Chapter 378 I Established a Sect in the Cultivation World (7)
"Sect Master, what do we do next?" Zhao Sizhe stepped forward and asked excitedly.
Zhou Jue's gaze swept across the vibrant valley, then looked at the hundred expectant faces before him.
"The construction of the sect is now in your hands."
She looked at Zhao Sizhe and said, "You will be in charge of overall coordination, while the General Affairs Office will be responsible for camp construction and logistical support. First, set up temporary accommodations that can accommodate everyone."
"Yes!" Zhao Sizhe straightened his back.
"Cheng Gan".
"exist!"
"Take the disciples of the Enforcement Hall and establish three lines of defense and a patrol system around the valley, with a focus on defending the entrance to the valley."
"Understood!" Cheng Gan replied crisply.
"Li Ming."
"Sect Master!" Li Ming and several alchemists immediately stepped forward, their faces still showing lingering excitement.
"The task of the Pill Hall is to explore the distribution of spiritual plants throughout the valley, find suitable locations to establish a medicinal garden, and, as soon as possible, begin to develop pills based on the existing spiritual plants."
"I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Li Ming's voice trembled.
Zhou Jue then looked at another group of people: "Weapon Refining Hall, your task is to study those demonic beasts and spirit stone materials. Use local materials first. I need you to produce finished storage equipment as soon as possible, even if it is only the lowest grade."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
“These are Void Stones, which possess spatial properties.” Zhou Jue took out some Void Stones that he had previously mined in Japan.
Back on Earth, Zhou Jue left some for the country as well. There, they used technology to develop 'space buttons,' while here they used cultivation and weapon crafting to develop space props.
After arranging all this, Zhou Jue said, "I will go and delineate the sect's territory and set up a protective formation for the mountain."
After she finished speaking, she turned to leave.
"Sect Master!" Cheng Gan called out to her, "This place is dangerous. I'll take a team and follow you."
Before Zhou Jue could speak, the white tiger Jingbai beside her let out a low whimper, nuzzled Zhou Jue with its massive head, and sent a thought directly into Zhou Jue's mind.
“Master, I’ll go with you.”
“I know this place well.”
Zhou Jue glanced at Jing Bai, who was eager to try, and then at Cheng Gan, who looked worried.
"No need, you can stay and build up the sect, that's enough."
She patted Jingbai's head reassuringly.
"Jingbai, are you sure there aren't any other Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts around here?"
"Don't worry, Master," Jingbai thought with a hint of pride, "Within this thousand-mile radius, besides me, there's only that stinky snake to the west and that silly bird to the east. The three of us keep to ourselves, so they won't come over."
"The rest are small things; they can handle them."
Zhou Jue sensed the confidence emanating from it and no longer hesitated. He looked at Cheng Gan and said, "I will leave a wisp of divine sense in the valley. I will be able to detect any unusual activity immediately."
"You may begin."
As soon as she finished speaking, she leaped into the air and gently landed on Jingbai's broad back.
Jingbai let out a joyful low roar, its four hooves whipping up the wind as it transformed into a white streak of light, instantly disappearing into the end of the valley.
The remaining hundred-person team, after a brief moment of surprise, quickly sprang into action.
"You all heard that! The sect leader has entrusted us with all his assets! Everyone, get your spirits up!" Zhao Sizhe began to direct like a chief engineer.
"Construction team, follow me! Let's plan out the living area and training area first! We'll use materials from where we are!"
"Formation team! Set up basic maze formations and warning arrays within the perimeter marked by Hall Master Cheng!"
Cheng Gan also began to call out to his men: "Enforcement Hall, follow me."
Li Ming and his people from the Pill Hall were like a group of explorers who had discovered a treasure, practically crawling on the ground, searching inch by inch for suitable soil.
"This place has loose soil and moist spiritual energy, making it suitable for planting water-attribute spiritual herbs!"
"No, no, look over there, the sunlight is brighter, and the yang-attribute spiritual energy is more concentrated. The fire edelweiss must be planted there!"
"Stop arguing! Let's test the soil's pH level first! Let the data speak for itself!"
At the weapon refining hall, they even set up a portable high-temperature furnace brought from Earth.
"Old Wang, bring me that giant ape's leg bone! I'll try to melt it down and mix it into the flying sword!"
"A leopard's tendon! Has anyone seen that leopard's tendon? My god, the resilience, the spiritual energy conductivity! It's absolutely perfect for making bowstrings and whips!"
“I think that in addition to the storage equipment that the sect leader mentioned, we also need to refine some more pill cauldrons for the Pill Hall. We also need cauldrons for some of our weapon refining. We can’t come to the cultivation world and still use our pots and pans, can we? We have to adapt to local customs!”
