I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1261: Chapter 693 Mysterious Heavy Water, Negotiations in Immortal City_2 Chapter 1261: Chapter 693 Mysterious Heavy Water, Negotiations in Immortal City_2 Two years ago, Luo Yixuan’s mother passed away.

Since then, in her heart, there was only Xiao Nanshan.

That’s why a simple compliment from Chen Mobai made her so happy.

Because that was all she cared about.

Chen Mobai thought that since he had nothing else to do, he might as well take Luo Yixuan to take a look at the planned course of the Dark Water river.

Within Rainbow Country, the sky was filled with sand!

However, thousands of years ago, this place was also full of green mountains and clear waters.

If one wished to combat desertification, Dark Water would need to flow through most of the territory of Rainbow Country, and these pathways needed to be combined with the local Spirit Veins.

Because the land here is flat and the sunlight ample.

If one were to develop it into Spirit Fields, it would directly be vast expanses, and during the times of sowing, tending and harvesting, one could directly use large-scale puppets, and a single cultivator could directly take care of hundreds or even thousands of acres.

According to Chen Mobai’s estimation, if the desertification was curbed, the entirety of Rainbow Country could be developed, and just the area of Spirit Fields would be equivalent to the combined thirty million acres of Sky Country and Rock Country.

However, Chen Mobai was planning to turn this place into the granary of the entire Eastern Wilderness so that cultivation would not be limited by Spirit Veins and more could be planted.

He intended to first plant ordinary rice that contained only a trace amount of Spiritual Energy, and through the unified Zhao Dynasty, provide it to all the mortals in the Eastern Wilderness.

Ten, twenty, thirty years…

After generations of people’s health improved through sufficient Spirit Rice, more and more children would be born with Spiritual Roots, moving closer and closer to what Chen Mobai envisaged as a Minor Immortal Gate.

Chen Mobai took Luo Yixuan and traveled through most of Rainbow Country, and thanks to efforts of people like Yan Yuanhao and Zhuo Ming, a complete defensive forest against desertification had already been established at the border.

The once endlessly advancing Boundless Sand Sea that eroded day and night was now kept outside of Rainbow Country.

With no external threats, what remained was to improve the environment inside Rainbow Country that had been eroded and turned to sand for thousands of years.

To achieve this step, water was essential.

That’s why Dark Water was crucial.

If Luo Yixuan could accomplish the opening of this Dark Water route, her merit in the future would not be much less than Zhuo Ming’s.

While they, master and disciple, were wandering through Rainbow Country, Jiang Zongheng also returned to Ming Nation with the Formless Puppet.

Zhou Ye soon received a letter personally replied to by Chen Mobai.

Three days later, Chen Mobai effortlessly entered Hunyuan Immortal City through the Teleportation Array that Feng Zicheng had betrayed to Jiang Zongheng.

When he stepped out of the Teleportation Array, a middle-aged man with a firm face and serious eyes was waiting.

This person was Chun Yusu, the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, a man of supreme skill and strategy of mind, and had previously been hailed as the cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness most likely to achieve Core Formation.

“Sect Master Chen, please this way!”

Upon seeing Chen Mobai, Chun Yusu’s face was complicated, and his eyebrows were deeply furrowed, but in the end, he still led him to meet Zhou Ye.

It was still that courtyard built around a lake where the refined and handsome Zhou Ye sat in the pavilion, accompanied by his beautiful maid, Green Pearl.

Upon seeing Chen Mobai’s arrival, a flash of surprise appeared in both of their eyes.

After all, Zhou Ye had refined the Chaotic Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder, and Chen Mobai’s daring to come here meant he was placing his life and death into the other’s hands.

But soon, Zhou Ye thought of something, and after probing with his Primordial Dao Fruit, he indeed discovered that the Chen Mobai who had arrived was just a puppet.

Zhou Ye raised his hand to signal Chun Yusu to leave.

Chun Yusu opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he bowed his head and stepped back.

“Sect Master Chen, meeting with a puppet seems insincere.”

Hearing Zhou Ye’s words, Chen Mobai smiled faintly and sat down opposite him of his own accord, then retorted with a question.

“If True Person Zhou were in my place, would you be willing to come in person for negotiations?”

“Of course not!”

Upon these words, both men looked at each other and burst into hearty laughter, while Green Pearl beside them was somewhat baffled.

Shouldn’t the two be archenemies at daggers drawn? Even if they didn’t come to blows, at the very least they should’ve exchanged a war of words and reprimanded each other.

Yet now, they seemed like two old friends catching up.

“Green Pearl, the guest has arrived. Why haven’t you served tea?”

