Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 77: Mysterious Library
Standing in front of a dilapidated wooden house, Wang Chen's eyes were filled with deep doubt.
"This is it. You can enter the academy for a month. When the time is up, you will be automatically teleported out. If you are outside the academy, you can leave on your own. This way, I won't delay your reading time."
The young scholar who led the way was very polite, and at the end he bowed and performed a scholar's salute.
Wang Chen returned the gift.
The scholar then left.
The shabby room before me seemed to have been uninhabited for years, with peeling paint and broken window panes. What was even more strange was that the eaves were covered with spider webs. When I looked up, I saw that even some of the tiles on the roof had been torn off.
This academy behaves strangely, and even the rooms are weird. Is this really the all-encompassing academy that Chen Shushu mentioned?
He doubted that a horror movie could be shot here without any setup.
Pushing the door open, the two wooden doors made strange creaking sounds as if they could not bear the weight, but it was still pitch black inside.
As Wang Chen stepped in, the surrounding scene changed instantly.
A pitch-black darkness appeared without warning, and a faint flash of light was seen before it returned to the pitch-black darkness.
At the same time, Wang Chen felt that the gravity here was abnormal, and the true energy around him was trapped in a thick quagmire.
"Is this a huge storage space? Impossible. Storage spaces cannot accommodate living things."
He looked back and reached out to touch again, but the door he had just entered was no longer there. He felt a spatial fluctuation, as if his spiritual consciousness was exploring a storage ring.
"Is there such a magical power in the cultivation world that can form a small world of its own?" Wang Chen felt that this space was beyond his understanding.
I tried to take a few steps forward, and suddenly a book appeared in front of me, floating in the air and emitting a dim light.
He stretched out his hand and wanted to flip through the book, but the book seemed to have a life and disappeared into the darkness with a whoosh.
"Books can move?" Wang Chen was a little surprised and continued to walk forward.
Along the way, he saw several books. Without exception, when they saw Wang Chen, they flew away like mice seeing a cat.
There were some books that were crawling on the ground at a snail's pace, as if they were trying to escape, and were finally picked up by Wang Chen.
"Miscellaneous Notes of Guangling", "Two or Three Things about Cultivation", "Anecdotes of Demonic Beast Identification"... are all ordinary books of information, and the handwriting is illegible. Even though Wang Chen does not have much research on the writings of cultivators, he can see that this kind of handwriting does not have any charm of great writers.
The content may have its own value, but in Wang Chen's opinion, it is far inferior to Chen Shushu's evaluation of this place.
Carefully putting back these slow-moving books and watching them disappear into the darkness, Wang Chen seemed to understand the rules here a little.
"The faster the books here run, the more authentic and rare their contents are."
He thought this guess was very likely.
"Is there any magic formula passed down?"
This guess was instantly denied by him. If there really was a secret code of inheritance in this book club, it was estimated that all the major sects would definitely take over this strange space.
He was not in a hurry to read the book. One month was neither long nor short. He could gain more benefits by figuring out the rules here first.
Moreover, it seems that the books here move by themselves, chaotically and without rules. Even if you use the escape speed to judge the value of the book, the faster the book runs, the less likely it is that you need it.
For example, if the information you urgently want to know is about the Six Paths Sword and the problem of not making any progress in spiritual practice, you may search through all the books but still not find any content on this topic.
After a moment, he finally caught a book as swift as a bird in the mortal world.
Wang Chen flipped through "Xiujian Guanglu" slowly. It recorded the secrets hidden in many ordinary things, as well as some basic descriptions of the inheritance of magic formulas. It was a rare resource.
But he was still not satisfied. If he had a choice, he would naturally want to spend a month on the most precious books.
Let the book go.
Wang Chen lowered his body slightly and took a deep breath. He raised his head, his eyes were like stars in the darkness. He kicked his feet suddenly and rushed forward as a shadow.
I would like to ask, which is faster, the proud boy running wildly or the book? !
the answer is……
Book fast...
