I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2491: Chapter 1113: No Way Back to the Past (Part 2)

In the past, Chen Mobai felt that having Zhongli Tianyu regard him as a target was quite nice. After all, he thought that at most, he could rely on the resources of the Tianhe Realm to achieve Divinity Transformation; Cultivating Void was just a thought, and he didn’t think it could be achieved.

But after entering the Purple Cloud Palace and apprenticing to a master, Chen Mobai’s perspective and knowledge were both sublimated.

His teacher, the Purple Sky Daoist Venerable, is a presence that has ascended to the other shore, proving the eternity of the Dao.

His senior brothers and sisters are all the most top-tier Great Abilities in the Great Thousand Universe.

His classmates around him were at least Cultivating Void, and outstanding ones like the one sitting in front of him, Forget-Machine, were even True Immortals of Unity.

Chen Mobai felt that at least he could guarantee his advancement to Cultivating Void and strive for Harmonization.

If Zhongli Tianyu still takes Chen Mobai as his goal, it’s estimated that the hard-earned Dao Heart will shatter more and more over time.

Because the further one progresses in cultivation, the greater the gap becomes; even a minor realm can be an insurmountable chasm.

Zhongli Tianyu: ”I have something to do, I’ll hang up first!”

Chen Mobai had just finished speaking when he heard a busy signal.

Unexpectedly hung up by this kid, how unreasonable.

Chen Mobai was very angry; he was kindly advising but didn’t expect Zhongli Tianyu’s self-esteem to be so fragile, unable to hear the truth.

It seems after forming his Nascent Soul, he feels he’s capable again.

Just as Chen Mobai was about to teleport over to teach him a lesson in person, he suddenly remembered that he was already someone else’s disciple, and he sat back down dejectedly.

Not long after, Deng Daoyun successfully completed Nascent Soul Formation. Although the spectacle could not compare to when Chen Mobai achieved Divinity Transformation, it was still exceptionally grand.

Upon receiving the news, Cheng Xuan hurried over immediately.

”Good, good, good, little Deng achieving Nascent Soul Formation puts my mind at ease!”

Cheng Xuan was very pleased. Deng Daoyun, as the Director of the Refining Implement Department, was almost personally mentored by him, cultivating ”The Union of Differences,” making him an unmistakable direct lineage true disciple of the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Deng Daoyun achieving Nascent Soul Formation meant that their lineage now had successors.

”After Teacher Deng has honed his skills for a few years, I can probably retire.”

Chen Mobai’s feelings matched those of Cheng Xuan. His previous decision to become the principal of the Dance Tool Dao Academy was mainly due to a lack of personnel.

The lines on his side of the Immortal Gate, as well as the lines in the Three Great Halls, had been severed long ago. When they are also severed on the Daoist Academy side, only his own lines will remain, which will greatly assist him in Cultivating Void.

”What do you plan to do after you retire, Junior Brother? Seclude yourself on Wangxian Peak or leave the Earth Element Star?”

Cheng Xuan asked curiously. Chen Mobai’s cultivation level was already the top of the Immortal Gate. But as for his usual displays, apart from cultivation, there didn’t seem to be any other hobbies.

”I haven’t thought about it carefully, maybe I will leave. However, all my thoughts currently are on the next war expedition; once that is over, then I can talk about something else.”

With the advancement in his cultivation level, the Immortal Gate side no longer had much that could interest Chen Mobai.

He would definitely focus more on the Tianhe Realm in the future.

Once the Purple Cloud Palace descends, he would gradually fade out on the Immortal Gate side. Leaving was an option, and it was also possible, like Bai Guang, that he would enter a deathly, closed seclusion for hundreds of years without seeing anyone.

”Indeed, the Immortal Gate has a great catastrophe to experience still.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xuan nodded in agreement.

Not long after, Deng Daoyun also emerged from seclusion. Under usual circumstances, every newly advanced Nascent Soul in the Immortal Gate must pay respects to the Divinity Transformation, and he was very convenient with Chen Mobai and Cheng Xuan already waiting for him in the office.

Then came the celebration.

Deng Daoyun thought that achieving Nascent Soul Formation was just a small accomplishment, but to Chen Mobai and Cheng Xuan, it was an occasion that could delight the entire Weapon Dancing Sect.

Soon, the prominent figures of the Dance Tool Dao Academy in the Immortal Gate arrived at Crimson Mountain.

”So envious!”

