Chapter 324: The Book of Endless Knowledge
At the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan, who was communicating with the Dragon Egg, suddenly sensed someone waiting for him outside the seal of the spiritual liquid lake.
"Have fun! Quickly absorb the spiritual energy and try to break out of your shell soon," Xu Fan said to the Dragon Egg, which was happily swimming in the green spiritual liquid lake.
"Understood, daddy," the Dragon Eggs all nodded.
As Xu Fan stepped out of the seal surrounding the spiritual liquid lake, he saw Zhang Xueling waiting for him.
"Greetings, Grand Elder," Zhang Xueling saluted.
"It’s rare to see you out of the Sutra Pavilion," Xu Fan said with a smile.
"Grand Elder, the sect is in great danger today. According to my deductions, it’s likely that fox demon that escaped from the two realms."
"I suggest the Grand Elder move the sect to another location," Zhang Xueling said, feeling that the Grand Elder should be aware of the impending attack by the beast race.
"Didn’t you see the message sent out by the sect?" Xu Fan asked with a puzzled look, wondering if Zhang Xueling had been too absorbed in the Sutra Pavilion.
"What message?" Zhang Xueling asked as he pulled out his long-unused communication artifact.
"Grand Elder, I must have been too hasty," Zhang Xueling said, his face turning red.
"It’s fine; your heart is in the right place," Xu Fan reassured him with a smile.
"Have you been studying the art of divination lately?"
"The Heavenly Variation technique falls under the category of divination techniques," Zhang Xueling explained.
"The Heavenly Variation technique suits you well."
Xu Fan had created this technique during his seclusion in the Foundation Establishment Stage out of sheer boredom. It required immense mental effort to factor in all known variables to predict the future. While it seemed somewhat impractical at first, it had great potential for development in the later stages, though Xu Fan hadn’t bothered to refine it further.
"Grand Elder, I’ll head back to the Sutra Pavilion now," Zhang Xueling said respectfully, ready to return to his studies.
"Wait a moment."
Xu Fan handed him a storage bag filled with jade plates and jade slips.
"These are some new techniques I’ve recently created. Please catalog them in the Sutra Pavilion and organize them by level," Xu Fan instructed.
Zhang Xueling’s eyes lit up.
"Grand Elder, may I study these techniques?"
"Just don’t share them with outsiders," Xu Fan said with a wave. He wasn’t worried about his techniques being spread.
Xu Fan often left backdoors in both his artifacts and his techniques. If anyone practicing the Hidden Spirit Sect’s techniques or methods harbored ill intentions toward the sect or him, he would sense it immediately.
"Thank you, Grand Elder," Zhang Xueling said, beaming with joy.
"Go on, then."
Zhang Xueling looked as if he had just received a cherished toy, his excitement evident as he hurried off.
Watching Zhang Xueling leave, Xu Fan smiled. In his eyes, this eccentric disciple of the sect, shaped by time, would one day astonish everyone when his true potential was revealed.
In a mysterious stretch of sea, shadows blended seamlessly with the rocks of a reef.
Xu Yuexian gazed out at the water, wondering why her master had sent her away. Was there some opportunity waiting for her out here?
"The sect is about to relocate, and my master still hasn’t called me back. Now I’m stuck here guarding that stinky fish," Xu Yuexian muttered, pouting.
“Recently, I came across a shop that connects to the Thousand Worlds, and I almost ran out of spirit stones for the lottery.”
During her time away, Xu Yuexian had encountered the shop linking to the upper realm twice, winning many great items and nearly exhausting her spirit stones.
A book emitting colorful light appeared in Xu Yuexian’s hands.
She gently opened the first page, which displayed a countdown, still one hour remaining until it reached zero.
This was the Book of Endless Knowledge she had drawn. By paying a specific price, she could learn the information she desired.
Now, Xu Yuexian used this holy book to find out the time and place where the six-tailed treasure fish would appear.
