I Have A Cultivation World

Although he understood why the Divine Wood Sect recruited Loose Cultivators, Chen Mobai still yearned for the Foundation Building Pill-

Just one of these pills could reportedly give a Qi Practitioner at the level of Qi Cultivation completion, a minimum of 30% success rate in Foundation Establishment, making it quite the divine ascension spiritual medicine.

Even if overdosed, Chen Mobai was willing to give the Foundation Building Pill

a try.

After all, he would have enough time to detoxify the pill after Foundation

Establishment.

However, even though Divine Wood Sect was the most inclusive amongst the Big Seven of the Eastern Wilderness, the enrollment for Loose Cultivators only happened once every decade, highly favoring those with talisman-creation capabilities. After all, Qi Practitioners with this talent could become a source of revenue for the sect with just a bit of nurturing.

Moreover, to earn enough sect contributions for the Foundation Building Pill, these individuals would work to their utmost capability in talisman crafting and task completion. Cultivators who grew in such an environment and subsequently succeeded in Foundation Establishment were usually of high accomplishment.

Chen Mobai considered his options, deciding that he needed to sharpen his talisman-making skills as soon as possible if he wanted a shot at fitting in. Hence, after the entrance exams, he decided to prioritize talisman crafting right after cultivation, utilizing the crafting instructions recorded in the “Divine Wood Sect Talisman Crafting Guide”.

Daylight had finally arrived.

After making preparations and equipping himself, Chen Mobai rented a boat for the first time to hunt demonic beasts.

He was fully prepared, stocked with talismans, and had even chosen the Black Armored Turtle- a beast famous in Yun Meng Ze for its strong defense and weak offense. As such, this solo endeavor went off without any unexpected twists, and he easily slaughtered an isolated turtle.

However, during the process, he ran into the Ba siblings, who had also rented a boat.

Chen Mobai and the siblings exchanged greetings from across the lake and then each took their spoils and sailed off in separate directions back to Green

Light Island.

“I feel as though the pair are on guard around me.”

Muttering to himself on his boat, Chen Mobai realized that interpersonal caution in the Tianhe Realm was much more intense than he had thought. Despite a few shared fights with the Ba siblings, they kept him at bay during their meeting in Yun Meng Ze.

As for this, Chen Mobai could only count himself lucky that he hadn’t run into Qi Hou and his fellow disciples. That would have been truly awkward.

Once he safely returned to Green Light Island, Chen Mobai sold the Black Armored Turtle he had killed to a beast vendor on the pier. Since his talismans were primarily used for binding and trapping, the most valuable part of the beast- the turtle shell, was perfectly preserved. He sold it for two Spirit Stones.

After being processed by an Artifact Refiner, these turtle shells became defensive magic artifacts.

Chen Mobai kept a turtle leg for himself. He had even brought some seasonings this time, planning to cook this nutritious ingredient. However, as he was about to carry the cut turtle leg back to his wooden hut, a streak of spiritual light, like an arrow leaving the bow, flew from the distant lake and hit a cart full of beast meat nearby.

Instantly, flesh and blood splattered everywhere.

Chen Mobai acted swiftly, using his Water Controlling Technique. A hemisphere of water formed in front of him, blocking all the flying pieces of flesh and blood.

“Which little bastard blew up the goods I painstakingly gathered all morning?” An eighth-layer Qi Practitioner, ignoring the flesh and blood on him, furiously rushed to the spiritual light. He crushed it with a punch, pulled out the person inside, and prepared to give him a good beating.

“Quickly inform the Island Lord, there’s an army of… demonic beasts… charging towards us…”

The person inside the spiritual light managed to spit out this sentence, even as he continuously coughed up blood. The powerful talisman he had been clasping turned into ashes.

“It’s him.”

Chen Mobai saw that the person was Ba Jiang and was taken aback.

At this time, the two disciples of the Divine Wood Sect who had been watching the show on the dock, showed a drastic change in their expressions when they heard Ba Jiang’s words. One of them instantly pushed away the meat vendor who was about to interject, while the other, with distressed eyes, quickly applied a Life Recovery Talisman.

“Send a message to Uncle Zheng, the most urgent one!

After applying the talisman and preserving Ba Jiang’s remaining life, the disciple of the Divine Wood Sect gave this command to his brother, who nodded, pulled a talisman for internal communication from his chest, and launched it into the sky after infusing it with spiritual power.

Whoom!

A pillar of firework-like light shot instantly into the sky. Anyone outside on Green Light Island could see it clearly.

“What has happened!”

Not even a minute after the talisman was launched, a white-haired old man with powerful spiritual light flew from the top of Green Light Island. His gaze was as sharp as a knife. He stood in mid-air, his powerful aura telling Chen Mobai that he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

“A loose cultivator reported that an army of demonic beasts is heading towards Green Light Island.”

The Divine Wood Sect cultivator stationed at the dock promptly informed the Uncle Zheng of the situation.

Upon hearing the news, the white-haired old man immediately flew higher up, and Chen Mobai clearly saw him shooting twelve talismans in all directions. About eight or nine breaths later, seven of the talismans flew back to his palm. “Everyone withdraw to the island immediately and start the Large Formation. Send messages to our disciples and other members outside, telling them not to return to the island and find their own way to survive.”

This senior named Zheng, who was stationed in Yun Meng Ze for many years was well prepared for a situation like this. After confirming the authenticity of the demonic beast army using a Demon-searching Talisman, he began to issue orders and arrange for the sect members.

“Yes, Uncle Zheng!”

The Wood Sect disciple who was holding Ba Jiang immediately laid down the now useless messenger and began to activate the nodal points of the Large Formation on the shore along with his fellow disciple.

As for the other Loose Cultivators on the shore, needless to say, they scattered in an instant once the Foundation Establishment cultivator spoke, abandoning their goods to rush to the Fang Market to buy battle talismans, magic artifacts, and medicinal pills.

The cultivators who had just left the island were somewhat lucky; the Divine Wood Sect disciples waited for them to come ashore before activating the

Large Formation.

But those who were far away could only pray for their good fortune.

It seemed even the disciples of Divine Wood Sect who left the island could only rely on their luck according to the cultivator who had achieved Foundation Establishment. They only hoped they would not encounter the demonic beast army and survive this catastrophe.

Chen Mobai, seeing the now empty dock, immediately ran to Ba Jiang, who was on his last breath, having seemed to have used up all his spiritual power to activate a life-saving talisman and hoisted him onto his back.

Ba Jiang was moved to see that Chen Mobai hadn’t fled but had chosen to save him instead in such a situation.

“Where’s your sister?”

Chen Mobai remembered that not long ago, he had seen the Ba siblings.

“She’s dead.”

These two simple words caused Chen Mobai to stop in his tracks. He was once again confronted with the dangers of the Tianhe Realm..
