BXBX NOVEL Chapter 235 - 231 Xiao Nanshan l
After Yuan Chiye went into seclusion for his Foundation Establishment, Chen Mobai inquired E Yun about the Divine Tree Secret Realm.
“This is a secret passed down orally in our Divine Wood Sect, now that you’ve reached Foundation Establishment, there’s no harm in telling you.”
“It is said that the Divine Tree Secret Realm was left behind by an ancient cultivator. The True Monarch Yuanyuan once entered it and, after acquiring the greatest opportunity, it should have collapsed and disappeared.”
“However, the True Monarch, out of compassion for all beings, felt that future cultivators should be given an opportunity. Hence, he painstakingly transplanted three Divine Trees and connected them to the Spirit Vein of the Giant Tree Ridge, reinforcing this Secret Realm, and even left behind an entrance that can be opened.”
“After you enter, there will be three paths, each representing a different type of test. The opportunity you get depends on this.”
E Yun no longer treated Chen Mobai as an outsider, revealing the secrets passed down from the foundation of the Divine Wood Sect.
Chen Mobai had no idea about ancient cultivators, Secret Realms or Divine Trees.
However, True Monarch Yuanyuan was quite well-known.
He was the most recent Ascended Monk in the Tianhe Realm. Since the Divine Tree Secret Realm had some association with him, the things inside must be extraordinary.
“What exactly are the three tests?”
Chen Mobai asked again, the more he knew, the better prepared he could be.
E Yun chuckled.
“Dao, Legal treasures, Talent!”
“Can you explain each of them?”
E Yun didn’t know the exact answer to this question, so he shook his head and simply shared his own experience.
“After entering the Secret Realm, all you need to do is show your true nature and advance in any of the three directions.”
“I fainted in front of the Dao tree, obtained the Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf from the Legal treasures tree and from the Talent tree, I got an Ancient Method scroll.”
“Back then, when the three of us brothers entered the Secret Realm, Zhou Wangshen and I quickly passed out in front of the Dao tree. But when we passed out, our senior brother Hong He was still marching forward steadily, he may know something.”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai thanked E Yun.
In a competitive environment like the Tianhe Realm, E Yun’s ability to generously share his experience and insights showed immense generosity.
“Is Senior Brother Hong He at the Giant Tree Ridge? Would it be inconvenient for me to visit him?”
In the end, Chen Mobai naturally asked a question.
As for this outstanding head disciple of the previous generation, who was deemed as his equal, Chen Mobai always wanted to meet him.
“Well…after Senior Brother Hong He’s Foundation Establishment, he’s been in the Yun Meng Ze and hasn’t returned. If you want to see him, you might have to look for him in Yun Meng Ze yourself.”
Hong He is vastly different from Zhou Wangshen and E Yun. His temperament is solitary, but his talent is extraordinary, proficient in Body Forging, Sword Training, Formations, and Puppets.
Just like Chen Mobai, they both are focused on cultivation.
Yun Meng Ze is regarded as the most precious land in the Eastern Wilderness. Confident cultivators will choose to stay there for a long period of time.
After all, the major merchants from Central State permanently station themselves near Fengyu Pass, ready to spend large sums of money to buy inner cores of demonic beasts.
“That’s a shame.”
Chen Mobai could only sigh. Then, pretending to be still recovering from his injury, he coughed a few times.
Yun Meng Ze was too dangerous. Without a compelling reason, he would definitely not consider going there.
Although Yuan Chiye was in seclusion, he arranged all the matters that E Yun requested before leaving.
The benefits of the Elder of Foundation Establishment in the Divine Wood Sect were also claimed for Chen Mobai.
Among the twelve departments, there is a Spiritual Vein Department.
This department might sound like it controls the sect’s Spirit Vein, but in reality, apart from the Spirit Vein, it also governs the property shops in the Giant Tree Ridge and the retail outlets of the Divine Wood Sect in the major Fang Markets of the Eastern Wilderness.
After Chen Mobai was promoted to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, his benefits were distributed by this department.
However, he first needs to complete some procedures at the Reward Virtue Hall.
With E Yun, the sect leader’s disciple stepping in, all official procedures were handled in less than a day for Chen Mobai.
In the grand hall of the Spirit Vein Department, there was a miniature model of the Giant Tree Ridge.
“The two elders, the ones that are lit up already have a owner. The rest, you can choose as you like,”
A tall and mediocre-looking female Qi Practitioner escorted E Yun and Chen Mobai here, pointing at the floating, slightly transparent model in mid-air and said.
Chen Mobai nodded his head slightly, looking closely.
He found out that most of the courtyards and shops in the Divine Wood City were already taken, especially the busiest central street, which had none left at all.
“Our sect does not have this many Elders of Foundation Establishment, right?”
E Yun frowned upon seeing that all of the 300 shops on the busiest street were taken.
He himself had rented out his shop directly to one of his senior brothers, receiving an annual rent of a thousand Spirit Stones.
“Indeed we do not have that many established elders, but there’s no issue with the property rights of these 300 shops. If Elder E Yun has time, he can have a talk with our department head.”
The Qi Practitioner from the Spirit Vein Department wiped the sweat off her forehead, answering E Yun’s question a bit unconfidently.
“Are there any larger shops?”
Chen Mobai opened his mouth, helping her out of the predicament.
“Yes, the larger the shop, the more remote the place is, Elder Chen you can look here.”
The female Qi Practitioner let out a sigh of relief, quickly pointing to the south of Divine Wood City.
“This won’t work, this place is inhabited by mortals. Even if the shop is big, it won’t make much Spirit Stone profits.”
E Yun immediately shook his head upon seeing this..
