Chapter 1132: Six Jia Heavenly Gods

"Our sect currently has only a few dozen members, and the spiritual vein of Kongsang Valley is already sufficient. The desolate lands outside the valley and the breached immortal cities were rebuilt thanks to your sect's efforts in reconstruction. According to the rules of the Eastern Reaches, these should rightfully belong to your esteemed sect."

After reclaiming Kongsang Valley, Kuzhu wisely gave up all other territories.

As he traveled, he saw that the lands, which had been reduced to ruins by the rampant demon beasts, were now teeming with life. He knew the Five Elements Sect must have put in an immense amount of effort for this.

Kongsang Valley currently had no right to claim these lands, and as long as Chen Mobai was present, they would have to rely on the Five Elements Sect.

It was better to simply hand them over directly, earning Chen Mobai's favor and legitimately allowing the Five Elements Sect to establish ownership of these territories.

"In that case, I will graciously accept."

Chen Mobai had initially thought that Kuzhu, as a sword cultivator, wouldn't be so quick-witted, but unexpectedly, Kuzhu had already brought up the matter before he even had a chance to speak.

This way, the loose end regarding the Five Elements Sect's occupation of Kongsang Valley's territory was resolved.

Chen Mobai decided to offer some more benefits.

"I recall there's still a Golden Liquid Jade Restoration Pill in the Spirit Treasure Pavilion's inventory," Chen Mobai said to Gu Yan, "Bring it to me in my name."

Gu Yan nodded, and soon she and E Yun approached. E Yun then handed over a bottle of elixirs.

"Junior Martial Niece Xiao and I have a certain karmic affinity," he said. "This is our sect's Core Formation spiritual medicine; please deliver it to her on my behalf, Fellow Daoist Kuzhu."

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Mingwen, who was nearby, showed a flicker of excitement on her face; after all, Xiao Lingli was her disciple.

The sect's customs at Kongsang Valley were commendable in the Eastern Continent compared to other powers, with deep emotional bonds between masters and disciples.

"Many thanks, True Monarch!"

Kuzhu did not refuse. Currently, apart from him, a Nascent Soul cultivator, Kongsang Valley had only a handful of other disciples. If Xiao Lingli could achieve Core Formation and receive the protection of the Five Elements Sect, he could then return to the Western Continent to seek revenge with peace of mind.

"Rebuilding a sect is the most challenging task. If you need anything, you can speak to E Yun."

As Chen Mobai spoke, E Yun nodded, then took out her Heaven-Connecting Device and added True Monarch Mingwen's contact information.

Upon hearing this, Kuzhu knew it was time for them to take their leave.

After learning the method to unseal the spiritual vein, Kuzhu did not linger in Beiyuan City but returned directly to Dongyi via a large-scale teleportation array.

Once the guests had departed, Chen Mobai gave E Yun a few instructions, then took Gu Yan to Xiaonan Mountain.

As the inheritance ground for his lineage, he had rarely visited since entrusting it to Zhuo Ming.

This was mainly because he felt at ease with Zhuo Ming in charge.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the teleportation array, he noticed tribulation clouds gathering in the sky above Xiaonan Mountain.

Had Zhuo Ming achieved Nascent Soul?

Chen Mobai was greatly startled. He immediately left Gu Yan behind and teleported to Xiaonan Mountain.

Amidst the vast, dark clouds, streaks of crimson lightning constantly flashed, and faintly, dazzling flames could be seen churning like magma within the tribulation clouds.

But Chen Mobai relaxed, as the power of this heavenly tribulation was simply too weak.

"I fed some second- and third-tier Vitality Blood Refining Pills to the spiritual beasts in the mountain," Qing Nü said, sensing Chen Mobai's aura. She flew to his side, smiling, "Unexpectedly, one of Ming'er's Azure Swan birds actually broke through its bottleneck and advanced to the third tier thanks to this."

