I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 685: Chapter 416: Shan Hai Academy (8k)_4

After the Xianmen began to rule the world, they discovered that these were thirteen naturally grown magic swords, containing the mysteries of heaven, earth, mountains, and rivers, forever protecting the limitless sea territories from invading the mainland.

The original School of Mountain and Sea was established by a group of cultivators from the Xianmen who studied the stone swords.

In their mansion, they learned while teaching, which eventually evolved into the most famous Sword Cultivation University in the Xianmen order today.

“Is this the White Stone?”

Chen Mobai, following Pei Qingshuang, got into a car. Seeing him a little bored on the journey, Pei Qingshuang, who was driving, handed him a stone as white as jade, which could fit into the palm.

“Yes, during the open recruitment stage of the Purple Electric Sword finding its master, it required interested sword cultivators from the Xianmen to infuse their Sword Qi into the White Stone and mail it to our School of Mountain and Sea.”

...
“We will then select the White Stones that meet the requirements and send them to the Purple Electric Sword for its choice.”

“However, this is all just for show. From these open selections, we will only symbolically select a few lucky ones to make up the numbers. These individuals will join the four of you, who have already been chosen, for the last round.”

This final round involves each person having a day alone with the Purple Electric Sword. The person with the highest resonance degree with this Rank-4 magical sword will become its master.

“What about the twelve exceptional Sword Cultivation Geniuses who have resonated with the Purple Electric Sword?”

Chen Mobai, while fiddling with the White Stone, asked about the issue he cared about the most.

“Indeed, you too came early because of this.”

Pei Qingshuang chuckled lightly and stepped on the gas. Sitting in the rear row, Chen Mobai immediately felt a strong sense of thrust. They sped into the high-speed flight zone, free from the restrictions of the road surface, and flew towards the School of Mountain and Sea situated on a cliff.

“Oh, who else has arrived?”

Chen Mobai, looking out of the window at the giant stone swords of various heights seemingly held by celestial beings, arbitrarily arranged on the cliff, asked casually.

“You are the last of the four.”

Hearing Pei Qingshuang’s words, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but be dumbfounded. It turns out that these Gold Core “Real People” esteem the Purple Electric Sword so highly.

“You haven’t answered my question yet.”

“All I can say is that the twelve exceptional Sword Cultivation Geniuses were personally reviewed by the Principal Hao Cao two days ago after he inspected all the Sword Qi-infused White Stones.”

Pei Qingshuang made a remark that left Chen Mobai in a daze.

Hao Cao, a master of Sword Dao, personally inspecting?

He must have known that the Purple Electric Sword could only choose among the four of them. So why would he do such a meaningless thing?

It’s not just twelve Sword Cultivation Geniuses. Even if there were a hundred and twenty, they couldn’t reverse the intention of the Nascent Souls.

No, teacher Cheng Xuan said that he was asked to remain silent about this matter.

In this case, it seems that Hao Cao reported his actions to the relevant Nascent Souls in advance.

Getting there, Chen Mobai became even more confused about this situation.

He tried asking Pei Qingshuang again, whose mother is Tao Hua of the Nascent Souls, perhaps knowing the truth, but she merely smiled slightly and refused to say more.

At this time, the two have already arrived at the School of Mountain and Sea.

It is situated on the handle of the Thousand-foot Stone Sword.

It is the tallest and most enormous among the thirteen stone swords of Bai Shi Dong Tian.

After getting off the car, Chen Mobai looked down at the tumultuous sea nearby and then looked back at the thirteen towering stone swords of various heights on the cliff, couldn’t help but marvel at the miracle.

Such magnificent scenery truly needs to be seen in person to appreciate its magnificent grandeur, unique in the whole world.

“Let’s go meet the principal first. The place where you’ll be staying is on another stone sword.”

Pei Qingshuang led Chen Mobai towards the school built on the Thousand-foot Sword Handle.

The Sea-settling Thirteen Swords, the tallest three being the thousand-foot ones, followed by four that are a hundred feet long, and then three that are only ten feet long, while the last three barely make it to one foot.

Chen Mobai, listening to Pei Qingshuang describe the School of Mountain and Sea’s incredible sceneries, couldn’t help but be amazed.

“Originally, there were fourteen stone swords, but one absorbed the essence of all the stone swords, shed its stone shell, and turned into a top sword embryo. It was refined into the Sea-settling Sword by Grandmaster Yun Ya of your Dance Tool Dao Academy.”

Scratching his head in admiration, Chen Mobai recalled Bian Jingchun mentioning that the Sea-settling Sword was refined by the Dance Tool Dao Academy, but he never imagined that the grandmaster himself had personally intervened.

“Can I pay my respects to the Sea-settling Sword?”

“Yes, the Sea-settling Sword is sealed on the top floor of the Sword Tower. You’re going to the Purple Electric Sword anyway, so you can pay your respects then.”

Within the Xianmen, Rank-5 magic artifacts are usually sealed since they require too much spiritual energy to activate, so they are preserved with minimal spiritual energy to prevent their grade from falling.

Thus, high-grade artifacts are a burden for the Xianmen if they don’t have a master.

The Sword Tower of the School of Mountain and Sea stores half of the Xianmen’s flying swords, and the Treasure Trove of the Dance Tool Dao Academy stores tens of thousands of magic artifacts. It’s hard for the academies alone to support these. Most rely on Xianmen funding.

So finding a master for the Purple Electric Sword is also a way to slightly reduce the burden on the Xianmen.

During their conversation, the two have already arrived at a place for sword grinding.

A middle-aged man with a stern face, short hair, and no eyebrows, his beard and mustache twisted, is using the White Stone to grind a rusty longsword.

“I pay my respects to Real Person Hao Cao.”

Chen Mobai had seen pictures of Hao Cao online and knew that he was the principal of the School of Mountain and Sea, so he immediately greeted him respectfully.
