Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

Elder Wen nodded with satisfaction.

"Since the headmaster has approved it, I will make an exception and allow you to enter the ancient books area."

"But there are a few rules that must be followed."

He held out three fingers.

"First, you must not damage any books. Second, you must not copy any manuals without permission. Third, each reading must not exceed four hours."

Luo Qingchen agreed to all of them.

"Disciples must strictly abide by this."

Only then did Elder Wen make way.

"Come with me, the ancient books area is on the third floor."

The interior space of the Sutra Repository is extremely large, with numerous bookshelves and various classics arranged in different categories.

The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which makes people feel peaceful.

When he arrived at the third floor, Luo Qingchen was shocked by the scene before him.

The classics here are obviously older than those on the two floors below, and some even emit faint spiritual fluctuations.

"These are the accumulations of the sect over thousands of years."

Elder Wen said with pride in his tone.

"Among them are some lost ancient books that are priceless."

Luo Qingchen walked carefully between the bookshelves, fearing that he might damage any precious books.

His eyes quickly scanned the labels on the bookshelf, looking for information that might be useful.

"Ancient Formation Encyclopedia", "Mystery of Astrology", "Bloodline Inheritance Record"...

These book titles made his eyes light up.

"Elder Wen, where can I start looking for it?"

Elder Wen pointed to a corner.

"Over there is a book about ancient battle formations, it should be helpful to you."

"Remember to put it back where it was after you've finished reading it."

Luo Qingchen nodded and began his treasure hunt.

Luo Qingchen searched carefully in the ancient books area, every book might contain the information he needed.

Elder Wen quietly observed from the sidelines and occasionally offered some advice.

"This book, Analysis of Ancient Runes, may be useful to you."

The old man took a thick ancient book from the bookshelf.

"It contains a lot of lost rune knowledge."

Luo Qingchen took the book and began to read it carefully.

The old paper exudes the breath of time. Although the words on it are a little blurry, they are still recognizable.

He quickly browsed through the contents, looking for information related to the Blood Soul Devouring Array.

Suddenly, a record caught his attention.

"The art of blood soul originates from the ancient magic way. It is based on the essence and blood of living beings. With the help of specific runes, it can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth..."

This was exactly the same evil formation he had seen in the spirit mine!
Luo Qingchen continued reading and found that the history of this magic was even longer than he had imagined.

"It turns out that the art of blood soul has already existed in ancient times..."

He pondered in his mind.

"Where do those black-robed monks come from?"

Elder Wen noticed Luo Qingchen's focused expression and asked curiously.

"Did you find any useful information?"

Luo Qingchen nodded and briefly reported what he had discovered.

"There are indeed some gains, but more data is needed to confirm it."

There was a hint of surprise in Elder Wen's eyes.

"Blood Soul Technique? That is an ancient forbidden technique. I didn't expect that there are still people using it."

"This is indeed a serious problem. Please continue to look for relevant information."

Luo Qingchen flipped through a few more books and gradually gained a deeper understanding of the art of blood soul.

But the star map and Bailing'er's information that he really cared about were never found.

As time passed, Luo Qingchen's brows became more and more furrowed.

Just as he was about to search in another direction, Elder Wen suddenly spoke.

"Are you looking for anything specific?"

The old man's eyes were full of wisdom.

"I have been guarding here for eighty years, and I have a general understanding of the contents of each book."

Luo Qingchen hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

"Disciple would like to know some information about the star map and...special bloodline."

There was a gleam in Elder Wen's eyes.

"Star map and bloodline? This is a very old topic."

He pondered for a moment, as if recalling something.

"Wait a minute, I remember an ancient book mentioned something similar."

As he spoke, Elder Wen walked towards the deepest bookshelf.

There were some obviously more precious books placed there, some of which were even protected by special magic arrays.

"found it!"

Elder Wen took down a tattered ancient book from the top of the bookshelf.

The cover of this book has become blurred and it is obvious that it has a very long history.

"The Fragments of the Ancient Secret Records, this is one of the sect's most ancient books."

"It contains some secrets from ancient times, which may be helpful to you."

Luo Qingchen took the ancient book with both hands and felt a breath of vicissitudes coming towards him.

