Then, the gatekeeper stepped forward and said with a smile, "Ye Qiu, I knew you would come."
"Senior, I'm not here to find some kind of martial arts technique that doesn't belong to this world. I'm just here to continue looking at other martial arts."
Ye Qiu smiled.
"Whatever, it's fine."
The gatekeeper had a bright smile on his face.
"Then I'll take a look first."
Ye Qiu cupped his hands in greeting and began to wander around the First Pavilion.
The guard closed his eyes, seemingly indifferent, but in reality, he was paying close attention to Ye Qiu's every move.
Ye Qiu appeared to be studying martial arts, but he was actually searching for the possible second volume of the Heavenly Dragon Manual.
An hour later, Ye Qiu was almost certain that if the lower volume of the Heavenly Dragon Manual was in this pavilion, he would definitely be able to find it; if he couldn't find it, then the lower volume was not in the pavilion, or it wasn't in its normal form.
With this in mind, Ye Qiu changed his approach and began to observe some strange symbols in the Number One Pavilion under Heaven that looked like decorations...
At the same time, inside the old hall master's main hall, a young disciple respectfully said, "Hall Master, Ye Qiu has gone to the Number One Pavilion in the World again."
"That kid is indeed restless." The old hall master laughed. "Let him search. You inform the Grand Protector to keep a close eye on the First Pavilion. If Ye Qiu really finds the second volume, that old guy in the pavilion will definitely try to snatch it. At that time, we will suppress him."
"Master, I don't understand. If the gatekeeper isn't a good person, why keep him here? Why not..."
"This matter is extremely serious; we can only suppress it, not kill the perpetrators," the old temple master said.
"This disciple still doesn't understand."
"Because he is the Xia Lord's younger brother, the Xia Lord ordered me to confine him to the Number One Pavilion in the World, so I can only confine him and cannot kill him," the old palace master said quietly.
The young disciple gasped in shock, finally understanding completely.
...
Inside the first pavilion, Ye Qiu examined the strange symbols on the walls and pillars, and the more he looked, the more something seemed off.
These symbols appear to be decorative carvings, but in reality, each one is quite different in shape.
"Could these symbols actually be the second volume of the Heavenly Dragon Manual? Otherwise, it's impossible that the second volume of the Heavenly Dragon Manual is in the pavilion but no one has been able to find it, unless it exists in another form."
After Ye Qiu thought of this, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to memorize all these symbols.
But when Ye Qiu started doing it, he discovered something strange: his photographic memory was greatly diminished when faced with these symbols.
It took Ye Qiu four hours to memorize all of the few hundred ancient symbols.
After memorizing everything, Ye Qiu searched carefully again to confirm there were no other symbols before preparing to leave. (www.Bǐqυgétν.net)
The guard had been watching Ye Qiu's every move. Seeing that Ye Qiu was about to leave, the guard hurriedly asked, "Ye Qiu, did you find anything?"
"I learned a lot from several martial arts techniques."
Ye Qiu smiled.
"I'm referring to another aspect. Have you found any clues about that supreme cultivation technique?" the guardian asked.
"No," Ye Qiu said. "I think the cultivation technique you mentioned is not in this pavilion at all. If it were in this pavilion, it would be impossible not to find it. No matter how well it is hidden, it would be found eventually. So the answer is that there is no such cultivation technique in this pavilion."
"It's impossible that it doesn't exist. The old temple master himself said it definitely does."
The guards' voices rose a few decibels, their emotions running high.
"Then please keep looking, senior. I have to go now."
Ye Qiu waved his hand, intending to leave.
"Wait a minute." The guardian stopped Ye Qiu: "You have to find it, and then we can study it together."
Ye Qiu, I know you are no ordinary person. If you can find it, I will reward you handsomely.
Let me tell you something: I am actually Xia Zhu's younger brother. I am confined here. Only by finding that cultivation technique can I transcend and advance further.
"Then I will be qualified to re-enter the world and return to the court. If you help me, I guarantee you will stand second only to the emperor, overlooking the world's splendor."
Xia Zhu's younger brother?
Upon hearing the words of the gatekeeper, Ye Qiu was genuinely startled.
But Ye Qiu quickly recovered, showing little surprise on his face, and said calmly, "Then I'll come back tomorrow. It's almost dawn, I'll head back now."
After saying that, Ye Qiu left directly.
The gatekeeper stared at Ye Qiu's departing figure, his expression not very pleasant.
He actually had many opportunities to leave the World's Number One Pavilion, but he was unwilling to leave, wanting to find the immortal path.
"Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu, an opportunity to become a future emperor's attendant is right before your eyes. Whether you can seize it or not is up to you."
The guard's eyes were sharp, and his fists were clenched.
Ye Qiu, who had walked a short distance, suddenly sneezed.
He rubbed his nose and muttered under his breath, "Some bastard must have been talking bad about me behind my back. This sneeze..."
