Chapter 635: Three Generations of Facades
If I had known earlier, I would have tested her spiritual roots first.
Now that the words have been spoken out, he, the leader of the largest sect in the Eastern Wasteland, cannot go back on his word and regret it on the spot.
Forget it, your own face is more important, but you can't embarrass yourself in front of the two apprentices.
Chen Mobai thought for a while, but still restrained his desire to accept a disciple. His majestic and eloquent persona could not be ruined by this little girl.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Luo Yixuan, who was on the side, was paying attention to Chen Mobai. Seeing him looking at his palms and thinking for so long, with tangled eyes, she couldn't help but ask.
"nothing……"
Chen Mobai shook his head and was about to put the spiritual instrument back into his storage bag when he suddenly thought of something and looked straight at Luo Yixuan.
"Master..."
Luo Yixuan looked a little strange at him, thinking that there was something wrong with the ghost elixir she had condensed, and her eyes began to show a trace of panic.
"Xuan'er, you are not young anymore. Now you have formed elixirs and your practice has reached a peak. Have you ever thought about recruiting some disciples to carry forward your master's Xiaonanshan lineage?"
Chen Mobai couldn't slap himself in the face, but it would be a pity to let such an outstanding fire root genius go to his eyes in vain.
Seeing Luo Yixuan, he immediately thought of a way.
Their Xiaonanshan still lacks a third-generation disciple who can suppress the facade. Why not let her, who has just formed an elixir, accept Han Zhiling as a disciple? Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
Liu Wenbai on the side couldn't help being slightly surprised after hearing this.
But the one who was even more shocked was Han Zhiling.
She never expected that there would be a turn of events. Although she could not become a disciple of Chen Mobai and become the second generation disciple of Xiao Nanshan, she would be extremely surprised if she could become a disciple of Luo Yixuan, who also formed the same elixir.
After Luo Yixuan heard this, he hesitated.
She really didn't expect that Chen Mobai would let her accept a disciple.
Although she is very well-behaved, after accepting a disciple, according to Xiao Nanshan's rules, she will be responsible for the rest of her life.
Luo Yixuan thought that she was not as responsible as Chen Mobai. If Han Zhiling started teaching and didn't teach carefully in the future, Chen Mobai would find out and punish him.
So as soon as she thought about it, she immediately thought of an excuse and declined politely.
"Master, I am actually still young...and neither Senior Brother nor Senior Sister Zhuo have accepted a disciple yet. If I were to be the first, wouldn't it be arrogance?"
When Chen Mobai heard this, he didn't force it. After all, under his example, everyone in the Xiaonanshan line attached great importance to the master-disciple relationship.
Moreover, Luo Yixuan's temperament is indeed not suitable for teaching others. If Han Zhiling falls into her hands, if she doesn't pay attention at all times, she may really go astray.
"Wen Bo, what do you think?"
Since Luo Yixuan doesn't want a disciple yet, Chen Mobai can only sell it to the senior disciples present.
"I will naturally obey Master's words, but I spend 90% of the year traveling around the Eastern Wasteland. If Junior Nephew Han joins my sect, I'm afraid it will delay her cultivation."
Liu Wenbai also told the truth. As the leader of the second-generation disciples, he was the most at ease with Chen Mobai, but if Han Zhiling became his disciple, it might really delay him even more.
She can't be allowed to do business with Liu Wenbai. This is not the foundation yet. It is the critical time for Qi training to lay the foundation.
Han Zhiling's mood on the side was ups and downs, changing back and forth between surprise and disappointment, hope again, and disappointment again.
The tough character he had developed since childhood was a bit unbearable. The corners of his mouth were pursed and his eyes were slightly red.
Sure enough, the leader's standards for recruiting disciples were too high, and he was not favored by Master Liu and Master Luo.
Just when she was feeling depressed and doubting herself, Liu Wenbai spoke again.
"How about letting her follow Junior Sister Zhuo to farm?"
After hearing this, Chen Mobai could only do this.
With Zhuo Ming's personality, Han Zhiling is the most suitable for her.
Not only can he stay in the sect to practice, but he can also give Xiaonanshan an extra manpower to take care of the spiritual field, which can alleviate some of Zhuo Ming's increasingly heavy burden.
"Girl Han, you are the first graduate of the Changsheng Academy that I appointed, and we met in this Feilong Pond. It shows that you are closely related to me."
"But I don't accept Qi training disciples. If you are willing, after completing this guarding mission by the end of the year, you can come to Xiaonan Mountain and stay with Ming'er for a while."
"After you two get along, if Ming'er doesn't object, how about I personally come over to host your apprenticeship ceremony?"
Chen Mobai's tone made Han Zhiling feel respected as never before. The head of the dignified Shenmu Sect actually asked her what she, a small Qi training disciple, thought about.
