Qingyuan Sect, Scripture Pavilion.
This was an octagonal building, layered upon layer, reaching a height of one hundred zhang.
There were many Disciples entering and exiting it.
The moment Li Mo appeared at the entrance, countless gazes fell upon him.
“Is that Li Zhenchuan?”
“Senior Brother Li is truly handsome, especially when he smiles; he’s so gentle, unlike other True Disciples who are so aloof.”
“That must be the Chixiao Sword on his waist. To obtain a Mystic Weapon at such a young age, his sword technique must be excellent.”
“I wonder what happened at Shenfeng Cave yesterday; the Earth Vein actually erupted ahead of schedule.”
“Alas, now everything below the Third Layer of Shenfeng Cave has been sealed by Elder Han He. I’m afraid it will be difficult for any Disciple to obtain a Mystic Weapon in the future.”
“Many Elders don’t even have Profound Weapons, so it has nothing to do with the Disciples anyway.”
....
The whispering was not loud.
But Li Mo heard it clearly.
“Elder Han He acts quite quickly.”
“Although that old man cares about his Face, he’s certainly reliable in his actions.”
While contemplating, Li Mo arrived at the counter on the first floor.
The Inner Sect Executive, seeing it was him, put on a smiling Face:
“Li Zhenchuan, are you planning to go to the Fifth Layer to claim the Sect trial reward?”
“Precisely.”
Li Mo nodded and handed over his waist token.
“Uh... Li Zhenchuan, the Fifth Layer only has some Mid-grade Martial Arts.”
The Inner Sect Executive reminded him.
Suitable Mid-grade Martial Arts were already quite rare for Inner Sect Disciples.
But a True Disciple shouldn’t lack such things, right?
Li Mo smiled without speaking.
The Inner Sect Executive suddenly remembered that although this Li Zhenchuan was a True Disciple, his Master was Elder Shang Wu...
Suddenly, it made sense.
“You can choose two Mid-grade Martial Arts. Please.” ƒreewebɳovel.com
“Thank you.”
Soon after, the other party completed the registration.
Then Li Mo turned and went upstairs.
On the second layer of the Scripture Pavilion, there were still many Qingyuan Sect Disciples.
The lower three layers contained all kinds of low-grade Martial Arts, as well as various biographies and miscellaneous books.
Li Mo did not stop, ascending the stairs.
On the Fourth Layer, the number of people had noticeably decreased.
This layer stored Low-grade Martial Arts, as well as various types of knowledge such as alchemy, forging, and rearing exotic beasts.
Most of those reading books here were Inner Sect Disciples.
Li Mo did take note.
There were even books about chefs.
However, after picking it up and glancing at it, Xiao Li’s mouth twitched slightly as he put it back.
“No wonder the Qingyuan Sect cafeteria’s food isn’t very good.”
Li Mo indicated that it wasn’t even a tiny bit as good as the cookbook he received from his investment return.
Fifth Layer.
There were even fewer people here.
Only Disciples who had completed Sect missions and accumulated a certain amount of contribution points could spend those points to come up.
“Hammer Technique...”
Li Mo walked to the section for weapon techniques.
“Quenching Hammer Technique... this is for forging.”
“Tiger Roar Hammer... suitable for long-handled great hammers? Not quite...”
Alright.
It seems not only did Xiao Li himself dislike smashing people with hammers.
The Scripture Pavilion was considered all-encompassing, yet he couldn’t find a few Hammer Technique Martial Arts.
Indeed.
In the Jianghu, one only heard of Sword Gods, Blade Patriarchs, and Spear Immortals.
When had anyone ever heard of a title with ‘Hammer’ in it?
Hammer Technique was already quite niche.
The Panjie Meteor Hammer was a short-handled hammer, making it even more niche among the niche.
“Brother Li!”
At this moment, a familiar young voice suddenly came from not far away.
Turning around, he saw Murong Xiao waving at him from a distance.
“You’ve also come to choose a Martial Art?”
Li Mo asked in surprise.
Shenbing Peak had a large family business.
How could a True Disciple personally run to the Scripture Pavilion to find a Martial Art?
“Brother Li misunderstands.”
“I didn’t tell Master.”
Murong Xiao gave a wry smile.
He briefly explained a few sentences, and when Li Mo activated his Tianming Divine Eye again, he understood.
