I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1256: Chapter 690: The Art Of War Manifestation, Water Vein and Fire Vein Submit (2) Chapter 1256: Chapter 690: The Art Of War Manifestation, Water Vein and Fire Vein Submit (2) Upon hearing the mention of Innate Gold Spirit Body, he immediately thought of the Gold Immortal Scripture from the Longevity Sect that lay at the bottom of his storage bag.

Before the Heavenly Sovereign had ascended to his Dao, he was merely a spirit plant.

The most profound and terrifying memory he had was of each autumn.

Autumn represents the executioner, associated with Yin; it also symbolizes armies, where metal is utilized, considered the righteous qi of heaven and earth, always signifying a grim and killing intent at its heart.

The White Emperor Military Formation Scripture was created by the Heavenly Sovereign to overcome his weakness, condensing an aura of heaven and earth’s grim killing intent, to temper himself.

It was said that the Heavenly Sovereign was able to detach from his spirit plant form and take on an incarnation for travel, thanks to the fully developed aura of heaven and earth’s grim killing intent which allowed him to sever a branch from his own body.

Jiang Zongheng respectfully took the White Emperor Military Formation Scripture and departed.

With Chen Mobai’s approval, the third generation of disciples in Xiao Nanshan gained another member.

The year 6527 of the Yuan era!

The internal strife within Jian Country ended, the Second Prince rebelled, stormed into the royal capital, and killed the Crown Prince.

Just as the Second Prince was preparing to ascend the throne, the fully recovered army of Rock Country emerged from Lei Nation. Under the leadership of Duan Shuyu, they captured twenty-seven cities within merely three months and advanced directly into Jian Country’s territory.

The valiant Second Prince, facing domestic and foreign troubles, had no choice but to carry out a large-scale purge, slaughtering all who did not submit to him, and forcibly suppressing all dissenting voices within. He led the remaining forces of Jian Country to the wilderness for a final decisive battle against Duan Shuyu.

One battle would determine the fate of Qiankun—Jian Country suffered a great defeat.

The Second Prince was forcefully taken by his subordinates to flee back to the capital, but that very night, he took his own life with a sword beside the unburied coffin of King Han.

Seven days later, Jian Country opened its gates to surrender!

The year 6528 of the Yuan era!

King Zhao dispatched Duan Shuyu to quell the rebels in Yun Country and Rain Country. After six months, he officially incorporated the territories of these two countries into his domain.

Thenceforth, the seven nations under the Divine Wood Sect were united!

Afterward, King Zhao personally arrived outside Beiyuan Immortal City, requesting the Immortal Master to come down from the mountain!

A month later, Jiang Zongheng took over the position of Grand Tutor.

During his tenure, the Grand Tutor focused on agriculture and sericulture, rewarded military achievements, standardized measurements, established the county system, and governed the nation by law. He quickly stabilized Rock Country’s rule and established an unprecedentedly large empire in the Eastern Wilderness.

The year 6530 of the Yuan era!

The recuperating Rock Country sent troops against Mist Country and Fire Country.

During the chaos of war, the monarchs of these two countries saw an opportunity and occupied much of Rain Country’s plentiful lands. Despite Rock Country’s repeated demands, they had not returned the territories.

Per the Grand Tutor’s orders, Duan Shuyu led the troops on campaign; within a month, he broke through the allied forces of the two countries and even penetrated into the homelands of Mist Country and Fire Country.

In a critical moment, the monarchs of both countries had no choice but to seek help from the Five Elements Sect.

What followed was a premeditated battle among cultivators.

First, the Qi Cultivating disciples of the water and fire veins were defeated by the Cultivator Families from Rain Country summoned by Grand Tutor Jiang. Then came the Foundation Establishment, followed by the arrival of the two mightiest.

Nu Jiang and Sheng Zhaoxi.

Facing the Golden Core Cultivators, the Righteous Cultivators from Rock Country were beaten back step by step.

Grand Tutor Jiang had no choice but to turn to the Shenmu Immortal Sect, seeking assistance from his own Master, who was also the foremost leader of the Righteous Path in the Eastern Wilderness, Immortal Venerate Chen!

At this time, Chen Mobai had just refined the remaining four Immortal Peaches, his cultivation level approaching the perfection of the Jindan Sixth Layer.

You must understand, both Nu Jiang and Sheng Zhaoxi had undergone two hundred years of bitter cultivation to reach this very realm.

It’s worth mentioning that the Rank-4 Immortal Peach Fruit had increased Chen Mobai’s wood, water, and earth spirit roots by 8 points each—a doubling of the effects of the Rank-3 Immortal Peach Fruit.

He didn’t pay much attention to the wood and water spirit roots, but used this opportunity to boost his earth spirit root to 60 points.

Of course, he did not forget to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm to obtain four new grand spells.

The history books recorded that for the sake of the common people, to eradicate warfare, Immortal Venerate Chen, alongside the three Golden Core Cultivators, Meng Luo, descended from Immortal City to the plateau!

He also invited the sword dao grandmaster of Golden Cliff, True Person Mo, to assist in breaking the Water and Fire Array.

True Persons Nu and Sheng fought to cover the retreat of their disciples, were defeated and captured but did not submit.

