Standing outside the library, she raised her head to look at the three flamboyant words on the signboard. For a moment, she couldn't differentiate between reality and her memories.
The Book Collection Pavilion. The Sima family also had a Book Collection Pavilion. The first time she stepped into the library, she was also a piece of trash, unable to cultivate.
Now, she had to start all over again. However, this time was different from before. She had the power bestowed upon her by the Patriarch. As long as her soul cultivation increased, she would be able to unlock the seals layer by layer and truly receive the Patriarch's power!
"Miss, you've never been to the library before. What kind of books do you want to read? "Ting Shan reminded her when she saw her staring blankly at the plaque.
Sima Youyue regained her senses and asked, "Where are the books on cultivation methods?"
"It's on the second floor. The first floor is filled with books on various aspects, the second floor is about cultivation, and the third floor and above are all about spiritual techniques. "
"Then I'll go to the second floor. Just wait for me here. "Sima Youyue instructed Ting Shan.
Ting Shan remembered Murong Hui's order to treat Sima Youyue like the previous Miss, so she obediently stayed on the first floor.
After Sima Youyue went upstairs, she saw some books about cultivation on the bookshelves outside, but most of them were about ghost cultivation. At most, he had only mentioned one or two things about the cultivation of the soul body.
Finally, she saw a thin and worn book on the shelf at the end.
"There's only such a shabby book!" She took the book down and was a little disappointed.
"You are looking for the cultivation method of the soul body." An old voice sounded beside her, giving her a fright.
"Who?" She looked around and felt breathing behind her. She quickly turned around and saw a short and small old man looking at her with his hands behind his back. "Hello, you are …"
"I'm just a cleaner." The little old man said, "Do you want to study the cultivation method of the soul body?"
"I'm just taking a look," Sima Youyue said nonchalantly.
"Cultivating soul power is good, but it's a pity that good soul power cultivation methods are about to be lost." The little old man said, "However, for a soul body like yours, you can only cultivate this now."
Sima Youyue was shocked. "How did you know …" that she was a soul?
"This little old man still has a discerning eye," the little old man said with a smile.
Sima Youyue was alarmed. She remembered that the Patriarch had said that the body that he had helped her condense could not be seen as a soul body. However, this old man was able to discover it with just a glance. Just how strong was he?
I wonder if Mi Er can handle him …
The little old man saw that her expression had only changed slightly. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You don't have to worry. The little old man won't do anything to you."
"Then why did you …" expose me?
"I'm just curious. How did you materialize your physical body? From the looks of it, you haven't even started soul cultivation yet, have you? "The little old man's smiling face made him seem more friendly to others.
"Before I came to the Ghost Realm, one of my Patriarchs helped me condense my body." Sima Youyue said.
She said this to tell him that she also had a very powerful Patriarch. Secondly, her Patriarch was not from the Ghost Realm. He should not ask who he was.
The little old man understood her meaning and did not continue to ask. He walked to the innermost bookshelf and squatted down to rummage for a while. He took out a book and handed it to Sima Youyue.
"This book is much better than the one in your hand."
Sima Youyue took the book. It was a thick book. Although the corners were missing, there were no missing words or pages. It was indeed much better than the one in her hand.
"Thank you." She smiled at him and said gratefully.
"Soul cultivation is much harder than ghost cultivation. Young lady, the road ahead will be difficult." The little old man sighed and left the second floor. Sima Youyue looked at his back and clenched the book in her hand.
She naturally did not believe that he was a cleaner. He must be a very powerful senior in the Murong family. But why did he come out to expose her and find a book for her?
Curiosity was not a valid reason.
Anyway, if he really wanted to harm her, with Mi Er around, even if he could not turn the world upside down, it would not be a problem for him to leave.
She put away the two books and turned to go downstairs to leave. Seeing Ting Shan standing outside the Book Collection Pavilion, she asked, "Is there a skinny old man cleaning the Book Collection Pavilion?"
"A skinny old man? No! The library has always been cleaned by the maids. "Ting Shan replied.
"Oh. Let's go back. "Sima Youyue was not surprised. It seemed that her guess was right.
Returning to the courtyard, she shut Ting Shan and Ting Shui outside and said that she was going to cultivate in seclusion. No one was allowed to disturb her. If anyone came in, she would sell them to the brothel.
She did not have spiritual power now, so she could not set up a barrier. She could only rely on external forces.
Ting Shan and Ting Shui knew that Murong Xi had sold a maidservant before, and they heard that the maidservant's fate was very miserable. Now that they heard this, both of them were very alert and determined not to let any Tom, Dick, or Harry enter.
So, when Gongzi Yuan came, he was mercilessly stopped outside by the two.
"Cultivate? Can she cultivate? Isn't she a waste like Xi 'er? "Gongzi Yuan muttered and left.
If Sima Youyue knew, she would roll her eyes at him. Who said that she was a waste and could not cultivate? She hadn't even started to cultivate yet, alright!
She first opened the old and thin book. There was no cultivation method in it. In the words of the little old man, it was not very useful. She roughly flipped through it. This book was just an introduction to soul cultivators.
Soul cultivators referred to those who died in other realms and their souls entered the ghost realm and started cultivating again. Soul cultivators were very weak at the beginning, so it was difficult to survive.
Ghost cultivators referred to those ghost clans who cultivated ghost qi. When Sima Youyue was alive, she was also considered a ghost cultivator.
Ghost cultivators were much more powerful than soul cultivators because ghost cultivators could contract underworld beasts and soul cultivators at the same time as ghost cultivators. In addition to using ghost qi in battle, they could also use soul power.
Moreover, some ghost cultivators cultivated underworld techniques to suppress soul cultivators and even control them as their slaves and subordinates. So, there were fewer soul cultivators in the ghost realm. But once a soul cultivator grew up, they were very powerful and dominated a part of the world in the ghost realm.
Because there were many powerful soul cultivators, ghost cultivators chose to strangle soul cultivators in the cradle. There were even fewer soul cultivators in these years.
But there was one exception, and that was the soul realm.
The old ancestor said that under the Ninth Underworld Mountain, the black lotus bloomed, and no one dared to disobey the three realms of the ghost realm. These three realms referred to the ghost realm, soul realm, and hell.
The soul realm was the realm where soul cultivators lived. It was as famous as the ghost realm and hell, which was enough to show its status and strength.
