I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 558: Chapter 371: The Purple Electric Sword Suits Me_2

However, after Master Qing Jing passed away, the Five Thunder Academy immediately wanted to reclaim the Purple Electric Sword from the Nature Studies Academy, which they, of course, were reluctant to part with.

Both academies were equally powerful, and the dispute grew so large that the Hall Master of the Orthodox Law had to intervene, sending the pair of top-notch swords to the Sword Tower of the Mountain and Sea Academy.

Watching the drama unfold, the Mountain and Sea Academy could not help but laugh merrily as they accepted the swords.

“The ownership of the Qing Shuang Sword is clear, it belongs to the Nature Studies Academy. However, the Mountain and Sea Academy, following the command of the Hall of the Orthodox Law, has painstakingly nurtured it for over a hundred years, thus they hold the custody rights of the sword.”

“Therefore, Pei Qingshuang first entered the Mountain and Sea Academy, then the Jumang Daoist Academy intervened to resolve things with the Nature Studies Academy. In addition, she is extremely talented, so she was able to wield the Qing Shuang Sword.”

“If you want the Purple Electric Sword, it will be a bit more troublesome. You not only need to deal with the Mountain and Sea Academy and the Nature Studies Academy, but also the Five Thunder Academy, which has been eyeing the sword.”

After hearing what Bian Jingchun had found out over the past two days, Chen Mobai thought of his close friends Wenren Xuewei, Yan Qiongzhi, and Pei Qingshuang. He showed a look of sudden realization.

Isn’t Yan Qiongzhi from the Nature Studies Academy? So that’s how they formed this connection.

“Listening to your analysis, sister Bian, I feel like I’m getting farther and farther from this Purple Electric Sword.”

Although Chen Mobai was becoming quite famous now, his title as the top Foundation Establishment cultivator of Immortal Cultivation wasn’t enough to make the three major academies approve him as the wielder of the Purple Electric Sword.

Even if he reached the Core Formation stage right now, the three major academies would still not grant him this honor.

Unless, the Daoist Academy is willing to intervene!

“Master, I went all out this time to restore the glory of the dance instruments, painstakingly getting a loan from my own talisman factory to purchase the Sword Sha for condensing evil qi, which resulted in its permanent loss…”

After receiving guidance from Bian Jingchun, Chen Mobai quickly led everyone onto their Flying Artifact and returned to Crimson City.

Upon arriving at the Daoist Academy, he handed over the formalities of receiving the guests to Hua Zijing while he himself hurried to Che Yucheng’s office. Wearing a heavy expression, he started recounting how diligently he had worked during the Daoist Academy exchange event and how significantly he had sacrificed for the glory of the academy.

He was so close to shedding Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew tears to express how heartbroken he was for losing a Sword Sha!

“Hmm, indeed, that was a significant loss for the sake of the academy. In order not to discourage all the students and to set an example for future generations, I think the academy should not only compensate you for your losses but also greatly reward you.”

Upon hearing Che Yucheng’s words that made his heart bloom with joy after his complaints, Chen Mobai felt obliged to maintain a façade.

“Master, it is my duty to bring glory to the academy.”

“Ah, that shouldn’t be the attitude. Reward and merit go hand in hand. I will propose this issue in the teacher’s meeting this week and see if we can apply to compensate you with a Fire Yang Evil.”

Ah, there’s a Fire Yang Evil in the Daoist Academy?

Chen Mobai was not even aware of this. But then, he quickly came to his senses.

What did a Fire Yang Evil count for? He wanted the Purple Electric Sword!

“Master, you don’t need to reward me too much. A token of appreciation would suffice.”

Chen Mobai tactfully added another sentence.

“Then what do you think would be an appropriate reward?”

Che Yucheng asked in a democratic manner, kindly asking Chen Mobai for his opinion.

“I heard online that the Mountain and Sea Academy has a Purple Electric Sword, and they all say it goes well with me.”

Che Yucheng was momentarily speechless as he saw Chen Mobai actually had the audacity to say this.

“That’s a Rank-4 sword.”

“Master, didn’t you also give sister Bian a Rank-4 True Dragon Ding? Not only did I successfully complete the task she should have accomplished, but I also surpassed expectations by bringing the Daoist Academy back to the top spot.”

Chen Mobai subtly expressed his reasoning, implying that he had made such significant contributions and thus the Daoist Academy should consider giving him a Rank-4 Magic Artifact.

