My Master Knows It All
Chapter 124 - 124 115 Scouring Everywhere_1
124: Chapter 115: Scouring Everywhere_1 124: Chapter 115: Scouring Everywhere_1 After Bei Yan walked out of the Immortal Soldier Workshop, the smile on his face never faded; he didn’t know whether the two treasures he got were the strongest in the Divine Soldier Tomb, but he felt they were indeed the most suitable for him.
As he walked, he even turned back to tease his senior brother, “By the way, senior brother, what treasures did you dig up over there?
A broken axe, or some sort of snapped sword?”
He genuinely thought there was something wrong with his senior brother’s brain.
Clearly, one could choose directly usable treasures from the Divine Soldier Tomb, yet his senior brother didn’t, preferring instead to look for damaged goods.
Who in their right mind would do such a thing?
Xiang Ziyu immediately broke into a smug smile, “Neither a snapped sword nor a broken axe, what I got is a prayer bead, the Ancestral Elder’s prayer bead.”
“Pfft…” Bei Yan choked on his own spit, coughing while staring at his senior brother with a face full of shock.
His senior brother got something from the Ancestral Elder?
Was this what they call ‘a fool’s luck’?
The two chatted all the way back to the secret chamber belonging to the Hidden Dragon Three Sons.
Yan Yourong had been cultivating in the secret chamber without leaving.
Upon seeing the two, she immediately asked about their finds.
“So, you got a relic from the Ancestral Elder?” Yan Yourong looked at Xiang Ziyu as if she was looking at someone who had stumbled upon a Spirit Stone by mere luck.
She, her master, and Bei Yan had all obtained relics from the Substitute Sect Leaders of the True Person, but there were so many Substitute Sect Leaders of the True Person in the Hundred Peaks Sect, and there were quite a few relics left by the True Person in the Divine Soldier Tomb.
But there was only one Ancestral Elder!
Xiang Ziyu flicked his hair in an extremely cocky manner, “Senior sister, don’t look at me with that kind of admiration.
There will be more and more such occurrences in the future.
As the main character, senior sister, you’ll have to slowly get used to it.”
Yan Yourong completely ignored the latter part of Xiang Ziyu’s statement and said seriously to both of them, “Next, I recommend you visit the Divine Skills Secret Record Pavilion, which houses secret techniques left behind by our ancestors of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
You might find a Divine Skill that suits you.”
“Divine Skills are, of course, necessary, but I think that senior sister is wrong.
We should first visit the Five-Element Pill Ground.
Perhaps there is an Ancient God Pill left by a predecessor there, or maybe the Ancestral Elder left some Pills for me as well.”
On the way to the Divine Skills Secret Record Pavilion, Xiang Ziyu pointed to another path and asked Bei Yan beside him, “Little Beiyan, are you going to the Five-Element Pill Ground?”
“Nope,” Little Beiyan shook his head like a rattle-drum, “I don’t know how to do Alchemy, I’m not going.”
“If you’re not going, then I’ll go by myself.”
“Go by yourself then, I’m heading to the Divine Skills Secret Record Pavilion.” Little Beiyan walked forward without turning his head, What a joke, he thought, you hit the jackpot in the Immortal Soldier Workshop, getting the Ancestral Elder’s relic, and now you actually think you’re the main character?
None of us know how to do Alchemy.
Why would we go to the Five-Element Pill Ground to waste time?
“You’ll regret it, are you really going?” Xiang Ziyu looked at Little Beiyan’s departing back with an expression of pity, “Little Beiyan, you’ve missed the chance to follow the main character.
When you see me again, you’ll find that you’ve been far left behind.”
While speaking, Xiang Ziyu arrived at the Five-Element Pill Ground, only to stand there dumbfounded at the desolate space in front of him.
He had read in a book that though the Five-Element Pill Ground lacked buildings like houses, there should be many Pill Furnaces and countless valuable medicinal herbs.
But now, this Five-Element Pill Ground was barren—without herbs or Pill Furnaces, not a single person in sight.
“Could I have come to the wrong place?
No, this is the Five-Element Pill Ground, why is it different from the description?
Is anyone there?
Hello?”
Xiang Ziyu called out for a long time without anyone appearing, and could only let out a resigned sigh before turning to leave.
This bare place had nothing at all; how could he find an Ancient God Pill?
