After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he headed towards the stairs leading to the second floor.
"Hmm? Li Yunjing? What are you doing on the second floor?"
Halfway up, he encountered two Inner Sect Disciples blocking his path.
"Hehe! Greetings, senior brothers. Please take a look!"
Li Yunjing recognized these two as the guards on duty for the second floor.
They often crossed paths, eting frequently during their daily routines.
However, personal connections were useless at this ti; strict adherence to the Scripture Pavilion’s rules was necessary to ascend to the second floor.
Thus, Li Yunjing did not waste any words and handed over the recomndation letter given to him by the elder.
"Hmm! A recomndation letter?"
Taking the letter, one of the Inner Sect Disciples verified its authenticity and his expression changed drastically.
This was a recomndation from a high-ranking individual!
Ordinary Foundation Establishnt stewards didn’t even have the qualification!
Li Yunjing, this silent fellow, had made such significant achievents?
In truth, the two Inner Sect Disciples now looked at Li Yunjing with a newfound respect and awe.
This was a man with formidable connections!
They couldn’t afford to offend him!
"Brother Li, follow . I will personally escort you to complete the procedures."
The Inner Sect Disciple who received Li Yunjing’s letter gave a flattering smile, turned around, and motioned for Li Yunjing to follow.
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Li Yunjing nodded, smiled in return, and followed the disciple up the stairs.
The stairs from the first to the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion were both high and wide.
They could accommodate seven or eight people walking side by side, with a total of 365 steps.
Each step was constructed using high-grade Wood Elent Spiritual Objects.
This wasn’t a display of extravagance but served a significant purpose, with powerful restrictions embedded in the steps.
Intruders would be killed by the restrictions if they tried to enter uninvited!
At the end of the stairs, Li Yunjing noticed that the entrance to the second floor wasn’t an ordinary door.
Instead, it was a light curtain shimring with blue ripples, like flowing water.
"A Teleportation Array?"
Li Yunjing was startled and turned to the senior brother, curiously asking, "What’s this?"
"Hehe! Co on! The second floor of the ’Scripture Pavilion’ is different from the first floor. Follow , and you’ll see."
The Inner Sect senior brother smiled mysteriously, motioned with his hand, and led Li Yunjing into the light curtain.
A cool sensation flashed through his body, and in the next mont, Li Yunjing’s vision blurred. He and the Inner Sect senior brother had entered a new space.
It was indeed different from what the senior brother described.
The space was no longer like a library but consisted of independent stone rooms, arranged in neat rows, with a total of nine hundred rooms.
"Junior Brother Li, follow to complete the procedures and pay the fees."
Seeing Li Yunjing’s curiosity, the Inner Sect senior brother smiled and motioned for him to follow.
Near the entrance to the second floor, there was an office area for the duty disciples.
With the help of this senior brother, Li Yunjing quickly obtained a one-day reading pass.
After completing the handover, the Inner Sect Disciple bid farewell to Li Yunjing and left the second floor to continue his duty at the stairs.
"Senior Sister, how should I borrow the books?"
Looking at the stone rooms, Li Yunjing was a bit unclear about the rules and thus asked the Inner Sect female disciple who handled the procedures for him.
"It’s simple! There are two ways! The first thod, naturally, is to borrow and take the book away, depending on the book’s grade, it costs 300-9000 Spirit Stones!"
The female disciple’s words made Li Yunjing’s heart sink.
That’s costly!
The most expensive book on the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion required 9000 Spirit Stones to borrow once!
Isn’t this life-threatening?
A single book was worth half a "Foundation Establishnt Pill"!
The price was indeed exorbitant!
The female disciple then laughed and added, "The second thod is to rent a stone room. The cost for one day is 1000 Spirit Stones, and you can read all non-Foundation Establishnt level books!"
"Of course, since you only have one day, I suggest renting a stone room."
Finally, the female disciple added.
"Alright! Here are 1000 Spirit Stones!"
Li Yunjing had no other choice but to hand over 1000 Spirit Stones.
"Very well! Junior Brother Li, go to Stone Room No. 378. You can leave once the day is over."
The Inner Sect female disciple collected the Spirit Stones, handed Li Yunjing a token, and said, "This is the key to your stone room. You can select the books inside the room."
"Uh! Okay..."
Li Yunjing was still a bit confused, but since the female disciple clearly didn’t want to explain further, he could only find his stone room.
The second floor’s layout was clear, with rows of neatly arranged stone rooms.
Soon, Li Yunjing found Stone Room No. 378 based on the token.
Inserting the key into a recess on the stone door, the token fit perfectly. With a creaking sound, the stone door slowly opened.
Li Yunjing took down the token and entered the room.
The stone room wasn’t large, around a dozen square ters.
The layout was simple, with only a table and a chair, and on the wall opposite the chair was a light curtain.
Seeing this, Li Yunjing couldn’t help but marvel.
This device seed advanced; the light curtain displayed a categorized list of books, including Magic, Alchemy Dao, Array Dao, Artifact Dao, and more.
Li Yunjing tried it out and found that he could communicate with the light curtain using his Divine Thought to select options.
As Li Yunjing channeled his Spiritual Power into the Magic section,
the contents on the light curtain imdiately changed, displaying various Magic systems, including Gold Elent Magic, Fire Elent Magic, Wood Elent Magic, and even the Thunder Elent Magic he longed for.
