After Yan Bingxuan helped him resolve a potential obstacle to Nascent formation, Chen Mobai finished his preparations and began the process.

After overcoming a dangerous surge in his Pure Yang True Qi, he completed all three passes and emerged as a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Chen Mobai’s sudden Nascent Soul attempt alarmed the Immortal Sect, but he ultimately refined a Nascent Soul, stunning everyone.

He leaves the Finance Department meeting having secured replacements for two candidates and proposing that Ling Dao Shi give up his pill.

• Chen Mobai proposed that Ling Dao Shi yield his pill so a public servant from the Hundred and Twenty Mansions could receive one, provoking Nangong Xuanyu’s anger.

Chen Mobai fought the Sky Mending Lineage over the Immortal Sect’s Core Formation list, then rejected Ying Guanghua’s attempt to trade Ling Dao Shi’s approval for access to the Jade Wutong. At the next meeting, he objected to Ling Dao Shi’s name again, and Nangong Xuanyu rose to confront him.

• Chen Mobai won a vote to screen out Ling Dao Shi’s pill and appoint a Green Mulberry Academy graduate, despite Lan Haitan’s opposition and the abstentions of neutral members.
• After the meeting, Chen Mobai learned that the Sky Mending Lineage could seek to reopen the vote, while he expected Ying Guanghua to negotiate with him; Ying Guanghua offered to support his request for the Jade Wutong if Ling Dao Shi returned to the list.
• Chen Mobai refused Ying Guanghua’s proposed exchange and discussed Core Formation plans with Meng Huang'er, offering to arrange Fourth Tier High-grade spiritual energy for her at the Myriad Treasures Cave Center.
• Chen Mobai failed to secure a timely audience with Ancestor Qianxing and suspected Ying Guanghua was stalling, so he reconsidered whether to keep Ling Dao Shi screened out.
• At the next meeting, Chen Mobai objected to Ling Dao Shi’s pill again, and the vote screened it out once more as Nangong Xuanyu rose and walked toward him.
