Chapter 1745: Chapter 898: 5th Tier Azure Dragon Wood_3

It’s a pity that Yin Qingmei’s Lifebound Spirit Plant is the Emerald Phoenix Tree, which cannot be changed into Everlife Wood.

However, Chen Mobai had another idea, which was whether he could use “The Union of Differences” method to merge Everlife Wood into his own Lifebound Spirit Plant to achieve a similar effect.

After thinking about it, he tried as well.

It was indeed very simple, but the Lifebound Spirit Plant was only one of the conditions for Everlife Wood to advance into Azure Dragon Wood. The most crucial aspect was the nurturing of True Qi cultivated through the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture.

However, it wasn’t without a solution.

For instance, one could use the Practice Together Technique to harness Yin Qingmei’s True Qi.

But even though Yin Qingmei had a Heavenly Spiritual Root, it would take at least a hundred years for her to undergo Nascent Soul Formation. Chen Mobai estimated that in that time, he could master many Rank-5 methods.

So this idea had to be temporarily shelved for now, to be reconsidered in the future.

Since the Wood Origin Golden Core Pill was still in a state of sealed furnace nurturing, Chen Mobai took Qing Nu with him to Giant Tree Ridge to observe the condensing of the Rank-4 Tree Seed.

The Longevity Scripture was a cultivation technique simplified from the Qing Emperor’s Longevity Scripture by Yi Yuan True Monarch. However, many aspects of it were only theoretical derivations by this Ascended Monk and hadn’t been practically tested, so whether the Rank-4 Tree Seed method could succeed was still unknown.

Nevertheless, Chen Mobai leaned towards its success, given the realm of an Ascended Monk speaks for itself.

Under the watchful eyes of many Golden Core Cultivators from the Five Elements Sect, Zhuo Ming appeared calm and composed, working with Zhou Shengqing to cast the Tree Seed method over the tallest Everlife Wood at the center of Giant Tree Ridge.

Although Zhuo Ming’s cultivation level was insufficient, she took the lead this time, with Zhou Shengqing mainly providing Longevity True Qi, according to her instructions, casting the Restrictions at correct time nodes to condense the Tree Seed into the Everlife Wood.

The Spiritual Energy contained in a Spirit Plant at the Fourth Rank Peak is extremely vast. Although it couldn’t compare to the Great Dao Tree in the Divine Tree Secret Realm, it far surpassed both Chen Mobai and Zhou Shengqing.

Yet under the Tree Seed’s Restrictions, this Everlife Wood offered no resistance, allowing Zhou Shengqing and Zhuo Ming to condense and compress it step by step from towering above the firmament until it was eventually compressed to a fist-sized deep green mass.

“Hahaha, excellent, excellent!”

Seeing the Rank-4 Tree Seed take shape, Zhou Shengqing couldn’t help but burst into laughter, then without caring about his own True Qi consumption, he directly performed Void Talisman drawing.

The Heavenly Wood Talisman descended, and soon the fist-sized Rank-4 Tree Seed began to emit a vast green light, then under the watchful eyes of the surrounding people, it quickly grew into an Everlife Wood about one-tenth its original size.

This scene made Zhou Shengqing a bit embarrassed, as it indicated that he hadn’t fully unleashed the power of this Rank-4 Peak Tree Seed.

“It seems that Senior Brother’s True Qi consumption was quite substantial in condensing the Tree Seed.”

Seeing this, Chen Mobai spoke up to smooth things over for him, and Fu Zongjue and others nearby all nodded in agreement.

“Cough, cough, ten days and nights without rest has been somewhat exhausting; after I recover my Elemental Energy, I’ll work on it a bit more, and perhaps I might manage to fill in the last part of the Longevity Scripture’s Nascent Soul Realm.”

Zhou Shengqing readily accepted the excuse, speaking while waving his sleeves to retract his domain, turning it into a deep green Tree Seed, which he stored back in the Storage Bag.

“Senior Brother has worked hard. However, having gathered so many nephews and nieces isn’t easy either. Since Senior Brother is a pioneer of the Longevity Scripture, why not give a lecture on the Dao?”

Noticing the rare opportunity, Chen Mobai wanted Zhou Shengqing, this Nascent Soul Cultivator, to give a lecture with so many Golden Core Cultivators of the Wood Vein present.

“Junior Brother is indeed a Great Sage and Good Teacher, so I shall humbly oblige.”

If it were outsiders, Zhou Shengqing wouldn’t give a lecture, but those present were Golden Core cultivators of the Wood Vein in the Five Elements Sect; they were the cream of the direct lineage, so he managed to overcome his inner hurdle, and sat down by the root pit left after the Everlife Wood was taken, starting to expound on his understanding of the Longevity Scripture.

Although Zhou Shengqing was a Legal Body Nascent Soul, he was the only one who had cultivated the Longevity Scripture to the Nascent Soul Realm, and though he hadn’t been able to advance his realm in these years, he had repeatedly revised this Wood Attribute cultivation technique from a top-down perspective, making it difficult for even Chen Mobai, with the eyes of the Immortal Gate perspective, to find flaws.

Since he was addressing Golden Core Cultivators, Zhou Shengqing shared his cultivation experiences during his Golden Core stage and insights from transitioning from Golden Core to Nascent Soul.

Previously, these transmittings of the Dao and teaching only happened when the older generation of cultivators were about to pass away, or when a younger generation was about to break through the realm.

But under Chen Mobai’s influence in recent years, exchanges among top-level cultivators in the Five Elements Sect had begun to become more candid.

This time, Zhou Shengqing pulled out his most reserved knowledge, some of which were an enlightening empowerment to Fu Zongjue and others, leaving others suddenly enlightened, and still others frowning in contemplation…

Even Chen Mobai found himself benefiting greatly, gaining insights into the cultivation journey of Eastern Wasteland Cultivators from Golden Core to Nascent Soul. This would allow him to provide guidance to others in the future with more references.

After Zhou Shengqing finished his lecture, Chen Mobai was also eager, and went on stage to share some of his own understandings of cultivation.

“I’ll briefly talk about some matters to pay attention to during cultivation at the Golden Core Realm. Although these might not seem paramount, they can have a significant impact during Nascent Soul Formation…”
