I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2486 - 1110: Dongling Domain Allocation

Six months earlier, Shenxi from the Dao Morale Sect broke out of his closed-door session, boldly proclaiming his breakthrough into Divinity Transformation.

An invitation arrived from the Dao Morale Sect directed at the Five Elements Sect; since Chen Mobai stayed immersed in seclusion, Zhou Shengqing stepped forward to stand for the sect during the trip to the East Land.

Right after that, the distribution of the final Communicating Holy Spirit Pill from the Dongling Domain naturally followed.

In the close, Xing Ji ended up with the ultimate victory, trading it away from Dustless True Monarch. Once he secured the pill, the exact cost Xing Ji covered stayed a secret, yet he succeeded in convincing Dustless True Monarch to accompany him straight back to the Star Heaven Dao Sect.

Maybe the strange vanishing of Hong Yun before left Dustless True Monarch with a sense of shame.

This result turned out to be the most favorable for Chen Mobai.

After everything, even though he had resolved past grudges with Earth Virtue, their opposing views ensured that Earth Virtue reaching Divinity Transformation for real would surely harm the Five Elements Sect's control over Yi Yuan Dao Palace.

And at this point, with Xing Ji grabbing the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, based on his earlier pact with the Eastern Earth Holy Land, the base setup of the Star Heaven Dao Sect had to be surrendered.

At present, as a key player among the Eastern Earth Holy Lands, the Five Elements Sect of course claimed this benefit.

Hearing this update, Chen Mobai sensed the entire world spinning in his favor.

Once he reached Northern Abyss City, Chen Mobai handed over the innocent young Dragon Girl, Yellow, to Gu Yan's care and headed to the adjacent cave dwelling to sip tea alongside Zhou Shengqing.

Lately, Zhou Shengqing had come back from the East Land. Before, as a Legal Body Nascent Soul, he couldn't risk venturing out to prevent detection, so he held back. But this round, using the chance of joining Shenxi's Divinity Transformation feast, he made the most of it to roam freely through the Seven Great Immortal Cities of the Eastern Land.

"The Dao Morale Sect truly lives up to its name as the Ancient Sacred Land of our Eastern Continent; at the banquet, I saw no fewer than a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators, all savoring the fabled Longevity Eyebrow Immortal Tea..."

Zhou Shengqing eagerly shared his adventures in the East Land, aware that his fellow members like Mo Douguang and Sheng Zhaoxi had already wandered the East Land extensively long ago.

Only following Chen Mobai's Divinity Transformation did he gain the assurance to step beyond the sect and witness the wider world.

"Senior Brother, you can venture out there way more in the days ahead..."

Chen Mobai grinned while taking it all in. These days, the Five Elements Sect boasted plenty of Nascent Soul cultivators, so Zhou Shengqing, in his role as elder, could indulge fully.

"I'd prefer to pass. The East Land has its charms, but I prefer sticking around in the Eastern Wilderness."

Zhou Shengqing shook his head, showing that no fancy gold or silver dwelling beat the comfort of his own simple home.

As they chatted over tea, E Yun, informed of the situation, showed up to offer his greetings.

"Honored Sect Master, the Dongling Domain's development has wrapped up successfully, and the Dao Morale Sect has commanded that every sect cultivator may now depart..."

E Yun passed along the latest reports he had gathered.

The Dao Morale Sect, together with the other Sacred Lands, had earlier directed the Eastern Continent's Righteous Forces to pioneer the Seventh Domain of the Eastern Continent and, along the way, eliminate the Golden Flame Manticore to craft the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill.

Now that those goals stood complete, all the Five Elements Sect's disciples stationed there could pull back entirely.

Still, since this marked the Seventh Domain of the Eastern Continent, positioned right in the heart of the Eastern Continent, the Dao Morale Sect announced its ongoing growth as a central base for the Human Race across the Eastern Continent. Thus, post-development, competing factions rushed to seize the Spirit Veins.

The Five Elements Sect, elevated to Sacred Land status, took the initiative to claim the Kun Position and even snatched up the bulk of the adjacent Gen Position and Zhen Position, securing the biggest chunk of land among the Sacred Lands.

