I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1606: Chapter 802: Meeting with Divinity Transformation_4

Chen Mobai corrected Pei Qingshuang’s words; he wasn’t arrogant to that extent.

Master Chengxuan wasn’t dead yet!

“Hehe, Committee Member Chen successfully achieved Nascent Soul Formation and can now be considered Ancestor Baiguang’s representative in the Immortal Gate. Perhaps that’s why even though Ying Guanghua is furious, he still has to treat you politely.”

Pei Qingshuang said with a smile. Although Ancestor Baiguang had been in seclusion for a long time and had not shown herself, as long as she was alive, the other members of the Immortal Gate did not dare to ignore her.

Previously, with Master Chengxuan in seclusion and Master Yuxiao of uncertain origins, the Weapon Dancing Sect did not have a true Nascent Soul to rely on publicly. Thus, Nangong Xuanyu dared to leverage the Heaven-Repairing Lineage to claim the title of Pure Yang Orthodoxy.

“Not at all. I was lucky to achieve Nascent Soul. I just hope that when I meet Leading Star Ancestor, I won’t suffer too much.”

Chen Mobai kept his humility in perspective.

While he could afford to be terse with Ying Guanghua, when facing Leading Star Ancestor, he would need to humble himself significantly.

After all, she was a living Divinity Transformation cultivator!

“By the way, since you’ve achieved Nascent Soul Formation, shouldn’t you return the Qing Shuang Sword to me now?”

At this moment, Pei Qingshuang revealed her actual reason for getting in the car.

Previously, Chen Mobai had borrowed the Qing Shuang Sword, claiming he needed it to condense Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Purple Brilliance Energy.

Now that he had successfully achieved Nascent Soul Formation, he clearly no longer required it.

“Well…”

Chen Mobai was certainly willing to return it, but he feared the Qing Shuang Sword might refuse. That would be awkward.

“Here’s the situation—during my Nascent Soul Formation process, the Purple Lightning Qing Shuang also took the opportunity to perceive the breakthrough opportunity. Currently, it is in the phase of spiritual growth, and it might need some time before it can return to you.”

Chen Mobai came up with an excuse, planning to postpone the matter for now.

He intended to report the situation regarding the Stat Fire to the Divinity Transformation Ancestor, obtain permission, and then see if he could use the Stat Fire as a bargaining chip to exchange the Qing Shuang Sword with Pei Qingshuang.

No one else in the Immortal Gate could withstand the Purple Green Divine Flame.

But Pei Qingshuang was different—she cultivated the Qingxiao Sword Canon, which originated from the Purple Green Demon Refining Heavenly Book. If Chen Mobai imparted to her the method for utilizing the Immortal Fire, she might have a real chance to master and use it.

“Breakthrough? The Purple Lightning Qing Shuang is advancing to Rank-5? As expected, you truly are the second-best sword cultivation genius in the thousand-year history of the Immortal Gate, second only to Ancestor Baiguang. The Qing Shuang Sword has been with you for just over a decade and has achieved something I couldn’t in nearly a century.”

Pei Qingshuang’s tone revealed initial joy, followed by disappointment.

“Not at all. Perhaps it’s because I treat the Sword Heart with sincerity, so the Purple Green Double Swords are willing to connect with my mind, support each other, and advance together…”

Chen Mobai replied humbly, knowing his swordsmanship talent was entirely bestowed by the Great Dao Tree’s empowerment and ultimately unrooted.

“Would you like to have dinner tonight?”

Before long, Hua Zijing drove Pei Qingshuang to her residence. However, instead of leaving the car immediately, she asked expectantly.

“I just achieved Nascent Soul Formation and need some time to stabilize my Realm, so perhaps not,”

Chen Mobai fabricated a reason to decline.

Recently, he had been spending nights with Meng Huang. Knowing that once Shi Wanyu and her daughter moved to Wangwu Cave Heaven, it would become inconvenient to meet with her, he was taking advantage of the current time to enjoy the warmth with the big star.

“Alright, next time then!”

Pei Qingshuang felt a tinge of disappointment as she opened the car door and left.

“Zijing, tomorrow the finance department should announce the names eligible for the Golden Liquid Jade Pill. Where do you plan to go for your Core Formation?”

Once only the two of them remained, Chen Mobai addressed his competent secretary.

