Chen Mobai's Opportunity for Enlightenment

Chen Mobai met Bai Si's gaze, smiled slightly, and the latter seemed a little stunned before hurriedly nodding.

"Sect Master Chen, isn't this border line a bit inappropriate?"

Zhu Jinyu spoke in a somewhat weak tone. Facing Chen Mobai, the only Core Formation Cultivator Sect Leader in the Eastern Wasteland, she had already tried her best to show the demeanor of the Blowing Snow Palace Sect Leader and was unwilling to back down on the border.

"This was demarcated by the former Primordial Ancestor, and personally approved by True Person Kong. Does Sect Leader Zhu not know this? Or do you think that the boundaries set by the Five Elements Sect are not worthy of our Divine Wood Sect?"

Chen Mobai pointed to the map he had brought, still smiling, but his tone turned cold.

"Sect Master Chen, you are exaggerating. However, many people from our Snow Country have already settled down in this area and have lived and multiplied for four or five generations. If the border line is drawn across, they will definitely be reluctant to leave their homeland. If they cause trouble, there will be chaos in the secular world. If it triggers a war between the two countries, there will probably be another bloodbath."

Zhu Jinyu used a pre-prepared excuse, saying that when the Primordial Ancestor was alive, the entire Eastern Wasteland depended on him for survival, and the boundaries he set were naturally very disadvantageous to their Blowing Snow Palace.

Later, taking advantage of the Five Elements Sect splitting up, the Blowing Snow Palace instructed the mortal dynasties of the Snow Country and Shuang Country to take action and expand the borders considerably towards the Yun Country and Lei Kingdom.

At that time, the Divine Wood Sect was busy fighting with the Five Elements Sect Sect's main family, so they could only pretend not to know. Later, in order to prevent Kong Lingling from siding with the Five Elements Sect, Zhou Shengqing even came to the Blowing Snow Palace in person.

The two Core Formation Ancestors discussed many things and agreed that the territories of Yun Country and Lei Kingdom occupied by the Blowing Snow Palace would belong to the Blowing Snow Palace, and Divine Wood Sect would not pursue the matter. Kong Lingling would also not intervene in the internal war of the Five Elements Sect, ensuring that the disciples of Primordial Ancestor could fight without any worries.

However, at that time, Kong Lingling considered that Zhou Shengqing and Mo Douguang might not be a match for Zhou Ye and the other two. In order to avoid being held accountable by the Five Elements Sect when they were defeated, these were all verbal agreements.

Therefore, even though Zhu Jinyu knew that the border line was agreed upon by Zhou Shengqing and Kong Lingling, she did not dare to speak up about it.

Without a written agreement or oath, cultivators in the Eastern Wasteland have always been quick to renege on their promises.

Therefore, even though she was on her own territory, Zhu Jinyu still found herself in a difficult position when faced with the pressure from Chen Mobai, Core Formation Cultivator.

In recent years, whether the entire Eastern Wasteland is in chaos or not has been entirely up to the Divine Wood Sect.

She was afraid that if she spoke too harshly, Chen Mobai, who had led the Divine Wood Sect in battles across the country over the years and was known as the God of Slaughter, would immediately lose his temper if he was displeased.

But Zhu Jinyu was still very unwilling to just hand over the territory that he had occupied for seventy or eighty years and had painstakingly developed into his own territory without any resistance. There were several mines and a lot of Spirit Field there, all of which were the result of his hard work.

"There's no need for Sect Leader Zhu to worry about that. As long as you return the border, the Divine Wood Sect will naturally send people over to handle the rest of the education and guidance. We will ensure that the Snow Country Shuang Country under your jurisdiction do not cause any trouble."

Chen Mobai emphasized again.

As a cultivator born into the Immortal Sect, he knew best that a unified, centralized power was the best way to develop and bring peace and tranquility to all living beings.

The Divine Wood Sect now occupies one-third of the Eastern Wasteland. His goal is to have two more Core Formation Cultivator in the sect during his term as Sect Leader, and then bring the entire Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland under his control.

Now, the Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland, which is the territory occupied by the Blowing Snow Palace Nan Xuan Sect, is no longer under their control.

Among them, because the Nan Xuan Sect was backed by the Xuanxiao Dao Palace, before Zhou Shengqing transformed into Dharma Body Nascent Soul, Chen Mobai could only develop the power of his own sect and suppress him using various methods other than force.

Compared to the Nan Xuan Sect, the Blowing Snow Palace was far weaker.

However, Zhou Shengqing and Kong Lingling had reached an agreement that they would not attack or invade each other without sufficient pretext.

Moreover, Chen Mobai was a peace-loving person. He wondered if he could use non-military means to gradually erode the Blowing Snow Palace and divide and conquer the Snow Country and Shuang Country territories into the Divine Wood Sect.

This is the second new policy decree issued by Chen Mobai after he took over as Sect Leader.

The so-called new policy can be summarized in four words: Unify Eastern Wasteland! However, Chen Mobai knew that this new policy was still too grand and ambitious for many cultivators of the Divine Wood Sect, so so far, he had only revealed it to a few people, such as Yue Zutao.