Immortal Venerate Chen ordered their release and challenged them to a duel on the expanse of Yunmeng Great Marsh. Single-handedly with his sword, he defeated them again.

In the end, the Five Elements Sect’s two Golden Core Cultivators from the water and fire veins graciously accepted defeat, pledged allegiance, recognizing the wood vein as the main vein of the Five Elements.

Without the support of the Five Elements Sect, the six nations—Mist, Fire, Clear, Bright, Spring, Sunny—although they organized a coalition in resistance, crumbled at a single blow when faced with Duan Shuyu’s army.

“After a single battle, six nations fell.

Now, of the original nineteen nations of the Eastern Wilderness, Divine Wood Sect had already occupied the territories of thirteen nations.

The cultivators from Back to Sky Valley and Snow-blowing Palace, upon hearing of the great defeat of the Five Elements Sect, were all feeling a sense of personal danger.

They were deeply afraid that Divine Wood Sect’s next target would be their own sects.

“What a useless guy Zhou Ye is, Ancestor Hun Yuan left behind such a rich legacy, and he’s managed to squander it until only Ming Nation remains…”

In Back to Sky Valley, Yan Shaoyin, amid worries, lamented Ancestor Hun Yuan’s lifetime of glory, yet his choice in a successor had been so poor.

“Master, after Duan Shuyu conquered six nations, aside from the main force besieging Ming Nation, he also dispatched an army opposite Flower Country’s border near our sect for training.”

He Jintong reported news that made Yan Shaoyin’s eyebrows knit tightly together, yet he didn’t believe Divine Wood Sect would dare to make a move on Flower Country.

Because although this place was nominally theirs, Back to Sky Valley, in reality, it was used by Star Heaven Dao Sect for planting Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice.

Even when Ancestor Hun Yuan was alive, they had to give face to Back to Sky Valley because of this.

“Tell this to the people from the Starry Sky Commerce Guild, let them question Divine Wood Sect.”

He Jintong immediately obeyed and went down.

When left alone, Yan Shaoyin sighed, and his entire being seemed to have aged considerably.

After Nu Jiang and Sheng Zhaoxi submitted to Divine Wood Sect, the number of Golden Core Cultivators in Divine Wood Sect even exceeded that of Five Elements Sect at its peak.

And their Back to Sky Valley, even with him, an Alchemy Grandmaster supporting them, to this day, the second Golden Core Cultivator still showed no sign of emerging.

If they wanted to preserve the heritage of Back to Sky Valley, it seemed that only I could take that step!

Thinking of this, Yan Shaoyin’s expression solidified.

This was also the only solution to break the situation that he could think of, and if successful, he could even counter and swallow up Divine Wood Sect to create a superpower that would surpass the three major sects of the East Barbarians.

He wasn’t the only one with such thoughts.

…

Kong Lingling, within the forbidden ground of the cave, endured the excruciating pain of her belly being ripped open, her eyes burning as she watched the monster crawl out from the wound under her ribs.

This infant was greenish-yellow all over, with transparent wings on its back, bulging eyes like rubies, and transverse teeth that stuck out from its lips.

Neither human nor ghost!

Seeing the appearance of the monster, Kong Lingling felt disgusted, but upon feeling the strong Earth Fire spiritual power contained within it, she immediately suppressed her feeling of revulsion and gently called out.

“Child, come here, I am your mother…”

The monster looked up at Kong Lingling and instinctively began to crawl toward her, following the sense of connection through their blood.

…

Northern Abyss City!

Chen Mobai was receiving someone from the Starry Sky Commerce Guild.

“Sect Master Chen, it took our sect a thousand years of hard work and bitter effort to cultivate ten thousand acres of Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice in Flower Country. Several Supreme Elders also often inquire about this matter…”

Lou Xuelong wasn’t very interested in the internal strife of the Five Elements Sect.

He also didn’t believe Divine Wood Sect would dare invade Flower Country, but since Back to Sky Valley had come to complain, as the current person in charge of this side of the Eastern Wilderness, it was a good time to emphasize Star Heaven Dao Sect’s importance on the Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice when visiting to inspect the spiking of Dari Purple Rice in Rainbow Country.

“This is a misunderstanding, aside from reclaiming the Five Elements Sect, our sect will absolutely not initiate an attack on the other paths of Eastern Wilderness.”

Of course, Chen Mobai denied it, confronting Star Heaven Dao Sect at the least had to wait until after he achieved “Nascent Soul Formation”.

The main point now was to make a display of power, to press Yan Shaoyin, and speed things up a little.

“That’s good, Divine Wood Sect and Back to Sky Valley are both good partners of our commerce guild, and I do not wish to see conflict arise between you two.”

With the assurance from Chen Mobai, Lou Xuelong didn’t linger on the topic.

After having tea for a while, Zhuo Ming arrived through the Teleportation Array.

Chen Mobai: “Ming’er, True Person Lou has specially come to check on the situation of the Dari Purple Rice, and as your master has other urgent matters, could you please accompany him to Rainbow Country to take a look?”

Zhuo Ming: “Yes, Master!”

Lou Xuelong didn’t come alone this time but brought a team of Spirit Plant Masters from Star Heaven Dao Sect who would comprehensively evaluate the cultivation situation of the Dari Purple Rice.

After this group of people left, the long-awaited Jiang Zongheng came in.”