The effect of running at full speed was obvious. He moved very quickly, but also made a lot of noise. These books, as cunning as foxes, were able to discover him faster and run very fast.
Wang Chen was depressed, so he stopped what he was doing decisively and held his breath.
However, the Breath-Concealing Technique was aimed at living things, and these books somehow sensed it, so Wang Chen couldn't get close.
Trapping, raiding, pouncing, all the methods were exhausted, but still no one could catch the faster flying books.
"Am I really only able to read those more ordinary books?" Wang Chen was speechless. At the same time, he felt his breathing was a little rapid. This was because his true energy was restricted.
"Come on, you're almost catching it!" Xiaoyao had never seen Wang Chen so embarrassed before, and he was in high spirits, as if he was watching a calico cat chasing a nimble bird.
After giving Xiaoyao a dissatisfied look, Wang Chen was suddenly stunned, as if he thought of something, and slowly turned around to look at the little guy's happy face.
"What are you doing!" Xiaoyao was stunned.
Wang Chen said nothing and strode forward. A book was startled and flapped its wings, trying to fly away, but he suddenly pointed his finger downwards.
Xiaoyao rushed out, hugged a book tightly, and fell down.
Heaven and earth live together?
She couldn't remember how long it had been since Wang Chen had used this magical power. She was a little dazed and didn't understand what was going on.
Wang Chen stretched out his arm and grabbed the book, his eyes filled with delight. He didn't expect that Xiaoyao's useless magical power could still be of some use?
Thank God and thank the earth!
Without taking a closer look, he let the book go and continued walking forward.
The dark space blocked Wang Chen's five senses, but at the same time, these books would only flee in panic when Wang Chen saw them.
This resulted in them all being caught by Xiaoyao the moment they saw Wang Chen, unable to move at all.
Wang Chen was overjoyed. He was sure that most of the people who entered Mo Wen Book Club did not have such means. How could they catch a book flying at high speed even when their true energy was almost completely suppressed!
A book was floating in the darkness before my eyes. As the pages opened and closed slightly, some faint yellow light patterns flickered.
Suddenly, a human face emerged from the darkness. The book seemed to be frightened and turned into a stream of light and wanted to fly away, but it only felt its body sink and fell to the ground.
"It's you!" Wang Chen's eyes lit up. The book's reactions and movements were too fast, forcing him to release the Heaven and Earth Longevity in advance. At this time, he almost had to crawl to barely reach the book.
Guangyuan Tongjianlu? Wang Chen flipped open the book, and there was a faint sound of chanting and reciting between the lines. "Is this the writing becoming a spirit?"
Wang Chen recognized the extraordinaryness of the book at a glance and sat down cross-legged to read it carefully.
The entire book records the secrets of the Guangyuan world over the past two thousand years. Just as the saying goes, every generation has its own talented people, Wang Chen witnessed the rise and fall of sects and the peerless demeanor of heroes and strong men in the book.
And every time a page is turned, the scene, fight, and magic formula on that page will unexpectedly transform into a three-dimensional picture and emerge, which is more intuitive and real, making Wang Chen exclaim that it is worth the hard work to enter the book club.
The books here are obviously all about anecdotes, which explains why the major sects have no interest in these books.
But for Wang Chen, the two questions that he needs to answer most right now are related to experience.
However, this book is very thick and the content is very broad. If you want to read it carefully, it will take at least 20 days.
That is to say, in one month, one can only finish reading one copy of such an excellent book.
He flipped through a few pages at random and found no content related to the Six Paths Sword and Dao Fruit cultivation. He couldn't help but feel a little unsatisfied.
"Since you want to read it carefully, you should read the best ones. Otherwise, it would be unfair to Xiaoyao's magical power."
Perhaps in such a special environment, there will not be another book-catching expert like him in a hundred or a thousand years.
The burden on my shoulders is really heavy.
"The fastest and best book here..." Wang Chen suddenly remembered something and stood up suddenly, holding the book he had finally captured.
