Chapter 380: Shock
Minghe got up and left Silence Room for his cultivation. After walking out of a small courtyard, he went straight to Library of Yun Ling Academy. Since he had entered the academy several months ago, Minghe had been busy recovering his strength. Now, it was the first time for him to walk around the academy. For him, everything was strange. Even the Library he had longed for was just a dot on a map to him.
Although he had become a Third Grade Refining Master of Yun Ling Academy, Minghe never did the due diligence. He could gain 110,000 contribution merits every 1,000 years, but he was committed. During the 1,000 years, Minghe needed to refine at least three Top Grade primordial supreme treasures for the academy.
It was nothing to Minghe. After all, he had started to refine Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, and he was equal to a Fifth Grade Refining Master in the academy. It was not difficult for him to refine three Top Grade primordial supreme treasures in 1,000 years. Moreover, the academy would prepare all the materials for refining weapons. Therefore, Minghe did not have to bother himself too much.
Except for the obligation for three Top Grade primordial supreme treasures every 1,000 years, Minghe was completely free. Even if he did not guide students to refine weapons, the academy would not care. Certainly, it was also a way to earn the contributions to guide students to refine weapons. However, Minghe was not interested. After all, it was too slow to earn the contributions in this way.
The contributions Minghe needed were quite significant. There were only two ways before him to earn the contributions as soon as possible. One was to take on missions from Mission Hall and complete them. In this way, he could naturally earn a great deal of contributions. The other was to sell primordial supreme treasures. As long as he could refine a lot of primordial supreme treasures, Minghe could sell them to the academy or students. In this case, he could also make many contributions.
Minghe preferred the second way. It was troublesome to do tasks to earn the contributions, but it was easy to refine primordial supreme treasure. In the Battlefield of God and Demon, nearly everyone had primordial spiritual treasures. Only primordial supreme treasures were valuable. Half Spiritual Treasures of Chaos or Spiritual Treasures of Chaos were rarer. Even in the academy, they were few.
Minghe’s participation in Yun Ling Academy was only out of habit, so he still reserved something during when refining weapons. Therefore, he only refined Top Grade primordial supreme treasure and became a Third Grade Refining Master. Now, if he refined Highest Grade primordial supreme treasure or Half Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, he must be doubted. Hence, he only could refine some Top Grade primordial supreme treasures to exchange contributions at present.
According to the identity token, the Top Grade primordial supreme treasure could be exchanged for at least 50,000 contributions. In case of a powerful treasure, it could be exchanged for more contributions. Minghe was paid 110,000 contributions every 1,000 years, but he generated profits about 150,000 contributions for the academy. He seemed to be suffering losses, but he actually had not.
On one hand, Minghe enjoyed the good environment of Yun Ling Academy. On the other hand, all materials for refining the three Top Grade primordial supreme treasures were provided by the academy. Moreover, the materials could be used to refine more than three treasures. After all, he sometimes might fail in refining a treasure. If he refined a Mid Grade primordial supreme treasure due to carelessness, he would have to refine it again.
Minghe wanted to earn contributions by selling primordial supreme treasures, so he needed to prepare the materials by himself. However, it might need a lot of contributions in exchange for refining materials. In the long run, the contributions he really earned would amount to no more than 150,000. It might be 120,000 or 100,000. It all depended on Minghe’s refining skill.
At the thought of this, Minghe smiled. He was confident of his refining skill. Moreover, he had secret weapons. Therefore, he refined weapons with great facility. But now, Minghe had no time to think about all this, because he had arrived at the library. The towering building was full of aura. In the building, light flew and Defend Formation hid inside. If someone wanted to break in, there might be infinite Menace Intent.
At the library gate, there was no guardian, but in-and-outers. Eight Transmitting Formations were arranged at the gate, which respectively corresponded to eight floors. However, the holder’s cultivation was recorded in identity token. For example, Minghe had reached A Half Step to the Fate Realm, so he could enter the seventh floor at most. Of course, he could enter the first six floors.
Minghe was not interested in the first six floors, because the seventh floor had everything the first six floors had. After all, the library was open to everyone in Yun Ling Academy. A student of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm only could enter the first floor. If he exchanged contributions for transforming exercises, he could exchange for subsequent transforming exercises on the second floor when he broke through to the Sage-to-be Realm. Therefore, all the books on the first floor could be found on the second floor. By that analogy, all the books on the first six floors could be found be on the seventh floor.
So, Minghe would not be interested in the first six floors. He went straight to the Transmitting Formation which transmitted to the seventh floor. If a man wanted to enter the seventh floor of the library, he must have reached A Half Step to the Fate Realm at least. In the academy, there were many masters of the Zenith Heaven Realm. However, there were a few people of A Half Step to the Fate Realm, which added up to less than a hundred people.
