I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 2506 - 1123: Marriage Proposal
Chapter 2506: Chapter 1123: Marriage Proposal
“Heir of the Emperor of Heaven…”
Chen Mobai pondered over the meaning of these four words after listening.
He truly did not expect Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace to have such a background, but thinking of it as an Ancient Sacred Land in the Central State, it made sense.
After all, it was comparable to the Taixu Miaomiao Palace and Qianqiu Pen and Ink Forest.
If that’s the case, then Yuwen Baozhi is not only the child of two Divinity Transformation cultivators but also the heir of the Emperor of Heaven.
A significant background indeed.
“This time coming to the East Continent, besides wanting Mr. Chen to assist in enhancing my son’s artifact refining skills, there’s actually another matter…”
When Ao Yuxia spoke up to this point, she suddenly seemed a bit embarrassed.
Chen Mobai was curious.
“What is it?”
“The Tianhe bloodline flowing in the Yuwen clan requires companionship with a True Dragon to ascend quickly; the simplest method is to find a Dragon Clan wife. Your Yellow Dragon is an Innate True Spirit. Could our two families form this union?”
After hearing this, Chen Mobai refused without hesitation. As a person from an Immortal Gate, he completely opposed arranged marriages.
“I’m afraid I have to decline Yuxia True Monarch’s kind offer. Our Yellow Dragon suffers from homesickness and dislikes being too far from home.”
However, considering the person in front was a Divinity Transformation cultivator, he found an excuse to save some face for Ao Yuxia.
“My son can stay in the Eastern Wilderness. I’ve heard Mr. Chen is collecting some Sixth Rank Spirit Materials. Our Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace, as the Emperor’s Palace, has many treasures left by the Emperor of Heaven. If our families become united by marriage, the betrothal gifts will surely satisfy Mr. Chen.”
Ao Yuxia’s words tempted Chen Mobai greatly, but thinking of exchanging the lifelong happiness of the young Yellow Dragon girl, he still shook his head.
“Then how about letting my son apprentice under Mr. Chen, giving him a chance to interact and understand the Yellow Dragon? The Tianhe bloodline also greatly benefits from the True Dragon bloodline. Of course, the apprenticeship gift will not be less than the betrothal gift.”
Ao Yuxia proposed a retreat for the second-best option, seemingly determined to create opportunities for her son with the Yellow Dragon.
“This subject should not be brought up again.”
Chen Mobai bluntly expressed his firm stance, placing the teacup heavily on the table’s edge to express his unwavering attitude.
Seeing his discourtesy, Ao Yuxia’s face also turned cold, her eyes narrowing.
An inhuman, terrifying aura surged from her body.
Connecting this to what she said earlier, Chen Mobai realized she was not human but a dragon.
Could the Gentiana Pills be meant for her?
Thinking of this, a slight excitement flicked through Chen Mobai’s eyes as the enormous Thousand Swords Dharma Body manifested behind him, the Heaven Cutting Sword Domain silently expanding and encompassing the intense aura emitted by Ao Yuxia.
“This Enlightenment Tea is indeed extraordinary, every sip feels rewarding.”
At this moment, Palace Master Azure Fall suddenly spoke, sweat beading on her back, she smiled and gently kicked Ao Yuxia under the table.
Although Chen Mobai had just reached the Spirit Transformation Stage, his combat power was on par with the peak Divinity Transformation cultivators of the Tianhe Realm.
Even though Ao Yuxia was a True Spirit, on the territory of the Five Elements Sect, it would be better for her to restrain a bit.
Otherwise, if she got slain, as the introducer, it would cause her immense headaches.
“I was presumptuous, please forgive me, Mr. Chen.”
Ao Yuxia seemed to recall Chen Mobai’s battle achievements and upon Azure Fall Palace Master’s reminder, surprisingly chose to concede first.
“The artifact refining will take place in Huozhen Immortal City seven days from now, this is the talisman for entry.”
At this time, Chen Mobai no longer wished to converse with the scheming Ao Yuxia. After placing down two Heavenly Heart Sword Talismans, he excused himself and left.
“Didn’t I tell you, although this person seems amiable, since emerging from the Eastern Wilderness, all forces that opposed him have been annihilated, with lives lost under his sword numbering at least in the millions, a genuine sword dao killing god…”
When only the two of them remained, Palace Master Azure Fall earnestly counseled Ao Yuxia. If not for the significant favor she owed, she truly wouldn’t want to get involved.
“Rest assured, I won’t bring it up again in the future.”
Ao Yuxia assured, easing Palace Master Azure Fall’s concerns slightly, though she decided to stay with her during this period to prevent any uncontrollable situations from arising.
Chen Mobai didn’t leave Northern Abyss City.
In case Ao Yuxia made a move, only he could suppress it.
Fortunately, to cultivate to the Spirit Transformation Stage, even if not human, one’s willpower was quite strong. After Yuwen Baozhi returned, Ao Yuxia brought him and Palace Master Azure Fall directly to Huozhen Immortal City.
…
The day for magic artifact refinement quickly arrived.
Besides Elder Jingchi and Yan Huo, Chen Mobai also called over Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli.
There were also a couple of individuals with connections.
It’s from the Nine Heavens Morality Sect and Dao Morale Sect.
