The cultivation within the spirit realm was subdivided into several stages:
Spirit Sea: Replenishing the life sea of true essence.
Spirit Illumination: Nourishing all acupoints of the body (no fixed number).
Spirit Essence: Nourishing the bone marrow with true essence.
Spirit Core: Forming a true essence core in the life sea.
Spirit Nurturing: Nourishing the core with touch and aspirations.
Spirit Nascent Essence: Slowly breaking the core and forming a nascent spirit.
Spirit Growth: Nourishing the nascent spirit with true essence until it becomes like the cultivator in terms of appearance.
Spirit Consciousness: Opening the sea of consciousness.
Spirit Migration: Placing the infant spirit in the sea of consciousness.
Throughout the continent, the Great Ape Dynasty held dominion, prompting sects to develop at the continent's edge or near the central mountain range to avoid the ever-watchful eyes of the imperial family. Despite this, there were scarcely any sects near the mountain due to its lack of prosperity. Influenced by his past life's novels and his preference for freedom, Di Tian chose the mountain range. For a beginning, he decided to occupy 7 outermost mountains. Even so, the entire territory exceeded a radius of 600 km, surpassing even the expanse of the countries in his previous life. This territory's vastness was a testament to the continent's grandeur.
At present, Di Tian's sect was under construction and had been for the past twenty years. It would take another decade for all the facilities to be completed. Once the sect opened, its sustenance would be based on agriculture. Di Tian's sect was not intended to be a mere mercenary guild.
During the next twenty years, Di Tian planned to temporarily halt his cultivation. In the Spirit Sea realm, unless you possessed cultivation treasures that required active refining, cultivation was futile. Spirit energy would automatically be absorbed, transformed into true essence, and guided into the sea of life. It was akin to how mortals respired air. Spirit realm cultivators could live for years without oxygen. It was even rumored that half-step transcendants no longer needed air to sustain their lives.
The body refinement concept he adopted was simple: Break to Stand. Through a specific simulation, he would gradually destroy his body and then reconstruct it using medicine filled with vitality and, if necessary, his true essence. This process would range from micro to macro, repeating until he became immune to the given stimulation. At that point, not only would his strength and power increase, but even his vitality would expand. He would then proceed to a higher level of stimulation. It was a cultivation without fixed ranks and could evolve until the end of the Dao.
Twenty-three years later, the technique's outline was complete. Now, he only needed to further his understanding of the physical body, treasures, and the forces between heaven and earth. He also divided the levels of brute power a human could possess into two types: creative and destructive. The levels of destructive force included various scales, from destroying rocks to obliterating entire universes. The creative force levels mirrored these but represented the opposite—creation.
The destructive force was divided in :
Rock mouving
• Hill Destruction
• Mountain Destruction
• Island Destruction
•Continent Destruction
• Sea Destruction
• Moon Destruction
• Planet Destruction
• Star Destruction
• Planetary System Destruction
• Galaxy Destruction
• Reality destruction
• Cosmos Destruction
• Universe Destruction
• Totality Destruction
• Nothing Desruction
Maybe the creative power level would be :
• Hill creation
• Mountain creation
• Island creation
• Continent creation
• Sea creation
• Moon creation
• Planet creation
• Star creation
• Planetary creation
• Galaxy creation
• Reality creation
• Cosmos creation
• Universe creation
• Totality creation
• Nothing creation
The construction of the sect's basement had concluded six months ago. Di Tian thought, "It's time for me to recruit the first generation of the Star Seeking Sect. I also need to find some innate cultivators to occupy key positions before the younger generation matures."
He had envisioned the sect at its peak, composed of seven mountains: five dedicated to disciples (acquire, innate, spirit 1-3, spirit 4-6, spirit 7-9), a management mountain, and a task mountain. This structure would house elders and deacons as well.
His next thought was to form a reliable team of 30 acquire realm deacons and 5 innate elders for the disciple mountains. He also recruited 2 innate elders for each of the two mountains for management and task imparting. A half-step spirit realm cultivator was chosen to act as the great elder.
"Task elder, send some deacons to recruit disciples who are younger than 16 and have entered the Dao," Di Tian instructed. The region, though prosperous, lacked its own geniuses.
"Great elder, supervise the arrangement of the library in the five cultivation mountains," replied Su Mu, a middle-aged man with an extremely handsome face. Su Mu had joined the sect after Di Tian promised to show him the spirit realm of his technique. Su Mu's technique could only help him cultivate the first heaven of the innate realm. If not for that limitation, given his talent, he might have been stronger than Di Tian by now.
"Notify me a day before the sect opening ceremony," Di Tian requested.
Currently only two disciple mountain where opened so the 5 montain elder where divided in 2 mountains . A bit deeper in the mountain range was Di Tian's place. As a spirit realm giant such distant was nothing to him. In fact with a proper technique he ould fly but he did not have time to train on this.
"I will take all the time before the ceremony to sleep". All those years he only sleep the strict minimum. It was time for him to let go a little.
30 days later, it was finaly the opening ceremonie. Not only were there , the recruited disciples families, there were also some dignitaries.
After a simple ceremonie, the disciples were guided to their respected mountain. Original Di Tian only asked to look for some acquire realm genuis but plasently he managed to obtained 5 innate disciples less than 25 years. It means in 100 years, the spirit seeking sect will have a batch of innate realm masters and he Di Tian could call himself an ancestor.