True Person Zhou spoke, but Chen Mobai shook his head, indicating that he couldn’t enjoy it due to his puppet body.

“Let’s get straight to the point,” he said. “After taking down your Five Elements Sect, I still need to have Zong Heng attack both the Back to Sky Valley and the mortal kingdoms of the Snow-blowing Palace to unify the Eastern Wilderness.”

Chen Mobai’s words shocked True Person Zhou; though he had been contemplating the movements of the Divine Wood Sect these past days and had guessed this point, he was still very surprised to have it confirmed.

“Why would a person like you end up in my second senior brother’s Wood Vein? It’s as if the heavens are particularly fond of him!”

True Person Zhou’s words made Chen Mobai somewhat smug; after all, it was praise coming from the mouth of an enemy.

“I’ll state my demands first. The Primordial Dao Fruit is the bottom line.”

Since True Person Zhou didn’t want to speak first, Chen Mobai, with his huge advantage, didn’t hide his intentions either. After all, with the army stopped at Ming Nation, each extra day meant more consumption.

The Primordial Dao Fruit was crucial for his “Nascent Soul Formation” and was something he had to obtain at all costs!

As long as True Person Zhou agreed to hand it over, Chen Mobai felt that anything else was negotiable.

“Fine, the Five Elements Meridians are all direct transmissions from our Master. I will pass on the Primordial Dao Fruit to you, and it does not count as breaking the oath of Dao Heart that I made.”

True Person Zhou’s words made Chen Mobai frown.

He was so agreeable!?

“What are your demands, True Person Zhou?”

True Person Zhou smiled slightly and said something that made Chen Mobai nearly leap up in surprise: “Help me destroy the Dongwu Sun Family, and not only will I give you the Primordial Dao Fruit, but I will also leave the Hunyuan Immortal City and swear never to set foot here for the rest of my life.”

“I must decline!”

Chen Mobai refused emphatically.

Though the Primordial Dao Fruit was important, he would not wage a cross-border war over it.

Moreover, since the Dongwu Sun Family protected half of the territory of Cloud Dream Marsh, until Chen Mobai was absolutely certain he could slay the Poisonous Dragon, he definitely would not turn on his allies and engage in infighting.

“Other than this, I have no other desires.”

Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s refusal, True Person Zhou’s smile receded, and his tone became calm again.

Chen Mobai didn’t see any sign from True Person Zhou of seeing him out. Knowing he was testing the limits, he continued: “There’s a taste in seeking personal revenge. True Person Zhou, why not form your Nascent Soul first and then destroy the Dongwu Sun Family yourself?”

True Person Zhou: “What do you mean?”

Chen Mobai: “True Person Zhou, do you think that this Hunyuan Immortal City can stop my sect’s grand army?”

True Person Zhou: “It can’t, but to breach this Immortal City, surely my second senior brother would have to come. Could it be that you want to drag him down with you, solely to honor the Wood Vein?”

Chen Mobai: “True Person Zhou, you shouldn’t project your petty mindedness onto a man of honor. I merely mean to say, if this Hunyuan Immortal City is still left for your cultivation, and you remain the Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Earth Vein, would you accept that?”

True Person Zhou: “What do you intend?”

Chen Mobai: “Aren’t Sect Leader Yan Yuanhao and Sect Leader Sheng Zhaoxi examples? As long as True Person Zhou is willing to submit to our Wood Vein and acknowledge that our vein is the rightful way, not only can we avoid warfare, but you can also keep everything. From now on, our Five Elements Meridians will remain as close as brothers, sharing the same root and source. The Hunyuan Immortal City and the Fourth Grade Superior Spirit Vein here will still belong to you for your cultivation. You may even use the resources of our combined Five Elements Meridians to refine the Primordial Dao Fruit, and maybe you could even achieve Nascent Soul Formation in the future.”

Struck by these words, True Person Zhou was tempted: “All I need to give up is the Primordial Dao Fruit?”

Chen Mobai: “True Person Zhou, as the head of the Five Elements Earth Vein, submitting to our sect could damage your reputation.”

“A mere reputation is of no concern to me,” retorted True Person Zhou, now turning the tables with his conditions, “Will the Golden Core Cultivators of the other veins sacrifice their Spiritual Power to help me refine the Primordial Dao Fruit?”

Chen Mobai immediately shook his head after hearing this: “I won’t force them to aid you. After all, when it comes to cultivation, one must rely on oneself mostly.”

True Person Zhou: “If that’s the case, I do not feel the sincerity from Sect Master Chen.”

Chen Mobai: “This is me offering you a dignified way out, not me begging you.”

With that, True Person Zhou fell completely silent.