This book has obviously gone through countless years, and every page is precious.

He carefully opened the first page and saw ancient text.

"In the beginning of ancient times, the sky and earth were dark yellow, and the stars were scattered all over the sky..."

Luo Qingchen read word by word, afraid of missing any important information.

As he read further, he became more and more excited.

This ancient book indeed records some content related to the star map!
"Star Altar, ancient ruins, the bridge connecting heaven and earth..."

"Nine stars in a row, the dragon vein awakens, destiny is upon us..."

These scattered records gave Luo Qingchen hope.

Although the content was vague, it was clearly related to the star map fragment in his hand.

What surprised him even more was that the ancient books also mentioned some records about special bloodlines.

"True dragon bloodline, son of heaven and earth, carrying the destiny..."

"Dragon Soul Contract, the power of the stars, life and death..."

Luo Qingchen's hands were trembling slightly.

These contents are clearly describing Bailing'er's situation!

Elder Wen noticed Luo Qingchen's unusual reaction and asked with concern.

"What's wrong? Did you find any important information?"

Luo Qingchen tried to calm down and nodded in response.

“There are indeed some discoveries, but they still need to be studied carefully.”

He continued to look through the ancient books, hoping to find more clues.

However, what followed disappointed him a little.

The second half of the ancient book was severely damaged and much of the key information has become blurred.

"It's a pity that the book is not well preserved."

Elder Wen sighed.

"It is said that this was discovered from an ancient ruin, and it was already incomplete at the time."

Luo Qingchen thought secretly in his heart.

Although the information was incomplete, it pointed him in the right direction.

The star map fragments and Bailing'er's identity are indeed deeply connected, and this secret may involve some major events in ancient times.

"Elder Wen, do you know more about the Star Altar mentioned in this ancient book?"

Luo Qingchen asked tentatively.

Elder Wen shook his head.

"These are all legendary things, and their authenticity is difficult to determine."

"But since it is recorded in ancient books, it should not be groundless."

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside.

Qin Mingyuan's voice sounded downstairs.

"Luo Qingchen, the time is almost up, how are you doing?"

Luo Qingchen looked at the sky and found that it was approaching the four-hour limit.

He closed the ancient book reluctantly and returned it to Elder Wen.

"Let's stop here for today. Thank you Elder Wen for your guidance."

Elder Wen smiled kindly.

"It's a good thing for young people to have a strong desire for knowledge, but they also need to balance work and rest." "You can continue to check tomorrow."

Luo Qingchen said goodbye to Elder Wen, his heart full of anticipation.

Although today's harvest was not much, it has opened a new door for him.

After returning to the courtyard, Luo Qingchen couldn't wait to tell Lin Wan'er and Su Xiaowan about his discoveries in the Sutra Library today.

"I never thought that these contents were recorded in ancient books!"

Su Xiaowan said excitedly.

"It seems that Bailing'er's identity is really special!"

Lin Wan'er gently stroked Bailing'er in her arms with a gentle look.

"No matter who she is, we must protect her well."

Bailing'er seemed to feel everyone's attention and looked at Luo Qingchen with her big eyes blinking.

Luo Qingchen took out the bronze plate with the star map from his storage bag and placed it on the table to observe it carefully.

"According to the records in ancient books, the star map should be related to some special altar."

"Perhaps we could try to activate it more deeply."

Su Xiaowan asked worriedly.

"Is there any danger?"

Luo Qingchen shook his head.

"It should be relatively safe within the sect, and we now know more about the star map."

He began to circulate the power of chaos, carefully pouring it into the bronze plate.

The fragments of the star map immediately emitted a faint light, and the three-dimensional star map appeared in the sky again.

However, this time the star map is clearer than before and shows more details.

"Look!"

Lin Wan'er pointed to an area on the star map.

"There seems to be some special mark there!"

Luo Qingchen looked carefully and found that there were indeed some additional symbols on the star map that he had not noticed before.

These symbols bear a striking resemblance to the star altar runes described in ancient texts.

"It looks like we're heading in the right direction."

Luo Qingchen was delighted.

"Continue to activate and see what else we can find."

He increased the input of chaotic power, and the star map became brighter.

Suddenly, the bronze plate vibrated slightly.

