Chapter 594: Feng Shui, and a ce 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 n''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.


    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 ce a semnce 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 gues 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 ce in the same area as Dolgor City. The City where the next Secret Realm was about to open.


    Looking at therge and detailed map, there were a few ces 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 ce, leaving the Astral Sky n 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 ce with a good environment and Feng Shui.


    The term Feng Shui refers to the ce''s quality, feel, and energy fluctuations. Some ces 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 ce with good Feng Shui was essential.


    To calcte 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 muchter. Hence, Yasenia and the girls had no idea about it.


    Moreover, it was extremelyplex 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 orplete frauds.


    Hence, there is ack 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 ce that attracted the attention of the three seniors had to be remarkable.


    As Yasenia''srge dragon wings moved the air and flew at a very high speed, they saw arge 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 ce will be 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 toe, 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 nts that can only grow naturally will also be abundant. In short, we would ce 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."


    Evelyn chuckled. "There is one thing missing, right?"


    Sierraughed. "Lightning and snow? Well, it''s true that my ce was constantly engulfed in a snowstorm."


    Yasenia''s body slowly swept down, and the previously "tiny" valley became huge. It only looked tiny because the pair of mountains creating it were tens of kilometers tall.


    They all stood up and took out their weapons, just in case. Yasenia also activated her [Empyrean Dragon Authority] and bloodline to deter beasts.


    As she flew between the mountains, they could see the rocky hillsides that went up to the sky and many creatures scattering when they sensed Yasenia''s aura.


    Kali chuckled. "Having a high-leveled dragon with us works quite nice~."


    Tatyana nodded. "These beasts didn''t hold back and attacked when Valeria, Mirrory, and I walked here."


    Angel blinked and muttered. "Honestly, I didn''t know you could separate that much from me, Mirrory. How far is this from Koran City? At least it''s a hundred thousand kilometers away."


    Mirrorymented. "Well, you can sense me no matter where I am, and you can also call me back with a single thought. I think the maximum I can currently stay away from you is about 300,000 kilometers before I''m pulled back toward you. Very little, to be honest."


    The others felt their lips twitch. ''Sigh, seniors and their messed-up distance proportions.''


    Yasenia''s eyes sharpened when she saw a camouged quadrupedal animal jumping from the cliff to attack her with a roar.


    Yasenia opened her maw and roared. "[Star Dragon Breath]."


    She had been umting stars since a while ago, so the white beam of light was massively powerful.


    The mid-level Ethereal Soul body realm beast had no chance and got annihted by Yasenia''s breath attack.


    When her breathnded on the hillside, it left a small crater with a scorched body in the center.


    The dragoness didn''t stop flying and instead elerated as she warned. "Be careful. Creatures like that sometimes live in groups. [Heavenly Constetion Steps]."


    Yasenia''s body was surrounded by starlight, and then her speed increased fivefold, shooting her forward like a beautiful shooting star.


    Along the way, a few creatures jumped at them, but with thebined strengths of our girls, they were not a match.


    Cecile said as she shot an arrow that impaled a low-level Ethereal Soul realm beast. "The exit is near."


    Yasenia saw it momentster and used her [Star Charge]. A white destructive aura surrounded her as giant stars rotated around her, and she pierced through the rest of the valley in a single second, reaching the gigantic.


    The auras around her dissipated as she took in the impressive sight.


    The natural aura, massive forests,kes, and prairies made for a beautifulndscape.


    Angel eximed. "So pretty!"


    Kali smiled. "We will build our sect here? That sounds quite nice, to be honest."


    Andrea frowned. "Will we chop down things to create a city?"


    Evelynmented. "No need, look over there. There is arge area without trees. Taking into ount the size of this ce, just that ce should allow for a few million people to live."


    Yasenia nodded. "Well, this ce has at least a million square kilometers. Honestly, it is quite perfect. Can our formation cover this entire basin, Angel?"


    Angel pondered. "With the sect formation method and Transcendence Ranked core we have, it should be possible to create it."


    Evelyn blinked. "You are going to paint lines across this gigantic ce? It will take years!"


    Angelughed. "Of course not! Formation Building at this scale is done by creating a core formation that will follow a pattern to fill a certain area. After that, we can strengthen it by creating the entire formation physically, but it''s honestly a waste of resources. Even then, theplexity of this type of formation is very, very, high."


    Andrea lifted an eyebrow. "However, I can see that you are quite excited."


    Angel had a big smile and was swaying from side to side, looking around with a deep desire. "Yes! It will be my firstrge-scale formation! I''m super eager and excited. Mommy Tatyana and I have been working for a year already in that formation. We are halfway done. It will probably be done in one more year or so."


    Yasenia blinked. "Speaking of formations… How is that secret formation of yours doing, Mom? Weren''t you going to finish it in a year?"


    Tatyana coughed, looking a bit embarrassed. "Well, a fewplications happened. It''s a bit moreplex than I imagined. So, I don''t know when I will finish it."


    Mirrory snorted augh. "You overestimated yourself, haha!"


    Tatyana''s eyebrow twitched. "I did. I calcted it with my main body tools, but I only have mediocre items currently with me. So, I will need quite a bit more."


    Kali asked. "Aren''t all your tools peak-level Heaven-ranked?"


    Tatyana tilted her head. "That''s why I said mediocre."


    Yaseniamented with a smile as she flew toward the open area. "By the way, Mom. The tools you left with me, I''ve already learned how to use them."


    Tatyana smiled. "Very well. I left them with you, thinking you wouldn''t be able to use tools for a while. Have you unlocked their Transcendence forms?"


    Yasenia and the rest blinked. "Transcendence what?"


    Tatyana answered. "When you are qualified enough, they will be 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 be 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 quiterge."


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


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


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


    Tatyana exined. "They are caves that grow the Spirit crystal used on this 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 userge 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 be a superpower of a ce, you need a stable ie 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 wless Parus from here. Back at home, wless 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 andughed.


    Yasenia asked. "Should wend there to inspect the mine?"


    Tatyana nodded. "Sure, why not."

    Author: A very nice ce to ce 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 regr.


    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 ps, 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 ps are not best about how theynd but about the process they make me go through. For example, will they make me spin in ce? Will she send me flying like a cannonball? Will I fly upward? The process is what is essential as it gives the tail p 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 p 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-.
