I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 427
Chapter 427: Chapter 312: Post-War Spoils_1
“Retreat.”
Up in the sky, the voice of Ji Dingjin sounded.
But there was no need for him to say it. After witnessing Chen Mobai turn Mu Hanxiong into flying ashes, the cultivators from Rock Country who came to attack Rolling Thunder Mountain had already lost their will to fight.
Some Foundation Establishment cultivators had guessed the grade of that mirror, their eyes full of fear and a hint of greed.
However, Mu Hanxiong’s ashes still floated in the sky, and no one dared to step further in the direction of Chen Mobai.
Even when the retreat order was given, everyone was eager to leave.
They were afraid that if they left too late, they too would be dispersed by this handsome boy from the Divine Wood Sect.
Chu Zuoshu did not stop them. After all, they were even fewer in number. That they were able to hold off this attack on the mountain was an extraordinary feat.
You must understand that, before the battle, Chu had even hinted at Chen Mobai and the others that if the Earth-Metal Golden Knife Array was broken, everyone should scatter and flee.
Before Ji Dingjin left, he gave Chen Mobai a significant look. The latter, with his powerful divine sense, naturally noticed this glance.
At the moment of their eye contact, Chen Mobai saw a deep murderous intent in Ji Dingjin’s eyes.
He had a feeling that this old man might risk his own life to take him down.
If Chu Zuoshu was not present at the moment, Ji Dingjin might have attacked long ago.
“Don’t pursue a desperate enemy.”
The cultivators from Rock Country escaped through the hole in the Earth-Metal Armour which hadn’t completely repaired itself. More than three hundred cultivators who were still alive on Rolling Thunder Mountain were about to break out to chase them, but Chu Zuoshu stopped them.
Three flashes of spiritual light rose into the sky. It was the Foundation Establishment cultivators from Lei Nation, Lian Chenghai and others. Initially, there were four of them, but the eldest from the Bao family was unlucky and died in Mu Hanxiong’s hands.
The three of them joined forces, halting the Qi practitioners on Rolling Thunder Mountain who were about to pursue their attack.
Chu Zuoshu also gathered the people from Divine Wood Sect and looked at the numbers, his face turned gloomy.
The battle at Rolling Thunder Mountain.
Rock Country lost six Foundation Establishment cultivators, and over two hundred Qi Practitioners.
On the Lei Nation’s side, one of the Foundation Establishment elders of the four major families died, two of the eight Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Reward Virtue Hall of the Divine Wood Sect also died, and the other Qi practitioners suffered a loss of nearly one hundred.
If Chen Mobai hadn’t killed Mu Hanxiong with his Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror, causing the cultivators of Rock Country to be terrified, and if the Earth-Metal Golden Knife Array hadn’t started to repair and close, trapping Ji Dingjin in fear, this battle would not have ended so quickly.
The two Foundation Establishment cultivators from Divine Wood Sect who died were named Feng Feixiong and Liu Mingjing. They were both cultivators at the early Foundation Stage, both died in the midst of the siege.
Chen Mobai had become acquainted with them along the way. It’s a pity that they didn’t get to know each other well before they had closed their eyes forever.
Chu Zuoshu cremated the two bodies directly on Rolling Thunder Mountain, but their storage bags had been seized by the cultivators from Rock Country.
“Record the achievements of the two younger brothers. If they have descendants or disciples who achieve Qi Cultivation Perfection in the future, the sect will prioritize the supply of Foundation Building Pills.”
Yue Zutao listened to Chu Zuoshu’s words and nodded solemnly.
At this moment, Lian Chenghai and the other two came over. They were accompanied by a grieving-looking boy of fifteen or sixteen and presented a storage bag.
“Master Chu, this is the most outstanding member of the Bao family’s current generation. Let him consume the Foundation Building Pill. If possible, we hope that he could become your disciple. This is the tribute to the master from the Bao family.”
Chu Zuoshu nodded in agreement to the first half of Lian Chenghai’s words.
“I have not accepted any disciples for a long time. However, the Foundation Building Pill is my commitment. As soon as the next batch of Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms matures, as long as he achieves Qi Cultivation Perfection, the first one will be supplied to him.”
Since he didn’t agree to accept a disciple, naturally, Chu Zuoshu did not accept the storage bag.
“After the elder Bao died, the three veins of the Bao family have already started to fight internally. Although QiYuan was the successor appointed by Elder Bao in advance, I’m afraid that even if the Foundation Building Pill comes down, it may not reach QiYuan’s hands.”
Lian Chenghai sighed and handed the object to the young man of the Bao surname.
“Great Immortal Chen, I want to acknowledge you as my master to learn swordsmanship.”
After receiving the storage bag, QiYuan took a firm bite and directly turned around and knelt in front of Chen Mobai, his hands held high.
“For the elders of our sect to accept a disciple, one must first become a disciple of our sect.”
Chen Mobai was taken aback but refused tactfully.
At the same time, he held out his hand, and his soft Longevity Spiritual Power pulled QiYuan up.
Indeed, there was such a rule in the Divine Wood Sect. Chen Mobai had learned this from Yuan Chiye during his time at the Bud Hall.
Foundation Establishment cultivators who were traveling around, seeing those with exceptional Spiritual Root Talents, would first have the disciples join the Divine Wood Sect before accepting them as disciples.
The reason for this additional step was because this was a rule passed down from the time of the Five Elements Sect. It was set up by Hun Yuan Grandmaster.
Although the Divine Wood Sect had split up, they still recognize this Grandmaster.
“Why not acknowledge the Divine Wood Sect first? I wonder if this is okay.”
Seeing this, Lian Chenghai immediately intervened.
Meeting this small request, Chu Zuoshu naturally agreed.
The battle with Shake Mountain Peak had been planned by the high-levels long ago, expecting that the number of Qi cultivation disciples in the sect would decrease substantially after the battle. They predicted that the normally every-decade crossing of the boundary to accept disciples might have to be shortened.
Chu Zuoshu, as the future sect leader, still had the right to accept a disciple into the Divine Wood Sect in advance.
“The Earth-Metal Golden Knife Array has been fully repaired, but too much spiritual energy from the earth veins has been extracted. The next time Shake Mountain attacks, the power may not be as great as it was today.”
