Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 392 - 391: Stalking?!
As he stepped into the Library Pavilion, Gu Yuan felt a faint wave skim across his body.
At the same time, it swept over the identity token at Gu Yuan’s waist, and then he immediately felt the resistance blocking his path vanish completely, becoming unimpeded.
Evidently, his identity token was the key and the credential to enter this Library Pavilion.
Gu Yuan glanced around the first floor and noticed that there were many people on the first floor, all searching the rows of bookshelves for the tomes they needed.
Gu Yuan approached a bookshelf, casually took out a book on a cultivation technique, and began to read.
Hmm, "Ox Demon’s Mighty Fist," a top-notch technique for refining skin, refining tendons, and bone refining.
This is a top-grade technique that could allow ordinary people to cultivate all the way to Innate Martial Master, thoroughly and perfectly tempering the skin, muscles, and bones.
If it were in the past, before Gu Yuan started cultivating, obtaining this technique would have made him very happy.
However now...
Gu Yuan shook his head and put the "Ox Demon’s Mighty Fist" back in its place.
This kind of martial arts technique actually held no significance for him anymore.
Unless it was a serious cultivation Daoist Scripture, it might offer him some benefits; at the very least, it could provide some ideas and references for cultivation. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Because Gu Yuan’s current cultivation and Dao practice was beyond what an ordinary Martial Master could imagine.
After briefly checking nearby, Gu Yuan did find some cultivation techniques and even Divine Power Techniques.
However... these techniques and divine methods were either common, even quite crude, or incomplete, so they held no meaning for Gu Yuan.
Only some servant disciples or outer disciples might consider cultivating them to enhance their strength.
Gu Yuan did not hesitate, put down the book in his hand, and went straight up to the second floor.
After arriving on the second floor, Gu Yuan noticeably felt that there were far fewer people, and it was much quieter.
Additionally, the quality and level of the books on the second floor were evidently higher.
Gu Yuan didn’t linger long and went directly to the cultivation scripture area to start choosing.
Soon, Gu Yuan found two tomes, one of which was about thunder techniques, useful for enriching Gu Yuan’s knowledge and foundation concerning thunder skills.
Gu Yuan’s thunder technique had already reached an extremely profound realm; he had cultivated the prototype of Great Divine Techniques, Chaos Divine Thunder. But he ultimately achieved this great divine technique prototype by taming the Purple Heaven Thunder Spider and absorbing the Thunder Tribulation Vine.
In reality, Gu Yuan’s foundation in thunder techniques wasn’t particularly solid, somewhat weak, so he needed to find a way to make up for this.
Otherwise, neglecting the foundation in cultivation would make it hard for Gu Yuan to genuinely turn this great divine technique prototype into a full great divine technique. Wasting such a fine great divine technique would be too regrettable.
Luckily, having joined Medicine King Mountain, its Library Pavilion was not short of some thunder technique cultivation scriptures. While most were somewhat ordinary, Gu Yuan didn’t need anything too profound in a Daoist Scripture, only the basics.
The other book was a personal diary left by a previous sword cultivator.
Gu Yuan’s thunder technique could not be underestimated, and his swordsmanship was even more crucial!
The swordsmanship notes and cultivation experiences of others were definitely worth Gu Yuan’s contemplation and reference.
So choosing these two books proved quite useful to him.
Holding the two books, Gu Yuan didn’t linger and left the second floor, exiting the Library Pavilion.
As for registering the two books he "borrowed"?
There was no need at all; Gu Yuan’s identity token had already automatically recorded the event, but next time Gu Yuan wants to "borrow" more books, it won’t be that easy and will require spending sect contribution points.
These sect contribution points are earned by disciples through completing tasks or awarded by elders and can be exchanged for various spirit pills, spirit medicines, spiritual materials, or to borrow precious cultivation scriptures.
...
After leaving the Library Pavilion, Gu Yuan headed out of the mountain.
After walking a distance, Gu Yuan decisively harnessed his escape light and left the vicinity of Medicine King Mountain.
He then ascended higher on his escape light, heading straight for Chenghua Mansion and more precisely, the Cang Family.
As Gu Yuan left, some observant individuals also noticed this scene.
"Hmm?"
After flying for about a thousand miles, Gu Yuan suddenly sensed something was off and vaguely felt that someone seemed to be following from behind.
The person far behind looked sneaky and was well hidden; Gu Yuan’s divine thought swept past and found nothing.
Yet, his spiritual sense was keen, subtly feeling some things.
"Ha... trying to track me?"
Gu Yuan couldn’t be bothered to care about who this person trailing him was or their purpose; he simply willed his escape light to multiply in speed several times, easily leaving the stalker far behind.
Once he had shaken off the tail, Gu Yuan changed directions several times, concealing his aura and scent, ensured no one was following, and only then continued flying forward.
The distance from Chenghua Mansion to Medicine King Mountain’s gate wasn’t close; even at Gu Yuan’s current cultivation speed, it would take over ten days at a normal pace.
Of course, if fully powered using the prototype of the Great Divine Technique Eternal Divine Escape, this speed could be shortened tenfold!
However, this would often consume a lot and might induce unnecessary trouble.
Besides, the Cang Family’s matters weren’t so urgent, so Gu Yuan simply flew at a normal pace.
Meanwhile, he took out the two books he had taken earlier and began to read.
With Gu Yuan’s current cultivation and Dao practice, multitasking was exceedingly simple, and flying didn’t require much thought.
After a few days, Gu Yuan casually put away the books he had finished reading, feeling somewhat uninterested.
Though these books were indeed good and held some value even for him, they weren’t particularly profound, and with Gu Yuan’s enlightenment, he could easily understand them and integrate the knowledge.
"Once I become a True Disciple, I will be able to freely access the second floor of the Library Pavilion and read as long as I desire."
Thinking this, Gu Yuan continued flying forward.
But as he flew, his heart stirred, and he looked down not far below.
He saw two figures below, one in front and one chasing behind.
If it were just this, it wouldn’t be significant; in such situations, Gu Yuan typically wouldn’t interfere, especially with the karma between other cultivators.
However, the two figures below were not all human, or rather, the front one was an ordinary cultivator, but the one behind was a demon.
More accurately, it was a zombie, and not just any zombie—a corpse demon!
The Corpse Demon is a special variation of zombie, possessing rare demonic traits, transformed from a cultivator’s corpse under special circumstances, far more dangerous than ordinary zombies.