After entering the seventh floor of the library, Minghe took a look and found nothing in the floor. After all, only a few people had reached A Half Step to the Fate Realm in the academy. Thus, it was normal to see no one on the seventh floor. After all, a lot of time was needed for cultivation. For Closed Door Meditation, it might cost thousands or even ten thousands of years. Moreover, for masters of A Half Step to the Fate Realm, it was also natural to comprehend the Fate Realm through Closed Door Meditation.
Minghe carefully observed the seventh floor. On numerous shelves, there were countless Jade Slips, which recorded various transforming exercises and tactical formations. The corresponding areas were separated to lay these Jade Slips. Moreover, the limit was set for the shelves. Before each Jade Slip, there was a corresponding introduction. Only when the corresponding contribution was paid could the records in Jade Slip be obtained.
There was no guardian on the seventh floor, but Minghe did not plan to plunder. Leaving aside the fact that the limit was connected with the formation in the library, the four statues that were lying on the floor were not to be trifled with. Minghe had also studied the Law of Puppet before, so he could naturally discern that the four statues were Puppets of A Half Step to the Fate Realm.
Once the limit was violated, the formation of the library and the four puppets would be initiated. Until then, if experts of the Fate Realm in the academy were disturbed, it would be hard for him to run away. Therefore, the academy did not send anyone to guard the library. It was not because of arrogance, but it was really unnecessary. If fearless experts were to come here, it would be useless even if they sent some guardians here.
Looking at the countless Jade Slips, Minghe was naturally tempted. He was very anxious to make them his. But based on his current strength, he’d better spend contributions to see these Jade Slips than plunder. Minghe firstly wanted to see the records of the Battlefield of God and Demon. Jade Slips with such records were the least common on the floor. Moreover, it would not cost him too many contributions.
With only 1,000 contributions, Minghe obtained all information about Battlefield of God and Demon on the floor, including all creatures, Treasures of Heaven and Earth, Forbidden Lands, and Treasure Lands. Minghe really benefited a lot from this information, but he was shocked by a piece of information, more amazed than before when he knew Untainted Land was not the only one.
The Chaos seemed to be boundless, but it actually had a limit and only a few people saw it. According to the records of the Jade Slips, the Chaos was not the only one. Strictly speaking, there was four Chaos, which respectively were the Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern Chaos. Minghe was located in the Eastern Chaos.
In the other three Chaos, there was also a Rakshasa as strong as Great Divinity Pangu. Like Great Divinity Pangu, experts in each era played the same role and did the same thing. However, 3,000 worlds would be born from the four Chaos during Creation of Heaven. They were changed from Rakshasa of Three Pure Ones’ corpses. Therefore, what entered Battlefield of God and Demon this time was the true Deva-loka.
The Battlefield of God and Demon was in the center of the four Chaos and connected with them. In each era, when the four Chaos developed to meet special conditions, Battlefield of God and Demon would be initiated. Then, experts of Origin in the four Chaos and Deva-loka would go in, but no one knew what the special conditions were.
Certainly, after entering Battlefield of God and Demon, all people of the four Chaos and Deva-loka would appear in Lower Layer of Battlefield of God and Demon. In the Lower Layer, people of the four Chaos could not meet each other. Only after entering the Middle Layer could they be considered to be living in the same world. So to speak, the Lower Layer of Battlefield of God and Demon was a buffer zone, the Great Way’s protection for ’newcomers’ of each era.
The Middle Layer of the Battlefield of God and Demon was divided into five regions, which were respectively Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, and Central Regions. The Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Regions respectively corresponded to the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Chaos. At present, Minghe was located in Eastern Region, but Central Region was the heartland of the Middle Layer, where Spiritual Air between Heaven and Earth and Air of the Divine Law were more condensed than those in the four regions.
In Central Region, the four Chaos truly mixed with each other, so the complexity was imaginable. Although there were numerous Fated Chances, it was more dangerous than the four regions. In case of any carelessness, one could die without a burial place. In that place, a man of A Half Step to the Fate Realm could not be counted as an expert. Probably, those of A Half Step to the Supreme Realm were many.
At thought of this, Minghe gasped in horror. He could well imagine how was Central Region, where the four Chaos gathered. He had some thoughts on the intention of the Great Way. Since there were countless Fated Chances and Demon and numerous experts in Battlefield of God, experts of Origin of the four Chaos and Deva-loka in each era gathered there to kill each other for Fated Chance, survival, and even for killing. Due to endless killing, Battlefield of God and Demon was worthy of the name.
However, everything in the Battlefield of God and Demon was almost like the Great Way’s cultivation of undead insects. Similarly, it tempted experts of Origin in each era to come here with endless Fated Chances in the Battlefield of God and Demon, made them grow in the slaughter, and finally became the strongest. At thought of this, Minghe looked solemn, wondering about the purpose of the Great Way’s cultivation of undead insects.
