Chapter 288: Chapter 252: Dividing the Treasure_l
Just as Chen Mobai was watching the flow of spiritual energy in Xiao Nanshan’s sixty acres of fertile land, Zhuo Ming, who had received his sound transmission talisman, had already arrived.
“Greetings, Master.”
Zhuo Ming came with a straw hat on her head, a bamboo basket slung over her right arm, and bare feet. Despite her feet being fair and clean, Chen Mobai could see that the hems of her trousers were speckled with mud.
It seemed that when she came over, she was barefoot in the field, checking the newly planted seedlings.
After receiving his summon, although she had washed her feet, the rolled up hems of her trousers were still wet, indicating the signs of her recent busyness.
“Stand up, you have been working hard these days.”
Chen Mobai was very pleased with his disciple. Although many in the Divine Wood Sect could not understand why this promising genius had chosen an ordinary Qi Cultivation disciple, had he chosen someone with Heavenly Spiritual Roots and asked him to plough the soil and nurture seedlings, he certainly wouldn’t have found such an obedient and diligent disciple as Zhuo Ming.
Putting all else aside, if he had asked his eldest disciple, Liu Wenbo, to farm, although he would not refuse, he would certainly have his reservations.
Sometimes, disciples like Zhuo Ming, who come from a hardship-borne Loose Cultivator background, are better behaved and more understanding.
“It’s not hard work, especially since it helps my cultivation.”
Zhuo Ming got up and showcased her cultivation of the Mother Earth Scripture. In half a year, she had reached the third level of Qi Cultivation.
Chen Mobai nodded, asked her some questions concerning cultivation. Having twice undergone the process of changing the Qi Cultivation Technique, he was very familiar with it.
Although converting Wood Attribute spiritual power into Earth Attribute entails first transforming it into Fire Attribute spiritual power, thereby inevitably resulting in partial loss of spiritual power.
However, Zhuo Ming, due to her excellent Earth Spirit Root, and the earth energy from the sixty-acre Spirit Field, had compensated for the lost Longevity Spiritual Power and even made her experience a rapid increase in levels and a breakthrough for the first time.
The reason why she only managed to recover to the third level of Qi Cultivation in half a year is not because she lost too much during the transition but because she deliberately suppressed her progress.
In actual fact, there is still 70% of the unconverted Longevity Spiritual Power in Zhuo Ming’s Dantian Qi sea.
“Mmm, the fact that you can maintain a calm and steady attitude will increase your chances of successful Foundation Establishment in the future.”
Chen Mobai felt Zhuo Ming’s pulse, probed the state of the spiritual power in her body, and nodded with satisfaction.
Even though all cultivators are at Qi Cultivation Perfection and have the aid of Foundation Building Pills, why is it that of the 24 true disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, only a handful can successfully establish their foundations?
The gap is in these details.
Understanding of Cultivation Technique, refinement of spiritual power, nurturing of the spirit and so forth. If there is a flaw in any of these aspects, it may prevent successful Foundation Establishment.
“Greetings, Master.”
As the Teacher and Disciple were discussing about sowing and transplanting seedlings, Liu Wenbo, who had received the news, arrived.
“Come, follow me up.”
With both disciples present, he could proceed with the division of treasures.
Arriving at the wooden house at the peak of the mountain, Zhuo Ming immediately went in and brought out a chair. Chen Mobai took the seat without delay.
“During my retreat, I made some progress in Sword Dao….”
“Congratulations, Master.”
Without Chen Mobai completing his sentence, both disciples were already beaming with joy, more excited than he was.
However, this was understandable as in the Tianhe Realm, the master-disciple bond is even more intimate than the blood bond.
A high-ranking cultivator lives for hundreds or even thousands of years. The longer one lives, the distant their relatives and descendants become, and disciples who remain by their side often become closest.
“These Magic Artifacts were used by me during my Qi Cultivation period. I no longer need them, so I am giving them to you guys.”
Chen Mobai didn’t beat around the bush. He was going to the Treasure Trove tomorrow and time was running out so he got straight to the point.
With a sweep of his large sleeve, four spiritual lights flew out, landing in front of each disciple.
Zhuo Ming received a dark golden needle box and a wooden umbrella, while Liu Wenbo was presented with a green kerchief and a brass ring.
Both disciples were even more delighted, but they seemed somewhat embarrassed.
“You can both have them.”
“Thank you, Master.”
Following Chen Mobai’s words, both disciples gleefully accepted the Magic Artifacts in front of them.
“Wen Bo, your Green Kerchief is a Rank-1 intermediate grade Defensive Magic Weapon. It can be controlled by a very simple method, all you need to do is inject it with spiritual power.”
“However, this brass ring is one of the things that contributed to my success in the Sword Dao Realm.”
“Today, I am giving it to you in hopes that you too will achieve success in Sword Dao.”
With that, Chen Mobai explained the history of the Casting Sword Ring to the two.
Learning that it was a secret treasure for Sword Training passed down by Golden Cliff, Liu Wenbo could not help showing a moving gesture, and excitedly paid his respects to Chen Mobai.
This was a lineal inheritance!
Chen Mobai really regarded him as a true disciple.

“Stand up, however, one’s progress in Sword Dao depends on their talent. Your main goal now is still to achieve Perfection in Qi Cultivation and strive to get a good ranking in this year’s sect competition.”
With a wave of his hand, Chen Mobai pulled Liu Wenbo up using his spiritual power.
During the sect competition at the end of last year, although Chen Mobai was meeting with friends and relatives in Red Sandstone City, he took two days off to watch the competition in Divine Wood City and had a few drinks with Qi Ruiyuan and Chi Ye, his old friends.
Unfortunately, Liu Wenbo’s accumulation was not enough, and he was eliminated before the final two rounds of the competition.
Since the disciples who were deemed true disciples by the previous generation all took the Foundation Building Pill when the Divine Tree Secret Realm was opened. The ones who failed had no choice but to go out and fight for the position of True Disciple once again. That is why last year’s Sect competition was more intense than the previous ones.
