Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 315: Chapter 204: Settling Down

Having bid farewell to his senior sect brothers and sisters, Li Shiming could finally take a good look at his own cave dwelling.

He felt very good about his eldest sister and three senior brothers; the eldest sister was extremely bold, and although it was his first meeting with the second and third brothers, they didn’t act distant at all, something evident from their playful bickering.

You see, both the second and third brothers were Middle Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, who also managed many other sect cultivators outside, holding positions that wouldn’t normally allow them to relax too much.

It was only in front of their own sect brothers that they could let loose and be themselves.

The same could be said for Xu Chuan, who treated Li Shiming like a close friend.

Everything was too ideal, making Li Shiming feel that choosing the Shushan Sect was absolutely the right decision.

...

He walked through the grand hall of the cave dwelling, which housed a storage room with shelves made of spirit wood, which were presently bare.

After some thought, he took out some of the spoils of war he had obtained earlier and placed them on the shelves.

Everything he brought out was of the level of Spiritual Artifacts.

These treasures, either because they were not suitable or not of high enough quality, were still keepsakes worth commemorating his adventurous experiences.

With these Spiritual Artifacts, the storage room no longer felt empty.

He then took out furniture acquired from the Six-fingered Sound Demon’s cave dwelling and arranged it in the study and bedroom, placing all sorts of furnishings in their respective places throughout the cave dwelling.

This furniture, all made from second-grade spirit wood, was far too luxurious for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s use.

Their exchanges, unlike their regular meetings in the Qi Refinement Realm, had evolved to message exchanges, respecting their busy cultivation schedules as communications between Foundation Establishment Cultivators could span months due to intense solitary cultivation sessions.

After informing her that he had become a disciple under Elder Su and now possessed his own Spirit Peak, he stored away the communication tablet.

Stepping outside the cave dwelling, looking at the mountains full of spirit fields and spirit fruit trees, he thought about the fact that Sword Holding Peak was now his private property, hence the original appointed Spirit Plant caretaker had finished their task.

Normally, a cultivator would need to spend Spirit Stones to hire a Spirit Plant caretaker to assist until they had a permanent caretaker in place.

However, Li Shiming himself was a Spirit Plant-master. He activated the long-unused “Spring Breeze Nourishing Technique,” causing dark clouds to gather in the sky.

With much more substantial Spiritual Power inside him compared to during his days in the Qi Refinement Realm, his powerful Spiritual Thought allowed him to sustain the “Spring Breeze Nourishing Technique”; before the first cloud formation had even fully gathered, a second was already forming.

Dozens of “Spring Breeze Nourishing Techniques” later, Sword Holding Peak was blanketed by dark clouds, and amidst their interaction, a life-giving spirit rain began, enriching every Spirit Plant on the peak.

He could hear the sounds of the Spirit Plants growing in the spirit rain, their roots stretching through the spirit soil.

True to her forthright nature, his eldest sister Ye Jingxian acted swiftly, bringing three late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators to Sword Holding Peak on the third day.

During those three days, aside from cultivating, Li Shiming had been studying the Array of Sword Peak, with a preliminary plan in mind to enhance it.

However, due to a lack of materials for the Formation, he had yet to begin.

“Little junior brother, I’ve brought the people for you!” Ye Jingxian exclaimed, gesturing to the late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators at her side upon seeing Li Shiming.

“Eldest sister, why are they all female cultivators?” Li Shiming asked, raising his eyebrows slightly.

“Little junior brother, do you have any issues with female cultivators?” Ye Jingxian’s aura suddenly intensified, her slender hand looking ready to act.

“Eldest sister, female cultivators are excellent, I’m very satisfied!” Li Shiming, remembering that his eldest sister was also a female cultivator, hurriedly changed his tune.
