Chapter 493 Visiting the Library
Zhong Ling'er's hands were shaking, and she pointed at Bai Ze in disbelief. "So you are such a beast. Guangyuan Immortal Venerable is so good to me, how can I rob him? We still have to meet in the future. As for eating spiritual beasts, am I such a greedy person? I came here to do serious business."
Bai Ze rolled his eyes at Zhong Ling'er and asked sincerely, "You said you wanted to do something serious, so what is your serious business?"
"Of course I'd walk around, take a look, and learn more about the situation."
Zhong Ling'er asked curiously: "But how do you know what's there? Are you familiar with this place?"
Unexpectedly, Bai Ze nodded and said, "I came here a long time ago. This is the Lijiao Dojo. I know their ancestor."
Zhong Ling'er asked hurriedly, "Then do you know where the Lijiao library is?"
What she needs most now is to learn the Taoism of the fairy world, especially the formation of formations. The Lijiao has a long history and profound foundation, and it seems that it has accumulated a lot in the field of formations.
Bai Ze showed up, pointed in a direction and said, "Follow me."
Zhong Ling'er's soul naturally couldn't move fast here. Bai Ze picked up Zhong Ling'er and appeared outside a pavilion in just a few teleportations.
Hiding beside a stone tablet, the two heard the boys chatting while sweeping leaves.
"The leader is talking about the Dao, and we are left behind again!"
"We can just slack off now. Besides, it's useless for us to go. The leader wants to select disciples to participate in the Immortal Realm Competition a hundred years later. We have no chance."
"I heard that this competition will re-determine the ownership of the small world. Do you think the eight major sects can agree to it?"
"Who knows? Anyway, we don't have to worry about it. We just need to guard the library well."
"We'll open the formation in a moment, so no one can get in. Why don't we go and watch the fun?"
The two smiled at each other, and stopped sweeping the floor. Instead, they used magic to clear away the fallen leaves.
Bai Ze immediately carried Zhong Ling'er into the library, and then saw a formation rune rising up. The doors and windows of the entire library were closed and restricted, turning it into a closed space.
Zhong Ling'er looked into the library. It was indeed one of the three major sects. The richness of its collection of books far exceeded Zhong Ling'er's imagination.
Needless to say, the shelves are full of books, some are stacked against the walls, some are piled on the ground, and except for the main paths, almost everything is occupied by books.
"Bai Ze, why are the books of the Li Sect placed like this? It doesn't look like a great sect at all."
Zhong Ling'er couldn't help but criticize, saying that the library of their Taiqiong Sect was not at all neat and tidy. It was obvious that no one took care of it seriously.
When Old Ji came out and saw so many books, he was also stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but say, "This should be because all the private collections have been collected and they haven't found the time to sort them out yet. The books on the shelves are all neatly arranged, and there must be someone in charge."
Zhong Linger's eyes lit up. Private book collections refer to books that are bought, copied, or stolen by individual members of the sect. In short, the books are obtained by the sect members themselves, and sometimes they also contain personal insights into cultivation.
Every year the sect would collect these books for a few days and ask disciples to copy them and put them in the library to be passed down as the sect's heritage.
Of course, some people may not want to hand over their unique skills, but most people will make selfless contributions to show their loyalty to the sect.
If she really gets to the day to hand in her private collection of books, she will make a fortune.
"Old Ji, there are too many books. If you can't remember them all, you can start by memorizing the books on formations, space magic, and time magic."
Lao Ji said solemnly: "Don't worry, it's a rare opportunity to come here, I will try my best to remember all the books here."
Bai Ze was speechless. He had memorized all these books in less than three days. He didn't know what these two people were thinking. He could only give them spiritual support.
Zhong Ling'er was unwilling to give up, and released all the living beings in her sea of consciousness.
"Hurry up, everyone, get moving. Each of you should carry a few books to help Old Ji share the burden."
The ginseng spirit led the magic flower spirits out, thinking that they didn't have to memorize since they couldn't read. As a result, Zhong Ling'er found a few medical books and asked them to write down the growth diagrams of the herbs.
Zhong Ling'er was not idle either. She ran to the second floor to read a book on drawing talismans. Because talismans were difficult to remember and people who didn't understand them had no way of remembering them, she had to do it by herself.
Time slipped away quietly, and when Lao Ji came over dazed, it was already dawn again.
"You wrote it all down?"
Lao Ji burped and said, "I've written down 80% of it. The rest are some biographies. I can't do it anymore. Let me go back and rest."
Zhong Ling'er took Lao Ji back into her sea of consciousness and found all the living beings again.
Bai Ze looked at the array runes outside and asked Zhong Ling'er, "Can you understand this array?"
Zhong Ling'er turned around twice and breathed a sigh of relief. "This is a protective formation. You can leave but not enter. So it doesn't matter if you don't understand it. We can just walk out directly."
Is it possible? Bai Ze moved his head closer to Zhong Ling'er to sense her luck. She was indeed very lucky. No wonder she was so lucky.
Holding Zhong Ling'er in his mouth, Bai Ze quickly brought her back to the Taoist temple of Immortal Guangyuan.
Zhong Linger was also tired of reading, so she began to appreciate the surrounding scenery. This place was not much different from the big sects in the world of immortal cultivation, except that the materials of all objects were of better texture, and were harder and glossier.
A white pavilion not far away attracted Zhong Ling'er's attention.
She walked over to examine it carefully, touching it again and again, and then said to Qingxuan in her sea of consciousness: "Take a look, does this material look similar to your jade puppets?"
"Not similar, but exactly the same. I didn't expect the Li Sect to be so extravagant, using the best refining materials to build a pavilion. It's really a waste of natural resources."
Zhong Ling'er rolled her eyes and said, "Since they are so wasteful, why don't we take it and make the best use of it?"
Bai Ze and the other spirits were speechless. Didn’t they say they would not rob people?
"Alas, you can't always think about taking other people's things. Only bad people's things can be taken casually. Guangyuan Immortal Venerable is a good person. I can exchange with him."
The spirits were silent, unable to think of what Zhong Ling'er could use to exchange with Immortal Master Guangyuan. Their intuition told them that it was definitely not the spiritual power cannon.
Zhong Ling'er was thinking about how to take such a large pavilion away. Her storage ring could not hold the things from the fairy world, and the extra-large spirit beast bag was also a bit difficult to carry. These things looked very heavy!
"Why are you circling around the pavilion? Is there something wrong with it?"
The voice of Immortal Guangyuan sounded behind Zhong Ling'er, startling her.
"Oh, there is indeed something wrong with this pavilion. The problem is that I fell in love with it at first sight."
Immortal Guangyuan laughed loudly.
"Of course you like it. All the immortals who refine weapons come to my place and can't take their eyes off this pavilion. You want it, right? I tell you, it's impossible!"
