I Have A Cultivation World-Chapter 431 - 313 Mysterious Yin Sha_2
Chapter 431: Chapter 313 Mysterious Yin Sha_2
However, the Divine Wood Sect also lost three Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Without Chu Zuoshu blocking, Ji Dingjin, at the risk of severely injuring his elemental energy, exhibited the Void Law Body, shattering the Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation that besieged him. The three Penalty Evil Hall Inspectors who were involved in arrays of warfare that had their realms expanded were torn in two on the spot by Ji Dingjin.
Apart from these three, another Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Divine Wood Sect, who was unlucky, was slain by a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from Rock Country who had concealed his cultivation level.
The losses on Mountain Shaker Peak’s side were even more severe.
In addition to the Peak Master who was slain by Chu Zuoshu, five Foundation Establishment cultivators also perished.
The flying boats, bereft of the protection of Foundation Establishment cultivators, along with the over 300 Qi Practitioners from Rock Country inside, naturally also turned into scattered bones and flesh on the vast earth when they were shot down.
This pursuit continued until it reached the Lei Nation’s territory, and only stopped in front of a third-rank Spiritual Land where Ji Dingjin had already set up a defensive array.
Chu Zuoshu then, along with cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect and Lei Nation, blocked the entrance to this third-rank Spiritual Land and the large formation for a whole day, until it was completely dark before calling the retreat and returning to Rolling Thunder Mountain.
“Hahaha…”
“This time we reaped benefits.”
“I killed three late-stage Qi Cultivators.”
“You’re remarkable, I only killed two. Let’s show each other what good stuff we’ve got.”
During the night at Rolling Thunder Mountain, Chen Mobai and Yue Zutao sat outside, drinking and listening to the intermittent cheers of less than 200 cultivators from Lei Nation who were excited by the significant spoils of war, their faces each showing different expressions.
“Even though we won, we lost three senior brothers and one senior sister.”
Chen Mobai sighed, drinking all of the newly brewed spiritual wine made by Zhuo Ming in his cup. This was just matured before the expedition, and Zhuo Ming dug it out for him to bring along.
It just so happened that today’s victory was significant, so Chen Mobai directly opened the whole jar of wine and distributed it to the Foundation Establishment cultivators present.
This spiritual wine was even more intense than the regular Jade Bud Spirit Wine. The moment it hit the throat it felt like a knife was rolling down, but the exhilaration of blood boiling and the drunkenness surging up immediately after was praised by many.
Of course, there were also cultivators who abstained from alcohol.
However, Yue Zutao and Chen Mobai both found a place where they drank happily. After three rounds of wine, they began to speak their true feelings.
“I can understand my junior brother’s feelings. I didn’t understand war at first either. You might not know this, but when I was accepted as a disciple by the Master, it was done under the name of the Five Element Sect. Even though I was merely a young boy at that time, I witnessed and experienced the bloody carnage of intra-sect battles for twenty years.”
When Yue Zutao said this, there was no change in his expression. During the twenty years of the intra-sect war of the Five Element Sect, his best friend and seven out of the nine disciples from the Chu Zuoshu branch who were higher in rank than him also died.
From the initial crying, to the subsequent hatred, then to numbness, and finally to the confusion after reconciliation.
Listening to Yue Zutao recounting his life experiences, Chen Mobai could not help but have another cup of wine.
“One day, I will put an end to the chaos in the Eastern Wilderness.”
For the first time in his life, Chen Mobai expressed his aspirations in this world.
Having lived in the Immortal Gate since childhood, he had never been accustomed to the Tianhe Realm environment, which involved fighting and plundering resources everywhere. If possible, he wanted to use his abilities to end this chaotic era and bring unprecedented peace and tranquility to this disorderly foreign world territory.
Listening to Chen Mobai’s drunk confession, Yue Zutao’s long quiet heart stirred slightly.
He looked at Chen Mobai’s serious face, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he raised his wine cup.
“No wonder your level of understanding in the Sword Dao is so high. Your dao heart, ambition, and aspiration align perfectly with the Way of the Sword Cultivation: brave, diligent, and unstoppable. If you truly achieve your heart’s desire, you may be able to reach the highest realm that Hun Yuan’s Ancestor regretted not achieving in his lifetime.”
Why the True Monarch of the Past was able to ascend, was because he had quelled the Yellow Dragon monster that had been causing disaster in Yunmeng River for a millennium and hence accumulated great merits.
