Chapter 80

"The power of Shushan is naturally unfathomable; there is no need to overthink it."

Zhongli shook his head gently, his eyes burning as he looked at everything magical before him.

This is the first floor of the Scripture Depository.

Its area, at a glance, almost reached the size of the entire Liyue region.

The most magical thing is...

Inside the Scripture Depository, there are no paper books at all; instead, they are all jade talismans.

Moreover, these jade talismans are flying wantonly in the air, looking very much like birds in a vast world.

It is truly incredibly magical.

In this space, apart from the dense rows of bookshelves, there is nothing else.

Some jade talismans fly around, passing by the crowd from time to time, but some jade talismans stay very honestly on the bookshelves.

For a moment, it made everyone's eyes dazzled.

"So many immortal cultivation methods... how long will it take to pick one!"

Liuyun looked at the library before her with some melancholy.

The good news is that there are many cultivation methods, and there is plenty to learn.

The bad news is that there are too many cultivation methods, and there is plenty to learn...

The different contexts quite well display the melancholy in Liuyun's heart.

With so many cultivation methods, even if one were to look through them one by one to choose, it would probably take several years.

Suddenly, everyone understood why Shushan required disciples to only come in once a year.

With so many cultivation methods, they are truly not afraid of disciples picking until they die here.

Moreover, Keqing and Ningguang, who are at the early stage of Refining Essence into Qi, did not bring flying swords and cannot fly at all.

Could it be that they really have to measure the distance step by step on their own?

Such a monumental task could probably rival the great adventurers who walk to measure every inch of land in Liyue.

Zhongli also had a bit of a headache looking at it, but these Refining Essence into Qi level techniques were useful to him.

But since they had finally entered the Scripture Depository, they had to pick one that suited them, right?

Zhongli's ambition did not lie here; he yearned for the Refining Qi into Spirit area on the second floor.

But right now, he did not know how to go up, so he might as well act with everyone else first.

Everyone ignored the jade talismans flying around them and walked forward step by step.

The gate behind them also gradually turned into points of light and disappeared.

It is just that everyone, immersed in the many techniques, naturally could not see it.

Not knowing how long they had walked, Keqing seemed to be annoyed by the large pile of jade talismans before her.

She grabbed a jade talisman that happened to fly in front of her.

In an instant, a stream of information flooded into her mind.

"Yellow-grade high-tier sword technique, Heavenly Dipper Sword."

"Step on the Heavenly Dipper, carry the Seeing Beidou, draw thunder into the body, eliminate demons and defend the Dao."

"Note: The Heavenly Dipper Sword is a sword path of extreme rigidity; cultivation requires caution."

Yellow-grade high-tier?

Keqing looked at everyone with some confusion.

"What is a Yellow-grade high-tier sword technique?"

This question stumped everyone.

But before they could think, Jiang Yan's voice rang out in the Scripture Depository.

"The so-called Yellow-grade high-tier refers to the grade of the cultivation method."

"Generally speaking, cultivation methods in the immortal cultivation world are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow, corresponding to the four major cultivation realms."

"Yellow-grade high-tier corresponds to a sword technique for the late stage of Refining Essence into Qi, enough for you to use until the late stage of Refining Essence into Qi."

"Of course, there have been many geniuses in the past who extended other sword techniques from the Heavenly Dipper Sword into the Heavenly Dipper Seeing Beidou Sword Scripture, which is a true Earth-grade cultivation method."

Hearing this, everyone nodded in realization, and Keqing cupped her hands and said:

"Thank you, Sect Master, for clearing up our confusion. Have you also come to the Scripture Depository, Sect Master?"

"Not yet, I am still cultivating; I just sent my divine sense out to check on you all."

Having said that, Jiang Yan's voice disappeared for a moment before saying again:

"Although there are many cultivation methods in the Scripture Depository, you do not need to worry about choosing; everything has its own predestined affinity in the dark."

"Follow your hearts, and you will find the cultivation method you want."

Zhongli pondered for a moment and said softly:

"I wonder what grade the Sword Control Art is?"

Jiang Yan seemed to smile silently, then said:

"No grade."

"No grade?"

Everyone was a bit puzzled.

Jiang Yan explained slowly:

"The Shushan Sword Control Art is a mandatory method for every Shushan disciple, but it itself belongs to the General Outline of the Shushan Sword Scripture."

"The Sword Control Art is a magical technique; how much power it can exert depends entirely on your own cultivation."

Simply put, the stronger the person, the stronger the Sword Control Art.

In Zhongli's hands, the current Sword Control Art might only be Yellow-grade, but in Jiang Yan's hands, it is at least Earth-grade.

The Sword Control Art itself is a very magical spell; if you say it is common, even the Shushan Sect Master is willing to cultivate it.

If you say it is strong, it is truly weak when used by weak people.

"I wonder what the General Outline of the Shushan Sword Scripture is..."

Ningguang suddenly asked curiously.

Before she could finish, Jiang Yan said faintly:

0 Begging for flowers 0

"Immortal arts of the upper realm are too far away for you; there is no need to overthink it."

Not just the General Outline of the Shushan Sword Scripture, even the Eight Divine Incantations are at least at the immortal art level.

The Divine Sword Controlling Thunder True Art is indeed an Heaven-grade cultivation method.

But right now, if Jiang Yan uses it, I fear he cannot even bring out the power of the Heaven-grade.

In the end, it is just a limitation of strength.

He is far from reaching the upper limit of the cultivation method.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan also wanted to cultivate with a calm heart, so he simply said at the end:

"Remember to follow your original heart; everything has its predestined affinity."

"If there are other urgent matters, just contact me through your disciple token."

This time, Jiang Yan's voice truly disappeared.

The crowd was used to Jiang Yan's elusive nature and did not think much of it.

Instead, Ningguang looked at Keqing and asked curiously:

"Do you want this Heavenly Dipper Sword?"

Keqing was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

"The Sect Master said that everything has its own predestined affinity in the dark; although my own sword path is not weak, it is ultimately not a method of immortal cultivation."

"Although this Heavenly Dipper Sword is only Yellow-grade high-tier, the Sect Master also said just now that a genius studied it into an Earth-grade cultivation method, the Heavenly Dipper Seeing Beidou Sword Scripture."

"I possess a sword body; why can others do it, but I cannot?"

"Even if I am powerless, there is still the Earth-grade cultivation method as a precedent; at worst, I will continue to cultivate that Earth-grade cultivation method when the time comes."

"But I feel this Heavenly Dipper Sword is very suitable for me; perhaps this is the predestined affinity the Sect Master spoke of."

Keqing saw things clearly, and Ningguang could not help but feel a little envious of her.

At the very least, Keqing already knew that she was devoted to the sword and had a clear direction for the future.

But she...

Just as she was pondering, Ningguang suddenly sensed a gust of wind attacking.
