In the Heavenly Book Pavilion, Luo Jing, who had finished his routine work and cleaning, sat in the reading area, quietly flipping through the book in his hand.
On his face, he was wearing a human skin mask given by Ji Canghu, which perfectly concealed all scrutiny from the Heavenly Book Pavilion.
No one could have imagined that this honest, hard-working and motivated young man would be a demon cultivator from the Western Regions.
Not far away, Lu Li, dressed in green, was humming a tune as he moved between the bookshelves, seemingly looking for something.
As for the fact that she was able to hide from the many inspections of the Heavenly Book Pavilion, Luo Jing was not surprised. After all, she was the descendant of the Heavenly Demon.
Before the Faceless Demon Ji Canghu became famous, the Demon Minister Yan Song had already intimidated everyone.
When it comes to the ability of disguise and lurking, Lu Li is no worse than Ji Canghu.
Although the loss of the Heavenly Demon's Heavenly Tool should be an epic weakening for her as the descendant of the Heavenly Demon.
But she could sneak into the Manggu Mountains at will, so it was natural for her to enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion to read books with ease.
Soon, Lu Li walked over with a pile of books and sat down opposite Luo Jing. They looked like they had nothing to do with each other.
But at the same time Lu Li sat down, two books appeared next to Luo Jing.
There was no one paying attention to the two of them in the corner, so naturally no one noticed their unusual behavior.
Those two books seemed to have been in Luo Jing's hands originally.
Luo Jing still acted as if he didn't know Lu Li. He casually picked up the two books that Lu Li had exchanged and opened the first one.
In this book, there are several yellowed pages, which are the fragments of the Book of Eternal Life.
No one knew how Lu Li did it, but she was able to accurately and quickly find the remaining fragments of the Book of Eternal Life among the vast collection of books in the Heavenly Book Pavilion.
It’s a pity that the fragments of the Book of Immortality contained in this book do not mention any secret techniques.
Luo Jing read it carefully and found that it was just a diary of complaints written by the Demon Refining Ancestor in his early years.
Putting down this book, Luo Jing picked up the second one.
There are also a large number of records of previous cracking, mixed with a few pages of fragments of the Book of Eternal Life, which are exactly the same as the Book Sea and Consciousness Hall of the Soul Refining Sect.
Luo Jing skipped all the cracking records and only read those few pages of fragments.
But the content of the fragments is still a boring complaint diary, without any value at all.
Luo Jing put down the book in his hand and shook his head.
Obviously, this kind of book of immortality that is placed out in the open and can be read by anyone cannot be valuable.
The major forces may not be able to decipher the contents of the Book of Eternal Life, but they can distinguish which ones were written by the Demon Refining Ancestor in his early years.
Even if this kind of early fragment does mention the secret manual of martial arts, it is probably of no use for reference.
Luo Jing raised his head, only to find that Lu Li had disappeared at some point.
He was not surprised by this.
Luo Jing has become accustomed to the mysterious and secretive nature of this descendant of the demon.
He even felt that this woman might have schizophrenia.
Although the two had only been in contact for less than three days, Luo Jing had discovered several times that this woman would talk to herself in the air.
Sometimes I even quarrel with the air.
All the mentally ill patients who saw it said it was good.
Seeing Lu Li disappear, Luo Jing picked up the two books that contained the fragments of the Book of Eternal Life and walked to the bookshelf, putting the two books back in place according to the numbers on the pages.
This is the 31st floor of the Heavenly Book Pavilion, which mostly contains classics and historical books that have nothing to do with cultivation. Therefore, there are not many people here.
Most people who come to the Heavenly Book Pavilion are naturally interested in the scriptures on spiritual practice.
So the entire thirty-first floor was empty and deserted, with few people.
Luo Jing put the book back on the bookshelf and was about to leave and go back to continue deciphering his "The Magic of Immortality".
But at this moment, he saw a familiar face.
Diagonally opposite, a young man was searching for books on the bookshelf with his eyes darting around.
The two people's eyes happened to meet.
Luo Jing recognized this person's identity. It turned out to be the rich young man he had met on the way to Haiyan City before
Why did this guy come to Haiyan City
Luo Jing was slightly surprised.
And the rich young man obviously recognized Luo Jing.
He was stunned at first, then a smile appeared on his face and he nodded towards Luo Jing as a greeting.
—Quite polite
Luo Jing put the book back on the bookshelf, blocking the other person's line of sight.
Luo Jing had no intention of making friends, at least not before he got rid of all his demonic spiritual power.
Turning back to the reading area, Luo Jing continued his studies.
If he wants to decipher "The Magic of Immortal Path", he must understand the many advanced cultivation terms in it.
It just so happens that what the Heavenly Book Pavilion lacks the most is books related to basic cultivation knowledge.
Although there are no top-notch cultivation secrets in the Heavenly Book Pavilion, the vast collection of books, just like the various textbooks in his previous life, can always help Luo Jing.
Luo Jing returned to his original position and continued reading the book. He verified and deduced the knowledge he had read with the "Immortal Magic" in his mind.
Lu Li, the descendant of the Heavenly Demon, did not appear again. It seemed that she only found the two books that contained the fragments of the Book of Eternal Life.
It was not until the afternoon, when Luo Jing got off work and left the Heavenly Book Pavilion, that he walked into the dark alley and found Lu Li, dressed in blue, standing in front of him waiting for him.
Seeing Luo Jing coming, Lu Li raised his eyebrows and said, "You actually know the King of Zhenbei? How did you two know each other?"
Lu Li seemed very interested.
Luo Jingze was confused: "What King of Zhenbei?" What's wrong with this woman
Lu Li said: "It's Zhenbei King Lu Yu... Don't you know?"
She looked at Luo Jing in surprise and said, "When you two met on the 31st floor just now, that guy took the initiative to greet you, right? But why did you ignore him... Is there a grudge between you two?"
Lu Li looked curious.
Luo Jingze was slightly stunned, then understood.
"Is that guy the Zhenbei King Lu Yu?"
King Zhenbei is a legendary figure in the Central Plains Divine Dynasty.
Of course, I am referring to the previous generation of King Zhenbei.
When the empress ascended the throne two hundred years ago, King Zhenbei played a key role.
The action to expel the demon minister Yan Song was also led by King Zhenbei.
He can be called the pillar of the Divine Dynasty and a legend among men.
Not only does he have a profound level of martial arts skills and is able to rival cultivators in the Taixu Realm, he is also a military god when it comes to leading troops in battle. He sits in the north and keeps the enemy outside the Longmen Mountains, and is the biggest obstacle in the eyes of the demon cultivators of the Soul Refining Sect.
However, perhaps because he was obsessed with martial arts, this famous King Zhenbei never married in his life and naturally had no children.
It was not until thirty years ago, when the King of Zhenbei was about to die, that he had a frail and sickly son.
His son inherited his throne, but he was frail and sickly, lacked his father's aura and charisma, and rarely showed up in public.
During these thirty years, the influence of the Zhenbei Palace gradually weakened, and the Dayue Kingdom had the opportunity to rise.
