Chapter 172 Library

Hearing this, Xiao Chen was slightly stunned, and looked up and down at Xiao Mei.

At this moment, there was a light blush on Xiao Mei's charming and pure cheeks, and the college uniform perfectly outlined her figure.

Under the light, she looked particularly charming, making her look somewhat pitiful, giving people the illusion of wanting to protect her.

Xiao Chen nodded, and then the two of them sat down in the living room and began to talk about the library and some things about the inner courtyard.

After a while, Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Mei's figure disappearing outside the door, muttering, "I didn't expect that Xiao Mei was interested in me. A young girl in love."

The next day.

In a house, Hu Qian looked at Xiao Chen and the other four and said with a smile:

"You five are the top five in this year's inner courtyard selection competition. According to the rules of the academy, you are eligible to enter the library to try your luck and get your own opportunity."

After Hu Qian finished speaking, he turned around and stood by the wall. He stretched out his dry palms and patted it regularly a few times, followed by a low sound.

In the vision of Xiao Chen and the other four, a pitch-black passage emerged. Hu Qian waved at the five people, indicating that they could go in. The next moment, he took the lead in entering the dark passage, and a voice came out.

"Come with me."

Hearing this, Xiao Chen, Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Yan, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Mei walked into the dark passage one after another with different feelings.

After entering the dark passage, Xiao Chen looked around and found that the walls were inlaid with thousands of luminous pearls. The faint light of the luminous pearls illuminated the dark passage.

Xiao Chen held Xiao Xun'er's soft and boneless jade hand and followed closely behind Hu Qian. The group walked in the passage for nearly half an hour before they arrived at the end of the dark passage and then stepped out of the passage.

Immediately, the dazzling sunlight poured down from the sky. Xiao Chen subconsciously closed his eyes. After a moment, he looked up.

They found that in front of them was a valley with some grooves. There were cliffs on three sides of the valley. In the valley, there was a huge and ancient pavilion standing on it. The pavilion still exists after years of baptism, and people can feel its vicissitudes and the long history of this pavilion.

Outside the huge and ancient building, there is a plaque that looks extremely old. On the plaque, there are three faintly visible ancient characters.

"Cangshu Pavilion, this is Canaan College's Zangshu Pavilion. Are there any heaven-level fighting skills here? There is a high probability that there are none."

Xiao Chen glanced at the three words and spoke slowly.

"Brother Xiao Chen, someone once obtained low-level fighting skills from the library." Xiao Xun'er, who was beside Xiao Chen, explained.

"Earth-level fighting skills? I wonder if we can get it." After hearing Xiao Xun'er's words, Xiao Mei said in a soft voice.

Then everyone walked towards the Chengshu Pavilion. When they were about to enter the Cangshu Pavilion with a distance of 20 meters, Hu Qian suddenly stopped, clasped his fists in the direction of the Cangshu Pavilion and said:
"The top five candidates for this year's inner court selection competition have been announced. According to the rules, I have brought them here. Please open the door, elders."

Not long after Hu Qian finished speaking, two grey-robed figures sitting cross-legged on the ground appeared out of nowhere at the entrance of the library. The grey robes covered their bodies, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

"A Dou Zong strongman, a thousand and two elders."

Xiao Chen sensed the aura emanating from the two grey-robed men. Although they tried to restrain their aura, he still sensed it and soon knew their identities. Hu Qian bowed to the two grey-robed men and said with a smile, "Please, elders, unlock the space lock."

Space lock?
For Xiao Yan, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Mei, this is an unfamiliar word and is not at the level they can reach yet.

Xiao Chen knew the plot and had a general understanding of it, not to mention that Xiao Xun'er was a princess of the ancient clan.

"The space lock is a powerful knot that only Dou Zun masters are capable of setting up. This space lock was left by a senior from the academy hundreds of years ago. If the two elders inside didn't use special methods to open it, even if a Dou Zong master came, he wouldn't be able to get in."

Knowing that Xiao Chen and his companions were here for the first time, Hu Qian in front smiled and explained, his voice full of confidence and pride.

Hearing this, the two grey-robed men in the pavilion nodded without saying anything else. The next moment, two pairs of dry hands emerged from the grey robes and began to form seals.

This is a magical hand print that dazzled Xiao Chen.

Following the movement of their handprints, two extremely forceful and invisible fluctuations spread like waves from their palms.

As the invisible waves gradually spread, they finally came into contact with the spatial folds of the library behind him.

When the two came into contact, the space in front of them suddenly became like a mirror made of water.

Ripples continued to appear, and after a while, the ripples stopped. A door was slowly torn open by an invisible hand. Behind the door was pitch black, and it looked like a dark space passage.

Not far from the space passage, two gray-robed figures were still sitting cross-legged on the ground, without saying a word. However, Xiao Chen vaguely felt that one of them seemed to be sizing him up, which made Xiao Chen frown slightly, and then relaxed.

Hu Qian said as he walked towards the door of the library, "Let's go."

Seeing this, Xiao Chen and his companions followed closely and walked towards the door of the library.

Hu Qian walked to the library, stopped in front of the space door, and slowly explained:
"Now you can enter the library on your own. Remember, no matter what you want, you can't force it, because everything inside is added with an energy layer. If your hand can pass through the energy layer without hindrance, then you can take away the things inside.

"Of course, no matter how many things you can pick up, there is only one thing you can take out of the library. Inside the library, it depends on your strength and chance. Don't force yourself to get something you can't get. Remember to come out within the specified time."

Hearing this, Xiao Chen and the others nodded. After understanding how to get the treasure, they entered the library one after another.

After Xiao Chen and the other four entered the library, the ancient door that had been opened slowly closed again.

After entering the library, Xiao Chen and his companions walked for a few minutes, passed through the dark passage, and came to an extremely spacious room.

There are more than ten energy shields on the walls around the spacious room, and at this moment, those energy shields are constantly spitting out streams of light. Each stream of light has a different color and size, and represents something of different quality.

The streamer shuttled through the spacious room, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to catch the streamer passing by his side, and he caught it easily.

Because the light emitted by the stream of light he caught was a little dimmer than that of other streams of light.
