Soon, it was lunchtime. Everyone gathered in front of the library. After half a morning, Lu Chenxing had already printed thousands of books, almost one book every few seconds.
However, compared to the library's total collection, it was probably less than five percent. He would have to come back in the afternoon, and by then, he should be able to print about ten percent.
In this way, in just over ten days, the library's collection would be fully printed. By then, Lu Chenxing would become a walking encyclopedia, and his All-Knowing Eye and Victorious Fighting Method would have a foundation and could be officially put into use!
With a good mood, everyone returned to the guild. During dinner, Yan Pingsha also brought up what she wanted to ask for. She said seriously, "Xiao Lu, I want to complete my advancement mission, but this might require your help."
Hearing this, Lu Chenxing did not hesitate at all and nodded, "Of course, you set a time and tell me, and we can just go directly."
Seeing him being so straightforward, Yan Pingsha, who had been a little worried, relaxed. Her serious expression softened into a gentle smile, "Thank you, Xiao Lu."
Lu Chenxing looked at her gentle smile and couldn't help but marvel. Compared to the first time he met Yan Pingsha, she seemed to be getting softer and softer now. Was it because they were becoming more familiar with each other?
"It's nothing, it's what I should do. You'll be part of our guild sooner or later anyway," Lu Chenxing said with a laugh.
This lunch ended with Yun Qiaoqiao and Xiao Zhi's overeating. Looking at their astonishing appetites, Lu Chenxing felt that if this continued, the guild's chefs would have to expand their staff.
But thankfully, all these expenses were paid by Guo Jiahao, which made Lu Chenxing, as the guild leader, feel a bit of lingering fear. If he hadn't invited Guo Jiahao to join the guild, he would have had to pay for all of this.
At this eating speed, a million a month for food expenses might not even be enough!
After the meal, Xiao Zhi ran around playing in the guild, while Yan Pingsha and Lu Chenxing sat in the tea house chatting. "Xiao Lu, you don't need to come with me tomorrow. You haven't reached third-order perfection yet, and you can't enter a fourth-order secret realm. What I mean is, you can just customize two cards for me."
"No problem!" Lu Chenxing smiled. "Just tell me your requirements for the cards."
He knew what Yan Pingsha meant. She was probably afraid that he would rashly follow her, and even if he did go in, he was still only in the early third-order. Perhaps he could protect himself, but he definitely couldn't help.
And he wasn't the kind of person who would insist on going along and being a burden when he knew he would be useless.
"My advancement mission is to kill mid-fourth-order Black Tail Scorpions and Sand Worms. Killing them is easy; the main thing is that they are social creatures. I need a way to infiltrate and leave. Can you do that?"
"Yes, how many cards do you need? Are five enough?" Lu Chenxing asked while thinking.
Hearing this, Yan Pingsha quickly said, "No, no, two are enough."
"It's fine, keep them as backups. After all, when you're out, there are always unexpected situations. I'll go make them, you just wait here." Lu Chenxing said, standing up and walking towards the card shop on the first floor. He already had an idea.
Upon arriving at the card shop, Lu Chenxing silently recited, "Using the principle of invisibility in conventional light-attribute magic, plus the refraction rules of Original Light, and finally adding Yin Power to conceal aura, visual and spiritual perception are all covered... Done!"
The Weaving effect flickered, and the spell formation was generated. Lu Chenxing directly took out five third-order original cards, sealed the spell formation within them, and handed them to Yan Pingsha. This even saved the trouble of making cards.
"Xiao Lu, thank you." Yan Pingsha looked at the golden border on the original cards, her fingers gently caressing them, then seriously thanked Lu Chenxing.
Lu Chenxing waved his hand, indicating that she shouldn't worry, "It's a small matter, just a trivial effort."
After dealing with this matter, Lu Chenxing called Guan Yang and Yun Qiaoqiao, led them into the cultivation room, and imprinted a Tai Chi pattern on each of their foreheads. Then, he covered it with Yin Power, allowing them to slowly comprehend the Yin-Yang Way, hoping they could also gradually grasp the rules like Guo Jiahao.
After all, these two were his disciples, and Lu Chenxing would not hold back anything he could teach them.
Especially since the gods they believed in were Guan Yu and King Arthur, he could teach them with peace of mind, without worrying about being backstabbed or anything.
"Thank you, Master." Yun Qiaoqiao bowed and thanked Lu Chenxing after receiving the teaching. Guan Yang also quickly cupped his fists and bowed.
"No need to be so polite. You are my disciples, and it is only right for me to teach you," Lu Chenxing smiled, then added, "I also have a Body Refining secret technique here, which you two should need. I'll tell you about it."
After teaching them the principles of the Innate Body Refining Technique, he left a wisp of Innate Qi within each of them, allowing them to comprehend it on their own.
Then, Lu Chenxing no longer delayed, and with Xiao Zhi, he plunged back into the library.
Amidst the tedious work of copying books, time quickly passed, and evening arrived. Returning to the guild, after dinner and tucking Xiao Zhi to sleep, Lu Chenxing took out the spatial teleportation card Yu Ziyue had given him that morning.
After playing with it for a moment, he left a message for Xiao Zhi, then went alone to the underground cultivation room and activated the spatial teleportation card.
Although he didn't know what was on the other side of space, he believed Yu Ziyue wouldn't harm him. The reason was simple: there was no need for it.
When the spatial teleportation ended, Lu Chenxing arrived at an independent warehouse. In the very center of the warehouse, a huge energy aggregate floated in mid-air, emitting various colors of light. High-density, high-purity energies of various attributes continuously emerged from it, filling the entire warehouse.
"Holy cow! A third-order secret realm core!!!" Lu Chenxing's eyes nearly popped out, his face filled with shock!
He couldn't imagine that the thank-you gift Yu Ziyue mentioned was this thing?! In comparison, he was more willing to believe that Yu Ziyue had given him the wrong item.
But then he noticed a box on his left side. The red box even had the words 'Lu Chenxing' carved on it. He swallowed, calmed himself, and walked over to open the box.
A crisp, vibrant branch appeared before his eyes. The rich world aura immediately made him recognize it. "A World Tree branch?!"
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the conditions he had discussed with Bai Yuntian seemed to be these two things? So how did Yu Ziyue know?
After a moment of stunned silence, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he didn't want to owe Yu Ziyue a favor, these two items were truly too good! She was really good at giving gifts! And they were grand gestures!
Knowing that Lu Chenxing was asking the military for these two items, she directly prepared a set in advance and sent it over. This was something he absolutely couldn't refuse right now!
With these two items, he could soon advance to the mid-third-order, and even the late third-order was guaranteed. As for peak, he couldn't say.
After all, it was already difficult to advance before, and now the upper limit had been increased by dozens of times, so he really had no confidence.
"Never mind that much. Since I'm here, I'll cultivate first!" Lu Chenxing looked at the third-order secret realm core, which was continuously releasing pure energy, and his heart began to itch.
Moreover, Yu Ziyue giving him this teleportation card clearly meant for him to cultivate directly in the warehouse. After all, if a secret realm core wasn't stored in an extra-dimensional warehouse, its energy would dissipate extremely quickly.
