After Xiao Qi took the bamboo scroll, she knew that she could not cultivate it, so she passed it to Chu Li to see if he could cultivate it.
She did not expect that Chu Li would be able to cultivate when the bamboo slips disappeared. She was overjoyed.
However, he did not expect Chu Li's expression to be so gloomy. He could not help but feel nervous.
"Don't look at this bamboo slip." As Chu Li slowly walked out, the aura on his body became stronger and stronger. It was like a towering mountain lying in front of him, suppressing people so much that they could not breathe.
Xiao Qi tried her best to resist. She nodded and quickly picked up three secret manuals from the bookshelf and kept them in her arms. She did not touch the rest of the secret manuals.
She was personally taught by the Peak Master, so she knew that these three were the most important books on the shelf, and they were all authentic.
The rest of the secret manuals were all top-notch supreme arts, but they were all mixed with the real and the fake. Nine of them were real and one of them was fake. If one were to practice them, he would definitely die. Without the Peak Master's personal guidance, it would be difficult to choose the real secret manual.
Chu Li said, "Once I've mastered it, I'll pass it to you using the Distraction Technique. This secret manual of yours is too much of a scam."
"That's why almost no one has mastered the Swordless Scripture." Xiao Qi sighed. "The peak leader has always been regretful and unwilling. He said that if he had cultivated the Swordless Scripture, his sect would not have been destroyed!"
Chu Li nodded as he walked.
All of his attention was on the void of his mind, thinking about how to suppress the power of the bamboo scroll. Compared to Maha-Vairocana, it was more like Maha-Vairocana. Its radiance was boundless and unstoppable, sweeping away everything.
Xiao Qi walked out of the stone chamber and arrived at the basilica. She looked around and her face turned solemn. Then, she walked out of the basilica and walked toward a stone tower at the back.
The stone building was located on a small mountain peak and shone with a warm luster under the sunlight. Three large purple words were written in front of the building: "Scripture Pavilion".
Chu Li scanned his surroundings. This Sutra Library was too simple and crude. Moreover, it was built in such a conspicuous location. It showed that the Great Supreme Peak was very confident and was not afraid that someone would sneak in.
The two of them entered the stone building. It was empty inside. Bookshelves were strewn all over the floor. It was a mess, but not a single book was there.
Xiao Qi's face darkened. She pursed her red lips tightly and her bright eyes were burning with anger.
Chu Li frowned. "They sure are greedy. They just ransacked the Sutra Library!"
The Scripture Pavilion was the foundation of a sect, the source of its strength. The sect didn't need to be afraid if its experts were killed, but if the Scripture Pavilion suffered a calamity, its backbone would be broken, and it would never be able to stand up again.
This tiny Scripture Depository was the culmination of the blood, sweat, and tears of countless generations, yet it was destroyed in one day. The ancestors of the Taishang Peak would be so angry that they would come back to life.
Xiao Qi turned to look at Chu Li. "I want to retrieve the books in the Sutra Library!"
Previously, she was still hesitating on whether or not to chase after those fellows, but now, she had already made up her mind. No matter what, she would not rebuild the Taishang Peak, but no matter what, she had to seize the Sutra Depository, otherwise, she would be ashamed to face everyone.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Then let's go!"
Xiao Qi arrived in front of a bookshelf, lifted it up, and quickly slapped the shelf a few times. Then, the bookshelf broke into a pile of wooden blocks.
In the middle of the pile of wooden blocks, there was a small, dark green stone, very inconspicuous.
Xiao Qi picked up the pebble and placed it between her eyebrows. Then, she closed her eyes.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows and could not help but admire the seniors of the Taishang Peak. Indeed, they had put in a lot of effort. Obviously, this dark green stone was stained with the aura of those books, so it could be used to find those books.
Xiao Qi opened her bright eyes, her expression solemn.
Chu Li asked, "What's wrong? You can't find those books?"
"They're protected by treasures." Xiao Qi gently shook her head.
She had also learned Chu Li's Flying Star Technique through the Traction Skill, and she was very proficient in it. Although her soul was not as strong as Chu Li's, and her spiritual force was far from enough, she was already proficient in the Divination Technique.
