Mystical Journey

As he walked out of the corridor, Garen put away his Three Hearted gears as these items were only useful during formal occasions. Otherwise, it would be ridiculously heavy and inconvenient.

He then followed the woman in the white shirt as they entered the library.

The walls of the spacious library were densely packed with countless shiny, white imprints. These imprints were similar in size but varied in shape. Some of them looked like a person’s face while others looked like a mysterious symbol. However, the majority of them seemed to be imprints without any meaning.

As both of them walked in between these imprints, the footsteps could clearly be heard as it reverberated in the spacious hall.

The white-shirted woman was leading the path. She looked rather thin and didn’t seem like she was walking with her feet. Instead, she looked like she was gently floating through the way.

“Every marking here represents a different type of book and its information. There is a slight difference in the marking’s color. The brighter it is, the newer it is and vice versa. You’re free to look around. Just remember to not go to the fifth floor and you’re free to roam around. You don’t have to follow me.”

Garen nodded as he bowed politely to express his gratitude. He then turned around and walked to the staircase which led up to the second floor. There was a row of symbols placed at the edge of the corner of the staircase.

“There’s nothing but traveling here. I should go and look for something related to Killing Moves,” Garen had always had an interest towards libraries as this place represented the storage of knowledge and an invisibly huge wealth.

As he glanced over all these markings, the genres changed from travel to cooking and then philosophy.

There were a few cylindrical pillars at the center of the second floor. The giant pillars were structured similar to the Roman pillars and there were three different markings on them.

Garen walked towards and touched the first pillar.

‘’ He casually glanced through the information inside, which he flipped the book with his Willpower. Garen finished the book rather quickly and it was rather useless to him as it was all about the combat strategy below the Water Mirror Level.

He shut his eyes as he stood still for a while before opening them again and headed towards the other stone pillar.

Suddenly, a person gently pressed onto the wall’s marking nearby him. Garen could see a black-shirted woman appear on his left without his realization from the corner of his vision.

She was a woman with a veil which only revealed her blue eyes. While her face was hard to make clear of, she had a rather good body proportion and she seemed to be injured as she shivered gently while giving off a sense of courageous.

Suddenly, a man in white shirt appeared beside the woman in the black shirt as he stared coldly at her.

“Do you think you’re safe inside this place? What a joke!” The man said coldly.

The black-shirted woman didn’t even bother looking at him as she closed her eyes and analyzed the book in the marking.

“Xunque, you’re still putting up a pointless struggle. You’ve killed twenty-three of my brothers and ruined one of my wife’s eyes. You’ll not escape this place no matter what, even if this is the Scarlet Snow Sect’s great library! No Three Hearted Disciples here will protect you!” The white-shirted man laughed coldly.

“I didn’t do anything,” Xunque, the black-shirted woman replied coldly.

“It’s the same even if your sister had done it!” The man didn’t hide his killing intent at all.

Garen glanced at them as he realized that they were not members of the Scarlet Snow Sect from their conversation. They were outsiders who were qualified to enter this area.

He then used his privilege as an Energy Machinist to look up any information from the information system. He soon then found a set of rules.

‘Outsiders are required to pay a fee of five hundred thousands Crystals to access the Great Wall Library for a month. However, it is limited to two floors.’

“There’s such a rule huh,” Garen was speechless as he looked at the fee of five hundred thousands Crystals. One could only access the library for a month for such a huge amount of wealth.

The two not far away from Garen started pulling and pushing each other. The white-shirted man pulled the woman’s shirt and tore her shirt apart, revealing her black bra and naked body.

“I guess your sister’s gene runs in the entire Household. Everyone has such a lustrous body! You’ve forgotten the most important thing here, The Great Wall Library doesn’t restrict people from attacking each other…” The white-shirted man started smirking in an evil manner.

The black-shirted woman was only wearing a black bra and a pair of white tight jeans. She then took a few steps and leaned against the wall. One could even see her flustered expression through the veil.

“My sister is the one who killed your people. You should look for her, not me!!” She immediately explained softly.

“Your sister has incredible power. Isn’t it suicide if I were to find her? Isn’t it better to gain some benefit from you?” The man started smirking.

Ah!

The man used an unknown method to tear away the girl’s pants. Surprisingly, she wasn’t anything underneath her jeans and her entire lower body was exposed.

She tried to run away but the man managed to grab her legs and pin her down to the ground.

Her legs were spread wide open, revealing a mysterious black patch in between the legs. A glimpse of excitement could be seen in the man’s gaze as he stepped onto the woman’s leg with one of his legs while he tried to loosen his pants with his hand.

Garen was speechless as he soon heard the sound of them having a go at each other. He was lost for words as he saw such a sight when he had just arrived the place.

He then reached his hand out opposite to where they were. However, it was strange that the duo didn’t seem to notice him as he walked past them. They seemed to be minding their own business without a care to the rest of the world.

He could see that both the man and woman were enjoying the session. That woman didn’t seem like she was forced into the situation but rather she was trying to push him away half-heartedly. Their lower bodies were linked together and they didn’t even realize Garen as he walked past them.

Garen then looked up the information system and it was only then he when found out that the Three Hearted Disciple had invisibility, a natural ability when one was in the library. It was a special privilege given by the library so that they could choose not to interact with the outsiders.

Garen then looked at each of the markings as he ignored the two.

Soon, the man seemed to have achieved satisfaction as he left the area while holding his pants up. The black-shirted woman quickly wore her shirt and cleaned up the floor before continuing looking at the books from the marking.

After a while, another man with golden hair in a red suit appeared beside her.

