Chapter 1111: East Tomb Region Allocation

Six months ago, Shen Xi of the Morality Sect emerged from seclusion, formally announcing his successful Deity Transformation.

The Morality Sect’s invitation reached the Five Elements Sect. As Chen Mobai was in seclusion, Zhou Shengqing represented the sect and traveled to the Eastern Lands.

Following this, the distribution of the last Pill of the Saintly True Spirit in the Eastern Tomb Domain naturally took place.

Ultimately, Xing Ji had the last laugh, acquiring the pill from True Monarch Wuchen. After obtaining the elixir, the price Xing Ji paid is unknown, but he managed to persuade True Monarch Wuchen to personally escort him back to the Xingtian Dao Sect.

Perhaps the mysterious disappearance of Hong Yun last time caused True Monarch Wuchen to feel a loss of face.

This outcome was, for Chen Mobai, the best possible.

Although he had already reconciled with Earth Virtue, their differing stances meant that if Earth Virtue had truly achieved Deity Transformation, it would undoubtedly be disadvantageous for the Five Elements Sect's leadership of the One-Yuan Dao Palace.

And with Xing Ji obtaining the Pill of the Saintly True Spirit, the Xingtian Dao Sect’s foundational heritage must now be handed over, as per his previous agreement with the Eastern Lands Holy Land.

As one of the Holy Lands of the Eastern Lands, the Five Elements Sect naturally enjoys this right.

Upon seeing these messages, Chen Mobai felt as if the world revolved around him.

Upon arriving at Beiyuan City, Chen Mobai entrusted the innocent Little Yellow Dragon Girl to Gu Yan and then went to the adjacent cave mansion to have tea with Zhou Shengqing.

Zhou Shengqing had only recently returned from the Eastern Lands. Previously, as a Dharma Body Nascent Soul, he dared not leave the sect to avoid exposure. So, this time, taking advantage of attending Shen Xi's Deity Transformation banquet, he thoroughly explored the seven immortal cities of the Eastern Lands.

"The Morality Sect is truly worthy of being our Eastern Continent's ancient Holy Land. At the banquet, I saw at least a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators, and every one of them drank the legendary Shoumei Immortal Tea..."

Zhou Shengqing spoke effusively about his experiences in the Eastern Lands. It should be noted that his peers, such as Mo Douguang and Sheng Zhaoxi, had long since tired of visiting the Eastern Lands.

He, however, only gained the confidence to leave the sect and see the outside world after Chen Mobai's Deity Transformation.

"Senior Brother can visit more in the future..."

Chen Mobai listened with a smile. The Five Elements Sect now had no shortage of Nascent Soul cultivators, and Zhou Shengqing, as a venerable elder, could fully enjoy his leisure.

"No, I'd rather not. While the Eastern Lands are good, I'm more accustomed to staying in the Eastern Barrens."

Zhou Shengqing shook his head, indicating that there's no place like home.

While they were having tea, Er Yun, who had received the news, also came up to pay his respects.

"Reporting, Sect Master, the Eastern Tomb Domain has been successfully opened. The Morality Sect has already ordered all sect cultivators to leave..."

Er Yun conveyed the recently received news.

Previously, the Morality Sect had united all Holy Lands, issuing an edict for the righteous forces of the Eastern Continent to open the Eastern Continent's Seventh Domain and, incidentally, slay the Golden Flame Suanni to refine the Pill of the Saintly True Spirit.

Now that both objectives had been achieved, the Five Elements Sect's disciples stationed there could also be recalled.

However, as the Eastern Continent's Seventh Domain, and given its central geographical location within the Eastern Continent, the Morality Sect had also stated its intention to develop it into the future hub of humanity for the Eastern Continent. Therefore, after its opening, various major forces were doing everything possible to claim the spirit veins.

The Five Elements Sect, now a Holy Land, naturally took what was rightfully theirs, occupying the Kun position they had opened, and even claiming the greater part of the adjacent Gen and Zhen positions, making it currently the largest territory among all the Holy Lands.

The reason for this was that the Morality Sect and other Holy Lands primarily focused their attention on the areas surrounding the core Eastern Spirit Mountain. Moreover, during the reclamation, the main armies of the three major Holy Lands were all advancing towards Shituo Ridge.

