Chapter 303: 257: Lonely Spirit Ridge_2
Half a year had passed, and due to his diligent cultivation of Void Spirit Eye, only less than half a bottle was left of Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew, and it was about to be used up.
This spiritual liquid could also be used to enhance Divine Sense. During this period, another green paulownia seedling in his sea of knowledge had sprouted two green buds, making rapid progress.
For Chen Mobai, Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew was undoubtedly the most suitable spiritual medicine for him at this stage.
Therefore, he still hoped to be able to continuously consume the medicine. Unfortunately his request for bamboo fruits on the Spirit Treasure Pavilion had been hanging for half a year, and there were still no takers.
He casually mentioned it today and didn’t expect there to be a harvest.
“No problem, I will arrange for Green Bamboo Mountain. The price of a bamboo fruit is usually 350 Spirit Stones. I probably paid about 1000 Spirit Stones as compensation for the other two disciples. I can count that as three bamboo fruits, how does that sound?”
Upon hearing Zeng Woyou’s words, Chen Mobai nodded.
So it was settled.
Lonely Spirit Ridge!
A very ordinary mountain in the eastern part of the Rain Country.
If it wasn’t for confirming that Yan Jinye’s Life Plaque pointed here, the three of Chen Mobai wouldn’t dare to believe that there was a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s cave dwelling hidden here.
“Master, the Qi Pointer Disk is starting to spin chaotically.”
High above Lonely Spirit Ridge, a black-robed youth held a bronze plate on a floating airship. The bronze spoon on it started to spin wildly as if the target was rapidly moving in all directions.
“Hmm, it seems that there should be natural geographical patterns here. Coupled with the exoteric array plate, all the spirit energy of the land veins has been sealed off, turning this place into a terrifying forbidden area.” The middle-aged man who spoke was Shan Hongyi, whom Chen Mobai had previously met.
The black-robed youth next to him was Yu Lian, who had joined the Divine Wood Sect along with Chen Mobai.
It was heard that after he left Bud Hall, he had become a disciple of Shan Hongyi and seemed to have been cultivating diligently. He was not seen in the grand sect competition a few years ago.
Today, he has reached the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, and it doesn’t seem like he just broke through. It is likely that in one or two years, he would be able to achieve Qi Cultivation Perfection.
“So, do we go in directly?”
Bi Yiyuan, another cultivator at the Foundation Establishment realm, asked.
His face was rough, bald, and without eyebrows. The entire person stood there like a source of heat with his vitality running high.
“Junior sister Yan left the mountain gate with Sister Mei from the Spirit Vein Department. If this Foundation Establishment cave dwelling could trap the two of them, we’d better be a little more careful.”
As Shan Hongyi spoke, he took out a Message Talisman, injected spiritual power into it, and shot it towards Lonely Spirit Ridge below.
Chen Mobai took a look and found out it’s a Message Talisman.
Upon a brief thought, he couldn’t help but admire Shan Hongyi’s seasoned experience.
This Message Talisman can track the nameplate of a divine wood sect disciple within a certain range.
If Yan Jmye is really trapped under this Lonely Spirit Ridge, this would be the most convenient and fastest way to get in contact with her.
Sure enough, the Message Talisman was unaffected by the surrounding geomagnetic spiritual energy and the array, it flew directly towards Yan Jinye’s Divine Wood Sect nameplate, and disappeared into a hidden cave on the southern side of Lonely Spirit Ridge.
“What’s next? Do we just barge in?”
Bi Yiyuan asked, a little reckless in his words.
However, Chen Mobai felt that a person who could cultivate to such a realm wouldn’t be so foolhardy. This was probably just a ruse.
“Junior brother Chen, what do you think?”
Bi Yiyuan suddenly asked Chen Mobai.
All three of them had introduced themselves under the introduction of Zeng Woyou. 5
After getting on the floating airship, Chen Mobai kept quiet as much as he could, indicating that he’d follow the two senior brothers’ decisions.
“Whatever Senior Brother Shan decides.”
Chen Mobai clearly knew himself. Although he had decent fighting abilities, he was still lacking in experience in places like the Tianhe Realm, where danger lurked everywhere. It was better to follow Shan Hongyi’s instructions.
Let’s wait for Junior Sister’s response.”
