I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2268: Chapter 1039: Connections in High Places (Part 3)

”This kid, could he really possess the Void Spirit Body?”

The Peach Blossom Sage recalled the rumors within the Immortal Gate, and couldn’t help but be startled.

But inwardly, she increasingly thought of matchmaking him with her daughter.

After leaving the Jumang Academy, Chen Mobai had just returned to Red Sandstone City when he received a message from Lan Haitian.

”Congratulations on your success in Nascent Soul Formation.”

Chen Mobai hadn’t been in contact with Lan Haitian for a long time. After seeing the message, he called back to congratulate him.

”Thank you, but I’ve just formed my Nascent Soul, while you are about to undergo Divinity Transformation. Thinking back to our first meeting in Red Sandstone City when you were just a high school student...”

Listening to Chen Mobai’s words, Lan Haitian was filled with emotion.

Though he was always amiable, he held himself in high esteem, thinking even Yan Qiongzhi, with whom he was often compared, was not his equal.

When Chen Mobai stood out with his remarkable performance during the entrance exam, Lan Haitian merely thought this young man might make a mark at Dance Tool Dao Academy.

But when they met again in Red Sandstone City, Chen Mobai had already reached Foundation Establishment, and effortlessly killed a cultivator from the Ascension Sect with a single sword. Lan Haitian felt that this person could succeed him, becoming the sharpest blade of the Patching Heaven Group.

However, Chen Mobai continually shattered Lan Haitian’s expectations.

Alone, he suppressed the greatest Foundation Establishment geniuses from the Four Great Daoist Sects and the Ten Great Academies over six decades, comprehended the path and formed his Golden Core, and even without the Infant Binding Three Spirits Medicine relied solely on a powerful foundation and exceptional talent to successfully form his Nascent Soul, now becoming without a doubt the foremost Nascent Soul cultivator in the Immortal Gate.

After his own Nascent Soul Formation, Lan Haitian understood more deeply how terrifying Chen Mobai’s talent truly was.

He, as one of those so-called geniuses, was only qualified to look up from the foot of the mountain to where Chen Mobai stood at the summit.

Others could not even see through the clouds shrouding the mountain peak.

”How difficult Divinity Transformation is, even I need the Immortal Gate’s resources to glimpse my path...” Chen Mobai remained very humble in front of truly talented people like Lan Haitian. He then asked about the information Lan Haitian had sent: ”It’s a pity about Congressman An’s failure in Nascent Soul Formation. Fortunately, we had another plan; otherwise, the Shocking God Sonata might not have been successfully performed.”

Lan Haitian had informed Chen Mobai about An Guanglei’s unfortunate withdrawal.

An Guanglei was one of the two Perfect Core Formation cultivators in the Arts Department who had been given the Infant-Accumulating Elixir.

Yet despite the full support of the Immortal Gate’s forces, and even with the Plum Blossom Sage personally calculating the auspicious day for his Nascent Soul Formation, he still failed.

”Ultimately, it’s a lack of talent. I’ve already informed the Three Extremes Sage to help treat Congressman An. Although he failed in forming his Nascent Soul, once he recovers, he can still contribute another strength to the Shocking God Sonata.”

Lan Haitian informed Chen Mobai about Xianwu Hall’s arrangements for An Guanglei, and Chen Mobai had no objections.

They then spoke of another cultivator who had transformed into the ”Asura Dharma Aspect.”

”Yuan Xu Sage stays by his side throughout, since it’s the first time for the Immortal Gate, they are cautious about any problems...”

After Nascent Soul Formation, Lan Haitian was designated as the next Head of Immortal Affairs, with objectives including the Shocking God Sonata and the next campaign, so Xianwu Hall’s various rights were gradually being ceded to him.

Organizing the Shocking God Sonata was the first significant task entrusted to him after his Nascent Soul Formation.

As the Orthodox Law Hall Master, Chen Mobai was no longer involved, but Lan Haitian still habitually sent updates and information to him. Previously, Chen Mobai had been secluded in the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion of the Tianhe Realm, so he hadn’t responded, but now that he was back, he took the opportunity to call.

”It’s hard work for Yuan Xu Sage. By the way, are you familiar with the Spirit Veins in the sea territory?”

After discussing the Shocking God Sonata, Chen Mobai asked Lan Haitian about the sea territory’s Spirit Veins. Although he had a good relationship with Narcissus, as she was now a Divinity Transformation Paragon, he wanted to be thorough in his inquiries before reaching out to her.

Moreover, given Narcissus’s laid-back nature, it would be challenging to have her organize things, so it was better to directly request a place with a Rank-5 Water Vein after determining the goal.

Lan Haitian, a graduate of the Kunpeng Daoist Institute, was well-versed in such matters.

”Thanks, next time I exit seclusion, let’s meet at Wangwu Cave Heaven for a meal.”

Chen Mobai reminisced about when he and Lan Haitian, both having just formed their Golden Cores, would sneak meetings every time they went to Wangwu Cave Heaven.

Back then, Lan Haitian’s underground work meant the meeting places were always very discreet.

Looking back, it was rather amusing.

”Pure Yang Master, you’re too kind, I should be the one treating you.”

After some pleasantries, the call ended, and Chen Mobai sent Narcissus a text, to which she soon called back.

”This is simple, I have a magic artifact containing the Spiritual Energy equivalent to a Rank-5 Superior Grade Water Vein. Come and get it...”

Narcissus thought of a better solution than she had expected. In fact, in the sea territory, cultivators from both the Kunpeng Daoist Institute and the True Spiritual Academy were already secluded for Nascent Soul Formation.

The only remaining place was where she resided, but she would never vacate it for Yan Qiongzhi, so she gave Chen Mobai a magic artifact instead.
