"Fellow Daoist Ling, what’s wrong with you?" Patriarch Ge noticed Elder Ling of the Beishu Trading Company, who was also a female cultivator, remaining in a prone position and couldn’t help but ask.
Li Shiming had already left, and it was truly improper for Elder Ling, being a female cultivator, to remain in such a posture.
"I know who he is now!" Elder Ling slowly stood up, and with a bitter expression, she looked at the other Nascent Soul Ancestors and said.
The other Ancestors were sowhat unclear about the aning of Elder Ling’s words. The ’he’ being referred to at this mont was naturally Li Shiming, but wasn’t it already clear who Li Shiming was?
"He has another identity outside, as you know the Beishu Trading Company has always sought to open up connections with other continents, and thus has never stopped gathering intelligence from the outside world. Not long ago, we received information stating that the Ten Thousand Beast Sect of Dongqi Continent had beco the most powerful sect there, occupying more than half of the territory and controlling the vast majority of resources!" Elder Ling no longer concealed anything, realizing that they were all about to beco fellow sect mbers.
"The Ten Thousand Beast Sect is so powerful, no wonder Senior Xiao is so afraid of him!" Fan Ancestor exclaid.
"You’re mistaken. It’s not the Ten Thousand Beast Sect that’s powerful, it’s that the Ten Thousand Beast Sect has a powerful Great Cultivator who, with his strength alone, subdued all the major sects of Dongqi Continent. He even destroyed major sects that opposed him, slaying two Peak Great Cultivators, causing the superpowers of the cultivation world to not dare oppose him." Elder Ling shook her head and explained.
"He joined such a powerful sect!" The Nascent Soul cultivators were collectively startled, realizing that Li Shiming had joined the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, which ruled over Dongqi Continent; a continent not as enclosed as Beishu.
"That powerful Great Cultivator of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect has the surna Li!" Elder Ling spoke with undisguised admiration in her eyes.
"You can’t an...?" Ancestor Lu asked in disbelief, unable to finish his sentence as even saying such a guess out loud made him feel insane.
"The Ten Thousand Beast Sect has only one Great Cultivator with the surna Li. Considering Senior Xiao’s previous attitude, is there still a need to guess?" Elder Ling shook her head and replied.
Only at this point did the Nascent Soul Ancestors truly recognize the power of Li Shiming.
"I advise everyone to imdiately prepare for moving the sect. Do not make any minor moves, as perhaps due to past affiliations, he might still exercise so restraint, but if truly angered, the consequences are unimaginable!" Elder Ling said solemnly.
"Mr. Ge, please accompany to Shushan Sect. Our Shushan Sect will be the first to relocate and rge our sects here!" Fan Ancestor turned to Elder Ge with a salute.
"Our Beishu Trading Company will be second!" Elder Ling reacted quickly, despite feeling a bit annoyed for not realizing sooner, she followed up.
Subsequently, each sect made arrangents with Elder Ge without any Nascent Soul Ancestor hesitating in the least.
Shushan Sect, all cultivators were notified to pack their important spiritual objects as the seven major sects of Beishu Continent were rging at the Thousand Illusion Sect’s location.
"Master, why are we rging sects?" Elder Su approached Fan Ancestor, anxiously inquiring.
The sudden notification ca with no preparation beforehand, let alone uprooting a foundation built over millennia. How could it be so easily relocated?
What would happen to the mountain’s foundation? Would it just be left behind?
The investnt in this mountain gate represented Shushan Sect’s accumulation over thousands of years.
"It’s Li Shiming’s decision. His strength has reached unimaginable levels. You are his master; henceforth, securing more resources for this branch of Shushan will depend heavily on you. I’ll enter seclusion after the rge." Fan Ancestor vigorously patted Elder Su’s shoulder.
"Why not let Elder Su take over the head of Shushan Sect, and after rging, he would beco the head of a branch!" Elder Zuo interjected.
At such a ti, the differences between the sects no longer mattered. Securing the best conditions after the rge was paramount.
Due to Elder Su and Li Shiming’s master-disciple relationship, regardless of whether Li Shiming acknowledges Elder Su as his master, the bond is real.
