Chapter 594: Feng Shui, and a place for the Sect.

Chapter 594: Feng Shui, and a place for the Sect.

About a year and a half had passed since Yasenia arrived on the Distancia Continent. Her power had grown steadily, and they were already considered a second-ranked power.

Moreover, their value was high enough that first-ranked powers had constant interactions with them. The reason? Yasenia's clan's ability to produce high-level items.

There were many ongoing wars on the continent. After all, a cultivation world was never peaceful as long as it wasn't dominated by one power.

Even then, there would be conflicts.

Discoveries of new Spirit Stone mines, high-level treasures, abandoned ruins, tombs of a previous high-level cultivator, and valuable beasts. Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

In a cultivation world, things like these could appear suddenly and attract all powers. Not to mention essential spots like Secret Realms, areas with exotic environments where scarce resources grew, etc.

Besides that, there was always the fight between powers that tried to place a semblance of rules and the group that did as they liked and prioritized power.

Until now, Yasenia has only had dealings with five of the nine "Nine Sects" because the other four were not exactly friendly. They were the [Nine Devil Puppet Sect], [Nine Silent Fang Sect], [Nine Grudge Poison Sect], and [Nine Peach Blossom Sect].

The Devil Puppet sect used corpses to create puppets, the Silent Fang sect was an assassin group that worked on money, the Grudge Poison sect experimented with plagues and used other cultivators to develop a few of their poisons, and the Peach Blossom sect was a demonic dual cultivation sect.

Hence, Yasenia had been avoiding them.

Moreover, because of the threat of being targeted by these powers, Yasenia had used about fifty million Parus to buy enough materials to create her definitive headquarters in this continent.

After studying the map given to them by Tengliu, they decided on a place in the same area as Dolgor City. The City where the next Secret Realm was about to open.

Looking at the large and detailed map, there were a few places that were not explored.

Tatyana had been exploring those parts and found an extensive mountain basin surrounded by very tall mountains, which acted as a natural defense, a single valley as an entrance, and with little to no traces of cultivators.

Right now, Yasenia and the girls were flying toward that place, leaving the Astral Sky Clan in the hands of Ghana and Drasha. They were the top two administrators besides Yasenia's family.

Speaking of Ghana, her gains due to the bloodline increase and other benefits they've given them via the Astral Sky Shop were monumental, and she was probably going to break into the Epoch Core realm soon.

At this point in time, our girls were in the fourth and fifth levels of the Unification Realm.

Tatyana, Mirrory, and Valeria understood that establishing a sect requires a place with a good environment and Feng Shui.

The term Feng Shui refers to the place's quality, feel, and energy fluctuations. Some places would give good luck to powers built on them, and others would do the opposite. Some areas even affected cultivators mentally in one way or another.

Cultivators connected with Heaven and Earth while breathing the energy of the world. Hence, a place with good Feng Shui was essential.

To calculate these things, there was a need for knowledge of formations, geographic locations, and natural energy arrays, among many other things.

It was a branch of professions that became important much later. Hence, Yasenia and the girls had no idea about it.

Moreover, it was extremely complex and challenging to learn.

Also, some cultivators actually didn't believe in the term Feng Shui because it is invisible to the naked eye, so those who practiced it were either considered very valuable or complete frauds.

Hence, there is a lack of people with knowledge about it.

Valeria was a Nature Spirit born from Heaven and Earth, so she had an innate knowledge about this. The same went for Mirrory.

Tatyana, on the other side, had learned about it primarily by chance.

Therefore, this place that attracted the attention of the three seniors had to be remarkable.

As Yasenia's large dragon wings moved the air and flew at a very high speed, they saw a large mountain chain in the distance that surrounded something.

Yasenia asked as she flew nearby. "Mom, there is an entrance, right? If there is, protecting this place will become extremely easy with the mountains as natural protection."

Tatyana sat on Yasenia's head and answered with a nod. "There is a valley between the mountains on the East side. Listen to my directions while flying to avoid the dangerous beasts."

Angel blinked and asked. "Mirrory, if there are dangerous beasts, isn't it an inconvenience?"

Mirrory shook her head. "On the contrary, it makes it better. We just need to create a safe transporting route, and Nature will be our defenders against any army that tries to come, leaving us to worry only about high-level seniors."

