My movents don’t seem as agile, but that’s not a major issue. At least my defense and strength have greatly increased.
Chen Jiuge wasn’t the only one who had progressed in these ten years; the Spiritual Beasts under him had also grown much stronger, at least twice as strong as they had been ten years prior. Yue ng, relying on Alchemy and the large number of Spirit Stones she had obtained, broke through to the Mahayana realm, becoming the third Great Mahayana Spirit Beast under Chen Jiuge.
"Junior Brother, the orders are here." Senior Sister Wen Ruo suddenly appeared, bringing Chen Jiuge unexpected news.
Dispelling his Divine Skill, Chen Jiuge looked at the golden order in his Senior Sister’s hand with great surprise. It’s only been ten years. Why is there another war conscription?
"Junior Brother, I’ve received news that this ti we are going to the Flower Fairy Valley’s Great Thousand World. It could be very dangerous," Wen Ruo said with so concern. "Although your cultivation isn’t low, in a Great Thousand World where Heavenly Immortals can act freely, it’s still not enough. One needs to be at least a True Immortal to have so degree of autonomy."
"Why do these mandatory orders keep appearing? Didn’t I already receive one before? How long has it been?" Chen Jiuge truly couldn’t understand. The Myriad Beasts Sect is so large; surely they can’t always be singling out for missions, especially to such dangerous worlds?
"This isn’t exactly a mandatory order," Wen Ruo explained. "It seems the Elders above feel that we Direct Disciples have beco too comfortable. The Sect’s missions aren’t providing enough tempering for us. They see this Demon Clan invasion as a good opportunity to properly hone us."
"Of course, you can choose not to go. However, your usual privileges might be sowhat restricted, though there won’t be any other significant impact."
"Alright then. When do we leave?" Chen Jiuge reluctantly agreed. He had been cultivating every day for the past ten years, and it had indeed beco a bit dull.
"Within ten years. Currently, Eldest Senior Brother and another Core Disciple are in that Great Thousand World of the Flower Fairy Valley, so the situation is relatively stable. If we’re careful, there shouldn’t be much danger," Wen Ruo reassured him.
"Senior Sister, it’s only been ten years since you passed your Tribulation. Are you really okay?" Chen Jiuge was still sowhat worried about his Senior Sister’s condition, as the ti since her Tribulation was so short.
"Junior Brother, don’t worry about ," Wen Ruo replied. She didn’t know how to explain her situation; her unique constitution wasn’t sothing that could be easily described in words.
After deciding to accept the mission, Wen Ruo and Chen Jiuge discussed it and chose to depart early. They would have to go sooner or later, and a war fought across a Great Thousand World was unlikely to change significantly in just ten years.
After parting ways with his Senior Sister, Chen Jiuge gathered his Spiritual Beasts.
"We’re going to a Great Thousand World. This ti, we’ll also be fighting the Demon Clan. Who among you wants to go?" Chen Jiuge decided to make it voluntary.
For this trip to the Great Thousand World, I’ll act as a Spiritual Beast rchant. As a Mahayana cultivator, I can’t sway the war’s outco anyway. It’s better to provide support quietly from the rear, he thought.
Yue ng was the first to react. Although she often seed the most mischievous, her bond with Chen Jiuge was profound; she would generally follow him wherever he went.
"We’ll go too!" A flicker of excitent flashed in Ming Yujing’s serpentine eyes. This is a chance to put my cultivation results into practice!
"!"
"I’ll go too!"
"And !"
Seeing every Spiritual Beast eager to join, Chen Jiuge felt a headache coming on. He hadn’t planned to bring too many Spiritual Beasts this ti, as he only intended to serve in a support role.
Ultimately, after much earnest persuasion from the various Spiritual Beasts, all of them, except for Chen Ziteng who couldn’t leave the main base yet, were set to go.
「One month later」
Senior Sister Wen Ruo, having arranged everything, led Li He to et Chen Jiuge once again.
"Little He is going too? Isn’t it too soon?" Chen Jiuge frowned slightly, looking at Li He, who was still only at the Nascent Soul realm.
"No, undergoing trials early isn’t a bad thing." Wen Ruo shook her head. "If I hadn’t always stayed within the peak and had instead gone out to gain experience, the previous Heart Demon Tribulation and Heavenly Human Five Decays wouldn’t have taken so long." She and her Junior Brother were cultivators who focused purely on their practice, with hardly any real-world experience. In this respect, the Elder who had issued the mandatory recruitnt for Direct Disciples was correct.
"Alright then. I’ll leave a few Returning to Void Spiritual Beasts for Little He as protection," Chen Jiuge decided. Naturally, he wouldn’t give Little He his own Spiritual Beasts, but rather so from the ecosystem to serve as temporary fighters.
"Yes, that should be fine. Junior Brother, let’s go. This is an autonomous mission, so we just need to head there on our own. Once we reach the designated region, we’ll be under the jurisdiction of that area’s Heavenly Immortal."
"Okay."
The two of them rode Chen Jiuge’s Ao Yi, as Senior Sister Wen Ruo’s Seven-Star Xu Kun was too large and inconvenient for travel.
When they arrived at the Transmission Hall, Chen Jiuge saw many Direct Disciples whom one rarely had the chance to et. Looking at their dazzling Vestnt Robes and their arrogant deanors, Chen Jiuge couldn’t help but feel abashed. Are all Direct Disciples this high-profile?