Connected to the Nine Heavens Morality Sect is a Nascent Soul Cultivator named Lian Yuan, an emerging talent who has already become a Fourth Rank Artifact Refiner at a young age. He wants to take this opportunity to earn some prestige and upgrade to a Fifth Rank Artifact Refiner.
From the Dao Morale Sect comes Taoist Child Xuande, also recognized as a prodigy in East Continent. Aside from Alchemy, his achievements in Artifact Crafting are remarkable, so naturally, he wouldn’t miss this chance.
Before refining the artifacts, Chen Mobai had already shared the design blueprints with the seven, ensuring they understood each subsequent step thoroughly.
While Yuwen Baozhi and the others didn’t understand initially, after the briefing, they realized they had mastered the refining methods for the Five Spirit Robe from Rank-1 to Rank-5, seeming as though they could easily complete the task as long as they had the materials.
This sensation of instantly understanding everything was unprecedented.
Could Artifact Refining be done this way?
Just as Yuwen Baozhi was astonished, Chen Mobai took out some prepared superior-grade Third Rank materials, letting them choose freely.
“No matter how much you talk, you can learn better by doing—manually refine a Five Spirit Robe following my detailed instructions. If you complete a Fourth Rank, you’re qualified; you can stay closer when I refine. If it’s below Fourth Rank, just burn firewood; clearly, if you lack talent in Artifact Refining, do not waste time and materials in the future.”
Chen Mobai spoke bluntly, considering these seven were all Nascent Soul cultivators and experienced Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners. If they couldn’t learn from this thoroughly fed knowledge, they’d virtually never craft a Fifth Rank Artifact in their lifetime.
After hearing this, Yuwen Baozhi and the others reacted gravely. Looking at the pile of superior-grade Third Rank materials before them, they were even more nervous than during cultivation.
After all, besides them, many others were present to witness.
For instance, Dustless True Monarch, invited by Chen Mobai. Having entered Spirit Transformation at Shenxi, he was utterly free now, merely guarding Dongling Domain and occasionally exploring the crevices of Dragon Abyss Cave with Da Kong True Monarch.
Chen Mobai, considering Dao Morale Sect’s keen interest in the Dragon Pulse, feared Ao Yuxia causing trouble, so he invited Dustless True Monarch over. Originally Da Kong True Monarch too, but he recently drove his puppet into the Netherworld, not responding.
Dustless True Monarch and Ao Yuxia chatted amiably, surrounded by many Nascent Soul cultivators, including those from the Five Elements Sect and the East Land’s Three Great Sacred Lands, led by Azure Fall Palace Master.
In the East Continent, although attempts at refining Fifth Rank Artifacts were numerous, none succeeded reliably.
Chen Mobai, as a Deity Transformation True Monarch, held high hopes from everyone.
Yet, plenty of Artifact Refiners believed the success rate was at most sixty to seventy percent.
The crux of Fifth Rank Artifacts lies in spirituality.
This is mystical; skill alone is tough to harness and control it.
At this time, Yuwen Baozhi and the others had chosen superior Third Rank materials, arriving at an empty workstation, crafted tailoring tools, and began.
“Hey, what are they doing?”
Ao Yuxia asked with interest.
“Chen Little Friend’s most famous refining technique is refining artifacts beyond their rank using lower-ranked materials. This time, it seems he truly intends to impart his skills.”
Dustless True Monarch chuckled, having purchased artifacts refined by Chen Mobai from Xiao Nanshan Shop for his disciples— as a Deity Transformation True Monarch, he understood how outstanding these skills were.
Originally thought Chen Mobai would, like past Fifth Rank Artifact Refiners in East Continent, merely have attendees burn fires and pass items.
To everyone’s surprise, he taught true knowledge.
The Five Spirit Robe, modified by Chen Mobai from the Pure Yang Immortal Robe blueprint, comprises Five Elements properties among the five robes. For instance, he could use Civet Power and Golden Flame Manticore hides to refine Earth Spirit and Fire Spirit Robes respectively.
This was his intention to implement these robes as standard attire for future Five Elements Sect disciples.
By revealing this to outsiders like Yuwen Baozhi, he aimed to set a robe standard across East Continent.
Time slowly passed, and soon, Truth-Seeking Superior completed his Fire Spirit Robe first.
Having had an artifact refined by Chen Mobai for quite a while, he studied extensively and was an early learner in Huozhen Immortal City. Despite encountering many situations where the mind understood but the hands did not during refining, the blueprints in mind enabled him to address problems effectively.
Upon completing the Fire Spirit Robe, Truth-Seeking Superior froze momentarily.
Recalling Chen Mobai’s words, he realized that preparation is the key, making artifact refining a simple task.
Chen Sect Master’s Path of Artifact Refining is correct!
Truth-Seeking Superior’s refining concepts formed over centuries shattered then, rebuilding based on Chen Mobai’s recent teachings as the core.
After Truth-Seeking Superior was Yan Huo.
However, his expression wasn’t great since his Fire Spirit Robe was merely Third Rank.
Soon, all results emerged.
Aside from Truth-Seeking Superior, Chen Lingming and Yuwen Baozhi also completed Fourth Rank robes.
Chen Lingming had learned by Chen Mobai’s side, whereas Yuwen Baozhi relied purely on talent, grasping Chen Mobai’s teachings within just a few classes.
“Well done.”
Chen Mobai commented approvingly to Yuwen Baozhi after inspection.
“You three come with me, the remaining four can stay here to burn firewood.”
