Free Web NovelChapter 1322: Chapter 1308: The Old Men of the Heavenly Book Pavilion
Yang Xiao listened and sighed,
"It seems the Heavenly Book Pavilion is the most mysterious and influential book collection pavilion on Witch Star Continent, right?"
Gu Bo nodded,
"I just love how smart you are!"
Yang Xiao: "..."
"So, do you want to visit our Heavenly Book Pavilion?"
Yang Xiao was a bit excited inside, thinking, isn’t that a given? Everyone wants to visit the Heavenly Book Pavilion.
"Ahem, this Heavenly Book Pavilion is the core secret place of the Genetic Store. How dare an outsider like me hope to enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion?"
"Haha, whether I can take you into the Heavenly Book Pavilion or not, I still need to ask the elders inside the Heavenly Book Pavilion."
"Elders? Aren’t the elders of the Elder Court outside in a meeting?"
Gu Bo smiled and said:
"The elders of the Elder Court are for the outside. The elders of this Heavenly Book Pavilion are the seniors of our Gu family. They are retired from the Elder Court and usually love to read books in the Heavenly Book Pavilion, researching some genetic evolution cultivation techniques and secret manuals. Wait for me outside the door."
Gu Bo told the four black-cloaked guards:
"I will take a trip to the Heavenly Book Pavilion. You accompany Young Master Yang and do not neglect him!"
The four black-cloaked guards immediately bowed and said:
"Yes!"
Gu Bo walked to the golden defense light screen, took out a golden jade token, and handed it to the two golden armor guards at the door.
The golden armor guards took the golden jade token and swiped it at a mechanism in front of the golden defense light curtain gate.
A beam of light flashed, and the golden defense light screen automatically opened a gate.
The golden armor guards returned the jade token to Gu Bo and bowed,
"Great Elder, please!"
Gu Bo walked into the golden light curtain gate, and the defense light screen automatically closed.
After entering the golden defense light screen, Gu Bo swiped the golden jade token again on the door inside, and the door opened. Gu Bo entered the Heavenly Book Pavilion.
On the first floor of the Heavenly Book Pavilion, an elderly man with white hair was holding an ancient book and reading earnestly, occasionally gesturing a few times, the surrounding space occasionally fluctuating.
Gu Bo walked nearby the elder, bowed, and said:
"Second Uncle, are you still researching the cultivation technique of immortality and eternal life through soul consciousness?"
The old man didn’t even lift his head and said faintly,
"Gu Bo, where have you been these years? I don’t see you often!"
"Nephew has been traveling around alien planets these years."
"Hmm, any gains?"
"Found some people with extraordinary genetic evolution talent."
"Oh!"
The old man let out an ’oh’ and then continued reading the ancient book in his hand.
Gu Bo stood respectfully aside and said softly,
"Second Uncle, recently something happened on Witch Star that might affect the future of Witch Star."
"What happened?"
"Dwarf Star people invaded our Witch Star."
"Oh? Didn’t Gu Huan mention this to me last time? I told him to deal with it; hasn’t it been resolved?"
"It’s temporarily resolved. We killed fifty thousand guards of the Dwarf Star people, but their Saint Level Supreme escaped, and we can’t capture him for now."
The white-haired elder put down the book in his hand, looked at Gu Bo, sighed, and said:
"Five hundred years, I didn’t expect the prophecy of that time to come true, Thanos Saint is really reborn and revived, and wants to invade Witch Star in revenge,
Alas, unfortunately, our Witch Star doesn’t even have a Saint Level Supreme, Witch Star is in danger!"
Gu Bo was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice,
"Hasn’t Great Grandfather been able to break through to Emperor Level Supreme yet?"
The white-haired elder glanced at Gu Bo, said faintly,
"You think breaking through to Saint Level Supreme is so easy? If it were as easy as you think, we would have broken through long ago,
I’ve been in the Heavenly Book Pavilion for fifty years, your Great Grandfather for seventy years, and the rest of the elders at least thirty years. We’ve read the genetic evolution cultivation secret manuals left by eight Saint Level Supreme experts from five hundred years ago countless times but can’t find a breakthrough, it’s tough!"
Seeing the elder sighing and shaking his head, Gu Bo said in a low voice,
"Uncle, I found a genius of genetic evolution on Earth. Since activating the genetic evolution system, he has started from the most basic level, breaking through to the Emperor Level Realm in just seven years, a true talent!"
The white-haired elder’s eyes flashed, watching Gu Bo,
"Really?"
"Of course it is true. This person practiced the Flying Leopard Divine Skill for two years and broke through from Empire Level Primary Level to Emperor Level Realm."
The white-bearded elder pondered for a moment, exclaimed,
"Such a genius is stronger than the eight Saint Level Supreme experts from five hundred years ago. Where is he?"
"Right outside the Heavenly Book Pavilion."
The white-haired elder was surprised and asked,
"Gu Bo, what do you mean by bringing him here?"
"Nephew thinks since the kid possesses such a strong genetic evolution talent, if we let him enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion to cultivate, perhaps he can glean some inspiration for genetic evolution, and breaking through to Saint Level Supreme might not be impossible."
"Your intention is to let that young man enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion to cultivate?"
Gu Bo nodded,
"Nephew knows the Gu family’s ancestral teachings, that only those who are of the Gu family or the elders of the Genetic Store Headquarters can enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion,
But with Witch Star facing the threat of Thanos Saint’s invasion, nephew really can’t find enough strong people to counter Thanos Saint, so I’m desperately trying to find a cure, boldly thinking this genetic evolution genius might be able to try, maybe he can create miracles."
The white-bearded elder pondered for a moment, stroked his beard, and said:
"For this matter, you should still consult Great Grandfather; I can’t make the decision."
Gu Bo scratched his head,
"Where is Great Grandfather now?"
"Your Great Grandfather is cultivating on the third floor."
Gu Bo hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice,
"Junior doesn’t dare disturb Great Grandfather’s cultivation, please Uncle, can you help me ask?"
The white-bearded elder nodded, stood up, and said:
"Alright, I haven’t seen your Great Grandfather for over a year, I should check how his cultivation is going."
Gu Bo waited on the first floor for about half an hour until Second Uncle slowly walked down the stairs from the second floor.
Gu Bo hurriedly greeted him,
"Second Uncle, what did Great Grandfather say?"
"Your Great Grandfather said if you want him to come in, then let him take a look. Besides, Great Grandfather asked me to tell you if Thanos Saint really invades Witch Star, we can’t count on them, you should think of other solutions soon."
Gu Bo inwardly lamented, you old guys have been in the Heavenly Book Pavilion for decades without any progress? You can’t even step up at key moments and lend a hand?
Gu Bo could only grumble inwardly, but he knew that the ten elders currently in the Heavenly Book Pavilion were the previous two generations of elders from the Genetic Store Elder Court, all his seniors. Once they enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion, they rarely come out, spending years cultivating genetic techniques in the pavilion, just hoping to break through to Saint Level Supreme as soon as possible.
For them, time is especially precious, and wasting even a little time is not worth it. Even when Dwarf Star people invade Witch Star with fifty thousand troops, Second Elder invited them to help, but several elders said:
"You can’t deal with fifty thousand troops? Then when Thanos Saint invades with hundreds of thousands, you might as well surrender?
We have no time, we need to hurry up our cultivation, maybe we can break through to Saint Level Supreme before Thanos Saint’s invasion?"
