Chapter 887

~7 min read 1,307 words

“The True Spirit is the meaning of life’s attachment to the root. As long as the True Spirit remains, everything is not a problem.”

“For mortals, one can directly use great magic power to extract the soul from the root and recast the physical body, and they can return to the world.”

“If it is an immortal cultivator, many immortal cultivators themselves master secret techniques of reincarnation and recultivation, or even possessing a new body with a remnant soul.”

“Life-saving means are something all immortal cultivators are proficient in.”

After saying this, Kevin suddenly used his divine sense to suppress Blade, who immediately felt a huge pressure coming from around him, his bones creaking.

But Blade gritted his teeth and said nothing.

A moment later, Kevin withdrew his divine sense and said calmly:

“You want to resurrect your friend and make up for your past mistakes…”

“Yes!”

Blade looked at Kevin with determined eyes.

“Good personality, and talent is also quite good…”

Kevin said in a low voice, murmuring:

“So similar…”

He saw the shadow of an old friend in Blade, which is why he paid him a little more attention.

However, there is no need to be sentimental. When Venti comes out of seclusion, he can go to the Honkai world to resurrect them.

He is not in a hurry for this moment, anyway, life is very long.

“Any other questions?”

Everyone looked left and right, thinking about it, and seemed to have thought of the same question.

A moment later, Hua said softly:

“Elder Kevin, I wonder what the process is for us to join Shushan?”

Before Kevin could answer, Ningguang said with a smile:

“I will answer this question.”

Kevin nodded slightly and closed his eyes to rest.

Everyone’s eyes focused on Ningguang, who said elegantly:

“Nice to meet you, I am Ningguang, a core disciple of Shushan’s Little Bamboo Peak.”

Hearing this, the people from the company felt a stir, and their eyes became a bit eager.

If things go well, this might be their future direct superior.

“To join Shushan, generally speaking, you need to wait for Shushan’s once-in-a-century Mountain Opening Ceremony.”

“However, for the Star Rail universe, this is not necessary.”

“Besides this, there is another way, which is a recommendation from a Shushan inner disciple. If the talent is sufficient, an inner disciple can exercise the right of recommendation to recommend disciples with excellent talent to Shushan.”

“However, since the Sect Master wants to open the mountain to the Star Rail universe, this method is not needed.”

“To join Shushan, you only need to pass the Shushan assessment array, the Nine-Fold Heart-Questioning Array.”

“Passing one fold makes you an outer disciple of Shushan; passing three folds makes you an inner disciple.”

“Passing nine folds gives you a chance to see the Sect Master.”

“The Heart-Questioning Array was personally set up by the Sect Master. Nine folds of heart-questioning, one fold for one lifetime.”

“When you step into the array, you will forget everything: your identity, your story, your purpose, including immortal cultivation.”

“Under the influence of the Heart-Questioning Array, you will live the life the array has arranged for you.”

“A fleeting life…”

“In the Heart-Questioning Array, you need to live again and again, from birth to death.”

“And all of this will happen in the instant you take a step.”

“The Heart-Questioning Array is Shushan’s most mysterious and magical array, a place for refining the heart.”

892. Hua: Are there any tips for the Heart-Questioning Array?

Hearing Ningguang’s introduction, for a moment, everyone couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.

To be honest, at first, when they heard the introduction of the four words “Heart-Questioning Array,” they thought it was something that peered into the heart, and they were somewhat resistant.

After all, who doesn’t have some secrets in their heart when they reach this point? But thinking about it carefully, in the face of immortal cultivators, their little secrets don’t seem to be worth mentioning.

Just like Kevin saw through what Blade was thinking just now, for mortals facing immortal cultivators, there are no secrets.

If they want to see, they can see at any time.

Thinking this through, many people felt a sense of relief.

But facts proved that they were still too young.

What kind of array that peers into the heart? That’s too low-end.

The immortal cultivators’ background check on disciples is much simpler, cruder, and more high-end than this.

It doesn’t matter if you are a deep-scheming person or someone with some ability.

They just throw you in, and in the illusion, let you live a lifetime, or even many lifetimes.

In the repeated reincarnation, you will always be able to show your true heart.

In fact, they explicitly tell you that they want you to live again, but you have no means of resistance.

Entering the array, one returns to zero, and there are no memories from the outside.

What Shushan wants to see is not them after being painted by years of life.

But what that blank sheet of paper, which they are prepared to carry memories on from birth, is really like.

However…

In any case, to enter Shushan, the Heart-Questioning Array must be passed.

It’s just that they really can’t understand why some people can pass several folds in a row.

Even passing nine folds in a row.

To put it bluntly, isn’t that living nine times?

This kind of thing…

“One fold of heart-questioning is just the threshold for Shushan disciples, the foundation for outer disciples.”

“Only above three folds are you qualified to enter the inner sect.”

“Above six folds are disciples that the mountain will focus on cultivating.”

“If it is nine folds… after entering, the Sect Master will naturally summon you.”

“However, Shushan disciples now number in the millions, and those who passed nine folds of heart-questioning when joining Shushan can be counted on one hand.”

“Junior Brother Baizhu is one of them.”

“His firmness of heart is even praised by the Sect Master.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Baizhu, who was not showing off, with some shock. The latter pursed his lips and smiled, saying softly:

“Senior Sister Ningguang is too kind…”

Ningguang shook her head and continued:

“To join Shushan, talent, aptitude, and strength of heart and will are all indispensable.”

“Shushan was once one of the three holy lands of the heavens and myriad worlds, the leader of the righteous path. Now, in the heavens and myriad worlds after the Day of Dharma Destruction, Shushan is the strongest of the righteous path.”

“To join Shushan, naturally, you need talent far exceeding ordinary immortal cultivators. No sect will lack disciples, but the sect’s resources are limited.”

“If you want to be cultivated by the sect with increased effort and heart, you naturally have to show talent far exceeding others.”

“In Shushan, genius is just the foundation, the lowest standard. Genius is just the threshold of Shushan.”

Hua and the others nodded thoughtfully and added:

“Miss Ningguang, regarding the Heart-Questioning Array, are there any tips?”

“Tips?”

Ningguang laughed dumbly, shook her head, and looked at Hua.

“What tips do you want? Or rather, do you think there are any shortcuts that can be used in an array personally set up by the Sect Master, who is the strongest in the heavens and myriad worlds, and which concerns the foundation of Shushan?”

“Could it be that you still want to use some little tricks to deceive the Sect Master’s eyes?”

“I have said it before, no matter what preparations you make, as long as you step into the Heart-Questioning Array, you will forget everything and use your most essential self to welcome every reincarnation.”

“In other words, at that time, you are no different from a newborn baby…”

893. Can outstanding contributions be divided into worlds?