After the two finished speaking, Shan Hongyi finally spoke.
The Message Talisman can reply once, and if it could indeed be delivered to Yan Jinye’s hands, then it was necessary to ask what exactly was going on in her cave dwelling.
“Okay.”
The three of them reached a consensus.
Yu Lian, you go around and ask if there are any legends or strange stories about the Lonely Spirit Ridge.”
Shan Hongyi instructed his disciple to gather information, and Yu Lian immediately nodded in agreement.
“I’ll go with him, it’ll be faster.”
Chen Mobai suddenly spoke up, causing everyone present to be slightly taken aback.
But considering that Yu Lian had not yet reached Foundation Establishment and could not fly, it would be more convenient if Chen Mobai were with him. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, junior brother Chen.”
“No problem.”
Chen Mobai, with a smile, activated his “Red Misty Cloud Silk”. A wisp of pale red cloud appeared in mid-air, and he stepped on it first.
Yu Lian hesitated for a moment, then carefully followed him onto the cloud.
Junior brother, this magic artifact of yours is quite intriguing.”
Shan Hongyi and Bi Yiyuan had never seen a cloud artifact like the “Red Misty Cloud Silk”, which could gather and disperse at will. They couldn’t help but admire it.
Chen Mobai just chuckled lightly, not saying anything.”
He then flew with Yu Lian towards the nearby areas rich in spiritual energy. “Senior Uncle Chen… do you have something to say to me?”
While standing on the cloud of mist, Yu Lian looked at Chen Mobai and spoke hesitantly.
“After all, we both come from the same place, and bear a hometown friendship. Plus, there’s not much common ground between me and my two senior brothers on the Floating Airship, so I’d rather go out with you.”
“Senior Uncle Chen, you’ve managed to suppress three thousand Qi Cultivation disciples in the sect with a single sword, and achieved Foundation Establishment just four years after joining. You’re like the sun and the moon in the sky. I didn’t expect that you’d remember a mere hometown fellow like me.” What Yu Lian meant to say was that he was surprised and flattered, but his face showed no expression and his tone was calm, leaving Chen Mobai at a loss for words.
Initially, our group was assigned to Senior Brother E Yun by the sect. However, I went to the farm to avoid trouble after leaving Bud Hall. It’s good that you became a disciple of Senior Brother Shan. The Luo siblings in the sect have the backing of their clan’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators.” Upon hearing this, Yu Lian furrowed his eyebrows, unclear about what Chen Mobai was trying to say.
“If I hadn’t established my foundation first, I would probably have to risk my life for the sect at Yun Meng Ze, even while farming. You’ve reached the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, why didn’t you participate in the sect competition?” “To make a name for myself.”
Yu Lian said something that slightly surprised Chen Mobai, then he laughed.
“With your abilities, it could be possible.”
“I could do that initially, but with you in the picture now, no matter how much I stand out, I can’t reach your level.”
Yu Lian sighed.
Listening to this, Chen Mobai was at a loss for words.
Indeed, he had set a benchmark in the sect’s true education that was virtually unattainable, and certainly unsurpassable for others.
“There’s a Cultivator over there.”
The bronze plate in Yu Lian’s hand suddenly pointed in a certain direction.
Chen Mobai promptly flew towards it with him.
“In the future, if you can enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm and obtained something good that you don’t need, you could sell it to me.”
The two of them asked several nearby Cultivators about the Lonely Spirit Ridge
and on the way back, Chen Mobai subtly dropped a hint.
Upon hearing this, Yu Lian looked surprised.
“Do you think I can succeed in Foundation Establishment on the first try?” “Among those who have joined the Divine Wood Sect with us, your talent is widely acknowledged to be the best. If I can do it, you certainly can too.” Chen Mobai said something that caused a change in Yu Lian’s expression. “Here’s the reply from Yan Jinye, Junior brother Chen, you should take a look at it.”
After the two of them returned to the Floating Airship, Shan Hongyi handed a piece of paper to Chen Mobai.
[The owner of the cave dwelling has turned himself into a Silver Armored Corpse. Sister Mei and I cannot leave its side in order to suppress it. Please, brothers, bring some extremely yang and extremely hard artifacts or talismans when you come in.]
