Taking the Blame

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai's eyes widened in disbelief.

Not only him, but even the usually gentle and quiet Yan Qiongzhi couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her cherry lips in surprise after hearing the truth revealed by Pei Azurefrost, completely losing her composure.

This event clearly had a huge impact on them.

"What does it mean to Reincarnation Body of the Old Ancestor Bai Guang? Could it be that the Ancestor has already passed away?"

After a long while, Chen Mobai swallowed and asked a question.

"I don't know. I asked my mother about this, but she didn't tell me either. However, I'm certain that this genius who was able to infuse Fourteen Sword Qis into the White Stone is the reincarnation of the Old Ancestor Bai Guang."

As for why I'm so sure, it's because Lian Yuan cultivators in the Immortal Sect can't do this.

"Then why are we still arguing? Why don't we just give the Purple Lightning Sword to Old Ancestor Bai Guang?"

Chen Mobai said with a wry smile, "Who in the entire Immortal Sect dares to compete with the Spirit Transmutation Ancestor?"

"Don't worry, Teacher Hao Cao has already eliminated Old Ancestor Bai Guang. However, just in case, he still created twelve peerless sword geniuses to create a false impression, just to cover up Old Ancestor Bai Guang's Reincarnation Body."

Pei Azurefrost revealed another secret.

After hearing this, Chen Mobai and Yan Qiongzhi looked at each other and swallowed hard.

"This... isn't Hao Cao afraid of being blamed by Old Ancestor Bai Guang for doing this?"

"The Reincarnation Body of the ancestor is unaware that he is the Old Ancestor Bai Guang. It seems that the ancestor was just playing around in the mortal world, or it was a way of cultivating. He is currently just an ordinary Qi Cultivation Cultivator, still struggling to reach the Foundation Establishment. Moreover, with the pressure from the Law Enforcement Hall Master and several other venerable ones, Teacher Hao Cao can only take the blame."

Hearing Pei Azurefrost's words, Chen Mobai couldn't help but feel sorry for Hao Cao. No wonder he seemed to be in a bad mood when he went to see him yesterday, and he kept Sharpening Sword.

The elimination of the Reincarnation Body of the Nascent Spirit Transmutation Ancestor for no reason, although it was ordered by several Nascent Soul Elders, will surely be remembered by the Old Ancestor Bai Guang if he finds out in the future because of this conspiracy.

Even if he Nascent Formation, his future is likely bleak.

But this is your boss making you take the blame...

"In other words, in the end, the Purple Lightning Sword still depends on the four of you."

After Pei Azurefrost finished speaking, Chen Mobai felt a little relieved.

"Cui'er, you are a teacher at the Mountain Sea Academy. You should have already guessed how our Natural Academy wants to retrieve the Purple Lightning Sword."

With a slight smile, Yan Qiongzhi brought up the question Chen Mobai had asked earlier, and Pei Azurefrost nodded in agreement.

"If Ruan Zixiu becomes the Sword Master of the Purple Lightning Sword, he will definitely not give up the Ten Thousand Rivers Sword Canon he has cultivated for hundreds of years. Therefore, the Purple Lightning Sword will need to adapt to him. Even if Human Sword Unity in the end, the spirituality of the Purple Lightning Sword will be greatly diminished. Only after Ruan Zixiu his Nascent Formation can the Purple Lightning Sword possibly recover."

"Huo Xiqing's Purple Thunder Great Law is perfectly compatible with the Purple Lightning Sword, but he is not Sword Cultivator. He wants to use the Spirit Tool Dual Cultivation Technique to absorb the essence of the Purple Lightning Sword for his own use. Although this will bind the cultivator to the sword, it is unknown whether the Purple Lightning Sword is willing to take this gamble."

"Sister Yan, if you were to tell the Purple Lightning Sword that choosing you as its Sword Master would not require sacrificing its spirituality or offering its essence, but simply relocating its worship, then in a situation where a choice of sword wielder must be made, the Purple Lightning Sword might disregard the resonance and choose your Natural Academy."

Pei Azurefrost shared her guess: although Fourth Tier Sword Artifact are rare in the Immortal Sect, since there has been no World Opening War for many years, the cultivators here mainly focus on improving their own cultivation level and extending their lifespan.

Even if Core Formation Cultivator desperately needs the Purple Lightning Sword, they would not damage their foundation for the sake of this weapon.

Ruan Zixiu will not change his Purple Thunder Great Law to match the Purple Lightning Sword. Huo Xiqing wants the Purple Lightning Sword because he can use the Spirit Tool Dual Cultivation Technique to enhance his own power Comprehend Together the power of this Fourth Tier Sword Artifact.

If the two Core Formation True Person were to become the Sword Master, the Purple Lightning Sword would have to make many sacrifices at the beginning.

The only hope after making this sacrifice is that the Sword Master can Nascent Soul Formation Success.

If it fails, the grade of the Purple Lightning Sword will drop, and it may even be no longer at the Fourth Grade.

