Chapter 664

Kiana was stunned for a moment and breathed a sigh of relief.

Honestly, she thought it would take at least six layers of heart-questioning to become a core disciple.

Suddenly, Jiang Yan looked at Kiana with a smile and said softly:

"The Heart-Questioning Array becomes more difficult the further you go; the difficulty of breaking through from five layers to six layers is harder than walking from one layer to five layers."

"Therefore, do not speculate on the Heart-Questioning Array according to common sense."

Sure enough, she heard it again…

Kiana felt a bit awkward and tried her best to control herself from thinking wildly.

Jiang Yan didn't say anything else and looked at Himeko:

"You know the rest of the process, so I won't say much; go, and after passing the Heart-Questioning Array, come find me at the Sect Hall."

Himeko bowed respectfully and left quickly with Theresa and the others.

It's just that, currently, Fu Hua's soul is constantly recovering on Himeko's side, and it will take some time to restore.

Kallen also needs three days to wake up; they can't just let them go to the Heart-Questioning Array together, right?

If something goes wrong, it would be too late to cry.

Otto was also worried about Kallen and pondered for a moment; before he could speak, Himeko said softly:

"Follow me to my cave dwelling first to settle Fu Hua and Kallen, and then go to the Heart-Questioning Array."

Otto breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Major Himeko."

Himeko glanced at Otto, took everyone onto the Rainbow Bridge, and said calmly:

"I didn't tell you before because it wasn't the right time, but now it's time to remind you."

"Since the Sect Master allowed you to go to the Heart-Questioning Array, and it's three or five layers at a time, it means your aptitude is indeed qualified to become inner disciples."

"Since that's the case, you should also learn about the rules of Shushan in advance."

"In Shushan, when facing fellow disciples with higher cultivation than yourself, you must call them Senior Brother or Senior Sister."

"When facing elders and peak masters, you cannot call them by their names directly."

"It doesn't matter how you address each other outside of Shushan, but inside Shushan, it must be managed."

"In other words, just like when you join Shushan, with your cultivation."

Himeko glanced at Otto and curled her lips.

"You have to call me Senior Sister."

"No problem, Senior Sister Himeko."

Otto nodded with a smile, without any hesitation.

"Teacher Himeko, do I have to call you Senior Sister too?"

Kiana scratched her cheek and said foolishly:

"Then Auntie isn't as strong as me now, does she have to call me Senior Sister too!"

Himeko was greatly shocked by Kiana's train of thought, but Theresa's face had already turned as black as charcoal, staring at Kiana, wishing she could take out Judah and slap her.

But…

Kiana is indeed very strong now; if her cultivation is really higher than her own, then wouldn't…

While she was pondering, Himeko slapped Kiana and said angrily:

"Rebellious! If you dare to do that, the Law Enforcement Hall will definitely throw you into the Demon-Locking Tower."

"The Nine Lines and Ten Precepts of Shushan clearly state that those who are disrespectful to teachers and elders, unfaithful, and unfilial will be punished with the death penalty."

"Lightly, cultivation will be abolished and you will be expelled from Shushan; heavily, you will be thrown into the Demon-Locking Tower, regardless of life or death."

As she spoke, Himeko pointed to the tall tower that had just passed by and said calmly:

"That is the Demon-Locking Tower, one layer is one world."

"Entering the Demon-Locking Tower, one day outside is one year inside; with your ability, I'm afraid you wouldn't even survive two days."

Hearing this, Kiana shrank her head and said weakly:

"Just a joke! Don't be so serious, Himeko!"

"The Law Enforcement Hall doesn't joke with you."

Himeko rolled her eyes and complained:

"I am a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall myself; you said that in front of me, you are truly bold, Kiana."

Kiana stuck out her tongue and learned a lesson in her heart.

Before long, everyone followed Himeko to her cave dwelling.

After the world evolution, Himeko's cave dwelling also became a blessed land.

This is a stone house nested in the mountain, with many fresh flowers planted in the courtyard.

Everyone followed Himeko across the wooden door into the stone house, only to find that it was a world of its own.

It was not smaller than Lisa's cave dwelling at all.

Moreover, Himeko's cave dwelling had a point that Lisa's couldn't reach.

… Seeking flowers …

Himeko didn't have enough storage rings; the ones she used to collect resources from the Dragon Palace before were borrowed on credit from Ningguang.

Storage rings and the like are expensive, and Himeko was too lazy to buy them.

She just threw the most precious magic treasures and pills into the ring to carry with her.

The remaining ordinary treasures and spirit stones were thrown into her cave dwelling.

Anyway, every disciple's cave dwelling is engraved with Shushan's array; unless the peak master, elder, or sect master takes action, no one can enter without permission.

But those people don't look down on these things anyway.

Come to think of it, it's quite safe and convenient to put them in the cave dwelling.

If nothing else, even if you don't buy a Spirit-Gathering Array, the spiritual energy emitted by these tens of millions of spirit stones piled up like a mountain is already equivalent to the effect of a medium-sized Spirit-Gathering Array.

0 0 …

But if we talk about the most important effect right now…

As soon as they entered the door, they saw the spirit stones that were half the size of a small mountain hundreds of meters high, and the spiritual energy gathered almost into mist.

It shone under the blue sky, as if a divine mountain was shining.

Only after truly understanding cultivation and spirit stones could everyone understand more and more what this pile of things Himeko had represented.

To use a description that would let them understand…

As soon as they opened the door, they saw thousands of tons of gold in Himeko's house…

This can't be described as just rich!

Digging a shovel from this pile of spirit stones with a shovel could buy all of their lives.

There were many low-grade spirit stones, but the top layer also had medium and high-grade spirit stones.

Saying tens of millions of spirit stones is definitely an underestimate; a conservative estimate is nearly one hundred million.

And this is just spirit stones; various jade bottles containing pills were scattered on the ground.

Occasionally, a jade bottle would be opened, and the fragrance emitted would make people feel refreshed and their strength surge as soon as they smelled it.

The miscellaneous magic treasures were mostly magic tools, but occasionally some low-grade spiritual weapons were displayed.

Looking into the distance, one could also see a large array, and inside the array were various huge fierce beasts and demon beasts piled up messily.

A place to sleep…

No, only a cold jade bed, vaguely showing shadows of someone having lived there.

Various heavenly treasures were scattered around the bed, and various spiritual medicines could be seen everywhere, thrown on the ground.

It made everyone's heart ache.

Himeko also seemed to notice that her house was a bit messy and felt a bit awkward.

But there was no way; she really wasn't a person with a talent for housework.

In the past, it was all because Mei was there.

"That… it's a bit messy; I left in a hurry before and didn't have time to clean up, just make do."

461. Prepare to undergo the tribulation, Kiana

Einstein and the others took a deep breath and said sadly after a while:

"What a waste of heavenly treasures…"
