Chapter 291: Fourth-Tier Book Gu, Virtual Book City

"The Book Gu has finally advanced to Fourth-Tier Low-Grade."

Zhou Sui was very excited.

Without a doubt, the importance of the Book Gu to him was self-evident.

If not for the help of the Book Gu, I am afraid his various Spirit-Refining Techniques could not have grown so quickly.

This is simply a super learning assistant.

Now that the power of the Book Gu has been upgraded, it represents an upgrade in the power of this super learning assistant.

The benefits gained from this are naturally immense as well.

At this moment, he was already impatient to know what kind of power the Fourth-Tier Book Gu actually possessed.

"After the Book Gu advanced to the Fourth-Tier realm, the internal space has evolved from the Xuni Tushuguan to the Virtual Book City." Zhou Sui stroked his chin; he had received a massive amount of information from the Book Gu and understood its many changes.

At this very moment, he moved his consciousness.

He felt his Soul instantly enter the internal space of the Book Gu.

Suddenly, he was shocked to discover that he had appeared inside a massive city, and the city was divided into many zones.

For example, the Alchemist zone was filled with all kinds of books on pills, as well as Pill Recipes.

People who appeared in this zone would see many books on pills and Inheritance Jade Slips.

This zone would even manifest numerous alchemy rooms, inside which were many, many Spirit Medicines.

If one stayed in a virtual alchemy room, one could simulate alchemy.

Besides this, there were also zones for Array Masters, Talisman Masters, Artifact Refiners, and so on.

In short, the entire Virtual Book City covered the hundred arts of cultivation.

Every zone represented a type of technique in the cultivation world.

"I've struck it rich, I've struck it rich, I've really struck it rich this time."

Zhou Sui was very excited.

Clearly, the Book Gu, having advanced to the Fourth-Tier realm, was truly far more powerful than before.

Entering the Virtual Book City, one could not only read the various virtual books inside and obtain countless knowledge.

At the same time, one could also simulate and train in various Spirit-Refining Techniques within the Virtual Book City.

One must know, why are professions like Talisman Master, Alchemist, and so on so rare in the cultivation world, and why are they all noble professions?

As long as one can become one of these professionals, one basically does not have to worry about food or clothing.

The main reason is that the cost is too high.

Take the Talisman Master for example; this can be considered the largest group among Cultivators.

After all, the threshold is relatively low.

But even so, wanting to become a qualified Talisman Master is not such a simple matter.

Because refining all kinds of Talismans also requires a large amount of Talisman materials, and there is also a success rate and a failure rate.

A beginner Talisman Master only has a success rate of ten or twenty percent, or even lower.

In this way, a large amount of Talisman materials would be wasted.

How could ordinary Cultivators bear such losses?

Over time, not many Cultivators dared to attempt refining Talismans.

Only sect forces and family forces could cultivate a proficient Talisman Master.

But now it is different.

If one enters the Virtual Book City, one can simulate refining Talismans and refining pills.

After the proficiency increases, one can then refine them in reality.

In this way, it would greatly reduce the cost of refining and make it more convenient for Cultivators to get started.

To a certain extent, the appearance of the Virtual Book City is simply a sacred training ground for many Cultivators.

With the help of the power of the Virtual Book City, one could cultivate a large number of Talisman Masters and Alchemists.

"Can it be used to cultivate sect Disciples?"

"Forget it, forget it, there is simply no need to do so."

"The most important thing for a Cultivator is to gather all great power within oneself; why would one need to cultivate a large number of sect Disciples?"

"This is an unnecessary matter."

"Moreover, if it were exposed, I am afraid it would make Xianxia City a target for everyone."

"It is enough to open it to my Dao Companion; there is no need for other Cultivators to enter the Virtual Book City."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

Although the power of the Book Gu is indeed strong, he did not intend to open it to other Cultivators.

Because this would easily expose the power of the Book Gu, thereby attracting the covetousness of other Cultivators.

Admittedly, relying on his current strength, ordinary Cultivators would not dare to covet the Treasure on his person.

But one cannot be too careful.

Who knows if there might be such a reckless fool?

As the saying goes, do not flaunt your wealth.

If there is no need, it is better not to leak one's trump cards; it is purely not worth the loss.

However, it is very necessary to open it to his Dao Companion.

After all, his Dao Companion's interests are closely linked to his own.

If he helps his Dao Companion improve their cultivation, it can also feed back to himself, forming a virtuous cycle.

"The power of the Fourth-Tier Book Gu is not just as simple as giving birth to the Virtual Book City."

"It seems it can also help me improve my comprehension even more."

