I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1205: Chapter 662 Status Promotion_2 Chapter 1205: Chapter 662 Status Promotion_2 Master Chengxuan made the key point; he was transcendent and did not express his opinion on this matter.

Fifty-seven Golden Core Masters had graduated from the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Among them, those who were over three JiZi in age no longer had the qualifications to guard the Treasure Trove and the Fifth-Rank Vermilion Fruit Tree, leaving sixteen eligible candidates.

Not counting Chen Mobai, that was fifteen.

Excluding the special case of Yu Tianguang, there were fourteen.

Among them, True Person Shaoyang, Qin Beichen, also had a notable reputation.

However, those who had achieved Golden Core status, due to their connections, background, and talent, were all top-notch; about five or six were not inferior to Qin Beichen, even surpassing him.

As Master Chengxuan had said, without Chen Mobai, who was the widely anticipated future leader, every remaining candidate had an opportunity.

Currently, the news of Duanmu’s failure had not yet spread, so things were still calm.

Once Duanmu returned home to recuperate, Chen Mobai would instantly become the most coveted among all the Golden Core Masters at Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Because his qualifications for Divinity Transformation had essentially confirmed him as one of the future leaders of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, his support would almost certainly secure the position.

“Why don’t you come back for a while?”

Master Chengxuan suddenly made this remark.

“As a council member of the Kaiyuan Hall, it’s not advisable for me to leave lightly…”

Chen Mobai instinctively began to speak but was immediately interrupted by Master Chengxuan.

“It can be arranged. I’ll help you with the procedure, it’ll be quick.”

If a Nascent Soul Superior intervened, the procedures at the Kaiyuan Hall would indeed be expedited since Elder Yuanxu had previously helped Chen Mobai in this matter.

“Alright then, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen my master.”

Chen Mobai no longer hesitated, nodding his approval right away. Furthermore, with Duanmu Longrong’s failure in “Nascent Soul Formation”, he was bound both by sentiment and reason to pay a visit.

It was also a good opportunity to help Qin Beichen gain some support.

Master Chengxuan took care of the arrangements, which indeed proved incredibly swift.

The next day, Chen Mobai received notice from the Kaiyuan Hall Rotational Committee stating that in addition to the Repairing Heaven Institute, he could now also visit the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Of course, this permission had a validity of ten years.

However, as long as the two Nascent Soul Superiors who applied for him were still present, his pass would continuously be automatically renewed at the Kaiyuan Hall.

This was essentially a guarantee from Elder Yuanxu and Chengxuan for his behalf.

After obtaining the pass, Chen Mobai informed a few people close to him in Red Sandstone City, then booked a ticket to Red City Cave Heaven.

“Teacher, it’s been a long time.”

In the office of building one, Che Yucheng, who seemed much older, lookED at Chen Mobai carrying a basket of fruits and tea, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

“Come in, have a seat.”

The two talked for a long time, mainly with Che Yucheng asking questions and Chen Mobai answering.

It seemed that with age, one tends to become more talkative. Chen Mobai noticed that Che Yucheng talked much more than during his time studying at the academy.

If Cheng Xuan hadn’t called them up, perhaps Che Yucheng might have kept talking.

In the president’s office, the pale-looking Duanmu Longrong was also present.

Compared to their last meeting, the vice-president seemed ravaged by time, her previously smooth, elastic skin now saggy and even slightly spotted with age spots, her hair also white and dry.

Seeing the youthful, handsome Chen Mobai walk in, Duanmu Longrong looked envious and sighed softly.

“Duanmu teacher…”

After presenting his prepared gifts to her, Chen Mobai also did not know how to comfort her, standing by, hesitating to speak.

“It’s a laughing matter; this is how it turns out when the Hugging Elixir Technique fails to breach the Nascent Soul stage, revealing one’s true, aged self.”

Instead, Duanmu Longrong was the one who initiated the conversation. Downstairs in the office, Chen Mobai had also learned all the details from Che Yucheng.

The so-called Hugging Elixir Technique was a secret technique developed by practitioners of the Lasting Spring Cultivation at Jumang Academy. Inspired by the characteristics of the Lasting Spring Cultivation, it aimed to lock all inner Essence, Qi, and Spirit to form an impervious domain.