"This thing feels like it has a touch of technology!"
Li Yunjing marveled again and, without hesitation, chose Thunder Elent Magic first.
An array of Thunder Skill nas appeared...
"Wow! So many, over 100 Thunder Skills!"
Li Yunjing glanced at the list, considered for a mont, and finally chose "Five Thunders True thod."
He rembered that the Thunder Skill Xu Xun used to defeat Si Hezhong was "Five Thunders True thod."
Once he mastered the "Five Thunders True thod," he thought about how to astonish Xu Xun in the future!
Li Yunjing communicated with the light curtain using his spirit and selected the book.
The light curtain flashed, and suddenly, a book flew out from the light curtain, landing gently on the table.
"Wow! It even features automatic delivery! How many layered teleportation arrays are integrated into this?"
Ti was tight, and after marveling for a mont, Li Yunjing quickly sat down and began reading "Five Thunders True thod."
"Five Thunders True thod" was profound and extensive, far from being an ordinary Thunder Skill.
Reading through it, Li Yunjing discovered it to be the supre Thunder Skill that combined the Power of the Five Elents.
When mastered, it could unleash "Wood God Thunder," "Binghuo Divine Thunder," "Earth God Thunder," "Geng tal Divine Thunder," and "Gui Water Divine Thunder."
Each type of thunder represented the extre embodint of the Power of the Five Elents.
Only with true perfection could the strongest power be unleashed.
Legend has it that once perfected, even celestial beings from the heavens would be struck down.
The Law Enforcent Hall prodigy, Xu Xun, had only grasped a tiny fraction of it.
Not to ntion achieving mastery; he hadn’t even reached a small success, barely scratching the surface, rely getting started.
As Li Yunjing read, he was deeply drawn into its profound content.
"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!"
Reading and linking it with his own understanding of Thunder Skills, Li Yunjing beca thoroughly imrsed in cultivation.
This "Five Thunders True thod," profound and extensive, was more complex than all the Magic and minor Divine Techniques Li Yunjing had ever studied combined.
Initially, Li Yunjing thought his exceptional Spiritual Power would let him read ten books in a day and gain a substantial profit.
However, when he truly started learning the "Five Thunders True thod," he realized how terribly wrong he was.
This thod wasn’t easy to learn.
From converting the Power of the Five Elents into Thunder Skills, to how to trigger and guide thunder power, and how to nurture thunder within the body, everything was incredibly complex.
Even a slight negligence could result in self-harm, let alone attacking others.
Thunder Skills are exceptionally strong and are the most powerful Divine Techniques against Evil Demons. The difficulty of cultivation made Li Yunjing frown countless tis.
Despite his comprehension and talent, he still needed to read carefully, ponder repeatedly, and experint tirelessly to gain even a slight understanding.
This was because Li Yunjing was in sync with Thunder Skills, possessing a high-grade Thunder Spirit Root, and was self-taught in so Thunder Skills, enabling him to understand the book’s contents.
If it were an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple, they would have no chance of starting the cultivation!
Even so True Disciples below the Foundation Establishnt Realm couldn’t cultivate this "Five Thunders True thod."
Li Yunjing’s daring choice to attempt the "Five Thunders True thod" was beyond the purple-robed elder’s expectations.
Li Yunjing was adept at concealing his talent and blending in.
In the eyes of the purple-robed elder, Li Yunjing was just an ordinary Five Elents Spirit Root cultivator.
Thus, the elder ticulously selected so Five Elents Magic for Li Yunjing to build a solid foundation and fully utilize the opportunity to borrow advanced Five Elents minor Divine Techniques to enhance his strength.
The purple-robed elder never imagined that Li Yunjing would dare to attempt the "Five Thunders True thod."
If he knew, he would be utterly astonished.
In the Shenxiao Dao Sect, Xu Xun could cultivate the "Five Thunders True thod" while in the Great Perfection of the Qi Cultivation Realm, becoming the strongest prodigy in the Shenxiao Dao Sect in the past three thousand years.
He was the first to be able to initially wield the "Five Thunders True thod" in the Qi Cultivation Realm.
This "Five Thunders True thod," though its first volu was placed in the second level of the Scripture Pavilion.
It was rely intended to broaden the horizons of Inner Sect and True Disciples.
The Sect’s high-ranking individuals never really expected their disciples to master this supre classic.
The esteed figures never held such expectations!
For Li Yunjing to comprehend the "Five Thunders True thod" in the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, his capability already rivaled a top-grade Thunder Spirit Root ancestor of the Sect from ten thousand years ago.
That ancestor dominated an era, invincible in every battle.
He remains a source of pride rembered by countless cultivators in the history of the Shenxiao Dao Sect.
Li Yunjing’s choice now seed remarkably similar to that legendary ancestor!
...
At this mont, on the fifth floor of the "Scripture Pavilion," two elders sat in a tea room, one of whom was the purple-robed elder familiar to Li Yunjing.
"Hehe! Brother Sun, I never thought you’d co to for a favor one day."
A black-robed elder, beaming, looked at the purple-robed elder.
"Haha! Brother Liu, there’s no other way! After finally finding an outstanding talent, I can’t bear to see them waste their youth on trivial duties."
The purple-robed elder chuckled, seemingly a bit sentintal.