This mainly happened because the Dao Morale Sect and fellow Sacred Lands zeroed in on the prime zone around East Spirit Mountain, and during the push, the core troops of the Three Great Sacred Lands all surged toward Shetuoling.

Yet with just a single East Spirit Mountain available, it was obvious the Three Great Sacred Lands couldn't divide it equally.

Earlier on, tensions simmered around Dongling Immortal City over land disputes.

But Shenxi's triumphant Divinity Transformation brought everything under control.

The heart of East Spirit Mountain went to the Dao Morale Sect, the Li Position fell to the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, and the Dui Position landed with Taixu Miaomiao Palace.

As for Shetuoling, rumors swirled of a clash between the Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Taixu Miaomiao Palace over it, but ultimately, it went to Taixu Miaomiao Palace. One factor was Da Kong True Monarch's key role in the development; another was the Spirit Vein's qualities not aligning with the Nine Heavens Morality Sect's cultivation methods.

That said, those were just the obvious excuses.

When Chen Mobai finished his seclusion, a Dao Transmission Talisman arrived from Da Kong True Monarch on this topic, since Shetuoling sat inside the Dongling Domain's borders, nearest to Dragon Abyss Cave. To keep it hidden from outsiders, he and Dustless True Monarch planned to take it over.

Given that the Dragon Abyss Cave's seal involved the three of them, they made sure to loop in Chen Mobai too.

On this front, Chen Mobai offered no resistance.

For one, even lacking Dragon Abyss Cave, he could always rely on Turtle Treasure to reach Huangquan whenever needed.

"With such an expansive stretch in the Dongling Domain, it calls for setting up a branch and a dedicated residence, complete with Nascent Soul overseers. I'm thinking of asking Senior Brother Mo to hold the fort there for a few decades; how does that sound?"

After some thought, Chen Mobai turned to Zhou Shengqing with the idea.

Even though the Five Elements Sect appeared flush with Nascent Soul cultivators at the moment, Zhou Shengqing, Fu Zongjue, and Sheng Zhaoxi all counted as Legal Body Nascent Souls; Zhou Ye had to watch over Eastern Yi Coast, Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli stayed tied up in the East Land, Su Ziluo handled assisting Chen Mobai on key tasks, and Qing Nu couldn't be sent away.

When it came to Tai Sui Child, little Dragon Girl, and similar outsiders, despite their power matching Nascent Soul levels, sending them to deal with the Eastern Continent's Righteous Forces would only draw mockery, implying the Five Elements Sect had run out of proper talent.

So weighing options, only Mo Douguang and Yin Qingmei fit the bill.

Right now, both lingered in the Dongling Domain, treating it like their own domain.

However, Yin Qingmei followed the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture, and her core Lifebound Spirit Plant remained rooted in the Eastern Wilderness, meaning her time in the Dongling Domain had stalled her progress these past years.

With the heavy lifting done, Chen Mobai aimed to recall her.

Besides, he had freshly awakened his Immortal Wood Spirit Root, unlocked some primordial secrets from the dawn of heaven and earth, and mastered the Wood Element Dao Fruit entirely. He figured his insight into the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture rivaled any ancient Deity Transformation True Monarch from the Longevity Sect.

Soon enough, under his guidance and with the Wood Element Dao Fruit bestowed, she could very well lay the groundwork for her own transformation in cultivation.

For the Five Elements Sect today, despite its rise as a Sacred Land, the count of top-tier cultivators still lagged behind veterans like the Dao Morale Sect.

The sect's ceiling sat at Nascent Soul cultivators for now, and rising stars like Zhuo Ming remained too green. They just needed to bide time until more Core Formation Perfection experts stepped up.

What defined a true Sacred Land was the presence of Deity Transformation cultivators.

Only Chen Mobai qualified at present, and while he could theoretically prop up the sect for 3,200 years, his exceptional gifts might lead to an unexpected early ascension, leaving the Five Elements Sect vulnerable for a stretch.

Hence, kickstarting the grooming of future Deity Transformations had to begin without delay.

