Purple Bamboo Academy

Lin·Purple Firmament has finished speaking.

The Seventh Vice Minister listened, completely stunned.

Then, give a thumbs up. "Great!"

"This reason is perfect; there's no better reason than this."

"Good!"

Lin·Purple Firmament nodded. "Have your people withdraw, I'll handle the rest."

"That..."

The Seventh Vice Minister thought for a moment before saying, "When you take action, try not to cause any deaths. Although I'm not afraid, it's still a headache to deal with disputes."

I once heard a saying.

"Um?"

"Pilots are worth more than gold. If they are top-level spies, they must be worth a lot of money too, right?"

"Ahem... yes, that's a saying."

The Seventh Vice Minister gave an awkward smile.

oops.

It's so embarrassing that my little scheme was seen through.

After the various documents were delivered, the Seventh Vice Minister took their leave. Lin·Purple Firmament did not delay for a moment and immediately soared into the sky, heading towards South Sea Purple Bamboo Island.

"There are no buildings."

"We can only make it a little simple, but fortunately it has spiritual energy, so it won't be too shabby."

She murmured to herself as she walked.

What kind of architecture should a cultivation sect, or rather an academy, have?

If we were to judge by the standards of the Cultivation World, Earth simply couldn't accomplish this. Take the Purple Mansion as an example; setting aside everything else, just the main hall of the Purple Mansion Palace alone would have used countless rare and precious materials and been equipped with numerous array formations...

The entire Purple Mansion Palace is a floating ' Sky City '.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at it from afar, you can tell it's high-class and definitely not an ordinary place.

How do we do that on Earth right now?

There are no materials available. Although the Resident Happiness Living Department is also searching, spiritual energy has only just begun to fully recover, so progress is really slow.

Even if one or two materials were found, it would be absolutely insufficient to support Lin·Purple Firmament in building a prestigious academy.

Since that's the case, we'll just have to make do a little.

"Fortunately, it's on Purple Bamboo Island, and the school is also called Purple Bamboo Academy."

"In that case, using purple bamboo for houses and buildings makes sense."

"Besides, aren't there popular legends in Hua Nation about ' Sweeping Monk ' and 'great hermits living in the city'? The seemingly ordinary but actually extraordinary university buildings should be quite nice as well."

Before long, we arrived at Purple Bamboo Island.

Lin·Purple Firmament, holding a key, descended from the sky.

The staff from the Resident Happiness Living Department hadn't had time to evacuate yet, but since they all recognized ' Lin Fan,' they weren't panicked.

Lin·Purple Firmament naturally didn't want to greet them, so she went straight into the formation and arrived at the very center of the island.

Then...

At a glance, I spotted the lotus platform that Lin Fan avoided like the plague in the video comments.

"..."

"Want to give it a try?"

The thought suddenly popped into her head, but after thinking it over, she decided to give it up.

"Fine, fine, let's give that guy some face."

"But I'm really curious!"

While restraining her impulses, Lin·Purple Firmament also had some ideas in her mind.

"The terrain is not bad..."

"Although it's not a big deal, it'll be enough for the short term. In that case, let's begin."

The entire island is perfectly round, with a diameter of 5,000 meters. It is high in the center and low at the edges, and the overall slope is not very steep. If you don't look too far away, it looks like flat land.

There are no mountains or rivers on the island, only land and groves of purple bamboo.

The terrain is very simple and easy to handle.

With a thought, her Divine Sense spread out.

Click click click...

One by one, the unwanted purple bamboo stalks were uprooted, and the soil was deformed as if it had been crushed by a road roller.

Meanwhile, some of the trees that were not uprooted formed the four corners of a square or rectangle.

These are all the 'pillars' of the house!

Lin Fan is neither an earth-attribute cultivator nor a wood-attribute cultivator, and Lin·Purple Firmament cannot simply clasp his hands together and shout something like "Three Rooms and Two Halls Technique".

However, the existence of Divine Sense can accomplish all of this, although it is a little more troublesome.

It really is just...

A little!

Less than half an hour.

The central area of the island has already undergone a dramatic transformation.

Not all purple bamboo has been transformed into bamboo houses; rather, the bamboo houses are hidden within the bamboo forest.

At first glance, dozens of bamboo houses of various sizes are scattered among the bamboo forest, seemingly coexisting naturally...

At the very center stands a small two-story bamboo house. It is neither large nor particularly bustling, but at first glance, it evokes only one feeling.

Nature!

It's as if it were formed naturally, without any human intervention.

In front of the small bamboo house was a large, flat open space with many stone benches made of hardened soil.

Lin·Purple Firmament stood in front of the bamboo building, glanced at it, and nodded slightly. "It should be quite good to hold the open class here."

The rest of the houses have also been completed.

Lin·Purple Firmament even thoughtfully prepared toilets in some of the 'dormitories'.