She immediately nodded repeatedly, indicating that it was entirely up to the master's arrangement!
"Hahaha, okay, Wen Bai, you stay here and educate Han girl about the rules of Xiaonanshan. By the way, you can re-select the guardians of the two green Chan spirit trees planted on the tributaries of the Dragon Vein. In addition, the little guy in Longjiaogou has finished smoking. After the Dragon Vein Qi, you can also think of a reason to bring him back, and you can decide how to deal with it yourself. "
Han Zhiling was present, and Chen Mobai didn't say anything about the Liberation Meeting, but Liu Wenbai immediately understood what he meant and nodded gently.
"Xuan'er, return to the clan!"
As Chen Mobai spoke, colorful rays of light rose up from under his feet, turning into a colorful cloud in the blink of an eye.
Luo Yixuan floated up and landed on the red clouds like a fairy.
"Congratulations to the head master, and congratulations to Master Luo!"
Han Zhiling became smart at this time and immediately saluted master and apprentice Chen Mobai as they flew into the sky. She was afraid that they wouldn't notice, so she shouted extra loudly!
"Master, Senior Sister Zhuo will definitely be surprised to know that you have arranged a disciple for her."
Flying into the sky of Shenmu Sect, Luo Yixuan said with a smile.
"Xuan'er, my teacher, I hope you can remember today well."
Chen Mobai's words shocked Luo Yixuan.
"Is it because this is the first time our master and disciple meet after I formed the elixir?"
"Hahaha, that can be considered a reason..."
Chen Mobai laughed and did not say anything clearly, leaving Luo Yixuan to guess on her own.
I hope that in the future, she will not regret too much for giving up Han Zhiling to Zhuo Ming.
The speed of the two pill-forming monks was naturally extremely fast.
Soon they arrived at the nearby Qinghongfang City, and with the help of the teleportation array here, they returned to Jumuling.
Chen Mobai took Luo Yixuan to Zhou Shengqing's Changshengmu Dojo. After a while, Fu Zongjue came over after getting the news about him.
When they heard that Luo Yixuan had really condensed the ghost elixir, Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue were both surprised and emotional.
They thought that when they formed the elixir, they basically regarded death as if they were dead, and even wrote a suicide note.
Unexpectedly, among the younger generations, Chen Mobai formed elixirs at the age of forty-four, and Luo Yixuan formed elixirs at the age of fifty.
When they saw the master and apprentice standing together with jade-like skin and young faces, they felt sincerely that they were getting old.
At this time, another earth-yellow spiritual light flew over.
It was Zhuo Ming.
Luo Yixuan immediately walked over and held hands with her, showing her deep sisterhood.
When Zhuo Ming heard that she had successfully formed the elixir, he was also happy from the bottom of his heart, more excited than anyone present.
"Then prepare for the upgrade of the soul-nurturing wood."
Chen Mobai saw that everyone was here, waved to the two disciples, and walked together to where Zhou Shengqing's shadow was.
"If this spiritual tree is upgraded, it will definitely cause a catastrophe. However, the calamity of the spiritual tree is far inferior to that of human monks. As long as we are properly prepared, there should be no problem."
It was Grandma Ming who said this. She was the one who knew the most about the soul-raising tree.
"But the unprovoked catastrophe has descended on Jumu Ridge. I am afraid that it will attract the attention of people with ulterior motives and investigate. If they discover any clues about the soul-nurturing tree, it may attract the attention of major sects outside the Eastern Wasteland."
Fu Zongjue expressed his worries.
The fifth-level soul-nurturing wood represents a dharma body Nascent Soul, which will make even the Eastern Earth sect excited.
"Master, if you don't announce the news about my pill formation, then outsiders will only think that I am overcoming the tribulation."
Luo Yixuan thought of a way and took the initiative to speak.
But Chen Mobai and the other three shook their heads at the same time.
Zhou Shengqing: "If you form an elixir, more people will definitely come to test you, and the enemy will treat you as an elixir-forming monk. Once you expose your underworld spiritual power in public, you will easily be mistaken for It’s a ghost cultivator who takes over his body and is reborn. Where will Junior Brother Chen’s face be at that time?”
As a disciple of the largest sect in the Eastern Wasteland, he was taken over by a ghost cultivator. Neither Chen Mobai nor the Shenmu Sect could afford to lose face like this.
Luo Yixuan heard it and felt it made sense.
Although she is considered to have formed a pill, she may only be able to fight with Meng Hong, so it is better to hide it.
"How about taking this soul-nourishing tree to the secret realm of the sacred tree to upgrade it?"
Chen Mobai put forward an idea, and everyone thought it was feasible. They immediately opened the secret realm and went on a field trip together.
But after reading it, Granny Ming shook her head.
