I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2494 - 1115: Back Mountain Gate Guard_2
Previously on I Have A Cultivation World...
Furthermore, Qian Xing's reincarnated form had independently mastered the Devour God Technique, and when joining forces, Chen Mobai sensed they formed an ideal partnership.
"Xiao Yu, are you willing to be a gatekeeper?"
Cheng Xuan received Chen Mobai's explanation via sound transmission, gave a nod, and then questioned Yu Tianguang, who reflected on it and realized this role suited him perfectly, so he agreed with a nod.
Subsequently, the two Deity Transformation True Monarchs from the Dance Tool Dao Academy escorted Yu Tianguang personally to inspect his new workstation.
"Principal, old principal, why have you both come today?"
As they descended from the skies, Qian Xing's reincarnated body, reclining while toying with his phone, noticed them immediately, hit the pause key, and inquired with a puzzled look.
"Wasn’t it you, A Xing, who said that it’s too tiring for one person to be on duty from morning till night, so we found you a new recruit."
Chen Mobai grinned while engaging the young fellow in talk, as Cheng Xuan displayed a warm demeanor, sometimes adding comments to check on the boy's condition and his approval of the housing and benefits.
"That’s great, finally someone arrived. Let’s make it clear; I’ve been here longer, so I definitely have to be the team leader."
Qian Xing's reincarnated identity was Chen Xingxing, and years of deep internet immersion had forged his bold and unrestrained nature. Seeing Yu Tianguang's elderly vibe, he quickly declared his seniority as leader.
"Of course, you’re a senior employee, experienced. Xiao Yu is working for the first time and might not be adapted to all aspects yet, so we’ll have to trouble you to guide him more."
Positioned to the right of Chen Xingxing, Cheng Xuan smiled and nodded while indicating toward Yu Tianguang.
Chen Mobai wore an equally gentle expression.
This behavior stirred deep curiosity in Yu Tianguang.
He wondered if Chen Xingxing held Deification qualifications or a mighty heritage; however impressive, could it exceed true Deification?
Why did the Dance Tool Dao Academy's two Deity Transformations display such over-the-top courtesy?
"Xiao Yu, get familiar with A Xing, and start work tomorrow."
Cheng Xuan addressed Yu Tianguang, who nodded and eagerly introduced himself to Chen Xingxing.
"By the way, what’s your number? I’ll add you as a friend first."
Chen Xingxing nodded, grabbed his phone, and asked.
Yu Tianguang stood frozen; fresh from prison, he hadn't bought a phone yet.
"We came in a hurry; Xiao Yu probably left his phone in the interview office, A Xing, you give your number first, and we’ll let Xiao Yu add you when we get back."
Cheng Xuan swiftly devised a cover story, and Chen Xingxing remained unsuspecting, recited his digits casually, then fixed his gaze on them intently.
Chen Mobai caught on at once, realizing he craved gaming time and they were obstructing, so he hurriedly led Cheng Xuan and Yu Tianguang away.
En route, Cheng Xuan departed ahead toward the Treasure Trove's core depths. Deng Daoyun had long ago forged a Dao Fruit from the Dan Cauldron Jade Tree and now aimed to upgrade his Lifespan Artifact; Cheng Xuan offered guidance there, hoping to build a Rank-5 base for Deng Daoyun's Lifespan Artifact.
Back at the office with Yu Tianguang, Chen Mobai tasked Zhuang Jialan with getting a fresh phone, while deploying his Azure Bird Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect to channel the Pure Yang Great Tao, bathing Yu Tianguang entirely and aiding him in solidifying his Realm.
This display left Yu Tianguang awestruck by the Deity Transformation True Monarch's immense might, deepening his reverence.
"Your Lifespan Artifact remains sealed in the Department of Law Enforcement’s warehouse; I’ve already dispatched someone to fetch it, arriving shortly. Bond well with A Xing; he's remarkably talented and could uphold the academy in my stead someday."
Chen Mobai avoided revealing Qian Xing's true nature, phrasing it carefully.
"I see, no wonder..."
