Chu Shi read out the important information: "Explorer Qiao Yi discovered a newly revealed sect ruin. The spiritual energy there is extremely abundant, making it very suitable as the headquarters for the Xuanmen."
Su Han asked, "I didn't expect our explorers to find such a good thing in the wilderness. A newly emerged sect ruin, what are the detailed circumstances?"
Chu Shi said, "While searching for a cultivation sect, Explorer Qiao Yi stumbled into a formation on a large mountain. That formation could isolate spiritual sense detection from cultivators, but it couldn't block radio waves. So Qiao Yi used a satellite phone to contact us. After searching through a large number of sect formation secret manuals, we finally broke that formation."
Following this, Chu Shi showed Su Han a video of the sect ruin.
The video displayed a large area of broken walls and ruins. These ruins spanned over a dozen mountain tops, clearly indicating the past glory of this sect. However, it had now become a wasteland. It seemed that some catastrophe had befallen it, leading to the sect's destruction.
"Judging solely by the scale of the area it occupies, this sect far surpassed the Qingfeng Sect and the Qingshui Sect. By the way, is there any difference in actual measurements compared to the Baihe Sect and the Chiyun Hall?"
"Deputy Minister Su Han, based on these broken walls and ruins, this sect ruin is even larger than the Baihe Sect and the Chiyun Hall. In terms of area, it definitely meets the standards of a first-rate sect."
Su Han nodded and said, "Very good, then let's go take a look. If the spiritual energy is indeed very high, we will establish the Xuanmen headquarters there. By the way, which sect originally owned this sect ruin? Is there any information?"
Chu Shi said, "Based on the carved characters on the ruins, we deduced that this sect ruin was called the Hundred Beast Sect. None of the cultivation world books collected by our explorers contain any record of this sect. Isotope dating of the ruins indicates that this ruin is approximately thirty thousand years old."
Su Han was shocked. As expected of the cultivation world, their history was measured in tens of thousands of years!
Su Han watched the video of the sect ruin. Aside from the scattered stones of the ruins, there was nothing else.
Su Han asked, "How is it there? Is there any danger?"
Chu Shi said, "The explorers have already traversed the entire ancient sect ruin without encountering any danger. The formation that hid this sect ruin was its last resort. Now that this power is gone, the sect ruins are safe."
Su Han said, "In that case, I'll go and see that ancient sect ruin too!"
Chu Shi said, "Alright, then let's arrange for a hovercar. We can depart immediately. I was also planning to go and see that sect ruin."
Su Han was a bit surprised. This time, Chu Shi didn't stop him from going to the sect ruin. Normally, if Su Han wanted to leave, Chu Shi would have tried to stop him.
The location of that sect was within the Southern Domain. However, it was closer to the Juebi Mountain Range and situated in the no-man's-land between the Baihe Sect and the Chiyun Hall, which was why the ruin had not been exposed to others. The distance from the Xuanmen branch here to the hovercar was over five thousand kilometers. The journey was too long, so they directly used a supersonic aircraft, flying for three hours to reach their destination.
The supersonic aircraft hovered and stopped near the ancient sect ruin.
As Su Han stepped out of the supersonic aircraft, he saw that there were already several hundred Longguo soldiers and experts exploring the ancient sect ruin.
Su Han now understood why Chu Shi had allowed him to come here. It turned out that so many Longguo people were already exploring the area. Even if there were any dangers, the people who arrived first would have already encountered them.
Su Han surveyed the situation. The ancient sect ruin was located on the peaks of various mountains. Steep cliffs surrounded them on all sides, and there were no mountain paths leading down from these peaks. It was difficult for ordinary people to ascend to these summits. Only ordinary people with exceptional rock-climbing skills could reach them. It seemed that the ancient sect members used flight to reach here in the past.
Moreover, the spiritual energy here was very abundant, far exceeding that of the Qingfeng Sect. In some areas, mist-like spiritual energy could even be seen.
Su Han said, "Chu Shi, the spiritual energy here is very abundant. Do we have any instruments to measure the spiritual energy concentration here?"
Chu Shi shook his head and said, "Our scientific instruments are still unable to analyze spiritual energy. Spiritual energy can only be distinguished by the perception of cultivators."
Su Han said, "I wonder how the spiritual energy here compares to the spiritual energy at the Baihe Sect."
Chu Shi said, "Yes, this is also an important matter. We need to find a way to have cultivators try out the spiritual energy concentrations at the Baihe Sect or the Chiyun Hall."
Su Han was now a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining. He could also sense the concentration of spiritual energy.
Su Han explored all the mountain peaks here. The highest mountain peak had the most concentrated spiritual energy, approximately twenty times the spiritual energy concentration at the Qingfeng Sect, reaching a mist-like state. In such an environment, cultivation speed was very fast. The spiritual energy concentration on other mountain peaks was five to ten times that of the Qingfeng Sect.
Su Han stated, "The spiritual energy concentration here appears to be at the same level as the Baihe Sect and the Chiyun Hall. We will establish the Xuanmen headquarters here. Once the sect headquarters is built and the Xuanmen is established, we can start recruiting disciples in this world."
Chu Shi quickly replied, "Recruiting disciples in this world? Deputy Minister Su Han, I believe there is no need to recruit disciples in this world. We have so many Longguo people; we can simply find some people within Longguo."
Su Han shook his head and said, "No, no, it's a bit different. It's better to recruit some disciples from this world. That way, our Longguo's power will be even greater. However, the number of disciples recruited must be strictly controlled."
Chu Shi said, "Alright. This is the blueprint designed according to the terrain here. Deputy Minister Su Han, please take a look."
"So be it!"
Following this, Su Han went to the highest peak with the densest spiritual energy and, without wasting any time, immediately began cultivating at the highest peak.
After a period of cultivation, it was already the next day. Su Han opened his eyes and saw that a large amount of supplies had been transported in.
A staff member saw Su Han wake up and quickly stepped forward to say, "Deputy Minister Su Han, you're awake."
Su Han nodded and said, "Yes, I'm awake. But it can't really be considered waking up, as I was cultivating the entire night."
The staff member asked, "Then can we start construction now?"
Su Han nodded and said, "Begin construction!"
