In all incarnations mission, Shankara went and that is the turning point for his mission. After coming back from kailash only, Shankara established the monasteries (The Peetas). He created the mission only after coming back from kailaash. Actually in Kailaash Mahadeva gives five Atma linga and the Soundarya Lahari.
Please Understand Soundarya Lahari was not composed by Shankaracharya, it is Mahadeva who composed. If you see the description, it is such a romantic description of mother Devi, except Mahadeva nobody can do. Nobody is authorized to do. Soundarya Lahari was full of extraordinary beautiful description of how Devi is!! Her Soundarya, Her Glory, Her Grace!! Shakara cannot do and not authorised to do, so naturally Mahadeva gifted.
Mahadeva(Shiva) asks Shakara, what do you want? Shankara says whatever you keep it as most close to your heart give me that. Then Mahadeva says once Devi was just lost in my glory, listening to my teaching, shiva sutras, but that beauty was so graceful, wonderful, I just lost myself in that glory and composed few verses to describe how devi was looking. So this is the most closes thing to my heart, I gift you this. So Mahdeva gives Soundarya Lahari and 5 AtmaLingas, Mahadeva gave it to Shankara.
Shankara comes down from kailash with that and installs pancha peetas,( 5 peetas) Kanchi, Sringeri, Dwarika, puri, Joshimat Badrikaasham. So these are the five places, he establishes peetas and keeps Soundarya Lahari as an important book for people to remember Devi, meditate on Devi, then establishes his whole mission.
Please understand, all 5 mutts, Devi is the Adidevatha, eventhough Atmalinga is the deity, the god is Devi. Devi only worshipped even in Atmalinga, it is called Chandramouleeswara. Of course Shiva pooja is done, naturally for shiva linga, shiva pooja only be done, but devi become the main deity in all peetas.
