Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 507 - 334 Ear-plugging in the Book Pavilion and Heart-picking with Spicy Hands
Chapter 507: Chapter 334 Ear-plugging in the Book Pavilion and Heart-picking with Spicy Hands
Gu City, also known as Chu King City, is located fifty miles east of Chu State City and is one of the four major satellite cities.
This city spans nearly three hundred miles, with abundant spiritual energy within its walls and gorgeous pavilions and towers that stretch continuously; moreover, numerous Blessed Lands and spiritual realms are present.
Gu City is home to only over forty thousand inhabitants, all of whom are members of the Gu Family’s direct lineage within three generations.
Near high noon, the sunlight was scorching.
A massive white-winged roc screamed from afar and flew over Gu City, circled once, then rapidly descended into a luxurious mansion.
Soon after, Zhao Sheng and Gu Yu walked into the living room, talking and laughing together.
“Senior Wuying, please have some tea first. I will immediately go to see my great-grandfather,”
“Mr. Gu, go ahead. I’ll wait here for the good news,” replied the elder.
After these brief exchanges, Gu Yu excitedly turned and left.
After approximately an hour, Gu Yu returned to the living room, his face beaming with joy.
“Haha! I have completed the task! Senior Wuying, please follow me!”
“Thank you,” replied the senior.
…
A short time later, the two stopped in front of a building complex that extended for over ten miles.
Gu Yu took out a Dragon Carving Token and signalled to four giant armored puppets standing at the gate.
Following that, the puppets’ eyes dimmed in red color, and gently, a path wide enough for two people emerged.
Zhao Sheng and the other man entered through the door, passed through two layers of prohibition barriers, and eventually arrived in front of a grand and sturdy stone tower.
At that moment, an old man with the appearance of a young boy lying leisurely on a bamboo rocking chair, basking in the sun, was situated at the front of the stone tower.
Gu Yu approached cautiously and crouched next to the rocking chair, “Great Grandfather, Thirteen is here to see you.”
“You little rascal. Have the rules of our family become mere decorations nowadays? How can you bring outsiders into Zhenlang Pavilion!” A soft and sinister voice suddenly filled the air, causing Zhao Sheng’s scalp to tingle, a chill rising within him!
Danger, extreme danger!
This person was undoubtedly one of the foundations of the Gu Family, with cultivation at least above the Golden Core stage.
Gu Yu’s forehead perspired heavily as he quickly explained, “Great Grandfather, please don’t misunderstand! Senior Wuying has accepted my invitation to become a guest elder of our family. The family head has already consented. Senior only wishes to view the collection in Zhenlang Pavilion for three hours and will not violate any taboos.”
“Alright! I was just asking casually. You’re panicking over nothing. Have you forgotten the eight characters of ‘Unperturbed Mind, Calm even when Heaven falls’ from the Nether God Technique?!” The old man slightly sat up and reprimanded.
“You’re right to chastise me, Great Grandfather! Thirteen’s mental state has not yet reached the required level, but I will certainly train more diligently henceforth,” Gu Yu assured repeatedly.
The elder glanced at Zhao Sheng and nodded slightly, “Hmm, you’ve got a good eye! This man’s abilities are barely satisfactory. Fine, go in!”
“Thank you for your kindness, Great Grandfather!” Gu Yu exclaimed joyfully.
Zhao Sheng also gave a salute, “Junior Wuying thanks the elder for the grace shown.”
Boom!
The stone tower’s door slowly opened, making a rumbling sound.
Zhao Sheng nodded to Gu Yu, then stepped up the stone stairs, successfully entering Zhenlang Pavilion.
As soon as he entered the tower, the stone door behind him closed with a bang; numerous Spiritual Pearls suddenly lit up, illuminating the dim space.
Endless shelves filled with books and ancient scrolls, jade scrolls, Jade Dishware, and stele rubbings were densely packed, stretching to the end of sight. Nearby desks were piled with countless fragments and Ancient Bone Fragments, etched with strange and mysterious symbols.
Zhenlang Pavilion, originating from the Daoist Tower, houses over twenty classes including Spells, Elixirs, Tools, Arrays, Symbols, Control Techniques, Techniques, secret records, and more, each sub-divided into various subjects, totaling over a thousand categories.
As if he had premeditated, Zhao Sheng walked straight to the Cultivation Techniques section upon entering and started searching along the rows of shelves.
“It really is here!”
Moments later, his eyes brightened and he waved his hand; a jade scroll suddenly flew off the shelf into his hand.
Diving his Divine Sense into it, numerous pieces of information flooded his mind, revealing to be the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core chapters of the “Red Lotus Karma Fire Scripture.”
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
Three hours passed in a blink.
As the stone door opened again, Zhao Sheng, with a face full of regret, placed the scroll back on the shelf, then stepped out.
Gu Yu approached him with a smile, “Senior Wuying, how fruitful was this excursion?”
“Zhenlang Pavilion indeed encompasses everything; this trip has been very rewarding,” Zhao Sheng stated with feigned joy.
After paying their respects to the old guardian, the two left Zhenlang Pavilion.
Watching their fading figures, the youthful-looking elder muttered, “This person is quite sensible, knowing some secret scrolls are not for him to see and thus deliberately avoiding them. Little Thirteen has indeed done something right, very good!”
Afterward, Zhao Sheng accompanied Gu Yu to meet with Gu Dongdian, the Family Head of the Gu Family.
The two hit it off immediately and enjoyed a pleasant conversation.
As night fell, Zhao Sheng excused himself for having matters to attend to, politely declined the Gu Family’s insistence to stay, and then drifted away.
…
In the fourteenth layer of the Divine Prison.
A shadow suddenly emerged from the ground.
Indistinct and elusive, it carried an elixir pill in its mouth, seemingly unaffected by the intense prohibition barriers of the prison.
After carefully determining the direction, the shadow moved like a stealthy rat, swiftly reaching the door of cell number three.
“Squeak, squeak!”
Following a barely audible squeak, the shadow emerged with a layer of black light, displayed its innate Spell, and astonishingly slipped through the cold iron door into the cell.