He decided to find someone to ask what exactly was going on with the Five-Element Pill Ground.
With no other choice, he turned his steps towards the Divine Skills Secret Record Pavilion.
The Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion is a five-story tower, and standing in front of the tower at this moment are two people, one old and one young.
“Little Beiyan, are you standing here waiting to go in with your senior brother?” Xiang Ziyu’s heart was slightly moved.
Although his junior brother said he had come to the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion on his own, in the end, he was still waiting at the entrance for him.
Little Beiyan shook his head, “I am waiting for senior brother, but not to go in with him.
I am waiting to go back with him.
I have already obtained a Divine Skill.”
“That quickly?
You didn’t just randomly pick a Divine Skill secret manual, did you?” Xiang Ziyu was very puzzled.
He had only taken a detour to the Five-Element Pill Ground and had not stayed long before arriving here.
There wasn’t much time difference between them, so how could Little Beiyan have already chosen a secret manual within such a short span?
Little Beiyan rolled his eyes, Randomly pick?
Do you think I’m as foolish as you, to just randomly grab a secret manual?
“The Divine Skill I got is called the Earth Fire Thunder Light Circle, and it’s ranked among the top ten Divine Skills within the Hidden Dragon Observatory.
More importantly, it is a fire thunder Divine Skill, which perfectly complements the Flowing Cloud Fire Thunder Hammer I just obtained.
Oh yes, senior brother, this is Pavilion Master Lin of the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion.
If you want to know what kind of Divine Skill you’re looking for, you can ask Pavilion Master Lin, and he will tell you the approximate location.”
Otherwise, the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion is so vast, if you try to find it on your own, you might not even find the Divine Skill secret technique you want in an entire day.”
Xiang Ziyu didn’t immediately greet Pavilion Master Lin but took two more steps forward and asked in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Little Beiyan, did you see the cleaning old man when you arrived here?”
“No, the place with the sweeping monk is the Scripture Pavilion, this is the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion.” As Little Beiyan spoke, he widened the gap between himself and Xiang Ziyu.
It’s really the master’s fault, why tell so many stories?
Look, senior brother is taking them seriously.
“That makes sense.
It seems I’ll have to wait until I go down the mountain and visit a temple.” Xiang Ziyu mumbled to himself before running over to Pavilion Master Lin, smiling and asking, “Pavilion Master, do we have any of those incomplete or unnamed Divine Skill secret manuals here?”
Pavilion Master Lin nodded in surprise, “The secret techniques and Divine Skills kept here are all provided by the predecessors of our sect.
Many of them are Divine Skills cultivated by the predecessors themselves, while others were obtained by them through serendipitous circumstances.
Some of these Divine Skill secret manuals were already incomplete when they were acquired, and others are missing parts for various reasons.
Why do you ask about these secret manuals?”
“So, can I choose from these Divine Skill secret manuals?” Xiang Ziyu’s eyes lit up, it sounded like there were quite a few incomplete manuals.
“You can, but are you sure?” Pavilion Master Lin advised, “The rules of the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion allow you to take only one Divine Skill at a time.
After obtaining the Divine Skill, you need to master it before you can re-enter the Pavilion to choose other secret manuals.
If you take an incomplete Divine Skill and are unable to cultivate the Divine Skill, you will never be able to enter the Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion again.”
Xiang Ziyu confidently replied, “No worries, I’m sure.
I am the main character, just because others can’t cultivate it doesn’t mean I can’t.
Pavilion Master, where are those Divine Skill secret manuals you mentioned?”
“Underground.”
The Divine Skill Secret Records Pavilion has five floors above ground, but there is also one underground level, which houses various incomplete secret manuals.
Xiang Ziyu quickly began to search underground,
“This one is too new, the age is not old enough, I don’t want it.”
“This one…
the title is too complete, no need for it.”
“This one can do, it’s old enough, let me see…
What, Slayer Sword?
No good by the name alone, let’s change…”
“This one…
this one looks like it’s been burned.”
Finally, Xiang Ziyu flipped through and found a book to his satisfaction.
The cover was entirely blackened, with a large part missing; he could make out a faint “demon” character and it seemed there was another character “below,” but none of the pages inside were intact.
“I’ll keep this one for now, let’s see if there’s anything better.” Xiang Ziyu tucked the book with the “demon” character into his chest and continued his search.