“That was lent to her. After coming back this time, she will have to return it to Senior Sister Duanmu before leaving the Daoist Academy.”

With a helpless look, Che Yucheng spoke,

“Ah, I see.”

Upon hearing this, a look of disappointment crossed Chen Mobai’s face, feeling his dreams of wielding the Purple Electric Sword were likely over.

“However, since you’ve made significant achievements this time, I’ll see if I can arrange something but I can’t promise anything.”

In the end, it was these words from Che Yucheng that rekindled a glimmer of hope in Chen Mobai.

“Thank you, Master.”

The master-disciple pair spoke a little more in detail afterwards. Chen Mobai didn’t withhold anything and revealed that Wenren Xuewei had gifted him the Big Tree flower to form good karma.

“Just keep it. Jumang and our Dance Instruments have navigated countless years together as allies. During my 200 years of oversight, the relationship has been very good.”

With Che Yucheng’s reassurance, Chen Mobai finally felt at ease.

After some hesitation, he chose not to utter a word about Kong Feichen and the Devouring Heaven Serpent, not due to any distrust in Che Yucheng but rather, Chen Mobai felt such things were better left unsaid.

“You should drink the Enlightenment Tea as soon as possible.”

Worried that Chen Mobai didn’t know, Che Yucheng gave him a reminder.

“Alright, Master, I plan to rest tonight and then find a place in Building Nine to drink it tomorrow.”

Apart from hurrying back, another major reason for Chen Mobai’s rush was to drink the Enlightenment Tea.

“Hmm, you are an adult now, I won’t tell you how to live your life. Foundation Establishment cultivators drinking Enlightenment tea can glimpse their future Dao journey while in this profound realm. Remember not to waste this opportunity.”

There is a limit to what a True Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage can see, such that many perceive their own cultivation technique realm as flawless when in fact, at a higher level, it is full of holes.

But in the Enlightenment Realm, you can see further and more clearly.

Even considering the entire Immortal Sect, the Enlightenment Tea is among the rarest spiritual objects.

“Master, if the Enlightenment Tea is so powerful, why not use it to enhance some exceptional talents like Meng Huang, who is a Sound Dao genius in cultivating the Shocking God Sonata? If she could use this for foundation establishment and Core Formation, wouldn’t that be great?”

Before leaving, Chen Mobai thought of his good friend. It had been more than a year since he last saw her, and he missed her voice.

Che Yucheng: “Do you know how many cultivators there are in the Immortal Sect?”

Chen Mobai:”Three hundred million!”

This number is always being advertised. Due to the longevity of cultivators, the population has been increasing since the last war of expansion. Recently, the Immortal Sect has even started to implement family planning.

Che Yucheng: “Of three hundred million cultivators, the last thing we lack is talent. The oldest Nascent Soul masters in the Immortal Sect are nearing a thousand years old. In this millennium, they have cultivated hundreds of talents who hoped to master the Shocking God Sonata, but only a handful of them, three to be exact, have been able to achieve Core Formation. If Jiang Yuyuan manages to establish his foundation through his own talent, that indicates his worth in further cultivation. Meng Huang, if she needs Enlightenment Tea just to establish her foundation, then it’s definitely impossible for her to succeed in Core Formation.”

Despite not having been clearly put, Chen Mobai already understood Che Yucheng’s intentions.

The Immortal Sect is indeed short in resources but not in talent.

Even a Heavenly Spiritual Root appears every once in a while, let alone a mere Sound Dao genius.

If Meng Huang can succeed in her foundation establishment through her own talent and determination, the Nascent Soul masters in the Immortal Sect, who are eager for the Shocking God Sonata, will undoubtedly spare no resources and will exhaust all efforts to cultivate her to Core Formation and even Nascent Soul Formation.

But if she can’t even get past this first checkpoint to the Cultivation path, it’s better to give up early and save resources.

“Of course, prodigies like you are indeed quite rare. Let me see if I can get word of your achievements to the principal. If he’s willing to intervene, getting the Purple Electric Sword will be no problem.”

Seeing the dazed look on Chen Mobai’s face, Che Yucheng thought he might have come on a bit strong with his previous words and added in a more pleasant tone.

“Master, you are overestimating me. I just work a little harder and happened to have a bit of fate on my side,” Chen Mobai replied humbly before bidding goodbye and leaving.
