Chapter 1624: Chapter 807_2

“Indeed, Elder Muqin of Kong Sang Valley is nearing the end of her lifespan and no longer has the strength to act. They can only rely on Ku Zhu to bitterly hold the line. If I am willing to step in, they will undoubtedly be overjoyed.”

“However, despite our Eastern Wasteland Five Elements Sect having two Nascent Soul cultivators—Brother Zhou and myself—if we were to face both Golden Wind Ancestor and Baiwu Ancestor simultaneously, we would still be somewhat overmatched. Therefore, I need Kong Sang Valley to step in to hold off the Sun Bathing Sea.”

“But it would be best not to initiate this request from my side. If Kong Sang Valley could ask for assistance first, that would be ideal. Thus, I need to carefully plan and arrange for this.”

Chen Mobai shared his plan, and Qing Nu nodded repeatedly upon hearing it.

Having lived in the Tianhe Realm for so many years, she had grown accustomed to the constant strife and mutual slaughter here.

Especially in recent years, with the Alchemists of the Five Elements Meridians, alongside those led by Yan Shaoyin from Back to Sky Valley, all being trained by her at Mount Tianpeng, Qing Nu had encountered many people and deepened her understanding of this world.

Here, the word “struggle” permeated the life of every cultivator!

Qing Nu herself couldn’t fathom how, if she had suddenly arrived in this world, she could have achieved what Chen Mobai did—establishing such a vast foundation for the Eastern Wasteland Five Elements Sect, single-handedly.

The more she learned about the Tianhe Realm, the more she admired Chen Mobai’s strength.

And such strength encompassed every area, leaving no weakness.

Cultivation, comprehension, interpersonal relationships, power management, economic development, unifying nations and sects to mobilize resources for infrastructural projects—Qing Nu felt she could barely manage the first two. Yet Chen Mobai excelled in all six aspects.

The man she called her own was truly perfect.

Qing Nu increasingly felt fortunate to have come to this unfamiliar world with him, becoming the only person who truly understood him, sharing their lives as Dao partners.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

Upon hearing Qing Nu’s words, Chen Mobai smiled and shook his head.

“Leave the killing to me; you stay here in the Eastern Wasteland as the guardian.”

Hearing this, Qing Nu felt even sweeter in her heart.

After spending a wonderful evening together at Mount Tianpeng, Chen Mobai returned to Giant Tree Ridge the following day.

“Junior Brother! Have you successfully completed Nascent Soul Formation?”

Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue, upon receiving the news, immediately rushed over from their Longevity Wood Dojo. Seeing the tall, upright young man, whose presence merged with the majestic Spirit Vein, yet seemed detached from the void, both were astonished and overjoyed.

“It was mere luck…”

Humbly admitting his success, Chen Mobai saw both Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue’s faces light up with excitement.

“Good, good, good! Now I can meet Master Hunyuan in the Underworld with my head held high,” Zhou Shengqing said with hearty laughter.

He had always wrestled with guilt over the division of the Five Elements Sect. Though it had now been reunified, he still felt he had failed Master Hunyuan Ancestor.

However, with Chen Mobai’s success in Nascent Soul Formation, Zhou Shengqing could now boldly say to his master in the Underworld: “Master, you were wrong; my choice was the one that made the Five Elements Sect truly great!”

With a wave of his broad sleeve, Chen Mobai caused tea tables and chairs to materialize beneath the Longevity Wood and invited the two men to sit down as he outlined his plan.

“Indeed, when the split happened, Zhao Xuankang of Xuan Xiao Dao Palace was the most vocal. Though he perished by my hand, Golden Wind Ancestor, the mastermind behind it all, remains alive. Only by killing him and crushing Xuan Xiao Dao Palace will the vendetta be fully settled.”

Zhou Shengqing readily raised both hands in agreement.

In the local mentality, gaining strength almost always meant first settling one’s blood vendettas and annihilating all enemies.

“With our current strength in the Five Elements Sect, we far surpass the declining Xuan Xiao Dao Palace. This time, leading an army to the East Barbarians, if we eliminate Golden Wind Ancestor, Xuan Xiao Dao Palace can finally be erased for good,” Fu Zongjue said, brimming with excitement.

After all, back when they were still the Divine Wood Sect, their most difficult years had been the wars with the Nanxuan Sect. Without Chen Mobai achieving Core Formation and returning, the entire Eastern Wasteland could well have been turned into Xuan Xiao Dao Palace’s backyard by now.

Were it not for Kong Sang Valley, the two factions might have concluded their life-and-death struggle decades ago.

“My suggestion is to collaborate with Kong Sang Valley. If we could provoke Golden Wind Ancestor into leading Xuan Xiao Dao Palace’s full army against the Eastern Wasteland, then success would be guaranteed.”

Chen Mobai expressed his thoughts.

Currently, Xuan Xiao Dao Palace and the Sun Bathing Sea were allied to besiege Kong Sang Valley. If Chen Mobai were to intervene, he would face both Golden Wind Ancestor and Baiwu Ancestor. In such circumstances, he couldn’t count on Ku Zhu abandoning the sect’s centuries-old Large Formation to assist.

Thus, the ideal scenario would involve Kong Sang Valley showing weakness—such as Ku Zhu declaring a Daoist Heart Oath to seal the mountain for a hundred years—prompting the tired Xuan Xiao Dao Palace and Sun Bathing Sea to withdraw their armies.

Once the threat from Ku Zhu was neutralized, Golden Wind Ancestor would undoubtedly shift his focus due to his dwindling lifespan, preparing Xuan Xiao Dao Palace’s future.

Golden Wind Ancestor, given the absence of a Nascent Soul successor in his sect, had already planned to abandon the East Barbarians and retreat to the Eastern Wasteland to preserve the sect’s lineage.

There had been no indication his plan had changed.

After all, the Eastern Wasteland still bore a deep-seated grudge with the Five Elements Sect.

Based on Chen Mobai’s understanding of the locals, Golden Wind Ancestor would undoubtedly lead the entirety of Xuan Xiao Dao Palace’s forces into the Eastern Wasteland to carve out a new path and simultaneously settle old scores.