However, this fellow was too despicable, he actually used the treasures on the secret books that he robbed, so she could not derive anything. He knew that there were only two people in the Taishang Peak, but he was still so careful, it was really despicable.
Chu Li said, "Give it to me."
"Can you do it now?" Xiao Qi frowned and looked at him worriedly.
Chu Li's expression had never been so unpleasant before. Although he pretended to be relaxed, the huge aura that leaked out was like a solid substance, so she knew that Chu Li was having a hard time now, and it would be difficult for him to be distracted.
Chu Li smiled. "The Sutra Library is more important."
"Let's wait a little longer." Xiao Qi gently shook her head. "If you can successfully cultivate the Swordless Scripture, we can directly break into the Auspicious Sect, there's no need to snatch it back halfway."
Although the Sutra Library was important, losing it would be a disgrace to the ancestors, but Chu Li was more important.
Chu Li waved his hand. "If I really can't do it, I won't force myself."
Xiao Qi hesitated for a moment, then handed the little green stone to him.
Chu Li asked, "What treasure is this?"
Through the treasures that Xiao Qi had, Chu Li had a new understanding of this world's treasures. Its power was indeed shocking, and he could not break it, so he seized the opportunity to learn more about it.
Xiao Qi said, "This is a Clear Heart Stone. If you wear the Clear Heart Stone, your mind will be clear and sharp, and your comprehension will greatly increase. Therefore, it is placed in the Sutra Library, but disciples who come to the Sutra Library to read books will benefit from it."
Chu Li was amazed. "Good treasure, it can also suppress inner demons, right?"
"Yes," Xiao Qi answered. "It's a treasure for cultivation."
Chu Li smiled. "Luckily, those people didn't notice this."
He could tell at a glance that the little dark green stone was embedded in the bookshelves, but it was hidden in inconspicuous places, so it was almost impossible to find. Some were hidden in the corners, and some were hidden under the corners of the bookshelves.
Xiao Qi slowly nodded. "They probably didn't expect the Clear Heart Stone to be placed here."
Chu Li placed the Clear Heart Stone between his eyebrows, and suddenly, a bright light shone on the stone.
The Omniscient Mirror observed this strange phenomenon, and Chu Li could not help but be moved. Was this also the magical effect of the Soul Lotus? To be able to directly project the Heart Light out of the body, it was impossible to have such a strange phenomenon in the Grandmaster's Boundary.
This showed the gap between him and Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi inherited his cultivation level and cultivated the Spirit Cultivation Technique, so her soul and spirit were far better than ordinary people, but she could not manifest the Heart Light.
After the Clear Heart Stone absorbed the Heart Light, it reflected a dark green light into the space between his eyebrows.
"Boom!" A muffled sound was like a thunderclap in his mind.
Suddenly, fifteen small boats appeared in front of Chu Li. They were sailing on the sea, and even though they were going against the wind, they were still extremely fast. The people on the boats were using their inner energy to move the boats like arrows.
Chu Li suddenly opened his eyes and smiled. "Found it!"
Xiao Qi sighed in relief and quickly looked at him. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Chu Li looked at the Clear Heart Stone and praised, "It's a treasure indeed."
Xiao Qi asked, "Is it useful to you?"
Chu Li slowly nodded.
He could feel the magical effect of the Clear Heart Stone. The thunderclap in the void of his mind did not affect the lotus flowers, but instead, it suppressed the dazzling bamboo scroll.
If he could always carry the Clear Heart Stone, he would feel less pressure.
Several sword energies appeared in Xiao Qi's mind, and the bookshelves on the ground suddenly cracked. Then, the Clear Heart Stones flew up, and a total of fourteen Clear Heart Stones fell into Xiao Qi's hands, and she passed them to Chu Li.
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "There's no need for so many."
"Take all of them, in case it's not enough." Xiao Qi took out a perfume bag and put the Clear Heart Stones into it, then she passed it to Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled as he took it and placed the perfume bag in between his eyebrows. Suddenly, a bright light shone from between his eyebrows into the perfume bag, and a green light shot back into the space between his eyebrows.
