I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 538: Chapter 362: Qualification of Deification_2

After all, they are now allies. Without hesitation, Xiahou Weihuan agreed.

“Meet me at the usual place tonight. I’ll revise our tactics. Mingqing and I will pave the way for your duel. I hope your Sword Sha won’t disappoint us.”

Upon hearing Lou Fengcheng’s words, Xiahou Weihuan confidently clenched his fists and declared with an assertive tone.

“If I lose, I will never use a sword again!”

…

Naturally, Chen Mobai knew nothing about the alliance between his opponents. However, even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.

After all, there wouldn’t be another Wen Renuxue.

The power of the “Guidance Book” lies in information. Although he had already made moves five times, his biggest trump card Sword Sha had not been revealed. Lou Fengcheng was doomed to fail against him.

Although Tao Mingqing ranked fifth on the Foundation List, Chen Mobai thought his actual strength might not be better than Lou Fengcheng’s. Only his foundation might be a bit stronger that’s why Ding Chundzhi ranked him above Lou Fengcheng.

Qi Huanzhi had also practiced a part of the “Six Sovereign Scriptures,” but Chen Mobai was confident he could break it with his Sword Sha.

Xiahou Weihuan couldn’t defy his Sword Sha either.

Only Pei Qingshuang gave Chen Mobai a bone-piercing sensation of Sword Intent during their eye-contact. Given that even Lan Haitian was unwilling to fight with her, it was clear that she is another strong enemy who can force him to go all out.

He just didn’t know if she was as resilient as Wen Renuxue. He hoped she wouldn’t shatter at the first touch.

After considering all the opponents to come, Chen Mobai and Wen Renuxue left the stage and returned to their academy’s platform.

“Wen Renuxue had held back.”

The moment Chen Mobai arrived, Chi Shicheng spoke out.

“Oh? What do you mean?”

“Here, she could utilize the power of the Big Tree, but she didn’t. Maybe she thought the victory would be unmerited if she used it. Or perhaps she wanted a fair battle with you.”

After hearing Chi Shicheng’s words, Chen Mobai realized that seemed to be the case.

At the beginning of this offline skirmish, Wen Renuxue stated that she could suppress anyone with the power of Big Tree.

However, during the battle with Chen Mobai, she only commanded this power when she was about to get dragged off the lakeside platform, and crushed the “Fire Chain Technique”.

“Jialan, ask Sister Wen Renuxue when she’s free. I want to invite her for dinner.”

Chen Mobai thought that this matter could be discussed in person.

But as a man, abruptly inviting a woman and being refused would damage his pride. So, he asked Zhuang Jialan to test the waters first.

“No need to ask now, do it when I leave.”

After saying this, Chen Mobai watched two more duels of his Academy’s contestants on the platform.

Zhongli Tianyu effortlessly won, but Jiang Yuyuan faced an opponent from the Five Thunder Academy who is a fourth-tier foundation establishment. Although she was his fan, she didn’t hold back during the duel and decisively defeated him.

As Zha Jianbai was preparing for his turn, Chen Mobai didn’t stay to watch and as per his routine, withdrew early.

After a while, he received Zhuang Jialan’s message.

Wen Renuxue was having tea at the Qu Shui Pavilion in the evening; Chen Mobai could find her there if needed.

“Where’s Qu Shui Pavilion?”

In the Elixir Refining Room, Chen Mobai asked Qing Nu.

“On the west side of Wood God Island, there are many pavilions extending from the island. These act as our cultivation rooms. Qu Shui Pavilion is one of them. However, it seems to be exclusively reserved by Sister Wen Renuxue. You’re going there today?”

Halfway through, Qing Nu suddenly realized what was happening and turned to look at Chen Mobai with wide eyes.

“Yes, when I dueled with Wen Renuxue today, her Lasting Spring Cultivation was indeed powerful, forcing me to a stalemate. However, I have some doubts about that match, so I want to seek advice from her.”

Chen Mobai didn’t hide anything from Qing Nu and told her the truth.

“You drew with Sister Wen Renuxue!?”

Qing Nu found it hard to believe. As someone who once experienced the intricacies of Lasting Spring Cultivation, she had a clear understanding of the power of this Divinity Transformation.

