I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2982: Chapter 1397:

As an Ancient Sacred Land, the entrance threshold for the Dao Morale Sect is extremely high. Besides Heavenly Spiritual Root and Different Spiritual Root, even True Spirit Root requires assessment of character, ethics, and even fate to be admitted.

Due to the Five Elements Sect, the population of the East Continent has exploded, leading to the Dao Morale Sect recruiting more disciples in recent years than ever since its founding.

However, even so, the total number of disciples from top to bottom is only one percent of the Five Elements Sect.

After all, the Five Elements Sect attracts from the entire East Continent and even overseas, whereas the Dao Morale Sect’s influence is limited to the East Land, barely comparable to the Five Elements Sect.

In a few generations, it’s estimated that the East Land’s influence will be overshadowed by the Five Elements Sect.

Currently, in terms of Nascent Soul cultivator numbers, the Dao Morale Sect still surpasses the Five Elements Sect.

But below the Nascent Soul level, it has already been thoroughly crushed.

If this trend continues, Five Elements Sect surpassing the Dao Morale Sect in Nascent Soul cultivators is only a matter of time.

Therefore, Xuande thought about making changes, lowering the Dao Morale Sect’s entrance threshold. After all, tens of thousands of students graduate each year, but getting into the Five Elements Sect is like crossing a single-log bridge.

The cultivators who are eliminated are not incompetent; it’s just that others are more outstanding or have better backgrounds.

If the Dao Morale Sect is willing to let go of its pride, these people would certainly want to join the Sacred Land.

It’s just that previously, Dustless and Shenxi felt picking up rejects from the Five Elements Sect would damage the Dao Morale Sect’s reputation, causing other Sacred Lands from the Five Continents and Four Seas to mock them as scavengers. So, although it was never explicitly stated, anyone eliminated by the Five Elements Sect was not admitted.

This led the Dao Morale Sect in recent major openings of its mountain gates to recruit disciples mainly from those who did not think themselves worthy enough and did not take the Five Elements Sect’s entrance exam, apart from the Heavenly Spiritual Root and Different Spiritual Root.

This has resulted in a decline in the Dao Morale Sect’s generations.

After Xuande understood this and coupled with the current situation where Dustless had passed away, he thought of lowering the posture.

Let them say we are scavenging; at least we can bring outstanding disciples into our fold.

At least this ensures the quality of the Dao Morale Sect’s disciples. By persisting through generations, maybe one day when the Five Elements Sect declines, they can rise again.

"The Sect Master Brother probably won’t agree."

Qi Jiannu did not hold hopes for Xuande, as Shenxi’s character remained somewhat rigid and face-conscious.

"Then I’ll do it after I become the Sect Master."

Xuande made up his mind, knowing that if the Dao Morale Sect clings to old habits, they’ll be eliminated by the current East Continent trend. He had chatted with Qi Yingyu during mourning, learning that the Nine Heavens Morality Sect chooses disciples from each Scholarly Mansion’s outstanding graduates filtered by the Five Elements Sect.

Although those outstanding graduates are screened by the Five Elements Sect once, they are still much more outstanding compared to those Nine Heavens Morality Sect finds on their own.

Qi Yingyu brought a very young Golden Core cultivator to see the Dao Morale Sect’s disciples, not yet sixty, and an outstanding graduate from the Longevity Academy.

Just that he couldn’t compete against several local candidates in his year, so he was screened out. But his talent and strength were almost no less than Different Spiritual Root.

Forming the Core within sixty years in the Dao Morale Sect qualifies one to compete directly for the Taoist Child Saintess.

Due to the relationship between Ye Qing and Chen Mobai, all graduates from the Five Elements Sect’s Scholarly Mansion, besides marking the Five Elements Sect as their first choice, have Nine Heavens Morality Sect as their second.

Even Taixu Piaomiao Palace, thanks to the Five Elements Sect’s aid, includes several classes on Void Sensing Power in their yearly curriculum. Those who exhibit Void Talent get directly recommended to Taixu Piaomiao Palace. This tripled the disciples of Taixu Piaomiao Palace within the East Continent in the past century.

