I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1063: Chapter 581: Wishing to Acknowledge the Sect Leader as Foster Father_2 Chapter 1063: Chapter 581: Wishing to Acknowledge the Sect Leader as Foster Father_2 But what does this have to do with what we’re discussing now?

Chen Mobai looked at Yin Qingmei with a puzzled expression, as her pretty face suddenly turned red and she spoke again.

“Under such generational bindings, the Longevity Sect also decreed that descendants who join the sect can inherit their ancestors’ positions within the sect.”

Is there such a rule?

Chen Mobai expressed his confusion, thinking that after thousands of years, wouldn’t the entire Longevity Sect be filled with Saint Heirs, true inheritors…

When I get back, I can ask Elder Ming to see if there is such a statement.

As Chen Mobai was reflecting on this, Yin Qingmei seemed to muster her courage and directly knelt before Chen Mobai, performing a grand kowtow.

“If the Sect Leader doesn’t mind, I wish to acknowledge you as my foster father!”

While pondering, Chen Mobai’s mouth hung open in shock when he heard Yin Qingmei’s words, his expression was chaotic, as if he had no experience in such matters.

“This… this… this…”

Chen Mobai was left speechless.

With the many years of education he received in the Immortal Gate, he had never encountered such a situation. Even the term “foster father” had almost disappeared there, only to be seen in shows and dramas.

Moreover, it seemed that there wasn’t much difference in their ages!

If Yin Qingmei acknowledged him as her foster father, wouldn’t that make him seem old?

Is this the custom and culture of the Tianhe Realm?

Or does Yin Qingmei value the chance for Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots so much that she is willing to do anything?

Regardless, Chen Mobai was utterly confounded by the words “foster father” that came out of Yin Qingmei’s mouth.

One can only say that the cultivators of the Tianhe Realm, in their pursuit of the Dao and yearning for a higher realm, possess a determination that Chen Mobai, who grew up in the Immortal Gate, couldn’t understand.

All he originally wanted was to imprint on Yin Qingmei’s heart the preciousness of the Azure Jadeite Sycamore Tree, to make her treasure this Spirit Plant that could level up indefinitely.

The back-and-forth of words and expressions was merely to make Yin Qingmei pay more attention and remember that he had broken the rules of the Longevity Sect for her sake.

After all, Yin Qingmei, with her Heavenly Spiritual Root, was destined to reach Core Formation and perhaps even “Nascent Soul Formation” in the future. Chen Mobai needed this method to cultivate her loyalty to him and to the Divine Wood Sect.

But who would have thought that with just a few words from him, Yin Qingmei would already willingly kneel and call him foster father.

With limited experience and knowledge, Chen Mobai was at a loss on the spot.

Yin Qingmei, who had been kneeling and performing the grand kowtow for a long time without a response from Chen Mobai, felt an immense sense of loss and despair, thinking that she lacked the fate to use this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root.

“Sect Leader…”

But in the end, still clinging to a sliver of hope, she weakly murmured the two words.

“Sigh, since your heart is so devoted to the Dao, then I will fulfill your wish.”

Finally, Chen Mobai came to his senses amidst her timid call and quickly agreed.

“Foster father above, please accept your daughter’s bow…”

Seeing Yin Qingmei rise and prepare to kneel again for another grand kowtow, Chen Mobai immediately extended his hand to stop her, and spoke out against it. Growing up in the Immortal Gate, he was somewhat unable to accept this gesture.

“Sigh, let’s forget about acknowledging me as your foster father. As the Sect Leader of the Divine Wood Sect, I am also like half a mentor to you. Even if it breaks the internal rules of the sect, I will bestow upon you this opportunity of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots, hoping that this act can foster a great cultivator for the sect who can shield us from storms in the future.”

He voiced the thoughts that he had already planned.

In fact, if Yin Qingmei had waited a bit longer, he would have agreed anyway, but she was so direct.

“Sect Leader, your great kindness will forever be remembered in my heart, but as an ancient power, the Longevity Sect has rules set by the mighty. To avoid the risk of affecting your Dao Heart and future cultivation after breaking rules, I would rather address you as my foster father.”

Although Chen Mobai said this, Yin Qingmei felt she couldn’t be so tactless and allow the Sect Leader to bear the risk of violating the great sect’s rules because of her.

Her hands, poised for salutation, were held by Chen Mobai and couldn’t touch the ground, but with a supple move, she bowed her head to the ground, completing the grand kowtow.

“Foster Father, if I achieve success in my cultivation in the future, I will never forget the kindness you have shown me today by planting and bestowing treasures upon me.”