Looking at the information in the Book of Endless Knowledge, Xu Yuexian felt a pang of regret, realizing she had spent five hundred top-grade spirit stones and a random precious artifact from her possession to gain this piece of information.
“When I return with the items requested by my master, I will definitely show off the Book of Endless Knowledge to him.”
“This Book of Endless Knowledge must be more powerful than a celestial tool.”
At that moment, in a part of the Thousand Worlds, a true immortal was impatiently updating the news from the spiritual book sent to the lower realm.
“Another poor soul. When you obtain this book, your fate will be entirely under their control.”
“But as a vessel for a significant figure, your life is sufficient,” the true immortal remarked with a hint of a compassionate smile.
In Xu Yuexian’s hiding place, a six-tailed treasure fish appeared next to a reef.
She was about to catch it but remembered the time noted in the Book of Endless Knowledge, so she patiently waited.
As a rare treasure, the six-tailed treasure fish had top-tier escape and hiding methods; if an ordinary cultivator showed even a hint of a flaw, it would vanish in an instant.
As the countdown approached zero, a group of colorful small fish slowly swam to the reef.
At that moment, the six-tailed treasure fish suddenly appeared from around a corner and charged at the colorful small fish.
In the blink of an eye, the six-tailed treasure fish swallowed six or seven small fish and then rested against a nearby reef.
The countdown in the Book of Endless Knowledge also reached zero.
Xu Yuexian directly absorbed the six-tailed treasure fish into the precious artifact palace.
“Alright, now it’s all set,” Xu Yuexian said with a smile.
Now, she could finally return to report to her master, feeling she must be present during this critical time for the sect.
One day later, Xu Fan stared at the rare treasures, spiritual fruits, and spirit wine before him, lost in thought.
Could there be some issue with his divination techniques?
“Master, I have something even more powerful than a celestial tool!” Xu Yuexian said mysteriously.
She proudly placed the Book of Endless Knowledge into Xu Fan’s hands.
“With this book, you can discover everything in the world, as long as you pay the corresponding price.”
“I found those rare items you asked for through the Book of Endless Knowledge,” Xu Yuexian boasted.
Xu Fan’s eyes sparkled as he scanned the Book of Endless Knowledge.
“Did you draw this from the Good Fortune Bag?” Xu Fan said, rubbing his temples in annoyance.
“This time, it was a Good Fortune Egg. I drew a piece of artifact-level spirit ore as the first freebie,” Xu Yuexian said gleefully, taking out a piece of fortuitous stone.
“Ah~~” Xu Fan sighed.
A spirit rabbit playing among the mountains appeared in Xu Fan’s hands.
“Yuexian, I have some knowledge of divination techniques; do you think I can predict this rabbit’s future?” Xu Fan asked.
“You can, because Master can completely control this spirit rabbit; its future is up to Master,” she replied.
At that moment, a tool puppet appeared beside Xu Fan.
“Spicy rabbit head, braised rabbit body,” Xu Fan said as he handed the rabbit to the tool puppet.
“Don’t you understand? In the eyes of the immortals in the upper realm, we are just like this rabbit.”
“Plus, that Book of Endless Knowledge of yours can be easily handled by any immortal knowledgeable in divination techniques.”
Xu Yuexian looked at the Book of Endless Knowledge, somewhat doubting Xu Fan’s words; she had experienced its wonders firsthand.
“Master, this Book of Endless Knowledge is also fake!”
“You can find out if it’s real or fake with two questions,” Xu Fan replied with a smile.
“What questions?”
“The first question is, who is the enemy of the residual soul following Ye Xiaoyao?”
“The second question is about Han Feiyu’s……….., uh, let’s skip that, you go ahead and ask the first one.”
“This Book of Endless Knowledge can sever causality; you should be fine asking the first question.”
Xu Yuexian took the Book of Endless Knowledge and asked the first question.
At that moment, a true immortal complained, “Every day, it’s just about calculating this trivial stuff.”
The true immortal followed the karmic threads provided by the spiritual book without hesitation.