Seeing Deng Daoyun being surrounded by so much attention, Ming Yuhua swore in his heart that one day he would also succeed in Nascent Soul Formation.

”Don’t worry, next, our lineage will primarily promote you and Senior Sister Bian.”

At their table were people from the Metaphysical Class back then, arranged by Zhuang Jialan at Chen Mobai’s request. He sat at the head, with Ming Yuhua and Yunyang Bing on his sides. Hearing his good brother’s words brought a smile of promise.

”Old Chen, I must have accumulated eight lifetimes of good fortune to have a brother like you.”

Ming Yuhua heard this and was immensely delighted. Although when he was assigned to the Military Department, he roughly knew they intended to focus on cultivating him, but now with Chen Mobai, the Divinity Transformation saying it himself, it was a definitive fact.

Hearing the dialogue between the two, Wang Xingyu and others at the table were all envious. However, Ming Yuhua’s Golden Core Eighth Layer cultivation was indeed second only to Chen Mobai, followed by Yunyang Bing’s Golden Core Sixth Layer.

People suspected that Chen Mobai had given these two good brothers more cultivation resources, but they only thought this in their hearts.

Gong Ranran kicked her husband Wang Xingyu under the table, gesturing towards the wine glass with her eyes.

Back at the academy, they had a good relationship with Chen Mobai, but after graduation and starting a family, focusing on family life, plus Wang Xingyu’s introverted nature and rare initiation of contact with Chen Mobai, their relations gradually faded.

A not so long ago, their elder Wang Xin Fu failed to form his Nascent Soul, casting a shadow on their family. Now was a rare opportunity to converse with Chen Mobai, and Gong Ranran felt Wang Xingyu shouldn’t miss this chance.

”True Monarch, I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you on your Divinity Transformation...”

Wang Xingyu, understanding his wife’s intentions, immediately raised his wine glass, stood up, and toasted Chen Mobai.

”Oh, given our relationship, calling me True Monarch sounds a bit distant!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai immediately corrected him. The reason he organized this table today was to relive those pure and beautiful times from school when everyone was together.

In Ming Yuhua, he found a hint of this feeling, but as soon as Wang Xingyu spoke, it pulled Chen Mobai back to the cold, harsh reality.

He was no longer the ordinary student of the Dance Tool Dao Academy; he was the top Divinity Transformation True Monarch of the Immortal Gate.

”Sorry, Old Chen...I’ll drink one first!”

Wang Xingyu stuttered as he called out, then drained his glass in one go.

”My husband isn’t great at talking; you always knew that.”

Gong Ranran quickly stood up to smooth things over, raising her own glass as well.

”Let’s all share a drink; it has been a long time since we last saw each other, and I miss it dearly.”

Chen Mobai looked at the respectful gazes directed at him and knew he could never go back. With an internal sigh, he stood to clink glasses with everyone.

”Old Chen, I knew from the start you were extraordinary, with the qualification of deification, so I named the Metaphysical Class.”

After receiving Chen Mobai’s promise, Ming Yuhua didn’t forget to propose a toast. His words made everyone at the table nod in agreement, and some even praised Ming Yuhua’s foresight.

”Is that so?”

Chen Mobai, however, was a bit unclear, only remembering that after leaving from Che Yucheng, due to their mutual focus on cultivating the Pure Yang Scroll, he and Ming Yuhua, Yunyang Bing drank and he was muddle-headedly pulled in.

”It was indeed like that, just ask them if you don’t believe me.”

Upon Ming Yuhua’s words, the group nodded again.

”In retrospect, the time back at the Daoist Academy was the most carefree and joyous; one just had to study and cultivate well, without worrying about much, with Seniors Qian Xing and Bai Guang handling any crises. But now, I can only rely on myself...”

Chen Mobai’s reflection left no one daring to continue the conversation.

They were mostly at Core Formation at best, some even stuck at Foundation Establishment.

”Old Chen, with great ability comes great responsibility; you are now the hope of three hundred million beings in the Immortal Gate. If you ever have worries, feel free to talk to us.”

Yunyang Bing spoke up. Among the Metaphysical Class classmates present, he had the most communication with Chen Mobai. Now he was the deputy director of the Sky Curtain Ground Network Management Bureau, barely understanding Chen Mobai’s sentiments.

”Haha, I’m just saying, come, let’s continue drinking...”

While smiling and raising his glass, Chen Mobai knew in his heart that there was truly no returning to the past.
