I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1255: Chapter 690: Military Manifestation Sutra, Water Vein and Fire Vein Submission Chapter 1255: Chapter 690: Military Manifestation Sutra, Water Vein and Fire Vein Submission “Master, I wish to join the Alchemy Department.”

Facing Chen Mobai’s question, Han Zhiling thought for a moment and expressed her most sincere desire.

“To follow in your father’s footsteps, eh? Good, the Xiao Nanshan Lineage just so happens to be lacking a skilled alchemist.”

Chen Mobai responded with approval upon hearing this.

The Divine Wood Sect’s only shortcoming right now is the absence of a Rank-4 alchemist.

Zeng Woyou’s potential had been exhausted; this was his life’s limit.

Yan Jinye had been nurtured for a long time, but according to Chen Mobai’s observation, he was likely only going to reach Foundation Establishment.

Now that the Divine Wood Sect had acquired the Mysterious Arcane Elixir Scripture, which included Rank-4 alchemy techniques, it was time to focus on training someone.

It so happened that Han Zhiling had an exceptional Fire Spirit Root and was also his own disciple. If successfully trained, there would no longer be a need to seek outsiders to refine items such as Golden Liquid Jade Pills.

Not long after, Zeng Woyou, having been notified by Gu Yan, arrived at Xiao Nanshan.

Over the years, Yan Jinye had successfully refined several batches of legitimate Foundation Building Pills. As Zeng Woyou aged, the head of the Alchemy Department planned to entrust the refining of the batches required for the upcoming major sect competition to this disciple.

Zeng Woyou intended to fight for advancement in his cultivation in the last years of his life, striving to experience the realm of Core Formation.

He had shared this aspiration several times with Yue Zutao, the sect manager, and even thought that Chen Mobai had summoned him because of this.

When he learned that Han Zhiling wanted to enter the Alchemy Department, and that he, as the head of the department, was to mentor her, Zeng Woyou naturally nodded in agreement, “Sect Leader has obtained the Longevity Sect’s Elixir Scripture; your alchemy skills are the best in the sect. It is indeed a joyous occasion that sister Han wishes to inherit your mantle.”

Although Chen Mobai had never personally demonstrated his alchemy prowess within the sect, Zeng Woyou knew well that ten of himself put together would still not match him in alchemy; thus, his words came from the heart.

After arranging things for Han Zhiling, Chen Mobai dealt with other accumulated miscellaneous matters within the sect, then proceeded to Northern Abyss City to preside over the major affairs.

Jiang Zongheng happened to be in Rock Country at the time. Hearing of Chen Mobai’s arrival, he immediately reported the progress of the unification effort of the mortal realm.

After the death of King Han, the eldest and second princes had begun fighting over the throne, causing previously reclaimed areas like Yun Country, Rain Country, and Lei Nation to fall into rebellion once again, tearing the vast Jian Country apart in an instant.

King Zhao of Rock Country escaped the disaster of national annihilation and immediately showcased the demeanor of a sovereign ruler!

He took advantage of the second prince’s retreat with King Han’s body to reclaim the strategically lost territories of his country.

Afterwards, King Zhao originally planned to regain Xiao Country and Rainbow Country, but Duan Shuyu suggested focusing the military forces on seizing Lei Nation instead.

Because Lei Nation controlled the pass between the plateau and the plains, Duan Shuyu had managed to defend impeccably against an army several times larger than his own, thanks to this advantage. If it weren’t for the surprise attack from behind, Jian Country’s forces might still be stuck outside the walls of Lei Nation.

Once Lei Nation was secured and the pass controlled, it would be easier to recover and watch the internal strife of Jian Country unfold.

Xiao Country and Rainbow Country would inevitably fall into Rock Country’s hands as well.

King Zhao accepted the advice and appointed Duan Shuyu as the Great General.

During the time Chen Mobai was secluded for refining the Rank-4 Immortal Peach Fruit, Rock Country had already conquered the entire Eastern Desolation Plateau and was recuperating and preparing the military for a unified grand battle.

“The very image of a ruler!”

After finishing his briefing, Chen Mobai commented on King Zhao, then inquired about this Duan Shuyu.
