Chapter 450: Chapter 322 War Outcome_2
Furthermore, seven are still unaccounted for and whether or not they are alive is unknown.
Even though the Divine Wood Sect is strong, this incident could be likened to a crippling wound.
“May the blessings of heaven keep them all safe and sound,” Chen Mobai exclaimed, before inquiring about the current situation between the two sects.
“As victors, our Divine Wood Sect should naturally recover our losses from the Shake Mountain Peak. Our two founding ancestors are currently negotiating with the Core Formation ancestors of the remaining four sects, with the aim to have Shake Mountain Peak compensate us with a small Spirit Stone Mine and two Miniature Lingshi Mines.”
This accounts for nearly half of the Shake Mountain’s assets. No one would willingly accept this.
However, Yue Zutao remarked that Dudan ancestors from Snow-blowing Palace and Back to Sky Valley, who had no intention of participating in the war, only wanted to save Ji Zhenshi’s life. Therefore, this matter was still negotiable.
“So basically, the war is over?” Chen Mobai asked. Yue Zutao nodded in agreement.
“If the Sect Leader can successfully establish his core, then even if Back to Sky Valley and Snow-blowing Palace enter the war, our Divine Wood Sect and the Golden Cliff would surely annihilate Shake Mountain Peak.”
After chatting for a while, suddenly, two Qi Cultivation disciples came up from downstairs.
“Master, it’s a relief to know you are well,” they said.
The visitors were Chen Mobai’s disciples, Liu Wenbo and Luo Yixuan. Under Yue Zutao’s care, although they had experienced several major battles, they had been able to safely survive.
However, their faces were very pale. Chen Mobai could tell that something was not right with them.
“The two disciples were affected by the strength of the Bead that Breaks Meridians. The toxic gas entered their bodies and may have damaged their foundation. The Alchemy Department is already preparing the antidote Spirit Pill. All sect disciples who participated in this war can get it for free.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s expression also darkened.
He signaled for his disciples to extend their arms so he could check their pulses. After inspection, he found that Luo Yixuan was only slightly weak and otherwise fine.
On the other hand, it seemed that Liu Wenbo’s vitality had been blunted, as if he had lost several years of his lifespan.
“Master, it may be because of the spell you maintained within me for a long time. When the toxic gas entered my body, my meridians instinctively produced a harmonizing yang energy, neutralizing some of it. So, I was not as badly affected as my fellow disciple,” Luo Yixuan quietly informed Chen Mobai through a sound transmission spell. Upon hearing this, light dawned on Chen Mobai.
“Brother Yue, I will take them back to the sect.”
Yue Zutao did not object and even personally escorted them out of Fang Market.
“Bear with it.”
Above the “Red Misty Cloud Silk”, Chen Mobai extended his fingertips and incorporated the Flame Lighting Technique into Liu Wenbo’s body.
A trace of dark energy suddenly surfaced on Liu Wenbo’s originally pale face, and then slowly seeped out, eventually dissipating into thin air.
“Thanks, Master.”
After the toxic gas in his body was expelled by the Flame Lighting Technique, Liu Wenbo coughed up a mouthful of black blood. However, his face instantly looked much better. He struggled to salute Chen Mobai, but was stopped.
“Rest well, this is a good opportunity for you. You previously consumed pills to improve your cultivation, making your foundation unstable. Now that this toxic gas has taken away two of your realm levels, it might end up being a blessing in disguise.”
Liu Wenbo, being born into a prestigious family, has basically been relying on medicine to practice cultivation till now. When he pledged allegiance to Chen Mobai, the foundation of his body was already fixed and the damage done by pills was deep. It was not easy to change this.
If things continued this way, even if he had the Foundation Building Pill, the chance of success would be very low.
However, the entry of toxic gas this time removed his level nine Qi cultivation, dropping him to level seven. There is a chance that this misfortune could be transformed into a blessing.
There are still three years before the next batch of Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms mature. He should have enough time to become a True Disciple.
“Master, I heard that brother Yu Lian also got your help, which allowed him to get the second place in the real transfer.”
On the way, Liu Wenbo sat cross-legged at the edge of the misty cloud, holding two Spirit Stones in his hand, trying to recover his cultivation level as soon as possible. After detoxification, Luo Yixuan took the opportunity to ask Chen Mobai various questions.
“The main reason is that he was able to rank among the top in the True Disciples. I wonder how many Foundation Building Pills Brother Zeng could prepare this time?”
At the beginning of the year, the alchemy department had already collected all the main and auxiliary ingredients needed to refine the foundation building pills. By now, the pills should be ready to come out of the oven. Last time, Zeng Woyou successfully made two of them. Here’s hoping this time wouldn’t be any lesser than the previous one.