Besides being the Five Elements Sect's foremost expert in spiritual plants, Zhuo Ming was also proficient in spiritual beasts.

The green ox gifted by Liu Wenbai, the mountain civet cat caught by Chen Mobai, and the two Azure Swan birds from the Liang family had all been nurtured by her to the peak of the second tier.

Among these, the Azure Swan bird had the highest bloodline grade, rumored to possess a trace of Azure Phoenix blood. However, despite the Liang family cultivating them for hundreds of years, the strongest one only reached the peak of the second tier.

According to Mei Longzheng of the Beast Taming Sect, the Azure Swan bird's limit was the second tier, as its bloodline was already extremely thin—so much so that even cultivating the True Spirit Transformation Technique couldn't awaken it.

Yet, under the influence of the Vitality Blood Refining Pills refined by Qing Nü this time, it managed to break through its limitations.

Chen Mobai looked up to see a beautiful, large bird with outstretched plumage and a body shimmering with azure light gracefully flying up from a spiritual tree at the peak of Xiaonan Mountain, soaring towards the crimson fiery light descending from the sky.

Streams of incredibly sharp wind blades swept forth from the Azure Swan bird's wings, instantly coalescing into a massive whirlwind that collided with the heavenly tribulation's fiery light, erupting in a violent roar.

Two streaks of Nascent Soul spiritual light flashed as Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue, having also sensed the commotion at Xiaonan Mountain, flew over. Seeing Chen Mobai and Qing Nü, the couple, they immediately relaxed and clasped their hands in greeting.

"I never thought this Azure Swan bird could actually advance in rank!"

Zhou Shengqing was greatly surprised and delighted after hearing what Chen Mobai had said.

Over the years, the Liang family had also flourished by relying on the Five Elements Sect, and they currently possessed seven peak second-tier Azure Swan birds. If all of them could advance with the aid of the Vitality Blood Refining Pills, then the Five Elements Sect would gain seven spiritual beasts equivalent to Core Formation cultivators.

Furthermore, these beasts had been tamed since they were young, were extremely obedient, and could even serve as flying boats in critical moments, transporting the Five Elements Sect's elite forces or supplies.

"It also depends on their character and aptitude," Qing Nü, however, shook her head, pouring cold water on his enthusiasm. "I fed the same elixir to both of Ming'er's Azure Swan birds, but only this one succeeded in advancing."

"Even if there's just one more, it's still a great boon for our sect. I've long envied Junior Brother for having his Yellow Dragon mount when he travels, and Junior Brother Fu also has his Immortal Wood Dragon during ordinary times. Only I lack a cool mount, and this Azure Swan bird would be quite good..."

Zhou Shengqing, by the end, had revealed his true thoughts.

He had previously traveled to the Eastern Land and seen many Nascent Soul cultivators attending the Divine Stream Deity Transformation Banquet riding various spiritual beasts, which looked incredibly impressive. After returning, Zhou Shengqing had been looking for a suitable mount for himself but hadn't found anything satisfactory.

"My wood dragon is a bit stiff in texture, so it's not comfortable as a mount."

Upon hearing this, Fu Zongjue also chimed in, expressing that if possible, he too would like a third-tier Azure Swan bird as a mount.

"These are third-tier Vitality Blood Refining Pills. When you feed them, remember to dilute them with spiritual water and feed them in batches. The medicinal effect of these pills is immensely powerful, even for peak second-tier spiritual beasts. It's best to have a beast tamer present during feeding..."

Qing Nü smiled and took a bottle from her sleeve, pouring two pills each for Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue.

"Many thanks, Sister-in-law."

Both repeatedly thanked her. After receiving the pills, they joined Chen Mobai in watching the Azure Swan bird undergo its tribulation.

With one Deity Transformation cultivator and three Nascent Soul cultivators present, the bird naturally passed its tribulation successfully without any major mishaps, advancing to the third tier.

Then, the four of them descended onto Xiaonan Mountain. Han Zhiling, who was already there, had picked a few Enlightenment Tea leaves and brewed tea. During their conversation, Chen Mobai brought up Kuzhu's return.

"Kongsang Valley? Hadn't it already been destroyed?"

Zhou Shengqing asked, a little surprised.

According to local customs, if Kongsang Valley abandoned its territory, it would be considered defunct.

"It's because Junior Brother is benevolent. If it were me, I would definitely tell Kuzhu to get lost, the farther the better."

Fu Zongjue spoke. After cultivating his Dharma Body Nascent Soul, he had created three Immortal Wood Dragons and three Six-Armed Heavenly Generals, all of which were fourth-tier puppets. When arrayed with the Dragon-General Unity formation, even ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were no match for him. His confidence was currently at its peak.

"Suppression by force will one day lead to insufficient strength and a backlash. In this world, it's better to have more friends."

Chen Mobai made this statement, then couldn't help but witness Fu Zongjue's proud Dragon-General Unity Puppet Array.

Fu Zongjue wished to contribute to the Five Elements Sect's puppet path. Since he couldn't create Immortal Azure Dragons, he planned to integrate the Immortal Puppet Technique and the Six Ding Six Jia Puppet Technique.

As soon as the tribulation clouds dispersed, three long, wood-grained dragons, carrying armor puppets overflowing with golden light, formed a solemn battle array encircling the entire Xiaonan Mountain.

Chen Mobai, adopting a teaching mindset, demonstrated the Blazing Sun Slash and Extreme Sun Slash, explaining them to Han Zhiling beside him while sipping tea.

Fu Zongjue, who had been sparring with Zhou Shengqing, had never witnessed such techniques. Chen Mobai, with merely nine Blazing Sun Slashes, left him sweating profusely.

The battle array formed by the Dragon-General puppets was full of flaws in Chen Mobai's eyes, but he only pointed them out without fully breaking them, wanting to save Fu Zongjue some face.

"No more, no more, Junior Brother," Fu Zongjue conceded after three cups of tea, unable to bear it any longer.

"Did you see it clearly?" Chen Mobai smiled and stopped, turning to Han Zhiling beside him. She nodded, her face thoughtful, evidently having gained a deeper understanding of the Crimson Flame Sword Scripture.

Fu Zongjue had no psychological burden about losing to Chen Mobai. He was already thinking about how to improve his Dragon-General Unity Puppet Technique.

Chen Mobai affirmed his direction. After personally evaluating it, he believed it could even contend with ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, encouraging Fu Zongjue to proceed boldly.

"Senior Brother, I recall that the Six-Armed Heavenly Generals' battle array has its maximum power when there are six puppets. You should create twice that number of Dragon-General puppets. I'll inquire with the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Sect and the Daoist Virtue Sect to see if either of them possesses a method for refining fifth-tier Six-Armed Heavenly God puppets."

As Chen Mobai finished speaking, Fu Zongjue's eyes lit up.

Due to the lack of Azure Dragon Wood, Fu Zongjue couldn't cultivate the Immortal Puppet Technique to create fifth-tier Great Azure Dragons, which meant his puppet master rank had been stuck at the fourth tier. If he could create Six-Armed Heavenly Generals, he might be able to re-establish the grandeur of the Eastern Land's Imperial Court's Twelve Golden-Armored Heavenly Guardians.

"Junior Brother, I'll trouble you with this matter."

Fu Zongjue was exceptionally pleased when he left.

Chen Mobai stayed on Xiaonan Mountain for several more days, ensuring that Zhuo Ming, who was in seclusion, was indeed transforming towards the fourth tier in physique and vital energy before he confidently departed with Qing Nü.

Just as he was preparing to return to the Immortal Sect, shocking news arrived from Dongyi.

The Golden Crow Immortal City had been breached by the Black Flood Dragon Royal Court.