"At the same time, compared to before, the duration of this comprehension is also extended by more than ten times."

"In other words, if I enter the Virtual Book City, I will be able to gain astonishing comprehension."

"Staying in the Virtual Book City to study will also lead to rapid progress, allowing me to quickly master various skills."

Zhou Sui clenched his fists.

To be honest, this kind of ability is exactly what he had been looking forward to.

After all, after advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm, various fourth-tier knowledge has also become much more difficult.

Ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators often need decades, or even hundreds of years of bitter cultivation, to break through the bottlenecks of Spirit-Refining Techniques and master relevant knowledge.

But staying in the Virtual Book City is different; it will cause his comprehension to receive a huge boost.

Thereby making it much easier and simpler for him to learn all kinds of Spirit-Refining Techniques.

It is simply an accelerator for cultivation, with infinite wonderful uses.

"The strength of the other Gu Insects has also increased significantly."

At this moment, Zhou Sui continued to sense the power of the other Gu Insects on his body.

The Clone Gu, Gold-Eating Insect, Dream Soul Gu, Dragon Elephant Gu, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu, Object Seeking Gu, Thunder Tribulation Gu, and other Gu Insects had also all advanced to the fourth-tier realm.

There is nothing much to say about their power.

Compared to before, their abilities and strength have naturally increased by more than several times.

It is equivalent to a further amplification.

Especially the Dream Soul Gu, Gold-Eating Insect, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu, and Thunder Tribulation Gu; they are the main combat forces and possess super-strong combat power. After advancing to the fourth-tier realm, they can also easily contend with Nascent Soul Cultivators.

The Clone Gu can also gestate more clones.

"By the way, the Object Seeking Gu has also advanced to the fourth-tier realm."

"In other words, its ability to find treasures has also become more powerful."

"Things that couldn't be found before might be found by the Four-Tier Object Seeking Gu."

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin, sensing the power of the Four-Tier Object Seeking Gu.

Obviously, he still wants to obtain many, many treasures, especially the main materials for refining Gu Insects.

All of them must rely on the power of the Object Seeking Gu to be found.

After all, these main materials are basically precious treasures that are difficult to find in the world.

Even a commercial organization like the Xuanbao Pavilion would likely be unable to find them.

But with the help of the Object Seeking Gu's power, they can all be found.

It is conceivable how formidable this type of Gu Insect is; it is simply infinitely useful.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui did not hesitate; he immediately activated the power of the Object Seeking Gu, attempting to find the main material for the Medicine Gu, Creation Jade Dew Water, because the Medicine Gu is of great use to him.

It is not just useful for the Nascent Soul Realm, but even for the Spirit Severing realm and even higher realms.

After all, no matter what realm a cultivator is in, they all need Millennium Spirit Herbs, or even ten-thousand-year spirit herbs.

It can be said that the Medicine Gu is extremely important and must be refined.

Boom~~

In an instant, the power of the Object Seeking Gu was immediately unleashed, and a piece of information instantly submerged into the depths of his consciousness, as if a compass had appeared, pointing to a distant region.

"No way, is it real or fake?"

"Judging by the location, it seems to be the site of the Kurong Sect's Transformation God Relic."

"How could it be in that place?"

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin.

Sure enough, just as he expected, after the Object Seeking Gu advanced to the fourth-tier low-grade realm, its object-seeking ability received a huge boost.

Previously, the Object Seeking Gu was completely unable to find Creation Jade Dew Water.

But now, it was able to easily find the specific location of this main material.

Obviously, after the Object Seeking Gu advanced to the fourth tier, it could find even more precious and rare treasures.

"Not bad, not bad; actually, this is also a good thing, at least it's relatively close."

"Searching high and low, only to find it without any effort."

"I am determined to obtain the Creation Jade Dew Water."

"I just don't know where it is."

"It wouldn't be on those Nascent Soul Ancestors, would it?"

"That is not impossible, after all, these Nascent Soul Ancestors have many treasures on them."

"Even if I really obtain the Creation Jade Dew Water, it is not an impossible matter."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

Obviously, if the Creation Jade Dew Water is right there at that Transformation God Relic, it is naturally a great thing.

After all, that Transformation God Relic has long been under his control, so it can be considered his own territory.

As long as he is willing, he can head to that Transformation God Relic at any time.

…………

Several more days passed.

Zhou Sui also finally consolidated his Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivation, and at the same time became familiar with the power of every Gu Insect on his body, only then walking out of his Cave Abode.

"What? Husband, you mean to say that you obtained a strange treasure named Book Mountain?"

"We can enter our consciousness into it, and then we can study many cultivation knowledge inside."

