Chapter 153: Young Master, Come Play Again Next Time

Imperial Palace.

Songhe Mountain House.

The eunuch on duty took the token and looked at it, saying to Yin Qi: "Songhe Mountain House has two floors; this pass of yours can access both, but you only have two hours. Within two hours, you can memorize as much as you can. You can copy, but you cannot take the originals."

"Okay."

Yin Qi nodded and asked: "I would like to know the difference between the first and second floors?"

While asking, he secretly handed over a hundred-tael gold note.

The eunuch on duty accepted it without a trace, the smile on his face becoming sunny, and he explained earnestly: "Young Master, our Songhe Mountain House has tens of thousands of books, not only martial arts and Daoist methods but also miscellaneous books on alchemy, artifact refining, arrays, etc.

Secret manuals below Innate Organ Refining and below Object Manipulation are all collected on the first floor.

Secret manuals above Innate Organ Refining and above Object Manipulation, as well as books on alchemy, artifact refining, arrays, etc., are all on the second floor.

However, secret manuals above Martial Saint and Ghost Immortal are not here."

Songhe Mountain House is the Royal Scripture Repository, which is actually open to all powerful nobles; the Emperor of Gan often rewards the qualification to read in the Songhe Mountain House to powerful nobles and officials in the court to show favor.

But the Emperor of Gan also has selfish motives and cannot truly open all secret manuals to the public.

Therefore, secret manuals above Martial Saint and Human Immortal are secretly collected by the Emperor of Gan, and to this day, only the royal family has been bestowed with them.

"Thank you!"

Yin Qi bowed and walked in with big strides.

Just as he passed the eunuch on duty, he heard a slight voice: "Young Master can read for a while longer; this servant will call you out in two and a half hours."

Yin Qi's eyes lit up; this hundred-tael gold note was well spent.

After entering the Songhe Mountain House, Yin Qi headed straight for the second floor.

As soon as he went up to the second floor, he sensed a very slight and long breathing sound, but it was also very heavy and powerful; this was a very contradictory feeling.

"The old Martial Saint from last night!"

Yin Qi understood in his heart; he didn't show any strangeness and looked around at the bookshelves.

Compared to the first floor, there were far fewer bookshelves on the second floor, and the intervals between them were also very large; each bookshelf was marked with labels, which were Martial, Dao, Alchemy, Artifact, Array, and Miscellaneous.

"Two and a half hours, which is five hours."

"Enough!"

Yin Qi didn't waste time and headed straight for the martial arts bookshelf.

There were probably three or four thousand books on this bookshelf; he didn't need to read them all, just spending an hour reading dozens would be enough, because he didn't lack martial arts techniques, just wanted to understand the world's martial arts more and learn from others' strengths.

On this martial arts bookshelf, there were also labels, such as Great Zen Temple, Supreme Dao, Creation Dao, Heaven-Reaching Dao, Mysterious Yin Dao, Peach God Dao, etc., including both world-famous Sacred Lands and ordinary sects in the Jianghu, and even secret manuals of vanished sects.

Yin Qi was overjoyed; this saved him time in searching.

Walking to the Great Zen Temple techniques, Yin Qi picked up a book called "Vajra Subduing Demon Skill" and flipped through it quickly.

With his genius-level comprehension, he could read ten lines at a glance and never forget.

"Vajra Subduing Demon Skill," theoretically, can be cultivated to Martial Saint, but there is nothing above Martial Saint, and this is a horizontal training technique that can forge a Vajra body; when completed, one can be invulnerable to knives and guns, with blood and qi as full as a dragon and elephant.

It can be said that besides lacking a cultivation method for Martial Saint, the level of this technique is above the Yin family's "Dragon Elephant Technique."

"Vajra Subduing Demon Skill," "Formless Tribulation Finger," "Great Might Heavenly Dragon Fist," "Thousand Leaf Palm," etc., one by one, the techniques of the Great Zen Temple were quickly memorized in Yin Qi's mind.

If this were placed outside, any one of them would be enough to set off a bloody storm.

Of course, the Great Zen Temple was wiped out by Great Gan, and its foundation was emptied by the imperial court, so the techniques of this Great Zen Temple were the most numerous, with over a hundred books, which was the accumulation of thousands of years of the Great Zen Temple.

