Library of Heaven’s Path 2: Eternal Destiny

Vol 2 ch 5 : Helping Zhao Ya and Others Cultivate

In the following two days, to avoid trouble, Zhang Xuan neither went out nor received guests. Yu Xiaoyu and the others were also granted the cultivation techniques suitable for the Body Tempering Realm, allowing them to focus on breaking through to higher realms.

On the third day, the last piece of bone was refined. At this point, every bone in Zhang Xuan's body was as translucent as jade and as hard as iron. If he were to strike something, it would undoubtedly produce a sound as loud as steel.

Peak of the Jade Bone Realm!

Although his strength hadn’t increased and remained at 99 horsepower, he was unable to break through. However, along with his cultivation advancement, his reflexes, agility, and speed had significantly improved. In terms of combat power, he was more than twice as strong as he was two days ago.

When he encountered the Liu family head again, he could easily crush him with a single finger. Even Lu Ming, who had broken through to the Divine Soul Realm, could only fight him evenly!

Of course, this was without using the Pathos of Heaven sword technique. Once that was used, even the Dharma Aspect Liu City Lord might not be able to contend with him. With such strength, Zhang Xuan truly stood at the pinnacle of White Rock City.

“Go discuss with them.”

With a thought, he returned to the New World.

"The Source World is fraught with danger, and Master Kong seems to be in peril. Are you sure you want to go there?"

Zhang Xuan scanned the room.

"Of course! Wherever the teacher goes, we will follow. Don’t worry, teacher; we will strive to catch up to your pace and not hold you back…" Zhao Ya nodded.

At this moment, the girl, with her pure Yin physique fully activated, exuded both grace and charm, merging two different sensations into a unique illusion.

"Yes! With the teacher’s guidance, we believe we can definitely open up a new world!" Zheng Yang said, slamming his spear on the ground.

"Teacher, the more dangerous it is, the more we must go. Only in that way can we support each other. Our strength is far inferior to yours, but as long as we unite, we can certainly help!" Yuan Tao added.

"This..."

Zhang Xuan hadn’t expected that after explaining the situation in the Source World, everyone would still have this attitude. He looked somewhat helplessly at the distant Hui Ling's residence: "What do you think?"

The former Sovereign of the Free Sky smiled slightly: "You and I are married, so of course, I will go wherever you go! Don’t think about abandoning me. Besides, Master Kong is leading the way; why can’t I go?"

"I’m going too! The Master Teacher Continent has already thrown me away once, so I definitely can't miss this time!"

Luo Qiqi pouted: "If you really don’t take me, I’ll just go through the passage you’re using. You know my personality; if I say it, I’ll definitely do it!"

Seeing that they were equally persistent, Zhang Xuan had no choice but to nod: "Since you all want to go, then let’s all go together. However... you must first enter the [Xuan World]. There is enough Source Energy here. After adapting in this environment and gaining some cultivation, entering the Source World won’t be dangerous."

Strength lies in numbers. The Source World is very dangerous, but having come from the Master Teacher Continent, they had already gone through countless trials together. This level of crisis was nothing.

Moreover, a higher world means a chance to challenge stronger opponents, which would also be a new experience for everyone.

"Alright, we’ll follow your arrangements."

Understanding his concerns, Lingxi did not refute him this time.

Zhang Xuan nodded and waved his hand. The group immediately vanished from the room, reappearing in the Xuan World the next moment.

At this time, the Xuan World had a diameter exceeding one billion square kilometers. The Heaven's Fate Energy formed colossal pillars supporting the space, and countless Source Energies were descending through the furnace formed by the Primordial Yellow Energy.

Pointing like a sword, Zhang Xuan directed his finger at the sky.

In that moment, a massive black hole appeared above the Xuan World, and countless unrefined Source Energies fell, enveloping everyone within.

Feeling the rampant Source Energy, everyone turned pale and instinctively took a step back.

Although they had known about the terror of this substance in advance, the firsthand experience was still overwhelmingly uncomfortable, as if land animals had been thrown into the water, gasping for breath.

This was Source Energy!

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly: "I will help you open up the Source Pool, and then impart the cultivation techniques to you. Once you can cultivate, you will adapt!"

Since the ascenders couldn't find a Source Pool, Zhang Xuan utilized his creation abilities to help them open new spaces. This technique had been tested by Sun Qiang and was quite effective.

More than an hour later, everyone had their own Source Pools and had ignited the furnaces using Primordial Yellow Energy.

As he ignited the furnaces for Lingxi, Zhao Ya, and others, they didn’t have to worry about the Primordial Yellow Energy, so their furnaces all reached imperial grade! This meant they could easily absorb more than a hundred units of Source Energy.

Not only that, but the Source Pools formed by opening up space could also hold an immense quantity of Source Energy, each exceeding the saint grade!

With this,

The group of people felt as if they were standing at the peak of the world.

With this kind of talent, combined with the techniques from the Library of Heaven's Path, their so-called progress would probably be as simple as drinking water or eating.

After completing these tasks, Zhang Xuan finally let out a sigh of relief.

