Chapter 689: Chapter 152: Ascend the Tower to See , My Own Path to the Dao
Lin Tianyi’s aning is clear: if you want to receive his guidance, you must abide by the rules and pass through the nine-story sky tower, ascending to the top.
Li Fei must first have the qualification to et Lin Tianyi before he can qualify for Lin Tianyi’s guidance.
However, if you follow Lin Tianyi’s rules to ascend the sky tower and get stuck on a certain level, you must stay there forever to guard the tower.
Even if the Emperor writes a letter to demand the person, the other party will definitely ignore it.
“Marquis Jing’an, Your Majesty is waiting for you to enter the palace.”
Seeing Li Fei put down the letter, Feng Cheng said.
“Alright, please lead the way, Eunuch Feng.”
“Marquis Jing’an, this way, please.”
…
More than an hour later, Li Fei walked out of the Imperial Study Room again.
This ti he did not return to the other courtyard, but under Feng Cheng’s guidance, went to the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.
Soon, Li Fei once again arrived at the tower located at the heart of the lake.
“His Majesty has decreed that within three months, Marquis Jing’an may read any secret manual in the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.”
Feng Cheng said to the official in charge of managing the Royal Book Collection Pavilion at the entrance.
“This official accepts the order.”
The official bowed and saluted.
“If Marquis Jing’an has any needs, just let us know.”
Feng Cheng turned to Li Fei and said with a smile.
“Thanks to Eunuch Feng.”
Li Fei returned the salute and then stepped into this tall tower.
The first floor still displayed the Grand Ancestor Stone Carving, but this ti Li Fei did not “reap the benefits.”
He directly proceeded upstairs.
“Marquis, we et again.”
The official who had just accepted the order greeted Li Fei with a smile.
His na is Ji Qian, and last ti when Li Fei entered the tower, he also accompanied him.
Ji Qian is a Third Rank official, responsible for managing this Royal Book Collection Pavilion. He seems illustrious, but in reality, he’s just a “librarian” and has no real power.
He manages this Royal Book Collection Pavilion but does not have the authority to freely read the secret manuals here.
Although the daily work is easy, there is also no opportunity for promotion.
So, having a rare chance to contact the hot and legendary figure Li Fei, Ji Qian did not want to miss the opportunity:
“Does the Marquis have any needs for entering the building this ti?”
“Apart from that notebook of Lin Tianyi, how many secret manuals related to Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts are there in this building?”
Li Fei asked.
Ji Qian was invigorated at his words and quickly replied: “Throughout the ages, there have been people specialized in Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts. Although only Lin Tianyi, as an ‘extraordinary’, truly paved the way, over the past few hundred years, so people have also achieved sothing in Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts.
Among them, there are no secret manuals on Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts below the sixth floor. The seventh floor has sixty-one, the eighth floor has twenty-five, the ninth floor thirteen, the tenth floor seven, the eleventh floor three, and the twelfth floor only one, which is the notebook of Lin Tianyi previously chosen by the Marquis.”
Li Fei nodded and said to Ji Qian: “Then I trouble Master Ji to help gather all these secret manuals, I want to read them all.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Qian was overjoyed and quickly said: “It is this official’s honor to serve the Marquis, please wait a mont, this official will select the secret manuals for you.”
Then Li Fei first ascended to the seventh floor, intending to finish reading all the secret manuals on the seventh floor first.
Lin Tianyi did not agree to guide him directly, and he wasn’t surprised.
But he did not plan to ascend the sky tower.
The sky tower set by Lin Tianyi tests not just pure realm cultivation, but more about technique, adaptability, and insight.
A clone was set on each floor, and the higher the realm of the opponent, the higher the clone’s realm would rise, until it reached the limit of that floor.
However, starting from the fifth floor, the ultimate cultivation of the clone is a Martial Arts Master and True Master.
Li Fei can fight beyond his realm mainly due to his high stamina. He’s uncertain whether Lin Tianyi’s clone will recognize this way of passing the levels, so he does not plan to impulsively ascend the sky tower.
If he were to be left behind, he would lose his freedom forever.
So he plans to try relying on himself first, researching Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts in the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.
If he can find a viable path, then he’ll try.
If not, then he’ll rebuild!
“How long do you plan on trying?”
“Three months.”
“Oh?”
“This official only gives myself three months. If I cannot find a solution in three months, I will choose to rebuild.”
“… Okay, do you need anything?”
“I want to browse all the secret manuals related to Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts in the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.”
“Granted.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
This was the dialogue between Li Fei and the Emperor in the Imperial Study Room.
Now, Li Fei began to “ascend the building.”
Since others are unreliable, he will pave his own path!
He wants to start from the seventh floor of the Royal Book Collection Pavilion and go straight to the twelfth floor, reading all the related secret manuals, finding a path for himself.
On the day he began “ascending the building,” Deputy Pavilion Master Bai Yan of Zhi Ge Pavilion returned to Lanling City with Ye Zhao.
….
April 22.
Li Fei entered the Royal Book Collection Pavilion for the third day.
Provincial City of Feng Province, Lu Mansion.
“Li Fei is reading secret manuals related to Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts in the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.”
In the room, Lu Wenzheng said to Xu Jing.
Since suddenly vomiting blood last ti, Xu Jing has been in seclusion for more than half a month before stabilizing his Martial Arts Domain.
“Secret manuals on Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts?”
Xu Jing squinted his eyes, “Are you sure?”
Lu Wenzheng nodded: “Yes.”
To get this piece of information, the Lu Family utilized many connections and hidden informants that had been concealed for many years.
The hidden informants buried in the palace, after being used this ti, probably can’t be used again in the future.
“It’s now basically certain that there is a problem with Li Fei.”
Lu Wenzheng asserted, “In the Tianshui Tomb, he must have paid a price to slay You Ming!”
