In the DND game adaptation, the Tree Shepherd is also known as a "production machine".

This is because Tree Shepherds have a very powerful advanced career talent: Tree Spirit Contract!

[Tree Spirit Contract: As a Tree Shepherd, you can form contracts with trees and imprint Tree Spirit Marks on those under contract. (The number of trees you can contract is related to your Spiritual Power; the stronger your Spiritual Power, the more trees you can contract.)]

[Tree Spirit Mark: You can imprint a spell mark that corresponds to the traits of the tree onto the Tree Spirit. A tree with an imprinted Tree Spirit Mark will possess this spell ability...]

This career talent may seem simple, but it's actually very powerful.

The upper limit of this ability depends entirely on the player's creativity.

For example, someone imprinted an Ore Collection Spell Mark on a Gold Element tree, which allows it to continuously gather refined iron ore around it.

Or they imprinted a Moon Essence Collection Spell Mark on a Moonlight Attribute tree, enabling it to continuously produce the Essence of the Moon.

...

Most importantly, once the corresponding collection spell mark is imprinted, the tree can complete production and collection work non-stop for twenty-four hours, producing a large amount of resources.

This skill has also been developed by players into various quirky gameplay styles.

However, limited by the game's characteristics, the ability has many restrictions; after all, producing so many peculiar things is useless and purely results in overproduction.

"But now I'm in the Immortal Cultivation Realm!" Qi Ping's heart surged with immense joy.

He had previously been unable to decide on which profession to choose, but upon seeing the Star Spirit Wood Seed today, his mind became clear instantly.

"It must be Tree Shepherd!"

For example, he is currently troubled by the lack of Spiritual Land, but what if he imprints a Spirit Gathering Technique into the Star Spirit Wood?

By stacking the Spirit Gathering Technique with the Star Spirit Tree's ability to gather Spiritual Qi, it will undoubtedly enhance the Star Spirit Tree's ability to gather Spiritual Qi to a much higher level.

If combined with a massive Spirit Gathering Array, wouldn't Qi Ping be able to create his own Spiritual Land?

"Yes, if I successfully imprint the Spirit Gathering Technique into the Star Spirit Tree, I can find a remote, untouched place in the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to build an undisturbed residence."

"Then, by using the Spirit Gathering Array to gradually collect the Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth, and purchasing some inexpensive items with Spiritual Qi, I can, with the help of the Star Spirit Tree imprinted with the Spirit Gathering Technique, create fertile Spiritual Land with abundant Spiritual Qi."

"As long as the Spirit Gathering Technique, the Spirit Trees that gather Spiritual Qi, and the Spirit Gathering Array are strong, and with the support of items rich in Spiritual Qi, the upper limit of this Spiritual Land can also be continually raised....."

"Then, by thoroughly hiding that location with an array on the outermost layer..."

"This way, I can create a secret territory that belongs entirely to me without anyone else finding out!"

Upon thinking of this, Qi Ping couldn't help but feel a little excited.

What he fears most now is planting various Spiritual Objects on the land of the Cyan Origin Sect and being discovered by them or disturbed by strangers.

Even if he later learns and sets up many powerful arrays, it's hard to avoid the scrutiny of the Cyan Origin Sect or other high-level Cultivators.

But in a deserted place deep in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, it's different; as long as it's well-hidden, who could find the Spiritual Land there?

This allows Qi Ping to freely plant various things inside without worrying about being discovered for cultivating various Spiritual Medicines, or needing to collect the mountain's Spiritual Medicines before leaving.

"This way, I can have a place that's completely mine!"

Thinking of this, Qi Ping was not just a bit excited; he even felt overwhelmed with joy and wanted to cry!

Since his journey into Immortal Cultivation, Qi Ping had been constantly troubled by Spiritual Land, and given his various abilities, leaving the support of Spiritual Land was simply not an option!

The Cyan Origin Sect and most Cultivation Sects in the Immortal Cultivation Realm use Spiritual Land to control the vast majority of cultivators, and Qi Ping was no exception in being constrained by this.

But now, Qi Ping found a way to fully create his own Spiritual Land, so one can imagine his excitement at this moment.

He can finally break free from the sect's control!

For someone like Qi Ping, who harbors many secrets, this is even more significant.

"Calm down...calm down..."

After the initial excitement, Qi Ping took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

The journey to building his secret territory was still quite far away.

Firstly, Qi Ping must meet these conditions:

Advance his profession to Tree Shepherd.

Acquire the Spirit Gathering Technique and learn it to at least Minor Achievement, ideally to Perfection.

Achieve success in arrays, capable of setting up a Spirit Gathering Array and the corresponding Concealment Array.

"Only after fulfilling these conditions can I start building my Spiritual Land..."

"And to continue enhancing my Spiritual Land, I need to continually improve my array skills and learn stronger Spirit Gathering Techniques. My Spiritual Power also shouldn't be neglected..."

But even so, Qi Ping was already very happy; although it was a bit troublesome, having a Spiritual Land not controlled or discovered by others was absolutely worth it, no matter the trouble.

....

The combination of Tree Shepherd, Star Spirit Wood, and Spirit Gathering Techniques directly resolved a fundamental issue for Qi Ping.

Only now did Qi Ping gradually realize the strength of the Tree Shepherd in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Furthermore, the playstyle of a Tree Shepherd isn't just limited to this. With the Tree Spirit Contract talent, Qi Ping can also use trees to produce various rare resources to build his territory!

Production of resources is just one way to play; the Tree Spirit Contract can also be fully utilized in combat.

For instance, Qi Ping could imprint a Flame Burst Technique onto a Fire Attribute Spirit Tree; with time and the tree's growth, the Flame Burst Technique's power would reach a terrifying level.

By then, Qi Ping could control the tree to unleash the long-accumulated Flame Burst Fireball, launching a powerful attack!

"That's right, exactly like this. In two or three months, when the Druid reaches Level 5, I'll choose Tree Shepherd as my advanced profession!"

"Plus, besides the Tree Spirit Mark, Tree Shepherds also have many abilities to obtain Druid experience, which can accelerate my Druid leveling up."

"When my Tree Shepherd level is higher, and I acquire the ability to cultivate Tree-man Warriors, I can grow Tree-man Warriors inside the territory to form an array to guard it....."

...

After determining his future development direction, Qi Ping quickly sent a message to Meng Yan, asking him to help obtain array knowledge and various arrays, including Spirit Gathering Arrays, Defense Arrays, Attack Arrays, and Concealment Arrays; he needed array insights as well.

Meng Yan quickly responded to this message:

[Meng Yan: It's a small matter, Brother Qi. Just wait in assurance, and I will certainly get the best cultivation array knowledge for you!]
