I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2402 - 1079: Obtaining the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill (2)
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
"My friend, with your Dao Heart so steadfast, I offer my early congratulations on reaching Divinity Transformation."
Hearing this, Dustless True Monarch felt a surge of delight.
The faster Chen Mobai achieved his breakthrough, the quicker the Righteous Path could launch its assault against the Demon Path.
Right then, a Nascent Soul Aura flared up at the teleportation array within Dongling Immortal City; the arriving figure appeared hurried, stepping out from the array and soaring straight toward Qianyuan Tower.
But as they drew close, the cultivator descended to the ground at once, proceeding through the front entrance and climbing the steps.
"Xing Ji offers greetings to the two True Monarchs and all fellow cultivators!"
This new arrival was someone Chen Mobai knew well; after paying respects to the group, he noticed Shenxi occupying Chen Mobai’s former spot, paused briefly, and then settled onto the third meditation mat.
Afterward, the teleportation array glowed repeatedly, bringing in Nascent Soul Cultivators from across Dongling Domain who had been overseeing the ruins' establishment, arriving sequentially.
Among them were Chen Mobai’s familiar faces, such as Ni Yuanzhong, Hong Yun, Han Xingzi, and more.
Earth Virtue showed up last.
With Zhang Pankong not setting up the teleportation array at the Kan position of Yi Yuan Dao Palace, Earth Virtue was forced to make the journey by flight.
"Please forgive my tardiness, forgive me for arriving a step behind..."
Once Earth Virtue entered, he offered repeated apologies, while the assembly stayed quiet, their eyes turning toward Chen Mobai.
The longstanding grudge between the Five Elements Sect and Yi Yuan Dao Palace had once been obscure to some, but now, given Chen Mobai’s standing on par with Divinity Transformation, it was common knowledge among all.
"Take a seat."
Yet Chen Mobai magnanimously gestured to the second meditation mat beneath the Azure Fall Palace Master on the right side, a spot that stood empty, positioned right across from Ni Yuanzhong.
Earlier, Xing Ji had gauged the situation and deemed himself unworthy, so even though he arrived ahead, he yielded the seat reserved for the Four Great Holy Lands.
"Understood, Sect Master."
At Chen Mobai’s response, Earth Virtue let out a relieved breath, having dreaded sharp mockery in this gathering.
In truth, Chen Mobai displayed a generosity beyond what anyone had expected.
"Now that we’re all gathered, allow me to speak a few brief words."
With every Nascent Soul now seated, Dustless True Monarch set aside his teacup and uttered gently, his voice reaching each listener’s ears with crystal clarity.
"The Communicating Holy Spirit Pill has been successfully refined; as per the established guidelines, the order of exchange follows the tally of Dao Coins."
No sooner had he spoken than Shenxi flicked his horsetail whisk, summoning a list woven from misty vapor that materialized in the hall.
Leading the rankings were Chen Mobai, Dustless True Monarch, and Da Kong True Monarch.
Their joint effort in defeating the Golden Flame Manticore had yielded a billion Dao Coins in rewards.
Although Chen Mobai had vanquished the Rank-5 Civet Power, he gained no Dao Coins since he withheld the full corpse from the Dao Morale Sect.
Nevertheless, bolstered by the efforts of Five Elements Sect disciples and countless loose cultivators, Chen Mobai’s Dao Coins surpassed even those of the two Deity Transformation True Monarchs, approaching fifty million.
Trailing the trio of Deities came Ni Yuanzhong, Shenxi, Azure Fall Palace Master, and the leaders of the Three Holy Lands.
Just as Chen Mobai held sway over the Five Elements Sect, these figures could direct the elders and disciples within their own Holy Lands.
Dropping to seventh place after the top six was Hong Yun.
Knowing the Dao Coin rankings rested under Shenxi’s oversight, he understood exactly the amount required for Hong Yun to claim this spot, adhering to Dustless True Monarch’s directive.
In his role as a Holy Land sect master, Shenxi avoided tampering with the figures outright; instead, he positioned Hong Yun alongside Ni Yuanzhong at the Shetuoling frontlines, then arranged for the Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Dao Morale Sect to aid the Burning Heaven Meridians group by passing along some unearthed demonic beasts to Hong Yun.
Via these subtle arrangements, Hong Yun edged out Xing Ji by a mere 100 Dao Coins.
Seeing this, Xing Ji’s expression darkened with anger, his typical mild demeanor cracking; the situation looked even more dire for Earth Virtue, who placed ninth.
Despite pouring Yi Yuan Dao Palace’s resources into the effort, he lagged behind Xing Ji and Hong Yun by more than two million Dao Coins.
"My friend, you should claim one first!"
Dustless True Monarch glanced at the list as if for show, then grinned and urged Chen Mobai, seated nearby, to select a Communicating Holy Spirit Pill.
Without hesitation, Chen Mobai employed his Rank-5 Echoes in the Void to listen in, then grasped the strongest pill in his palm.
"With Brother Da Kong absent, Azure Fall Palace Master can collect his share on his behalf."
Dustless then claimed his own pill, turning to address the Immortal Gate’s Azure Fall Palace Master, who rose promptly, overjoyed, and retrieved both his portion and Da Kong True Monarch’s.
Ni Yuanzhong came next. Chen Mobai observed his composed expression, but through Echoes in the Void, he detected the fierce racing of his heart, betraying deep-seated excitement.
Chen Mobai cast a look toward Yuan Zhen on Tongtian Peak’s side; Ye Qing still hadn’t appeared from the tower.
And even had Ye Qing been present, the regulations dictated that this pill rightfully went to Ni Yuanzhong. After all, each recipient’s Dao Coins would be deducted by the Dao Morale Sect upon claiming it.
Ye Qing possessed no accomplishments, hence no Dao Coins.
"Master, after securing the final pill for the Four Holy Lands, I intend to retreat to the sect for dedicated cultivation. Who might suitably replace me here?"
Having obtained the last pill allotted to the Four Holy Lands, Shenxi sought Dustless True Monarch’s guidance.
This Dongling Domain, envisioned as the forthcoming hub for humanity by the Eastern Continent’s Righteous Dao, had been under Shenxi’s stewardship from its inception through its ongoing growth; his exit could spark brief disorder.
"Such details are trivial; summon Su’er to handle it—she ought to shoulder more duties anyway."
Dustless True Monarch appeared unconcerned; for the Dao Morale Sect, no priority surpassed the rise of a fresh Deity Transformation.