"Holy Son, most of the spiritual veins here have been suppressed by the three longevity trees. If the soul-raising trees want to advance, they will not have enough spiritual energy!"
Although there are also fourth-level high-grade spiritual veins in the sacred tree secret realm, the avenue tree alone occupies 50%, the magic weapon tree and the talent tree each account for 20%, and the last 10% is scattered, multiplying the lush trees in this secret realm .
It is precisely because of this that Chen Mobai searched here for a long time and finally found six third-level Golden Yang Spirit Trees. In fact, most of the spiritual energy in the secret realm is located here with the three longevity trees.
To solve the problem of spiritual energy, you can use a large number of spiritual stones.
But since none of them have the experience to upgrade spiritual plants to the fifth level, they don't know how much spiritual energy is needed.
What if there are not enough spirit stones and the upgrade fails?
This is the only soul-nurturing tree that reaches the peak of the fourth level. It is better to place it in the giant wood ridge to upgrade. At that time, Fu Zongjue can personally control the Ten Thousand Tree Formation to continuously supply the spiritual veins and spiritual energy.
After confirming this, Granny Ming took various Yin-type materials prepared by Fu Zongjue and prepared to create a small underworld environment in Zhou Shengqing's Changshengmu Dojo.
"Master, I have an idea!"
Just when they were about to take action, Zhuo Ming, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Oh, Ming'er, it doesn't matter!"
Chen Mobai regarded this apprentice as a successor and looked at her with encouraging eyes.
"Actually, the fairy peach tree on the top of Xiaonan Mountain, if the seedlings are pulled out to encourage growth, it is very likely to be upgraded to a fourth-level spiritual plant."
"I was just wondering if we could bring the soul-nurturing tree to Xiaonan Mountain. Then even if the upgrade causes a catastrophe, we can still tell the outside world that it was caused by the breakthrough of this fairy peach tree."
"And my Earth Mother Power can play a greater role in Xiaonan Mountain. It can also use the power of Tai Sui to increase the success rate of the Soul-Nourishing Tree's upgrade."
As soon as Zhuo Ming finished speaking, Chen Mobai and others all had their eyes lit up.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
"But in this case, the whole show must be done. I'm afraid that Junior Brother Chen will also have to enlighten the fairy peach tree to upgrade it. If the two spiritual plants trigger the heavenly tribulation at the same time, will it trigger a chain reaction, causing the power to be superimposed and both to fail?"
Zhou Shengqing thought of something deeper and raised his own concerns.
"This can be avoided in a way, such as enlightening the Soul-Nourishing Tree to upgrade first, and then enlighten the fairy peach tree after the Soul-Nourishing Tree succeeds. Even if the two heavenly tribulations are separated by a period of time, others will only think that the fairy peach tree has a deep foundation, and the duration of the heavenly tribulation it triggered is so long!"
Fu Zongjue said, and Chen Mobai also thought it was feasible. He nodded and added a sentence.
"Besides, the Soul-Nourishing Wood is of a high grade, so the power of the Heavenly Tribulation must be stronger than that of the Fairy Peach Tree. As the Heavenly Tribulation becomes weaker and weaker, outsiders will only think that it is the aftermath, which can just prove this statement."
At this point, they basically reached a consensus, and followed Zhuo Ming's idea to change the place where the Soul-Nourishing Wood is upgraded to Xiaonan Mountain.
"In fact, if the Heavenly Tribulation of these two spiritual plants is triggered at the same time, it may be a good thing!"
At this time, Granny Ming suddenly spoke through Luo Yixuan's body.
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Chen Mobai asked curiously.
"The peach tree spirit plant and the soul-nourishing wood restrain each other, so their heavenly tribulations naturally restrain each other."
"If the heavenly tribulation of the fairy peach tree is triggered in the same place when the soul-nourishing wood's heavenly tribulation descends, then the latter's heavenly tribulation can be used to disperse part of the former's heavenly tribulation."
"I have also seen this soul-nourishing wood. It is very well nurtured by Miss Zhuo. As long as the worries of the heavenly tribulation are reduced, it is almost certain to rise to a higher level."
After listening to Granny Ming's words, Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue looked at each other with horror in their eyes.
They really didn't expect that they could use the heavenly tribulation in this way.
Faced with something beyond their cognitive scope, the two of them were very hesitant and could not make up their minds.
After all, if the heavenly tribulations of the two spirit plants were not restrained by each other, but superimposed on each other, then the fairy peach tree and the soul-nourishing wood might all turn into ashes.
On the contrary, Chen Mobai's eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Granny Ming's plan was feasible.
"I think it's feasible. What do you two brothers think?"
As soon as Chen Mobai spoke, Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue no longer hesitated and nodded.
"Then do it!"
