I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1059: Chapter 579: Returning to the Great Dao Tree_2 Chapter 1059: Chapter 579: Returning to the Great Dao Tree_2 This was the best choice, but if Zhou Shengqing hadn’t taken the initiative to mention it, the two of them wouldn’t have brought it up at all.

Regrettably, after Yin Qingmei returned to the sect, she sat quietly in front of the Everlife Wood for a month, yet she failed to receive any response whatsoever.

This meant that the Everlife Wood was unwilling to become her Destiny Spirit Plant.

Latter, Yin Qingmei tried to communicate with some Rank-3 Golden Sun Spirit Trees at Giant Tree Ridge, and only a very few responded; most ignored her altogether.

Chen Mobai asked Elder Ming about this, and she said it was a normal phenomenon: Spirit Plants inherently had weak sentience and were among the most difficult beings to achieve dao.

Many of them could not understand the meaning of what is called symbiotic evolution.

From their birth, what is etched deep within their souls is the unceasing quest to absorb water and nutrients to grow. As for the so-called symbiosis with human cultivators, they would only instinctively weigh the pros and cons.

In the eyes of a Rank-4 Everlife Wood, a mere Foundation Establishment practitioner, once bound in symbiosis, would only end up parasitizing on it, siphoning its nutrients and energy to bolster themselves, offering no benefits to the tree at all.

The Rank-3 Golden Sun Spirit Trees felt the same way, with only a rare few in their twilight years or those who had just leveled up, sensing the pure and rich Wood Qi within Yin Qingmei, and thinking it possible to advance further with her in symbiosis, hence they responded.

Yin Qingmei was very disappointed by this, yet she still hoped to follow Chen Mobai into the Divine Tree Secret Realm to try with the other three Everlife Woods.

“Meditate beneath this tree, and remember not to wander around aimlessly.”

Chen Mobai activated the Wooden Sword key bestowed by the sect’s inheritance to open the Divine Tree Secret Realm and took Yin Qingmei to the Magic Treasure Tree first, inviting her to calmly attempt to communicate there.

After leaving her there, Chen Mobai took advantage of the time to check on his Green Paulownia Seedling that he cultivated in this place.

He had planted this Spirit Plant here for over twenty years now, and it had been encircled by a Spirit Gathering Array he had set up. Beneath the rich Spiritual Energy and vapor, it had already grown into a towering tree over ten meters high.

There used to be a Devouring Heaven Serpent here, but Chen Mobai took it out one day and placed it in his Longevity Wood Dojo. Zhuo Ming would come to feed it when she had time.

Every once in a while, the head of the Spirit Beast Department, Ma Wuniang, would also make a special trip to check on the growth of the Divine Snake of Elder Chen and even concoct some food suitable for the growth of snake species.

Compared to its former diet of just leaves, the Devouring Heaven Serpent was now thoroughly enjoying itself, lethargically coiled on the branches of the Everlife Wood, basking in the sun.

This was the advantage of being a patriarch; Chen Mobai merely had to give the order, and there were plenty of people below to take care of these trivial matters for him.

If not for the fact that the Divine Tree Secret Realm was exceptionally suitable for the growth of Divine Wood, Chen Mobai would even have considered transplanting the Green Paulownia Seedling to Giant Tree Ridge for Zhuo Ming, a specialist, to take care of it.

Now it could no longer be called a seedling, but a Phoenix Tree Spirit Tree.

This Spirit Tree had huge potential, but under Chen Mobai’s laissez-faire approach, it didn’t grow quickly. Even in these highly favorable conditions, after more than twenty years, it was still only a top-grade Rank-1.

To the current him, this Spirit Tree was really of no use, and he was even thinking that if Yin Qingmei was willing, he could give her the Biyu Wutong.

After all, in the Tianhe Realm, he had not heard of any Spirit Plant that could level up indefinitely.

Having checked the Biyu Wutong, Chen Mobai buried a few Spirit Stones into its roots and continued to leave it to grow wild in the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

He then went to the lumberyard he had set up in this area.

The Puppet factory at the Immortal Gate took many Spirit Woods that were chopped down from here. Chen Mobai had crafted some Puppets that continuously chopped, transported, and stacked wood day and night in this place.

When he had time, he would come here to transport these Spirit Woods to the factory at the Immortal Gate using Turtle Treasure.

After a decade and a half of relentless chopping, what used to be a dense and verdant forest now had a conspicuously bald patch.

