Chapter 555

However, in her heart, Himeko still remembered the two names, Qingluan and Miss Ganyu.

She hadn't seen Miss Ganyu just now, and looking at it now, this Miss Ganyu seemed somewhat mysterious.

Turning back to look at the seven towering peaks that were still visible, Himeko suddenly spoke up:

"Elder Alice, can you tell me about Shushan?"

332. Himeko, who is in contact with, understands, and longs for cultivation

"Tell you about Shushan?"

Alice glanced at the somewhat serious Himeko, and after thinking for a while, she nodded.

"Alright, which aspect do you want to hear about? If it involves Shushan's secrets, I can't say."

"I'm not sure either... What does Elder Alice think?"

Himeko looked at Alice with anticipation. The latter pinched her chin, thought for a moment, and snapped her fingers.

"Then how about I tell you from the beginning."

"Anyway, you are preparing to join Shushan, so you can learn about some things in advance."

"First, is our Shushan's Nine Practices and Ten Precepts."

"Practice non-action, practice gentleness, practice keeping the feminine and not acting first."

"Practice namelessness, practice stillness, practice all virtues."

"Practice non-desire, practice knowing when to stop, practice yielding."

"The first precept is not to disrespect teachers and elders; the second is not to kill without cause; the third is not to blaspheme heaven and earth; the fourth is not to aid the wicked; the fifth is not to separate people from their kin."

"The sixth is not to harm fellow disciples; the seventh is not to be greedy; the eighth is not to be unfilial; the ninth is not to be lewd, evil, or steal; the tenth is not to be arrogant."

"Any disciple must abide by the Nine Practices and Ten Precepts. If there is any violation, Shushan will hunt them down to the ends of the earth."

"Besides the Nine Practices and Ten Precepts, there are also some regulations within our Law Enforcement Hall regarding rewards and punishments for disciples."

"You will know about these later."

Himeko nodded thoughtfully, firmly memorizing the Nine Practices and Ten Precepts in her heart.

To tell the truth, these precepts had no impact on her.

Seeing that she seemed to have gained something, Alice continued:

"Shushan is a cultivation sect with a very long history, spanning the cultivation world and the Upper Realm."

"It is revered as the leader of the righteous path and the pillar of the Daoist sects."

"In its heyday, the Upper Realm Shushan possessed three Taiyi Ancestors, hundreds of Golden Core powerhouses, and countless Heavenly and Earthly Immortals."

"The cultivation world's Shushan also had many cultivators who had reached the Void Refinement and Dao Integration stage."

"Even the Shushan of the cultivation world is based in the Great Thousand World, controlling countless Middle and Small Thousand Worlds under its command, selecting excellent disciples from these worlds."

"By the way, your world, if I'm not mistaken, counts as a small world that doesn't even compare to a Small Thousand World."

"After all, the universe of the Tree and the Sea is only a Middle Thousand World."

Hearing Alice say this, Himeko was greatly shocked. She had already imagined as much as possible how powerful Shushan was, but she hadn't expected...

Shushan's power exceeded her imagination.

"What a pity... After the Day of Dharma Destruction, the heavens and myriad worlds were wiped out, and everything..."

Alice sighed, looking at the sky with some melancholy.

"Ahem! Elder Alice..."

Venti reminded her at the right time, and Alice hurriedly shut her mouth.

Himeko was somewhat puzzled.

"Elder Alice, what is the Day of Dharma Destruction?"

"This..."

Alice scratched her cheek with a guilty conscience.

"There are some things you don't need to know too much about. You only need to know that this is something even the Sect Master doesn't dare to mention or think about casually."

"It involves existences beyond Taiyi; it cannot be spoken of."

Himeko felt a chill in her heart and hurriedly shifted her attention.

"Shushan is a prestigious righteous sect, standing in the world for who knows how long. Even now, Shushan's foundation is still incomparably deep."

