The Cloud Mist Mountain Range is a massive mountain range within the Qingtian Realm, extending from the Immortal Cultivation Realm down to the Mortal World and the Primitive Uninhabited Forest.
However, like many large mountain ranges, it lacks a powerful spirit vein to support it, and only certain areas have relatively dense spiritual qi, creating areas of valuable spiritual land.
The Cyan Origin Sect occupies precisely this part of the land.
In the past, this part of the spiritual land would bring significant rental inco to the Cyan Origin Sect every year, while also supporting nurous loose cultivators.
But apart from this tiny section of spiritual land, over ninety-five percent of the territory is exceedingly low in spiritual qi.
Here, many highly poisonous insects and fierce beasts, strengthened by spiritual qi, live; so of these creatures can even unexpectedly kill cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining.
Because the physical strength of cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining is relatively weak and their spiritual qi isn’t enough to sustain a constant spiritual qi shield, they are at risk of being killed by highly poisonous creatures or groups of fierce beasts.
Furthermore, as these poisonous creatures and beasts have only been infused with a small amount of spiritual qi, they hold little value for cultivators, which is why few cultivators venture into the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
With insufficient spiritual qi, it’s virtually impossible for anything valuable to arise, and the simple summary is that the value return is far below the risk.
For mortals, however, there are so good things in there, but they are extrely deadly; setting foot in there is nothing short of courting death.
As a result, the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range remain uninhabited.
In fact, this situation is quite common in the Immortal Cultivation Realm and not unique to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
The Immortal Cultivation Realm is vast and grand, so much so that even Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation cultivators cannot traverse it entirely in their lifeti.
As vast as the Immortal Cultivation Realm is, truly valuable places are not many.
Only regions rich in spiritual qi will yield rare spiritual objects and precious dicines.
However, in most of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, areas dense with spiritual qi have long been occupied by powerful Immortal Cultivation forces or demon beast forces, and the places that could be explored have almost all been explored.
Hence, in this realm where individual might suppresses all, the stratification into classes is truly despair-inducing and insurmountable.
The only path for an individual’s ascension is to rely on outstanding talent and will to rise step by step and beco a mber of the upper class.
The only consolation for ordinary people is that because the Immortal Cultivation Realm is vast and varied, with nurous forces, and under fierce competition, each major force must implent policies and concessions in favor of ordinary people; otherwise, their talent will be drawn away, and their power will inevitably decline, ultimately leading to their downfall!
There have also been many factions that perished due to being self-complacent and oppressing ordinary people.
Ultimately, the Immortal Cultivation Realm has beco what it is today, where core resources are thoroughly monopolized, yet ordinary people still have room to survive, and at tis, if endowed with talent, may even integrate into major forces, eventually growing to a favorable position.
At least, this is what Qi Ping has understood about the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
If Qi Ping were an ordinary loose cultivator or a slightly gifted cultivator, as long as he didn’t encounter warfare, he could slowly climb to a decent position, and as long as he stayed clever, he could always do quite well.
However, as Qi Ping’s cultivation level increases, he has to compete for the core resources of this region, from Foundation Establishnt-level spiritual dicines, spiritual objects, arrays, cultivation techniques, to forms of magic, which will beco increasingly precious, especially when it cos to the Golden Core-level spiritual objects, which are core resources in every region, the difficulty in obtaining them is extrely high.
Qi Ping currently hasn’t thought of a particularly good way; the only thing he can do now is to take it one step at a ti.
After all, he is certain that in his current state, he absolutely cannot join a sect, or else the probability of being targeted by powerful figures will be seventy to eighty percent, and this isn’t made up from thin air but is data supported by many bloody examples, and Qi Ping absolutely will not risk his life for a gamble.
Qi Ping currently has so plans to earn spirit stones, but what he truly lacks is a channel for exchanging high-level cultivation techniques and resources.
...
Deep within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, in a desolate valley.
This place is secluded, and if not for Qi Ping’s vast number of bees, it would be impossible to find this location.
Furthermore, this valley is extrely far from Qingshi County, ensuring a basic level of safety.
The valley is large, filled with rugged rocks, devoid of soil, animals, plants, or water sources...only hard stones!
It’s truly a place where not even birds would stop!
Yet at this mont, Qi Ping stands at the bottom of the valley, overlooking this vast valley, with a look of great satisfaction on his face.
"What a great place!" Qi Ping exclaid in admiration.
If others knew of Qi Ping’s thoughts, they would likely curse him for being crazy.
What’s so good about such a place?
Unbeknownst to others, this is exactly the kind of place Qi Ping needs, one scarcely visited by living beings.
"The place is large enough to support my future planting of many things, creating a substantial amount of spiritual land."
"There are quite a few similar valleys, so this place is not only inconspicuous but can also be considered very hidden with few animals passing by, making it ideal for to use illusion arrays for concealnt."
One man’s poison is another man’s honey; Qi Ping needs a place that everyone else despises!
This is exactly what he wants, making the chances of his territory being discovered extrely close to zero.
"This is the place!"
After Qi Ping had his bees conduct a large-scale search of the surrounding environnt to ensure there were no issues, he decided on this place!
This is his exclusive territory!
Or it could also be called his Druid Sanctuary!
....
"Let think...how should I develop this place?"
Looking at the place, Qi Ping was sowhat flustered.
Safe it may be, but the safer it is, the more trouble it will be to develop; everything needs to be built step by step by him.
"Let’s take it one step at a ti!"
Qi Ping found that trying to plan everything was troubleso; it would be better to accomplish one thing at a ti, and gradually his territory would take shape on its own.
"First, let’s set up the illusion array and the concealnt array!"
Hiding his figure and aura was naturally the most urgent task.
So Qi Ping began his arrangents, and with experience in Tier One low-level illusion arrays and concealnt arrays, coupled with his current strength and powerful divine soul, setting them up was a straightforward task.
It didn’t take Qi Ping long before a roughly one-hundred-ter illusion and concealnt array rose from the ground.
Once Qi Ping’s figure entered this array, he vanished into the canyon, returning the whole canyon to its usual state.
In reality, Qi Ping remained standing in the canyon but was simply concealed by the illusion.
"Not bad, not bad, though crude, it’s sufficient for now; I can always upgrade it later!"
At this mont, Qi Ping was imnsely happy, for he finally had a territory exclusively his own!
"The most important illusion and concealnt arrays are already in place; next cos building everything else..."