After reading the Great Zen Temple's, Yin Qi continued to read the Supreme Dao's.

There were not many techniques, only three, which were "Infant Reporting Skill," "Jade Liquid Marrow Irrigation Technique," and "Spirit Turtle Breathing Method."

Next were the Peach God Dao, Xuantian Pavilion, Jingyuan Temple, Zhengang Sect, and other Sacred Lands; they also collected many of their techniques here, and each had more than a dozen books.

Great Gan had to deal with various Sacred Lands, capturing their disciples and forcing out techniques was nothing unusual.

After an hour, Yin Qi had memorized nearly two hundred secret manuals.

Subsequently, he turned to the cultivation secret manuals.

Similarly, the bookshelf for cultivation secret manuals was also the most numerous with the Great Zen Temple's.

Yin Qi only picked the secret manuals of Sacred Lands and large sects to read, and also memorized more than two hundred secret manuals, and finally continued to walk toward the alchemy bookshelf.

Compared to "Dao" and "Martial," the alchemy books were pitifully few, totaling only a hundred or so, most of which were records of various medicinal herbs and minerals; the real alchemy books were only twenty or so.

Not only that, these pill formulas were also ordinary pills, such as those for treating internal injuries, stopping bleeding, and removing blood stasis.

Yin Qi felt like he had read for nothing.

The artifact refining and array books were not much better; Yin Qi just picked some to read at will.

On the contrary, there were many valuable things in the miscellaneous books.

Such as secret manuals on entering the Dao through calligraphy, entering the Dao through painting, entering the Dao through music, etc., which were very niche and very difficult to cultivate, but could greatly expand a person's horizons.

After finishing the miscellaneous books, Yin Qi saw that there was still time, so he continued to return to read martial arts and Daoist secret manuals.

To avoid suspicion, in the last time, he took out paper and pen and copied a fist technique called "Great Might Heavenly Dragon Fist," which was an extremely rigid and fierce fist technique of the Great Zen Temple.

Combined with the Yin family's "Dragon Elephant Technique," it could fully exert its power.

Coming out of the Songhe Mountain House, Yin Qi secretly handed another hundred-tael gold note to the eunuch on duty, making the eunuch on duty smile like a flower, wishing he could greet him with "Young Master, come play again next time."

………

When he came out of the Imperial Palace, it was already afternoon.

Yin Qi found a restaurant to eat, and then returned to the Yin Duke Mansion.

As soon as he entered the door, a servant said: "Thirteenth Young Master, the Duke sent word, please go to the Xinwu Pavilion after you return to the mansion."

Yin Qi nodded and came to the Xinwu Pavilion.

"Father!"

"Thirteenth is back; this time you went to the Songhe Mountain House, what secret manuals did you copy?"

Yin Tiancheng said kindly, smiling all over his face.

Yin Qi said: "Copied a "Great Might Heavenly Dragon Fist," which matches our family's "Dragon Elephant Technique" quite well."

Yin Tiancheng nodded and said: "Mm, that fist technique is not bad; I have also heard of it. By the way, many people sent gifts today to congratulate you on cultivating to the Marrow Refining Grandmaster level; I have already had people send the things to your courtyard."

Yin Qi just hummed and said: "Father must have other things, right."

Yin Tiancheng said: "Mm, you are also sixteen years old, at the age to get married. Everyone saw your performance last night, so many people want to marry into our family. I don't find it easy to agree to any one family directly, so as not to offend others, so I thought about letting you interact with them more; whoever you take a fancy to is who it will be."

Yin Qi frowned, finally nodded, and said: "Father, I don't oppose this matter, but the imperial examination is coming up soon, and I must prepare for the exam with all my strength. This matter needs to wait until after the imperial examination."

He didn't oppose things like blind dates.

Since they could be pushed out by various families to go on a blind date with him, they must all be first-class beauties.

This is not modern society, where one can only have one husband and one wife.

In the future, when he meets someone he likes, he will just marry her.

Yin Tiancheng thought for a while, nodded earnestly and said: "Mm. What you said is also true; the imperial examination is important. Thirteenth, you just study seriously; I will communicate with each family about this matter, and I believe they are also happy to see you pass the examination." ===== CHAPTER 154 =====