In comparison, if Yan Qiongzhi is chosen, then although she is the Sword Master, she will not require the sword and the Purple Lightning Sword to Human Sword Unity, and this Fourth Tier Sword Artifact will not have the risk of falling.

It's like the place for Nurturing Sword has simply changed from the Mountain Sea Academy to the Natural Academy.

After listening to the two women's words, Chen Mobai suddenly understood.

The Purple Lightning Sword Selection was essentially a job interview.

This means that three companies offered to raise the price of the Purple Lightning Sword:

Ruan Zixiu's condition is that you, Purple Lightning Sword, follow me. Although the current conditions are a bit tough, and the skills you originally had are not very useful, and you still need to learn the Ten Thousand Rivers Sword Canon to adapt to me, the future is bright. Once I Nascent Formation, you will be an even more versatile Fourth Tier Sword Artifact.

Huo Xiqing's conditions were that you would be a perfect match for the Purple Lightning Sword and could quickly master it by following him. The only problem was that the company was currently in a slump and you would have to work for free and contribute your own savings to the company. However, the future prospects were bright. Once I Nascent Formation, you would be able to unleash your full power.

Yan Qiongzhi's offer was the best for Purple Lightning Sword; as long as he came, he'd be provided with food and lodging, and wouldn't have to work. The downside was that there was no future in his career; his life would just be like that.

"So, this is about whether Purple Lightning Sword wants a future or to give up?"

Chen Mobai gave a conclusion with a look of sudden realization.

The two women initially found it a bit strange, but they quickly realized that the summary was excellent and exactly what it meant.

What conditions have you prepared?

Pei Azurefrost asked Chen Mobai a question, and the latter was still a little confused. After thinking about his own advantages, he realized that this matter might be relatively simple.

Just offer higher compensation.

"My cultivation level is similar to that of Master Yan, but I am merely a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, so I doubt the Purple Lightning Sword would even notice me."

On the surface, Chen Mobai said with self-deprecation that although he was considered the second Lan Haitan, he would only ever be a Foundation Establishment until he passed the Core Formation.

Compared to the other three Core Formation True Person, at least they all have the hope of Nascent Formation Soul stage.

Even with his exceptional talent, he would need to wait at least another sixty years for the Purple Lightning Sword to Core Formation.

Once a sword has chosen its master, the Immortal Sect will no longer provide even the minimum required Spirit Stone and spiritual energy. The Purple Lightning Sword might even fall out of rank if it follows a Foundation Establishment Cultivator for sixty years.

Moreover, any Magic Artifact has a limited lifespan after it is cast.

Because within the Immortal Sect, there are only a handful of materials of the Eternity level; the rest, no matter how precious, will decay after the passage of time.

For this reason, every so often, the Myriad Treasures Cave selects magical Magic Artifact that are about to expire and uses them to refine into Talisman Treasure and Talisman Artifact, so as to give full play to their final value.

Although the Purple Lightning Sword is Fourth Tier Sword Artifact, theoretically, it can remain stable for thousands of years under conditions of sufficient spiritual energy.

The problem is that there isn't enough spiritual energy, so the Immortal Sect will definitely prioritize supplying them with treasures of the Fifth Order and above.

The Mountain Sea Academy's annual budget is mostly consumed by the Sea Stabilizing Sword, leaving only enough for the Purple Lightning Sword to maintain a minimum level of operation.

"I wonder if the Purple Lightning Sword likes Spirit Stone?"

Thinking of this, the idea flashed through Chen Mobai's mind.

On the other side, Pei Azurefrost had already begun to seek advice from Yan Qiongzhi on her experience in Core Formation. The latter was very thorough, not only playing a video clip of her own Core Formation formation process on the spot, but also taking the initiative to explain the subtle changes in her body's essence, energy, and spirit at that time.

Chen Mobai was also watching with great interest.

Yan Qiongzhi Core Formation core at the Goumang Dao Academy, which is home to the most powerful Water Vein in the Immortal Sect. After the Offline Exchange at the Daoist Academy, she borrowed a Cultivation Room with high-grade Fourth Tier High-grade energy to begin Core Formation.

This was largely thanks to Wenren Xuewei and Pei Azurefrost's influence; otherwise, given her Foundation Establishment cultivation at the time, she could probably only apply for a Fourth Grade low-level room at most.

Yan Qiongzhi's process of Core Formation lasted a full year. She did not take the Water Origin Golden Core Pill at the beginning, but instead slowly improved her spiritual power and Spiritual Sense, starting the process of Core Formation without Core Formation Spiritual Object for it.

She successfully triggered the event, but lacked the necessary foundation to overcome this hurdle on her own.

But this year of experimentation allowed her body to begin adapting to the rhythm of Core Formation.

Therefore, after taking the Water Origin Golden Core Pill, success came naturally.

This is only Immortal Sect. If it were the Eastern Wasteland, the Heavenly Tribulation that lasted for a year would probably be enough to disturb their minds, let alone concentrate on forming their Core Formation.

Yan Qiongzhi shared her successful experience: she possessed a Freezing Art that could delay the condensation of spiritual energy at crucial moments.

