I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2274 - 1041

"Focus on your cultivation here. I have significant obligations that necessitate my absence for an extended period."

Chen Mobai spoke these words to Yin Qingmei, who stood before him. Because the Shocking God Sonata is linked to Divinity Transformation, he required a period of seclusion after hearing it. By the time he emerged, it would likely be to lead the reclamation of the East Continent.

"Yes, foster father. I will dedicate myself to my cultivation and ensure your guidance is not wasted," Yin Qingmei replied, rising immediately.

With a gentle nod, Chen Mobai shifted into a streak of silver light, vanishing from the tree branch.

Yin Qingmei remained in a respectful saluting posture, only lowering her arms after a long silence had passed.

Staring at the empty space where Chen Mobai had been, she felt her cultivation surging to heights she had never reached before, yet a sense of emptiness washed over her.

During their joint cultivation sessions, Chen Mobai’s Innate Pure Yang Qi had harmonized with her Qing Emperor’s Longevity True Qi. This process acted as a refinement for her, tempering her own True Qi until it was exceptionally pure and concentrated.

This assistance had effectively granted her the progress of ten years of solitary labor.

Despite the massive gains, their time together at the Longevity Wood Dojo had only lasted two years.

Yin Qingmei secretly wished this arrangement could last forever, but Chen Mobai held the initiative; since he chose to depart, she had no power to make him stay.

However, she managed to steady her heart quickly. As long as she remained within the Five Elements Sect as the exclusive practitioner of the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture, she would remain valuable to Chen Mobai and surely receive future opportunities.

She resumed her position on the meditation platform atop the branch. Closing her eyes, she focused her spirit, attempting to bridge a connection with the Longevity Wood through her own will now that Chen Mobai’s guidance was gone.

As she meditated, her True Qi began to circulate slowly, mingling with the essence of the Longevity Wood before flowing back into her body to fuel the Longevity Technique.

Being a student of the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture allowed her to practice this profound spell directly. She hoped to master deeper insights into this technique before Chen Mobai’s return, proving her worth to him once more.

While Yin Qingmei poured her soul into her training, Chen Mobai was busy bidding farewell to Fu Zongjue.

"Senior Brother, it is my hope that when we meet again, you will have successfully achieved Nascent Soul Formation."

Chen Mobai had spent two years overseeing Yin Qingmei’s progress. During that time, he had activated the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation to channel Spiritual Energy from the various Spirit Veins of the Eastern Wilderness toward Giant Tree Ridge. This had elevated the local Spiritual Energy to the Fifth Rank Middle Grade. This was done not only to assist the Longevity Wood's growth but also to provide the ideal environment for Fu Zongjue, who had reached Core Formation Perfection, to attempt his breakthrough.

"I appreciate your well-wishes," Fu Zongjue answered, his expression calm and unburdened.

He was already in possession of his Foundation Establishment resources. Chen Mobai had previously gifted him the Sea Soul Agate and the Return to the Sun Spirit Water. Even if his attempt at Nascent Soul Formation failed, these items would allow him to transition into a Dharma Body Nascent Soul immediately.

With such a safety net, the Nascent Soul trial—which many viewed as a terrifying gamble with death—held no fear for him. He laughed and chatted with Chen Mobai with total composure during their goodbye.

"The Longevity Wood’s transformation seems to be stabilizing now. Still, for the sake of caution, you should have Senior Brother Zhou protect you while you undergo Nascent Soul Formation," Chen Mobai advised, his characteristic caution surfacing one last time.

After visiting Sheng Zhaoxi, Zhou Shengqing had been stationed at Northern Abyss City to provide a Nascent Soul presence where one was lacking.

As the premier Immortal City on the borders of the Eastern Wilderness, Northern Abyss City handled a staggering volume of Spirit Stone trades every day. Without a Nascent Soul expert to deter them, many cultivators might be tempted into lawlessness.

Fu Zongjue nodded in agreement with the suggestion.

Because Chen Mobai had personally coordinated the logistics, Mo Douguang was dispatched to take over the guard duty at Northern Abyss City, allowing Zhou Shengqing to return quickly via the teleportation array.

"Rest easy, Junior Brother. I shall remain at Giant Tree Ridge and guard it faithfully until you emerge from your seclusion," Zhou Shengqing promised solemnly.

Leaving Giant Tree Ridge behind, Chen Mobai made sure to say his goodbyes to Qing Nu as well.

By his calculations, the refinement of the Purple Electric Sword should be finalized, so he traveled straight to Wanhua Immortal City.

[Master! You’ve finally come to fetch me!]

Inside the Washing Sword Pool, the Purple Electric Sword felt Chen Mobai’s arrival and let out a joyous mental cry.

The waters of the pool began to churn violently as the Sword Spirit—manifesting with purple hair and eyes—perched upon the eight-edged blade. It leaped from the water’s surface and flew toward Chen Mobai with open arms.

[Impressive. You have made significant strides.]

Chen Mobai reached out to grasp the sword’s rounded hilt. Sensing that it had ascended to the level of a Fifth Rank Superior Grade Sword, he nodded in approval.

[Master, I’ve endured so much over these years! Aside from being submerged in this pool, I had to refine myself with Star Fire every single day without a moment of rest...]

Perched on the edge of the blade, the Purple Electric Sword Spirit began to exaggerate the hardships it had faced.

[You little rascal, you should be celebrating such good fortune instead of whining about it.]

Chen Mobai gave the sword a playful flick, causing the Sword Spirit to wobble. The spirit secretly decided it would have to demand a higher price for its services next time.

"I'm going to test its edge above..."

Chen Mobai informed Qing Nu while holding the weapon. She smiled and nodded in response.

He was slightly concerned that he might not control the Purple Electric Sword as fluidly now that its rank had increased, so he decided to practice with it before returning to the Immortal Gate.

However, his worries were unfounded. As soon as he entered the state of Unity of Man and Sword, he felt a perfect connection with the blade; it remained as responsive and easy to wield as ever.
