Jianchen sucked in a deep breath and calmed down very quickly. He slowly walked to the bookshelf and glanced through the books one by one. Afterward, he directly took out the first book and sat down in front of the desk in the center of the bookshelf. This book was about cultivation experiences and techniques for breaking through bottlenecks. It even clearly described the things one needed to pay attention to when breaking through to Earth Saint Master.
Although there were not many books on the first floor, every single one of them was the best of the best. If they were taken outside, it would definitely lead to a storm of blood.
Jianchen carefully flipped through the book page by page. He finished the book very quickly. After reading it, Jianchen immediately sank into deep thought. It had to be said that any random book he took out was enough to broaden his horizons. The cultivation system of this world had completely overturned Jianchen's previous life. After reading this book, Jianchen clearly felt that his understanding of the cultivation system of this world had deepened a little.
Before long, Jianchen finished reading all the books on the bookshelf. Among the books, half of them described cultivation experiences and the various obstacles one would encounter while the other half were cultivation methods. However, the highest level cultivation method was only High Earth Tier. The books that were most helpful to Jianchen were the cultivation experiences and the handwritten notes of the first principal of Kargath Academy, Bunen.
Jianchen's gaze landed on the purple-gold box at the top of the bookshelf. According to the principal, the purple-gold box contained a Low Heaven Tier cultivation method. Although Jianchen did not know just how valuable a Low Heaven Tier cultivation method was, he knew that it was definitely a priceless treasure.
After all, Heaven Tier cultivation methods were ranked second among all the cultivation methods on the Tian Yuan Continent. They were only one level lower than the Saint Tier cultivation methods on the Tian Yuan Continent.
Jianchen slowly opened the purple-gold box and saw a palm-sized book lying inside. On the cover of the book were the words' Daluo Heart Sutra '. When Jianchen held the book in his hand, a soft and comfortable feeling immediately filled his hand. There was also a sliver of warmth, as if it had just been touched by someone.
The book was made from the fur of a magical beast. It was extremely tough and would not be damaged easily.
Jianchen carefully took out the palm-sized book and began to flip through it. His face was stern. Clearly, he understood that it was extremely difficult for him to see such a high level cultivation method at his current level. Although he did not plan on cultivating the cultivation method, it would be beneficial to him at the very least. He might even be able to learn something valuable from it.
Four hours later, Jianchen finally shifted his gaze away from the book. He lowered his head and pondered. Only when he was certain that he had completely memorized the contents of the book did he put the book back into the purple-gold box and return to his original position.
Glancing at the books on the bookshelf again, Jianchen let out a long sigh. He then made his way down the stairs without any reluctance. However, today's trip to the seventh floor of the library was extremely rewarding for Jianchen.
Afterwards, Jianchen looked through all the books on the sixth floor. Although the books on the sixth floor were not as valuable as the ones on the seventh floor, they were still quite rewarding for Jianchen. Especially the various cultivation experiences left behind by the predecessors. They were extremely helpful to Jianchen.
Other than these, Jianchen also learned about many rare spiritual materials and treasures from the books. These were not things that could be found on the lower floors of the library.
When Jianchen walked out of the library, the sky had already darkened. Unknowingly, he had already stayed in the library for an entire day. He had even forgotten to eat.
"Grumble …" At this moment, Jianchen's stomach finally grumbled.
Jianchen reached out and rubbed his stomach that was already hurting from hunger. His face revealed a trace of a helpless smile. He then walked directly in the direction of the cafeteria.
After a hurried dinner, Jianchen walked directly to the dormitory. Along the way, he attracted the gazes of many students. Some were envious, some were admiring, some were jealous. There were all kinds of gazes.
Jianchen did not care about the gazes around him. He walked straight to the dormitory. When he entered the dormitory building, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of his dormitory from afar. It was his big brother, Changyang Hu.
"It's already so late, but big brother is still waiting for me here. Could it be that there is something urgent that you need me for?" Jianchen thought to himself. He quickened his pace and walked over quickly.
"Big brother, it's already so late. Why are you still waiting for me here? Can't you wait until tomorrow?" Jianchen arrived in front of Changyang Hu and asked.
When he saw that Jianchen had returned, Changyang Hu's face instantly turned bitter. He sighed and said, "Sigh … fourth brother, you're finally back. Where did you run off to today? I practically searched the entire school but couldn't find you. I've been waiting for you here for an entire day."
Jianchen's face revealed a trace of apology and said, "Big brother, could it be that you're looking for me for something important?"
Hearing this, Changyang Hu's face immediately revealed a happy smile. He said excitedly, "Of course there's something, and it's a big matter. Come, fourth brother, let's go inside and talk."
