I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2103: Chapter 994:

Diao Xianlan finally gave Wen Buyue a customary glimmer of hope before turning into a beam of moonlight and leaving.

After returning to his Cave Dwelling in the Ruins, Wen Buyue had calmed the intense emotions surging in his heart. He crushed the skull of a Demonic beast wandering nearby and exhaled softly.

He had grown accustomed to this over the years.

In the Demon Path, unless it’s a Daoist Heart Oath, nothing can really be trusted.

However, Wen Buyue’s entire Cultivation Level is based on the Cultivation Technique of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, forcing him down a path he cannot change. If he still wishes to achieve Divinity Transformation in the future, he will have to work hard for Diao Xianlan.

Wen Buyue is aware of something secretive—that the founder of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, to ensure the preservation of the Secret Technique, will have every disciple who receives the Divinity Transformation Technique make a vow to share all their acquired knowledge of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect before death.

Now that Du Mengyun has died, Wen Buyue is the only viable candidate for the future of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect.

Therefore, whether Diao Xianlan achieves Divinity Transformation or grows old and dies, he will have his chance.

It is for this reason that Wen Buyue continues to endure.

“Master, there is a Message Talisman from East Li.”

At that moment, Wen Buyue’s disciple, Sun Baili, approached and handed a silvery white Talisman to him.

“Old bastard, how dare you deceive me like this!”

After reading it, Wen Buyue was infuriated, his sinister aura erupted, blowing the roof off this Cave Dwelling.

Sun Baili was caught off guard, directly knocked backward and slammed into the distant mountain wall, feeling many of his bones break as he coughed up gouts of blood.

[What kind of news could make my master lose his composure so entirely?]

Before losing consciousness, that single thought echoed in Sun Baili’s mind.

Wen Buyue had an unparalleled depth of scheming, always composed, even when confronted with major crises.

But today, he was completely shattered.

The Message Talisman was sent by Wen Buyue’s junior disciple, who had secured it while stationed at the East Li main branch of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, and it recorded a significant event.

Du Mengyun’s Soul Lantern is still burning.

Wen Buyue, cautious throughout his life, had relaxed somewhat after Du Mengyun’s death, believing that he alone could inherit the future of the Jade Mirror Demon Sect, fostering a desire to further develop the sect diligently.

His main inspiration was watching Chen Mobai as he expanded the Five Elements Sect from a small Eastern Wilderness faction to a Nascent Soul Major Faction dominating the Eastern Continent Frontier—a feeling akin to enjoyment from growth through Farming.

He thought he could achieve this too.

So after Du Mengyun’s death, he sent a message to the East Li main branch, asking his junior disciple to communicate with the other Elders inside the sect, particularly those mysterious transmission Elders, in case Diao Xianlan failed to achieve Divinity Transformation, he might need to learn the technique from them.

Wen Buyue believed these Elders would give him due respect.

After all, with Du Mengyun gone, only he could maintain the status or even strengthen the Jade Mirror Demon Sect’s current position.

However, while his junior disciple tried to win over the Elders at the main branch, he found the situation was entirely contrary to Wen Buyue’s expectations.

After conducting an investigation, he discovered that Du Mengyun’s Soul Lantern, enshrined at the main branch, was still burning.

This meant Du Mengyun was still alive!

To Wen Buyue’s understanding, this meant Diao Xianlan and Du Mengyun were collaborating to deceive him.

Their goal was to use him during the righteous-demonic war in East Wu and, once the situation was resolved, discard him completely.

Upon learning the truth, the previously suppressed rage in Wen Buyue’s heart finally exploded.

The sounds of bone cracking and flesh shattering followed one after another.

Wen Buyue went to a nearby valley, and personally tore apart the entire pack of gray wolves inside, venting all his pent-up resentment and anger.

With the last young gray wolf frozen and then crushed, Wen Buyue’s expression returned to calmness.

“Old one, you wish to achieve Divinity Transformation, let me see if you can…”

Wen Buyue looked towards the Eastern Wilderness, vengeance weaving a sinister plan in his heart.

…

Stormy Immortal City.

After receiving the allegiance of each major family in East Wu, Chen Mobai rightfully owned East Wu.

At this point, Chen Mobai felt a pang of regret.

If he had known earlier, he might have only ignited the Spirit Vein of the Ten Thousand Rivers Returning Sea Array, leaving the other half of the Dou Rate Demonic Refinement Array’s Spirit Vein. It would have been much easier to repair.

But this was merely a thought, as neither Chen Mobai nor Su Ziluo had experience in igniting a Spirit Vein using the Primordial Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder and thus weren’t aware of its full power. Furthermore, the opportunity only comes once; if the Green Sea Great King and others had escaped, they wouldn’t be fooled into entering the formation again.

Ultimately, the decision was made to ignite all Spirit Veins at once, ensuring that the million Demonic beasts in the Desolate Sea were exterminated before considering further actions.

Victorious first, governance later.

“Ming’er, you’re the only one who can help dissolve the Evil Power I’ve unleashed in East Wu.”

After merging East Wu, Chen Mobai began planning the subsequent governance. He called his beloved disciple over and pointed to the scarred East Wu Land on the map, speaking earnestly.

“Master, your orders are mine to follow!”

Zhuo Ming accepted the instruction without hesitation.
