Chapter 819

As for dynasties and the like...

For the time being, no one has such a plan; if the seven nations of Teyvat develop, perhaps there will be a chance.

But that is also a very distant plan.

For now, the management of Shushan City is handled by some outer sect elders who take turns substituting.

After all, those currently cultivating are basically people from Shushan, and the demon races certainly cannot become the city lords of Shushan City.

Jiang Yan's plan is that when the Shushan world is vibrant in the future, and the basic cultivation qi-inducing methods are spread, and cultivation sects attached to Shushan are born,

then those sects can be allowed to manage the cities.

Doing this, firstly, ensures the belonging of Shushan City, the holy land closest to Shushan.

Secondly, it is also to prevent Shushan disciples from wasting time on such matters.

Thirdly, it can just happen to ensure the supremacy of Shushan.

Shushan will become the cultivation holy land of this world, and even the heavens and myriad worlds; naturally, its mystery and supremacy must be ensured.

Just like Shushan in the past, Shushan disciples were rarely seen in the cultivation world, but the cultivation world never forgot Shushan.

Mentioning Shushan, even a child who had just learned to speak would say with longing that it was the true holy land.

This was the old style of the three major righteous leaders of the cultivation world in the past.

Only in this way can one possess a continuous stream of genius disciples.

To be honest, having a routine that can be directly copied is quite convenient.

As for those demon races who came on their own...

To be precise, they should be the Spirit Race.

Now their power in the cultivation world is second only to Shushan, and there are no other human powers.

Shushan's tenet is to subdue demons and eliminate evil.

Whether for the sake of sounding good, or for finding geniuses from other worlds later, a good-sounding name like Spirit Race is always better than Demon Race.

Anyway, whether it is a spirit beast or a demon beast, the rules for distinguishing them are also very vague.

In the cultivation world, one still has to look at strength.

This is also an unspoken operation of various races.

They are attached to Shushan, so they have a backer; whoever dares to say they are a Demon Race is slapping Shushan in the face.

If anyone in the clan violates Shushan's rules, then they are demons.

To put it bluntly, those who are obedient are Spirit Race spirit beasts, innate beings born of heaven and earth; those who are disobedient are demons who have become bandits.

In fact, the cultivation world in the past did the same thing.

As for these Spirit Races, as an old-fashioned group in the cultivation world, they know too well what they should do after finding a big backer.

First, it is to plan their own territory within Shushan City, letting a portion of the geniuses in the clan station here.

Firstly, they can be close to Shushan, with more opportunities and more resources.

Secondly...

It can also be considered as hostages, showing that they have no other thoughts and are very obedient.

Jiang Yan might not care, but they dare not gamble on whether Jiang Yan will mind.

Studying the minds of the strong is a very popular discipline in the cultivation world.

If studied well and if one licks happily, the things people give away casually are supreme treasures to them, and they are safer in this world.

However, one cannot study it too thoroughly...

Any strong person hopes to have a sensible follower by their side, but one who plays the fool when they shouldn't be sensible.

The cultivation world...

also has the social system of the cultivation world.

These are all accumulated over countless years; Lady Ningguang and the others still have a long way to go to learn.

544. The Cultivation City of the Shushan World

The current Shushan City is filled with a rich and lively atmosphere.

Beings from different worlds, and even different races, are living here quite friendly and harmoniously.

Right at the foot of Shushan, naturally, no one dares to play any tricks.

Among them, the happiest are the Valkyries of the Honkai world.

In this world, a force that compensates for the loss of vitality permeates every moment; it is said that this is the so-called spiritual energy.

But in any case, this force allows these tormented Valkyries to regain their vitality.

Staying in this world for a while longer can reduce the erosion of their artificial stigmata to the minimum.

If they lived here all the time, wouldn't there be no so-called artificial stigmata erosion?

What if they were cultivating?

Not only would they not have to worry about being eroded to death by Honkai, but they could also be as strong as Miss Himeko and the others?

With this mentality, the Valkyries are the most eager to join Shushan.

As for Honkai...

It is said that it has completely disappeared; at least that's how it looks now.

However, even if it didn't disappear, judging by the strength shown by Theresa and the others that they saw, it seems there is no need to worry about any Honkai.

For now, what is more interesting is indeed everything novel in this world.

However, for these Spirit Races, it is a bit of a headache.

In the past, in the cultivation world, when they walked in the cultivation world, although they would be curious, those were just some children.

Mature cultivators wouldn't even look at them twice.

But coming to this world, to be precise...

After these Valkyries came to this world, they suddenly discovered that being watched all the time is not a very good experience.

Besides these Spirit Races and Valkyries who are going to participate in the Disciple Acceptance Ceremony.

Miss Kiana and the others are also very curious about this place.

After all, it is the first city in the true sense with the style of a cultivation world.

Therefore, Miss Ying and Miss Kiana and the others also came here early, curiously wandering around.

Many people know their identities, but this doesn't mean that many people will come up to watch.

They are not celebrities.

The Disciple Acceptance Ceremony officially begins in the afternoon; now, they still need some time to get familiar with this place.

On the other side, Tighnari, Alhaitham, and Dehya have also brought Nahida and others, who had temporarily stabilized Sumeru, to Shushan Village.

This time, they were introduced by Tighnari and the others, and they are the people who are going to go through the Heart-Questioning Array together.

Besides them, there are other people.

For example, the Rich Man and others from the original Fatui, Razor and Bennett from Mondstadt...

Arataki Itto and Kuki Shinobu from Inazuma...

Sigewinne and Wriothesley from Fontaine...

And Xiangling and the others from Liyue.

Basically, taking advantage of this time, Lady Ningguang and the others also discussed bringing everyone with talent who could join Shushan through the internal channel.

However, Lady Ningguang and the others didn't go to pick up people themselves; they just entrusted Tighnari and the others to bring them along the way.

This large group of people has different styles, but in this Shushan City, they are not special existences.

They didn't even get much extra attention; at most, they were just curious about core disciples like Tighnari and the others.

The Spirit clans are all sharp-witted; once they knew of the existence of these core disciples, they paid a bit more attention to the people they brought along.

But they wouldn't pay too much attention; after all, no one wants to be stared at and sized up all the time.

Taking advantage of the time, Tighnari and the others also introduced the current situation to the others.

"For the Disciple Acceptance Ceremony in the afternoon, besides the people from the Honkai world, there are also many Spirit Race disciples."

"However, there is no requirement for the number of people for this Disciple Acceptance Ceremony, and even if there were, it has nothing to do with you who were introduced."

"So, you can be more at ease."

"Of course..."

Tighnari looked at the crowd and said again:

"Afterwards, the Shushan world will officially allow Teyvat people who meet the standards to move over, and in this world, continue to build the seven nations."
