Chapter 859: Chapter 482: Not Familiar Chapter 859: Chapter 482: Not Familiar Chen Mobai really didn’t know.
He knew of the two Huashen Ancestors, the three Hall Masters, and the fourteen Nascent Soul Superiors of the Immortal Gate, but apart from those he had met personally, he hadn’t specifically sought to learn about the rest of the Golden Core Masters.
Moreover, it had been three to four hundred years since Yu Huiping was accepted as a disciple by Ancestor Baiguang, a time when his grandfather’s grandfather hadn’t even been born.
But now that he knew, it wasn’t too late.
After confirming from Zhongli Tianyu that Xiao Hei really was from Wangxian Peak, Chen Mobai actually felt at ease.
With a contemporary Divinity Transformation figure behind him, at least his life wasn’t in danger.
Thinking this, he let out a slight sigh of relief.
In the following days, he had wanted to visit Elder Qingping at the Welcoming Immortals Hotel.
Unfortunately, he learned from the Golden Core Master Zhongli Yue that though Elder Qingping had been arranged to stay there, he had in fact already gone to the Leading Star Ancestor’s Gathering Immortals Peak to break through his realm by borrowing the Spirit Vein Qi of the Six Grade Spirit Vein.
Considering this, Chen Mobai did not presume to visit hastily, and after disturbing Zhongli Tianyu for a couple of days, he felt it was somewhat improper to continue living at someone else’s place and thus decided to take his leave.
“I have plenty of empty rooms here; you could stay for a year and a half without any issues,”
Thinking Chen Mobai was just being polite, Zhongli Tianyu took the initiative to speak.
“A few friends also have a bit of trouble with Wangwu Cave Heaven, and it’s not convenient to enter and exit your place. I’d better find a hotel outside,”
With that said, Zhongli Tianyu didn’t insist on keeping him any longer.
“Little Chen, feel free to visit more often when you have time,”
At the farewell, the Golden Core Master Zhongli Yue spoke very politely, and Chen Mobai nodded with a smile.
As he was leaving the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains, Chen Mobai hesitated over whether to go to Wangxian Peak to see Xiao Hei.
But after the sound of the Zhong Ming, he found himself in a more rational and calm state, feeling that he and the little girl had merely had a brief encounter and it would be best not to disturb her too much.
Nevertheless, as Chen Mobai took his last steps away from the place, he couldn’t help but turn around for one last look at the direction of Wangxian Peak.
He had always thought little kids were troublesome, but he hadn’t expected a girl to be quite adorable.
With this in mind, Chen Mobai returned to the office of Dance Tool Dao Academy in Wangwu Cave Heaven.
He gathered with familiar people like Zuo Qiushi and Bian Jingchun, discussing some of his own knowledge and experience related to opening the Golden Core Domain.
But in reality, at their stage, they had basically learned about the steps needed through various channels: sensing the void, grasping the void, condensing the void…
In the end, whether one could successfully create the domain or not still depended on individual quality.
“Our chances don’t seem very good, but Junior Brother Chen should have no problem, right?”
As everyone discussed, Zuo Qiushi spoke up, as Chen Mobai’s astonishing talent was known to all those present.
“There’s no certainty in this. Even when Ancestor Baiguang was at the Completion of Foundation Establishment, didn’t he also fail?”
The one speaking was Bian Jingchun, who sincerely had Chen Mobai’s interests at heart.
Chen Mobai was now widely recognized as having the Qualification of Deification. If he failed to open the Golden Core Domain, those from other Daoist Academies who hadn’t found an opportunity yet would probably start slandering and mocking him openly on the internet.
“Senior Sister Bian is right,”
After hearing Bian Jingchun’s words, Zuo Qiushi also felt his own comments were somewhat inappropriate, realizing they, as his own people, shouldn’t be adding fuel to the fire.
“What’s going on?”
Chen Mobai was a bit confused. He had just stayed in the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains for two days. What had happened outside? Was it about him?
“The news of the Portal’s opening has spread throughout the entire Immortal Gate, becoming the top trend recently, even making it onto a television show that listed the most likely successful seed players, inviting the public to vote. In this, Junior Brother Chen, you’re ranked first with seventy-three percent of the votes,”
Sun Daoji spoke, turned on the television, and switched to the hottest variety channel of the Immortal Gate, where a host and several guests from various industries were discussing which among the cultivators at the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment was the most likely to open the Golden Core Domain.
“Isn’t that to be expected?”
Chen Mobai, looking at himself ranked first on the screen, couldn’t help but nod and say.
It was like back at Jumang Academy, when Ding Chundzhi put him at the top of the Foundation List.
Combining his past achievements, strength, talent, and other aspects, he was truly the undisputed number one Foundation Establishment cultivator of the current time.
“Junior Brother Chen, falling from a high pedestal can be dreadful. This variety show’s host, Nie Wenzhen, is from Pure Yang Academy, and he is setting you up,”
Bian Jingchun said, and Chen Mobai had also realized this.
On the show, the host Nie Wenzhen, proclaiming himself as Chen Mobai’s number one fan, lavished praise upon him. If any of the guests expressed even a hint of doubt about Chen Mobai’s confidence in opening the Golden Core Domain, Nie would not hesitate to lash out.
[Who are you to judge the Qualification of Deification?]
[Do you understand the weight of being the number one Foundation Establishment cultivator?]
[Chen Mobai is undefeated among all peers in all Daoist Academies, you are all just jealous!]
His behavior truly exemplified the saying that one fan is worth ten haters.
Clear-headed cultivators naturally wouldn’t care, but those with a more extreme personality, upon watching the show, would immediately be inspired by a reverse psychology.
