Chapter 4 Library

The sect’s treasure is lost?

Wei Zhen's heart trembled!
I immediately thought of the small box that the strange man with his face covered by mist had hidden in his cave. Could it be that thing?
Should I tell the sect leader?
If I tell the sect master, wouldn't everything about me be exposed? How to explain the two golden elixirs? It would also be easy for people to target me. After all, it's easier to avoid an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark!

It is very easy to deal with a cultivator who is not in the Nascent Soul stage, even if he has ruined the good deeds of the person behind the scenes.

Wei Zhen thought for a moment but hadn't made up his mind yet.

Let’s find a book first.

Take a deep breath, calm yourself, and walk into the library.

The Fengxian Sect had a rich collection of books. After all, the Fengxian Sect had thousands of years of heritage and was one of the five major sects in the entire Nanzhou continent. Naturally, the wealth accumulated over the years was incomparably rich.

The library has a total of eight floors, corresponding to the seven realms of cultivators: Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul, spirit transformation, cave void, and fusion.

As for the classics related to the later Mahayana realm and the Tribulation Realm, Fengxian Sect naturally does not have them.

These two cultivators are extremely rare in the entire South Continent.

The relevant cultivation texts are already considered the treasures of the religion. Moreover, the cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing period seem to have long been extinct and have not appeared for tens of thousands of years.

Wei Zhen wasn't very clear about it. He hadn't reached a higher level yet and didn't have the leisure to study these things carefully.

The eighth level contains various books, such as books on elixirs, refining equipment, and formations.

At the entrance on the first floor of the library, there is a counter with a bench inside, on which an old man is lying leisurely.

This is the sect elder stationed in the library, also known as the pavilion elder!
The strength is above Yuanying!

Every disciple who wants to enter the library needs to obtain the consent of the elders.

I saw almost no one today.

Wei Zhen walked over and said respectfully, "Greetings, Elder. I would like to refer to the relevant books on the Golden Core Realm."

The old man who was lying down gave Wei Zhen a sidelong glance and looked him up and down:
"Sword Vein disciple? You are only in the initial stage of foundation building, and you want to read the golden elixir classics of a higher realm? Boy, are you confused?"

The sect has a strict ban that prohibits disciples from reading classics that are at a higher level than their own. This is mainly because some disciples have gone astray because of this in the past, and this ban is in place to prevent similar things from happening.

Of course.

The probability of going astray is low, and as long as it is not a level above Nascent Soul, it is not a big problem.

Wei Zhenxin said that he had already achieved the Great Perfection of Golden Elixir!

However, he had anticipated this, and immediately looked around, then slowly took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve, smiling slightly:

"Elder, this is the bottle of Heart-Intoxicating Pill that I borrowed from you yesterday. It was made with top-grade Bailing Grass, top-grade Wolf Heart Blood, and mid-grade Deep Sea Monster Heart... Now I am returning it to its original owner."

borrowed?

Intoxicating pill?
The old man's eyes narrowed immediately, he looked around and smiled.

He took the pill from Wei Zhen's hand calmly, put it quietly into his sleeve, and threw out a jade slip, saying:

"You must return what you borrow. That's good. You are a kind-hearted disciple. You are a blessing to the sect! In that case, go ahead. This is the jade slip from the third floor. However, you must come out in three hours."

"Thank you, Elder!" Wei Zhen took the jade slip, thanked him, and went upstairs immediately.

"Good boy, the intoxicating pill made from the deep sea demon heart... I'd like to taste it." The old man licked the corner of his mouth, looking expectant.

The Drunken Pill is actually a kind of wine among pills, and is very popular among drunkards. Wei Zhen has been to the library more than once and has long been aware of the elder's temper, so he was well prepared.

Wei Zhen went up to the third floor and saw a dazzling array of books, including scrolls, bamboo slips, animal skin books... everything one could think of.

There were not many people in the library today, and Wei Zhen didn't see anyone on the third floor.

He took out the jade slip and found the location of the classics related to the difficulties in golden elixir practice, then walked over.

"Questions about the key to the golden elixir", "Golden elixir secret", "Holding the elixir", "The key to the cultivation of the golden elixir"...

Wei Zhen walked around but didn't find the book he was looking for, and frowned.

The matter of two golden elixirs was indeed unimaginable and unprecedented, but it actually happened to me.

Wei Zhen sighed.

He immediately started flipping through the books. Some of the names of these books did not match the content. Maybe there would be relevant records in them. As time passed, Wei Zhen flipped through the books for three hours and still found nothing.

Seeing that the jade slip in his hand had turned red, it reminded him that it was time to leave, so he could only sigh and go downstairs.

Arriving at the counter on the first floor, the old man at the counter saw Wei Zhen and his eyes lit up immediately. He asked:

"Boy, have you finished your research? Did you gain anything?"

Wei Zhen shook his head and handed over the jade slip:

"Thank you, Elder. I'll take my leave now!"

"Don't be impatient!" The old man called Wei Zhen and smiled a little embarrassedly:

"Um, um...boy, where did you get that Intoxicating Pill?"

Wei Zhen didn't find what he wanted to find, and felt a little depressed, so he said casually:

"I made it myself. I'll take my leave now!"

After saying that, he flew away on his sword without even looking back!

"Hey! This kid!" The old man glared at Wei Zhen when he saw him leave, then he touched his chin and muttered:

"Is it really made by this boy? This Intoxicating Pill tastes really strong, this old man has never tasted it before... Impossible, impossible, this boy doesn't have the Dan Vein, how could he possibly make a pill?"

Wei Zhen didn't care about the old man and flew back to the cave on his sword.

As for whether it will make the old man unhappy?
Sorry, I don’t have much else, but I have a lot of Drunken Pills!
And they were all kinds of intoxicating pills, because he was also an alcoholic before he traveled through time.

After being exposed to alchemy and learning about something called the Intoxicating Pill, he refined more than a dozen varieties of the Pill based on the various spirits he had drunk in his previous life, including Moutai flavor and Wuliangye flavor. The Intoxicating Pills he refined in this way were naturally unique and incomparable.

The old man is angry today. Give him a bottle of Drunkenness Pill tomorrow and he will be happy again.

Wei Zhen entered the cave and found that there was no sign of damage to the formation of the cave.

Then he looked at the cactus at the end of the bed.

Cactus: [Master is so scary]

Wei Zhen: “…”

He thought about it and cast a rain spell on the cactus. After the cactus was moistened, it immediately changed its expression:
[Master is so nice! Master is truly the best master in the world! Xianxian loves Master! ]

Wei Zhen frowned.

Is there no one coming to my cave?

He stared at the cactus for a moment, no more words came out.

He immediately went to look through the image-retaining array, but found nothing. Indeed, no one had come in during the time he was away.

No problem.

This time the other party may not have noticed that I was out.

Wei Zhen didn't think any more and started practicing.

However, three more days passed, during which time Wei Zhen went out several times, but still no one came to retrieve the small box, and no one blamed him. Wei Zhen finally became impatient.

He cast countless sealing spells in the cave to contain any aura in the cave to prevent any accidents.

He took the small box down again, held it in his hand and looked at it, unable to resist the urge to open it.

This thing is like a time bomb when placed here. He has no concentration on cultivation and it has seriously affected himself!

"I want to see what's in there!"

Wei Zhen took a deep breath and finally couldn't help but open the small vermilion box!

The restriction above was not strong. Wei Zhen had reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core, and his spiritual power was now far superior to what it used to be. After just a little effort, he successfully opened the small box.

"This is……"

After opening the box, he slowly took out a piece of... talisman that looked like a gold piece?
Wei Zhen's eyes shrank sharply!