However, there was only one Eastern Spirit Mountain, making it impossible for the three major Holy Lands to share it.

Thus, there had been hidden currents of tension in the Eastern Tomb Immortal City over territory.

But after Shen Xi's successful Deity Transformation, the situation stabilized.

The central Eastern Spirit Mountain was assigned to the Morality Sect. The Li position went to the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect, and the Dui position went to the Grand Void Misty Palace.

As for the Shituo Ridge spirit vein, it is said that the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect and the Grand Void Misty Palace contended for a while, but it was ultimately given to the Grand Void Misty Palace. Firstly, True Monarch Dakong contributed significantly during the reclamation;

Secondly, the spirit vein's attribute did not align with the cultivation methods of the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect.

However, these were merely superficial reasons.

When Chen Mobai emerged from seclusion, he also received a communication talisman from True Monarch Dakong, discussing this matter. Shituo Ridge was the closest area to the Dragon Abyss Cave within the Eastern Tomb Domain. To prevent it from being discovered by outsiders, he had discussed with True Monarch Wuchen to claim it.

Since the Dragon Abyss Cave had been jointly sealed by the three of them, Chen Mobai also needed to be informed.

Chen Mobai naturally had no objections to this.

After all, even without the Dragon Abyss Cave, he could still use the Turtle Treasure to travel to the Yellow Springs at any time.

"The Eastern Tomb Domain is a vast territory, and it's essential to establish a branch sect or academy there, which requires a Nascent Soul guardian. I plan to trouble Senior Brother Mo to be stationed there for several more decades. What do you think, Senior Brother?"

After some thought, Chen Mobai said this to Zhou Shengqing.

Although the Five Elements Sect currently appeared to have a considerable number of Nascent Soul cultivators, Zhou Shengqing, Fu Zongjue, and Sheng Zhaoxi were all Dharma Body Nascent Souls. Zhou Ye needed to be stationed in Eastern Yi, Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli were in the Eastern Lands, Su Zilu still needed to help Chen Mobai with certain matters, and Qing Nü absolutely could not be sent out.

As for unconventional beings like Taishi Tongzi and Little Yellow Dragon Girl, although their strength was equivalent to Nascent Souls, engaging them in diplomacy with the righteous forces of the Eastern Continent would undoubtedly provoke ridicule and the belief that the Five Elements Sect had no capable personnel.

So, counting them all, only Mo Douguang and Yin Qingmei remained.

They were currently both in the Eastern Tomb Domain, as that territory was largely secured by them.

However, Yin Qingmei cultivated the Azure Emperor's Everlasting Scripture, and her natal spiritual plant was still in the Eastern Barrens. These years in the Eastern Tomb Domain had already delayed her cultivation.

Now that the reclamation was complete, Chen Mobai intended for her to return.

Moreover, his Immortal Wood Spirit Root's enlightenment had not only allowed him to glimpse a secret scene from the primordial age but also thoroughly comprehended the Wood Elemental Dao Fruit. He believed his understanding of the Azure Emperor's Everlasting Scripture was no less than that of the ancient Deity Transformation True Monarchs of the Everlasting Life Sect.

He could then guide her and bestow upon her the Wood Elemental Dao Fruit, which might truly allow her to lay the foundation for Deity Transformation.

For the current Five Elements Sect, although it had ascended to the ranks of Holy Lands, the number of high-level cultivators still could not compare to ancient Holy Lands like the Morality Sect.

The current number of Nascent Soul cultivators was already the Five Elements Sect's limit. Later generations like Zhuo Ming were still too young and would simply require more time for more Golden Core Perfection cultivators to emerge.

And the symbol of a Holy Land was Deity Transformation.

Currently, Chen Mobai alone could theoretically sustain the sect for 3200 years. However, with his unparalleled talent, if he accidentally ascended to the Void Integration stage early, the Five Elements Sect might face a period of instability.

Therefore, the plan to cultivate future Deity Transformations had to be advanced.

Among the Five Elements Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators, besides Qing Nü, Yin Qingmei held the greatest hope for Deity Transformation. This time, by helping the sect secure territory in the Eastern Tomb Domain, she had accumulated merit and could now cultivate peacefully in the Eastern Barrens.

