Chapter 557

~8 min read 1,406 words

Does anyone really dare to go to her for services?

Aren't they afraid that while they are being buried, their own ancestors will be snatched away to become ghost generals?

"In short, as long as it is allowed by the Sect Master, it doesn't matter, and everyone trusts them."

"Of course, I'm telling you this just to remind you that if you join Shushan in the future, try not to fight against them."

"The methods of demonic cultivators and ghost cultivators are simply too bizarre."

Hearing this, Himeko nodded solemnly.

Alice pointed far away, pointing to the mountain peak opposite Dazhu Peak.

"That is Fenghui Peak, responsible for artifact refining. It doesn't have a Peak Master for now, and there aren't many Fenghui Peak disciples either."

"However, Cloud Retainer is quite skilled at forging magical artifacts. Ningguang has a Purple-Gold Gourd that was forged by Cloud Retainer, which was later upgraded by the Sect Master."

"A few days ago, it was used to capture Osial, and the effect was quite good."

Himeko was stunned for a moment and said thoughtfully:

"The Purple-Gold Gourd, is it... the one from Journey to the West?"

"You've also read Journey to the West!"

Alice's eyes lit up, and she said somewhat proudly:

"This was my creative idea, a replica modeled after Taishang Laojun's Purple-Gold Red Gourd. The effect is very good."

Himeko looked at Alice with some emotion.

"Elder Alice's imagination is truly amazing."

"You're too kind!"

Alice pointed to another mountain peak with a grin.

"That is Chaoyang Peak. Venti should be the one to introduce this peak; he is the acting Peak Master of Chaoyang Peak."

Venti, who was on the side, blinked and spread his hands:

"No need, right? There's nothing much to say about our Chaoyang Peak. There aren't many disciples, and we mainly focus on formations. We don't have many good things either."

"Tsk... don't listen to his nonsense."

Alice rolled her eyes.

"Chaoyang Peak is good at the way of formations. This guy is also a master of formations. The Twenty-Eight Mansions Demon-Subduing Formation, the Tiangang Ocean-Covering Formation, the Spirit-Gathering Formation, the Seven-Star Spirit-Protecting Formation, etc."

"These are all things he is good at. If the way of formations is used well, one can overcome the strong with the weak; it's very powerful."

Venti waved his hand with a grin.

"Hehe! Keep it low-key, keep it low-key!"

Alice continued:

"That is Luoxia Peak. It doesn't have a Peak Master. The eldest disciple is Baishang. Luoxia Peak studies the lineage of beast taming."

"They use spiritual beasts to fight, but it has only just started, and there won't be any achievements in the short term."

By comparison, Luoxia Peak is slightly weaker, after all, there are no achievements yet.

But this is normal; the cultivation and birth of spiritual beasts is a long process in itself.

Starting from scratch is definitely very slow.

But if you wait for the later stages, when Luoxia Peak is mobilized, ten thousand beasts will follow...

In terms of spectacle and group battles, Luoxia Peak is number one.

None of the Seven Peaks of Shushan are weak.

"These are the four side lineages of the cultivation world, and also the Seven Peaks where the four side lineages of Shushan are located."

"Although these four lineages still have decent combat capabilities, compared to the true main combat Seven Peaks, they are much worse."

Alice let Himeko look at the three mountain ranges furthest away.

"The one on the left is called Xiaozhu Peak. It has no Peak Master for now, but it already has an inner-appointed next Peak Master, the Su-Yin Body, Shenhe."

"Xiaozhu Peak is good at spellcasting and talismans, and its offensive capability is very strong."

"Besides that, it also possesses extremely comprehensive capabilities. Whether it's talismans for support or talismans for suppression, there are many."

"Also, one point worth noting is that only women can join Xiaozhu Peak..."

Himeko was stunned for a moment, and she actually had some interest in Xiaozhu Peak in her heart.

"The one next to it is Longshou Peak, which is also where the Law Enforcement Hall is located."

