"This is the Sword Canon Tower." Li Mu stepped inside, greeted by the faint scent of books.
The Sword Canon Tower resembled a conical pagoda. The higher one went, the smaller the space became, and the more precious the sword canons stored there were.
Rows upon rows of tall bookshelves stood neatly arranged, filled with a dazzling array of sword manuals and classics.
Quite a few gray-clad servants moved about inside, inspecting and maintaining stacks of books.
Others carried book chests out the door. Upon seeing Li Mu enter, they respectfully nodded before daring to pass by. They were taking the books outside the tower to air them on shelves.
"Sure enough, the claim of eight thousand sword canons is inflated. Many are merely theories on swordsmanship, notes, or incomplete copies... There are very few genuinely complete sword manuals."
