After returning from Building One, Chen Mobai spent an entire night reflecting alone at home.
In the end, he decided to fully accept Che Yucheng’s guidance.
He looked at the Qi Cultivation chapter of the Pure Yang Scroll on his phone, sighing.
It would have to be set aside for now.
However, the Pure Yang Daoist Body could carry on with the continuous induction of Spirit Stones.
Once the decision was made, his cultivation progressed very smoothly.
Chen Mobai directly converted the spiritual power vortex of Five Elements Cultivation into the spiritual power of the Endless Life Sutra, and within two short months, he had practiced the technique up to Rank-3 QI Cultivation.
He was keen on advancing to the fourth level of Qi Cultivation in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, the leave of absence from the Divine Wood Sect came to an end.
The three-month-long stint of log chopping at the Bud Hall was over, and they could choose to develop their own cave dwelling or go to one of the three Halls and twelve Divisions to deepen their studies, earning Spirit Stones and building connections in the process.
The others were all worrying about how to get into a good department.
Such as the Alchemy Department, the Artifact Refining Department, and the Talisman Making Department, the three hottest departments.
As long as one could get in, even as a menial worker, the cost of purchasing necessary cultivation materials would be much cheaper, even at cost price.
But compared to the rest who were agonizing over gains and losses, Chen Mobai was calm and collected.
Ever since he was given advice by Che Yucheng, he had made up his mind to let go of all distractions and focus on cultivating the Endless Life Sutra, with Foundation Establishment as his primary goal.
Joining one of the three Halls and twelve Divisions was to learn a skill and earn Spirit Stones for cultivation.
But he was not short of ways to make money.
As for building connections, Chen Mobai believed that as long as he became stronger, he would eventually become the one that others needed to ingratiate themselves with.
So, he did not submit applications to any Division, and after discussing with Yuan Chiye, he claimed three mu of Spirit Field at the Spirit Plant Division of the sect.
The Divine Wood Sect has plenty of Spiritual Lands so long as disciples are willing to cultivate them, the sect will even subsidize with Sect Contribution Points.
Harvesting a catty of Spirit Rice yields one Sect Contribution Point.
On average, a mu of Spirit Field matures in one year and produces one hundred catties of Spirit Rice, which is considered satisfactory.
The following year, the sect will continue to freely entrust you with the cultivation of the Spirit Field, and you may even claim more mu to cultivate.
Chen Mobai felt that the “Agricultural Studies” he had chosen as an elective at Dance Tool Dao Academy, would prove to be highly rewarding here.
“Junior brother Chen, living a reclusive life in the countryside is a good way of life, but sometimes, cultivation requires competition!”
When packing up to leave the Bud Hall, Yuan Chiye made a point to come and see him off.
Chen Mobai knew he always expected great things from him.
He was a direct subordinate of E Yun, who lived up to everyone’s expectations by returning to the sect two months ago, took the Foundation Building Pill, and succeeded in one fell swoop.
After Foundation Establishment, E Yun was consolidating his realm, but probably within a year, he would be dispatched to Yun Meng Ze to reopen the market destroyed by the Demonic beasts, thereby creating a new source of revenue for the sect.
This task would undoubtedly require a substantial number of personnel.
Disciples like Yuan Chiye, who had been by E Yun’s side from the beginning, would undoubtedly continue to follow him to Yun Meng Ze.
Chen Mobai was originally seen as a promising force among the younger generation. After several interactions, his handling of affairs greatly satisfied Yuan Chiye, but his temperament was too indifferent. At the age of twenty, he was already thinking about retiring to a rural life.
Still, he had spent some time nurturing him, so Yuan Chiye came over to persuade once more.
“Senior brother Yuan, for the time being, I have enough Spirit Stones and don’t need to compete for more. However, I will always remember the kindness of you and senior brother E. If there is ever a need for me, please don’t hesitate to ask.”
Chen Mobai also knew that it was E Yun who had helped him escape from the pursuit of the South Mountain Thieves, and he remembered this life-saving grace.
“To each their own aspirations, then, take care, junior brother.”
Yuan Chiye did not say more, gifting Chen Mobai a small, delicate hoe as a parting gift.
This was a small magic artifact for weeding, and seemed to have been used by him.
However, Chen Mobai was still extremely grateful.
“Brother Chen, keep in touch.”
When he left, many new disciples from South Creek also came to see him off. Liu Wenbo was still polite and respectful.
“Disciple Liu, you handle things well. I will leave them in your hands after I go farming.”
The new disciples from South Creek, during the three months when Chen Mobai was retreating, basically all found their own paths and had already left Bud Hall.
For example, Zhuo Ming, due to her outstanding symbol-making skills, became an apprentice in a symbol shop in the sect’s Fang Market. While applying to the Symbol Making Department, she was also slowly learning and improving.
Apart from fighting, the remaining new disciples of the sect who have no other skills proficiencies, also decided to follow Liu Wenbo. The latter also chose to follow E Yun and, under his management, joined the Spirit Beasts Department.
A year later, Liu Wenbo will be taking this group of disciples from South Creek to Yun Meng Ze to open a new market with E Yun.
After learning about this, Chen Mobai immediately renounced his position as the leader of this generation of South Creek to fully concentrate on Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment, also to lend some help to E Yun.
After the handover was complete, he left feeling much lighter.
Giant Tree Ridge was sparsely populated on its vast terrain.
With a Godspeed Talisman attached to him, Chen Mobai travelled for two hours before finally reaching the three-acre Spirit Field assigned to him by the sect.
This Spirit Field was opened in the woodland, and Chen Mobai could still see twenty odd tree stumps in the field that had not been completely cleared away.
The boundary was marked by a circle of Red Sun Trees that had not been cut down.
After walking around and measuring the spiritual energy value with his phone, he found that in the very center of the Spirit Field, there was surprisingly a lower-grade Rank-2 Spirit Vein Aura.
“What a waste.”
Generally, a lower-grade Rank-2 Spirit Vein could nourish a ten-acre Spirit Field, but the Divine Wood Sect had only casually opened up three acres here.
Additionally, the previous claimant left unknowingly, and now the Spirit Field was overrun with weeds. The distribution of spiritual energy was uneven, and even some snakes and insects had taken over several spots where the spiritual energy was strong.
Chen Mobai immediately activated the Needle box. The flying golden needles killed all the snakes and rats, and then, at the point where the spiritual power was most vigorous, he released a Wooden House Talisman.
He was about to enter the house when he noticed the sound of buzzing mosquitoes. Swarms of them were flying out of the woods towards his wooden house.
“Just in time to test this magic artifact.”
Chen Mobai’s eyes lit up, and he took out a pair of white jade bells strung together with a red rope from his storage bag and gently shook one of them.
Ding ding dong dong!
The sound waves spread out, and all these mosquitoes fell onto the Spirit Field as if they had lost their souls before they could even get close.
After ringing six consecutive times, no more insects or mosquitoes came out of the Red Sun Forest.
Chen Mobai nodded in satisfaction, then entered the house and closed the door, returning to the Land of Yuan Star.
The following day, after the agricultural studies course at the Dance Tool Dao Academy ended, Chen Mobai took his notebook to the teacher to ask about farming problems.
“Oh, you mean you want to plant a few small things for practice. That’s excellent, come, come with me to the Daoist Academy’s experimental field. I’ll explain slowly there.”
This teacher named Lin Wenkang was a Rank-3 Spirit Plant Master.
Seeing that Chen Mobai, a student who usually performed poorly, suddenly started working hard, he felt that his teaching had had an effect, so he enthusiastically led Chen Mobai to the classroom outside..
