After entering the passage, everyone discovered that the walls were inlaid with huge luminous pearls. Although the faint light was a little hazy, it was enough for everyone.
After walking in the passage for about half an hour, a little light finally appeared at the end of the passage. Seeing the light, the steps of the people in the passage accelerated a lot. After a while, they finally reached the end of the passage and stepped forward in one step. Got out.
The dazzling sunlight poured down from the sky, causing everyone to close their eyes slightly. After a while, they slowly opened their eyes and looked at the scene in front of them with a look of surprise on their faces.
At this moment, in front of everyone, there was obviously a valley groove. The steep mountain wall extended all the way upward, and finally to the end of the sight. In the three cliffs, there happened to be a very wide open space. At this moment, on that open space, there was a huge and somewhat astonishingly heavy and ancient pavilion standing on it.
His eyes slowly swept across the huge and simple pavilion, and finally stopped on an extremely ancient plaque outside the pavilion. On it, three characters that had been somewhat blurred by the years were looming. out.
"The library!"
Although the ancient handwriting has been ravaged by the years, Xiao Ling and others are still shocked by the ancient artistic conception contained in the fonts. It is worthy of being the mysterious library in the outer courtyard of Canaan College. This plaque alone highlights its identity.
Hu Qian led everyone to walk slowly towards the library. When they were about to enter the library within 20 meters, he suddenly stopped, clasped his fists towards the library and said, "The top five of this year's inner court selection competition have been announced. According to the rules, I brought them here. Please open the door, elders!"
Hu Qian's words, carried by fighting spirit, lingered in the small valley for a long time.
Shortly after Hu Qian finished speaking, Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes and looked at the two gray-robed figures sitting cross-legged on the ground who suddenly appeared at the gate.
The two gray-robed men seemed to have been sitting there originally. This strange scene made Xiao Ling gasp for air and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "A Dou Zong strongman is so terrifying."
These should be the two peak Dou Zong masters in the original novel. They will only show up when Canaan Academy is in life-and-death crisis. If one of these two can make a little move to intimidate those ambitious people in the Black Horn Region, there wouldn't be so many messes in the original novel.
After these two people appeared, they didn't say a word, and even ignored Hu Qian. They were very cool and their demeanor as masters was undoubtedly revealed.
There was no sign of dissatisfaction on Hu Qian's face, so the people behind him could only wait obediently.
The silence lasted for nearly ten minutes in the valley. Then the robes of the two grey-robed figures sitting cross-legged at the gate of the pavilion trembled slightly. Then, under the grey robes, two pairs of eyes, as calm as those of old monks, raised their heads and glanced at Xiao Ling and the others one by one. There was a hint of approval in their voices: "Are these the top five of this year's selection? The quality is much higher than in previous years. Not bad."
Hearing him speak, Hu Qian heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It's all because of these kids' hard work. Please, elders, unlock the space lock for us."
The two grey-robed elders nodded slightly and waved their hands, creating ripples in the space.
Afterwards, Xiao Ling and the others looked at the space half a meter in front of Hu Qian. If they looked carefully, they could find a few very shallow wrinkles. These wrinkles were hidden in the space and were extremely difficult to be found. As they followed the faint wrinkles, they suddenly discovered that the wrinkles in this space were almost like a wall, protecting the entire library behind it!
"This is a space lock, an extremely powerful barrier that only Dou Zun masters are capable of setting up. This space lock was left by a senior in the academy hundreds of years ago. If the two elders inside don't open it with special methods, even a Dou Zong master can't get in. There are Dou Zong masters in your four families and you have broader horizons. You should have heard of this situation more or less. Xiao Ling, this is the first time you have seen it. When you reach that level in the future, you should have a deep understanding of it." Hu Qian explained in front of him.
In the pavilion, two grey-robed men slowly stretched out two pairs of dry hands from their sleeves, and then slowly formed hand seals one by one. As they formed hand seals, Xiao Ling and others could clearly feel two extremely powerful and invisible waves coming out from their palms like waves.
