Chapter 445: The sect’s treasury of knowledge

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: Arya

“System?”

Gu Qing Shan silently called out in his mind.

Silence.

The System’s chime didn’t ring out.

Gu Qing Shan felt it was strange.

This has never happened before has it?

He wanted to look closer into this, but there was no time for him to slowly think about it right now.

`

Ye Ying Mei was about to return.

The three Hallmasters will have to discuss how to kill Wang Hong Dao.

If I return late, the other two might notice something.

Gu Qing Shan was heading to the platform as fast as possible.

A few moments later, he arrived.

Just in time as well, since Ye Ying Mei had also just returned.

“These are the two treasure tools we prepared for the past several hundred years, they are powerful but you will have to look for the right chance to use them” Ye Ying Mei said.

Saying so, she opened her palm.

Two balls of light lightly floated above her palm.

Inside the pink light was a thorn as thin as a hair.

While floating in midair, it was letting out a sharp screeching sound.

Space around the thorn was cracking and ripping constantly.

It was very easy to imagine the kind of power that this treasure tool was able to put out once it activates.

Inside the blue light was a transparent, shining talisman made from top-grade spirit jade.

Unlike the pink light, there was no unnatural phenomenon around it.

When Gu Qing Shan glanced at the spirit jade talisman, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of security.

“This is the talisman I made, it’s capable of receiving 1 attack from Wang Hong Dao, which means you will only have a single chance” Ye Ying Mei told him.

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

Ye Ying Mei was an expert talisman crafter, even the meeting gift she gave ‘Gu Qing Shan’ before was a defensive talisman.

You could see just how well-versed she was in this field.

“Give it here and leave everything else to me” Gu Qing Shan said.

Ye Ying Mei was still a bit hesitant.

Looking at the two powerful treasure tools, she wasn’t quite willing to give them up.

“Ying Mei sis” Gu Qing Shan muttered, “all you’re giving up is a few items, but I’ll be risking my very life itself”

Zhao Wu Chui also sent his voice to Ye Ying Mei through inner sight: “Give them to him, even if he fails and gets killed that’s his problem. Wang Hong Dao won’t find out that we had anything to do with it”

Even then, Ye Ying Mei was still hesitant.

Both of these treasure tools were items that she and Zhao Wu Chui spent untold amounts of effort and countless years to make.

But she’ll be giving it away just like that.

Her gaze fell onto the treasure tools, a bit unwilling to move away.

All of a sudden, the sky darkened.

In the blink of an eye, every light on the floating islands all around them was shut off.

Seemingly sensed something, the islands stopped in place as well.

Cultivators who were still moving about on the islands sped up and hurriedly returned to their rooms.

This was an iron rule that every sect followed.

—–the reason was to prevent spies who infiltrated the sect to take advantage of “Danger Hour” and ruin their formations.

The three Hallmasters sat still on the platform.

This place was inside the sect, completely different from Qi Yan’s personal island.

Qi Yan’s personal island only had a small-sized quarantine formation.

Once “Danger Hour” comes, they can only stay inside the quarantine formation without moving.

But Guang Yang sect’s floating island had a formation that covers the entire island itself.

Cultivators do not have to find specific places to hide.

Even so, the three Hallmasters’ expression changed.

Zhao Wu Chui pulled out a talisman and checked.

The characters “Xiang” and “Ji” on the talisman were alternating nonstop.

Finally, the character “Xiang” grew to take up the entire talisman.

It was “Danger Hour”

A thunderous roar came from the ground below.

This roar seems to signal the death of all things across the world.

The realm demon had awakened.

The world went silent.

No living beings dared to utter a sound.

Inside the quarantine formation, Ye Ying Mei listened to the realm demon’s roar.

“This doesn’t feel right” Ye Ying Mei muttered: “Didn’t it seem to awaken faster than always?”

Zhao Wu Chui took out a thick stack of talismans, seriously flipping through them one by one until he finished and put them away.

“That’s correct” he confirmed it without any doubts, “for the last few dozen days, it had been awakening about 5 minutes faster than it always does”

The two of them fell silent.

The realm demon’s awakening was getting quicker and quicker, speeding up day by day.

Will there be a day where it won’t sleep anymore?

If that happens, what should the cultivators do against this unbeatable demon?”

Without a way to replenish spirit stones, the quarantine formations cannot run forever.

When that happens, it’ll be death for everyone.

Gu Qing Shan who has been just staring at them until this point finally spoke up: “This world is doing to end sooner or later, Ying Mei sis, it’s time to do or die”

Looking at him, Ye Ying Mei loosened her mind.

That’s right, with the realm demon here, it’s just a matter of time until the world ends.

Why not risk it when they finally have the chance?

“Since you already swore an oath to the heaven’s path, I will give them to you, but remember, Wang Hong Dao has been at Cryptic realm for too many years to count, he’s capable of many things that you can’t even imagine” Ye Ying Mei reminded him.

Zhao Wu Chui also gave him some advice: “Up until now, even I can’t say that I fully grasp his strength”

“Me as well” Ye Ying Mei said: “Although I’ve been by his side for so many years, I still don’t know his true strength for sure”

“When you see the chance, you have to use everything you have, do not hold back, and definitely do not hold any wishful thinking”

Seeing how stern they are, Gu Qing Shan also replied seriously.

“Don’t worry, this is my life we’re talking about, of course I won’t hold anything back”

Seeing his attitude, the two Hallmasters were pleased.

Ye Ying Mei raised her palm a bit

The two glowing lights of blue and pink floated in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Very carefully, Gu Qing Shan stowed the treasure tools away.

“Old Zhao, there’s something else”

“Tell me”

“I’ve been collecting a lot of information regarding Wang Hong Dao, so I know that he grew up in the sect, the scriptures and Blade techniques he practices also come from the sect’s treasury”

“That’s true, what do you have in mind?”

Gu Qing Shan answered: “Xiong Ji Hall is responsible for all of the sect’s resources, including the sect’s treasury, I want to do into Xiong Ji Hall to see the scriptures that Wang Hong Dao practices”

Zhao Wu Chui hesitated for a bit.

There are a few particularly powerful secret techniques that Wang Hong Dao had always forbid other people of the sect from looking.

Furthermore, the only keys to the sect’s treasury are in Wang Hong Dao and my hands.

Many of those secret techniques were created and hidden by Wang Hong Dao himself.

Should I really open the gate for Qi Yan to let him see them?

As a Cryptic realm cultivator, his vision and capabilities would of course far surpass that of a normal cultivator.

The techniques he creates are invaluable!

Seeing Zhao Wu Chui so hesitant, Ye Ying Mei smiled.

“Old Zhao, how much longer do you intend to act like a loyal guard dog?”

Her tone was mocking him.

Hearing that, Zhao Wu Chui nodded.

True, Wang Hong Dao’s techniques are unclear and vague, understanding them isn’t an easy task.

In fact, it would take an immeasurable amount of time to study them.

But Qi Yan is already going to risk his life.

Within that short time, the most he’ll be able to do is understand the bare basics of the techniques and get a better understanding of Wang Hong Dao’s capabilities.

There’s no way Qi Yan would be able to learn to use any of them under these circumstances!

Most importantly, Wang Hong Dao already placed several powerful layers of protective lock seals on the method to control the lock seals on my body.

If anybody other than Wang Hong Dao were to touch them, the jade tags would destroy themselves.

If Qi Yan happens to touch them, it’ll be even better.

That way, no one besides Wang Hong Dao will know how to control the demon insects in my body.

There’s no need to be afraid of letting Qi Yan see those techniques.

It could instead be a good thing for me.

“Take it!”

Thinking through everything clearly, Zhao Wu Chui generously took out a seal and threw it to Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan caught it in his hand.

“That’s right, old Zhao, the more I understand about Wang Hong Dao, the more sure I am of killing him”

Gu Qing Shan laughed as he declared.

Ye Ying Mei reminded him: “You have to take a good look at those techniques, although Wang Hong Dao’s strength is with the Blade, he’s been researching spells to control dead bodies. During the last few years, he’s fully grasped a lot of powerful corpse-manipulation techniques”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be very focused” Gu Qing Shan said.

He then turned around: “Gu Qing Shan”

“Your disciple is here”

Shannu answered as she stepped forward.

Gu Qing Shan ordered: “Since you’ve become a Sainted realm, come with master, we will select a few sword techniques for you”

Sword techniques?

Hearing that, Zhao Wu Chui couldn’t help but stop them: “Wang Hong Dao doesn’t have any sword techniques, he’s a Bladesman”

“Just taking a look doesn’t hurt, it can open his eyes a bit more as well” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Shannu instantly: “As master says”

Gu Qing Shan then led ‘Gu Qing Shan’ away without turning back.

While Zhao Wu Chui still wanted to say something, the pair of master and disciple had already gone down the platform and left.

———seems like he doesn’t intend to listen to anything I say.

Zhao Wu Chui’s lips twitched a bit, swallowing the words he was about to say next back in
