Killing God - Chapter 196

Chapter 196 Book Hall
“What’s the matter?” Shen Shi looked at Sun You’s expression and was stunned for a moment.

“You don’t know what that Zhong Qingzhu is like now. I get angry the moment I see her,” Young Friend Sun snorted twice and said angrily.

Shen Shi became even more puzzled. She recalled Zhong Qingzhu’s appearance from back then. She was clearly a gentle and delicate girl who even spoke softly. For a long time, she gave off the impression that she was the shy girl who had been following Zhong Qinglu. However, she didn’t know what had happened in these three years, and it actually caused Sun You to have such a reaction.

Young friend Sun looked at Shen Shi’s expression in his eyes. She snorted and said, “I don’t know if she was lucky or if she really has some talent. In any case, her talent wasn’t outstanding at the beginning of Bluefish Island. However, in the last year or two, Zhong Qingzhu suddenly exploded and rushed to the people who were the fastest to enter the Dao.” He glanced at Shen Shi and said, “You should still remember this, right?”

Shen Shi nodded. When he had left Qingyu Island unexpectedly, Zhong Qingzhu had already begun to show off. He still remembered this. After that, Sun You sneered and continued, “Originally, she was about to enter the realm soon. No one could say anything about her. Even after she went to Jinhong Mountain, Elder Le Jingshan of the Array Hall quickly officially accepted her as a disciple. Those of us who were from the same sect as her in the past can only be happy for her.” Who would have thought that since then, this eldest young miss seemed to have her eyes suddenly raised above the top. She usually doesn’t like to talk to ordinary disciples like us anymore. She is too lazy to speak when she meets us, and she occasionally says a few sarcastic words to each other with her cold eyes. “If it was just like that, I would have endured it. However, when she met those Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters who were at the Divine Concept, including those elders, she would change her expression. She was extremely respectful and gentle. I really couldn’t tell that she actually had such thoughts. Hehe.”

Shen Shi only frowned. Looking at Sun You’s appearance, he seemed to have received a lot of anger from Zhong Qingzhu. He felt very angry, and he did not expect that Zhong Qingzhu would really become like this in only three years.

This was not the slightest bit similar to the girl who had always smiled gently in his mind. Moreover, listening, Shen Shi seemed to faintly sense that something was amiss in Sun You’s words.

After muttering and complaining beside him for a long time, Young Friend Sun took him away from the viewing platform and left on the left side of the plaza. At the same time, he said, “I’ll take you to the ‘Grocery Pavilion’ to collect your belongings first, then go back to the library. At first, we’ll have to choose some Dao Arts and Divine Abilities.”

Shen Shi smiled and nodded. He thought that having such a friend to help guide him saved him a lot of trouble. However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly glanced at Sun You and said, “Sun You, you were so angry that Zhong Qingzhu’s eyes were above the top after he went up the mountain. Are you saying fake goodbye to you?”

Young Friend Sun shrugged his shoulders and said, “It’s not right to say’not fake ‘, but that’s more or less what you mean.”

Shen Shi smiled, patted his shoulder and said, “Did Zhong Qinglu tell you the news of my return yesterday? It seems that your relationship with her is fine.”

Young Friend Sun said, “Oh, it’s acceptable. When I was young, I used to quarrel with her on Bluefish Island. But now that I’ve gone up the mountain, she hasn’t changed much, and she won’t look down on people …”

His voice suddenly softened and his footsteps slightly paused. Shen Shi smiled and said, “Since there aren’t too many changes, in other words, Zhong Qinglu will stab you like before when she sees you now, won’t she?”

Sun You nodded and said, “It seems so. That person’s temperament is like that. She’s special …” He seemed to be unable to find a suitable word to describe Zhong Qinglu at once, and his words were a little stuck.

Shen Shi smiled and shook his head. He seemed a little helpless and somewhat funny. Sun You glared at him and said, “What kind of expression is this? Just tell me what you want to say.”