The invisible waves gradually spread, and finally came into contact with the folds of space. When the two came into contact, the space in front of Xiao Ling and others became like a mirror made of water, with ripples constantly appearing. After a while, the ripples stopped, and a door-shaped object was slowly torn open by an invisible giant hand.
"Let's go." Seeing this space door, Hu Qian waved his hand, and then walked in first. Afterwards, Xiao Ling and others followed closely and stepped into the door.
Walking in, the view suddenly became clear, and the attic in front became clearer and clearer. Obviously, everyone has truly entered the space enclosed by the space lock.

Chapter 28 Treasure Hunt
Hu Qian, who was standing outside the pavilion, saw Xiao Ling and his group had already entered, and smiled at the two grey-robed men sitting cross-legged on the ground and said, "Haha, thank you for your help, elders."
"It's just a mission." The two mysterious figures, all wrapped in gray robes, didn't even move their bodies, and their hoarse, faint voices sounded slowly.
"Now you can enter the library on your own. Remember, no matter what you want, you can't force it, because everything inside is added with an energy layer. If your hand can pass through the energy layer without any hindrance, then you can take away the things inside. Of course, no matter how much you can take, there is only one thing you can take out of the library. Don't be greedy, otherwise you will end up with nothing."
"And if you can't penetrate the energy layers, then give up. With your strength, you can't break them. In recent years, there are people who enter the library every year, but there are also many people who return empty-handed. So, everything can only be left to fate. Don't force something that you can't get." Pointing to the library, Hu Qian turned and said to Xiao Ling and others.
Hearing this, Xiao Ling and the others nodded, looked at each other, and then slowly walked towards the library.
After stepping up the bluestone stairs and arriving at the door of the Sutra-Depository Pavilion, everyone looked at the plaque above the door that said Sutra-Depository Pavilion.
The plaque was a little worn, but it had a kind of breathtaking power that made everyone's heart carry a touch of desolation. Xiao Ling had expected it, and was slightly controlled. After reminding the dazed people, he continued to move forward.
"Go in! The door will only be open for one hour. After one hour, no matter whether you get what you need or not, you must come out!" said one of the gray-robed men, and at the same time, he waved his sleeves, causing an invisible wave, and the door of the Sutra Library was slowly opened.
The door opened wide, and an ancient and desolate atmosphere wafted towards them, causing Xiao Ling and the others to quickly focus their minds and not dare to have any other thoughts.
Lin Yan, who had an unrestrained personality, took the lead and walked in, and the others followed him into the library one after another.
After all five people entered the library, the open door slowly closed with a creaking sound, and finally closed tightly.
Hu Qian, who was standing by, watched this scene, stroked his beard, and chuckled, "I wonder if the beast fire inside will be taken away by that kid Xiao Ling."
Hearing the sound of the door behind them closing tightly, everyone quickened their pace and moved inside. After nearly five minutes, a pale yellow light came from not far ahead. Several people couldn't help but walk a little faster. After a while, they finally passed through the dark passage. The bright light shone towards them, making everyone turn their heads slightly.
What appeared in front of everyone was an extremely spacious room. On the walls around the room, there were nearly a dozen energy shields. At this moment, these energy shields were slowly emitting light, illuminating the room like daylight.
Xiao Ling stepped forward and said to everyone, "The treasures here are all hidden in the light balls. You need to break the light source to obtain the treasures. The higher the level of the treasure, the stronger the light ball will be, and it will be more difficult to break. If there are fighting skills that are suitable for each other, you can help each other keep an eye out. If you can't break the light ball, everyone can help solve it together."
Hearing this, everyone nodded. They all had deep feelings for each other, and helping each other would definitely yield better treasures than fighting alone.
Suddenly, a stream of light flashed and fell in the direction of Liu Qing. Xiao Ling, who had been concentrating his soul perception, reminded him, "Liu Qing, there is a ball of light heading towards you. Take it down and see what it is."
Hearing this, Liu Qing focused his attention and discovered a ball of light flying towards him. He leaped up, gathered his strength and punched out, and the ball of light was broken.
He picked up the thing inside and looked at it, muttering, "The Xuan-level intermediate technique, Xuanshui Jue, this thing is useless to me."