The upper echelons of the Five Element Sect know that Hun Yuan’s Ancestor was actually able to become the first Nascent Soul in the Eastern Wilderness in the last millennium due to his inheritance.
Hun Yuan’s Ancestor’s greatest regret before his Nirvana was that he was unable to repay his birthplace by establishing merits like his ascendant master and he was confined to the Nascent Soul Realm.
The environment of Tianhe Realm makes all the immortal cultivators selfish from the start.
The Five Element Sect upholds the teachings of the Hun Yuan Ancestor and tries its best to change this trend.
For this reason, although there are occasional frictions and competitions among the cultivators of the Divine Wood Sect, in actuality, they are relatively harmonious.
During Yue Zutao’s time in the Five Elements Sect, his nine senior brothers and sisters took great care of him, the youngest among them. That period was the happiest childhood of Yue Zutao’s life.
Unfortunately, the joy of those days now only served to amplify the pain of his memories.
“I drank too much and said things I don’t mean. Brother Yue, please don’t take it to heart,” said Chen Mobai who had finally come back to himself.
The wine Zhuo Ming made seemed to amplify the different emotions in a cultivator’s heart. He drank too much and started to be mumbling about the intensity of the battle and the sacrifices made in the daytime.
However, Chen Mobai, due to his formidable Divine Sense, had already managed to control the influence of the alcohol. He laughed it off, making Yue Zutao believe that he had merely been babbling due to his drinks.
“Haha, please, brother,” said Yue Zutao, not pushing the matter any further. He presumed Chen Mobai had simply had too much to drink.
After he put down the wine cup, Yue Zutao couldn’t have enough and reached out for a small jug beside him, pouring it down his throat.
Chen Mobai stood still, watching in astonishment as Yue Zutao finished the entire jug. Then, flushing deeply, he leaned on a side table and began to sing a nursery rhyme. His eyes were half dreamy, half drunk, and he seemed to be lost in memories. His gaze was vacant.
“Damn it, did Zhuo Ming make a mistake during the brewing? Is this actually poisoned wine?” Chen Mobai thought.
Heaven forbid! This alarmed Chen Mobai into sobriety. He quickly rushed to Chu Zuoshu and the others. Luckily, they had not lost all reasons despite drinking some.
Only a few of them seemed to be indulging unreservedly, probably because they were drowning their sorrows over the loss of their fellow Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
“Come over here. This is a good wine. Let’s have another cup together.”
Chu Zuoshu lifted his wine cup when he saw Chen Mobai, but he and Fu Huakun by his side merely took one sip.
It seemed that as long as one didn’t drink too much, there wouldn’t be any problem.
Chen Mobai then realized that this new wine Zhuo Ming brewed was at most of Rank-1. As for Foundation Establishment cultivators, they could just suppress the alcohol by using their Divine Sense if they didn’t want to get drunk.
Perhaps Yue Zutao had been overwhelmed with emotion.
The next day when Chen Mobai woke up sober, he was thanked by many people.
Because most of these Foundation Establishment Cultivators felt refreshed after a bout of heavy drinking, they seemed to experience a slight growth in their Divine Senses.
According to Yue Zutao’s personal testimony, this wine would awaken prematurely some depressing matters in one’s mind, allowing the cultivators to handle them in advance. This significantly reduced the probability of awakening the Heart Demon during a realm breakthrough.
Chu Zuoshu and the others who knew about this thanked Chen Mobai and ordered the new wine.
“Junior brother, what is this wine called?”
“This was just a casual brew, without a specific name yet. Brother Yue, do you have a name for it?”
“I now realize it is but a dream, and once awakened, what more to seek? Let’s call it ‘Realization Wine’.”
“That’s a good name,” Chen Mobai agreed, feeling the name to be apt so he adopted it.
At this point, Chen Mobai noticed the gourd Yue Zutao was holding. Chen Mobai felt a chill as he looked at it and out of curiosity, he asked, “What is this?”
“I had great luck this morning. I went to the Qi practitioners’ stalls and saw this gourd of Mysterious Yin Sha. It was what I needed for my Mysterious Yin Thunder Child. Therefore, I spent a hundred Spirit Stones to buy it.”
Mysterious Yin Sha!
These substances were already protected within the immortal gates and extraction was prohibited.
Could you really buy it at the stall of a Qi practitioner here!?
Chen Mobai felt he ought to make the most out of his hard-trained Void Spirit Eye and give consumption in the Rolling Thunder Mountain Fang Market a boost.