Yu Tianguang absorbed the words and gained clarity, affirming his Deification aptitude.
This thrilled him greatly, envisioning the academy's third Deity Transformation True Monarch and awaiting it eagerly.
"Take these Spirit Stones; though delayed a century, Shen Yu Xuan Lord's possession to amplify power had broadened your Dantian Qi Sea to Perfect Core Formation. With the seal lifted and Pure Yang Great Tao stabilization, simply draw in Spiritual Energy to swiftly boost your Spiritual Power toward Golden Core Ninth Layer."
As Chen Mobai explained, he passed Yu Tianguang a prepared case of Superior Grade Spirit Stones; still holding pre-incarceration views on Immortal Gate rarities, Yu Tianguang kept declining them.
"Take them; don’t worry about their value. As a Deity Transformation now, these items mean little to me."
Chen Mobai thrust them into Yu Tianguang's hands, who then awkwardly tucked them into his Domain.
"The back mountain offers serenity and calm; focus on cultivation, and should you progress enough, I'll explore arranging a Nascent Soul Formation chance for you."
Chen Mobai noted, despite Yu Tianguang's aged look, he was merely three hundred thirty years old.
Post-graduation from Dance Tool Dao Academy, he'd waited just sixty-four years for Core Formation success, sparking Cheng Xuan's early optimism.
Then over a century in Red Sandstone City followed by a century imprisoned, yet at his age, Nascent Soul hopes lingered.
Hearing this, Yu Tianguang grew even more exhilarated, voicing thanks repeatedly.
Just then, Zhuang Jialan arrived bearing the new cellphone.
Chen Mobai directed her to guide Yu Tianguang in gathering gatekeeper uniforms and setting up lodging and such.
As Yu Tianguang departed, Chen Mobai sensed a subtle relief in his heart and spirit. His Realm stayed unchanged, yet he felt a tad nearer to the Great Tao.
The link with Yu Tianguang originated when he turned eighteen, resolved over a century later.
This insight explained why Qian Xing and Bai Guang, post-Deification, secluded themselves at Five Peaks Immortal Mountains, emerging only for major affairs.
Such ties, when severed, brought ease, but many evolved into inescapable binds.
For instance, Bai Guang's parental remorse linked to Shi Wanyu via the Method of Reduction and Emptiness, scarcely untangled.
Chen Mobai preferred fewer entanglements, undaunted by the unresolvable ones.
After all, Yi Yuan Dao Palace's legacy featured methods to pass connections to disciples.
Naturally, Chen Mobai planned splitting his bonds: one portion via the Fruit of Dao’s Rule to Jiang Zongheng, the other to Zhuo Ming, both gifted with Deification promise to shoulder this duty.
Liu Wenbo and Luo Yixuan focused purely on cultivation, spared such weighty loads.
With these thoughts, Chen Mobai recalled not yet seeking two tree hearts from the Great Chun Divine Tree for Wood Spiritual Talismans, so he reached for his phone to contact Wenren Xuewei.
But quickly, he remembered cutting short their call the prior night.
The Peach Blossom Sage sought discussion.
He was bound for Jumang Academy anyway; they could convene there.
Chen Mobai shared strong ties with the Jumang Lineage, and his grasp of the Pure Yang Great Tao owed much to the Rank-5 Water of Ten Thousand Transformations nurturing the Five-Cornered Ancient Maple, thus he granted the Peach Blossom Sage this audience.
Silver radiance shimmered as Chen Mobai teleported to the Great Chun Divine Tree's site.
Shortly, Wenren Xuewei, alerted by him, activated Void Teleportation through the local Immortal Gate.
Leveraging her bond, she accessed the Great Chun Spirit's consciousness realm, where Chen Mobai addressed the emerald-eyed girl's Transformation concerns.
"Once the Immortal Gate survives the next opening war catastrophe, post my Void Cultivation, I'll dismantle the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, granting the senior liberty."
Though not ideal, versus prior eternal confinement, hope for release now existed, so the emerald-eyed girl stood, bowed faintly to Chen Mobai in thanks.
"Then I look forward to the day the True Monarch Cultivates Void."
