368: Protoss Library
The God Race's Scripture Pavilion was a three-story ancient pagoda, its body a heavy brownish-green, covered in traces left by the erosion of time.
It was only over a thousand zhang tall, appearing quite insignificant compared to ancient divine pagodas that were often hundreds of millions of zhang high.
However, this place was one of the core important areas of the God Race.
Wu Ning surveyed the terrifying Restrictions and Dao Formations hidden on the ancient pagoda, then glanced at the equally inconspicuous Giant Realm Puppet in front of the pagoda, and couldn't help but ask God Xi:
"Such an important place, can an outsider like me enter?"
"Don't worry, the Scripture Pavilion has three levels.
The latter two levels are the truly important areas and require a token from the Elder Council to enter.
The first level doesn't have as many Restrictions; anyone from my God Race can enter freely."
"If you follow me, no one will stop you, of course."
God Xi moved with light steps and soon arrived at the ancient pagoda's main entrance.
"Godly Maiden!"
"Greetings, Godly Maiden, may the Godly Maiden be well!"
Upon seeing her, some members of the God Race immediately bowed, clearly showing God Xi's high status.
God Xi nodded slightly and led Wu Ning directly into the pagoda.
"Who is that person, actually following the Godly Maiden?"
"It's the first time I've seen a male of the opposite sex beside the Godly Maiden.
What's his relationship with the Godly Maiden?"
"He seems to be a Human Race member, but he does look quite good..."
Many members of the God Race gathered, whispering and constantly observing Wu Ning from the side, their eyes filled with curiosity and inquiry.
"I heard the Godly Maiden is very close to a Human Race Prodigy.
Could it be him?"
Someone exclaimed in a low voice.
"I heard that too.
That Human Race member is a supreme Prodigy, and it seems he's already a Dao Lord expert at only tens of thousands of years old..."
"No way, that's so abnormal?"
"How is that possible?
Becoming a Dao Lord at tens of thousands of years old, is the Dao Lord Realm that easy to Breakthrough?
Is he the Dao's personal son or something?"
"My Old Ancestor is already a billion years old and still hasn't Breakthrough."
Many people looked incredulous.
"This matter is indeed true!"
Just then, a clear voice sounded, followed by a white-robed youth, ethereal as an immortal, flashing into existence in front of the pagoda.
"Yu Liufeng!"
"Godly Child Liufeng!"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
This white-robed youth was a Godly Child of the Divine Hall, hailed as the number one in the younger generation of the Divine Emperor Realm, and also the one most likely to enter the Divine Emperor Realm earliest among the younger generation.
Yu Liufeng ignored them, merely looking at Wu Ning's disappearing back at the ancient pagoda's entrance, sighing softly:
"This Wu Clan Dao Child of the Human Race indeed achieved the Dao Lord Realm at tens of thousands of years old."
"The Myriad Realms are too vast; there will always be some anomalies that defy common sense.
Becoming a Dao Lord at tens of thousands of years old is not impossible."
"Perhaps I should also go out and explore..."
...
Wu Ning also heard the discussions of the God Race members, but he didn't pay attention; he had grown used to it after being in the God Race for so long.
After entering the Scripture Pavilion's main entrance with God Xi, the scene before him suddenly opened up.
From the outside, the first level of this Scripture Pavilion didn't seem large, no more than three hundred zhang high and only about two hundred zhang long and wide, but its internal space was tens of thousands of times larger than it appeared from the outside.
The surrounding and upper pagoda walls emitted a soft white light, illuminating the vast first-level space as brightly as day.
Wu Ning looked around and saw rows upon rows, densely packed wooden shelves and stored books; it was simply an ocean of books, and even the surrounding pagoda walls were filled with densely packed stored books.
He clearly experienced the meaning of the phrase 'vast as a sea of smoke' for the first time.
Compared to it, the Wu Clan's Scripture Pavilion could only be considered a small book pavilion, with less than one ten-thousandth of its collection.
This was the gap in heritage.
God Xi casually picked up a book, flipped through it, and softly said to Wu Ning, "You've basically visited all the places in the clan that you're allowed to see.
Other places are either inconvenient to go to or not worth going to."
"This Scripture Pavilion contains books and ancient texts collected and compiled by our clan over countless years, covering the humanities and history of various Myriad Realms, strange tales, and unusual records—all-encompassing.
You should be interested."
Wu Ning surveyed the vast sea of books before him; he was indeed very interested.
Among these countless books, who knew how many strange tales and secret histories of the Myriad Realms were recorded, as well as countless epic chronicles submerged in the long river of time—all things he was interested in.
Of course, he couldn't miss the System's sign-in.
Wu Ning called out to the System in his mind and directly used ten annual sign-ins:
[Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a supreme Dao Divine Ability—One Qi Transforms Into Three Pure Ones!]
[Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a top-grade Dao Artifact—Life-Death Brush!]
[Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a Five Elements Dao Divine Talisman!]
...
[Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a large Immortal Crystal Ore Vein!]
[Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining fifty million years of sign-in Cultivation!]
Listening to the continuous System prompts, Wu Ning couldn't help but exclaim that the God Race's Scripture Pavilion was indeed a good place!
He then continued to sign in, stopping only after using more than thirty annual sign-ins.
He gained many good things, even several top-tier Divine Ability secret arts that the God Race did not transmit to outsiders.
However, most of these Divine Abilities were based on the God Race's Cultivation methods.
Even if an outsider managed to Cultivate them by chance, without a Divinity, they would be unable to unleash their power.
A flash of inspiration crossed Wu Ning's mind, and he immediately remembered that he still had a Space Creation Divinity.
Now that his Cultivation was sufficient, he could find time to refine it.
He didn't know when the Origin Secret Realm would open.
For the foreseeable future, Wu Ning stayed in this Scripture Pavilion, reading extensively and diligently studying.
The books on the first level numbered in the trillions, and could be roughly divided into four categories:
Humanities and History: Recording the customs and traditions, geography, powerful forces, and historical changes of various great worlds in the Myriad Realms, as well as various major events that occurred throughout history in the Myriad Realms, such as hegemon wars and the rise and fall of races.
Accounts and Biographies: Mostly records of various experiences written by God Race experts during their travels through the Myriad Realms, with a few containing their insights and understandings of Cultivation at various stages.
The accumulation over countless years was also an extremely terrifying quantity.
In addition, some were biographies specifically written by the God Race for many fallen experts in the history of the Myriad Realms, seemingly not wishing for them to be forgotten in the long river of time.
Strange Tales and Secret Histories: Countless strange occurrences and mysterious anecdotes from the endless years of the Myriad Realms, as well as the little-known secret stories of countless experts and forces.
Knowledge of All Things: Recording various immortal medicines, divine medicines, Artifact Refining Materials, rare treasures, and Heaven And Earth Treasure of the Myriad Realms, as well as introductions to the hundreds of millions of races and countless forces in the Myriad Realms.
It was like an all-encompassing ancient library.
With trillions of books and ancient texts, Wu Ning directly released his Divine Thought to quickly scan them.
Only when he encountered an interesting book would he pick it up and carefully study and appreciate it.