Chen Mobai’s lips twitched slightly, truly unaccustomed to the customs of the Tianhe Realm, but Yin Qingmei seemed to have made up her mind, showing no intention of changing her stance.

“You haven’t yet communed with this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root, what if the Biyu Wutong doesn’t accept you?”

Chen Mobai wanted to struggle a bit more, indicating that he didn’t want such a grown daughter.

It was clear that as a golden bachelor of the Immortal Gate, he had planned to engage in bitter cultivation until he could no longer break through his realm before he would consider starting a family and leaving descendants.

“Sect Leader, I have already communed with this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root. However, its weak spirit has informed me that it belongs to you, and only with your consent can it become my Destiny Spirit Plant!”

At this moment, having already reached out and communicated with the Biyu Wutong, Yin Qingmei turned her head, her face full of hope, looking at him with expectant eyes.

Indeed, this mere Rank-1 Spirit Tree, when faced with the symbiotic invitation of a Foundation Establishment Practitioner, wouldn’t refuse at all.

Chen Mobai sighed, he felt like he had shot himself in the foot, overplaying his hand.

“I agree. From now on, foster a good symbiotic growth with her.”

By this point, he definitely wouldn’t use words to pinch Yin Qingmei anymore, and he walked over to the trunk of the Biyu Wutong, touched it with his hand, and then used his Divine Sense to pass on this information.

This Spirit Tree, after all, was one he had watered and nurtured from the size of a palm seedling, his twenty years of cultivation kindness being as intimate as if basking in mutual radiance.

Now, presented with a greater potential for development, it didn’t forget to seek Chen Mobai’s consent.

And after he nodded, the Biyu Wutong no longer hesitated.

Its weak spirit began to merge with Yin Qingmei’s Divine Sense, and she immediately sat cross-legged at the base of the tree and started practicing the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture.

With Chen Mobai standing guard beside her, she wasn’t worried about danger at all.

Moreover, she wanted to grasp the opportunity offered by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root immediately, turning it into her Destiny Spirit Plant, fearing it might be a dream that would vanish upon awakening.

Chen Mobai watched Yin Qingmei, seated with hands stretched out to touch the bark of the Biyu Wutong Tree, and couldn’t help but be moved by her resolute and decisive spirit.

Within the Immortal Gate, only a very few had such a resolute will to seek the Dao regardless of all else.

This might also be because, in the Tianhe Realm, the chances of attaining the Dao were far too scarce.

After all, in the Immortal Gate, as long as the Cultivation Realm was sufficient, one could freely choose the most suitable cultivation technique for oneself.

But in the Tianhe Realm, even the entire Eastern Wilderness had not heard of a complete Divinity Transformation Technique.

Yin Qingmei, having encountered the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture and the legendary Heavenly Sovereign’s Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root, saw this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pursue the great Dao.

She regarded it as equal to the chance of becoming a disciple under a God-Transcending cultivator in the Eastern Earth Holy Land and was determined not to miss it.

Threads of extremely pure Longevity Spiritual Power surged from Yin Qingmei’s slender snow-white fingers, gently infusing into the deepest parts of the Biyu Wutong’s veined trunk.

With his Void Spirit Eye open, Chen Mobai saw the Biyu Wutong that was stagnant at the upper level of Rank-1, breaking through its bottleneck with the help of this Longevity Spiritual Power, showing potential for evolution to Rank-2.

“The spiritual energy here is insufficient, and since your future place of cultivation will be at the Giant Tree Ridge, it’s better not to break through here!”

Chen Mobai thought for a moment and then advised Yin Qingmei. She, with eyes closed, obediently nodded her head and began guiding the Biyu Wutong, which had communed with her, to solidify its foundation and complete the symbiotic process with her.

After about half a day, Yin Qingmei opened her eyes with slight panting, her hands leaving the Biyu Wutong.

“Thank you, Foster Father, for bestowing the treasure. This Spirit Tree is indeed a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root, capable of Unlimited Leveling Up!”

After the Commune Spirit symbiosis, Yin Qingmei, with her Foundation Establishment cultivator’s realm, could easily control the Biyu Wutong of only Rank-1 and immediately knew the utmost potential of this Spirit Plant. She couldn’t help but treat Chen Mobai with even more respect.

In the Tianhe Realm, even between biological father and daughter, probably only on their deathbed would such a shocking opportunity be passed down.

“Qing Mei, let’s forget about this ‘Foster Father’ title. After all, I am still the Sect Leader, and if Sect Disciples hear about this, my reputation might be affected!”

After considering, Chen Mobai still felt the need to correct this, and he spoke gravely and earnestly to persuade her.

“I understand, Foster Father. When others are present, I will call you ‘Sect Leader’!”