The star map began to rotate slowly, showing some new areas.

"Is this... the location of another star map fragment?"

Su Xiaowan looked at the new light spots appearing on the star map in surprise.

Luo Qingchen nodded, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"That's right! The star map is guiding us to find the remaining fragments!"

At this moment, Bailing'er suddenly became agitated.

She broke free from Lin Wan'er's arms and staggered towards the bronze plate.

"Ling'er!"

Lin Wan'er wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Luo Qingchen.

"Wait, let's see what she wants to do."

Bailing'er came to the bronze plate and stretched out her little hand to gently touch the projection of the star map.

In an instant, the leaves of the Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass between her eyebrows burst out with brilliant golden light.

A pure dragon power surged out of her body, creating a wonderful resonance with the star map.

The brightness of the star map instantly increased several times, and the entire courtyard was shrouded in golden light.

"My God!"

Su Xiaowan exclaimed.

With the power of Bailinger, the star map showed unprecedented clarity.

Not only that, more information appeared on the star map.

Mountains, rivers, city ruins and even some special buildings are clearly visible.

"This...this is incredible!"

Luo Qingchen looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

With Bailing'er's help, the star map revealed its true appearance.

This is more than just a map, it's more like a complete world model.

"Brother Luo, look over there!"

Lin Wan'er pointed to a certain location on the star map.

"That building... seems to be the star altar described in ancient books!"

Luo Qingchen looked in the direction of her finger and indeed saw a magnificent building.

The building presents a complex geometric shape and exudes a mysterious glow.

"And look, there's another place that's flickering!"

Su Xiaowan said excitedly.

In the southeast direction of the star map, there is a light spot flashing regularly.

"That should be the location of the next star map fragment!"

Luo Qingchen observed the location carefully and found that it seemed to be located in a mountain range.

"Judging from the terrain, it seems to be... the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range?"

The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is a dangerous place near the Qingyun Sect. It is said that many powerful monsters live there.

Generally speaking, few monks dare to go deep into it.

"Mountain of Beasts?"

Su Xiaowan was a little worried.

"It's very dangerous there, do we really want to go there?"

Luo Qingchen pondered for a moment.

"Since the star map guides us there, it means that the fragment is very important to us."

“But you do need to be well prepared.”

At this moment, Bailing'er suddenly withdrew her power.

The light of the star map gradually dimmed and finally disappeared.

Bailing'er also looked a little tired due to excessive consumption.

"Ling'er, are you okay?"

Lin Wan'er picked her up with heartache.

Bailing'er shook her head weakly, but her eyes were still clear.

She pointed in the direction of the Mountain Range of Ten Thousand Beasts and made a slight sound.

Although he couldn't understand what she was saying, Luo Qingchen could feel her determination.

"She's telling us that we must go to the Mountain Range of Beasts."

Luo Qingchen seemed to be thinking about something.

"It seems that this is not as simple as just finding the fragments of the star map."

Su Xiaowan asked worriedly.

"Then when do we set off?"

Luo Qingchen looked at the tired Bai Ling'er.

"No hurry, let Ling'er recover first."

"And we also need time to prepare. The Mountain Range of Ten Thousand Beasts is not a place to joke around."

Lin Wan'er nodded in agreement.

"Then let's get some rest and make plans tomorrow."

It was late at night, and the three of them went back to their rooms to rest.

Luo Qingchen lay on the bed, thinking about what he had gained today.

The records in ancient books, the activation of star maps, the magical power displayed by Bai Ling'er...

All of this proved to him that they were getting close to some great secret.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range may very well be the key to unlocking this secret.

The next morning, Luo Qingchen got up early and started practicing.

After a night of thinking, he has decided to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to look for the fragments of the star map.

But before that, there is still some preparation work to be done.

Lin Wan'er carried Bailing'er out of the room. After a night's rest, the little girl's mental state had recovered a lot.

"Brother Luo, what have you considered?"

Luo Qingchen stopped practicing and said with a firm look.

"We must go to the Mountain Range of Ten Thousand Beasts, but we must not act rashly."

“First, we need to understand the specific situation there.”

Su Xiaowan also walked out of the room and heard the conversation between the two.

"How about we go get some information first?" (End of this chapter)
