I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 233 - 230: Benefits of Foundation



Translator: 549690339

Chen Mobai began asking about what mattered most to him upon returning to the Divine Wood Sect.

“You have to go to the Witchcraft Division for that. It’s also time for you to report your Foundation Establishment to the Sect Leader. Come with me.” The Divine Wood Sect’s three divisions govern twelve departments. Among them, the Shenmu Hall directly oversees only two departments, Witchcraft and Cultivation Technique, managing the sect’s hidden strength and heritage respectively.

He followed E Yun to meet with the Sect Leader, Meng Hong.

“Very good!”

The old man who was fishing swiftly returned when he heard the news of Chen Mobai’s successful foundation establishment, laughing heartily.

“The sect is flourishing under my leadership, greatly gratifying me.” Meng Hong stood in the middle of the hall, chatting with E Yun and Chen Mobai.

“Master, Junior Brother Chen has successfully formed his foundation, he is eligible to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm.”

Before Chen Mobai could politely broach the topic, E Yun was already saying it outright.

As it should be, Lu Yi, who is in charge of opening the secret realm, has been away handling some affairs. We might have to wait until he returns.”

Meng Hong agreed without hesitation.

Afterward, the Sect Leader continued talking with them for a while, before suddenly asking Chen Mobai a question.

“You’ve been cultivating till now without a master, are you interested in becoming my disciple?”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai hesitated.

He had heard that the Sect Leader had reached the Perfection stage of the Foundation Establishment and was about to retreat to attain Core Formation. Now he is focused on cultivating the next Sect Leader.

Taking on a disciple is definitely because he has recognized Chen Mobai’s talents and wants to catch as many fish as possible.

“I prefer individual cultivation.”

In the end, Chen Mobai refused.

Although having Meng Hong as his master had many benefits, Chen carried too many secrets to avoid exposure-it would be better to cultivate solo.

“What a pity.”

Meng Hong could only sigh, shaking his head and signaling for them to leave.

“How is it?”

After Chen Mobai and E Yun left, Meng Hong suddenly turned to look into the shadow of the hall, where Cang Qi emerged, handing him a scroll.

“We’ve heard from our insiders in the Five Element Sect that Chun Yusu has been putting out assassination contracts on the black market.”

“Who’s the target? What happened?”

Meng Hong lifted his head abruptly with narrowed eyes, causing the temperature in the Shenmu Hall to seemingly drop several degrees, which made Cang Qi shiver.

Someone took the contract, but up until now it hasn’t been called off.”

If it hasn’t been called off, it means the mission has not been completed yet.

“What about Lu Yi’s side?”

“Chen Guixian has not left Jian Country. He investigated all the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the country, and found that a total of five people have left their residing places recently. The most suspicious one is Yuan Hongyuan from Black Cloud Mountain. Yuan Shaoyuan and his two brothers said they went on a business trip to Yun Country with the Luo Family. However their time of disappearance coincides with Chen Guixian becoming a true successor. Due to the delay in intelligence from Yun Country, we can’t confirm if this is true. But Yuan Hongyuan mysteriously left Black Cloud Mountain yesterday and returned seriously injured.”

“Seriously injured? Are you sure?”

Although he knew that Yuan Hongyuan might potentially be a spy implanted in Jian Country by an opposing sect, Meng Hong also knew this man achieved Foundation Establishment through force, and has astonishing battle power. Even a Mid Foundation Establishment cultivator could only hold their ground against him.

“Yes, Lu Yi reported that today, Yuan Hongyuan sent his men to buy elixirs for sword wounds in various Fang Markets. He was likely pitted against a Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator and had a hard time.”

“A Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator!”

Meng Hong and Cang Qi exchanged a glance. Thinking about the injury that Chen Mobai had earlier, an answer immediately emerged in their hearts.

“If it was really Chen Guixian, why didn’t he say anything?”

“I haven’t had much contact with this kid, but he left a deep impression on me. He has a fiery temper and probably wants to fully recover before personally seeking revenge.”

Cang Qi believed he was beginning to understand Chen Mobai, this simple-minded Sword Cultivator. Meng Hong thought for a moment, considering the explanation quite reasonable.

Since he’s not mentioning it, let’s pretend we don’t know either. Let’s keep

Yuan Hongyuan around as his sharpening stone.”

“However, this kid is really savage. He just broke through and picked a fight with Yuan Hongyuan, a renowned Foundation Establishment expert. He won against the odds, reminding me of Master Mo back in the old days.” Mo Douguang from Golden Cliff was known as the top sword cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness before his Core Formation, having managed to slain a Mid Foundation Establishment cultivator during his Early Foundation Establishment stage.

“It’s been four years since the last batch of Foundation Building Pills were distributed in the Back to Sky Valley. Issue a notice in the name of Shenmu Hall, stating that the Divine Tree Secret Realm will open in a month. That should quicken the pace of those brats.”

“Yes.”

Naturally, Chen Mobai was unaware of the conversation that took place in the Shenmu Hall after he left.

He followed E Yun to the Book Pavilion.

The key to opening the Divine Tree Secret Realm has to be arranged by the Cultivation Technique Department, but the Foundation Building versions of the techniques ‘Eternal Youth Sutra’ and ‘Red Flame Sword Jue’ only require the corresponding identity nameplate.

Chen Mobai took out his newly upgraded Foundation Establishment nameplate. The guardian of the Book Pavilion was still the elderly Hu surname cultivator.

He clearly remembered Chen Mobai and was visibly shocked to see that the latter had achieved Foundation Establishment.

“A young genius indeed!”

With a sigh, he felt his aging body and couldn’t help but regret not fighting till the end to achieve Foundation Establishment through force in his youth.

The Book Pavilion, naturally, is a treasure trove for other disciples of the Divine Wood Sect..