“Had I known the sect would be making Foundation Establishment Pills this year, I wouldn’t have held back last year.”
As Luo Yixuan said this, her pale little face was full of regret.
“Even if you had gone all out, you still wouldn’t have been able to beat Yu Lian and Mu Yuan.”
Chen Mobai told her the truth. Initially, he thought that Luo Yixuan would argue back, but she just nodded seriously, a look of relief flashing across her face, as if she would believe anything he, her mentor, said.
The trio of master and disciples flew on the “Red Misty Cloud Silk” for half a month before they finally returned to Giant Tree Ridge.
Upon returning to the sect, Chen Mobai received some great news.
Zeng Woyou has succeeded in producing three Foundation Establishment Pills.
Mu Yuan, Yu Lian, and Li Yixian, the three true disciples, didn’t hesitate at all, rushing to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion to make requests for the exchange of Foundation Establishment Pills.
“I hope at least one of them would be successful. The sect has lost quite a few foundation establishment cultivators this time.”
Within the Reward Virtue Hall, Chu Zuoshu and Chen Mobai sat facing each other, the former sighed as he spoke.
As the inspector of the Reward Virtue Hall, Chen Mobai naturally had to report to Chu Zuoshu as soon as he returned to the sect. It was through him that he got the good news about Zeng Woyou’s success in refining three pills.
“Mu Yuan’s contribution points for the sect have been prepared by the Sect Leader; Li Yixian, as a true disciple of the puppet department, has also managed to scrape together enough somehow; only Yu Lian who has been cultivating at Shan Hongyi’s mountain gate for the past few years, hasn’t accumulated much. He gave the Silver Sky Thousand Absoluteness Sword Scripture to the sect in exchange for enough contribution points.”
Listening to Chu Zuoshu’s words, Chen Mobai was very surprised.
Cultivators in the Tianhe Realm view the inheritance of cultivation techniques as more important than their own lives.
For Yu Lian to give up the Silver Sky Sect’s cultivation technique for a Foundation Establishment Pill, not only did it help him earn contribution points, but it probably also expressed his loyalty to the sect.
Although Yu Lian’s second place standing among the true disciples wasn’t suspended thanks to Chen Mobai, the underlying potential problem still persisted.
After all, even though three Foundation Establishment Pills have been produced, none of them have been placed in the Spirit Treasure Pavilion yet. Until they are actually in someone’s hands, the situation can always change.
Recently, the disciple of the artifact refining department who ranked fourth among the true disciples has been trying to find ways to pull Yu Lian down from his position.
At this time, Yu Lian trading the Silver Sky Thousand Absoluteness Sword Scripture for contributions to the sect was undoubtedly a smart move.
According to Chu Zushu, the Sect Leader had already decided who would receive the three Foundation Establishment Pills.
It would be the top three True Disciples.
“Hall Master, do you know how many people in the sect can practice the Green Flames Sword Slaughter by using the sect’s Green wood evil?”
Chen Mobai asked another question. After the war, he deeply felt that his cultivation level was still too weak. If he could master the Sword Sha, he would not have to use a short teleportation talisman to escape when he encounters Ji Dingjin next time.
“Oh, has your Qingyang fire technique been fully developed?”
Chu Zuoshu had already witnessed Chen Mobai’s sword light on the battlefield. In order to master the Green Flames Sword Slaughter which is a part of the Divine Wood Sect’s Red Flame Sword Charm, beside being in the sword light realm, one also needs to fully develop the Qingyang fire technique. With this, they could condense the Green wood evil and eventually burn the evil with fire, bringing the power of the sword light to a higher realm.
“It should happen in the next few days.”
During his time in the immortal sect, Chen Mobai had not wasted any time. Using the spiritual energy of fire vein from the Treasure Trove, he had integrated Yue Zutao’s Qingyang fire seed into his own Qingyang fire.
In addition to getting the Pure Green Technique from the Talent Tree and making a breakthrough in his divine sense, the enhancement of his fire seed which originally would have taken several months has now nearly completed.
“Ever since Elder Fu condensed the evil, the quantity of Green wood evil has recovered over fifty years. It should currently be enough to condense twenty-one swords evil. However, Xie Yuntian has already reserved all of it, and I’m afraid it might be difficult to ask him to give some up.”

Chu Zuoshu was truthful and let out a sigh.
“Well, it seems I’ll have to find a way outside of the sect.”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai had no choice. After all, in terms of seniority, cultivation level, and even contributions to the sect, Xie Yuntian, the head of the sword training department, surpassed Chen Mobai, who had only established his foundation four years ago.
“But you’re mine, so I’ll find a way.”
Just when Chen Mobai had given up all hope, Chu Zuoshu gave a mysterious smile, resurrecting his hopes once again.