Besides Qing Nu, among the Five Elements Sect's Nascent Soul ranks, Yin Qingmei held the brightest prospects for Deity Transformation. After aiding the sect in claiming Dongling Domain turf, her contributions stood solid, allowing her to focus on steady cultivation back in the Eastern Wilderness.

For Mo Douguang, the sword cultivator, he simply needed a solid Spirit Vein, and Chen Mobai had already harnessed one in the Dongling Domain via a massive formation, rivaling Golden Cliff in quality.

On top of that, blending in the Metal Dao Fruit convinced Chen Mobai that Mo Douguang would thrive there permanently.

"Junior Brother, handle it however you deem best. I'm fine with it."

Zhou Shengqing nodded, warmed by the fact that Chen Mobai, fresh from Deity Transformation, still valued his input.

Having roamed the East Land, Zhou Shengqing saw that across the Eastern Continent, Chen Mobai alone shone with such integrity, unmatched by any other.

He took pride in how the Divine Wood Sect had drawn in Chen Mobai.

This reflected Chen Mobai's harmony with his own ideals.

"I'll make the journey to the Dongling Domain myself; got some talks lined up with the other Sacred Lands."

Chen Mobai remembered the Mysterious Flood Dragon Court; thanks to the latest Communicating Holy Spirit Pill stirring things in the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao, with him, Ni Yuanzhong, and Shenxi now in play, their collective might hit the highest peak in almost two millennia. Factoring in Dustless and Da Kong, their force could easily overwhelm the Mysterious Sea.

The Mysterious Flood Dragon Court's bold strike nearly brought down the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, a direct insult to the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao, and this grudge demanded settling.

This go-around, Chen Mobai skipped riding the little Yellow Dragon Girl, deeming the trek too lengthy, so flying solo would prove faster.

He first considered Great Void Transference, but quickly recalled a swifter route: shifting from Nine Heavens Immortal City right into the Dao Morale Sect's Wuwei Immortal City, linking directly to East Spirit Mountain.

It also gave him a perfect excuse to drop by the Dao Morale Sect and celebrate Shenxi's Deity Transformation.

...

"Sect Master Chen, feel free to return anytime."

At the Dao Morale Sect, Shenxi warmly received Chen Mobai, joined by Xuande and Qi Jiannu, as they enjoyed a few rounds of Longevity Eyebrow Immortal Tea. Given Chen Mobai's tight schedule, Shenxi saw him off personally to Wuwei Immortal City.

Dustless True Monarch guarded the freshly claimed Dongling Domain, but as Chen Mobai exited the Teleportation Array, he picked up no trace of his presence near East Spirit Mountain.

The Mysterious Flood Dragon Court trouble clearly required Deity Transformation-level talks, so Chen Mobai dispatched a Message Talisman.

Shortly thereafter, Dustless True Monarch caught the signal and appeared, bringing Da Kong True Monarch with him.

These days in the Eastern Continent, the Demon Path lay quiet once more, freeing Da Kong True Monarch to probe Dragon Abyss Cave.

Dustless True Monarch, with no pressing duties and tied to mutual watch, joined in too, while conveniently tapping the Dao Morale Sect's Sixth Rank Spiritual Energy for the newly advanced Shenxi.

Now that Chen Mobai showed up, they figured his visit tied to updates on Dragon Abyss Cave.

In the clash with the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, though Chen Mobai stayed modest, Dustless and Da Kong held him in higher regard than themselves; so they hurried over, avoiding any potential mix-up.

"Mysterious Flood Dragon Court?"

Both True Monarchs showed clear surprise at Chen Mobai's explanation.

"Yes, the Mysterious Sea beasts have long plagued the humans of Eastern Yi, claiming tens of thousands of lives each year on the waves. This land assault by the Mysterious Flood Dragon Court, aiming to topple the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, reveals their ongoing hunger to challenge the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao."

"True Spirits outlast us by ages; we should strike now, while the Eastern Continent brims with Deity Transformations, and crush the Mysterious Flood Dragon Court together."

"At minimum, push the borders seaward, keeping the Mysterious Sea Demon Tribe far from Eastern Yi Coast."
