Chapter 1019: 1019 Lock Formation! (2nd update)
Without ntioning past events again, Ye Qiu shifted his attention to the old man. This elder seed to know a lot of things, and he was like a living fossil.
Ye Qiu suddenly thought of the true owner of the library ntioned by Boss Yun. Could he be this elder before him?
It wasn’t that Ye Qiu was slow to react, but his attention was previously focused on history, and he didn’t think much about it. Now, upon knowing the historical truth, Ye Qiu recognized the identity of the old man in front of him.
“That’s right, you can call the master of the library. I don’t care about titles,” the old man said calmly.
Ye Qiu found the elder knowledgeable and versed in both ancient and modern matters. He chatted freely with him, asking about many unresolved issues. To Ye Qiu’s delight, the elder spoke freely, enabling him to gain a lot.
After spending another half day in the library, Ye Qiu learned everything he wanted to know and prepared to leave.
“Don’t you want to see the third floor?” the old man chuckled as Ye Qiu descended from the second floor.
Ye Qiu shook his head, “I’ve achieved what I ca for without asking for more, and I got guidance from the senior. This trip has been fruitful enough for ; I don’t want to be greedy.”
Haha…
The old man slowly walked back upstairs, laughing heartily. Ye Qiu shrugged his shoulders and continued downstairs, exiting the library.
Ye Qiu went to the VIP room to bid farewell to Boss Yun.
“Young Master Ye stayed in the library for four consecutive days; you must have gained quite a bit,” Boss Yun said.
“It was alright,” Ye Qiu smiled.
As they chatted briefly, Boss Yun was quite curious about what the elder had said.
Ye Qiu only gave a simple account, saying the elder was gentle, and he had asked about so issues, leaving Boss Yun speechless for several seconds.
Finally, in Boss Yun’s daze, Ye Qiu left Yun Shang Palace.
Ripples stirred in the air as the venerable Wu Yang appeared, his voice gradually erging, “Didn’t expect the master to be so gentle with this lad; it’s truly enviable.”
“If his words are true, it seems I, the master of Yun Shang Palace, am not as favored as Young Master Ye. I’ve only seen a few books on the second floor, let alone asked for guidance. I’ve never even seen the master’s true appearance,” Boss Yun spoke with a hint of jealousy and envy, followed by a helpless laugh.
…
Returning from Yun Shang Palace, Ye Qiu heard of a night assault on his courtyard, injuring Jin’er and others, causing him a great shock.
Fortunately, everyone was safe, and Jin’er and others had recovered after taking dicine.
“Young master, I apologize for my incompetence in capturing the person; he managed to escape,” Jin Shanshun confessed proactively.
Ye Qiu raised a hand, saying, “You’ve done very well; there’s no need to bla yourself.”
“Young master, I fear this person was targeting you,” Jin Shanshun said.
Ye Qiu pondered for a mont, “No need to worry; we will face challenges as they co.”
Ye Qiu suspected the night intruder likely had sothing to do with him. Considering his safe return from the Barbaric Wilderness Forest, many might think he found treasures there, making a probe unsurprising.
Of course, he didn’t rule out people from the three ancient clans wanting to kill him, only to find him absent and leave grudgingly.
Regardless, none were good news for Ye Qiu.
“At present, I don’t want to openly confront the three ancient clans; growing silently is key,” Ye Qiu thought.
Afternoon.
Ye Qiu sat alone in his room, with several ancient texts before him.
According to information obtained from the library and its master, Ye Qiu learned that the ancestors of the Dugu clan were incredibly powerful, and they created the Barbaric Wilderness Forest and ancient land, preventing ancient beasts from harming humans in ancient lands.
Besides admiration for the strength of Dugu clan predecessors, Ye Qiu’s curiosity was piqued by their thods.
How was it possible to prevent ancient beasts from crossing boundaries to invade ancient lands?
This question perplexed Ye Qiu, as he had visited the Barbaric Wilderness Forest without discovering anything special at the junction with the ancient land.
No fences or barriers existed either.
To find answers, Ye Qiu wondered if it required high martial arts realm techniques or was unique to the Dugu lineage.
This worried Ye Qiu because it signified whether he could avenge the Dugu lineage ahead of schedule.
Ye Qiu could only search for answers in the books before him.
These books had been with him for a long ti; previously, he had practiced the Flood Dragon Devil Fist and the Great Turtle Breath Evasion Technique.
Besides these cultivation techniques, there were many other books.
Although Old Mo had stolen part of the Dugu clan’s techniques from the Ji clan, several belonging to the Dugu clan remained unfound, but according to Old Mo, these were the most important techniques.
Ye Qiu began flipping through each book, seeking clues.
Ye Qiu felt an instinctive intuition that he could learn the ancestor’s ans to block ancient beasts.
Once mastered, avenging the Dugu clan would no longer require prolonged patience and endurance.
Ye Qiu spent half a day ticulously examining each book, finding nothing but one that seed like a casual note—was this thod a special cultivation technique?
However, the techniques ntioned were all offensive, nothing suggesting a way to create a barrier between lands.
In the end, Ye Qiu’s focus settled on an ordinary notebook.
“Being placed alongside these techniques ans it’s not simple. Could this notebook only record feelings and environnts?” Ye Qiu mused.
Ye Qiu researched the notebook tirelessly, finding no special qualities.
Soon, he recalled how he discovered the Flood Dragon Devil Fist, and Old Mo had ntioned the true content of these ancient texts can only be understood by the Dugu clan, leading Ye Qiu to use the Perspective Eye.
Is it still necessary to use the Perspective Eye?
Ye Qiu’s eyes flashed; he had forgotten this. Without delay, Ye Qiu’s eyes glead as he re-examined the ancient texts, focusing again on the ordinary notebook. His gaze froze.
His heart suddenly stirred with excitent because the records herein hinted at the thod used by the Dugu ancestors to seal ancient beasts.
Formation!
Ye Qiu once saw Daoist Qian Zhen deploy the Twelve Heavenly Gang Formation at the martial arts conference, and Sun Ziyan’s Void-Breaking Fist broke the void, creating a black hole vortex. It was then that Ye Qiu unexpectedly gained Black Fla power.
Afterward, he visited Daoist Qian Zhen to discuss formations. Within martial arts, Daoist Qian Zhen had profound formation knowledge. According to him, formations were powerful, but those he knew were defensive and limited in power, unlike lost profound techniques.
“Could the Mu clan want to include Daoist Qian Zhen due to his formation knowledge?” Ye Qiu speculated. Since entering ancient lands, Daoist Qian Zhen hadn’t appeared, guarding the martial world for the Mu clan.
“Perhaps the Dugu ancestor managed to separate the Barbaric Wilderness Forest and ancient lands using formations,” Ye Qiu thought, his eyes shining with certainty that this must be the only possibility.
