The conversation between Ji Tianxing and Elder Du was very smooth.
It was not like a test, but more like two enthusiasts who were passionate about exploring the starry sky.
The two talked for a long time and talked about many topics about the starry sky.
In everyone's eyes, Elder Du was a knowledgeable scholar who knew the past and present as well as astronomy and geography.
But in fact, his exploration and research of the starry sky was still in the initial stage of speculation and demonstration.
But Ji Tianxing was different. He had entered the starry sky countless times and knew everything in the starry sky like the back of his hand.
Not only had he seen the starry sky of the upper planes outside the God Realm, he had also seen the starry sky of the lower planes.
The conversation between the two was mostly Elder Du asking questions and he answering them.
So they talked happily and even forgot about the passage of time.
After Elder Du asked all the questions and received satisfactory answers, the conversation between the two of them ended.
And at this time, six hours had already passed.
The two stood side by side in the starry sky and looked at the vast stars in the distance. Elder Du said with emotion: "This old man spent half of his life and looked up almost all the information that could be found to deduce and analyze these clues. I did not expect that there were still so many mistakes.
Today, after talking with you, I suddenly understood and was enlightened.
Tianxing, this old man wants to ask you a question …
You are not a God King expert, but you seem to have been to the starry sky and know all the questions like the back of your hand.
You … how did you do it?
Did an expert impart this knowledge and experience to you? "
Ji Tianxing of course could not reveal the truth and say that he was once a peak God King and had traveled through the starry sky countless times.
He also did not want to make up a lie and say that he had a God King senior or master.
So, he looked at Elder Du with a smile and said: "Elder Du, this is my secret and I cannot tell you. I hope you can understand."
Elder Du sighed with disappointment and said with a bitter smile: "Fine, since it is a secret, this old man will not ask anymore."
He pointed at the starry sky around him and said with a smile: "This starry sky is the result of my own speculation and I spent hundreds of years to set it up.
Now that I have received your guidance, this old man has to correct it as soon as possible to avoid forgetting the details.
In the future, with the correct star chart, it will be much smoother for this old man to continue to deduce and analyze … "
As he spoke, he formed a divine seal with both hands and used a divine formation secret technique to remove the alternate dimension.
"Shua!"
The boundless darkness dissipated, and so did the vast stars.
With a flash of light, Ji Tianxing and Elder Du left the alternate space and appeared in a dimly lit hall.
The hall was very spacious, with a radius of two thousand feet.
There were no lights on the surrounding walls, only the dome was lit up with dense spots of light.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that the tens of thousands of silver dots formed a starry sky map.
Ji Tianxing and Elder Du stood in the hall as if they were under the starry sky.
From this, it could be seen how obsessed Elder Du was with exploring the starry sky.
Ji Tianxing looked around and saw that there were over a hundred bookshelves in the dark hall.
Every bookshelf had a treasure box on it. There must be some precious ancient books inside.
So, he asked, "Elder Du, does this count as passing your test?"
Elder Du nodded and said with a smile, "You must be joking. This old man didn't intend to test you. We were just discussing and exchanging ideas.
Speaking of which, this old man has to thank you for answering my questions and giving me a lot of insights. "
Ji Tianxing didn't bother with pleasantries. He cupped his hands and said, "In that case, this old man will start reading these ancient books."
Elder Du waved his hand and said, "You know the rules, so this old man won't repeat them.
Go read the books. This old man also needs to modify the starry sky array. "
With that, Elder Du activated the array under his feet and entered the dark "starry sky" to modify the array.
Ji Tianxing didn't waste any time. He walked to the nearest bookshelf and began to read the books.
He opened many treasure boxes, took out the books inside, and quickly scanned them with his divine sense.
In just a hundred breaths, he finished reading nearly a hundred books on the bookshelf.
Then, he walked to another bookshelf and repeated the same thing.
The books on this floor were obviously more valuable than those on the first floor.
Ancient books and records not only recorded even more secretive historical events, but also contained some secrets that were unknown to the public.
Through reading these books, Ji Tianxing understood the history of the Great Yan Empire more clearly and thoroughly.
He also gradually learned about the situation of the Great Yan Empire and the surrounding empires, as well as the grievances, conflicts, and disputes between them.
Then, the general situation of the Tianbei Region also took shape in his mind.
For the whole day, he had been reading the books with full concentration and carefully memorizing the important contents.
In this level of the library, he obtained a lot of useful and valuable clues, and he gained quite a lot.
However, there was no clue about the turmoil a thousand years ago, the situation of the Boundless Heaven Continent, and the news outside the Boundless Heaven Continent.
Ji Tianxing was a little disappointed. He thought to himself, This is really strange. The Great Yan Empire has existed for tens of thousands of years, and even the historical events of 30,000 years ago are clearly recorded.
The turmoil a thousand years ago, the change of the Boundless Heaven Continent's master, how earth-shattering was that? How could the Great Yan Empire not have records of it?
Even if the real reason and process aren't recorded, there should at least be some clues.
Could it be that someone is deliberately hiding and covering up what happened a thousand years ago? "
With these questions in mind, Ji Tianxing left the second floor of the library and went to the third floor.
…
The person guarding the third floor of the library was the leader of the four pavilion elders, Grand Elder Ji.
It was said that he was the junior brother of the fifth Emperor and had lived for more than 23,000 years.
The fifth Emperor was still alive and was revered as the patriarch of the Great Yan Imperial Family.
Grand Elder Ji was very mysterious. He lived in the library all year round.
He would only appear if something major happened, such as the ascension of a new Emperor or if the Great Yan Empire was facing destruction.
Usually, he would not appear at all. Even the Emperor rarely saw him.
As a result, not many people in the Great Yan Empire knew of Grand Elder Ji's existence.
Although Yan Yongning had met Grand Elder Ji once and had some understanding of Grand Elder Ji's habits, he was not a kind person.
He would not be so kind as to remind Ji Tianxing of anything.
Hence, when Ji Tianxing entered the third floor of the library, he knew nothing about Grand Elder Ji.
He did not understand Grand Elder Ji's temperament, and he could not guess what Grand Elder Ji's test was.
However, he was not worried. No matter how Grand Elder Ji made things difficult for him, he was confident he could resolve it one by one.
Swoosh!
There was a flash of light. Ji Tianxing entered the library's third floor and appeared in the boundless darkness.
He stood where he was and looked around to observe his surroundings.
His surroundings were pitch-black. Not only was there no light, but he also could not see anyone or anything.
This made him frown. A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, an old and deep voice rang in the darkness.