It was precisely by using this technique to delay the process of Core Formation that she had the opportunity to try and hone her skills more, laying the foundation for her eventual success.

After listening, Chen Mobai asked about the Freezing Art.

Yan Qiongzhi did not hide anything, but this was a powerful spell that only cultivators with Ice Spirit Root could cast, and that required the cultivation of the Profound Ice Art.

Although Pei Azurefrost also possessed the Golden Water True Spirit Root, she did not transform it into the Ice Spirit Root in order to cultivate the Qingxiao Sword Canon.

Chen Mobai, needless to say, was based on the Pure Yang Scroll, which clashed even more with this Freezing Art.

However, both of them still asked Yan Qiongzhi for the Freezing Art, even if they couldn't master it, just to see it.

"The Immortal Sect has many techniques that can help with Core Formation. You should focus your efforts on techniques that are compatible with your own cultivation methods Spiritual Root, and not waste too much energy on my Freezing Art."

After sending the electronic version to the two of them, Yan Qiongzhi added a final instruction.

After chatting for a while longer, Chen Mobai and Pei Azurefrost said their goodbyes and left.

Before leaving, Chen Mobai asked about Yan Bingxuan's situation. After all, his old classmate only had a year and a half left. If she didn't Foundation Establishment soon, given her personality, she would definitely have to serve in the military.

"After I advanced to the Core Formation, my access to the Immortal Sect Network was greatly enhanced, and I have already helped Xuan'er reserve a bottle of ' Snow Elf Water '."

Third-Tier User of Immortal Sect Network have a powerful privilege: they can select one item released by the official Immortal Sect website each month and pre-order it for themselves before it goes on sale.

After Yan Qiongzhi advanced to the Core Formation Cultivator, this authority could be used to pre-prepare Snow Elf Water.

"I heard her say that Water Mist Ice Crystal are also useful for her Foundation Establishment?"

Chen Mobai still cared about Yan Da Meiren and kept in mind the two Foundation Establishment Spiritual Items that were useful to her.

"The ' Water Mist Ice Crystal ' is not in stock at the official Immortal Sect. If I were to refine it myself in the Polar Cave Heaven Sea, it would take me several years, which would be too late for her to graduate. Now I can only hope that she can successfully establish her Foundation Establishment with the help of the Foundation Establishment Trio and the Snow Elf Water."

Yan Qiongzhi also sighed and said that if Water Mist Ice Crystal were to be artificially synthesized to the Second Grade or higher, it would be necessary to go to the Polar Deep Sea Ice Domain the Earth Origin Star to refine the extremely Water Origin Essence and condense it.

With only a year and a half left before graduation, Yan Bingxuan simply didn't have enough time.

Chen Mobai made a mental note of this, thinking that after returning to the Divine Wood Sect, he would ask his Senior Disciple Liu Wenbai, who was developing the market in the Snow Country.

"I've told you all the information about the Purple Lightning Sword, so don't disappoint me."

After leaving Yan Qiongzhi's residence, Chen Mobai and Pei Azurefrost were flying along the road when they suddenly heard the latter say something like this.

"Do you really want me to become the Sword Master of the Purple Lightning Sword?"

"After all, the story of Purple Lightning and Azure Frost is too famous. I am already the sword master of Azure Frost Sword, so I will definitely be pulled by the immortal sects to discuss with the sword master of Purple Lightning Sword. The others are all Core Formation True Persons. If I were to be compared with them, the pressure would be too great."

Pei Azurefrost gave a reason, and Chen Mobai glanced at her in surprise.

"Compared to you, shouldn't Core Formation True Person be under more pressure?"

"After Core Formation, one is already in the Immortal Sect Upper Echelon, Councilor in the Opening the Origin Hall, nominally the administrator of the Immortal Sect. These people all have the potential to advance further, and they will not feel pressured because I am the daughter of Peach Blossom Venerable."

Pei Azurefrost explained to Chen Mobai in a serious tone, and the latter smiled.

"I'll try my best, but what if I become the Sword Master the Purple Lightning Sword and Core Formation before you? Wouldn't that put even more pressure on you?"

"There is absolutely no such possibility."

Pei Azurefrost shook her head confidently. The sixty-year limit on Core Formation Spirit Medicine Immortal Sect was there, so she would definitely Core Formation earlier than Chen Mobai.

Chen Mobai didn't mention the possibility that she might fail to Core Formation, as that would be a bit too tactless.

He had no intention of obtaining any Core Formation Spiritual Object from the Immortal Sect.

"I'm leaving. Call me if you need anything. White Stone still needs to work harder. Resonance is still useful for the Purple Lightning Sword."

The two had already flown to the middle of the Sword Hilt, and beyond that was Chen Mobai's residence. Pei Azurefrost didn't see them off to the end, but took her leave there.

"Yes, after your demonstration, I know the trick. Five sword energies should be no problem."

Chen Mobai said casually, "Some problems are just that simple. Once you break through that barrier, everything becomes clear."

"What I like about you is your confident tone."

Pei Azurefrost left those words behind and flew away satisfied.