Shen Shi sighed and said, “I’m talking about you … Zhong Qinglu is the same as before. She stabs you from time to time. Although she doesn’t have any bad intentions, isn’t this a fake expression? It sounds like the current situation of Zhong Qingzhu. Why do you think that Zhong Qinglu is nice when you come here, but you can’t stand Zhong Qingzhu anymore?”

You Sun froze for a while and then frowned, “Hey, don’t tell me. I really didn’t think about this before. It seems like the two sisters are quite similar now when you say that. Then why do I feel differently?”

Shen Shi sneered. He turned around and walked forward. He said angrily, “Isn’t this obvious? You are used to being scolded by Zhong Qinglu, so it’s only natural for her to scold you. Zhong Qingzhu’s status is different from before, and she is no longer the lowly little girl. Normally, she would stab you a few times to refute her. You would think that her eyes are above the most hateful ones.”

Sun You instinctively opened his mouth to refute, only to find that he did not know what to say. He was stunned for a long time before he suddenly said, “Bah!” He said, “What the hell am I thinking about doing? Women are really troublesome.” Speaking of which, it turns out that these two women are not pleasing to my eyes now. Do you usually like to stab me and scold me twice before you feel happy? “What a mess!”

Shen Shi laughed loudly as he walked forward. Sun You complained along the way, chatting nonstop with him, his face full of misfortune.

The Miscellaneous Artifacts Pavilion was an entrance of the Ling Xiao Sect. As the name implied, it was just doing trivial things, but not all of them were like this. In fact, this two-story pavilion, which was several dozen feet behind the Sea Observation Platform, looked ordinary and square. There were quite a number of Ling Xiao Sect disciples that normally came and went.

This was because this was where all the disciples of the Soaring Firmament Sect received their monthly share of spirit crystals from the sect. As for a newly promoted Origin Condensation Realm disciple like Shen Shi, apart from receiving the fifteen spirit crystals this month, there was also another package. There were two sets of Ling Xiao Sect disciple costumes, a copy of Hai Zhou Geographic Records and a manual called Ling Xiao Disciple Rules.

Under the leadership of Young Master Sun, Shen Shi smoothly received his share of the item. From this, he could tell that Young Master Sun had known many connections in the past three years, including chatting and laughing with his senior brothers in the Grocery Pavilion. It seemed that his face was quite broad, and it was exactly the same as when he was on Bluefish Island.

Above, Shen Shi had always admired Sun You very much. In any case, he asked himself that he could not do this. After leaving the Miscellaneous Pavilion, Shen Shi also smiled and praised Sun You. Sun You was a little proud and praised himself, but then he shrugged and said,

“Sigh, actually, these so-called wide-eyed and knowledgeable people are all fake. At most, they know more information on a normal day. It’s just a little faster. If we really reach a critical juncture, there won’t be many people who will really stand with me. None of them can be considered true friends.” At this point, he turned around and looked at Shen Shi. His expression suddenly became somewhat solemn. He patted Shen Shi’s shoulder and said,

“Shitou, you’re different. I know, we’re friends.”

Shen Shi smiled and said, “We haven’t seen each other for three years. When we first met, we were young. Are you so sure?”

Young friend Sun pondered for a moment. After a moment of silence, he looked at Shen Shi and nodded solemnly. He said in a low voice, “That’s what I think. You’re different from the others.”

Seeing the seriousness of his words, the smile on Shen Shi’s face immediately disappeared. A trace of warmth flashed across his heart. He didn’t say anything further as he faced Young Friend Sun’s bright eyes. He only lightly nodded and patted the back of Young Friend Sun’s hand.

Sun Youyouxiang was suddenly in a good mood and suddenly became happy. He laughed loudly and waved his hand, saying, “Let’s go to the library!”

④

There were seven halls under Lingxiao Sect. The Pill Array Beast Book Technique was the most prominent and powerful of them. The Array Hall and the Spirit Beast Hall could not be underestimated. The disciples of the hall gathered together. Compared to the other three halls, the momentum of the latter three halls was much weaker.