He has always been a very self-disciplined person. After arriving in the Sky River Realm, setting foot in the Eastern Wasteland, and witnessing the chaos there, this thought has been lingering in his mind.

More than twenty years have passed, and he has come to understand the Eastern Wasteland more and more. His original thoughts have also transformed into a firm ideal over time! He wants to end the chaos in the Eastern Wasteland Wilderness and bring unprecedented peace to this land that has been plagued by war and where mortals are treated like livestock.

Now, Chen Mobai finally has the strength and influence to put this ideal into practice!

As long as he keeps moving forward towards this goal, one day, the Eastern Wasteland will be transformed into the "Minor Immortal Sect" of his dreams.

I don't know if it's just my imagination or what.

The moment Chen Mobai ascended to the position of Divine Wood Sect Leader, all the trivial thoughts from the past in his mind were integrated into the four words "Unify Eastern Wasteland".

At that time, he even clearly sensed the opportunity for enlightenment.

If he were still Foundation Establishment Cultivator and had completed the Unify Eastern Wasteland, then he would have been able to Core Formation by Enlightenment at the moment of his accomplishment, just like the Immortal Affairs Hall Master.

Where the heart leads, there lies the Way!

This is also a summary of the content on Core Formation by Enlightenment within the Immortal Sect. Chen Mobai had read it before he Core Formation, and had dreamed of whether he had this possibility.

Unfortunately, after reading more than a dozen related books, I was still completely confused.

But after becoming the Divine Wood Sect Leader, he gradually came to understand.

Perhaps it's because I've reached a higher level of understanding, or perhaps I've truly grasped the essence of it.

I just don't know what the benefits are of Core Formation at the Core Formation stage? When he was in Foundation Establishment, he Dao Awakening and obtained the "Fire Spirit Body," which provided him with tremendous help in cultivating the Azure Flame Sword Sha, Core Formation, and so on.

Enlightenment is above Dao Awakening. Can you help him comprehend the mysteries of Nascent Formation?

Chen Mobai's idea was a bit too optimistic, but at least this gave him even more motivation to realize his ideals in the Eastern Wasteland.

"Sect Master Chen, the border issue involves Primordial Ancestor, True Person Zhou Shengqing, and my master True Person True Person Kong. In order to avoid affecting the Human Dao Realm of our two sects, let's resolve it using the Spell Duel commonly used in the Eastern Wasteland."

Just as Zhu Jinyu was in a dilemma, Bai Si, who was beside her, stepped forward and immediately caught Chen Mobai's attention with his words.

"Oh, so this is Bai, who is as famous as my junior nephew Zong Hong. As expected of Master True Person Kong's Indoor Disciple, he is already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment at such a young age. He is truly a formidable young man."

The Five-Colored Immortal Seed is a legend left behind by the ancient Primordial Ancestor. He also had some knowledge of the Divination Department. When he left the Primordial Unity Dao Palace in the Eastern Lands, he used the secret treasure left by his master, the True Monarch Yi Yuan, to perform a divination, mainly to see if he had the opportunity to break through.

But it allowed him to glimpse the future of the Eastern Wasteland, where five peerless geniuses belonging to the Five Elements elements would emerge, bringing the Eastern Wasteland and even the nearby Eastern Yi and Eastern Wu Realm regions to unprecedented heights.

If the Primordial Ancestor could live to that time and acquire all Five-Colored Immortal Seed, he might even be able to use their Five Elements Spiritual Power to elevate the Primordial Dao Fruit to a higher level in the future.

For this reason, later on, when Primordial Ancestor accepted disciples, he did so according to the Five Elements Attribute.

Besides inheriting the Legacy, I also want to see if it's possible to artificially cultivate the Five-Colored Immortal Seed.

When the Primordial Ancestor suppressed the Eastern Wasteland, he did not hide this matter. He collected geniuses with the Five Elements Attribute all over the world, especially those with the Heaven Spirit Root.

Nu Jiang of the Water Vein and Sheng Zhaoxi of the Fire Vein were both disciples snatched from other sects, but they were both very willing to become disciples of the Primordial Ancestor.

It was precisely for this reason that Zhou Ye, with his Heaven Spirit Root, was highly valued by the Primordial Ancestor after entering the sect. The Ancestor believed that Zhou Ye could inherit his Legacy and perhaps even be able to wait for the Five-Colored Immortal Seed to join the Primordial Immortal City and build the Five Elements Sect into a Great Holy Land outside the Eastern Lands.

The Primordial Ancestor wanted to prove that he was the true disciple who had received the true teachings of the True Monarch Yi Yuan, and not Primordial Unity Dao Palace who held positions without doing any work.

"How will Junior Nephew Bai engage in Spell Duel? Me and Sect Leader Zhu?"

Chen Mobai recalled the secrets about the Five-Colored Immortal Seed recorded by the Divine Wood Sect. After carefully examining Bai Si from head to toe, he couldn't help but smile and speak.

