Chapter 1743: Chapter 898: 5th Rank Azure Dragon Wood

Zhou Shengqing was also excited after hearing about what Chen Mobai had done.

After all, as a Legal Body Nascent Soul, his realm could not be elevated, so if he wanted to increase his combat power, he could only rely on external means.

As a perfect match for the Longevity Scripture, the Tree Seed served as a Magic Artifact, Spell, and even a Formation. If he had a Rank-4 Tree Seed, he wouldn’t have been so easily defeated when he encountered Ancestor Jin Feng.

“Junior Brother, it’s enough for me to condense the Everlife Wood from my arena into a Tree Seed.”

However, after carefully considering, Zhou Shengqing felt that condensing two Everlife Woods into a Tree Seed was too wasteful. Even if he had a top-tier Rank-4 Tree Seed, he would only have ordinary Nascent Soul power at most.

If one Tree Seed couldn’t block an opponent, then two would just be giving away treasure, so it’s better to leave them in the sect. In case someone uses the Longevity Scripture to form a Nascent Soul later, it could provide another choice.

“That works too, Senior Brother. You condense yours first, and I can wait until the Eastern Wilderness has a Fifth Rank Spirit Vein to discuss mine, maybe I’ll even transform it into a Rank-5 Everlife Wood.”

Chen Mobai nodded after hearing this and shared his thoughts.

“Are there still undiscovered Fifth Rank Spirit Veins in the Eastern Wilderness?”

Not expecting this, Zhou Shengqing was shocked by his words and asked in disbelief.

“No wild ones, but I recently went into seclusion and mastered the Formation of the Longevity Sect, realizing the method to merge many Spirit Veins to form an extensive one…”

Chen Mobai roughly explained to Zhou Shengqing the method of merging numerous Spirit Veins into a super large one, which made Zhou Shengqing feel even more awe towards the Ancient Longevity Sect for possessing such a method to create high-ranking Spirit Veins.

Considering that the Heavenly Sovereign achieved Dao through Spirit Wood, Zhou Shengqing had no doubts about the method Chen Mobai mentioned of merging trees into a forest.

“So, Junior Brother, where do you plan to place this Fifth Rank Spirit Vein in the future?”

Zhou Shengqing asked a detailed question and, when he learned it could be placed anywhere within the range covered by the Mysterious Five Elements Array, he asked with a bit of personal interest.

“Naturally, it will be the Giant Tree Ridge Spirit Vein of our Wood Vein!”

Chen Mobai answered confidently, and Zhou Shengqing was relieved to hear this.

In theory, the core of the Mysterious Five Elements Array is best suited to be where the Earth Element Spiritual Pivot is located, as this Fifth Rank Great Formation aligns with the Primordial Dao Fruit.

However, with something as crucial as a Fifth Rank Spirit Vein, Chen Mobai certainly had to consider his foundation. He achieved such success thanks to the strong support of the Wood Vein, and that’s why he chose to upgrade the Giant Tree Ridge to a Fifth Rank Spirit Vein.

After discussing this matter, the two talked about the distribution of the Wood Origin Golden Core Pill.

First, they naturally prioritized their people.

Because the Foundation Establishment Completion practitioners of the Wood Vein were few, not even ten, they were considered lucky enough for each to receive one pill.

They listed names: Chu Zuoshu, Yi Shaoqing, Meng Hong, Ma Wuniang, Quan Shanlin.

Among them, Meng Hong had failed in forming the Golden Core from the Heterodox Golden Core last time; Zhou Shengqing had used most of his spiritual power to save his life, depleting his essence. While he was still at the Foundation Establishment Completion realm, it was essentially impossible for him to attempt forming a Golden Core again.

If he tried, it would undoubtedly end with death.

So they only needed four Wood Origin Golden Core Pills. However, within the Wood Vein, there were many approaching Foundation Establishment Completion, like Yan Yuanhao, Mu Yuan, Dong Xuanze, and Wei Liuting.

Besides Mu Yuan, who was young, the other three were cultivators who volunteered to guard a country during the time of Chen Mobai’s new policy.

Yan Yuanhao, in particular, had diligently worked in Rainbow County for decades, gaining a share of the virtues from managing sand and opening rivers. Chen Mobai had guided him a few times, and these years of hard work in Body Forging and consuming Spirit Rice while eliminating Dan Poison gave him a decent chance of forming a Golden Core.

However, as he had not yet reached Foundation Establishment Completion, they could only let them know about the existence of the Wood Origin Golden Core Pill and encourage them to strive in cultivation.

But Chen Mobai worried that they might take risks trying to secure the Golden Core medicine, compromising their foundation. After discussing with Zhou Shengqing, they decided to stick to the previous rules.

First, list four Wood Origin Golden Core Pills in the Spirit Treasure Pavilion for Chu Zuoshu and the others to exchange.

“It’s just a pity that the other four meridians have no Foundation Establishment Completion cultivators with Wood Attribute cultivation techniques.”

Zhou Shengqing expressed some regret but couldn’t hide the smile on his face. Although the Five Elements Meridians had merged, he naturally hoped his Wood Vein would become stronger.

“It wouldn’t be good for us to take everything for the Wood Vein. Since the Wood Element gives birth to Fire, if Junior Niece Tan Rong from the Fire Vein is willing, I think she deserves another chance.”

Chen Mobai had a favorable impression of Tan Rong, who cared for him in the Fire Truth Palace. He felt regret for her failing to form a Golden Core after consuming the Golden Liquid Jade Pill last time.

Although all ten Wood Origin Golden Core Pills could be allocated to his Wood Vein, the other four veins wouldn’t complain, but they’d likely have their opinions.

As the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, it’s important for Chen Mobai to let all disciples see the hope of advancement as much as possible.

This underpinning of the Immortal Gate system offers hope, which fosters effort and progress, driving the development of the Five Elements Sect and even the whole Eastern Wilderness.

“Junior Brother can decide, but we can’t infinitely grant opportunities for Golden Core formation.”
