Chapter 554

"You just need to practice with peace of mind. With your talent, perhaps you don't need to wait for him to find you, you can go to the immortal cultivation world with me to suppress him."

Zhongli sighed. He originally thought there was some scheme that could delay him, but now it seems...

The guy has enough strength and doesn't play schemes with them at all.

So, the immortal cultivation world values strength above all else...

"Headmaster, what will happen if you are absorbed by the Evil Sword Immortal?"

Suddenly, Ningguang asked the most critical question.

Jiang Yan pondered slightly and shook his head:

"Evil thoughts themselves are a part of living beings. Being absorbed by evil thoughts, living beings are no longer complete. Plus the five desires of Greed, Anger, Lust, Evil, and Hatred, all are absorbed. The entire immortal cultivation world is probably already full of walking dead."

"A world without desire, what do you think it will be like?"

"Children don't hate or grieve because their parents are killed, and parents don't feel pain when killing their own children."

"What do you think of such a world?"

Hearing this, everyone was horrified...

Everyone is avoiding talking about desire, but desire itself is a part of human beings.

It is the reason why life is life.

Even crows know to repay their mothers for their hard work.

Losing this desire...

Can life still be considered life?

"The Evil Sword Immortal and the Heavenly Demon Ridge are devastating existences for any living being in the immortal cultivation world."

"They devour desire, perhaps not for the sake of killing, but in a world without emotion, killing must be the main theme."

"Such a world is already dead..."

Ei couldn't help but think, if she lost her desire and emotion, death would not be able to touch her at all...

Suddenly, a chill surged into Ei's heart.

Can such a self still be considered a life?

It sounds like the Evil Sword Immortal and the others are not like demonic cultivators who poison the world, but...

these strange things are even more terrifying than demonic cultivators.

"Alright, don't think too much. This is not an enemy you can deal with."

Jiang Yan waved his hand and said helplessly:

"Even the current Heavenly Demon Ridge probably has Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit everywhere, and there are many Refining Spirit and Returning Void."

"Now that Shushan is weak, we can only temporarily hibernate and restore our vitality."

Saying this, Jiang Yan didn't want to talk more about this topic, and looked at Miko and Xiao, chuckling:

"Although I didn't come back in time for your tribulation crossing, being able to see that you have successfully crossed the tribulation immediately after returning,"

"is the best news I've received during this time."

If it were before, Miko and Xiao might have been happier, but now that they think about the Evil Sword Immortal, the two of them couldn't be happy no matter what.

And...

Jiang Yan still has injuries on his body.

Thinking of this, Miko felt even more distressed.

"Since you have reached Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit, it is no longer appropriate to continue as inner disciples."

"Miko, Xiao, from today on, you are promoted to core disciples."

As the words fell, the disciple tokens of the two bloomed with light, evolving into the same appearance as Ganyu's.

The two hurriedly adjusted their moods and bowed:

"Thank you, Headmaster!"

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and looked at Ei and Himeko and the others standing at the end.

His gaze swept over and stayed on Himeko for a moment.

He chuckled again:

"It seems that during the time I was away, Shushan also had quite a few geniuses."

Alice stepped forward and said:

"Headmaster, Inazuma's matter, Lumine has already solved it. This Murata Himeko, I brought back from the Dark Sea, is a person from the Honkai world."

Jiang Yan naturally recognized Himeko, but at the moment, he still looked at Lumine and nodded with satisfaction after observing for a while.

"A few true meanings of the Divine Sword Art of Thunder, it seems you have already understood."

Lumine smiled and nodded:

"I used it once in Inazuma, but the simplified version of the Divine Sword Art of Thunder is also very difficult to control."

"This is natural."

Jiang Yan nodded slightly, pondered for a while, and said softly:

"It just so happens that the Nine Nether Secret Realm Exploration Conference is coming up. Go and practice in it. If you can master the simplified version of the Divine Sword Art of Thunder,"

"when you return, I will pass the Heavenly Sword Art, one of the three great divine swords of Shushan, to you."

Hearing this, Lumine was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you, Headmaster, please rest assured, Headmaster!"

Jiang Yan looked at Klee again, who was looking at him with eyes wide open, her big eyes somewhat red. It seemed that she had also been scared just now.

Jiang Yan's expression was gentle, and he beckoned.

"Little Klee, come here."

"Master!"

Klee immediately ran into Jiang Yan's arms with her short legs.

"Klee is very worried about Master..."

367. Ei and Himeko, pass the Heart-Questioning Array together

"Master is fine, look, isn't Master healthy?"

Jiang Yan pinched Klee's nose and picked her up to weigh her.

"Hmm... it seems you have been practicing hard, you are almost breaking through to the late stage of Refining Essence and Transforming Qi, not bad."

For Klee, it had only been ten days since she last saw Jiang Yan.

But for Jiang Yan, it had been almost twenty years.

He hadn't seen Klee for so many years, and he missed her quite a bit.

"Continue to practice hard for a while. When you break through to Refining Qi and Transforming Spirit, Master will pass the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations to you."

Klee nodded, sitting obediently beside Jiang Yan and hugging his arm.

It wasn't that Jiang Yan didn't want to pass the Samadhi True Fire to Klee.

But that thing is a divine ability, it cannot be taught by words, and can only let Klee find a way to awaken it.

Moreover, the Samadhi True Fire itself is a divine ability that can only be mastered by great powers above the Golden Immortal level. Even if Klee has the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body, she must cultivate to Refining Void and Combining Dao.

Jiang Yan settled Klee, then looked at Ei and the others, and beckoned.

Ei and the others stepped forward.

Looking at Jiang Yan, who was like a speck of dust between heaven and earth, but only felt a distant gaze looking down from outside the world.

Ei was dazed for a moment and bowed:

"The second-generation Raiden Shogun of Inazuma, Raiden Ei, meets the Shushan Headmaster."

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and chuckled:

"Do you want to join the Shushan Sect?"

Ei nodded decisively.

"Yes, Headmaster."

"Do you know the rules?"

Jiang Yan asked again. Miko on the side said:

"Headmaster, I recommended Ei and the others."

As soon as the words fell, Alice also spoke:
