The insect that specialized in eating ancient books was called a bookworm. Apart from ancient books, it didn't like to eat anything else, even new books. Even if it was a book made of paper, it had to be old enough for it to like to eat. This creature was really strange. It was born in the endless void, but it could survive in the God Realm. Moreover, it was small and had no fighting power. A three year old child could crush it to death.
But it was precisely this kind of bookworm that had no fighting power that was extremely precious. If he hadn't come to the store to buy old books, he wouldn't have had the chance to see it. The reason why the shop assistant didn't guard against Du Feng was because there were many hidden guards in the store. Although the customers couldn't see them, they were actually hidden behind the shelves, behind the doors, and even in the walls.
Anyone who dared to rob here was definitely courting death. Another reason was that the shop assistant didn't think that Du Feng knew the insect at all.
The books in the wooden box had already been eaten by the bookworm, which meant that it had completed its mission. As long as a book was eaten by a bookworm, it would absorb a portion of its knowledge. When the knowledge of many books was gathered together, it would form a new cultivation technique.
As long as the satiated bookworm was placed into a special jade scroll, it would turn into a ray of light and be absorbed. After the absorption, the jade scroll would contain a new cultivation technique. This was a new cultivation technique that was a fusion of many cultivation techniques. It might be of a very high grade, so high that it was unimaginable, or even unseen. But it might also be of a very low grade, even trashier than those cultivation techniques that cost one merit point. This depended mainly on luck.
As long as one fused a top-grade cultivation technique, they would be rich. The value of that kind of cultivation technique could no longer be measured by the word 'extremely'. Even if one had the money, they wouldn't sell it. It was only circulated among the upper echelons of the primordial gods.
Although Du Feng didn't see a top-grade cultivation technique, he was lucky to see a bookworm. Regarding the bookworm, even Du Tulong and Tengu could only be envious. Don't be fooled by their strength because they had existed for a long time. He had gone through countless trials and tribulations in the Limitless Void to accumulate such powerful strength.
But in terms of creating cultivation techniques and forging weapons, they were far inferior to the gods. This was also why the gods could stand tall. Apart from the natural disasters of the Primitive Universe, nothing could force them to migrate.
As long as the Divine Realm was not destroyed, the Gods who lived in the Divine Realm could live forever. This was also the reason why everyone wanted to come to the God World. Du Tulong was also very greedy for some of the good things in the God Realm, so he encouraged him to come to the God Realm to develop. He even knew where to catch the Bookworm, but he couldn't tell Du Feng yet. If he told him too early, he was afraid that Du Feng wouldn't be able to resist the temptation and risk his life.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … this bookworm is really good stuff, where can I go to catch it?
Sure enough, Du Feng couldn't help but ask. Unfortunately, Du Tulong didn't tell him.
"The ancient book you bought isn't bad either. Go back and study it."
He had bought the ancient book for Du Feng. He had been busy with the bookworm and hadn't read it yet. Since he couldn't catch the Bookworm for the time being, he could only take a look at this book. When he returned to his temple, he took out the ancient book.
This book was really old, and when he took it out, it fell to the ground. If it weren't for Du Tulong's reminder, he wouldn't have spent so much money. After all, it was a hundred merit points. If he bought a useless book, it would be a big loss.
The lower right corner of the book had been chewed off by the Bookworm, and it looked a little damaged. But after opening it, the contents inside weren't affected. This meant that when the Bookworm absorbed knowledge, it didn't absorb the contents of the book.
Because when the Bookworm gnawed on the book, it was random and couldn't be interfered with. If someone interfered, then it would completely fail. So this kind of thing depended on luck. The more the Bookworm gnawed on, the higher the chance of fusing a top-quality skill book. On the contrary, the less it gnawed on, the lower the chance of fusing a top-quality skill book.
But as long as it gnawed on an ancient book, it wouldn't gnaw on it a second time. So there was no point in keeping it in the grocery store. Selling it to Du Feng for a hundred merit points was still a profit for them.
Du Feng couldn't wait to open the ancient book. There were a few lines written on the title page: When a youth was fifteen or twenty, he won the Houma Mount on foot.
He shot down the Zhongshan White Tiger and was willing to shed a yellow beard!
He fought for three thousand miles and fought against a million masters with one sword.
Tsk tsk tsk … what kind of senior was this? He was already so powerful in his youth and fought against a million masters with one sword. It seemed that this was a key to swordsmanship. Great, he'd wanted to buy this sword technique anyway. Last time, he'd been set up in the Ouyang family's bookstore to buy a sword technique.
In fact, Du Feng had wanted to buy the sword manual that was worth five hundred God Stones. But after that incident, there was no way to trade. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, for he'd actually found this ancient book.
"What a blessing in disguise. I was the one who told you that."
Du Tulong had already known that it was a sword technique, and a very good one at that. Otherwise, he wouldn't have urged Du Feng to buy it. It had to be known that this was something that could only be encountered by chance.
The Boundless Sword Art was a bit interesting. The name itself gave off a vicissitudes of life. The opening chapter of the sword technique also recorded a short story. It was about the founder of this sword technique from when he was young to old. He was talented and loved to use the sword since he was young. When he was old, his swordsmanship was already invincible and he felt that it was meaningless.
It was lonely at the top and lonely to be invincible. The book revealed a bit of desolation and desolation. It was written in a very touching manner. However, Du Feng didn't believe that this senior's swordsmanship was invincible. If his swordsmanship was truly invincible, then why wouldn't he and the boss of the grocery store practice it? Why would they feed it to the bookworm?
The Boundless Sword Art was certainly fierce. Perhaps in that era, this senior didn't need an opponent, but that didn't mean he was invincible. Moreover, sword techniques were divided into ranks. In the God King realm, a sword technique that was invincible would fall to a World King realm sword technique. If it were to meet a God Emperor's sword technique, it would be at the bottom.
Eh, strange. Du Feng studied it for a long time, trying to figure out what rank this Boundless Sword Art belonged to. From the opening of the book, it seemed that one could practice it no matter how low one's cultivation was. As long as one had arms and legs, one could practice it. Even the Body Tempering realm of the lower realms was no exception.
Even if one was missing an arm or a leg, they could still play a certain role. The senior who created this Boundless Sword Art was simply a genius. Could it be that he had been disabled since he was young? Why did he even consider how a disabled person could use the sword?