“My hometown has a Fourth Grade Spirit Vein, and I’m deeply attached to the area. However, the Spiritual Energy there is only fourth-grade lower class. Still, with preparation involving Spirit Gathering equipment and formations, it should suffice.”

Hua Zijing had clearly thought about this for some time. Chen Mobai nodded in approval upon hearing it.

“I’ll call Yunyang Bing later. He’s accomplished in Spirit Gathering Arrays. When the time comes for your Core Formation, I’ll have him head over to assist.”

“Thank you, Superior!”

Hua Zijing’s voice carried deep gratitude.

“You’re my close aide; of course, I’d help you with this.”

Chen Mobai responded with a smile. Half an hour later, the two returned to the long-absent Sky-Mending Group.

“Welcome back, Superior!”

Within the Sky-Mending Group, Lin Yin, the deputy leader, was still present. Leading the leaders from various groups, she saw Chen Mobai at the entrance and immediately greeted him with a bow.

“Thank you for your hard work in my absence.”

Chen Mobai smiled at Lin Yin, knowing he had an agreement with Lan Haitian to assign her to Xianwu Hall upon his return.

Originally, Lin Yin viewed this as a promising step forward in her career.

However, now she felt that leaving the Sky-Mending Group might mean missing the greatest opportunity of her lifetime.

She had a sense that she wasn’t truly in Chen Mobai’s inner circle.

When either Hua Zijing or Zhuang Jialan succeeded in Core Formation, her position would inevitably be handed over. But with Chen Mobai’s achievement of Nascent Soul Formation, rumors were rampant that he was likely on the verge of Divinity Transformation.

Thus, Lin Yin found herself conflicted—leaning toward pledging allegiance to a potential Divinity Transformation cultivator, yet fearing that Chen Mobai might reject her.

“Welcome, Superior, to oversee our endeavors…”

A voice suddenly emerged—it was Wen Lianshan from the Department of Law Enforcement, who had just returned from Xianwu Hall. Upon hearing that Chen Mobai was present, he promptly came to pay his respects.

Nominally, Wen Lianshan was still Chen Mobai’s superior.

However, the Sky-Mending Group members and high-ranking officials from the Department of Law Enforcement accompanying Wen Lianshan felt this sense of propriety was natural.

“I’m just here for a quick look…”

After briefly exchanging words with Wen Lianshan, Chen Mobai proceeded to the Hall of Orthodox Law.

Today, Narcissus and Gongsun Jielu were both present.

“Nangong Xuanyu is now the Minister of Defense. However, with your Nascent Soul Formation, you’re qualified to take over my position as Deputy Hall Master. Would you like it?”

Gongsun Jielu straightforwardly asked, her eager gaze fixed on Chen Mobai.

She had long wished to relinquish this position and focus on preparing for her Nascent Soul Formation.

The end-of-year Kaiyuan Hall conference would be the ideal time to finalize this transition.

“Let me first pay my respects to the Ancestor,”

Chen Mobai didn’t immediately accept. He knew Narcissus was a lazy figure; if he did take the Deputy Hall Master title, any conflict with Nangong Xuanyu would likely consume much of his time on Hall of Orthodox Law affairs.

At the very least, he needed Wang Shuye to be brought forward as backup.

“Make it quick—originally, Nangong Xuanyu was planning to formally have me step down and inherit the Deputy Hall Master position during the year-end conference.”

Gongsun Jielu explained simply, describing the Heaven-Repairing Lineage’s existing plan for Nangong Xuanyu to overpower the Weapon Dancing Sect, claim the Pure Yang Orthodoxy banner, and succeed as Deputy Hall Master of the Hall of Orthodox Law.

Given Narcissus’s dislike for administrative work, the Deputy Hall Master would essentially wield full authority over the Hall of Orthodox Law.

“There’s no rush; I shattered Nangong Xuanyu’s Dao Heart, so he won’t have the face to force your resignation.”

Chen Mobai’s tone was utterly nonchalant.

Upon hearing this, Narcissus and Gongsun Jielu nodded in agreement.

After the recent battle at Little Red Sky, as long as Chen Mobai expressed opposition, the proposal for Nangong Xuanyu to take over as Deputy Hall Master during the Kaiyuan Hall conference would undoubtedly fail.

Afterward, Chen Mobai began cultivating within the fourth-grade courtyard allocated by the Housing Department.

Then, suddenly…