The entire valley has been completely transformed into a massive, bustling construction site.
The sounds of chiseling rocks, debates and discussions, and the occasional soft explosions from magical attacks rose and fell in waves.
Everyone is contributing to this home called "Xuantian Sect" in their own way.
...
On the other side, Zhou Jue, riding on Jing Bai, had already run out of the valley.
"Master, where are we going?" Jingbai's voice rang in Zhou Jue's mind.
"I need to run around this spiritual vein and check out the surrounding terrain."
Zhou Jue's divine sense had already spread out, imprinting all the mountains, rivers, and spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles into his mind.
"What's the deal with the stinky snake and the stupid bird you mentioned earlier?" Zhou Jue asked while observing.
“They are my two neighbors, just like me, both at the seventh level.” Jing Bai’s thoughts were filled with obvious disdain.
"Three hundred miles to the west, in the Blackwater Pool, lives a Xuan Water Demon Python. Five hundred miles to the east, on the Broken Cloud Cliff, lives a Three-Eyed Divine Falcon. The three of us are probably the strongest in this area. Beyond that, I don't know."
“Normally we ignore each other, but occasionally some ignorant human cultivators barge in, and whoever gets caught is just unlucky.”
Zhou Jue understood; it seemed that a delicate balance of power had formed in the central region of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
The three seventh-tier demons each occupied a piece of spiritual land and did not invade each other's territory. Perhaps there are other seventh-tier demon beasts to the west of the demon python.
Are there many human cultivators who come here?
"Not many," Jing Bai replied quickly. "Those who dared to venture deep into this place weren't weak cultivators; at least late-stage Golden Core cultivators. But they were all incredibly foolish, thinking they could defeat me, and in the end, they all became my snacks."
Zhou Jue listened, silently analyzing the situation in his mind.
This shows that the Ten Thousand Mountains are a testing ground full of both opportunities and dangers for cultivators from the outside world.
She is currently occupying a high-level resource point in the central part of the training ground.
It is foreseeable that future conflicts with cultivators from outside the region are inevitable.
Just then, a dark figure darted out from the dense forest below. Sensing the terrifying pressure from Jing Bai in the air, it screamed in fright and turned to burrow into the ground.
Jing Bai scoffed dismissively, "Little thing."
Zhou Jue ignored her and focused her gaze on the twelve undulating mountain peaks in the distance.
These twelve mountain peaks, like stars surrounding the moon, encircle the central spiritual valley, subtly forming a natural formation.
"This is it." She patted Jingbai's neck.
Jingbai obediently slowed down and stopped. Zhou Jue jumped off its back, and with a flick of his wrist, array flags shimmering with spiritual light appeared in his hand.
She did not immediately set up the formation, but closed her eyes and slowly merged her consciousness with the world around her.
The flow of the wind, the trajectory of spiritual energy, the direction of the mountains...
A moment later, she opened her eyes, and a battle flag flew from her hand, transforming into a streak of light that precisely disappeared into a giant rock on the mountaintop.
After doing all this, she leaped back onto the tiger's back.
"Let's go to the next mountain."
A man and a tiger traverse between twelve mountain peaks.
Wherever he went, Zhou Jue would either set up a battle flag or carve a rune.
As the last flag was lowered, an invisible connection seemed to form between the twelve mountain peaks.
Standing atop the last mountain peak, Zhou Jue looked down upon the territory that was about to be incorporated into the Xuantian Sect's domain, and a surge of pride rose within him.
This will be their foundation in this world.
The foundation of the mountain-protecting formation has been laid. All that is needed is to set up the main formation eye at the core of the spiritual vein in the valley after returning, and it will be fully activated.
Having completed her task, she scanned the valley with her divine sense and saw the bustling construction scene, nodding in satisfaction.
Just as she was about to return, a thought suddenly popped into her mind without warning.
Her consciousness instantly sank into the space of the Starry Secret Box.
Inside the space, the ancient tree, which had grown into a towering giant, was stretching out its branches and leaves, and a rich life force permeated the surroundings.
Under the ancient tree, the sea beast was dozing on the beach, occasionally flicking its tail.
Zhou Jue's thoughts materialized into a human figure that appeared before them.
'Two seniors.'
The leaves of the old tree rustled softly even without wind: "What's wrong, Xiaojue?"
The Listening Sea Beast also opened its pure eyes and looked at Zhou Jue curiously.
"Senior, I have now arrived in a new world." Zhou Jue said with a slight smile.
"The spiritual energy here is abundant."
"Seniors, would you be interested in coming out and taking a look?"
