Chapter 1460: Chapter 766 Golden Core Eighth Layer_3

After all, compared to other old Golden Core cultivators of the Five Elements Sect, Yin Qingmei was personally nurtured by him. She worked tirelessly to help him condense Pure Yang Purple Qi, proving to be loyal, trustworthy, and obedient, worthy of further cultivation.

Next, Chen Mobai provided some guidance on Zhuo Ming’s cultivation.

This beloved disciple, relying on the fourth-rank Fairy Peach Wine, had already reached Foundation Establishment Completion; however, this was not very stable, so the next step was to refine her Spiritual Power and solidify her foundations.

However, Chen Mobai was not worried about this.

Over the years, Zhuo Ming’s attention had shifted from Liu Jia Mountain to the entire Rainbow County. With the development of the Dark Water, she began large-scale desert reclamation projects.

Her goal was to transform the desertified Rainbow County back into lush green mountains and waters.

In this process, her realm would naturally become consolidated.

What delighted Chen Mobai the most was the Nirvana Dan within Zhuo Ming’s body had been significantly assimilated, her Ninefold Law Body fourth level had already reached completion, only lacking the last opportunity to advance.

If she were to break through to the fifth level, that would be equivalent to the physical strength of a Rank-3.

Chen Mobai could guide her to forcefully step into it, but after some thought, he decided it would be better for Zhuo Ming to achieve it herself.

“Master, the Purple Jade Rice we started sowing is also about to mature; do you want to go have a look?”

Just as Chen Mobai was preparing to leave, Zhuo Ming suddenly spoke up with another piece of good news.

This Purple Jade Rice was a hybrid species that Zhuo Ming had developed using Dari Purple Rice and Jade Bud Rice, a Rank-3 lower-grade Spirit Rice. Under the Universal Illumination Divine Light of the Haotian Mirror, it only needed ten years to mature.

“Good, let’s go have a look!”

Chen Mobai truly loved Agricultural Studies. Upon hearing this, he immediately became very interested and flew with the two women to where the Purple Jade Rice was planted at Cangshan Lake.

Looking down from the sky, there was a neatly arranged, fertile oasis. The pale purple rice shimmering under the sunlight, glowing splendidly as if stars had descended to this piece of land.

The rice stalks hung low, swaying in the wind, and the air was filled with the fragrance of Spirit Rice mixed with the scents of soil and lake water, refreshing the heart and spirit. Chen Mobai even used the Listening with Empty Valley Echo to hear the joyous whispers of the bountiful harvest.

He landed upon the oasis, looking at the plump rice grains, he gently grabbed a handful, feeling each partially hulled Purple Jade Rice in his palm, and couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

With the arrival of spring this year, this vast expanse of Rank-3 Spirit Rice would mature.

He sprinkled a bit of his hundredfold diluted Water of Ten Thousand Transformations, and soon, this small patch of Spirit Rice received enough energy supply to overcome the final barrier and mature completely.

Upon Chen Mobai’s instructions, Zhuo Ming and Yin Qingmei harvested the acre of Purple Jade Rice, then caught two fish from Cangshan Lake and began to cook rice and fish.

After the three of them were full, Chen Mobai took the remaining Purple Jade Rice away, planning to give it to Qing Nu.

Since this Purple Jade Rice was derived from a hybrid of Dari Purple Rice, he thought it might have the potential to help cultivators break through bottlenecks; however, the exact effects needed scientific research and analysis.

He wondered if Qing Nu could use the equipment obtained from the Immortal Gate to conduct some analytical tests.

As it happened, she was researching the Breakthrough Barrier Pill, which might provide some inspiration.

When returning to Northern Abyss City, Chen Mobai also remembered to stop by and check on Luo Yixuan.

Luo Yixuan had also reached Foundation Establishment Completion. If not for Chen Mobai having her wait to complete the development of the Dark Water before undergoing Core Formation, she might have already become impatient.

However, within the next three to four years, the Dark Water in Rainbow County could be completely developed according to Chen Mobai’s planning and flow into Cold Jade Lake.

By then, Cold Jade Lake would become the endpoint for water veins of five counties–Xiao, Yan, Hong, Lei, and Shuang. Hosting so many water systems, coupled with Water Element Mysterious Stone, this location could easily upgrade to a fourth rank mid-grade Water Vein, which would also be the best opportunity for Luo Yixuan’s Core Formation.

Under Chen Mobai’s governance, the entire northern part of the Eastern Wilderness brimmed with life, forming a beautiful and hopeful picture of bountiful harvests.

Back in Northern Abyss City, Chen Mobai met his eldest disciple, Liu Wenbo, who had just returned from Dongwu.

He brought back a Fire Attribute heterodox Gold Core.

However, he came bearing some bad news.

The Sun family of Dongwu, aware that they had commissioned Zhang Zibo to refine a heterodox Gold Core, expressed that bypassing them had broken the rules. From that point on, if they still wanted to commission Zhang Zibo for refinement, they must go through the Sun family.

However, since the Five Elements Sect was considered an ally of the Sun family, they decided to overlook these two instances of Gold Core refining.

This was also giving face to Chen Mobai.

“I’ll write a letter that you can deliver to Nu Jiang, let him also be aware of this and see what exactly the Sun family means by this.”

Previously, because they had refined the Infant-Feeding Elixir, Chen Mobai had purchased a Tian Lan Silver Light Grass from the Sun family through Nu Jiang, which counted as owing a favor to them. He originally thought that both parties were allies.

The heterodox Gold Core was a minor matter, but the surge of monsters in Cloud Dream Marsh required sincere cooperation from both their families to suppress.

Chen Mobai hoped that this wouldn’t affect their relations with Nu Jiang.

After Liu Wenbo left, Chen Mobai also invited Shen Shanqing from the Sky Meal Building over to discuss this issue.

“After last year’s withdrawal of the demonic beast tide from Cloud Dream Marsh, most of the Sun family’s experts have returned to their ancestral land, apparently for some major affair. Now in charge of the Sun family’s affairs is their third-in-command Sun Huangling. She’s the younger sister of Sun Huangji and Sun Huanglong, slightly less talented with a heterodox Gold Core, thus quite sensitive to this kind of resources.”
