I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 939: Chapter 517: Core Formation Grand Ceremony Chapter 939: Chapter 517: Core Formation Grand Ceremony Time quickly arrived for Chen Mobai’s Core Formation ceremony.

He himself was not too fond of such high-profile events, but for the Eastern Wilderness, a sect announcing a Core Formation was equivalent to gaining another Sky-Pillaring White Jade Column, and they would wish to broadcast it so that the entire world knew.

As soon as the news of Chen Mobai’s Core Formation spread from Rock Country, Chu Zuoshu and others had already started preparing for the event.

After Fu Zongjue and Chen Mobai returned one after another, all that remained was to set a date.

In a leisurely manner, a month passed by.

“Back to Sky Valley’s congratulatory gift, two bottles of Rank-3 Spirit Pills, presented by Ye Bopei!”

“Snow-blowing Palace’s congratulatory gift, a pair of Water-Fire Spirit Jade, presented by Xue Ting!”

“Jian Country’s Snow Peak Bai Family’s congratulatory gift, eight taels of Snow Needle Immortal Bud…”

Chen Mobai sat upright on the dais in front of Divine Wood City where he had previously preached on Foundation Establishment, watching Chu Zuoshu, the Sect Leader, greet each visitor one by one, while a loud-voiced cultivator by his side announced each congratulatory visitor and their gifts, sparing him, the elder, from not recognizing them.

This was necessary, for Chen Mobai was famously known as a cultivator who practiced bitter cultivation, and aside from Xue Ting, he only knew the major families of Jian Country and some families he had come into contact with from Yun Country.

The sequence of arrivals at the Core Formation ceremony had been arranged in advance, and soon enough, the vast square was filled with seated guests.

“Five Elements Sect’s congratulatory gift, one Mountain Suppression Stone, presented by Kong Shanxu!”

With the arrival of the last guest—a cultivator with a square face and thick eyebrows—accompanied by Chu Zuoshu, all the esteemed guests for the Core Formation ceremony were present.

“I didn’t expect the Five Elements Sect would also send someone over,” Chen Mobai said, somewhat surprised; the relationship between the two sects was not quite deadly foes, but at the very least, they never dealt with each other.

“Congratulations to Elder Chen for the successful formation of his Gold Core, may you live for five hundred years!”

Accompanied by the congratulations and the rising of all guests, Chen Mobai also stood up with a hearty laugh, raising his cup of wine and downing it in one gulp.

Then, the customary sermon began.

A Golden Core cultivator was expounding upon the insights and experiences of Foundation Establishment, a chance that cultivator families in the entire Eastern Wilderness probably wouldn’t have in their lifetimes, so everyone listened with respectful expressions, completely focused, afraid to miss a single word.

Chen Mobai was now a master of lecturing, after all, he had the rich experience of teaching at the Immortal Gate.

Kong Shanxu from Five Elements Sect and Ye Bopei from Back to Sky Valley both had normal expressions at first, but after listening to the beginning, their eyebrows raised, and as they listened intently, their eyes were filled with shock.

Such numerous details within the realm of Foundation Establishment!

By the end, everyone was listening so intently that they almost seemed enchanted, and by the time they came to their senses, the Elder Chen on the high platform had already ceased his explanation.

Is it over just like that?

“Having heard Elder Chen’s explanation, I still have many doubts; may I ask for guidance?”

This was said by Ning Leshan from Golden Cliff, and it was also arranged in advance. Chen Mobai smiled and nodded his head.

“Today you have all come to attend my Core Formation ceremony, which means we are fated to meet. I will randomly choose three individuals to answer one question each.”

Upon hearing this, the cultivators present brightened up, wishing that Chen Mobai would choose them.

However, the three individuals had been arranged in advance, with Ning Leshan following Xue Ting.

As for the third, Chen Mobai glanced over and eventually pointed at Liu Jingxian, the Foundation Establishment elder from the Liu family of Yun Country.

“Why did Elder Chen choose him?”

Cultivators who were unaware of the background started discussing amongst themselves, but soon someone provided the answer.

Elder Chen’s Eldest Disciple hailed from the Liu family of Yun Country; Liu Jingxian getting this opportunity was clearly due to Liu Wenbo’s influence.

Liu Jingxian was not highly cultivated, merely at the peak of the early foundation stage. At 167 years old, he didn’t have much time left to live, but because of the emergence of Liu Wenbo from his family, he was not worried about his successor at all.

Especially after Chen Mobai’s Core Formation, their Liu family could now be considered a direct lineage of a Gold Core.

And being chosen by Chen Mobai after the Core Formation ceremony, Liu Jingxian looked even more radiant, as if he had rejuvenated by a decade. He raised the issue that he had encountered in his cultivation, wanting to know how to break through the bottleneck that had troubled him for decades.

After inquiring about Liu Jingxian’s cultivation technique and examining his Spiritual Root, Chen Mobai presented three methods for breakthrough.

“Thank you, Elder Chen, for your guidance.”

With Liu Jingxian’s sincere words, Chen Mobai nodded and was about to conclude the day’s Core Formation ceremony.

Suddenly, his expression turned solemn, and he looked up at the sky.

A resplendent golden Jade Bridge extended from the distant horizon, with a straight-backed youth in a golden robe, hands behind his back, standing at the forefront of the bridge, flying towards the airspace above Giant Tree Ridge.

A Golden Core Cultivator!

Without a word, from the surging of nature’s spiritual energy around them, everyone discerned the cultivation level of the newcomer.

“Who approaches!”

A beam of Spiritual Light rose from one of the Everlife Woods at the center of Giant Tree Ridge, and the figure of Fu Zongjue appeared, confronting the youth in the golden robe, his expression stern.

“I am Xuan Shu, here to extend my congratulations to True Person Chen on his Core Formation.”

The youth in the golden robe had an ordinary appearance, but his demeanor was exceptionally lofty. He stood upon the Jade Bridge, with the flow of air around him creating a faint roaring sound.

“The Saint Heir from Xuan Xiao Dao Palace!”

Upon hearing this, Fu Zongjue couldn’t help but feel shock in his heart.

In his youth, he coincided with Xuan Shu, except the latter was the most dazzling genius of that era, unrivaled throughout the East Barbarians, with a reputation so great that even within the Eastern Wilderness, it was illustrious.
