Chapter 1051: Activating the Immortal Sect's Foundation

Chapter

“All of you who have cultivated to this level in the Immortal Sect are truly deserving geniuses. Having also listened to the Soul-Stirring Melody, you theoretically all have a chance to attempt to break through to the Divine Transformation stage. I hope my experience can offer you some inspiration, but ultimately, it still depends on your own comprehension and effort.”

Chen Mobai faced the Nascent Soul cultivators present, concluding with these summary remarks.

Everyone rose and solemnly bowed to him in gratitude.

“May I ask, True Monarch, will you reside at Five Peaks Immortal Mountain or continue to oversee the Martial Arts Academy?” Gongye Zhixu asked one last question.

This was a crucial matter for their Three Great Halls.

Because if he were at Five Peaks Immortal Mountain, the Three Great Halls would be under Chen Mobai's direct supervision, and they would likely need to seek his instructions and report everything to him.

“I still need to discuss this with True Monarch Qi Yuheng,” Chen Mobai replied. “After all, the Death God's seal is there, so it's probably best for the two of us to take turns overseeing Five Peaks Immortal Mountain.”

Chen Mobai briefly explained his thoughts, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Having Qi Yuheng oversee it alone for an extended period would be too taxing for him.

Previously, there was no alternative, but now that Chen Mobai has cultivated his Second Nascent Soul, he is very willing to share this responsibility.

However, it would be best to wait until his main body also reaches the Divine Transformation stage.

That way, he could attend to both the Eastern Barrens and the Immortal Sect.

For now, Chen Mobai still wanted to oversee things at Mount Chicheng, as the Eastern Barrens would soon begin colonization. Moreover, having cultivated his Second Nascent Soul, it was also time to clear out the area around the Five Elements Sect.

The Nascent Soul cultivators from the Immortal Affairs Hall and the Kaiyuan Hall departed from the Martial Arts Academy first after bidding farewell to Chen Mobai.

Those from the Zhengfa Hall stayed for a while longer.

After all, they were Chen Mobai's own people, and Hua Zijing and Zhong Litianyu had not returned to the academy for a long time. Since they had a rare opportunity to visit this time, they intended to stay for a few days.

“Please, both of you.” Chen Mobai's Second Nascent Soul courteously addressed Elder Chengxuan and Elder Yuanxu. Then all three simultaneously shimmered with silver light, using Void Teleportation to travel to Five Peaks Immortal Mountain.

Chen Mobai's main body remained at Mount Chicheng, reviewing the knowledge of the Ascendant Cult Master, while releasing the captured Ascendant Cult cultivators and handing them over to Zhong Litianyu.

As the head of the Enforcement Department, Zhong Litianyu immediately called Lin Yin, the leader of the Sky-Mending Group, asking her to lead several major departments in forming a special task force to interrogate these individuals.

“You should also pay close attention to this matter,” Chen Mobai told Wenren Xuewei. “The Ascendant Cult's main stronghold and lower-level cultivators have essentially been captured by me, but old figures like Patriarch Longhu and Pavilion Master Shenyu are still alive. The Sky-Earth Net Formation has not yet been fully re-established, so some might resort to desperate measures.”

She nodded, indicating her understanding.

“Cui'er, you take charge of this matter,” Wenren Xuewei said. “I will also mobilize the military to cooperate. This time, we will certainly be able to root out many hidden traitors.”

After receiving Chen Mobai's hint, Wenren Xuewei also understood that this would not be an easy task.

In the era of Guiding Star's White Radiance, to prevent internal complacency and corruption, the Ascendant Cult was kept as an external enemy.

Now, as the Immortal Sect is about to face its most brutal expansion war in history, it's time to remove this cancerous growth.

With the decree of Chen Mobai, a Divine Transformation True Monarch, the Zhengfa Hall dared to act against anyone.

Even against the direct descendants of the Four Great Dao Academies.

“Of course, the most important thing is your own cultivation,” Chen Mobai continued to Wenren Xuewei. “When I was young, I swept through the Immortal Sect without peer, and only you could rival me. You are an opponent I acknowledge, with the potential for Divine Transformation, so I hope you will be one of the future Divine Transformation True Monarchs of the Immortal Sect.”

Finally, Chen Mobai recalled Wenren Xuewei's indolent nature, feeling that she was somewhat wasting her talent. If she were as diligent as he was, given the characteristics of the Everlasting Spring Technique, her achievements would likely be only slightly inferior to his own.

“Yes, True Monarch.”

Upon hearing Chen Mobai's words, Wenren Xuewei suddenly felt her body brimming with motivation.

This was the Pure Yang True Monarch's acknowledgment.

Moreover, during the Soul-Stirring Melody and the Calamity of the Death God, she had indeed seen her path to Divine Transformation and even beyond.

That was the Grand Dao of Life and Death.

When leaving Mount Chicheng with Pei Qingshuang, Wenren Xuewei was, for once, full of fighting spirit. Chen Mobai only hoped her enthusiasm wouldn't be fleeting.

As they parted ways, Chen Mobai also returned the Azure Frost Sword to Pei Qingshuang.

What White Radiance had given him earlier was her self-completed Immortal Sect Sword Art. After Chen Mobai obtained the Law of Five Notes, he was able to understand parts of the Void Refining section.

But most importantly, he used it to fully comprehend all twenty-four sword intents of the Immortal Sect Sword Art left by Zhang Daosun.

Comparing it with White Radiance's answers, Chen Mobai even easily comprehended the two sword dao realms of 'One Sword Breaking All Laws' and 'One Sword Giving Birth to All Laws,' and even understood the profound mystery of consigning the Nascent Soul. His Myriad Sword Dharma Body also became almost complete at this time, lacking only the refinement
