Chapter 693: The Confluence of Two Rivers
Chen Mobai simply wanted to express that it was not easy to collect the materials for a furnace of infant-raising pills and help Yan Shaoyin strengthen his determination, but he didn't expect to get an unexpected reward.
In fact, even if he didn't take out the Golden Liquid Jade Pill, he would have nodded in the end.
But since they have delivered it to his door, how can he not accept it.
With these five Golden Liquid Jade Pills, it can balance the cultivators in the sect who have completed the foundation building.
Thinking of this, the more Chen Mobai looked at Ye Bogui, the more he liked him.
Thinking that when Yan Shaoyin died in the future and returned to Tiangu to surrender, he could let this kid take charge.
After letting E Yun send Ye Bogui away, Chen Mobai began to instruct Yue Zutao in Jumu Ridge to start collecting the medicinal materials for the infant-raising pill.
The auxiliary medicines were easy to say, but there were twelve main medicines, each of which was a rare treasure in heaven and earth.
According to the contract, Shenmu Sect needs to be responsible for six of them.
Because Chen Mobai had instructed in advance, Yue Zutao had basically prepared everything and could pick them as long as he gave the order.
However, there are only three kinds of them in the sect, and the fourth-level Tai Sui meat, the fourth-level Bing Xin Shen Lian, and the fourth-level Tian Lan Yin Guang Cao are still missing.
Among them, Bing Xin Shen Lian is the treasure of Chuixue Palace. Chen Mobai asked Yue Zutao to negotiate in advance. At first, Zhu Jinyu disagreed, but after Shenmu Sect took over the water and fire veins of Wuxing Sect, his attitude suddenly changed.
The contract was signed last year. You can take it when you want, and you don’t need to pay spirit stones. You only need Chen Mobai, the head of Shenmu Sect, to make a promise.
That is, the cultivators of Shenmu Sect cannot attack Chuixue Palace.
Chen Mobai naturally agreed to this, saying that as long as Chuixue Palace adheres to the righteous style and does not do things that harm the world, anyone from Shenmu Sect will never take the initiative to invade Chuixue Palace.
There is no Tian Lan Yin Guang Cao in Donghuang, but the Sun family in Dongwu has it.
Chen Mobai wrote a letter and asked Yu Lian to run to Fengyuwu to give it to Nujiang, hoping that he would come forward to help negotiate with Dongwu.
The remaining is the fourth-level Tai Sui meat, which Chen Mobai can only find a way to get by himself.
However, the six main medicines they collected were relatively easy.
You know, in the immortal sect, the most important thing for the infant-raising pill is the fifth-level Zhu fruit, which is not available here, so Chen Mobai and Yan Shaoyin decided to use the fifth-level Sun Holy Fruit from Yu Ri Hai as a substitute.
This is also the most precious of the twelve main medicines and the most difficult to obtain.
But Chen Mobai was also very straightforward, saying that their Shenmu Sect and Yu Ri Hai had a general relationship and they would definitely not be able to ask for this. If Master Yan wanted to refine the infant-raising pill, he would find a way to get the Sun Holy Fruit.
Yan Shaoyin disagreed at first, but later thought that he must need the infant-raising pill more, so he agreed helplessly.
Now that Yan Shaoyin plans to refine the infant-raising pill, he must have a way to get the Sun Holy Fruit from Yu Ri Hai, and he may have even got it.
I don’t know if it’s Yan Shaoyin’s own connections or the face of Xingtian Chamber of Commerce.
However, Chen Mobai quickly put this matter behind his mind, because he still needed to find a way to upgrade the Tai Sui meat in his hand.
Tai Sui was in Zhuo Ming's hand, but she was now receiving people from the Xingtian Chamber of Commerce and had no time to bring Tai Sui over.
Chen Mobai originally wanted to go to Hongguo in person, but thinking that he had just said he was busy in front of Lou Xuelong, it would be a bit embarrassing to go there now, so he decided to wait until they had observed the Big Sun Purple Rice and left.
Chen Mobai was not worried at all about Zhuo Ming's spiritual planting level.
He remembered that Gu Zhiqin, the Jindan cultivator from Xingtian Dao Sect who came to instruct on the sowing of Big Sun Purple Rice at the beginning, was too arrogant and thought that the small sects in the countryside of Donghuang could not grow such precious spiritual rice without their full-process care and help!
But later, Zhuo Ming easily shocked Gu Zhiqin. After she read the process of sowing Big Sun Purple Rice once, she had already learned it. After two or three times, she could do better than the Xingtian Dao Sect disciples brought by Gu Zhiqin.
When Gu Zhiqin left after two years of instruction, he asked Zhuo Ming if he wanted to switch to another sect.
This was naturally rejected by Zhuo Ming.
Zhuo Ming told Chen Mobai about this matter later. After hearing it, the latter was proud and remembered the name Gu Zhiqin.
This was the first time he met someone who dared to poach his people.
Xingtian Dao Sect couldn't afford to offend him now, so he would settle the score in the future.
It was precisely for this reason that Chen Mobai didn't want to have too many friendships with the people of Xingtian Dao Sect, so as not to make it difficult to take action when they fell out in the future.
Anyway, we have to wait for news from Nujiang, and it will take some time for Yue Zutao to collect the rest of the auxiliary medicines, so we can wait for the matter of upgrading the Tai Sui meat.