Valeria added. "Moreover, we can divide the forest and mountains into areas for our disciples to explore and hone themselves. Making tests, creating missions, and many more indispensable things like plants that can only grow naturally will also be abundant. In short, we would place our sect in the middle of a treasure trove that defends itself."

Angel and the others nodded, impressed.

Yasenia saw the crack between two massive mountains and asked. "Is it there?"

Tatyana nodded. "Yes. Be careful, okay, dear? We've investigated the area, but we still don't know if there is something there that can hurt us."

Yasenia nodded and dove down. To keep everyone together, she was the only one who transformed and carried them.

Sierra muttered. "This reminds me of my hometown."

Yasenia and the rest blinked. "Transcendence what?"

Tatyana answered. "When you are qualified enough, they will become Transcendence Realm tools."

Yasenia was stunned. "Oh... So, I currently have nine Transcendence items, but they are all sealed?"

Tatyana nodded. "That's right. Since you haven't unlocked them, your profession understanding must still be low. They only unlock when you become skillful enough."

Tatyana suddenly looked toward a small rocky hill in the distance. "Hm? There is a Spiritual Mine there. From the energy signatures, it should be quite large."

Valeria nodded. "Well, little Yasenia. Say goodbye to your lack of money. You have officially become one of the richest of this continent."

Mirrory commented. "Well, with how energies moved in this place. I expected nothing less. There should be many more hidden treasures throughout the basin."

Angel blinked her large eyes with curiosity. "Mommy Tatyana, how do these Spiritual Mines work?"

Tatyana explained. "They are caves that grow the Spirit crystal used on this planet as currency. Spirit Crystals can be used as money or as energy stones to increase cultivation or, as you should know, as energy batteries for formations. The increase is meager for people at our level unless we use large amounts. However, since these caves are naturally formed, they give a constant supply as long as we don't break the natural array inside them."

Andrea knew about this and added. "The mine should be able to regenerate as long as we conserve those formations, right?"

They all flew in that direction and arrived swiftly. Tatyana answered. "Yes. If you want to become a superpower of a place, you need a stable income from the currency used there. The higher the concentration, the color of the crystal changes. That's why a Purple Crystal of Sky Continent costs as much as ten thousand Flawless Parus from here. Back at home, Flawless Parus are called mid-grade spirit stones."

Evelyn asked. "How many Purple Crystal mines do you have in the Sky Continent, Tatyana?"

Tatyana muttered. "I think we have one thousand three hundred and seven low-level ones, two hundred and six mid-level ones, fifty-three high-level ones, and two top-level ones."

Tatyana added. "By the way, top-level mines are the biggest type discovered in the Sky Continent."

Yasenia blinked. "And you didn't give me a single Purple Crystal when I left home?"

Tatyana smiled. "I wanted you to fend for yourself."

The other girls saw the speechlessness in Yasenia's dragon face and laughed.

Yasenia asked. "Should we land there to inspect the mine?"

Tatyana nodded. "Sure, why not."

Author: A very nice place to place the sect found!... Or did they?

Yasenia: ... I don't like how that sounds.

Author: Hehe. Either way, I summon you!

WPOmega: Hello, one more time!

Kali: Haha, a regular.

WPOmega: Evelyn, I have a very serious question for you.

Evelyn: Oh? I'm listening.

WPOmega: Is there a specific way you prefer to be hit with Yesenia's non-sexual tail slaps, you know, the ones that appear from the void and send you flying? Seeing as we both know you like them, I figured I'd ask if you had a preference, like maybe a full body smack that lets your whole body feel it before you fly, or just the tip so quick you only notice it once it's already made you ascend?

Andrea: T-That's not a serious question!

Evelyn: Andrea, what would you know!? It's the most serious question I've been asked in my entire life!

Andrea: ...

Evelyn: Well, you see. The tail slaps are not best about how they land but about the process they make me go through. For example, will they make me spin in place? Will she send me flying like a cannonball? Will I fly upward? The process is what is essential as it gives the tail slap meaning.

Evelyn: Sages once said a journey begins with a single step, and a thousand steps teach more than reading a thousand letters. The tail slap is the first step, and the journey happens afterward. Hence, I can only learn during the process because a first step doesn't determine the trajectory of my journey!

The rest: ...

Author: ...

WPOmega: That was... Beautiful.

Yasenia: Please, Author. End this Celestial Theater. What happens next is not something people will want to see.

Author: O-Okay. Goodbye, little lurkers!

Evelyn: W-Wait, Yasenia, we can talk-.
