Chapter 809

"Many genius disciples in the past also went to the world sea for training during the Refining Qi into Spirit stage."

"The most typical one is Uncle Mo Yixi, who went to the world sea for training at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, the late stage of Refining Spirit into Void, and the late stage of Refining Void and Combining with Dao."

Everyone knew this; after all, the Nine Nether Secret Realm was a world cut off by Mo Yixi during the Refining Spirit into Void period.

"So, do we have to at least be at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit before we can go out?"

Kiana looked at Jiang Yan with anticipation, her eagerness to try hard to hide.

Exploring and training outside the world was an experience she couldn't refuse.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yan said decisively:

"No, at least the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit."

"Why!"

Kiana was a bit resentful. The late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit was one thing, but rising a small realm was even more troublesome.

It wasn't a leap that could be achieved in a few years.

Jiang Yan said calmly:

"You going out represents Shushan's face, and secondly, Shushan also has to consider your safety."

"At the moment, I will only feel at ease at the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit. After all, no one knows how many worlds the Heavenly Demon Territory has ravaged."

Kiana asked weakly.

"But, couldn't Mo Yixi go out at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit?"

Jiang Yan shook his head and said helplessly:

"At that time, Shushan was prosperous, the heavens and worlds all knew the name of Shushan, and there was no crisis as big as the Heavenly Demon Territory."

"And, who told you that Uncle Mo Yixi's true strength was only at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit?"

Looking at Kiana's confused look, Jiang Yan looked at Huayue.

The latter also understood Jiang Yan's meaning and said with a smile:

"Senior Mo Yixi back then was known as the peerless genius of Shushan who hadn't appeared in millions of years, along with the former Shushan Sect Master Supreme."

"The Shushan Twins were famous top-tier geniuses throughout the cultivation world."

"What's more, the Shushan of that year was the best in the entire cultivation world, even surpassing the Little Leiyin Temple and Jixia Academy, which were also the three giants."

"When Senior Mo Yixi went for training back then, although his cultivation was only at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit."

"But he carried an Immortal sword of the Heaven Immortal level, the Demon-Subduing Sword."

"Coupled with exquisite sword techniques and divine abilities, he could even confront Refining Spirit into Void experts."

"As far as I know, Senior Mo Yixi back then integrated the three great sword techniques of Shushan at the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, which was equivalent to having mastered a Golden Immortal technique."

"What's more, when Senior Mo Yixi went for training, he had a protector by his side, conservatively estimated to be an elder at the late stage of Refining Void and Combining with Dao."

"Naturally, he could train as he pleased without worrying about accidents."

Hearing this, Kiana and the others were stunned.

Kiana, who had just been proud of mastering the Sword-Control Technique and the Monkey King Staff Technique, immediately kept a low profile.

Both at Refining Qi into Spirit, she had just gotten started, while Mo Yixi had already mastered true Immortal sword divine abilities.

Although Kiana also knew that Mo Yixi had been in contact with cultivation since childhood and had much more cultivation time than her.

But she was a divine body…

Even if she couldn't compare to Mo Yixi, at the very least, at the current stage, she should have mastered the Sword-Control Technique.

Kiana couldn't help but feel a bit autistic.

Now, she finally understood that there were many geniuses in the cultivation world, but wanting to stand out from these infinite geniuses.

Just having a divine body wasn't enough.

A genius who works hard is a true genius.

Kiana didn't say anything more. Jiang Yan nodded slightly; perhaps Kiana could cultivate more diligently in the future.

With her talent of the Supreme Void Divine Body, Jiang Yan had great confidence in her.

"It's not that you can't go looking for worlds, but you have to wait until you reach the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit and master enough techniques and possess protective magic treasures."

"Nowadays, the heavens and worlds are all affected by the Day of Dharma Destruction, and the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit is probably close to the limit."

"If you have such strength, I can feel a bit more at ease."

Ningguang and the others nodded heavily.

There was one more reason to work hard.

They definitely had to work hard for more worlds.

Using this as an incentive was also a good way.

Pausing, Jiang Yan continued:

"In short, this matter is basically settled."

"After the Apprentice Recruitment Ceremony ends, act accordingly. As for you, Ningguang…"

"You can prepare to spread the news in advance."

"As for other specific matters, the Heavenly Dao will supplement them for you."

"At that time, if you have any doubts, just consult the Heavenly Dao."

The Heavenly Dao naturally cared about this matter, after all, it concerned its evolution.

"With these matters finished, next is the matter of the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament."

Jiang Yan didn't directly let the demon clans return; anyway, they would be spectators for the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament.

And for the Apprentice Recruitment Ceremony at that time, they would also be the main force.

In Jiang Yan's plan.

The Shushan world evolved into a Great Thousand World, and the seven peaks of Shushan were now excessively large.

A single Dragon Head Peak was larger than the sum of the areas of the Teyvat and Honkai worlds.

And such a large Shushan only had over a thousand disciples, and counting the miscellaneous disciples, it didn't exceed five thousand.

This was really too inappropriate.

It was reasonable for the demon clan population to be small, but when…

The human race and Shushan, which had always been known for their numbers, actually had so few people.

Jiang Yan reopened the Apprentice Recruitment Ceremony this time to increase the number of Shushan disciples to a considerable level.

According to his estimate, the tens of thousands of people living in Shushan Village, plus the tens of millions who passed the assessment in the Honkai world.

Plus the disciples pushed out by the major demon clans of the Shushan world.

This time, it was conservatively estimated that tens of thousands could be recruited.

However, most of them would be outer disciples. As for inner disciples…

It was estimated that it wouldn't exceed five hundred, and core disciples would be even fewer.

Moreover, they would likely be demon clan members.

For the demon clans, Jiang Yan's restrictions weren't very broad.

At most, it was the age requirement.

Jiang Yan required that demon clan members joining Shushan could not be over one thousand years old.

Perhaps this seemed outrageous to Ningguang and the others, but one thousand years…

It was just the age when most demon clan children had just reached adulthood.

Among these clan leaders below, only a few met the requirements.

Like Huayue of the Qingqiu Fox Clan…

According to Jiang Yan's observation, she was about eight hundred years old, but her strength had already reached the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit.

This was already considered a genius.

After all, not everyone had a divine body and opportunities like Klee.

If Huayue replaced Ningguang and the others, she would have already reached Refining Spirit into Void by now.

As for the rest of these demon clan leaders…

Conservatively estimated, the lowest would have to be tens of thousands of years old.

534. A World Competition Accommodating All Demon Clans in the Shushan World

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, looked at these demon clans, and said softly:

"This Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament is of great significance to Shushan; it is the first Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament held after Shushan's reconstruction."