Naturally, there would be no toilets in the classrooms.

In fact, there is no other way. Cultivators can only Grain Avoidance after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage. How many cultivators are there on Earth right now?

You can't expect people not to use the restroom, can you?

Even in the Holy Land, within the outer sect, there are ' Latrine Grounds '.

"It can probably accommodate over a hundred students."

After making a rough estimate, Lin·Purple Firmament was quite satisfied with the data.

It's not that we can't accept more, but the first batch... isn't necessary.

With the current teaching staff, even if there are more teachers, we still won't be able to take care of everyone.

Moreover, if Purple Bamboo Island continues to be transformed, it will look rather ordinary, and it is still full of a 'natural' atmosphere.

If it's renovated any further, it will end up looking like a ' Thatched Cottage '.

"However, it still lacks a bit of 'ethereal charm'."

Cultivation Academy that embraces a 'natural approach'—doesn't that make sense?

It's true that there's nothing wrong with it, but if it's not 'ethereal' enough, then it's not natural, it's... rustic.

Fortunately, this is very simple for Nascent Soul Cultivator.

It's just adding special effects, isn't it?

With a wave of her hand, Lin·Purple Firmament set up some formations that served no purpose other than special effects...

Then, all the bamboo houses began to emit a soft glow.

It's sparkly and really pretty.

What happened to the bamboo house?

So what if it's Thatched Cottage?

As long as it shines, as long as it sparkles~~~

That makes perfect sense! It's definitely high-class, high-standard, and a veritable celestial abode! Who would dare to look down on it?

Purple Bamboo Academy, the buildings are now complete!

The periphery.

The Resident Happiness Living Department who had not yet left saw some changes through the gaps in the bamboo forest and were all taken aback.

"Oh My God?!"

"So many bamboo houses have appeared so quickly?"

"Cultivators have such methods? If I had those methods too, I'd definitely quit my job and become a construction worker! I'd make a fortune!"

"Why be a construction worker? Get loans, acquire land, become a real estate developer!!! Are you stupid?"

"..."

"What?! It's glowing?!"

"Wow, it really is glowing!"

"My god, cultivators are truly something else..."

"Hey guys, we're cultivators now too."

"Come on, we're all cultivators, but they're the true immortals, while we're just novices at best..."

"No, I must work hard to cultivate after I get back!"

"Actually, I have a little-known fact: Purple Bamboo Island is about to be transformed into a pure Cultivation School. Do you think we... might have a chance to enroll?"

"But what about our age, to go to school?"

"What's wrong with our age? Although we're in our thirties or forties, what's thirty or forty years old to cultivators?"

"..."

After the house was ready, Qi Zixiao began to think about other issues.

For example, issues of security and preventing spying.

"Technological means are indeed extraordinary."

She looked up at the sky and muttered to herself, "If it's a cultivator, they can set up Bewilderment Array array so that even if someone flies over from above, they won't be able to see it. However, things like satellites and machines have no emotions, so they won't be blocked by Bewilderment Array arrays."

"I forgot to bring Old Chen with me. Let's go back."

"I'll bring Xiaoran and Na-jie over to familiarize them with the place as well. At the same time, I need to establish the academy's reputation and select a few more teachers."

How should a signboard be erected?

Set up a stone tablet, arrange some formations on it, carve some words on it, and place it in a suitable location.

Finding a suitable teacher is not so easy.

The path of cultivating immortality is inherently defying the heavens; one must be cautious and proceed step by step.

If it's just someone you don't have much of a relationship with, that's fine. But if you're going to open your doors to students, it's like starting a new school of thought. You have to be responsible for your disciples!

Cultivation, formations, alchemy, weapon crafting, Daoist arts (mental state of mind)...

You need to be familiar with all these areas, and you must also have sufficient skills in them.

Furthermore, Lin·Purple Firmament felt it was necessary to find a few truly capable modern experts to assist them...

For example, using Electromagnetic Field fields to form an array—that's Old Chen's idea.

This also proves that modern technology has its merits.

So, can modern scientific thinking be used to simplify and integrate fields such as alchemy, weapon crafting, and even cultivation to make them easier, more efficient, or more effective?

Very likely!

At least that's how Lin·Purple Firmament sees it.

Therefore, it is very necessary to bring in some people who have a deep understanding of technology.

But the problems are also obvious.

Most of these people have their own people or forces at work; in short, they are 'taken'.

For example, the Resident Happiness Living Department must have a large number of relevant scientific and technological talents.

But they're loyal to the Resident Happiness Living Department, so why use their people? Doesn't that amount to 'resource and information sharing'?

There wasn't such a clause in the original terms of the cooperation agreement.

"Huh?"

Lin·Purple Firmament suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Why does it have to be a teacher?"

"Bringing some students over should work, right?"

"They also have modern ideas!"
