Chapter 38

She figured she should be very suitable for cultivating immortality.

According to the situation of cultivating immortality, perhaps she could soon surpass Zhongli and truly rely on herself to protect Liyue.

Thinking of this future, Keqing couldn’t help but want to join Shushan.

However, after thinking about it, Keqing still didn’t say anything.

After Jiang Yan said she was a Sword Body, Cloud Retainer’s resentful aura was about to become a grudge.

Keqing still didn’t want to provoke Cloud Retainer.

“This person’s strength is truly hard to fathom…”

Madame Ping sighed.

“A Cave Heaven comparable to the size of Liyue is already unimaginable, yet this person actually made one as big as Teyvat.”

“Moreover, he went to the Dark Sea in the blink of an eye to catch Archons as disciples’ trials.”

“The most critical thing is that the barriers of Teyvat couldn’t stop him at all; he could leave Teyvat at any time.”

“Such a visitor from outside the sky is unheard of.”

Regarding Jiang Yan’s strength, everyone didn’t want to say much; after all, they couldn’t understand it now.

Perhaps after they started cultivating immortality and became familiar with the various realms, they would be able to understand a little.

However, Ningguang said softly:

“Rex Lapis, Shushan opening up a Cave Heaven can be considered the first step. Should we go to celebrate tomorrow?”

Zhongli nodded slightly.

“It should be so. As for the congratulatory gift, according to Jiang Yan, just send him some animals.”

“Some… I’m afraid that’s not enough.”

Thinking of the Cave Heaven Jiang Yan opened that was the size of Teyvat, Ningguang said tactfully.

Zhongli was silent for a moment and said slowly:

“Just send some with characteristics; as long as there are some sparks, the framework of the Shushan Cave Heaven’s ecosystem can be built.”

That was barely okay. Ningguang hurriedly ordered Baiwen to find people to catch animals.

I’m afraid the Millelith couldn’t have imagined that they would have such a strange task on their heads in this lifetime.

“Rex Lapis, the Profound Origin Mirror is a major matter, how should it be handled?”

Ningguang asked again.

Zhongli saw through Ningguang’s thoughts at a glance, feeling helpless in his heart.

“Just leave it in the Jade Chamber, but if you need to monitor Liyue, there must be two or more the Liyue Qixing present.”

“If you need to observe the world, there must be an immortal present.”

Ningguang was happy in her heart and decisively put the Profound Origin Mirror away properly.

She didn’t care about Zhongli’s arrangement.

Zhongli was just worried that she would abuse the Profound Origin Mirror; it must be said that Zhongli was right to worry.

In the world, only information is the most valuable.

With the Profound Origin Mirror, Ningguang could double her wealth within a year.

However, she wouldn’t do such a thing.

The Profound Origin Mirror was so useful; using it to make money was putting the cart before the horse.

As long as the Profound Origin Mirror could be kept, things would be much easier.

Ningguang also knew that it was difficult for Zhongli to make such a decision.

The Profound Origin Mirror could observe Archons and rulers without error.

How could Zhongli be at ease with such an ability?

Didn’t it mean that Ningguang could find him whenever she wanted?

Just as she was calculating, sure enough, Zhongli spoke again:

“Remember, without my permission, you must never observe the rulers, and even more so, you must not observe Celestia.”

“That is natural.”

Ningguang nodded seriously.

Just as Zhongli was about to say something else, the communicator that was in direct contact with Alice rang urgently again.

Zhongli’s face darkened, and he hesitated whether to hang up.

But the next moment, the communicator jumped out by itself.

Alice forcibly connected the communication, and the next moment, she said excitedly:

“Hey hey hey! Morax! Guess what I just saw!”

“It’s incredible! It’s outrageous! You absolutely can’t imagine…”

Before Alice could finish, Zhongli said softly:

“It’s nothing more than Fellow Daoist Jiang going to the Dark Sea; there’s no need for this.”

“Eh? Fellow Daoist Jiang, that’s the cultivator, right? By the way, how did you know?”

Hearing this, Zhongli said faintly:

“We contacted him about something just now, and he contacted us, saying he was catching Archons in the Dark Sea as… training opponents for his disciples.”

Alice was silent for a long time, then complained:

“These cultivators are really more outrageous than in novels! Isn’t he not an immortal yet?”

“So to speak, you also know that he caught more than thirty Archons in one breath and went to the Sea of Quanta?”

More than thirty… Archons…

Everyone was suddenly a bit melancholy.

I’m afraid that during the Archon War that lasted for so many years, Zhongli hadn’t dealt with so many Archons, right?

“He did say he was going to the Sea of Quanta, but he didn’t say how many Archons he caught, and he didn’t call them Archons, just spirit beasts…”

“Ha! He treats Archons as spirit beasts in the cultivation world? That’s right… Archons look strange, so it’s no problem for him to think so.”

Zhongli was somewhat devastated.

He always felt that Alice was implying something about him.

But asking himself…

His true form was a dignified golden dragon, wasn’t he handsome?

But Alice was still chattering on.

“You didn’t see it! It was so exciting!”

“I was originally in the Dark Sea fighting against the joint siege of two top Archons. Of course, it’s not that I couldn’t beat them, I just needed time, you know time!”

“As a result, he stepped on an immortal sword… no, it seems to be your Summit Shaper, oh! Whatever!”

“In short, he flew to the top of my head with a whoosh and took a look at the two Archons.”

“He said their strength was okay and they looked cute, then slapped them down, and the two Archons were half-dead.”

“Then he swished and put the Archons into his sleeves. I know, this is definitely the legendary ‘Universe in the Sleeve’! It can carry all things!”

“Finally, with another swoosh, he continued to move through the Dark Sea. When he passed an Archon, he slapped it unconscious and took it away.”

“Later, I checked with the Hexenzirkel, and the Archons who often harassed us were missing thirty-two.”

“You can’t imagine it! Morax! Those Archons who were originally arrogant are now all like turtles hiding in their shells.”

“They want to escape the Dark Sea but are afraid of being slapped unconscious and taken away. Now they are all hiding under the sea. I even saw one guy shrink and hide in a crack in the ground.”

“Hahaha! It’s so interesting, Morax! It’s a pity you didn’t see this scene!”

“By the way, remember to help me thank that Fellow Daoist Jiang. With this, our Hexenzirkel can be at peace for a long time, and I can go back to accompany Klee.”

Hearing her old friend’s heartfelt joy, Zhongli was also happy for her.

Although Alice was unreliable, she always guarded the border well, and couldn’t even accompany her own daughter much.

But he had no way; someone had to watch the border.

Now this wave of Jiang Yan, perhaps he just wanted to catch some “spirit beasts” that couldn’t be brought to the table.

But it did indeed liberate Alice.

Thinking of this, Zhongli said softly:

“Congratulations.”

“Hehe! Let’s talk about this when we meet!”

“……Meet???”