The Hall of Books contained countless ancient books and scrolls, especially the main hall, Cloud Mountain Hall, which had the nickname “Book Sea”. There were countless and omnipresent books in it, and it was one of the two most famous stacks in the Primordial Chaos World. It was also known as “Book Mountain” in Yuanshi Sect. Legend has it that not only are the ancient books and records of the human race contained in these two stacks vast as the sea, they even contain many ancient scrolls from before the human era. In other words, those ancient books and rare books that were lost ten thousand years ago in the Heavenly Yao Royal Court were actually divided up by these two clans after the war between the human and demon races.

However, apart from these mountains of scrolls and ancient books, there were also many precious Dao technique manuals in the hall. According to the rules of the sect, every newly promoted Origin Condensation disciple could go to the hall to choose a Dao technique to cultivate as a self-defense technique. In the future, as Sun You had said earlier, there would be no such cheap good thing anymore.

However, to be honest, how could these Origin Condensation Realm Dao Art divine abilities be so easy to cultivate? Almost every Dao Art divine ability required cultivators to spend a lot of effort and effort to cultivate for a long period of time before they could completely grasp it. Therefore, it was an ancient saying that could not be chewed down. It was also a supreme saying in the cultivation world.

Perhaps it was because the library had always been quiet in the mouth of the seven halls, so Cloud Mountain Hall, otherwise known as the Sea of Books, was not near the busiest Guanhai platform. Sun You and Shen Shi had walked a long way, bypassing almost half of Golden Rainbow Mountain Peak, and only then did they see a towering large dome-shaped hall standing in front of them.

Cloud Mountain Hall’s three, It was written on the plaque of the hall. The surroundings of the hall were quiet. Looking around, it was filled with green ancient trees. Each of them were extremely sturdy. They were probably ancient trees that had hundreds of thousands or even longer lives. Before the hall, there were only a few stone steps. It was easy to walk up. It seemed that the threshold here was somewhat approachable and not high.

Unlike the other palaces where Lingxiao Sect’s immortal energy lingered, the moment Cloud Mountain Palace entered, a faint and strange fragrance floated into Shen Shi’s nose. It was an aura he had smelled when he was very young. It was ordinary and familiar, as if it had a bit more of a mortal scent.

That’s the scent of books.

Young friend Sun seemed to have a feeling of omniscience. Even when he arrived at the Cloud Mountain Palace’s library, he actually had a comfortable appearance. He brought Shen Shi into the main hall with him and found a female disciple of the library at the entrance. The two chatted in a low voice. The female disciple covered her mouth and chuckled softly. It seemed that Young Friend Sun had told a joke. She seemed to be in a good mood. Afterwards, Young Friend Sun smiled and turned around to point at Shen Shi who was standing behind him. The female disciple smiled and nodded her head. She walked over and smiled at Shen Shi and said,

“I heard from Friend Sun, are you here to choose a beginner Dao Art divine ability?”

Shen Shi didn’t dare to neglect him and said, “Yes.”

The female disciple casually went to a thin leather scroll from the side and handed it to Shen Shi. She smiled and said, “According to our sect’s rules, disciples who have just entered the Origin Condensation Realm can choose a Dao Art to defend themselves. However, it is limited to the Dao Cultivation Realm. It is roughly one of the seventeen types in this catalogue. Take a look at it yourself and choose one.” “In the future, when your cultivation level rises and your cultivation progresses, there will naturally be even more powerful Dao Arts and divine abilities that you can cultivate.”

Shen Shi respectfully took it and said, “Thank you, Senior Sister.”

The female disciple smiled and nodded. She turned around and walked away. Sun You came to pull Shen Shi to the side and sat down on a bench in the hall. “Everyone went up the mountain to cultivate these seventeen divine abilities. The same goes for me. However, it’s up to you to decide which one to choose. Let’s take a look first.”

Shen Shi nodded. He lowered his head and looked at the thin leather scroll in his hand. Perhaps it contained the direction of his future cultivation. He couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. However, after taking a deep breath, he quickly calmed down and gently opened the title page of the scroll.

A row of handwriting appeared in front of him from top to bottom. Golden light flashed, and spiritual energy faintly appeared. It was as if a gust of wind and clouds were quietly rolling past.
