A Thousand Years of Immortal Dreams
Chapter 11 Searching for History, The Last Dao Lord
When casting a lightning strike spell.
If we use the Thunderclap Talisman at the same time, can we make it so realistic that it's indistinguishable from the real thing?
In this way, one can confuse the public and achieve a fatal blow.
Cao Wang wasn't sure if it would work, but he was willing to give it a try.
Secondly, Lei Fa is the coolest!
The image of the eldest brother, who could conjure heavenly thunder with his bare hands, had always been Cao Wang's safety ambassador.
……
……
After making his selection, Cao Wang went straight to register.
"Non-transferable, non-learnable, non-saleable, to be returned after two weeks, and any damage will be compensated at the original price!"
The old man registering the documents mechanically gave the instructions.
"Thank you very much, senior. I, Cao Wang, will remember this forever!"
Cao Wang took three steps back, held the spell, bowed deeply to the administrator, and introduced himself.
Because, I've heard that many hidden big shots disguise themselves as librarians, sweepers, or tower watchmen, and if they're lucky, they'll get some guidance and protection.
But the other party was clearly not.
Because he didn't even glance at Cao Wang.
"By the way, senior, does our library have any general books on secular history? I've heard things are very chaotic outside, a chaotic era of two hundred years. I'd like to learn about the history of our Tai Xuan Continent!"
Finally, the old man raised his head, stared at Cao Wang with his cloudy eyes, and pointed to the door on the left.
"This is the traditional book area, containing the four categories of classics, history, philosophy, and literature, in various genres. Admission is free and no level is required!"
"This junior, Cao Wang, thanks you, senior!"
Cao Wang bowed again, clinging to a sliver of hope, and introduced himself once more.
Then he went straight into the library.
Classics, History, Philosophy, and Literature.
It represents books from four different fields.
The Classics section includes classic works by various masters, serving as fundamental texts for explaining the great principles of heaven and earth and cultivating one's mind and character.
The History section includes official histories from various eras, as well as imperial edicts, memorials, biographies, geographical records, and government documents.
Cao Wang's main purpose was to establish a historical section.
Secondly, there is the sub-section, which covers various practical techniques and esoteric knowledge, including military strategy, agricultural books, medical books, astronomy and calendrical calculations, and numerology.
Finally, there is the collection section, which mainly includes poems, essays, and literary criticism by famous figures throughout history.
This is also a key area that Cao Wang needs to focus on.
……
As soon as Cao Wang entered, he was dazzled by the wide variety of traditional books inside.
The bookshelves, which are over twenty meters tall, support the entire hall in a cylindrical shape.
Each cylindrical bookshelf contains no fewer than 20,000 books.
In total, the collection contains at least two million books.
Its vast size and extensive collection of books made it the most magnificent library Cao Wang had ever seen.
……
The Annals of Taihuang, the True Records of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Comprehensive Mirror of Taixuan, the Covenant Records of the Four Sects...
Upon arriving at the historical area, Cao Wang began to examine it carefully.
It's impossible to understand something from the beginning.
Cao Wang must accurately find books related to the Primordial Dao Court, and even Shen Jingqiu himself, among the hundreds of thousands of books in this historical region.
Because the Tai Xuan Continent spans a vast amount of time, from the Chaos Era of 100,000 years to the Ancient Primordial Era of 100,000 years, then to the Tai Huang Era of over 17,000 years, to the Tai Xuan Era of over 12,000 years, through the dark rule of the barbarians for over 800 years, and now to the Chaotic Era of 200 years.
I want to know more details, but I don't know how much time it will take.
What Cao Wang needs now is to make Shen Jingqiu believe in him quickly, thereby building a bridge of trust.
As for other historical knowledge, I can only fill in the gaps gradually.
The library has information on array formations.
It contains detailed information such as the book title.
Following the numbering, Cao Wang quickly found books related to the Primordial Dao Court.
Especially around the year 12280 of the Tai Xuan calendar.
The Tai Xuan Chronicle: This is a record of major events of the Tai Xuan era, which can accurately show what happened in a particular year.
However, it is said that during the period of barbarian rule, a large number of human books were burned and altered, and the contents of these books are a mixture of truth and falsehood, which needs to be investigated.
"Biographies of the Former Sages of the Four Great Immortal Sects": Biographies of important figures from the four great immortal sects throughout history. Whether Shen Jingqiu had any remarkable achievements in the long river of history can be found in this book.
"The Decline of the Immortal Sects": This book records private events before and after the destruction of the four major immortal sects. The author of the notes was the last disciple of the Taichu Dao Court, making it extremely valuable.
The book seems to be highly authentic.
"The Lost Tales of the Four Immortal Sects": Unofficial histories, rumors, and secrets of the four great immortal sects, some true and some false, but possibly containing genuine information. It records a large number of ancient relics, cave dwellings, and other hidden opportunities related to the four great immortal sects.
……
……
After receiving the books, Cao Wang casually found a corner to sit down.
He was immediately captivated by the contents of the first page.
Tens of thousands of years of rise and fall, and the brilliance as dazzling as stars, are all recorded within.
In the past, books were like hypnotists to Cao Wang; he would fall asleep without realizing it while reading.
But now, he deeply understands the feeling of being so engrossed in work that he forgets to eat and sleep.
Opening the table of contents, one can find a general record of the historical trajectory spanning 13280 years, from the early years of Tai Xuan, through the middle and later periods of Tai Xuan, to the peak of Tai Xuan, and finally to the invasion of the barbarians.
Cao Wang quickly located the year 12280, which is the current time when Shen Jingqiu is.
But after looking for a long time, Cao Wang still couldn't find any record about Shen Jingqiu.
"Could it be that in that era when everyone was exceptionally talented, she was really just a simple, low-level servant? If so, even if we tell her about her past, it will be difficult to change her current situation!"
Putting down his book, Cao Wang rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
"This is just a chronicle recording more than 10,000 years of history during the Tai Xuan era. In the vast torrent of history spanning more than 10,000 years, no matter how outstanding an individual is, they are still insignificant. Perhaps, to find records about her, we will have to search like a skilled butcher dissecting an ox!"
With this in mind, Cao Wang's gaze hardened once more, and he began to read, word by word, line by line.
Time slipped away unnoticed between the lines.
Cao Wang didn't notice that the old man in the library had already looked at him three times at the door.
He didn't know that it had gotten dark outside at some point.
At this moment, the library was exceptionally quiet.
"Found it!"
Just now.
The once silent library was suddenly struck by a thunderclap.
"In the year 12950 of the Tai Xuan Calendar, Shen Jingqiu, the last Dao Master of the Tai Xuan Dao Court and the Sword Immortal Jinghan, succeeded as Dao Master, ushering in the Tai Chu Restoration!"
"The Sword Immortal of Startling Cold... Shen Jingqiu?"
Cao Wang stared blankly at the empty space of the library.
"Is this... the Shen Jingqiu from the jade pendant?"
"Is he really that awesome?"
The book "Tai Xuan Biography" only contains a brief record of the resume of the last Daoist master of the Tai Chu Dao Court.
Whether this is indeed the person in question remains to be investigated.
Cao Wang put down the book, Tai Xuan Biannian.
He quickly picked up "Biographies of the Sages of the Four Great Immortal Sects".
This book records the stories of some of the sages and capable individuals from the four major immortal sects who made contributions to the world.
If Shen Jingqiu is indeed the last Dao Master of the Primordial Dao Court, then there must be detailed records about her.
