Zombie Cultivation Across Worlds-Chapter 55 – Open up a Cave Dwelling and name it Water Curtain Cave

Wan Wuying continued, "For now, focus on establishing your cave dwellings. I will request the necessary resources for your practice from the Tianyin Gate. They need our Extreme Yin Cave's assistance and won't dare refuse."

"Once things are stable, we must begin relocating mortals, incorporating the surrounding barbaric lands into our Extreme Yin Cave's domain."

"Only then will we truly have a foothold."

Chu Xuan nodded in agreement.

That's how the Wuji Sect operated back then.

Once you became an inner disciple, you had hundreds of mortal servants at your beck and call.

Those mortal servants had no lives of their own; their sole job was to prepare meals and clean the cave dwellings for the inner disciples of the Wuji Sect.

Cultivators are the foundation, but these servants are equally indispensable.

Moreover, many spiritual plants and herbs needed for alchemy, and ores for crafting, don't require cultivators to plant or mine.

Such labor can be entirely entrusted to mortals.

Only the exceptionally precious ones require the cultivator's personal involvement.

More importantly, there are spiritual seedlings born among mortals.

These spiritual seedlings are mortals with spiritual roots.

After testing, the seedlings enter the sect to train, study, and comprehend, eventually becoming new disciples.

Among these disciples, those with good aptitude will continue to strive for higher realms.

Those with lesser aptitude will leave the sect, establish families outside, and propagate.

The likelihood of spiritual seedlings appearing among the descendants of cultivators is higher.

This cycle creates a virtuous circle.

Ultimately, it leads to the sect's prosperity and flourishing.

It can be said that behind every grand and flourishing sect, there are countless mortals as its support.

Chu Xuan never underestimated the role of mortals.

After Wan Wuying finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash.

The sound of rumbling echoed near the temple.

It was clear Wan Wuying was establishing his cave dwelling.

"I'll go over there," Li Xuanming pointed north.

Liu Zhenxiong and Wu Teng also sought suitable locations to establish their cave dwellings.

Chu Xuan didn't follow them but flew south alone.

He had no specific requirements for his cave dwelling.

He just wanted peace and not to be disturbed by others.

After all, he had to leave the Cangxuan World periodically to travel to Ocean Blue Star.

Chu Xuan rode the Heavenly Force Flying Sword, circling the area for a long time before finally choosing a secluded valley.

Within the valley, a waterfall cascaded down.

The water formed a small lake in the valley, with some unknown fish and shrimp within.

Around the lake grew some green bamboo and unknown miscellaneous trees.

The overall environment was quite elegant, perfectly aligning with Chu Xuan's vision.

"This will do."

Chu Xuan thought for a moment and mischievously decided to place his cave dwelling behind the waterfall.

He took out the Soul Reaping Chain and swung it forward.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The solid rock was immediately blasted open.

The Soul Reaping Chain probably never imagined it would one day be used by its master to smash rocks.

Stone fragments flew in all directions, splashing into the lake and startling the fish.

No matter how desperately they tried to escape, they couldn't leave the lake.

Just like everyone's life.

Before long, a rough cave dwelling was carved out.

As for the uneven rocks inside the cave, Chu Xuan only needed to cast a few Stone to Mud spells to easily resolve them.

However, the Stone to Mud spell could only handle small rocks; larger rocks couldn't be transformed.

This was why Chu Xuan initially used the Soul Reaping Chain to carve out the cave dwelling.

Finally, Chu Xuan gathered a ball of water to wash away the dirt and stone fragments inside the cave.

Thus, the cave dwelling was completed.

Next was setting up formations.

Chu Xuan was already quite adept at these tasks.

In less than an hour, he had set up formations around the valley, including the Maze Array, Killing Intent Formation, Warning Formation, and Gathering Spirit Array.

Unless a Golden Elixir cultivator intervened, a Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't break through his formations in a short time.

"Unfortunately, it's still missing a formation spirit to guard it."

"If there were a formation spirit, even if I'm not here, the cave dwelling would remain secure."

Chu Xuan made a mental note of this.

Then he returned to the cave dwelling.

The cave dwelling was simple.

It only had four stone chambers: a practice room, an alchemy room, a crafting room, and a spiritual plant room.

They were all quite empty.

Chu Xuan didn't plan to store anything valuable here.

It was just for appearances.

At this moment, a voice came from outside.

"Junior Brother Chu, where are you?"

It was Liu Zhenxiong's voice.

Chu Xuan rode the Heavenly Force Flying Sword to the sky outside the cave dwelling.

Sure enough, he saw Liu Zhenxiong and the other two approaching together.

"Senior Brothers, have you all finished establishing your cave dwellings?" Chu Xuan smiled and cupped his hands.

Liu Zhenxiong laughed heartily, "Establishing a cave dwelling is no difficult task, naturally simple."

Wu Teng looked at the valley below, "Junior Brother Chu chose this place? Not bad, not bad, quite a scenic view."

Li Xuanming smiled, "What is the name of Junior Brother Chu's cave dwelling?"

Chu Xuan thought for a moment and smiled, "Water Curtain Cave."

The three of them brightened up, "Good name, has a touch of ancient charm!"

The four of them chatted for a while, during which Chu Xuan learned the locations and names of their cave dwellings.

It wasn't until dusk that they parted ways.

Chu Xuan returned to the Water Curtain Cave once more.

This time, he activated all the formations.

Chu Xuan sat cross-legged on the stone bed, reflecting on his recent experiences.

"This time, I've gained quite a bit."

"Most importantly, I've joined Wan Wuying's ranks and successfully cleared my name, transforming into a cultivator of the Tianyin Gate."

"From now on, I'm no longer a demonic cultivator hunted by all."

"Secondly, the Soul Reaping Chain now has a soul."

"With Hui Kong's current ferocity, my trump card has clearly increased."

"Thirdly, the Steel Silk has undergone a second transformation. I need to spend more time nurturing it into a life-bound Gu Insect."

"Lastly, I've obtained the storage bags of Sun Shi, Hui Kong, and several other Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"I've already checked Sun Shi's storage bag; now only Hui Kong's storage bag remains."
