I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2241: Chapter 1030: Overwhelmed with Emotion

After finishing his conversation with Chen Mobai, the Qing Shuang Sword Spirit turned and glanced at the curious Wenren Xuewei, then dove back into the sword.

”The sword spirit seems to have a good rapport with you.”

Wenren Xuewei knew how the Qing Shuang Sword behaved around Pei Qingshuang. For it to move even a little would be considered giving face, and manifesting the sword spirit to communicate was a privilege Pei Qingshuang never enjoyed.

”I am more approachable, plus I practice ’The Union of Differences,’ making it easier to communicate with magic artifacts, so most magic artifacts with spiritual essence in the Immortal Gate are willing to get close to me.”

Chen Mobai said without modesty, noting that within the Immortal Gate he had yet to encounter a magic artifact that disliked Spirit Stones.

The two continued drinking tea for a while before Chen Mobai used the Void Teleportation to return to the Hall of Orthodox Law.

The end of the year quickly arrived.

At the Kaiyuan Hall Assembly, seated at the front rows, Chen Mobai and Ying Guanghua chatted casually while observing the voting results displayed on the screen.

Although the Kunpeng Lineage opposed the proposal to perform the Shocking God Sonata, and despite the Kaiyuan Hall being under their jurisdiction, the proposal was rather impressively passed with overwhelming support from the Weapon Dancing, Patching Heaven, and Jumang Lineages, as well as the majority of the Scholarly Mansion.

More than eighty percent approval on the screen caused Ye Yune’s face to darken.

Beiming Master also frowned, but at this moment, they both abided by the Immortal Gate’s rules and accepted their loss gracefully.

Then, it was time for personnel transfers within the various departments of the Three Great Halls.

Most of these were routine, but the transfer of Wenren Xuewei from Kaiyuan Hall to the Hall of Orthodox Law, joining the Military Department, surprised many people, leaving them unsure of what the Weapon Dancing and Jumang Lineages were planning.

However, without objections from Ying Guanghua and Ye Yune, the transfer order passed easily during the Kaiyuan Hall Assembly.

Besides this, Chen Mobai also transferred his good buddy Ming Yuhua from the First Military Factory to the Military Department, where he would manage logistics and the maintenance and repair of war artifacts.

He had already discussed this with Ming Yuhua in advance, and it was to give him a chance to earn merits in the next war and exchange them for Infant Forming Spirit Medicine.

Ming Yuhua was very grateful, although he was reluctant to leave the factory he had been in for more than a century. Seizing this opportunity was advised even by the factory chief.

The major factories of the Immortal Gate, although having the recommendation privilege for exchanging Golden Elixir Spiritual Medicine, couldn’t influence the list for Infant Forming Spirit Medicine.

If Ming Yuhua wanted to ”Nascent Soul Formation” in the future, leaving the factory was his only choice.

Apart from him, Zha Jianbai and Bian Jingchun from the Dance Tool Dao Academy were also arranged by Chen Mobai to join the Military Department through job transfers.

Another good buddy, Yunyang Bing, was originally intended to be pushed up to the position of Director of the Sky Curtain Ground Network Management Bureau.

But the Patching Heaven side didn’t agree, as this position had always been under their lineage since Qian Xing.

Ying Guanghua signaled opposition from his lineage, while Ye Yune also felt that the Weapon Dancing Lineage currently handled many key departments, thus advising Kunpeng people to oppose.

Ultimately, Yunyang Bing lost the election by a narrow margin of three votes, leaving him only to serve as deputy director.

Chen Mobai only felt regret about this.

After all, he hadn’t achieved Divinity Transformation yet, so he couldn’t speak conclusively in the Immortal Gate.

After the Immortal Gate Assembly ended, the Xianwu Hall immediately held an internal meeting for the finance department.

The main discussion was about the big list of Infant Forming Spirit Medicine.

With the Nurturing Infant Elixir already refined, there were ten pills in total.

Regarding the Infant-Transforming Elixir, Yuan Xu had also received an order signed by the Three Great Halls, mobilizing resources from the Six Great Medicine Factories and the sea territory for refinement. With his level and the characteristics of the Guidance Book, a perfect success was certain, and they would be refined into eight pills.

Considering he was about to retire, Chen Mobai planned to finalize all eighteen allocations for Infant Forming Spirit Medicine during this meeting.

