To master the Dual-Phase Technique, the discipline must achieve the seventh layer of Qi cultivation for both phases.
If the “Longevity Spiritual Power” and “Red Flame Sword Jue” have both reached the eighth layer of Qi cultivation, invoking the Dual-phase Rotation could harness the power of the ninth layer in a short period.
Of course, it merely elevates minor realms. The bottleneck between Qi cultivation and Foundation Establishment cannot be overcome by this technique.
“Inject into me one of your spiritual energy.
Even though Liu Wenbo didn’t understand why, he obediently did as instructed.
Chen Mobai held up the Spirit-Testing Instruments he had hidden in his palm and inspected his disciple’s Spiritual Roots.
Liu Wenbo: [Gold 13, Wood 27, Water 28, Fire 22, Earth 10]
“How old are you this year?”
“I will turn thirty by year’s end.”
Liu Wenbo answered honestly. It’s indeed commendable that at his age, he could cultivate the “Longevity Spiritual Power” to the eighth layer of Qi cultivation while simultaneously practicing the Dual-Phase Technique.
“You have time to switch cultivation techniques. The “Red Flame Sword Jue” doesn’t suit you, but you can practice the Dual-Phase Technique that combines the cultivation techniques of water and wood. However, since this impacts your life, the decision must ultimately be yours.”
After Chen Mobai finished these words, he asked Liu Wenbo about his confusion in cultivating the “Longevity Spiritual Power”.
He discovered that, although he had reached the eighth layer of Qi cultivation in this technique, it was mostly due to forcefully using Spirit Stones and pills. His understanding of the essence of the cultivation technique was limited to a few spells suitable for magical duels.
Chen Mobai again asked Liu Wenbo to circulate his spiritual power. Although Chen Mobai didn’t use the Formless Mannequin to predict, his own experience and discernment helped him point out more than ten areas where Liu Wenbo could improve.
“Thank you for the guidance, Master.”
Liu Wenbo circulated the “Longevity Spiritual Power” again according to Chen Mobai’s tips, to find that both his speed and Spirit Qi refining efficiency had increased by half. This greatly surprised him, spurring deeper respect and more profound obeisance towards his newly consecrated teacher.

In the Tianhe Realm, the inheritance of knowledge and experience is highly valued. Only to direct disciples or close blood relatives is such candid guidance given.
This deed of Chen Mobai made their disciples feel that they were not just laborers, but real inheritors.
“Hmm, you can temporarily stop practicing the “Red Flame Sword Jue”, and raise the “Longevity Spiritual Power” to the ninth layer of Qi cultivation. Then, you can try competing for the position of a true disciple.
As for Liu Wenbo, E Yun and Yuan Chiye initially planned to nurture him to follow their faction as the successor of the True Discipleship. After all, it was indeed very quick for Chen Mobai, who had been confirmed as their symbol, to succeed in establishing his foundation just after being a True Disciple for half a year.
If Yuan Chiye also succeeds in his foundation building next, there would only be one other true disciple left in their faction from the Spirit Beast Department. That would be too few.
“Teacher, what about me? I am of average aptitude and don’t wish to cultivate the Dual-Phase Technique. I just hope to obtain a Foundation Building Pill in my lifetime.”
Zhuo Ming passed her spiritual power over and noticed Chen Mobai looking at it with a serious face. She thought her practiced spiritual power was too inferior and it displeased the teacher.
“When you tested for spiritual roots back in the Fang Market, you were a three spiritual root cultivator, right?”
Chen Mobai suddenly asked.
“Correct, I remember it clearly, there were three colors: green, black, and
yellow.”
Zhuo Ming would never forget the scene of testing her spiritual roots at the Southstream Market.
While her aptitude is not as peak as the teacher’s nearly two spiritual roots, she was extremely pleased with her ordinary three spiritual roots as a loose cultivator.
After hearing this, Chen Mobai looked at the results shown on the Spirit-Testing Instruments in his hands with a bizarre expression.
Zhuo Ming: [Gold 3, Wood 20, Water 21, Fire 9, Earth 471
The attribute points of her Earth Spiritual Root nearly filled half of the screen. To avoid measurement errors, Chen Mobai had Zhuo Ming transfer another ray of spiritual power to him.
However, the results were exactly the same. Perhaps there was a slight fluctuation in her emotions-the Gold attribute had reduced a little, and the Fire attribute had increased slightly.
Yet, the Earth 47 remained wholly unchanged.
This child is born for farming.
“Have you ever considered switching to Earth Attribute Cultivation
Techniques?”
“What?”
Zhuo Ming had been practicing her father’s “Classic of Materia Medica” since she was a child and switched to the same attribute “Longevity Spiritual Power” when she entered the sect. She believed that her constitution was suited for Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques.