Compared to Yin Qingmei, Mo Douguang, as a sword cultivator, only had a need for spirit veins. The spirit veins in the Eastern Tomb Domain, which Chen Mobai had gathered with a grand formation, were not inferior to Golden Light Cliff.

Coupled with the Metal Elemental Dao Fruit, Chen Mobai believed Mo Douguang would certainly be able to settle in the Eastern Tomb Domain.

"Junior Brother, you can make the arrangements as you see fit. I have no objections."

Zhou Shengqing nodded, feeling relieved that Chen Mobai, despite having achieved Deity Transformation, was still willing to consult him.

After his visit to the Eastern Lands, Zhou Shengqing realized that Chen Mobai was the only truly virtuous person in the entire Eastern Continent.

He felt proud that the former Divine Wood Sect was able to attract Chen Mobai to join, indicating that Chen Mobai approved of his ideals.

"I will personally make a trip to the Eastern Tomb Domain. There are some matters I need to discuss with the other Holy Lands."

Chen Mobai remembered the Black Flood Dragon Royal Court. Through this Pill of the Saintly True Spirit, the righteous path of the Eastern Continent had gained three new Deity Transformations — himself, Ni Yuanzhong, and Shen Xi — making their strength the greatest in nearly two thousand years. If joined by the two seniors, Wuchen and Dakong, they would be sufficient to suppress the Black Sea.

The Black Flood Dragon Royal Court almost overthrew the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect this time, undoubtedly a direct affront to the righteous path of the Eastern Continent. This debt of revenge certainly needed to be settled.

Chen Mobai did not ride Little Yellow Dragon Girl this time, as the journey was far too long, and he would definitely be faster by himself.

He initially intended to use Great Void Teleportation, but quickly thought of a more time-efficient method: directly transferring from Nine Heavens Immortal City to the Morality Sect's Wuwei Immortal City, which offered a direct route to Eastern Spirit Mountain.

It would also be a good opportunity to congratulate Shen Xi on his Deity Transformation at the Morality Sect.

"Sect Master Chen, welcome again anytime."

When Chen Mobai arrived at the Morality Sect, Shen Xi naturally came out to receive him, accompanied by Xuande and Qi Jiansu. After a few cups of Shoumei tea, Shen Xi personally escorted him to Wuwei Immortal City because Chen Mobai was pressed for time.

True Monarch Wuchen was stationed in the newly opened Eastern Tomb Domain, but Chen Mobai did not sense his aura near Eastern Spirit Mountain upon stepping out of the teleportation array.

Matters concerning the Black Flood Dragon Royal Court could only be discussed among Deity Transformations, so Chen Mobai took out a communication talisman.

A short while later, True Monarch Wuchen, having received the message, arrived, brought by True Monarch Dakong.

On the Eastern Continent, the Demonic Path had once again vanished without a trace, so True Monarch Dakong was free to continue studying the Dragon Abyss Cave.

True Monarch Wuchen also had nothing else to do, and due to the need for mutual oversight, he also came here, conveniently freeing up the Morality Sect's sixth-tier spiritual energy for the newly breakthrough Shen Xi.

When Chen Mobai arrived, they both assumed he was inquiring about the Dragon Abyss Cave's progress.

During the battle at the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect, Chen Mobai, although not boasting himself, was considered by Wuchen and Dakong to possess astonishing combat power, making them feel inferior. So, they arrived immediately to avoid any misunderstanding.

"The Black Flood Dragon Royal Court?"

But after hearing Chen Mobai's words, both of them showed expressions of surprise.

"Indeed, the Black Sea demons have always been a scourge to the humans of Eastern Yi. Tens of thousands perish at sea annually because of them. This time, the Black Flood Dragon Royal Court even landed, intending to destroy the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect. Their intent to annihilate our Eastern Continent's righteous path is evident."

"True Spirits live far longer than us. It's better to act together now, while the Eastern Continent has a large number of Deity Transformations, and destroy the Black Flood Dragon Royal Court."

"At the very least, we must expand the coastline to prevent the Black Sea demons from approaching the coast of Eastern Yi any further."