At this time, there was another thing worth celebrating.
That is, the two rivers were finally completed and merged.
The super project that was originally planned to be completed in 20 to 30 years was completed nearly half of the time earlier than expected.
It has been exactly 16 years since the two rivers were opened up.
In the first five years, Zhuo Ming and others had no experience and were exploring on their own. Although E Yun hired independent cultivators from Beiyuan City to help, the progress was slow.
In the last five years, the spiritual rice began to be harvested in large quantities, attracting disciples of the Shenmu Sect and major immortal cultivation families to join. The progress began to keep up with the plan and flourished.
Five years later, Chen Mobai personally intervened and forced the foundation-building and elite Qi-training disciples of Shenmu Sect to stay in the East Wilderness Plateau. In addition, Luo Xueer refined the outer Dao Jindan, and Luo Yixuan did not need to hide her strength in Jindan. With the full efforts of the two, the excavation progress of the two rivers was more than three times that of the previous one.
The last year was actually preparing for the confluence of the two rivers.
Today, it is finally completed!
As the head of the sect and the main person in charge of this project, Chen Mobai naturally rushed to the site as soon as possible.
The completion site of the confluence of the two rivers happened to be the border of Xiaoguo, Yanguo, and Hongguo.
This is the most fulfilling project of the sect in the past hundred years, except for war. In addition, it was personally led by the head of the sect, Chen Mobai, so on this day, the guards of the three countries all came with their subordinates.
It happened to be a sunny day with clear skies.
Chen Mobai stood on the bank where the two rivers meet, looking at the turbulent stream below, nodding his head with satisfaction.
On his left and right were the two female cultivators from the sects, Luo Yixuan and Luo Xueer, who had condensed the elixir.
Because Luo Yixuan condensed the ghost elixir, Chen Mobai used the excuse of insufficient manpower to call this disciple to replace Zhuo Ming to open up the Baijiang River in order to avoid her being discovered by Gu Zhiqin, who was sent by the Xingtian Dao Sect to instruct her.
Originally, he was supposed to come here temporarily to avoid for two years, and would go back after Gu Zhiqin left.
However, Chen Mobai later found that with this disciple, he could save a lot of trouble, so he let her take care of the opening of the two rivers.
After the two women, there were three guards, E Yun, Zhou Wangshen, and Yan Yuanhao.
Further outside, there were forty-six foundation builders from the Shenmu Sect who had devoted a lot of energy to this super project.
At first, they just wanted to please the headmaster and earn some spirit stones. After so many years, they have forgotten their original intention. Seeing the rushing streams of the two rivers, a hint of pride appeared in their eyes.
The outermost ones were the contractors of the major families and sects. They also made indelible and great contributions to this super project, so they were also invited to come and watch the ceremony.
Chen Mobai gave an impassioned speech, which attracted warm applause.
Then Zhou Wangshen took out a huge stone and stood on the shore, asking the headmaster to name the river that flows to Hongguo after the intersection.
Chen Mobai thought for a while.
Before, he thought of "Xuanhe", but now he feels that it is not grand enough.
He picked up the sun-chasing pen that Zhou Shengqing gave him, and paced back and forth in front of the stone.
Everyone did not dare to disturb him, and they were all waiting for the headmaster to write.
After a while, Chen Mobai had stopped, stood in front of the boulder, and wrote two words.
[Black Water]!
Everyone was confused.
However, they didn't understand the previous Mohe and Baijiang either. Anyway, whatever the master wanted to call it, it was called that!
From now on, after the two rivers meet, the river flowing to Hongguo will be named "Heishui".
Only Luo Yixuan, who was standing next to him, was a little excited and a little unbelievable when she saw the word Heishui: [Master, didn't you name it for me? ]
On the way back, Luo Yixuan took Chen Mobai's Chixia Yunyanluo and returned together.
"Master, why is it called Heishui?"
She asked with a feeling of expectation and fear of disappointment.
Chen Mobai looked at the face of this disciple, thought carefully, and understood her mood. He couldn't help but smile slightly, and continued to speak according to her expectations.
"Ming'er came to the East Desert Plateau to open up the two rivers. I was relieved because of your escort. At the beginning, many dangerous and critical river channels in Baijiang were opened up by you."
"Later, Ming'er went to Hongguo to control sand and plant spiritual rice. I was in seclusion all year round and couldn't take care of her. It was all thanks to your hard work and leading the sect disciples and major contractors that we were able to successfully complete this project."
"It can be said that your contribution to the confluence of the two rivers is greater than that of Ming'er and nephew Luo."
"So I hope that future generations can remember you, the great hero behind the scenes, in the name of Black Water!"
As soon as Chen Mobai finished speaking, Luo Yixuan was excited. She couldn't help but raise her white and greasy face. She wanted to be proud but thought of being reserved, which made her cheeks flushed. The hard work of digging the river for many years in her heart was swept away at this time, and she couldn't help but volunteered!
"Master, leave the matter of opening up Black Water to me. I guarantee that there will be no shortage of water sources when Senior Sister Zhuo controls sand."
Hearing this, Chen Mobai was also very happy.
"Okay, okay, Xuan'er, you are indeed my most caring disciple. I will only feel at ease if you take care of this important matter!"