However, as the Saint Heir of the Longevity Sect and Sect Leader of the Divine Wood Sect, the Divine Tree Secret Realm was now his own property to chop as he pleased.

After all, earning Spirit Stones to buy resources for cultivation was his top priority for now. When he no longer cared for Spirit Stones and Good Deed Points in the future, Chen Mobai would start to protect the Spirit Wood resources.

In this bald area, two Qingyang Spirit Trees still stood tall and noticeable among the rest.

The Puppets here were only Rank-1 and were incapable of chopping down Rank-2 Spirit Woods.

Chen Mobai personally took action and chopped down the two Qingyang Spirit Trees.

After so many years of exploration, his puppet factory had achieved balance between the Immortal Gate and the Eastern Wilderness.

Ninety percent of the products were listed in the Little Nan Mountain Shop, with only the remaining ten percent being sold at the Immortal Gate. After deducting the expenses and loans for his two factories, he could still earn about twenty million Good Deed Points each year.

Although compared to other Golden Core Masters, his earning speed could only be considered above average, all of Chen Mobai’s cultivation resources were obtained from the Eastern Wilderness, so these Good Deed Points were increasing day by day, as long as there were no expenditures.

Just wait until he accumulated a billion, and then he would buy a Void Blind Box to open.

After a hard half-month of work, having sent all the spirit wood accumulated in the logging field to the Immortal Gate, Chen Mobai, carrying a million talisman papers produced by his puppet factory in the first half of the year, returned to the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

When he flew to the Talent Tree, he saw Yin Qingmei with a worried and frowning face.

“Sect Leader, can you give me some more time?”

According to Chen Mobai’s thinking, if she could refine either the Talent Tree or the Magic Treasure Tree in the Divine Tree Secret Realm into her Destiny Spirit Plant, then the inheritance or treasures hidden within could all belong to the Divine Wood Sect.

But the ideal is beautiful, while reality is cruel.

“I’ll take you to another Everlife Wood location.”

Chen Mobai still gave Yin Qingmei one last chance, taking her to where the Talent Tree was, and also took out a plate of stir-fried bamboo shoots he had prepared earlier.

Although Yin Qingmei was confused, she obediently finished the plate of bamboo shoots.

“You can try touching the Talent Tree again, maybe there will be an unexpected gain.”

These jade bamboo shoots could enhance a Wood Spirit Root, and Yin Qingmei’s spiritual power had also been converted, so it was very possible that, just like him, she could pluck some benefits from the Talent Tree.

After hearing Chen Mobai’s words, although Yin Qingmei still did not understand why she had to eat bamboo shoots, she knew the Sect Leader was looking out for her best interest and immediately showed her gratitude with a deep bow.

“Cultivate well here, and I’ll come to pick you up in half a month.”

Chen Mobai took the opportunity to explore the vicinity of the Great Dao Tree.

Of course, he would not take risks in person.

It was still the old method, driving a Formless Puppet with his Divine Sense.

With a feeling of inexplicable emotion, Chen Mobai once again saw the towering Great Dao Tree that stretched into the clouds.

After many years, it was still deeply rooted and lush, and its strong and resilient trunk that seemed as tough as steel, now bore a deep sword mark that wasn’t there before.

It was made by the Purple Electric Sword!

After observing for a while, Chen Mobai, driving the Formless Puppet, approached the Great Dao Tree.

With the Divine Sense of his current Golden Core Stage, this puppet could unleash its maximum power, but he carefully controlled the Formless Puppet to stop at just ten steps, being very cautious.

However, the Great Dao Tree seemed to sense that he still had reserve strength, and didn’t respond.

Chen Mobai’s true form, watching from a distance, slightly furrowed his brows, then released the Spiritual Barrier of the Formless Puppet, allowing the suppressive might of the Great Dao Tree to impact it, showing that his Divine Sense was beginning to dissipate.

Soon after, a piece of green leaf fell from the Great Dao Tree, making contact with the Divine Sense within the Formless Puppet.

A vast and majestic thought merged into it, forming the words that Chen Mobai had long dreamed of hearing.

[Ten steps before the Great Dao Tree, a high-quality achievement, qualifying as a True Disciple of the Longevity Sect.]

[A True Disciple may be empowered with a higher realm of Grand Spells. Please choose the Grand Technique you wish to sense and comprehend.]

He could pluck the benefits again!

The distant true form of Chen Mobai, feeling the information transmitted from the Divine Sense inside the Formless Puppet, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