“I’ve arrived Xunque!” This man was even more direct towards the woman in the black shirt as he naturally opened his zips and inserted it into her as he pulled up her newly worn skirt.

Both of them started having a go at each other.

Garen was speechless as he looked at them as he interacted with a marking that resembled a flower.

“Ahh!!~~~”

The mixture of high pitched voice from the male and female had broken off his reading mood.

Garen’s mind went blank and his fingers started twitching before he continued interacting with the marking.

“Ahh~~~ What pleasure!! Give me more!!” The black-shirted woman started screaming in pleasure.

“What the…” Garen started to feel annoyed as he didn’t want to leave the area before finishing the books on this level. However, the noise coming from these two were extremely disturbing. Even if his mood was as stubborn as a mountain, he would still be slightly affected due to desire as a male.

“Oh~~~ Faster! Faster! Faster!!” The woman moaned once more.

They had definitely heard Garen’s voice but since they were in a heated moment, they decided to completely ignore him.

Garen’s expression turned for the worse as the library wasn’t what he imagined as it would be at all…

“You guys…”

“Ah!!!”

The man and woman moaned in unison.

Garen was turned off as these two had enjoyed themselves to the point where they had ignored their surrounding.

Garen waved one of his hands with a gloomy look on his face.

Boom boom boom!!

Within the series of explosion, a powerful Energy Field clashed onto them. The powerful momentum the two who were in the middle of their actions flew away as they rolled on the ground.

“Get out if you want to get more action!!”

Garen growled as he felt the atmosphere in this floor were filled with obscenity.

The two of them were so frightened that they left the area without wearing anything.

In the end, he had lost his interest in reading the books. Garen then left the second floor and went towards the third.

The third floor consisted mainly of practical variants of Battle Skills, Secret Techniques and other techniques. However, reading these would require some amount of points. Garen currently had a thousand points in which he had earned from the final battle. However, these books would require thousands of points in order to be read.

The third floor was oval in shape. There were already people in the area when Garen entered. There were two people, one male and the other a female, in an exquisite white-gold attire kissing and hugging each other passionately.

These two seemed to have some amount of authority as they were able to see Garen entering the third floor. However, they nodded at him out of respect before they continued kissing each other.

Speechless, Garen walked further into the library and he soon encountered another pair of lustrous couple kissing and touching each other passionately.

“Am I in the library or in a dating sanctuary?” Garen was hopeless as he walked deeper in. While only members of the Scarlet Snow Sect were allowed to enter the third floor, Garen was not able to meet any Three Hearted ranked disciples.

The third floor was filled with couples. Some of them were kissing passionately while the others were doing immoral activities. There even were some trying to make their partners happy.

All Garen saw were these scenes from the beginning till the end. The quiet atmosphere of the library had completely turned into a dating sanctuary for these couples.

Garen then stopped seeing such occurrence once he had entered the fourth floor.

The fourth floor was also the highest floor he could access.

There were only a few markings on this floor as there were about only a few dozens of them. There wasn’t even a single person in the spacious hall. As he entered the place, only his footsteps could be heard.

Garen then casually picked a marking to read.

‘Giant Dragon’s Body: Level Five Ice Series Technique. One can produce defense similar to the chilly scales of the huge dragon at the highest level. Highest defense grade that could be achieved is Level Five.’

It caught Garen’s interest so he continued reading the content within.

‘This technique has been obtained by killing other sect’s disciples. The upper limit is Level Five and unable to enter the Resonance Level. It is suitable to nurture slaves and followers. It is also suited to be used as a basic technique when opening a new school and be used at different levels. Six hundred points required.’

“It requires points… ” Garen shook his head as he placed it back.

He then looked at another marking.

‘The Frosted Heart: Level Five Ice Series Technique. At maximum level, one is able to produce five additional explosive stars which possess great power. It can be used as an explosive ice bomb to kill people within a certain area at any given time. Each star possesses the power of a New Moon Resonance Level when maxed out. 1500 points required.’

Garen was speechless as he only had a thousand points with him right now and this would need to cost him a thousand and five hundred points.

He moved on to the next one.

‘Coolo’s Icicle. Requires 1500 points. Ability to summon icicles and be used to ambush enemy within a certain area.’

‘Ice Sickle: 2000 points.’

‘Specter’s Body: 1000 points.’

‘Unicorn’s Blade: 1500 points.’

….

….

A variety of techniques kept passing through Garen’s search. He then collected all the books that could be refunded into one spot before making his choices.

These techniques were mostly used to strengthen the disciples who had a lot of time. It could also be used for their own followers as well.

After all, most of the Three Hearted Disciples would go out and open branches across the Northern Yu Province or Scarlet Snow Planet.

Although these techniques were powerful and could reach up to Level Five, it required long hours, where the shortest duration would be decades and the long duration ones would take up to centuries. It required a huge amount of resource and energy. Hence, typical disciples wouldn’t bother choosing these techniques. The real good ones had been hogged by the higher levels and the ones here were typical techniques that could be exchanged with points.

However, what Garen was pondering about wasn’t this issue.

What he cared about most were the abilities that he once utilized, the gifted ability that could instantly learn anything.

If he could enhance these techniques just like how he had learned the Secret Technique, he could probably push the Scarlet Snow Technique to an extremely powerful level.

It was unfortunate for Garen that these techniques required points that cost from the hundreds to thousands. It wasn’t something that he could afford at the moment.

“Looks like I can only pick one out of all of these.”

He looked at his potential points and had four points left. He wasn’t sure if it was enough to enhance them at all.

“I better take up some missions to collect more points in order to build my foundation before going to the Void Battles,” he decided to go with his plans as he started glancing at the techniques in front of his eyes.