Ying Guanghua agreed since he also planned to retire, intending to focus entirely on Divinity Transformation preparation after experiencing the Shocking God Sonata.

His successor would be Gongye Zhixu since the Patching Heaven Lineage had no shortage of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

If Lan Haitian succeeded in ”Nascent Soul Formation” this time, he would be the future Head of Immortal Affairs.

Wenren Xuewei naturally attended this meeting as well.

Currently part of the Military Department, following Chen Mobai, the major leader, inside meant Gongye Zhixu couldn’t stop her.

After several days of verbal battles, the four lineages finally compromised with each other, determining the ownership of the eighteen Infant Forming Spirit Medicines.

”That’s the final list then,”

marked by the slightly undulating tone of finance minister Lan Haitian, the screen initially displaying a large list of dozens of names now only contained eighteen.

Once the Three Hall Masters nodded in agreement, this list was published with official seals on the Immortal Gate’s website.

Upon release, the site nearly crashed due to billions of visits.

Almost all cultivators in the Immortal Gate paid attention to this, possessing the desire to ”Nascent Soul Formation,” even if they were still Qi Practitioners.

Most names on the list matched public predictions.

For instance, Lan Haitian ranked first, followed by Zhongli Tianyu, Vice Hall Master Wen Lianshan from the Hall of Orthodox Law, Vice Hall Master Bo Xiangqian from the Xianwu Hall, Vice Hall Master Shi Miao from the Kaiyuan Hall, and others.

But there were also surprises, such as the eighteenth spot held by Yan Qiongzhi.

On publicly anticipated lists, she was well past the hundredth place, mainly because she wasn’t from the Four Great Daoist Sects.

However, despite widespread discussions, the public did not consider her selection shady.

After all, Yan Qiongzhi was somewhat renowned in the Immortal Gate.

Even if the younger generation was unaware of her, a bit of online searching would reveal her achievement in successfully developing the Domain during the Foundation Establishment stage, equating her with Lan Haitian, ranked first.

Additionally, she had participated with Yunhai Master in setting up the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation on Dragon God Star during wartime, establishing her merits.

Although her selection was unexpected, the public quickly accepted it.

However, those privy to the situation were puzzled by Yan Qiongzhi’s acquisition of the Infant Forming Spirit Medicine.

This was Infant Forming Spirit Medicine!

Based on what?

Especially those Perfect Core Formation cultivators who were not selected, they used all their connections to uncover the reason.

It’s said that no wall is proof against the wind, and soon all the specifics of Yan Qiongzhi’s acquisition of Infant Forming Spirit Medicine were revealed.

For example, she was added at the last moment before the list was finalized.

The ones who did this were the Hall Master of the Hall of Orthodox Law and the Head of Immortal Affairs.

As for why the two Hall Masters vouched for Yan Qiongzhi, a member of the Nature Studies Academy, no one dared to reveal.

There are some messages in the Immortal Gate that are never kept secret.

But when it involves those at the top, these messages remain eternally confidential; even those in the know keep their lips sealed, not daring to utter a word.

In the office of the Nature Studies Academy.

When Yan Qiongzhi saw her name on the official announcement of the Immortal Gate, she was stunned at her seat, unable to recover for a long time.

Although Yunhai Master informed her she had made the shortlist, and she had made every effort to communicate with Wenren Xuewei and Ye Yune, she didn’t hold much hope, merely assuring herself she had tried her best.

But now, an unexpected joy had befallen her.

At this moment, even the usually ice-cold Yan Qiongzhi felt her heart and mind shaken with joy.

Other teachers in the office couldn’t help but gather around, with younger ones even exclaiming in delight and cheering loudly.

Yan Bingxuan was equally pleased.

”How could it be? That I could get selected...”

Yan Qiongzhi’s muttering reached the ears of the others, who assumed she was just too happy, somewhat lost in her emotions.

But Yan Bingxuan suddenly realized something.

Just then, Yan Qiongzhi also turned to look at her.

Their eyes met, both of them simultaneously thinking of a person.

In the entire Immortal Gate, there was only one person capable of doing this and with the motive to do so.

In Yan Bingxuan’s heart, an immense, indescribable emotion suddenly surged. Her heart, hardened through a century of bitter cultivation, shattered and was entirely filled once more with the image of Chen Mobai, overflowing with gratitude.
