Chapter 25 - Gambler Ye Feng, King Spirit Root
As Li Guanqi stepped into the Scripture Pavilion, he couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.
Why was such a powerful hidden expert sitting so blatantly at the entrance of the Scripture Pavilion? On the other hand, the cleaner, whom he had assumed to be an expert in disguise, turned out to be nothing more than an ordinary cripple.
The Scripture Pavilion had an incredibly high ceiling, and the air was bone-dry, likely due to some method used to protect the cultivation manuals and secret techniques from moisture damage.
The first floor was vast and open, with neatly arranged bookshelves packed densely together. Each shelf was labeled according to the type of cultivation techniques it held.
At the moment, there were only a dozen or so sect disciples scattered around, browsing through the selections.
When he ascended to the second floor, he immediately noticed that there were far fewer books there. Only a handful of bookshelves remained, and just two or three disciples were present. Among them was the senior brother who had spoken to him earlier.
Upon seeing Li Guanqi, the senior brother enthusiastically waved and smiled. “Junior Brother, there are some excellent lightning-element techniques over here! They are even Upper Yellow Tier techniques, which are very suitable for you.”
Li Guanqi smiled in embarrassment and pointed upstairs. “Thank you, Senior Brother, but I’m headed to the third floor.”
The senior brother’s hand froze in mid-air. He had spent over a year accumulating 1,500 contribution points just to gain access to the second floor. The third floor required a minimum of 3,000 points!
Noticing his disbelief, Li Guanqi quickly explained, “Senior Brother, you misunderstood. I don’t have that many points.”
The youth’s expression eased, and he chuckled.
