Chapter 128: Empyrean Harmony Sect
And while Liu Meiying was handling the inner workings of the Empyrean Trade Consortium, or ETC for short, her daughter Liu Anwei had also reached her destination in Nexara.
The place she arrived at was a mountain range with all the mountains surrounding a single huge mountain in the middle. Liu Anwei planned to use this mountain range for her Sect, with the huge mountain as the main peak.
She stood at the top of the central mountain, which did not have the usual peak but was instead a flat, barren space without buildings or plants.
One of the Shadow members first discovered this place, noticed this special situation, and reported it to their higher-ups.
The higher-up then informed Liu Anwei and Bai Xueyan, who were nearby searching for a place to set up their Sect.
After hearing about these mountains, the girls' interest was piqued, and they decided to check it out as they had already planned to make it their Sect's territory.
Initially, both of them decided to use the token together, but Bai Xueyan had to attend to something, so she went back while Liu Anwei continued to the mountain, planning to use the token.
As Liu Anwei stood at the summit of the central mountain, her eyes swept across the vast mountain range surrounding her.
Each peak, majestic and towering, formed a natural fortress around the central mountain, making it the perfect place to establish her Sect.
The wind whispered through the barren plateau, promising what was to come.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Anwei retrieved the Sect token from her storage ring.
The token glimmered similarly to Liu Meiying's Chamber of Commerce token, indicating that this token was also connected to the Xu family stele and would be under the family.
After looking at the token for a few seconds, she took a deep breath and used it.
A light emanated from the token, growing brighter and expanding outward in waves, enveloping the entire mountain range.
As the light spread, the barren ground beneath her feet began to tremble. The earth shifted and moved as if it were alive, responding to the power of the Sect token.
Slowly, the flat, barren summit of the central mountain began to change. The ground rose and fell, forming the foundations for the Sect's main peak.
Massive stone buildings emerged from the earth, their walls adorned with intricate carvings and symbols of the Sect.
These buildings were not ordinary structures; they were imbued with the energy of the chaos rank Family stele, making them invincible to the elements and strong enough to withstand any attack.
At the base of the main peak, the earth continued to shift and change.
Roads began to appear, winding their way through the mountain range, connecting each peak to the central one.
These roads were not simple dirt paths; they were paved with a smooth, light stone that shimmered with a faint, otherworldly light.
The roads were designed to be durable and resilient, and from their appearance, they seemed to be made to last for centuries.
As the roads took shape, the surrounding peaks also began to transform.
The power of the Sect token carefully molded each peak, forming different areas that would serve various purposes within the Sect.
Some peaks were shaped into training grounds, with wide, open spaces perfect for practicing martial arts and cultivating inner strength. Others became libraries with an air of wisdom, and it seemed the place was special as she could feel a trace of alignment just from observing it from afar.
What would happen if she were to get close to the library or even enter it? All of this was for her to discover later, as her attention soon shifted towards the other peaks.
While she was looking at those peaks, she noticed a special plant that seemed to be the most abundant. When she checked for its information, she was surprised to find that it was a special kind of plant.
These plants are among the most sought-after in the low to mid-level worlds because they absorb pure Spiritual Qi from the void and then divide it into two parts.
One part goes into their roots and flows into the main Primordial vein in the planet, which helps the vein evolve—a requirement for the planet's rank-up.
The other part is sent to the leaves, which are then released into the surroundings, making the place a cultivation paradise that every cultivator hopes to cultivate in.
However, Liu Anwei saw hundreds of such plants scattered around the Sect, which shocked her, but she did not react much as the number here is less than one percent compared to the number of similar plants in the Xu family subspace.
She also saw some plants of a higher level, so although she was surprised, she wasn't too bothered by this.
Meanwhile, the Sect token's power didn't stop at creating buildings and roads.
As the transformation continued, special plants began to sprout all across the mountain range.
These plants were unique, designed to enhance the flow of Spiritual Qi throughout the Sect.
They absorbed Qi from the void, concentrated it, and then released it in a purified form, making the entire mountain range have light clouds of pure Spiritual Qi.
Liu Anwei watched in excitement as the mountain range transformed before her eyes.
The once barren and lifeless peaks were now teeming with energy and potential.
The Sect token had not only created a physical space for the Sect but had also infused the entire area with spiritual energy, making it an ideal place for cultivation and growth.
The transformation was complete as the light from the Sect token began to fade.
The central peak now stood tall and proud, with the Sect's buildings firmly in place.
The roads connected each peak, forming a network allowing the Sect's members to move freely and efficiently.
Now fully grown, the special plants released a steady stream of purified Spiritual Qi into the air, creating an environment perfect for cultivation.
Along with all the other peaks were other occupations, such as the Alchemy Peak, Forging Peak, the Sword Peak, and the Outer Disciples Peak, where outer disciples could live and practice.
There was also another Peak for the Inner disciples and the Miscellaneous disciples, who would be the caretakers of all the tedious chores while the Outer and above disciples either practiced or left the Sect for missions.
Other Peaks were present, and there were also some empty peaks for the True Disciples and the Elders, who would use one of these Peaks to open their own line where they would pass their cultivation knowledge to future generations.
Liu Anwei felt a deep sense of satisfaction as she looked at the completed Sect. It was everything she had envisioned and more.
The Sect token had created a physical space and laid the foundation for a powerful and prosperous future.
She took a moment to appreciate the beauty and power of what would be hers and Bai Xueyan's future force, which would help Xu Qianghua when needed.
The Sect would be a place of learning, growth, and strength. It would be a place where disciples could train, cultivate, and rise to new heights. And it would all begin here, on this mountain range, under the guidance and protection of the Sect token.
With the transformation complete, Liu Anwei entered the main hall and started looking at all the blessings that the Sect received after the token was used:
Blessing of Eternal Qi Flow
Description: The Sect is granted a perpetual flow of Spiritual Qi throughout the mountain range.
This blessing ensures that the Qi never depletes, providing an endless supply of energy for cultivation.
The special plants within the Sect will continuously purify and enhance this Qi, making it more potent and effective for all disciples.
Blessing of Unyielding Foundations
Description: The structures and buildings within the Sect are blessed with indestructible foundations.
This blessing makes them immune to natural disasters, erosion, or any form of damage.
The Sect's main peak and surrounding buildings will stand firm for millennia, providing a safe and secure environment for future generations.
Blessing of Insightful Wisdom
Description: The Sect receives a blessing that enhances the clarity and understanding of its disciples.
This blessing allows them to grasp complex techniques and teachings with greater ease, accelerating their cultivation progress and deepening their comprehension of the Dao.
....
....
....
Seeing all these blessings, she couldn't help but feel satisfied as she knew with these blessings, the Sect would have an easier time in the future.
But there was still much work to be done. Disciples would need to be recruited, teachings would need to be passed down, and the Sect would need to be managed and maintained.
"But first, this place needs a name," she said as she vanished from the hall and appeared in front of the name plaque at the entrance.
"From now on, this Sect will be called the Empyrean Harmony Sect," she declared, and as she did, the empty plaque now had a name appearing as if someone was writing it with all their strength.