But once you unleash your domain and burst forth with all your power, this characteristic will become ineffective, and the traces of years that had previously been paused will all erode you simultaneously.

Later at the Repairing Heaven Institute, a Golden Core Master used the Hugging Elixir Technique to lock his youth, and only when it was time for “Nascent Soul Formation” did he burst forth in strength, and using that brief peak, he overcame the bottleneck.

Since then, the Hugging Elixir Technique had become standard for all Golden Core Masters in the Immortal Gate who wished to undergo “Nascent Soul Formation” but were nearing the end of their prime.

“If it were you, you would definitely succeed…”

Duanmu Longrong had great expectations for Chen Mobai. Seeing his excessively youthful face, which did not require the Hugging Elixir Technique, she wanted to persuade him once again to accept the path of “Nascent Soul Formation” of the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

“Thank you, Teacher Duanmu, but I personally do not like constraints.”

Chen Mobai spoke frankly, leading Duanmu Longrong to sigh once again.

Soon, Qin Beichen also arrived and was shocked to see the aged Duanmu Longrong.

Clearly, the news of Duanmu Longrong’s failed “Nascent Soul Formation” was only known to those present.

“Little Qin, after Duanmu, would you be willing to take her place in guarding the deepest part of the Treasure Trove, overseeing the fifth-rank Vermillion Fruit Tree?”

Master Chengxuan asked. Upon hearing this, Qin Beichen’s eyes brightened, and he was visibly excited.

However, after glancing at Chen Mobai, he hesitated and did not immediately agree.

“It was Little Chen who recommended you, and I also think that three hundred years for him would be too much of a waste. Given his talents, he might become the next Yuanyang Ancestor, not needing external resources and just relying on his profound foundation to cross this great realm.”

Master Chengxuan’s words made Chen Mobai feel somewhat embarrassed; he didn’t expect the casual boastful claims used to maintain his public image were actually taken seriously by the dean.

But at that moment, he could not jump out and argue but had to modestly and self-assuredly wave his hands with a smile.

“Thank you.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Beichen understood the reason he could get this opportunity.

In addition to Chen Mobai’s renunciation, it was also because the choice had landed on him.

“Afterwards, Little Chen, you and Little Qin should have a meal together in a public setting. Express your stance to let others see.”

Master Chengxuan’s words made Chen Mobai nod lightly. It was better to settle this matter sooner rather than later, as delaying could lead to complications.

Particularly as Master Chengxuan was about to go into seclusion.

“Take me to the fifth-rank Vermillion Fruit Tree, and I will explain what you need to pay attention to…”

Duanmu Longrong spoke to Qin Beichen, who immediately came over respectfully, supporting her trembling form.

After the two left, only three people remained in the dean’s office.

But soon there was another.

A virtual silhouette projected from the Soulful Mirror emerged; it was Wang Shuye, the highest-ranking person in the Dance Tool Dao Academy within the Immortal Gate.

“Ah, did senior sister still fail?”

Wang Shuye was still wondering why Master Chengxuan had summoned his spirit to the meeting. Upon hearing the news, his face turned gloomy.

After Duanmu Longrong, it would be his turn.

Compared to Duanmu Longrong, he only had one Infant-Feeding Elixir, and the chances of success were even more remote.

“I’m going into seclusion to comprehend a higher realm. If there’s any major issue in the academy in the future, the three of you should discuss and resolve it.”

With this declaration from Master Chengxuan, Chen Mobai suddenly realized.

He had indeed become one of the three highest-ranked Golden Cores in the Dance Tool Dao Academy, right after the Nascent Souls.

“Dean, I’m still too young…”

“Just consider it helping me.”

Before Chen Mobai could finish his modest words, Master Chengxuan’s statement made him hold back, and he eventually nodded, happily accepting his current status.

Exiting from building one, Chen Mobai felt his heart pounding fiercely and let out a long sigh.

Although he was already the leader of one sect in the Eastern Wilderness, suddenly being elevated to such a position in the Immortal Gate still put a tremendous pressure on him.

“Eh, uncle, what are you doing here?”
