After that, Li Sheng took the Tortoise of Heaven in and out of the Evergreen Mountain Range until the next day when both of them finally came to a stop. He had successfully transported all seven mid-grade spiritual veins within the inner range and fifty-two low-grade spiritual veins from a three-hundred-mile radius back to the Spark Sect. As for the scattered broken spiritual veins, he had become too lazy to follow them and left them for the spiritual ghosts to handle.

Li Sheng arrived at the spiritual vein area in the back mountain, which had been expanded dozens of times by the spiritual ghosts. The aura within the ten spirit gathering rooms had turned into mist, with disciples cultivating inside becoming faintly visible.

"This earth affinity is indeed a great ability..." With the help of the guardian spiritual ghosts, Li Sheng's long-suppressed ideas for infrastructure finally began to take shape. "It's a pity I have no experience in construction. I should leave that to that girl Hong Ying..."

As he thought this, he opened the panel.

"Six martial arts have been replaced by the Heavenly Stage Divine Ability prototype..." Li Sheng nodded to himself as he looked down.

"Spiritual veins can be promoted?" He rubbed his eyes, remembering those three words had not been there before. With a tentative thought, he focused on the + sign.

**Would you like to upgrade the quality of the spiritual vein?**

"Can it really be promoted?!" Li Sheng's heart leaped with joy. Previously, when he tried to promote it, the system had explicitly stated that fifty sect points were required.

"It seems there's another way to upgrade sect facilities..."

"If I can gather all the spiritual veins from the entire Lingchuan Prefecture, just think of how abundant the spiritual energy in the sect will become!"

With a mind full of possibilities, he issued a command: "Promote!"

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

**Upgrading spiritual vein quality: Estimated time three hours.**

"Spiritual veins can be transported around to save sect points, but finding a formation master capable of laying out a four-rank great array won't be easy..." Li Sheng took out the Mystic Stone and decided to give it a try.

In the Mystic Stone space, the previously issued tasks had not been taken, so he added another below.

**Upgrade the Formation: Raise the Three-Rank Guardian Great Array to Four-Rank; those interested may discuss in detail.**

After leaving the Mystic Stone space, Li Sheng went to his sister's residence.

In the courtyard, Bai Ye leaned half against a wheelchair, gazing at the colorful butterflies flitting among the flowers. The sunlight turned her black hair into a golden hue, giving her an otherworldly and sacred appearance.

Two women stood nearby, watching the young girl carefully.

Seeing that his sister looked well, with a faint smile on her face, Li Sheng let out a sigh of relief.

One of the women hurriedly greeted him, "Greetings, Sect Master!"

Li Sheng nodded back with a gentle smile, "Sister seems to be in good spirits."

Bai Ye's eyes sparkled like autumn water as she playfully said, "With all the trivial matters gone, suddenly having some leisure feels quite nice..."

"Only poor Hong Ying is suffering... She often comes to complain about how you are exploiting her."

Li Sheng feigned anger, "Alright, alright! She has time to come to complain to you, so it seems she's too free; I need to find her more tasks!"

"You bully Hong Ying, and what will you do when Sister returns?" Bai Ye shot him a displeased glance.

"By the way, Brother, why has the spiritual energy in the sect suddenly become so rich?"

"Do you remember that egg beside the spiritual spring?" Li Sheng recounted the miraculous aspects of the Tortoise of Heaven, causing his sister to exclaim in surprise repeatedly.

At that moment, a white light orb appeared.

"Wah wah wah..."

Li Sheng felt a bit exasperated. It was much better when it chirped "tweet, tweet, tweet." This round of "wah wah" was full of provocation, clearly having teamed up with Hong Ying again.

The orb continued to shout a few more times, and Li Sheng raised an eyebrow, summoning his thoughts.

Outside the formation, two figures stood in front of the array, one of whom was Master Yue Ling, Qingyi's aunt.

Li Sheng's heart surged with joy; he hadn't expected Miss Qingyi to be so efficient.

Recalling his thoughts, Li Sheng smiled, "Sister, it seems you will be recovering soon!"

"Recovering?" Bai Ye's eyes lit up, and the calm lake of her heart rippled slightly.

"Wait for me!"

A flash of lightning passed, and her figure vanished from the courtyard.

Within a few breaths, the mist around the array dissipated, revealing Li Sheng's figure.

"I didn't expect Master Yue Ling to arrive so quickly."

Yue Ling smiled slightly, "What Li Sect Master instructed is naturally something I keep in mind. After leaving the range of the magical disaster, my niece has been busy non-stop. Most of the resources were transported via the transmission array, ensuring high efficiency!"

"Thank you both for making the trip," Li Sheng said with a smile, then looked at the middle-aged man on the right, whose presence was hidden yet strong, slightly surpassing Yue Ling.

"Just a helper; don't mind him!" Yue Ling rolled her eyes at him. She had almost been driven mad by his chatter during the trip.

The burly man awkwardly scratched his head, showing no signs of displeasure. Instead, his eyes looked at Yue Ling with admiration.

"I am Xie Penglin; it's a pleasure to finally meet Sect Master Li. Truly a person of remarkable talent and extraordinary presence. Along the way, Ying'er has mentioned you numerous times with great praise."

"Ying'er?" Yue Ling shuddered slightly, goosebumps rising on her white arms.

Seeing the fiery anger about to erupt from her eyes, Li Sheng hurriedly interjected, "You two have traveled a long way; please come into the sect for a discussion."

Yue Ling suppressed her annoyance and shot the burly man a fierce glare, "We won't need to enter the sect; there are important matters in our clan. Since the resources have been delivered, we should be on our way."

Saying this, she tossed over four storage bags.

"Leaving in such a hurry... What about the payment?" Li Sheng was taken aback; he had planned to spend three days refining sixty high-quality Spirit Gathering Pills to repay the debt.

"Qingyi said, payment can wait; Sect Master Li can focus on his matters first. These pills and manuals total two hundred thirty thousand spiritual stones, at a six percent discount that's one hundred thirty-eight thousand spiritual stones."

"Then I thank Miss Qingyi for her kindness!" Li Sheng revealed a sincere smile.

It was gratifying that the other party prioritized his affairs, spending resources and using the transmission array for his sake, which greatly pleased him.

Their willingness to delay payment and transfer resources valued at over two hundred thousand spiritual stones further endeared him to them.

While he understood this was a way to repay his life-saving grace, it genuinely saved him a lot of time, which was what he needed most right now.

In the midst of the level of despair from magical disasters, no one could guarantee safety. If Li Sheng were to perish unfortunately, these resources would go to waste.

His admiration for their boldness was genuine.
