“Thank you for giving me this opportunity for inference.”

Shen Jianxiu repeatedly expressed her gratitude. After getting the result of the Foundation Establishment treasure, she could finally calm her worries.

“Not at all, I also got what I wanted.”

Chen Mobai shook his head. Perhaps to others, the opportunity to infer a Foundation Establishment treasure was invaluable, but to him, it was just a matter of delegation.

After chatting for a while, they parted ways.

Lately, Chen Mobai was busy transforming his Five Elements Cultivation spiritual power. Usually, he stayed in isolation within the cave dwelling he had rented during his previous magic duel. He had re-leased it for another six months.

The ‘Pure Yang Scroll,’ indeed one of the seven Divinity Transformation cultivation techniques of the immortal world, produced a much purer spiritual power than the Five Elements Cultivation, and its operation routes were also more complicated.

It was during this time that Chen Mobai realized that changing cultivation techniques was even more challenging than rebuilding them from scratch.

If you were to start anew, you could calmly transition to a new method after dissipating your spiritual powers.

However, transforming the spiritual power cultivated by one technique into another involved harnessing much more effort and a firmer understanding of the respective techniques, compared to re-cultivating them.

If it weren’t for the crimson-robed real-person supervising him and teaching him how to accomplish the transformation of the first wisp of spiritual power, Chen Mobai would probably have burnt up months with his talent and comprehension. Moreover, he could possibly face irreversible problems due to a distorted understanding of the techniques.

After completing the first transformation of the ‘Pure Yang Scroll’ spiritual power, Chen Mobai overcame the most challenging beginning. The rest was only a test of patience.

Thanks to the Immortal School allowing all students to cultivate the Five Elements Cultivation, which had balanced and neutral spiritual power, it could be transitioned into any other technique without obstructions. Otherwise, Chen Mobai could only restart his cultivation or continue with Five Elements Cultivation as his only path if he wished to cultivate the ‘Pure Yang Scroll’.’

But if that were the case, Chen Mobai would definitely walk this path to the end and exclusively cultivate Five Elements Cultivation.

Worse comes to worst, he would follow in the footsteps of Qing Ping and come out victorious through superior realms.

One night, after completing the spiritual power transformation, Chen Mobai, equipped with a newly purchased batch of talismans, once again transported himself to the Tianhe Realm using the Turtle Treasure.

Only after using the Spirit Seeking Talisman to ensure there were no demonic beasts nearby did Chen Mobai cautiously lift the lid of the cave opening.

Upon stepping out, he sighed at the sight of the still and silent Green Light Island under the starry sky.

Unsure if the Black Plague Birds would come to forage at night, Chen Mobai carefully produced three talismans and placed them on himself. They concealed his aura, hid his body, and allowed him to float.

Last time, he only visited two places – the Green Light Island center and the spot where his old team had guarded a Spirit Tree.

Despite the large scale of Green Light Island and the havoc wreaked by demonic beasts, there must be some fortunate survivors, he thought.

Chen Mobai wanted to know what exactly had transpired.

Hovering, he set off from an abandoned wooden hut like a floating cloud, heading first for the Green Light Island center, which housed the Divine Wood Sect’s Teleportation Array.

All along the way, countless broken and shattered magic artifacts lay scattered.

Without a storage bag, it was a pity that all these items couldn’t be transported back to Earth. Even if he sold them to the Earth Masters who recycled scrap, it would still amount to a considerable number of Good Deed Points.

If he had the right connections with Artifact Refiners, these broken artifacts could indeed be melted down and reprocessed.

Over the past century, prices for all raw materials in the Immortal World, whether precious metals or gemstones, had skyrocketed.

However, the origin of these broken artifacts seemed suspicious, and to avoid exposure, Chen Mobai abandoned the idea of collecting scraps.

Reluctantly, he traveled all the way from the ruined marketplace at the bottom of the island to the teleportation hall at the top, picking and choosing, gathering, and discarding. But all the artifacts were utterly ruined, devoid of spiritual light.

Just as he was about to give up and head towards the hall, a piece of red string caked with mud in a crevice between Qing Shi stones caught his attention.

He reached his hand out, pinching the end of the string and tugged lightly.

Ding Ling Ling!

The crisp and pleasant sound of the bell calmed Chen Mobai’s anxious heart.

A faint, creamy-white jade-like luster caught his eye.

It was a pair of exquisite bells made of white jade, strung together on a red thread writhed into multiple strands.

Chen Mobai immediately played a Quiet Talisman, fearing the bell’s sound might draw the attention of the Black Plague Bird, while also hiding in a secluded spot.

Although this was the center of the island, far away from the reefs where the demonic beasts resided, the bell’s sound absolutely couldn’t reach there.

However, it was better to be save rather than sorry. These Black Plague Birds inherently controlled swift winds, what if the vibrations from the bell’s sound was captured by some creature out of the ordinary?

Thinking of this, the always cautious Chen Mobai didn’t hesitate anymore.

He returned the way he came, back in his burrow, and hit the [Return to City] button.

There was a flicker of silver light.

Holding the white jade bell in his hand, Chen Mobai had returned to his cave dwelling within the Cinnabarite Institute.

He used the Cleaning Technique, and instantly the bell stained with mud regained its luster, shiny and transparent.

The red thread stringing it was especially vibrant under the contrast of the white jade color, as red as if it was on fire.

As a boy, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but fondle this exquisite magic artifact.

He lightly shook it, and the two bells instantly emitted clear, pleasing, and suppressively annoying sounds, making him extremely uncomfortable.

“It seems that the two bells serve different purposes. One should soothe the mind, and the other might cause irritation.”

Chen Mobai didn’t dare to infuse spiritual power into them for a test. What if the power of this magic artifact surpassed his imagination and left his senses damaged?

He had to find a professional.

He took out his phone, took a dozen photos from all angles of the jade bells, and sent them to Wu Wan.

The next day.

Wu Wan showed up at the Cinnabarite Institute in person.

“Master Wu, why did you come here personally?”

Chen Mobai was very surprised when he opened the door to see him.

“Now that Brother Chen is a disciple of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, your status is unlike the past. It’s my honor that you’d think of me. I couldn’t possibly keep you waiting.”

The way Wu Wan carried himself now was completely different, which made Chen Mobai feel a bit uncomfortable.

“Please, let’s keep things as they were before. You make me uncomfortable like this.”

Chen Mobai immediately welcomed Wu Wan in, took the white jade bells from beside his pillow, and casually passed them across the table to him.

“Body like white grease, radiance within blue.”

Wu Wan first visually inspected it, gave his evaluation of the jade’s color and luster, then geared gloves to finally dare take it and observe closely.

After a while, he exclaimed and gave another four-word comment.

“White, transparent, fine, moist.”

Seeing Wu Wan’s unprecedented expression, Chen Mobai knew this magic artifact might be extraordinary. He must’ve hit the jackpot.

“Master Wu, how do you grade the quality of these bells, to what level can you appraise?”

Now that he was rich, Chen Mobai naturally hoped Wu Wan could thoroughly appraise these bells, preferably reverse engineer the refining and usage methods, so he can truly master them.

“If I’m not wrong, this magic artifact’s raw material should be Rank-2 ‘Flowing Water Jade’, but the refiner’s skills were subpar, only reaching high-quality Rank-1. What a waste..”
