The Sect Storehouse
At noon, everyone finished their cultivation.
Upon exiting, I immediately noticed the changes at the entrance to the secret realm, not far from the cultivation room.
They were all quite surprised to see a small, steaming pond that had suddenly appeared next to the original large rock, surrounded by white plants.
Everyone crowded around.
They initially thought the steam rising from the pool was hot, but upon closer inspection, they discovered it was actually a cold pool.
As soon as they got close, they could feel a blast of cool air hitting them.
When everyone looked into the cold pond, they discovered that there were actually schools of fish swimming inside.
Everyone knew that this must have been Lin Xiao's doing.
However, when they looked around, they couldn't find him.
At this moment, Lin Xiao was in a corner halfway up the mountain, staring at the cliff face, studying how wide and deep a cave should be carved out.
He plans to build a sect storehouse here.
That's right, the sect's treasury.
Not long after he finished setting up the ice pool, he received a new task from the system.
It's about building a sect storehouse.
As the sect develops, the sect's various products and profits will increase in the future, and these will all need a place to be stored.
However, it is inappropriate to keep everything in his private treasury.
After all, it's fine to use it as a temporary measure when things are just starting out, but it's impossible for them to stay together forever.
Therefore, he was already planning to gradually separate his private treasury from the sect's treasury, and since the system had just released this task, he decided to do it now.
Actually, building a simple warehouse wouldn't be difficult at all.
You can just build a wooden hut.
However, considering that this storeroom was, after all, the sect's treasure trove.
Moreover, I will have to go into seclusion to cultivate until I reach the Golden Core Stage for some time to come, and I don't know how long that will take.
I wonder how many new members will be added to the sect by then.
Therefore, it is essential to build a sturdy warehouse.
After all, money can be a powerful motivator.
Although their sect now has the Heart-Questioning Road, those who can join and enter the sect in the future will certainly not be great villains.
However, he did not intend to build a very simple warehouse to test people's hearts as if he were setting up an illegal operation.
Regardless of how this affects others, it's extremely irresponsible towards their sect's treasury.
Therefore, he planned to make this warehouse as sturdy as possible.
However, he currently has nothing of substantial quality bricks on hand, only stones and mud.
So Lin Xiao opened the private vault.
Their gaze fell upon the houses built of Cold-Concentrating Jade.
Now we have the materials, right?
He immediately activated the Building Synthesizer and then took out an ordinary house built of Cold-Concentrating Jade from his private treasury and placed it inside.
The next step is to add beams.
He put a few pieces of low-grade spirit wood inside.
They even threw a lock inside.
These are just a few of the random things he picked up while wandering around Yuanling City.
Then he started synthesizing it.
This time he didn't put in Spirit Stone.
After all, they've placed an entire house's worth of Cold-Concentrating Jade, even if it's just ordinary grade.
But it's still quite valuable!
Therefore, there is absolutely no way he would put any more Spirit Stone into it!
Not long after.
[Ding--Sect Treasury successfully synthesized. Please select a placement location.]
Lin Xiao immediately saw a pristine white warehouse with many shelves inside.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand to place the warehouse into the mountainside.
But then he realized he seemed to have forgotten to carve out a space in the mountainside to house the storeroom.
However, just as he was about to take out his tools to make an opening in the mountainside, he suddenly discovered that the area of the warehouse he was maneuvering to float, facing the mountainside, showed that it could be used for placing [something].
Seeing this, Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and tried to place the warehouse against the mountain wall.
Surprisingly, it actually got left unattended!
The moment it was placed, a pure white lock appeared on the mountain wall, and at the same time, a string of identical white keys appeared in Lin Xiao's hand.
Apart from the white lock, the mountain wall looked exactly the same as before.
Lin Xiao picked up the key in his hand and unlocked the lock on the mountain wall.
Suddenly, a door appeared on the originally gray mountain wall.
He pushed open the door and went inside.
He discovered that the interior was surprisingly spacious, much larger than the illusory warehouse he had seen before it was set up.
It is not only wide, but also very tall.
Even if you put a house made of Cold-Concentrating Jade inside, it wouldn't take up much space at all.
Lin Xiao felt that when their sect's wealth could fill this warehouse, then their sect would truly take off.
I took a walk around the spacious warehouse.
Lin Xiao was quite satisfied.
There are quite a few shelves here.
Roughly one-fifth of the area is filled with rows of shelves.
These shelves each have their own preservation function.
Some were used to store herbs, while others were used to store the corpses of Demon Beast.
Lin Xiao took the sealed box containing the Icefield Spirit from his private treasury and placed it on the shelf.
He then took out most of the Ice Stone Grass he had harvested earlier, as well as various other herbs, and placed them one by one on the shelf where medicinal Spirit Plant were stored.
He kept only a small portion for his own private coffers.
Although he acquired most of these things himself, he also relied heavily on the system to have the opportunity to obtain them.
Therefore, Lin Xiao felt that there was nothing wrong with giving most of the money to the sect.
This is his contribution to the sect as its leader.
Besides, if he really needs anything from the warehouse, he can take it.
After Lin Xiao streamlined his private warehouse, he left the warehouse.
As soon as he came out, the warehouse door closed automatically.
And the lock also very consciously closed itself.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao felt that the warehouse was really well designed, which would prevent people from forgetting to lock the door when entering or leaving the warehouse.
After leaving the warehouse at the back of the mountain, Lin Xiao walked forward.
Just then, I saw a group of people who had finished their cultivation gathered around the ice pool, looking at the strange sight.
Lin Xiao stepped forward and asked:
What are you doing here?
Upon hearing this, everyone looked up and, seeing it was him, asked what the purpose of the ice pool was.
So Lin Xiao explained to them that this was the entrance to the Icefield Mystic Realm and told them the opening hours each year.
After hearing his words, everyone was eager to go in and see what this so-called Icefield Mystic Realm and the adjacent Green Field Mystic Realm were like.
However, all of these require cultivation.
Many of them haven't even reached the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining yet.
According to Brother Xiao, these secret realms contain many unknown dangers, and it would be best for them to reach near the cultivation limit of each secret realm before entering.
It's unknown what level their cultivation will reach by next spring, before the two secret realms open.