But now Chen Mobai was telling her she should practice Earth Attribute Cultivation Techniques. This took her by surprise.
“Your Three Spiritual Roots aptitude is already above average, yet you have been stuck at the Rank-6 Qi Cultivation stage for four years, I believe it’s because your constitution is not suitable for the Longevity Spiritual Power cultivation technique.”
Chen Mobai was being completely honest, as for whether Zhuo Ming, this disciple, was willing to give up the wood attribute cultivation technique that she had practiced for nearly twenty years, it was something she had to decide for herself.
Just like Liu Wenbo, he again pointed out some things about Zhuo Ming’s Longevity Power Cultivation and found that although her realm is low, her foundation is quite steady.
Running through her spiritual power cycle, Chen Mobai found only five or six problems, which, although few, made Zhuo Ming’s Longevity Spiritual Power flow more smoothly, even offering traces of loosening the bottleneck of the Qi Cultivation layer that she had been unable to break through.
However, this only twisted Zhuo Ming’s thoughts further.
After Chen Mobai’s guidance, she felt that with just another year or so of cultivation, she could break through to the Rank-7 Qi Cultivation.
If she chose to switch to earth attribute cultivation techniques, due to her not having the same attribute spiritual power, it’s uncertain how many years would be delayed.
“Master, I…”
“I’m just giving a suggestion, just like with Wen Bo, this affects your entire life and requires you to make the decision.”
After instructing two disciples, Chen Mobai saw the originally rising sun was now directly overhead. It was midday.
He intended to comprehend the Longevity Spiritual Power cultivation technique for Foundation Establishment and Red Flame Sword Jue, so he waved his hand, releasing the two pondering disciples.
“Disciple takes his leave.”
The two immediately turned around to leave.
“Wait.”
But at this time, Chen Mobai suddenly remembered something and called to his two disciples.
“Master, any orders?”
“I’ll be waiting in our sect for the Divine Tree Secret Realm to open, and I happen to have two things at hand that need to be done. Can you two help me handle them?”
“Yes.”
Liu Wenbo and Zhuo Ming exchanged glances, nodded their heads in unison, seemingly quite happy.
A disciple is ready to lend a hand when needed.
In the Tianhe Realm, being given work by one’s master indicated that one was a highly regarded disciple.
“Before I joined the sect, I had a Water Mansion in Yun Country where some Spirit Plants are just about to mature. Can you help me harvest them?” Chen Mobai took out a piece of white paper and drew a simple map.
Anyway, the most valuable high-grade Spirit Stones in the Water Mansion have already been taken by him, and that Green Paulownia Seedling was being raised by him in Crimson Mountain.
The remaining Jade Bamboo was originally intended for sustainable development. But now that Chen Mobai’s cultivation level is higher, he felt it wasn’t worth his concern and decided to harvest everything instead.
“Wen Bo, I remember you’re in the Spirit Beasts Department, I need some
Rank-2 Mysterious Spirit Rabbit Fur for my Talisman Brush. Can you find out for me how many Spirit Stones it would cost or which elder I need to contact? Let me know when you have news.”
After assigning the two tasks, Chen Mobai finally got some peace.
He activated a Wooden House Talisman at the top of Xiao Nanshan and entered. Sitting on a cushion inside, he began reading the subsequent chapters of Longevity Spiritual Power that he had just received from the Book Pavilion. There are four stages, starting from the nth stage up to the 14th stage. These represent the early, middle, late, and final stages of foundation establishment respectively.
This last 14th stage, in addition to the perfection of foundation establishment, also contains the cultivation method from foundation establishment to core formation. Theoretically, this version of the Longevity Spiritual Power in Chen Mobai’s hands should allow him to reach core formation using the Dual-phase Rotation.
According to E Yun, this cultivation technique has twenty stages in total, which could theoretically allow cultivation to mid Nascent Soul Formation.
However, the highest cultivation level in the Divine Wood Sect was held by Elder Zhou, who had only cultivated to the 17th stage.
After reconciling with the Five Elements Sect, this elder had been in seclusion, trying to break through to the 18th stage of Gold Core Perfection and then attempting to transition to Nascent Soul Formation.
As he was already a Foundation Establishment elder, the Longevity Spiritual Power in Chen Mobai’s possession also has a matching cultivation spell.
What he was most interested in was the so-called Domain Expansion, the “Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation .
However, to cultivate this formation, a “tree seed” is required.
This Tree Seed is made by refining a Spirit Tree. The most complete system within the Divine Wood Sect begins with the Rank-1 Red-sun Spirit Tree, followed by the Rank-2 Qingyang Spirit Tree, and the Rank-3 Golden Sun Spirit Tree.
As for the Rank-4 Spirit Trees, there are only three Divine Trees throughout Giant Tree Ridge and neither of the two Gold Core elders could refine them..
