Chapter 462: Chapter 328: The Legacy of the Immortality Cult_2

“Indeed, our Divine Wood Sect’s cultivation techniques originated from the Ascension Sect’s legacy, but they are incomplete. If I could’ve obtained the Spirit Light Hundred Changes Jue and Spirit Light Incorporating Weapons Jue during Foundation Establishment, I might’ve mastered the Sacred Tree Divine Light twenty years earlier!”

Upon standing up, Zhou Shengqing opened his right hand. A stream of deep-green energy curled around his palm, morphing into the phantom of a lightning bolt.

“Congratulations, elder brother, on advancing your Longevity True Qi. You must be one step closer to Nascent Soul Formation.”

Among those present, only Fu Zongjue was aware of Zhou Shengqing’s realm. Seeing the deep-green energy in his palm, he was quite envious.

“After Meng Hong establishes his foundation, I will also leave the sect to seek my opportunity for Nascent Soul Formation. It all depends on my destiny in the last years of my life.”

Zhou Shengqing sighed, and the nearby Meng Hong immediately respectfully bowed his head.

“If I’m not mistaken, Chen Guixian, you were probably recognized as an inheritor of the Ascension Sect when you met the standards of the Dao Tree during your first visit to the Divine Tree Secret Realm,”

Having confirmed that Chen Mobai’s magic artifacts and cultivation techniques all came from the Secret Realm, Zhou Shengqing had already inferred a “very reasonable” answer.

“Our Divine Wood Sect is truly fortunate to have a genius like you join us. You should know that during our time, elder brother Zhou and I only managed to reach the ninth step of the Dao Tree. We couldn’t pass the Ascension Dao questioning. Indeed, the tenth step is a major hurdle,”

Fu Zongjue agreed with Zhou Shengqing’s judgment. With both regret and relief, he nodded at Chen Mobai.

“After the two elder ancestors established their foundation, didn’t you try testing again in front of the Dao Tree?”

Chen Mobai voiced his doubt. The key to the Divine Tree Secret Realm lies in the Divine Wood Sect. If they wanted to enter, no one would stop them.

“We didn’t hide this from you. After hearing about your Ascended Sword Stroke, we initiated it once.”

“But each realm has its own level of trials at the Dao Tree. The trials we Golden Core Cultivators face at the Ascertainment Dao page are terrifying. Although Meng Hong forcibly lasted till the final step by relying on his advanced foundation establishment realm, his age was too great. He was directly teleported out,”

“Regarding the Magic Treasure Tree and Talent Tree, our spiritual power marks have already been recorded in them, so there was no response.”

Upon hearing Fu Zongjue’s words, Chen Mobai secretly broke out into a cold sweat. It was fortunate that the rules of the Ascension Sect’s inheritance site were meticulous towards those from the Tianhe Realm. Only he, who came from the Immortal Sect, could take advantage of the Divine Tree.

“The Five Elements Sect has another secret realm left by a Primordial Ancestor. It may also be related to the Ascension Sect. If you have the chance in the future, you can meditate and practice there.”

Zhou Shengqing suddenly muttered a statement that made Chen Mobai’s eyes widen.

“Elder Ancestor, would that be effective?”

“There’s no harm in trying. The Primordial Dao Fruit lies in that secret realm. If you can acquire this cultivation technique, I will give you ten million sect contribution points.”

Upon hearing Zhou Shengqing’s words, sweat trickled down Meng Hong’s forehead. He carefully reminded, “Elder Ancestor, the sect’s storage doesn’t have ten million spirit stones.”

“It doesn’t matter; we can owe it. Doesn’t the sect already owe me several million contribution points? Owing me another ten million is no big deal.”

Zhou Shengqing’s words left Meng Hong with no other choice but to laugh along. Once one reaches Core Formation, the sect offers little help. Mostly, it’s the individual with the Core Formation protecting the sect.

Especially Zhou Shengqing, who is about to attain Perfect Core Formation and preparing for Nascent Soul Formation. Only the Void Mysterious Stone Mine and the thousand-year medicinal herbs can pique his interest.

“When the opportunity comes, I will give it a try.”

Chen Mobai was now also curious about the Primordial Dao Fruit. After all, no Ascended Monks have ever emerged from the Immortal Sect. But in these ancient sects, there’s talk of ascendance.

The Ascension Sect is indeed very famous.

He wants to know why the cultivators here can ascend after practicing to the very brink of perfection.

“Hmm, it’s best if you also successfully form your Core. Then, we, along with disciple Mo, will go back to the Five Elements Sect.”

Zhou Shengqing’s words were as direct as always. It seems he was still resentful about the initial splitting of the family.

“Now it’s time for Meng Hong’s Foundation Building.”

Fu Zongjue reminded him.

