Chapter 3211: Book Demon Takes Action

Ye Liuyun heard clearly; when some guards' Divine Sense was annihilated, a sigh was emitted.

"Collect all the armor!"

These void‑rank armor and weapons are all good items; Ye Liuyun will certainly not waste them.

Later, the Martial Cultivators scouting ahead encountered many such guards, but by using Spiritual Soul Attacks they could easily annihilate those Divine Senses. Along the way they collected plenty of armor.

Soon they reached the area before the Royal Palace Grand Hall; the golden‑armored guards there were more numerous and stronger. Yet they still could not withstand Spiritual Soul Attacks and were easily wiped out completely by the scouting Martial Cultivators. Ye Liuyun took the opportunity to collect even more void‑rank armor and weapons.

The entire Royal Palace Grand Hall fell silent again.

Ye Liuyun activated his Golden Pupil, carefully scanned the Grand Hall, and then told Luo Yu and the other Martial Cultivators: "The Grand Hall's Defense Array is still active, and it seems there are other formations inside. Let's go elsewhere first and return to the Grand Hall later."

Ye Liuyun's Soul sensed the strong energy fluctuations inside the Grand Hall and thought the Primordial Power of this Secret Realm might be within, so he planned to investigate the Grand Hall at the end.

They immediately changed direction, rushed to the Library, and first went to look for techniques. The journey was smooth, with no obstacles.

The dynasty's Library also had a Defense Array active, though not as strong as that of the Grand Hall. Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, did not reveal his Technique, and instead released a nine‑headed demon dragon, instructing it to use the Technique to bombard the formation's focal point and break the array.

Then he had most of the Martial Cultivators guard outside, allowing only three to go in first to investigate. The Library's doors were opened; inside three floors were lined with tiered bookshelves holding various books, most of which were techniques.

After a quick glance, Ye Liuyun began planning how to use these techniques. The royal Library contains the most classic techniques of the dynasty, which for ordinary Martial Cultivators is a huge treasure. Even the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance covets them.

After the three Martial Cultivators entered and inspected, finding no danger, they came out to wait. Ye Liuyun then entered with Luo Yu, searching for the technique that cultivates True Essence.

However, what surprised Ye Liuyun was that when he and Luo Yu entered

into it, the Ten Thousand Gods Command in his Sea of Consciousness burst into Golden Light.

"Illusion Technique?"

Ye Liuyun was also curious, but did not notice any change in his surroundings.

At that moment, the Book Demon that had been dormant in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly stirred. Biquku

"Hahaha, kid, leave this place to me to handle. There are more than ten Book Demons here; although they aren't very strong, they hide well, making them troublesome for you. Deal with them for me, and you can help me regain strength!" the Book Demon began communicating with Ye Liuyun.

He sensed the presence of his kind here, which awakened him; he hopes to boost his own power through the Book Demons here.

"Fine!" Ye Liuyun immediately agreed.

The Book Demon had helped him last time and was badly wounded; now there was a chance for it to recover, so Ye Liuyun naturally would not refuse.

Moreover, the illusion technique employed by the Book Demons here was indistinguishable from the real environment, so handing it over

to the Book Demons to deal with saved him effort.

The Book Demon immediately leapt out of Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, employed Time Power to freeze time, and then began searching everywhere.

After Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul Power increased, he could move freely under the Book Demon's time‑stasis, and could see the Book Demon's movements.

He saw it dash into several books on the shelves and emerge again, moving at extreme speed as if running wildly. Yet he noticed that a few books on the shelves suddenly began to fade away.

"So the illusion technique merely added a few extra books!" Ye Liuyun finally explained; the illusion he fell under was just a few additional books.

And one of those books was being held by Luo Yu, who wore a delighted expression.

Afterwards, the Book Demon went straight up to the second floor. After a while, it returned satisfactorily to Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness. Ye Liuyun saw that his Soul's form had clearly grown a notch larger, restored to its previous state.

"All dealt with! I'll sleep a while longer and can recover, even becoming stronger than before. However, the book you seek isn't here; these are just ordinary techniques."

After returning, the Book Demon gave Ye Liuyun another brief instruction, then fell silent again, and the Time Flow Speed returned to normal.

With a Book Demon taking action, Ye Liuyun was much more at ease. He didn't have to do anything, just let the Book Demons

be dealt with, saving them a great deal of time. Otherwise, searching for that technique book by book would waste a lot of time.

"Huh? The book? I clearly just found that technique!"

At this moment, Luo Yu spread their hands and exclaimed in surprise.

"You just fell under an illusion. There's no technique we're looking for here!" Ye Liuyun explained.

"Illusion? How do you know the book we need isn't here?" Luo Yu didn't doubt Ye Liuyun; they have a contract, and if Ye Liuyun finds the book, he won't withhold it from her.

"There are some Book Demons here that cast illusion techniques. Their illusion is sophisticated, blending with the real environment, only producing a few extra books to trick people. Biquku

I just eliminated them, so the illusion vanished. I also performed a Soul Search on them and learned that the book isn't here."

Ye Liuyun could only tell a small lie, deceiving Luo Yu.

"Oh!" Luo Yu replied. After learning the truth, they felt a bit disappointed.

"Do you need any of these books? If not, I'll take them all away!" Ye Liuyun asked Luo Yu directly, not wanting to waste more time here.

"I have techniques; you can take these as you wish!" Luo Yu wasn't reluctant and wasn't interested in these techniques.

So Ye Liuyun, unceremoniously, waved his hand and swept away an entire layer of books together with the shelves. He then went up to the second and third floors. The techniques on the upper floors were of higher grades; he didn't examine them individually, just took them all and handed them to Space World's Wu Qingcheng and others for sorting.

The group could freely pick any useful techniques. Those they didn't need were given to Ye Ling to deliver to the natives of his Space World. For Martial Cultivators of the Divine Realm, these are treasures; at least these techniques can let them all reach the Unification Realm.

After that, they immediately left and rushed toward the Treasure Vault inside the Royal Palace.

On the way to the Treasure Vault, they encountered many golden‑armored guard blockades, which again supplied Ye Liuyun with plenty of void‑rank armor and weapons.

【49】 "The forging level of the Hongtian Dynasty before was not weak; the palace guards are all equipped with void‑rank armor and weapons. I wonder what good things are inside the Treasure Vault!" Ye Liuyun was full of anticipation about the vault.