With an unbeatable stand from the start and fighting next to the Big Tree, even Lan Haitian would likely not be a match for Wen Renuxue.

“It was something like a draw. However, Chi Shicheng suggested she might have held back. That’s what I’m intending to ask tonight.”

Qing Nu took a deep breath, looking up and down at the handsome young man before her once again.

Although she knew he was capable back in Red Sandstone City, she never would have thought that even Wenren Xuewei, who had mastered Lasting Spring Cultivation, couldn’t suppress him.

The title given to him by the Red Robe Daoist was indeed accurate.

Battle Law Victory!

“Make it a quick trip.”

Qing Nu couldn’t think of a reason to dissuade Chen Mobai from seeing Wenren Xuewei, so she could only say these four words.

“What do you want to eat for late night snack? I’ll bring it back for you.”

“Bring more barbecued meat. I think I’ve been too thin lately.”

Chen Mobai was a bit stunned by Qing Nu’s words.

“Oh, alright.”

He was just saying, but she actually took it seriously.

Qu Shui Pavilion.

When Chen Mobai arrived, he found it wasn’t just Wenren Xuewei there.

“Greetings to the two senior sisters.”

In addition to Wenren Xuewei with her waterfall-like green tresses and long green robe, there was also a cool, exceptionally beautiful woman with snow-white skin.

Both were sitting drinking tea, likely of the same rank; hence, calling them senior sisters was surely correct.

“Originally, Cui’er was here too, but she worried that if she met with you in advance, the Sword Intent she’d been nurturing might be triggered by you, so she didn’t come.”

“Cui’er… who is that?”

Chen Mobai asked when he didn’t understand.

“Cui’er is Pei Qingshuang. Her original name was Pei Cui. After she got possession of Qing Shuang Sword, she changed her name to Pei Qingshuang for a perfect fit with the sword.”

Wenren Xuewei smiled and spoke up, then pointed to an empty seat indicating for Chen Mobai to sit down.

“I see. After fighting with Senior Sister Wenren, the only one I look forward to fighting against among the remaining opponents is Senior Sister Pei.”

Once Chen Mobai sat down, he spoke his mind.

“What do you want from me?”

“Did Senior Sister hold back today?”

Upon hearing this, Wenren Xuewei, who was pouring tea, paused her motion and looked at him with a puzzled eye.

“Why do you think so?”

Chen Mobai spoke of Chi Shicheng’s judgment and Wenren Xuewei nodded her head in understanding.

“You could say that. But don’t assume I have perfect control over the Big Tree. The constant state of Lasting Spring Cultivation is an agreement between our Jumang Daoist Academy’s ancestor and the Big Tree. I can passively use its power, but if I want to actively harness the Big Tree’s power, I need to actively consume my own Spiritual Power and Divine Sense.”

“After fighting with you, I’ve already experienced the pain of almost being riddled with holes. Even if I barely suppressed you with the power of the Big Tree, I’d probably have to lay low for a year or so afterward.”

“If you were a mortal enemy, I would be willing, but it isn’t necessary for just a competition. Moreover, Jumang and your Dance Instruments Academy are brother schools with thousands of years of friendship.”

Upon hearing Wenren Xuewei’s explanation, Chen Mobai was enlightened.

At this moment, she handed him a cup of green tea, which Chen Mobai immediately accepted.

“However, considering the friendship between the two academies, you, as a junior brother, did not show any mercy to me. When I was pierced on the stage, I was so angry that I almost couldn’t help but fight back.”

Chen Mobai could only laugh awkwardly in response, took a sip of his tea and changed the topic, while still complimenting her.

“Senior Sister is wise and just, far beyond my reach. By the way, I haven’t heard the name of this senior sister yet?”

“I’m Yan Qiongzhi, I often hear Xuan’er talking about you.”

Before Wenren Xuewei had introduced her, Yan Qiongzhi had already spoken up.

“So it’s you, senior. Back in Red Sandstone City, you were veiled. Today, I have seen your astounding beauty, I didn’t recognize you at first – my apologies.”

At this, even Wenren Xuewei couldn’t help but ask.

“You little fellow, why do you talk in the same tone as those old officials?”