Alice also quickly changed the subject:

"The Nine Nether Secret Realm, the Xuanming World, the Demon-Locking Tower, etc., these are all foundations gifted by our ancestors."

"Especially the Scripture Library, which includes almost ninety percent of the cultivation techniques from ancient times to the present in the cultivation world."

"Today's Shushan is also developing rapidly. As long as the Sect Master is here, Shushan is destined to return to its peak."

Himeko pursed her lips and said softly:

"Elder Alice, I keep hearing you mention the Sect Master. I wonder what kind of person the Shushan Sect Master is?"

"The Sect Master, huh..."

Alice scratched her cheek.

"The Sect Master is a very good person, with a very gentle personality, but you must never anger the Sect Master, otherwise..."

"Let's put it this way: a few days ago, the Teyvat World Will said something wrong and angered the Sect Master, and the Sect Master almost slapped Teyvat to pieces."

"The Sect Master is a peerless genius, an Innate Dao Body that hasn't appeared in the heavens and myriad worlds since ancient times."

"In the future, crossing the tribulation to ascend to immortality and achieving Taiyi is almost a certainty."

"The Sect Master is obsessed with cultivation. Basically, if they aren't cultivating, they are guiding us in our cultivation."

"Right now, the Sect Master has gone to the Demon-Locking Tower to prepare to comprehend the realm of Void Refinement and Dao Integration. After crossing the tribulation, they will be a Void Refinement and Dao Integration cultivator."

"They are about to start preparing for the Immortal Ascension Tribulation."

Alice's explanation was considered detailed, but to Himeko, it was actually just one sentence.

A very good person, loves cultivation, and...

A genius! A genius! A genius!

But at least it counted as valid information, so Himeko nodded, keeping it firmly in her heart.

"The Nine Nether Secret Realm is a place you will explore later, the Demon-Locking Tower is the symbol of Shushan, and that Xuanming World is..."

Himeko suddenly asked another question. Alice blinked and said meaningfully:

"It is the world where demonic cultivators gather, you know."

She had thought it would scare Himeko, but Himeko blinked in confusion.

"Demonic cultivators?"

"..."

Alice had forgotten that Himeko didn't understand what kind of existence a demonic cultivator was at all.

"This... as for demonic cultivators, you can just understand them as a bunch of lunatics."

Alice spread her hands.

"Lunatics who possess the power of cultivation. In order to obtain more powerful strength, they don't hesitate to kill their own relatives and children, slaughter the human race, perform blood sacrifices on kingdoms, and prey upon young girls..."

"In short, they are a group of extreme evildoers who have extinguished their humanity and fallen into the demonic path."

"The 'subduing demons and eliminating evil' that Shushan upholds is also to combat such existences."

Himeko frowned tightly, roughly understanding the meaning of demonic cultivators.

Devils who possess the power of cultivation but have lost their bottom line and become puppets of power.

Then, it was hard to imagine what kind of things they could do.

"This world concerns everyone's future development, so, for the time being, the Sect Master hasn't opened it yet."

"As for the Nine Nether Secret Realm, it is the world where the demon race gathered. It was cut off with a single sword strike by the Wine Sword Immortal, who is Zhongli's master."

"After bringing it back to Shushan, it was used as a place for disciples to train."

"Later, we will head to the Nine Nether Secret Realm. Zhongli went to the Demon-Locking Tower to risk breaking through to the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit, all to kill the Azure Wind Bull, one of the Seven Kings of the Nine Nethers, to avenge his senior brother."

"Only then did he step into the Demon-Locking Tower, risking a breakthrough to the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit."

"Once he breaks through to the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit, with Zhongli's mastery of spells, he can fully kill the Azure Wind Bull."

"Besides... do you know Erlang Shen?"

As Alice spoke, she suddenly smiled mysteriously and looked at Himeko.

The latter nodded and said softly:

"The God of War of the Heavenly Court in the Shenzhou mythological system, the True Lord Erlang Mr.."