From this brief interaction with Li Shiming, it was clear that Li Shiming cherished such ties deeply, otherwise these Nascent Soul Ancestors wouldn’t rely be in seclusion but facing a fate similar to Elder Li’s.
"It’s settled then. There’s no need for a ceremony; just announce it directly!" Fan Ancestor nodded in agreent.
There was no need for discussions with other cultivators; the agreent of these two Ancestors was sufficient.
All cultivators of Shushan Sect boarded the large flying boat, taking with them all materials they could carry, forcibly breaking the seclusion of cultivators and bringing them on board the flying boat.
Regardless of their cultivation level, the cultivators watched their mountain gates with a sense of reluctance.
From then onwards, this place would no longer be the mountain gate of Shushan Sect, as Shushan Sect would cease to exist.
"Please, the five of you, relocate this mountain gate!" On the other side, Elder Ge bowed to five late-stage Golden Corpses.
Despite being Nascent Soul Early Stage, Elder Ge, and even a Great Cultivator, couldn’t discern the true nature of the late-stage Golden Corpses unless they actively exposed their corpse energy, treating them instead as Great Cultivators.
Thus, she was unaware these were five late-stage Golden Corpses, only assuming they were great cultivators brought by Li Shiming.
The five late-stage Golden Corpses nodded, dispersing toward five directions of the Shushan Sect’s mountain gate.
"Everyone retreat!" One of the late-stage Golden Corpses issued a command using Divine Sense.
The flying boats and cultivators in the air heeded the order, retreating to a distance. They watched the direction of the mountain gate from afar, and besides a few Ancestors, the rest of the cultivators were unaware of what was about to happen.
Even the few Ancestors only expected the five late-stage Golden Corpses to move a few mountain peaks.
But when the five late-stage Golden Corpses began, all cultivators looked on in terror at what unfolded, with many rubbing their eyes or pinching themselves to check if they were seeing things incorrectly or dreaming.
The five late-stage Golden Corpses stood at five points around the Shushan Sect’s mountain gate, inserting their hands into the earth.
Trendous late-stage Fourth Grade energy conducted through the ground. At this point, it was already Li Shiming’s five brains controlling the five late-stage Golden Corpses.
In the ’White Emperor Technique’ of the White Emperor Sect, there was a spell for moving large mountain gates.
Though late-stage Golden Corpses lacked the earth elent attribute, they naturally possessed control over earth manipulation, enabling the activation of the spell for moving large mountain gates from the ’White Emperor Technique’.
A deep crevice appeared between two late-stage Golden Corpses, forming a pentagon with five cracks, containing the entire mountain gate of Shushan Sect within.
The lower half of the pentagon was the complete foundation of the mountain peaks, forcibly uplifted with the original spiritual veins intact.
The mountain gate of Shushan Sect comprised nurous peaks, equivalent to a mountain range, yet this substantial mountain gate was lifted and slowly rising into the air.
"What imnse power is this!" Patriarch Ge mumbled to herself.
At this mont, she felt rging sects was the best choice. In the future, perhaps the new sect might give rise to a powerful entity capable of wielding such power.
Previously, among the seven sects, even after a millennium of developnt, they couldn’t break through to Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
With Li Shiming’s support, it was believed that the new sect would usher in a new era.
Not just Patriarch Ge, nearly all cultivators who witnessed this true power were filled with hope for the future new sect.
The gigantic pentagon-shaped land of the Shushan Sect’s mountain gate, along with all cultivators, flew towards the Thousand Illusion Sect.
Fortunately, the Thousand Illusion Sect wasn’t too far from Shushan Sect. The main limitation on this journey was the speed of the flying boats, as the five late-stage Golden Corpses had to suppress their speed while carrying the enormous pentagon-shaped land.
During the flight, Elder Su’s accession to the head of Shushan Sect was announced to all cultivators.
Many cultivators didn’t understand why the sect head position needed changing during this brief period before rging.
But those who knew so details were aware of the reasons and approached Elder Su, expressing their support.
Elder Su understood that the cultivators’ sentints were entirely due to his disciple, Li Shiming, who now single-handedly dominated the Great Cultivators of Beishu Continent.