“The Spirit Void flower and Break Void Mushroom have been prepared for him. It’s a pity that the Rank-4 Dragon Blood Pill was snatched by Ji Zhenshi. That old man took it himself and broke through to the late stage of Core Formation. Otherwise, there would be more confidence.”

Zhou Shengqing said irritably. He had prepared two types of Gold Core Spiritual Material for Meng Hong’s Core Formation. He even auctioned off a Dragon Blood Pill in the Eastern Yi Territory, which could enhance the physique and vitality. Unfortunately, it was killed and snatched away by Ji Zhenshi in an unguarded moment.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai twitched his mouth slightly. He didn’t know what the Dragon Blood Pill was, but the Spirit Void flower and Break Void Mushroom were the main ingredients of the Liquid Gold Jade Rejuvenation Pill. According to Zhou Shengqing’s meaning, they were not to be made into pills, but to let Meng Hong swallow them raw.

What a waste of resources.

But he could only pretend he didn’t hear. After all, even if these two types of spiritual medicine were given to him, he wouldn’t be able to transform them into Immortal Gate’s Gold Core Spiritual Material.

“You better cultivate diligently in the sect from now on.”

At last, Fu Zongjue instructed Chen Mobai in a serious and heartfelt manner. In their view, his probability of Core Formation was much higher than that of Meng Hong and Chen Guixian.

“Yes.”

When responding, Chen Mobai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

This meant that his words today had convinced the two old ancestors.

When he left Shenmu Hall, Meng Hong saw him off and reminded him not to forget about Mu Yuan’s matter.

As this related to his Core Formation, Chen Mobai was naturally committed.

The next day, he let Luo Yixuan go to Mu Yuan and Li Yixian. The two were waiting in Divine Wood City, and arrived at Chen Mobai’s courtyard within half an hour.

With Yu Lian’s successful experience, Chen Mobai once again imparted his knowledge and solved their problems.

Through the simulation of the formless puppet, Mu Yuan was able to succeed in Foundation Establishment at once, while Li Yixian failed. The gap between their Spiritual Roots was a bit large.

Mu Yuan’s Wood Spirit Root was surprisingly high at 57 points, while Li Yixian’s was only the ordinary three attribute True Spirit Root. However, his puppets were powerful, so he had been ranking in the top three in the Sect’s big competitions these years.

For this, Chen Mobai could only do his best to help, detailing the problems they would encounter in the simulation, and also guiding them on how to solve them.

“You don’t need to have any doubts. As long as you are confident in your heart that you can successfully establish the Foundation, take the pill and take that step.”

Chen Mobai said this to Mu Yuan. Upon hearing this, the latter’s eyes lit up. The confidence he had shown in sweeping the disciples of the Sect in these years was back.

Mu Yuan was originally a very confident person, but he couldn’t find that confidence in front of Chen Mobai.

“Your Spiritual Root is average, and you have consumed too many pills when upgrading your Cultivation Level. Your Spiritual Power is not pure enough, so you will stop at condensing Qi into Liquid.”

As for Li Yixian, Chen Mobai also spoke the truth. Upon hearing this, the latter couldn’t help but hang his head in disappointment, but still thanked him for his guidance.

“When you reach the point of being unable to condense Liquid Spiritual Power, don’t try to be strong. Just give up naturally. Your chance of success in taking the second Foundation Building Pill is still very high.”

The last sentence from Chen Mobai made Li Yixian perk up a bit. Although he couldn’t enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm, as long as he could establish the foundation, he would have the opportunity to climb to higher realms.

“Thank you, Uncle Chen.”

The two bade him goodbye and left.

They both trusted Chen Mobai’s diagnosis and went back to hone their spiritual power and took blood and Qi replenishing medicine as required.

But the truth proved that whether they could succeed or not was decided during the process of their cultivation journey.

Thanks to Mu Yuan’s excellent Spiritual Root, the efficiency of refining spirit Qi was twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, he rarely took pills to improve his cultivation level, and there was almost no Danless Poison in his Spiritual Power. Coupled with the nourishment of Longevity Spiritual Power to his body and Divine Sense, he indeed completed the transformation of spirit and qi once he took the Foundation Building Pill, leading to successful Foundation Establishment.

As for Li Yixian, he stopped at the step of condensing Qi into liquid. Due to the impact of the Danless Poison, during the formation of the fifth drop of liquid Spiritual Power, he faltered and couldn’t continue.

However, he took Chen Mobai’s encouragement to heart, and chose not to force himself further but naturally gave up.

The failure at Foundation Establishment didn’t cause any major damage to his spirit and qi. Not only did it cleanse his marrow, but it also expelled some Danless Poison due to experiencing condensing Qi into liquid once. This laid a solid foundation for him to take the second Foundation Building Pill in the future.