Jianchen nodded slightly. He took out the key from his space belt and opened the door of the dormitory. The door of this dormitory was newly changed. The previous door had already been smashed to pieces by the vice president.
When they entered the dormitory, Changyang Hu immediately closed the door and said, "Fourth brother, just now there was a message from home. You're really lucky. I really envy you."
Hearing this, Jianchen's face revealed a trace of confusion. He asked puzzledly, "Big brother, what's the matter?"
Changyang Hu walked to Jianchen's bed and sat down. He had a happy smile on his face and said, "Fourth brother, I guess you don't know yet. Father has already arranged a marriage for you."
Hearing this, Jianchen's expression was clearly stunned. He immediately reacted and revealed a trace of disbelief. He exclaimed, "What! A marriage!? "
Changyang Hu fiercely nodded and said happily, "Yes, fourth brother. And the bride is the king's third princess — Princess Gelan. I heard that the king took the initiative to propose this marriage."
Hearing this, Jianchen's expression immediately became serious. He was very surprised by this situation. He was even more dissatisfied that his family had decided on his marriage without his consent. This kind of fate that was completely arranged by his family made Jianchen feel extremely disgusted.
Seeing Jianchen's expression, Changyang Hu thought that Jianchen was worried about the Princess Gelan's appearance. He could not help but chuckle and said, "Fourth brother, don't worry. Although I have never seen the Princess Gelan, I have heard many things about her. The Princess Gelan is the king's third daughter. She is a natural beauty with a face that can cause the downfall of nations. She has been a genius since she was young. Not only is she proficient in the four arts, she is also extremely talented in cultivation. It is said that when she was fifteen, her Saint Force had already reached the seventh layer. She is deeply doted on by the king and is the apple of his eye. His Majesty dotes on the Princess Gelan very much."
At this point, Changyang Hu sighed and said, "Let's not talk about the Princess Gelan's noble status. Just her talent in cultivation is not something that I can compare to. Fourth brother, it is a blessing for you that his Majesty has betrothed the Princess Gelan to you. You don't have to have such a bitter expression."
Jianchen sighed inwardly. How could Changyang Hu understand his thoughts? No matter how beautiful the Princess Gelan was, Jianchen would not be moved. Right now, he only wanted to wholeheartedly increase his strength and did not want to waste time on these matters. Furthermore, he was very clear that his Majesty must have known about his achievements in Kargath Academy. Otherwise, he would not have betrothed his most beloved daughter to him so decisively.
Since this marriage was proposed by his Majesty, Jianchen was also clear that he had no power to reject it. Not to mention whether his parents would give up such a good opportunity to befriend the Royal Family, this was also related to the Royal Family's reputation. Unless his Majesty took the initiative to withdraw the order, with Jianchen's current status, he could only accept it calmly.
However, what made Jianchen feel at ease was that this marriage was only temporarily decided. As for when they would officially get married, this also meant that this marriage could be extended indefinitely. At the very least, it would give him some time to breathe. After all, in his heart, he still did not want to talk about matters of the heart. Furthermore, in his previous life, Jianchen and Xiaoyao had already become accustomed to drifting on the lake. They did not have a fixed residence, the sky as their blanket and the earth as their bed. If there was another person by his side in the future, he would really feel very uncomfortable.
After Changyang Hu left, Jianchen sat alone on the bed and pondered. It had to be said that this news from his family was really too sudden. It actually made Jianchen feel that he was caught unprepared.
"Sigh. It's better to spend the time on cultivation. After all, only with strength can one decide everything. When my strength is strong enough, even if I take the initiative to cancel the marriage, the King would not say anything. " Jianchen let out a long sigh and slowly calmed himself down. Then, he sat cross-legged on the bed and continued to cultivate.
Jianchen took out a level one Magic Core from the Storage Ring, then slowly closed his eyes and began to absorb the energy in the Magic Core to cultivate. Since Jianchen's strength broke through to the Saint realm two days ago, tonight was the first time he cultivated. For the past two nights, he had been familiarizing himself with the use and control of the Holy Weapon.
Just as Jianchen began to absorb the energy in the Magic Core, the energy in the Magic Core suddenly flowed faster and faster. In the end, the energy in the Magic Core was like a runaway horse, crazily surging into Jianchen's body, causing the speed at which Jianchen absorbed the energy to soar to hundreds of times the usual speed in an instant.
The sudden change made Jianchen's expression change drastically. Although everyone hoped that they could absorb the energy faster, the speed at which Jianchen absorbed the energy in the Magic Core had reached a very terrifying speed. Jianchen simply could not refine the energy in the Magic Core in time. Not only was this not beneficial to him, but it would also bring him endless harm. This was because he could not control the energy that he had not refined. Once such a huge amount of energy ran amok in his body, the consequences would be so great that Jianchen would be doomed eternally.
