3 An OP Head start
Plum Tree Sect
"It is Huang Huawei I would like to meet the patriarch, this is a life or death problem for the sect!" Said the sect leader.
The one who greeted the sect leader wasn't the patriarch but one of his cultivation partners, madam Lu. Madam Lu is the one who controls the patriarch's harem. So even the sect leader had to treat her with respect.
With a low bow the sect leader said " greetings madam Lu. There is a problem only the patriarch can fix. I would like to thank you for passing the message for me."
While Huang Huawei was talking. Madam Lu looked over her once and noticed there was something wrapped up in her arms. As a person with as much power as madam Lu she of course knew that Huang Huawei was giving birth.
When madam scanned the baby with her spirit sense she noticed what the problem was and quickly took the baby into her hands without warning.
The sect leader wasn't scared anything would happen to her baby madam lu was like a second mother to her. Someone she respects so much would never do anything untold to her child.
When madam lu got a closer look she looked at the sect leader and said" I'll take responsibility for this I'll make sure he knows of this. I'll take you child and bring him to the patriarch. You go back for now."
The sect leader was so happy that she left as quick as possible before the madam changes her mind.

Golden Dragon Sect
The sect leader was having his baby bathed in the Underground Dragon vain. The dragon vein holds ninty percent of the dragon spirit Qi in these lands. Any cultivators that stayed in it would have have back to back breakthroughs.
So, you can imagine what it would do for a untainted baby that just came out of the womb.

Back at the joyous sect madam Lu was opening formation after formation to be honest it looked infinite but after one hour of opening the formations madam lu finally got to the center of one yin mountain.
"Hong'er what bring you here in such a rush?"
Said the patriarch with light smile on his face. If anyone that doesn't cultivate would think that he was a nice grandfather next door because he was giving off no aura at all. In actually even sprit sense couldn't find his aura. It's like he was a stone with no signs of life.
When madam lu noticed this she ran up with the baby in hand and asked" what's wrong Wang Chong, I thought you were cultivating what don't I feel a aura of life from you?"
"Hong'er it was all a lie, I wasn't cultivating back when I entered life and death cultivation i was hit by lightning witch accidentally activated the ancient formation. Witch In turn purified my body and Qi. At this moment I'm in the last stage of earth immortal realm."
As the patriarch was talking the shock on madam Lu's face kept becoming bigger and bigger. By the time the patriarch stopped talking madam Lu looked like a bullfrog. You can't imagine the shock shock on her face.
As madam Lu was about to ask a few questions. The patriarch noticed the baby in her hands and said" who's baby is this? And why have you brought him to my abode?"
Madam Lu quickly explained the situation with the other three sects. She also asked the dreaded Question even the sect leader couldn't make a choice. She asked what would the sect leader do give up the boy with the yin veins or the mediocre daughter who Barley had the requirements to cultivate.
After scanning the baby and thinking for a few breaths of time the patriarch made a decision that even he don't know weather he right or not.
After working to break down the uses of the ancient formation, Wang Chong learned a unimaginable secret. By putting eighty one girls in a nine by nine formation you could take in there Yin Qi without engaging in dual cultivation.
As you might have already guessed the patriarch decided to put the unarmed baby into the formation to siphon the girls Qi. This would also give the child a head start in the yin yang cultivation but also make his yin veins more saturated and may invoke a mutation.
This was the best option and the most useful to someone who has such unearthly luck, to be born with yin veins as a male.
The Patriarch quickly called a meeting. When all two hundred and thirty five elders gathered. The patriarch told them that all the elders with a cultivation higher then core formation, that they will all be going on a mission. The elders have to scour the land for eighty one girls under the age of five born on the Yin day, month and year.
The elders that find one or more girls will get contribution points and be ranked up to a higher level. The elders that don't want to rank up may be given a cultivation pill for there rank or one treasure from the One Yin Mountain. The mission was classified top secret and anyone who let out one word of it would be hunted down by the sect and all of our allies.
When the elders heard this they all got serious. There has never been a time when the patriarch had given such harsh requirements. Even the people who were working as spies for other sects wouldn't dare to face the wrath of the sect and all of there partners.
Some elders acted as monks and went around exercising demons and taking away demon spawn. Parents in this era were happy to give away there children because less children less mouthes to feed.
While other elders went down less conspicuous routs. Some elders straight up kidnapped the girls while other bought the girls from there parents for a good price. Like before the parents barely cared that the girls got kidnapped some parents didn't even look for them. While the ones who did look stopped soon after.
With all the girls gathered they totaled. One hundred and twenty four. The patriarch was beaming the smile on his face was as clear as day. He looked trough all the girls and kept thirty four girls and said add them to the younger generation of the sect and train them to be the baby's future guards.
One of the female elders took the girls and brought them with her before anyone else could argue. She and the thirty four girl disappeared.
Then the patriarch looked over at madam Lu and said" pick nine girls these women will be the baby's future cultivation partners. Have them cultivate the yin birthing yang scripture."
Madam Lu bowed to the patriarch and swept hep spirit Sense over the remaining girls. She didn't pick the girls with most Yin Qi or the girls with the strongest physiques, instead she
Picked the nine girls with the most stable yin in there body's.
This didn't shock the patriarch but instead earned a nod of encouragement. This is why the patriarch pick madam Lu instead of the elders because she knew what was right for the long term instead of short term gains.
After that was all settled the patriarch with the baby in his arms waved for the formation to open and told the elders to go back. The patriarch took out his natal spirit treasure. The River Zither. This treasure was not like any normal treasure it was a spirit treasure witch means that it holds a artifact spirit.
Spirit treasures may start out weak but after gaining consciousness they can start cultivating and gain there own body apart from the treasure. This may sound easy but it depends on the level of the treasure and materials used to make it. Witch means based on the materials the treasure can take one leap and go to the heaven or the treasure may crawl just to move a inch.
That's why choosing a natal treasure is not a easy thing. Even now most cultivators are wary of becoming one with there main treasure just Incase it damages there potential.
After taking out his treasure the patriarch enlarged the zither and asked the girls and madam Lu to join him on top. After everyone got on and because the girls haven't started to cultivate the patriarch made a shield of spirit Qi around them.
Once they got to the top of one yin mountain the patriarch had madam Lu put the girls in the right position based on the nine by nine formation. Then he had the girls sit cross legged on the ground. After all the preparation were done madam Lu took the baby for the patriarch and laid him down on the center of the formation.
At this point the patriarch has even studying the formation for a long time and he has barely scratched the surface but the yin taking part of the formation was something he was skilled in and based his sect around.
The patriarch even with his large reserves of spirit energy as a earth immortal could barley feed the formation. So he laid hundred to high ranked spirit stones in front of him. Spirit stones are ores that are found deep underground that are saturated with spirit Qi. In every mine it is hard to find even ten high ranked spirit stones.
So him using hundred means this was going to be a hard hit to his pocket. But as the patriarch was taking them out he didn't look disappointed or unwilling all he had on his face was seriousness.
