Chapter 877

“The reason the Five Great Spirit Clans are the Five Great Spirit Clans is because they possess the deepest foundations and the most geniuses within their ranks.”

“The most core reason is that people from the Five Great Spirit Clans all have core disciples within Shushan.”

“They have close relationships with the upper echelons of Shushan.”

“Jin Chi, who apprenticed under First Seat Venti; Ao Bing, who apprenticed under Elder Neuvillette; and Shi Gangdang and Heng Niang, who apprenticed under First Seat Zhongli.”

“Hua Ling’er, who apprenticed under First Seat Ei.”

“As well as the Flower Moon Crowd, who serve as Shushan deacons.”

“They are all Shushan’s upper echelon, all core disciples, and all personal disciples of the various elders and first seats.”

“Based on this layer of relationships, the status of the Five Great Spirit Clans is unshakable, because their backers are the most protective upper echelon of Shushan!”

“How protective is Shushan? Simply put, according to the Sect Master’s wife, there was once a sect that bullied the weak and insulted an inner disciple of Shushan.”

“The next day, three Void-Refining and Dao-Combining elders slaughtered their way to that sect and wiped out all the elders and disciples who had insulted that disciple.”

“A massive sect was almost wiped out in a single day.”

“Therefore, Shushan’s protectiveness is famous throughout the heavens and myriad worlds. As long as they follow the Shushan upper echelon, and as long as they don’t commit any principled errors, Shushan will protect them.”

“Because their talent is good enough!”

872. Jing Yuan: The true top-tier forces of the Shushan world are the forces of Teyvat and Honkai.

“To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that our Star Rail universe happened to demonstrate its value this time and caught the Sect Master’s eye.”

“Regarding the crisis of the Xianzhou Foxian race this time, I can guarantee that the Qingqiu Fox Clan would not have received any punishment.”

“Although it is cruel to say so, for Shushan, a talented disciple is more valuable than tens of millions or hundreds of millions of mortals.”

“If it is a Divine Body, as long as they do not fall into the demonic path, even if they destroy a universe, Shushan will help them bear the consequences.”

“This is the most protective sect. Of course, many of you might feel a bit uncomfortable, as it differs from the leader of the righteous path you imagined.”

“But I hope everyone understands that in the world of immortal cultivation, strength is respected. Shushan, as the leader of the righteous path, needs to confront demonic cultivators and Heavenly Demons.”

“No amount of ordinary people can compare to the role a single genius disciple can play.”

“And besides, we ourselves will be the ones enjoying this protection, so everyone doesn’t need to have any thoughts.”

Hearing this, everyone inexplicably felt a bit secretly pleased.

If the protectiveness didn’t extend to them, they would certainly be unhappy, but if they were the beneficiaries…

Truly fragrant!

“So, having said this, everyone should already understand.”

Jing Yuan paused and continued:

“The core of the Shushan world’s true standing is its relationship with Shushan.”

“Then, may I ask everyone, do you really think the Five Great Spirit Clans have the most disciples who joined Shushan?”

“Naturally not.”

Yukong shook her head.

“It is said that there are also Teyvat and Honkai…”

Speaking of this, Yukong froze, and everyone suddenly realized, looking at Jing Yuan with some shock.

“It seems everyone has already figured it out.”

Jing Yuan smiled.

“Admittedly, on the surface, the Five Great Spirit Clans are the most powerful forces, but it seems everyone has deliberately ignored some other very low-key forces.”

“The various nations of Teyvat and the major forces of the Honkai world.”

“If just being a disciple grants such privileges, then as the first seats of each peak…”

Jing Yuan said softly:

“Zhongli, the First Seat with real power of Dragon Head Peak, is in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall. He is one of the three strongest people in Shushan, second only to the Sect Master. Who in the entire Shushan world doesn’t tremble when they hear the term ‘Law Enforcement Hall’?”

“Coincidentally… this First Seat is a Liyue person, and he is the god who once created Liyue and protected Liyue for thousands of years.”

“Venti, First Seat of Morning Sun Peak, is in charge of the Dao of Arrays and is about to break through to Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning. He was once the Anemo Archon of the Teyvat Mondstadt region, who created Mondstadt and brought freedom to the people of Mondstadt.”

“He is the faith of Mondstadt…”

“Ei, First Seat of Wind Return Peak, is in charge of the Dao of Artifact Refining. She was once the Electro Archon of the Teyvat Inazuma region, and likewise… created Inazuma and bestowed eternity upon Inazuma.”

