Dongyuan Sect, Outer Sect library.
The library was where the Dongyuan Sect stored all manner of cultivation method secret manuals, tales of strange beings, legends, and historical records.
The Inner and Outer Sects each had one.
The Outer Sect library held a small number of low-level cultivation methods, but most of its collection consisted of legends and other records. Few people ordinarily visited.
Thus, disciples generally distinguished the Inner and Outer Sect libraries by calling them the "Scripture Repository" and the "library," respectively.
On this day, Song Yan stepped into the library.
Several days had passed, and the dark waves of flame from the "inner demon" within the Two-Pole Realm had shown no unusual changes.
At this rate, it would probably take more than half a year for the little sword to repel the waves of flame covering its blade.
After finishing his basic spirit-refining and Qi-nurturing practice today, he had some miscellaneous items to sell at the market. Passing the Outer Sect library on his way, he stopped in to look for books about Sword Cultivators of High Antiquity.
The Complete Record of Immortal Dao Scenery covered a vast range of subjects, with a little of everything, but it contained only so much about ancient Sword Cultivators.
The Outer Sect library had five floors in total. Any Outer Sect Disciple could borrow any book within, including the low-level cultivation methods.
A scattering of Outer Sect Disciples were there at the moment, and no one was making a racket.
After all, an elder who preferred quiet presided over the library's top floor.
"I need to find some ancient texts..."
Song Yan swept his Divine Sense along as he walked, but the library simply held too many books...
"Junior Brother Song."
"Hmm...?"
Unsure whether he was being addressed, Song Yan