Xiao Ling said, "Unless the martial arts fighting skills are of rare species, just throw them away if they are not earth-grade. Can you show me any medicinal herbs? I plan to make a beast fire. Do you want anything?"
Han Yue at the side said softly: "Just choose a martial arts fighting skill, or high-quality elixir, there is nothing missing."
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, more than a dozen balls of light flew out of the attic. Xiao Ling left a sentence: "Pick the ball of light with more energy." and flew forward.
Everyone also perked up and started to choose suitable treasures.
Xiao Ling did not blindly capture the light balls, but stared at all the light balls that flew out, releasing his soul power, stretching his soul perception to the maximum, and sensing light balls with stronger energy.
Suddenly, a ball of light with wind attributes deeply attracted Xiao Ling's attention. The energy intensity within it was the strongest Xiao Ling had noticed since he came in.
Without any further hesitation, Xiao Ling took a step forward, leaped into the air, stretched out his hand, and firmly controlled the green light ball in his palm.
Although he was not very familiar with wind-attributed fighting spirit, Xiao Ling still relied on his powerful physical strength and thick fighting spirit to shatter the ball of light on it and pulled out a light green scroll from it.
Xiao Ling looked at it and read out the contents recorded above: "Wind attribute earth-level intermediate fighting skill "Wild Wind Slash", this is pretty good, Lin Xiuya, do you want it?"
When the people on the side heard this, they all looked at Lin Xiuya. The fighting spirit attribute that Lin Xiuya cultivated was the wind attribute, which was very suitable for this fighting skill.
"Of course I want it. This technique is very suitable for my wind-attributed fighting spirit, and I happen to use a sword." Scratching his head, Lin Xiuya answered a little embarrassedly.
With a flick of his hand, the scroll flew into Lin Xiuya's hands. Xiao Ling said with a smile, "You're lucky, kid. I'll call you when I'm looking for someone to fight. Don't be a coward then."
After taking the scroll and putting it away like a treasure, Lin Xiuya replied seriously: "As long as you are not sending yourself to die, I will accompany you. We are brothers in my heart."
Shaking his head and ignoring this guy, Xiao Ling continued to focus on finding beast fire and checking those light balls with strong fire energy.
Half an hour later, everyone had chosen their own treasures. Han Yue and Lin Yan each had an intermediate earth-level martial arts technique, while Liu Qing had an intermediate earth-level fighting skill "Intentional Blast Punch". Only Xiao Ling had not found the seventh-level phantom golden fire of Han Xian in the original novel.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Isn't that beast fire found in the library? If not, it's not unacceptable to get a high-level medicinal material."
Han Yue, who was standing by, saw that Xiao Ling seemed dissatisfied, so she stepped forward and said, "There's still half an hour left, don't be too anxious, at worst you can just take the Tian Fei Fruit that Lin Xiuya found for you, it can be used to make the main ingredient of the Dou Ling Pill, it's also pretty good."
Seeing his senior sister comforting him like this, Xiao Ling was no longer so anxious, and replied with a smile: "Just go with the flow. If the right beast fire doesn't appear when the time comes, you can just take the Heavenly Jade Fruit."
Before he finished speaking, a ball of blazing red light suddenly burst out from the book pavilion, attracting Xiao Ling's attention. The energy it exuded was a little stronger than the ball of light equipped with "The Wind's Breathless Slash".
Without any hesitation, Xiao Ling ran towards it, stepped on the bookshelf and jumped into the air. He used all his strength to activate the suction palm, and the ball of light fell into his hand.
With his familiarity with fire-attributed fighting spirit, Xiao Ling directly pierced through the light ball with his hand and took out a porcelain bottle from it. Looking closely, he saw a blazing golden fire inside, which was the seventh-level phantom gold fire.
Seeing this scene, everyone gathered around. Seeing that it was indeed a seventh-level beast fire, they all sighed that Xiao Ling was so lucky that he actually got a high-level beast fire.
Xiao Ling also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he waited a little longer and did not think about leaving early.
I finally waited for you, but fortunately I didn't give up.