【Name: Murong Xiao.】
【Age: 16.】
【Bone Root: Ming Jiaolong Body.】
【Realm: Qi Blood Realm, Seven Meridians.】 ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
【Destiny: Blue with Gray.】
【Evaluation: His father is human, his mother is a transformed Jiaolong. He is kind-hearted but greatly affected by his Bloodline. If he can combine the advantages of both, his future is limitless; if he combines the disadvantages of both, he will bring disaster to one side.】
【Recent Encounter: Affected by his Bloodline, he has recently been plagued by distracting thoughts and continuous nightmares, dreaming daily of his hands covered in blood. Therefore, he wants to find a Mind-Cultivation Technique that can calm his mind.】
“Master doesn’t even know that my Half-demons Bloodline comes from a Ming Jiaolong...”
Murong Xiao sighed with a worried Face.
“So that’s why you came to the Scripture Pavilion yourself?”
Li Mo’s expression was strange.
Murong Xiao nodded: “Yes, if he asks, I don’t want to deceive him, but I also don’t dare to tell the truth, so I simply won’t tell him...”
Li Mo: “.....”
Old Man Han He is so easy to talk to; if you just beat around the bush, getting a Mind-Cultivation Technique would be easy. Perhaps he would even directly give you a High-grade Mind-Cultivation Technique.
This child is truly honest.
“A Mind-Cultivation Technique should be findable.”
“But don’t expect a Mid-grade Mind-Cultivation Technique to suppress your Bloodline.”
Li Mo shook his head.
“Then what should I do... Hmm?”
Murong Xiao looked troubled, unsure what to do, when a booklet was suddenly thrust into his hand.
“This is...”
“Golden Bell Shield, a High-grade Body Refining Martial Art.”
“Ah?”
Murong Xiao opened his mouth, completely bewildered, unsure why Brother Li had given him a Body Refining Martial Art.
“To clear one’s mind and calm one’s spirit, it doesn’t necessarily have to be a Mind-Cultivation Technique.”
Li Mo looked helplessly at this unlucky child:
“This High-grade Martial Art comes from Buddhism; it contains Buddhist principles and is a method that cultivates both body and mind.”
“If you practice the Golden Bell Shield well, what fear do you have of distracting thoughts?”
“Golden Bell Shield...”
Murong Xiao’s dim eyes lit up.
But soon, he became flustered again, tugging at his clothes, wanting to speak but hesitating...
“No need to feel burdened.”
Li Mo patted the Chixiao Sword at his waist: “I obtained a Profound Weapon from Shenbing Peak, which is much more valuable than a High-grade Martial Art. Consider it returning a favor.”
In fact, it was more than just the Chixiao Sword.
When he gave something out, the other party might make a small profit, but he always profited more.
“Shenbing Peak is Shenbing Peak; how can this be considered returning a favor...”
“Brother Li, I am once again indebted to you.”
Murong Xiao tightly pursed his lips, his gratitude beyond words.
Looking at him like this.
It seemed that besides having a child, whatever Li Mo asked for, he wouldn’t even frown.
“When you go down the mountain to perform Sect missions, you must notify me.”
“Sect missions...”
Including True Disciples.
All Disciples of the Qingyuan Sect were required to complete large or small Sect missions periodically.
This was mandatory.
After all, if the Qingyuan Sect did nothing and just stood there, no one would respect it as the head of the Ziyang Prefecture’s Sects.
“I do have that intention recently.”
“I’ll trouble you then.”
Li Mo agreed.
The Murong family had considerable influence in Ziyang Prefecture, being one of the local powers. No matter what mission he undertook, they could provide convenience.
“Then I’ll go back and comprehend the Golden Bell Shield first!”
Murong Xiao finally revealed a smiling Face.
“Go.”
After he left.
The System also promptly sent a notification:
【Congratulations to the Host, for successfully investing one High-grade Martial Art in Murong Xiao, helping him escape the dilemma of his Bloodline.】
【Investment Feedback: One Ancient Bronze Heavenly Book Seal.】
【Ancient Bronze Heavenly Book Seal】: “Stamp it on any Martial Art to allow it to be deduced and perfected, thereby increasing the Martial Art’s grade. It can elevate a Martial Art to a {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Peerless Art at most.”
“Good stuff!”
A High-grade Martial Art turning into a Peerless Art.
Moreover, he could even choose the type of Peerless Art!
The feedback Murong Xiao brought him this time was somewhat unexpected!