Alice said somewhat proudly:

"Longshou Peak is currently the Seven Peak with the most people in Shushan. The Longshou Peak Master, Zhongli, is also the strongest after the Sect Master."

"The Law Enforcement Hall has three Law Enforcement Elders, and all disciples who join Longshou Peak are Law Enforcement disciples."

"They are powerful and hold the task of monitoring the words and deeds of Shushan disciples, as well as the responsibility of suppressing external enemies."

"If anyone slanders Shushan or does anything detrimental to Shushan disciples, Longshou Peak will be the first to move out and suppress them."

"Longshou Peak is the first vanguard army of Shushan's external wars."

"Also, the rule of the Law Enforcement Hall is that Shushan disciples can only be judged by Shushan itself. Apart from Shushan, no one else can."

"Even if the other party has committed a massive mistake, it can only be suppressed by Shushan."

"Otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation to Shushan."

Himeko said with some emotion, in a low voice:

"What an overbearing style..."

Alice smiled and didn't argue. Finally, she looked at the tallest and largest mountain range in the very center.

"That is Tongtian Peak, the head of the Seven Peaks of Shushan, and the most important one."

"Tongtian Peak has no Peak Master and is personally managed by the Sect Master. On Tongtian Peak are located important buildings such as the Sect Hall, the Demon-Locking Tower, and the Scripture Library."

"Tongtian Peak's defensive strength is the strongest. If a war occurs and Tongtian Peak is affected, it means the other six peaks have already been wiped out."

"Tongtian Peak is the symbol of Shushan and the place where the peak of power lies."

"At the same time, it is also the peak of the Sword Dao."

"Shushan is also known as the Shushan Sword Sect, the reason being that the people of Tongtian Peak are all powerhouses who are extremely good at the Sword Dao."

After a pause, Alice looked at Himeko, whose eyes were full of yearning, and said softly:

"But joining Tongtian Peak is also the hardest. To enter Tongtian Peak, apart from special reasons, only those with a powerful Sword Dao can do it."

"Tongtian Peak is the Seven Peak personally guarded by the Sect Master, so its strength is naturally the strongest."

"Under its command, there is only one inner-sect elder at the mid-stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, Furina."

"But Tongtian Peak doesn't need elders to show its strength."

"The three great divine bodies of Shushan, the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body Klee, is the Sect Master's direct disciple; the Glazed Sword Heart Ying, and the Star Body Paimon are all Tongtian Peak disciples."

"They inherit the Sect Master's two immortal-level techniques."

"In addition, there are the core disciple Ganyu at the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, the Sword Body Keqing, the Heavenly Charm Body Yae Miko, and Xingqiu, who developed a Sword Heart acquiredly."

"The Heavenly Spirit Root, Furina, the inheritor of the Kingly Way who passed the Nine-Fold Heart Inquiry."

"The disciples of Tongtian Peak are one more powerful and one more genius than the next."

"Therefore, Tongtian Peak is also known as the last line of defense of Shushan."

"If any war happens and Tongtian Peak can't hold it, then Shushan will perish."

Hearing Alice say this, the heat in Himeko's eyes gradually dissipated.

Looking at the towering Tongtian Peak, Himeko sighed.

The inner sect of Shushan is a place where geniuses gather.

And Tongtian Peak is where peerless monsters gather.

She didn't have the confidence that she could have the talent to join Tongtian Peak.

However...

She wasn't picky either; being able to enter the mountain was already a great opportunity.

"Speaking of which, Himeko, are you good at using a sword?"

Suddenly, Alice asked curiously. Himeko thought slightly and asked back:

"What is the concept of being good at using a sword that Elder Alice is talking about?"

"Hmm... how should I describe this."

After Alice pondered hard for a while, she clapped her hands.

"It means having studied the Sword Dao, having your own insights, and even developing your own Sword Dao."

"For example, Keqing and Xingqiu of Tongtian Peak are both masters of the Sword Dao."
