Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1585 - 839: Founding the Sect
Previously on Cultivation is just so scientific!...
Li Shiming relocated the Book Collection Pavilion and the Treasure Pavilion to the ’North Shu Main Peak’ and linked them into the formation.
These two pavilions possess basic artifact spirits, and once this formation was set up, the artifact spirits from the original seven sects’ arrays got combined into a single entity, creating a more advanced wise artifact spirit.
The joint efforts of these three artifact spirits established the governing system for the Beishu Sect.
Within the Book Collection Pavilion, he stored away items unsuitable for sharing, while keeping the others accessible. For the Treasure Pavilion, he included certain treasures that he had previously dismissed as insignificant.
Atop the ’North Shu Main Peak’, inside the recently constructed magnificent hall, the initial senior gathering of the Beishu Sect kicked off.
Apart from the reclusive Nascent Soul Cultivators, all other Nascent Soul experts plus the leaders of the seven primary branches were present at this assembly.
Every cultivator gathered in this place remained stunned for the time being.
They believed that a massive sect born from uniting seven factions would require a lengthy adjustment phase to fully integrate.
Yet, none of them anticipated that merely half a day following the descent of the Yin Yang Sect’s mountain gate, a brand-new formation—vastly superior in power to the previous sect arrays—would be fully operational.
Even greater astonishment hit them as Li Shiming called this assembly right after finishing the new formation.
While traveling to the venue, they sensed the incredibly fluid Spiritual Energy circulating within the formation and detected its pulsing strength, enabling them to assess its might.
Moreover, as soon as they stepped onto the ’North Shu Main Peak’, they realized the Spiritual Energy density here surpassed their wildest expectations.
Li Shiming had embedded a Great Cultivator Spirit Vein inside the ’North Shu Main Peak’, accounting for the abundant Spiritual Energy in this area.
He expended tremendous energy to craft an enormous and intricate formation, which served not just to safeguard the Beishu Sect’s mountain gate but, above all, to enclose the ’North Shu Main Peak’.
To embed a Great Cultivator Spirit Vein in the resource-scarce Beishu Continent, simply inserting it outright would cause the vein to rapidly deplete its Spiritual Energy from insufficient earthly sustenance, eventually dropping to a Nascent Soul Mid-stage level.
Drawing on the mountain gates of the former seven sects and numerous formation foundations, the Beishu Sect’s array constructed this setup, compelling an upgrade to the terrestrial quality of the ’North Shu Main Peak’ and severing its ties to the Beishu Continent, thus forging a distinct self-contained realm.
For Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators, practicing on the ’North Shu Main Peak’ boosts efficiency by no less than fifty percent compared to their personal abodes.
Whether Nascent Soul or Golden Core cultivators, those assembled here pondered ways to gain access for cultivation on this peak.
"From now on, the Beishu Sect will distribute tasks via the seven branches, granting suitable contribution points according to the task’s challenge level. These points allow exchanges for assorted resources, treasures, scriptures, and more from the Book Collection Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion.
Cultivators from other branches may take on tasks posted by any of the seven branches.
Contribution points also permit trading for cultivation periods on the ’North Shu Main Peak’. As you’ve likely sensed, this peak’s Spiritual Energy exceeds that of any spot in the Beishu Continent. The source is the Spiritual Vein I retrieved from beyond the continent. Since the Spiritual Vein requires care, I urge all to avoid excessive draining!" Li Shiming declared steadily.
Similar to his earlier deployment of the Great Cultivator Spirit Vein via the Spirit-locking Plate, which drained its core essence; yet, for solo use, even that drain allowed prolonged utilization.
However, in a sect setting, such usage would ruin the Great Cultivator Spirit Vein’s essence in under a year.
The correct approach for a Spiritual Vein involves integrating it into the ground for land-based nourishment, with controlled usage limits to sustain it over the long haul.
Li Shiming had no means to acquire another Great Cultivator Spirit Vein; his warning aimed to deter the sect’s senior members from deliberately overconsuming the ’North Shu Main Peak’s Spiritual Energy assets.
He wouldn’t remain in the Beishu Sect indefinitely. Despite the protective Beishu Sect formation and oversight from the Book Collection Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion’s artifact spirits, human oversight remains essential for the sect; exploiting gaps proves all too simple.
"Senior, could you tell us what exactly lies within the Book Collection Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion?" Patriarch Ge inquired with keen interest.
This ’North Shu Main Peak’ had been freshly transported here, starting as a plain ordinary mountain, lacking Spiritual Veins or any special traits.
Though they glimpsed the Book Collection Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion on Yin Shilan’s peak, opportunities for detailed inspection never arose.
"Feel free to explore them once the meeting ends, but acquiring Spiritual Objects from them demands contribution points!" Li Shiming replied with a faint grin.
"Senior, the Beishu Sect lacks a designated Sect Master yet!" pointed out another Nascent Soul Ancestor.
"Regarding the Beishu Sect’s Sect Master role, the leaders of the seven branches will rotate the duty, each holding it for one hundred years!" Li Shiming announced, having pondered this beforehand, and he smiled.
Within the cultivation realm, the Sect Master title holds little allure; most experts shy away from deep involvement in sect matters as it hinders their personal progress.
Naturally, some power-hungry cultivators exist, yet a Sect Master’s authority remains limited; the role mainly acts as a coordinator, balancing ties among branches, between cultivators, and with external forces.
"You all handle the remaining specifics through discussion; I won’t join in further!" Li Shiming stated firmly, cutting off any additional queries from the cultivators.