"And the efficiency of learning is several times higher than the outside world, and our comprehension will also receive a temporary boost."

At this moment, Ji Bingyu and the others were all looking at Zhou Sui with pleasant surprise.

They had not expected their husband to possess such a rare Treasure, and it was no wonder their husband was proficient in all kinds of cultivation knowledge; he was simply an all-around genius.

So it turned out it was all assisted by such a rare Treasure.

"That's right."

"Moreover, it doesn't just help you learn; it can also simulate the process of your cultivation."

"For example, you can simulate Alchemy, simulate Talisman making, simulate Artifact Refining, and so on inside."

"The materials inside can be used infinitely; once you have improved your Mastery, you can then use them in reality."

Zhou Sui briefly explained the power of the Book Gu.

Of course, he did not say this was the power of a Gu Insect, but rather that it came from a certain Treasure.

On the contrary, this explanation was easier for them to understand.

"Incredible, truly incredible."

"Such a Treasure is simply a sect-founding Treasure."

"With this kind of Treasure, wouldn't it be possible to continuously cultivate a large number of Cultivators?"

Leng Yuexi found it simply hard to believe.

She felt that such a supreme Treasure was fundamentally a sect-founding Treasure for cultivating a sect; with this Treasure, a large number of Cultivators would save countless costs.

Then Cultivators would be able to learn the hundred arts of cultivation more easily, and the benefits therein were naturally self-evident.

"As for that, this is a supreme Treasure."

"So, for the time being, other sect Disciples are not allowed to enter inside."

"Only you are allowed to enter."

"Lest word gets out and attracts the covetousness of other Cultivators."

Zhou Sui explained.

"That is indeed the case."

"Once a supreme Treasure like this is leaked, I fear many Nascent Soul Cultivators would swarm over."

"Unless Husband is a Spirit Severing Ancestor, it would be difficult to protect such a supreme Treasure."

Lin Yazhu also deeply agreed.

Such a supreme Treasure could be called a sect-founding Treasure.

Even the most foolish Nascent Soul Cultivator would know the value of this supreme Treasure.

They might even unite the power of many Nascent Soul Cultivators to pressure them together, and at that time, they might not be able to withstand it.

In the world of cultivation, what is truly important is actually high-end combat power.

No matter how many Qi Refining Cultivators there are, they cannot compare to one Nascent Soul.

Therefore, cultivating a large number of Cultivators is actually unnecessary.

On the contrary, if the number of Cultivators is too large, it will cause the entire world to consume a massive amount of cultivation resources.

It might even exacerbate the decline of the cultivation world.

It is precisely because of this that the world does not actually need so many Cultivators.

At the same time, there is no need to cultivate so many sect Disciples.

"Husband, I think it is also time to unify the three major sects."

At this moment, Shen Biqian looked at Zhou Sui with burning eyes.

"Unify the three major sects?"

Zhou Sui blinked his eyes.

"That's right, although our three major sects—Xianxia Sect, Pill Cauldron Sect, and Qingmu Sect—are now branches of the same family, they are ultimately just three sects, and there are still barriers between them."

"If we are still here, the three sects will not split."

"But once we leave, they will inevitably split, which is not good for the future of the sects."

"It just so happens that Husband has already advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm and already has the strength to integrate the three major sects."

Shen Biqian proposed her suggestion, which was also a plan she had been thinking about for a long time: to unify the three major sects and become a brand-new sect, a brand-new force.

Only in this way can the power of the three major sects be condensed together.

"But if that happens, by establishing a new sect, your orthodox lineages might disappear."

Zhou Sui asked.

"Let them disappear if they must."

"It is just a Golden Core lineage; what is the big deal if it disappears?"

"On the contrary, merging the three major sects to become a new Nascent Soul Sect is the greatest good."

"If Husband advances to the Spirit Severing realm, then it will be a Spirit Severing sect."

"I fear many Elders would be too happy to contain themselves."

Lin Yazhu did not care much about so-called reputations either; she was already a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and even the achievements of all the past Sect Masters of the Qingmu Sect could not compare to her at all; she was the strongest Cultivator of the Qingmu Sect in the past thousand years.

So she did not care what the ancestors of the Qingmu Sect through the ages thought.

"That's right, I also agree with this point."

"If it remains three major sects, it would be too fragmented and not in line with future interests."

"It is better to merge into a new sect."

Leng Yuexi nodded, also agreeing with this point.

"Good, since you all agree, then let's establish a brand-new sect."

"The name of this sect shall be Xuanhuang Sect."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin, immediately made a decision, and intended to change the name of this brand-new sect to Xuanhuang Sect.