After putting away the bottle of beast fire, Xiao Ling said to everyone with a smile: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time, let's go out together." After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the door.
Everyone stopped talking and followed him out of the library door together.

Chapter 29 Extraction
As the five people left, the vortex-like energy shields surrounding this huge room began to slowly shrink.
After a moment, the energy shield turned into a small dot and completely dissipated with a slight crackling sound.
At this moment, the entire huge room became empty. No one could have imagined that this place was once filled with countless treasures that were enough to cause a sensation in the outside world.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, a gray-robed man suddenly moved his sleeves slightly, and then Xiao Ling and others felt a vast and powerful invisible energy scanning through them. The energy was so strong that it made them feel horrified.
The invisible energy seemed to only play a role in scanning, so it only lasted for about ten seconds before receding like a tide until it completely dissipated.
"The time is up, let's all go. Remember, you must not reveal anything about what happened here today, including the information inside the library, to anyone." A hoarse old voice slowly circled at the door.
Hearing this, everyone nodded and said they would abide by the rules.
Seeing that everyone had come out of the library, Hu Qian came over with a kind smile on his face and said in a calm tone, "Have you all chosen the treasures you like? No one will return empty-handed, right?"
Xiao Ling did not intend to hide it. He directly took out the porcelain bottle containing the seventh-level phantom gold fire and joked with a smile: "The academy must have spent a lot of money this time. Two earth-level intermediate fighting skills, two earth-level intermediate skills, and a seventh-level beast fire. The academy is really rich. In our Jia Ma Empire, even the royal family does not have earth-level fighting skills and skills." The combined value of several people's items is worth about tens of millions of gold coins. Moreover, some things cannot be exchanged for gold coins and need to be bartered.
Hearing this, Hu Qian's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "This time the reward is indeed much more valuable than before, but it is what you deserve. Don't worry, this little bit is just a drop in the bucket for the dean."
Xiao Ling nodded without comment. Mang Tianchi was an elder of the Thunder Clan, one of the eight ancient clans. His strength had reached that of a semi-saint and he must be very wealthy. This was nothing to him. It was a pity that the patriarch of the Xiao Clan, which was also one of the eight ancient clans, could only use the intermediate level Xuan grade martial arts. How could the gap between people be so huge?
Hu Qian glanced at the five people, and after seeing that there were no injuries, he clasped his fists at the two gray-robed men again, turned around and walked towards the invisible door frame torn open by the invisible big hand.
"Follow me closely and don't touch those spatial wrinkles, otherwise I can't save you." When they were about to pass through the invisible door frame, Hu Qian tilted his head to remind them, then kept his upper body still, took a step, and stepped out of the door. Afterwards, Xiao Ling and others followed carefully, not daring to make the slightest movement.
With the disappearance of Xiao Ling and others, this small valley hidden somewhere unknown finally returned to its former tranquility. It would not open again until the end of the next year's inner courtyard selection.
After returning to the room again, Hu Qian closed the door he had just opened, looked at the five people who had just come out, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "The rewards have been collected. The next step is to go to the inner courtyard to practice. When you get to the inner courtyard, you will have to worry about not having enough fire energy. You must work together, otherwise you may be bullied."
Everyone nodded, saying they understood. Xiao Ling didn't care. He would grab a wave of fire energy in the fire energy hunting competition first, and then rely on his own alchemy skills, so the fire energy would basically be inexhaustible. As for being bullied, Xiao Ling didn't even think about it. If he was really pushed to the limit, he would just let Rayquaza go to fight.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, just go back. Report here in two days, and I'll take you to the inner courtyard then." Seeing that everyone had understood what he said, Hu Qian didn't keep anyone anymore.
After bowing slightly, several people left the study room one after another. After chatting for a few words on the way, they returned to their own courtyards to practice.
Back in his room, Xiao Ling thought about it and called out the system panel.
"System, open my personal panel."

Xiao Ling was not interested in the strange things, so he put them directly into the system space. There were quite a lot of gold coins, so he took them out and put them in the storage ring. Money is still useful when you are out. He took out the prescription and a few pills and began to check them one by one.
