The next day, Ling Xiaoyue left Yunshan City to complete her task.
Her approach was not much different from that of a lone cultivator.
What is the most important thing for a sect? Some people would say talent, and that’s somewhat true, but the most important is still money.
With money, it’s not a problem to recruit people. Tossing out a handful of coins can always fish up a person or two. Conversely, if there’re people but no money, those people will eventually leave.
Therefore, whether big or small, every sect has its foundation, which is not something else but income and industry, the essence of a sect’s establishment.
When choosing a location, every sect not only seeks places rich in spiritual energy but also those with resources, from spirit mines to spirit gardens and fields. Otherwise, the outcome will be depletion and eventual bankruptcy.
Even the smallest sect would have a medicine field to maintain basic income because cultivation isn’t about finding a place to stay put. Before fasting, one needs to eat, and after fasting, the expenses are even greater. The consumption of spirit pills, spiritual medicines, and spirit stones is almost endless, plus the costs of daily cultivation and the materials for crafting elixirs and magic treasures, enough to terrify even a Golden Core expert into excreting their Golden Core on the spot.
To put it bluntly — without money, you can’t cultivate a damn thing.
And lone cultivators, with no sect, no faction, and no income, must earn all their resources themselves. Demon extermination is only low-end work; high-end work involves taking tasks released by sects.
Many sects have matters they cannot handle openly, so they assign these tasks to lone cultivators. If successful, it just costs some money, if not, there’s no real loss.
Ling Xiaoyue’s way of survival was similar to that of lone cultivators; although she belonged to a sect, she was also on her own. Even with property, one person cannot manage it all, and still needed to earn money herself.
