With just three words, Tang Rou, who was at the Spirit spring stage and had refined a first-grade divine spring like the [Divine Wood Ocean Crossing Spring], was already drenched in sweat, as if she had just been fished out of water.
Zhou Mei couldn't help but be aghast at this scene. Just how heavy was this brush, ink, paper, and inkstone?? To be able to make Tang Rou so tired after writing three words, this was simply unimaginable!
"The Six Beasts Brush, Mysterious Spirit Ink, Celestial Celestial Paper, and Golden Star Snow Wave Inkstone. These things have always been the best treasures for humans to write and record since ancient times. Do you know why these four items are called the 'Four Treasures of the Study'? It's because of this! "
Although Tang Rou was exhausted, she was still very excited. Clearly, she was proud of being able to write three words with these 'Four Treasures of the Study'.
"Every one of them is a treasure among treasures! The books written with them will not only be immortal, but can also be preserved for hundreds of generations. As time passes, there will be all sorts of wonderful reactions. The significance of this is very difficult to understand if one isn't a scholar. "
Seeing Zhou Mei's tightly knitted brows, Tang Rou smiled faintly.
"Sister Mei, you don't usually like to read, so naturally, you don't know how precious these treasures are. According to legends, the Sage of Calligraphy, Wang Xizhi, from the Ancient Mythological Era, once had a mine of Golden Star Snow Wave Inkstone destroyed by the demons of the Demon Realm. In his fury, he gathered hundreds of sages in the 'Yulan Immortal Court' to suppress the Demon Realm.
When Tang Rou talked about the past, Shen Hou nodded repeatedly, clearly fascinated.
"His incomparable masterpiece, the [Preface to the Orchid Pavilion], was written before the suppression of the Demon Realm. That battle shook the entire Immortal, Human, and Demon Realms. For hundreds of years, the Demon Realm didn't dare to fight against the Human Race! Now, you should understand the significance of these items. "
"I still don't understand." Zhou Mei seemed to have started to become distracted after hearing these stories.
"The ancients said, 'Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles'. Actually, this is also the meaning. Using the Four Treasures of the Study to write requires a large amount of energy and spiritual power. The difficulty is no less than trekking thousands of miles. Therefore, the ancient people's writing is also a kind of cultivation. It can greatly increase one's physical strength. Instructor Feng Ci wants us to write books to increase our strength. "
"Oh, writing a book is also a form of cultivation!"
Zhou Mei understood what he meant. Since he was working so hard to write, it was obviously because he was cultivating. She smiled charmingly.
"If such a precious treasure is given to an unruly little girl like me who doesn't read the books of the saints, then wouldn't it be a great waste? I don't understand these things, and I don't want to use writing books to train my strength. So, I'd better not write it. You guys can copy it first. I'll go back and rest for a while. I'll come back to visit everyone when I'm back! "
Tang Rou's explanation seemed to have been in vain. Zhou Mei, who had always been unwilling to suffer, decided to run away. She smiled and waved at them as she walked out.
Chu Chen knew that she was going to skip class again today.
However, before Zhou Mei could step out of the library, a huge suction force suddenly appeared out of nowhere and forcefully pulled Zhou Mei's entire body back.
Eh? What's going on?
Zhou Mei, who had a shocked expression, was about to speak when the voice of the green-clothed elder suddenly came from the void.
"The library isn't a place where you can come and go as you please! The rule here is that all students who come in to cultivate must copy a complete rune essay before they can leave. Little girl, cultivate well! If you can't finish this assignment, then I can't let you go. "
"I really can't write anymore!"
Zhou Mei acted coquettishly and made a face at the void with a bitter smile. She had an innocent expression on her face.
Tang Rou smiled and shook her head. "Copying is still very meaningful. Using the special four treasures of the study to write has a great effect on the cultivation of one's spiritual power and strength. You should try to practice. It may be difficult at the beginning, but you will become more and more familiar with it in the future. I plan to take this opportunity to cultivate my spiritual power. "
"It's over now."
Hearing the words of the green-clothed elder, Shen Hou could not help but feel annoyed.
"You experts of the Spirit spring stage can only write three words. I haven't even reached the Spirit spring stage yet. Does that mean I can't even write a single word? An ancient text has at least a thousand words … Am I going to be trapped here for the rest of my life? "
"Haha, Brother Shen, don't worry. We are not the only people who have come to the library since it opened. The majority of the people here have not reached the Spirit spring stage, and I have never heard of anyone being trapped here for the rest of their life. Take it slow, we will definitely be able to find the mystery behind this. "Chu Chen smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"You're worth teaching."
Seeing this scene, the green-clothed elder's smiling words could be heard in the air. It seemed that he approved of Chu Chen.
"Why don't we look around first? Since this is the library, the mystery is likely to be in the books." Chu Chen said in a deep voice.
"Chu Chen, aren't you going to try it first?" Shen Hou was actually very curious about how many words Chu Chen could write. Tang Rou also looked at Chu Chen with a face full of expectation.
Chu Chen smiled faintly. "No rush, no rush. If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. I'll try it later. Let's look for the books."
Immediately, the few of them began to look around the library. Chu Chen thought that since Teacher Big Beard asked them to copy the ancient texts, it was obvious that even Tang Rou, whose cultivation was not weak, could only write three words at a time after exhausting all her spiritual power. This meant that they did not find the right method.
Therefore, no one foolishly began to write. They all carefully looked around, hoping to find some mystery.
There were simply too many books in the Book Collection Hall.
Even with Chu Chen's sharp senses, he was dazzled by the sheer number of books. What did Teacher Big Beard mean by this? He said that they were here to copy ancient rune books, but what kind of books were they supposed to copy?
There were so many books here, so many ancient texts. Could it be that they were just going to randomly pick one up and copy it? That was definitely not the case.
While looking at the contents of the books, Chu Chen's mind was also rapidly working to figure out his teacher's meaning. Big Beard had once said that every alchemist should refine a life-bound medicine talisman that was compatible with their own characteristics.
That's it!
A thought suddenly flashed through Chu Chen's mind. He muttered to himself for a moment, then secretly used his spirit perception to carefully sense Shen Hou's cultivation and soul aura. Then, he used his spiritual sense to carefully sense the vast Book Collection Hall …
Found it!
Not long after, Chu Chen's eyes lit up. In the vast sea of books, there was a book that emitted an aura that was extremely harmonious with Shen Hou's aura. It was as if they were a natural match.
Chu Chen's heart skipped a beat. He took the book and took a look. The five golden characters on it were extremely eye-catching.
