"It's not impossible for me to have this sword back," Shen Ge said calmly. "But that's on the condition that your offer is enough to entice me."

"Are you sure?" Bai Shu asked seriously. "You should know the value and wonder of this sword. You're willing to give up such a divine weapon?"

Shen Ge glanced at the sword in his hand and smiled, "The sword is indeed excellent, and it is certainly a great help to me. However, it's not like I can't give it up."

At this point, the starlight around the Southern Splendor Sword dimmed, and at the same time, mournful sword cries rang out, as if begging Shen Ge not to abandon it.

"Look, the divine sword has a spirit. Are you still planning to abandon it?" Bai Shu said with a wry smile, pointing at the Sword Dao.

"So what? It was just an accidental acquisition, a sword that's practically useless." Shen Ge tossed the Southern Splendor Sword, and it floated directly in front of Bai Shu.

"Senior Bai, what do you think the value of this sword is?"

Bai Shu looked at Southern Splendor Sword with a thoughtful expression. After a long while, he raised his hand, grasped the hilt, and gently stroked the blade. Although the longsword continued to vibrate and hum, it could not escape his grasp.

"Young friend Shen, since you've put it that way, then please proceed to our Dao Repository Academy."

"OK."

A few breaths later, thanks to the key on Bai Shu's body, the three of them entered the Dao Repository Academy directly, and even went to the core area deep inside.

In front of a wooden building, the three revealed themselves. Bai Shu looked at the building and said, "This is the scripture repository of our Dao Repository Academy. It contains all the Cultivation Method and secret manuals of our Dao Repository Academy since its founding. Young friend Shen, how about I let you go in and study for five years? Do you think this condition is worth the value of this sword?"

"It includes all the Daoist scriptures your Dao Repository Academy has contained since its founding." Shen Ge nodded and said, "That sounds good, I agree."

"Then you..." Bai Shu was about to ask a question, but Shen Ge waved his hand and said, "Senior Bai, let's go in now, and you don't need to worry about me afterwards."

"Don't worry, I know the rules. We won't copy anything from here."

Seeing Shen Ge, Bai Shu shook his head helplessly and said, "Then please make yourself at home, young friend."

Immediately, Bai Shu waved his hand to break the array shield of the scripture pavilion and gestured for Shen Ge and the other person to enter.

Upon entering the Scripture Pavilion, Shen Ge immediately used his divine sense to roughly scan the entire pavilion.

"Hmm?" Shen Ge frowned slightly. His Divine Sense could only detect the Cultivation Method on the lower fifty floors. He couldn't see any of the upper floors because his Divine Sense was blocked.

"Don't bother trying. I reckon you'll have to explore the books one by one yourself. Don't even think about reading them all at once. After all, this Dao Repository Academy is an academy; they can't let anyone who comes in see all the Cultivation Method in one go," Bai Lili said, beckoning. At the same time, two streams of light landed in her hands from the twenty-third floor.

"The two Cultivation Method, ' The All Splendor Fades ' and ' The Ten Thousand Zhang of Red Dust,' are quite interesting." Bai Lili glanced at them, then turned to Shen Ge and said, "You can do whatever you want; I'll study these two first."

Both Cultivation Method Bai Lili chose were illusion techniques, and in terms of quality, both far surpassed all the treasures in their Hehuan Sect's collection.

Moreover, Bai Lili herself came from a background in illusion magic, so she was naturally interested in it as well.

Shen Ge glanced at the Cultivation Method in Bai Lili's hand, and for some reason, it made him frown. Illusion? Why do I feel a little disgusted by her playing with illusions?

Could it be that in my sealed memories, I suffered from her illusions?

But Shen Ge didn't say anything in the end. She just slowly flew up to the upper floor and began to select books one by one.

outside world.

Bai Shu quietly watched the Scripture Pavilion being enveloped by the array once again. Before he knew it, seven or eight figures had gradually appeared beside him.

These people all exuded no aura, and at a glance, they all appeared perfectly round and plump, just like ordinary mortals.

But they are no ordinary people; they are all powerful cultivators at the Body Integration Realm.

Body Integration Realm, one becomes perfectly round and unified, with one's aura merging into a single entity. One has truly transcended the mortal world and can live for up to 50,000 years. In the eyes of mortals, one can be considered a true immortal who overlooks the long river of time and watches it flow by.

"What did that kid mean by just handing over the Southern Splendor Sword like that? Doesn't he know the power of this sword?"

"He's not unaware of it, I feel he just looks down on it. Ha, what a proud and arrogant little fellow."

"Alright, now that Southern Splendor Sword is back, regardless of what that kid's motives are, we've already achieved our goal."

At this moment, the Southern Splendor Sword in Bai Shu's hand emitted a dazzling starlight. The next instant, Bai Shu released his grip, and the Southern Splendor Sword transformed into a beam of starlight that shot into the depths.

Outside the Sutra Repository, several Body Integration Realm exchanged glances, and then their figures slowly dissipated, leaving only Bai Shu behind.

To come Traceless a trace—not many people can do that before reaching the Body Integration Realm.

Bai Shu glanced at the Sutra Repository, shook his head, and then his figure gradually dissipated.

Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, inside the Sutra Repository, Bai Lili was surrounded by a mysterious and enigmatic aura, resembling a fairy, a god, a ghost, a demon, and even a monster.

Alluring, sacred, solemn, holy, evil, tyrannical... a variety of qualities are manifested in her.

After a long while, all these qualities coalesced, and Bai Lili became calm and serene.

"A thousand years of dreams, Ten Thousand Zhang of Red Dust; the mortal world, a vast expanse of life, a hundred different facets." Bai Lili opened her eyes, a trace of vicissitude flashing within them. "What a All Splendor Fades splendor in the mortal world! Combined with the Cultivation Method I practice, it's enough to simulate countless lifetimes of Samsara. Truly terrifying."

Yes, it was terrifying. Even Bai Lili almost lost her mind and was doomed to eternal damnation during her attempt. If she hadn't come out of that predicament in the end, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Moreover, even if she is forcibly awakened in the end, it is very likely that her mind will be torn apart, and she may end up with many different personalities, which will be a troublesome matter to deal with.

However, Bai Lili also gained a lot from this illusionary cultivation. Now her State of Mind has reached perfection in this endless Samsara. When she finally woke up, it coincided with the perfect harmony of the Integration Body Integration Realm. She has already touched the threshold of the Body Integration Realm.

If she were to go into seclusion, it would take her at least a thousand years, or at least a hundred years, to break through to the Body Integration Realm.

After reflecting on her thoughts, Bai Lili looked up at Shen Ge on the top floor. Seeing that he was still immersed in his contemplation, she didn't disturb him. Instead, she chose to study some basic illusion Cultivation Method.

Now that she has such a good opportunity, she plans to push her illusion techniques to their peak.

Five years passed quickly. Before the appointed time arrived, Shen Ge opened his eyes, a flash of Sword-Ray appearing on his body, but then disappearing.

"Good haul, time to go."