"Sect Master Chen is joking. I'm afraid I don't even have the courage to make a move against you, the number one Spell Duel in the Eastern Wasteland First Sword Cultivator."

Zhu Jinyu immediately waved her hands repeatedly, indicating that she had given up.

"Spell Duel must be fair and just. How about limiting it to Foundation Establishment Cultivator? I represent the Blowing Snow Palace. Your sect can send anyone who can defeat me. As for the border, it will be drawn according to Sect Master Chen's request."

Facing the gaze of Chen Mobai, Core Formation Cultivator, Bai Si remained calm, suppressing her pounding heart, and spoke in a composed tone, displaying the demeanor of the First Fairy of the Blowing Snow Palace.

"Foundation Establishment Spell Duel, huh...?"

Chen Mobai glanced at the people he had brought. Mu Yuan was the strongest in terms of combat power, but he was only at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment. He was not a Spell Duel genius like himself and could not possibly be a match for Bai Si, who was at the late Foundation Establishment.

"If I transfer Hong He here, will you feel resentful?"

Chen Mobai suddenly asked Bai Si a question.

Although there are quite a few cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage within the entire Divine Wood Sect, Hong He is as famous as Bai Si, and his reputation has always been above Bai Si's. The two are also considered arch-enemies by the people of the Eastern Wasteland.

"Sect Master Chen may not know that I have fought with Junior Brother Hong He three times, and all three times the battle ended in a draw."

Bai Si remained calm and confident as he spoke.

Chen Mobai: "Forget it, waiting for Hong He to come will take several more days. Since you want to Spell Duel, and it's on your Blowing Snow Palace's territory, I'll give you face."

Zhu Jinyu: "Thank you, Sect Master Chen..."

Chen Mobai: "Don't thank me yet. Although I've agreed, I have one request."

Zhu Jinyu: "Please speak!"

Chen Mobai: "I have eight junior disciples behind me, all of whom are in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. They will all come up on stage. Your Blowing Snow Palace can send someone to challenge them and have a Spell Duel. If more than four of the eight lose, then the border line will be drawn according to what your Blowing Snow Palace said."

This request left Zhu Jinyu, Lan Lingping, and Bai Si looking at each other in bewilderment.

All the elite cultivators of their Blowing Snow Palace are here. They can find eight mid- Foundation Establishment cultivators, or even late-stage cultivators like Bai Si, to take action and crush them with their Cultivation Realm.

Is there some conspiracy they haven't figured out? "I forgot to add one point: the cultivators you Blowing Snow Palace challenged are only at the early Foundation Establishment Cultivation Realm."

Chen Mobai's words relieved Zhu Jinyu and the other two.

"It seems that Sect Master Chen has a lot of confidence in his sect's disciples."

Zhu Jinyu's words made Chen Mobai smile slightly, but he did not reply.

In the silence, Zhu Jinyu and Lan Lingping exchanged a glance, their faces showing difficulty. Although they were unwilling to admit it, the disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, who had fought in the north and south over the years, had all experienced wars that destroyed sects and countries. It was very likely that the cultivators of the same level from their Blowing Snow Palace would not be a match for them.

However, these words could not be said in front of the disciples of the two sects, otherwise it would only embolden the enemy.

"It seems that Sect Master Chen believes that no one in your sect is my match, so he is using this condition to restrict me from Spell Duel."

Bai Si naturally noticed the dilemma of his two senior sisters and spoke up again.

She truly deserves to be called a genius girl; even when facing Core Formation Cultivator like Chen Mobai, she dares to say such things.

"Haha, I like confident people. Since that's the case, then I'll give you a chance to save Blowing Snow Palace and become a hero."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai burst into laughter, then pointed at Bai Si and added another condition.

"You may choose any five of my eight disciples. If you can defeat them all, then this Spell Duel will be considered a victory for your Blowing Snow Palace!"

This is how Bai Si managed to take on five opponents at once!

Upon hearing this, the blue-haired girl's clear eyes suddenly flashed with intense fighting spirit, and she was inspired by Chen Mobai's words to fight with unprecedented determination.

"Since we're here, let all eight of us come up on stage."

"If I were to bully Foundation Establishment cultivator with my current cultivation level, even if I won, Sect Master Chen might not be convinced. So I'll just use my Foundation Establishment level."

"To ensure fairness, we will not Magic Artifact, Talisman, or elixirs during the Spell Duel. We will only rely on our magical skills. If your sect's eight cultivators can make me take a step back, I will consider myself the loser!"

Bai Si's confidence and arrogance made Chen Mobai's face show admiration.

He possessed the prowess Immortal Sect in his youth, single-handedly suppressing all the Foundation Establishment prodigies of the immortal sects.

Moreover, despite his confidence, he did not lose his composure and set conditions that prevented the use of external objects.

Otherwise, if Chen Mobai had simply crafted a Azure Flame Sword Talisman and handed it to the disciple who came up on stage, Bai Si would definitely have died without a burial place.

The first step to Unify Eastern Wasteland is to destroy the confidence of a genius!

Chen Mobai smiled and nodded in agreement!
