I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 619: 398

“Does anyone else know about this matter?”

Chen Mobai asked Yu Lian, as he watched the bright yellow talisman paper, his expression remained usual.

“No, only I know.”

Yu Lian reassured with a firm expression, stating that no one else saw the talisman paper when he got it.

“The Void Mysterious Stone Mine is the most valuable resource of our sect. It’s best not to have any unforeseen circumstances.”

Chen Mobai suddenly said something meaningful that left Yu Lian somewhat confused.

“Could Chen Senior Brother enlighten me?”

“You are now a part of the Spirit Vein Department. During your performance review, submit this talisman paper as well. The Spirit Vein Department will report this matter, the Sect Leader will undoubtedly meet you. You need not hide anything, just truthfully report everything you know.”

After Chen Mobai spoke these words, Yu Lian pondered for a moment, then his expression became enlightened.

“Senior Brother’s foresight is far greater than mine. If not for your guidance, once this matter was exposed, I would be in an extremely difficult position in the sect.”

“We should always act upright and proper. In any situation, our first thought should be to report to the higher-ups of the sect. After all, if the sky were to fall, our two ancestors would be there to hold it up. Be sure not to be too smart for your own good.”

Chen Mobai always behaved upright and proper, after all, he had never done anything dishonest.

Madam Guo likely tried to tempt him with this Rank-3 Lotus Lamp, but Chen Mobai himself owns a Rank-3 Magic Artifact, and he might even get to control a Rank-4 sword artifact in the future, so he really has no interest in the magic artifacts of the Tianhe Realm.

If he could thoroughly acquire the Five-Colored Lotus Lamp, Chen Mobai would naturally be willing.

But if he has to take the slightest risk because of it, it’s absolutely not acceptable.

This matter also relates to the Void Mysterious Stone Mine, which are assets that the two ancestors care the most about at this stage.

Furthermore, he found the lamp stand of the Five-Colored Lotus Lamp in the storage bag of the Yinming Messenger from Huangquan Road. If this really involves Ghost Cultivators, it’s better to clear himself of this matter.

With Chen Mobai’s guidance, Yu Lian reported the matter about the talisman paper and Madam Guo to the Vice Minister of the Spirit Vein Department, Deng Dajin, during his performance review the next day.

As the Minister of the Spirit Vein Department, Ma Gang, was leading the disciples to mine Void Stones for the past two years, Deng Dajin was the one in charge of the Spirit Vein Department.

Since the matter was about the Void Mysterious Stone Mine, Deng Dajin had no hesitation and directly took Yu Lian to Shenmu Hall to report it to Chu Zuoshu.

Not long after, a spiritual talisman summoning Chen Mobai arrived.

“I won’t be back tonight.”

Chen Mobai instructed Luo Yixuan, before he himself went to Shenmu Hall.

“Junior Brother Chen, do you know Madam Guo?”

“I’ve never met her, but I saw with my own eyes that she was killed by Senior Brother Feiming, however, her corpse mysteriously disappeared after the battle. I have reported this to the previous Sect Leader, Meng Hong.”

Chen Mobai told the truth, Zhou Shengqing himself had personally gone to Lonely Spirit Ridge at that time, but he didn’t find anything unusual.

“Do you know what is on this talisman paper?”

Chu Zuoshu trusted Chen Mobai, so after asking that, he directly moved on to the main point, unfolding the bright yellow talisman paper that Yu Lian had handed over.

“I do. It’s the artifact that Senior Brother Feiming used, which I now possess.”

Chen Mobai took out the complete Five-Colored Lotus Lamp from his storage bag.

“Oh, the artifact that Junior Brother Chen has is even more complete than the one drawn on the talisman paper.”

After carefully comparing the two, Chu Zuoshu noticed the difference. The lamp on the talisman paper didn’t have a stand.

“I found this lamp stand in the storage bag of the Ghost Cultivator I killed. It matched perfectly with the lamp. However, at first, this lamp stand appeared at the auction of the Star Heaven Chamber of Commerce… Could this be related to the Ghost Cultivator from Huangquan Road?”

Chen Mobai was completely loyal to the sect; he reported the matter of the Five-Colored Lotus Lamp to Chu Zuoshu without any concealment.

Chu Zuoshu’s face turned solemn after hearing it.

“I will report this to the ancestors.”

As the matter concerned Huangquan Road, Chu Zuoshu was uncertain and could only report it to Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue again.

Soon, the two ancestors descended in the Shenmu Hall.

“This is… a Soul Summoning Lamp?”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shengqing recognized the Five-Colored Lotus Lamp and, with a trace of hesitation, said. Chen Mobai immediately respectfully handed it to him for a closer look.

“No mistake, it should be the Soul Summoning Lamp, a must-have for transforming into Ghost and Corpse Cultivators.”

After both Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue inspected it, they confirmed the origins of the Five-Colored Lotus Lamp and nodded in agreement.

Cultivators at the end of their lifespan, some of them deeply reluctant to undergo reincarnation, decide to tread the path of evil.

Among these, Ghost and Corpse Cultivation are evil methods that allow one to keep their Divine Sense and forcefully remain in the world.

However, the success rate of transforming from a Qi Practitioner into a Ghost or Corpse Cultivator is extremely low.

After countless experiments by many Cultivators, the artifact, Soul Summoning Lamp was researched and created.

Before transforming into a Ghost or Corpse Cultivator, one’s soul is hidden in the lamp, maintaining the imperishability of the Heart Flame, Soul Spirit, and Divine Sense.

For instance, Feiming was able to endure the long process of his flesh transforming into a zombie because of this Soul Summoning Lamp.

“This thing is invaluable for those old guys.”