“Elder Neuvillette, one of the three great elders of Heaven-Piercing Peak, is the Chief Justice of Teyvat Fontaine; Elder Furina is the Hydro Archon of Fontaine.”

“Elder Alice of the Law Enforcement Hall was once an elf witch who stayed in Mondstadt for a long time. Her biological daughter and the Dragon Head Peak disciple, the current Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, Jean, have a close relationship. Jean is one of the guardians of her daughter, Klee.”

“Klee, a Mondstadt person, is Elder Alice’s daughter, the recognized little princess of Shushan, the apple of the Sect Master’s eye, the Young Sect Master, and the number one genius.”

“Shenhe, the quasi-First Seat of Little Bamboo Peak, is a disciple of a Liyue adeptus.”

“Big Bamboo Peak has no First Seat, but Big Bamboo Peak has three well-known major forces: Lisa, who burns the sky with karmic fire, is a Mondstadt person.”

“Lishui, who is in charge of spirit field cultivation, is one of the former adepti of Liyue; Baizhu, the number one alchemist of Shushan, is a Liyue person.”

“And this is just Teyvat.”

“The strongest people under the three Shushan Sect Masters are one, Kevin, the World Serpent Lord of the Honkai world, and the other, Elder Fu Hua of St. Freya.”

“At the same time, the St. Freya force also has a Divine Body prodigy, Kiana. On the side of Schicksal, there are two more Divine Bodies, Otto and Durandal.”

“Do you all think that under the influence of these people, the Five Great Spirit Clans are really the most powerful force in the Shushan world, second only to Shushan?”

873. The Star Rail universe also has a bright future.

Watching everyone look as if they had just woken from a dream, Jing Yuan smiled and began to write and draw again.

Feixiao and the others stared intently at Jing Yuan.

Liyue, Mondstadt, Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, Natlan, Snezhnaya…

St. Freya, Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, World Serpent.

When the list of these eleven forces was listed, and the list of the status and talent of the people within those forces in Shushan came out.

Everyone suddenly had an epiphany.

“In the Shushan world, the Five Great Spirit Clans are just the surface! The truly powerful ones that no one dares to provoke are these eleven forces!”

Jing Yuan turned around and looked quietly at the crowd who had suddenly realized.

“This is the tr~ue secret of the Shushan world.”

“Previously, I heard Elder Fu say that in the Shushan world, people of the Spirit Clan are born to cultivate immortality to have a foothold.”

“But there are many mortals in the Shushan world who practice martial arts, or even mortals without any cultivation at all, who can still find work and a place to live in core areas like Shushan City.”

“At that time, I found it strange.”

“After hearing the explanation from the two wives this time, I finally understand.”

“Because these mortals are all subjects of the major forces of Teyvat and the Honkai world.”

“Precisely because of this, those Spirit Clan members dare not take action against them.”

“This also explains why the Spirit Clan people are dismissive of humans from many other worlds, and why they are so polite to the humans of the Shushan world.”

“The humans of the Shushan world are backed by forces truly overseen by the Shushan upper echelon.”

“Unlike the Spirit Clan people themselves who need to find people to build relationships, the guardian gods behind these mortals are themselves existences that the Spirit Clan needs to curry favor with.”

“And the disciples mentioned earlier all have the right to see the Sect Master at any time.”

“And besides these, we have also received an important piece of news.”

Pausing, Jing Yuan said with some shock:

“The Sect Master directly allowed these eleven forces to choose suitable places in the Shushan world to build survival strongholds for their own forces.”

“They can even choose a batch of the countless worlds conquered by Shushan, from middle-thousand to small worlds, to be included in their rule.”

“So, in fact, these eleven forces have already reached out to the heavens and myriad worlds.”

“It’s just that in the short term, they don’t appear obvious, unlike the Five Great Spirit Clans who are so high-profile.”

“Everyone should be very clear about what this means.”

“Teyvat and the Honkai world are highly valued only because these two worlds can provide Shushan with enough genius disciples.”

“Coincidentally, so is our Star Rail universe.”

“The Star Rail universe is highly valued by the Sect Master. In other words, today’s Teyvat and Honkai are our tomorrow.”

“As long as we seize the opportunity, we can also become a massive force in the Shushan world, second only to Shushan, just like them.”

“And even allow our Xianzhou Alliance to formally establish a foothold in the immortal cultivation world and expand our influence toward the heavens and myriad worlds.”

“If it goes smoothly, within a few years, our Xianzhou Alliance will also become a renowned force in the heavens and myriad worlds, rather than being confined to one Star Rail universe.”