Zhang Pankong never knew so many people in the East Continent had talent for the Void.

This even earned praise from the Taixu Immortal, who advised Dan Miaosu to study the Five Elements Sect’s education system and promote it in Central State and other Three Continents.

If the Dao Morale Sect doesn’t follow suit and remains hung up on reputation, they’re likely to fall out of the Sacred Land ranks once their older cultivators pass away.

"If a brother wishes to learn the Five Elements Sect system and reform the sect, I support it."

Qi Jiannu personally witnessed the revolutionary changes in the Five Elements Sect and felt that the systems devised by Chen Mobai represented the most advanced in the East Continent.

"Junior Sister, with your support, I am no longer indecisive."

Xuande was very pleased to know he was not alone in reforming the sect.

At this moment, Chen Mobai called them over, and the brother and sister immediately flew over.

"The Floating Dao Platform is now vacant, and Ming’er will tune the sixth rank spiritual energy from the Mysterious Sea within three days. Which of you plans to go up for Divinity Transformation first?"

Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s words, Xuande did not hesitate and stepped forward.

Seeking stability in his life, and with Dustless having passed away, although the number of sect disciples is larger, their strength is still at the bottom among Sacred Lands. He felt he must break through to lead the Dao Morale Sect to greatness again.

"Oh, Xuande Brother’s mind seems different now."

Chen Mobai instantly noticed a change in Xuande.

Dustless’s death seemed to have made him more resolute.

"If I fail to break through, the sect will be handed to Junior Sister."

Xuande stepped onto the Floating Dao Platform and said one last thing to Qi Jiannu.

"Here is a Talisman to activate the Dusk Drum. Keep it safe, and there are other precautions. Ming’er will guide you through them."

Chen Mobai drew a Void Talisman, condensing a talisman for Xuande.

Breaking through to Divinity Transformation requires unleashing the Dusk Drum’s rank-five power. Besides Zhuo Ming driving the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, only a talisman personally created by Chen Mobai works.

"Thank you, and thanks to Nephew Zhuo for the trouble."

After thanking, Xuande flew up with Zhuo Ming to the Floating Dao Platform.

"Congratulations on gaining another Deity Transformation True Monarch."

Chen Mobai watched Xuande’s figure disappear and said to Qi Jiannu with a smile, making her slightly delighted.

As the Great Sage and Good Teacher, Chen Mobai had never been mistaken in judgment.

When he claimed Xuande could achieve Divinity Transformation, it was almost a sure thing.

"May I ask Blue Emperor if I can successfully transform?"

Qi Jiannu couldn’t help but ask for reassurance.

"Madam has returned."

Chen Mobai didn’t answer but turned to look at the foot of North Abyss Mountain.

Qing Nu’s figure appeared before him.

After dealing with matters here, Chen Mobai returned to the Mysterious Sea Eye for further seclusion.

After cultivating Void, every insight with Turtle Treasure brought him significant gains.

Had it not been for Dustless’s death, he wouldn’t have ended seclusion and taken a step out.

Back from these events, Chen Mobai retrieved the Turtle Treasure, enveloping it with the Void Great Dao and meditating on it with his Divine Sense.

Gradually, he felt his Divine Sense becoming infinitely far-reaching.

Without being able to utilize the Void Sky Orbit Vision, he found himself capable of seeing the East Continent, Mysterious Sea, Desolate Sea, and so forth.

However, certain areas were shrouded in sixth rank power, making thorough observation impossible.

Still, this alone provided him with vast amounts of information.

During this process, a thought struck Chen Mobai, urging him to change his Divine Sense’s direction using Turtle Treasure to explore the Mysterious Sea Eye.

Initially, upon cultivating Void, he sensed an unusual force deep within the sea eye, something very familiar.

Yet he lacked enough cultivation at that time and didn’t dare linger, so he left promptly.