At this point, the Heaven's Fate Energy he had just received from Liu City Lord had been completely consumed, leaving him with not a single unit. After living a comfortable life, he was now back to being poor.

With a flick of his finger, several books appeared in each person's hands, detailing the cultivation methods from the Body Tempering Realm to the Jade Bone Realm.

"You all take your time to cultivate. I’ll step out for a bit…"

After finishing what needed to be done, Zhang Xuan vanished from his spot and reappeared in the small courtyard of his residence.

Just as he stepped out of the small courtyard, Sun Qiang approached.

"How did it go? Have you found a way to make money?"

After obtaining an identity token from the Liu City Lord, Sun Qiang had been going out every day for the past few days, looking for ways to earn money. He should have found something by now.

"There are some ways to make money, but they all require a bit of effort on my part."

Sun Qiang said as he pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket.

Zhang Xuan opened it casually and saw that it was densely packed with a lot of information.

"Repair the incomplete manual 'Xuanlong Palm' left by the sixth principal of White Rock Academy. This martial technique has been destroyed for three hundred years. Many have tried to restore it, but countless masters have attempted it over two hundred years and have ultimately failed. The reward is 2 million Source Coins."

"City South Sun Chengyou, although a scattered cultivator, is quite wealthy. Unfortunately, he was injured by Source Beasts in his youth and has little time left. If you can help treat him, you could receive a reward of one million Source Coins."

"During a trip, there is a plant called [Luoyu Flower], which releases a fragrance that can calm the mind and enhance the speed of cultivation. Therefore, their quiet rooms are in great demand. However, half a year ago, this flower turned yellow, and the fragrance has faded, losing its calming power. If you can restore it, you would receive a reward of one million Source Coins."

"In Huaiyuan Mountain’s Golden Leaf Valley, a peak Source Beast at the Jade Bone Realm has emerged. If you can kill it, the White Rock Medicine Hall will reward you with one million Source Coins..."

"There’s a notorious thief named Luo Qingkong, with a reward of 2 million Source Coins! Luo Qingkong is a peak expert in the Jade Bone Realm, skilled in escaping. He once stole the 'Zigui Mingyue Picture' from the Hanyuan Royal Family."

...

Zhang Xuan scanned through the paper; any of the tasks recorded by Sun Qiang could generally earn more than a hundred Source Coins if completed. The paper was filled with over ten such items.

"It seems I was underestimating White Rock City."

Earlier, he had thought it would be difficult to earn 30 million Source Coins, not knowing how long it would take. Now it seemed that with a population exceeding ten million, as long as he searched earnestly, there were indeed many ways to earn money...

"Which one should we choose first?"

His eyes landed on the list and he carefully read through it twice. After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Xuan suddenly shook his head: "If there’s money to be made, just earn it. There’s no need to get tangled up. Let’s just choose one!"

The situations listed above might be difficult for others to accomplish, but to him, they were just matters of course.

Since they were all similar and hard to choose from, he might as well tackle them one by one, finding ways to resolve each issue!

His gaze fell on the first item, prompting Sun Qiang to lead the way as he pushed

open the door and stepped out.

"The first one is at the Xuanlong Pavilion within the academy. Young Master, do you want to disguise yourself? After all, there are too many people wanting to apprentice under you."

Sun Qiang smiled as he observed.

"No need. I entrusted Principal Lu to explain yesterday. Besides Yu Xiaoyu, Liu Mingyue, and Hong Yi, I will consider a few students as auditors. But who I take in will be my choice; anyone who comes forward to recommend themselves will be turned away."

Zhang Xuan stated.

Sun Qiang's eyes lit up.

This is a clever strategy.

A few days ago, Young Master had made such a big commotion that the entire White Rock City knew about it. Countless people wanted to apprentice under him. If he truly ignored them, there would probably be thousands crowding outside, begging for attention.

If it came to that, would he accept or reject them?

If he accepted them and was unsatisfied, it would seem inappropriate. If he rejected them, others might think he was too proud.

By directly stating that he would accept auditors but choose on his own, it indicated that everyone had a chance. In this case, if they rushed to beg, it would be tantamount to digging their own graves.

Thus, even if everyone knew that he wouldn’t be recruiting anytime soon, they would still hold high expectations and dare not act rashly.

Sure enough, with this news, as he walked through the campus, many students displayed excitement, yet no one dared to approach him. They simply showed various reactions.

"Look, Teacher Zhang is coming over! Was my hair messy just now?"

"If your hair wasn't messy, your face was certainly covered in powder!"

...

A young master from a family was practicing martial arts when his little brother following him saw Zhang Xuan passing by. He leaped up and grabbed his brother, preparing to slam his head down.

"What are you doing, boss?" the little brother asked.

"Since we’re competing, I’ll give you a hand."

The young master spoke loudly and then lowered his voice: "No more talking, quickly counterattack. Let me show you the martial arts I just learned…"

The little brother understood and suddenly charged forward.

The two began to fight.

Moments later, the battle ended, and the young master looked at the retreating figure with excitement: "Was my martial arts standard just now? Did Teacher Zhang see me?"

Feeling his swollen face, he muttered, "I couldn’t see you..."
