Number One Under Heaven - Chapter 97

Chapter 97: Treasure of the Azure Dragon God

Once they arrived at the exit, Tian Yi jumped out the same way he jumped in, except he had Han Yixue in his arms this time, jumping out with her.

Upon landing, the first thing they noticed was another gate, but this time it was much larger than the previous one. If the last one was around 50 feet, then this one would be around 100 feet, doubling in the size!

And repeating the same process as before, Tian Yi held Han Yixue’s hand and pulled her along the golden path. Han Yixue did not feel as nervous as last time, especially not after what had happened just a moment ago.

Han Yixue had a smile on her face as she held his hand. The warmth was warmer than before, and the feeling of unfamiliarity was almost gone. She believed that if they continued this all the way up to the 7th floor, then she might be unwilling to let go of that hand when the time comes.

“Here it is, the 2nd floor,” said Tian Yi.

Han Yixue looked up, but the view was pretty much the same as before, a massive room with shelves upon shelves of scrolls. Actually, it seemed a bit larger than the previous floor.

“The 2nd floor is pretty much the same as the 1st floor, except it’s just a bit larger. The third floor is where the real ‘Supreme Library’, begins to show itself,” said Tian Yi.

“Come, although the place may look the same, the scrolls are all different, and even way stronger than before. Each floor has their own restrictions, such as the first floor where one is only allowed to borrow 3 scrolls every 150 years. Ah, when I say borrow, it does not mean they are allowed to take that scroll with them. Not only the people, but even the scrolls are not here physically. So in order to borrow them, they will have to engrave it into their Soul, bringing it along with them as they leave. Oh, you are also not allowed to share the contents of the scrolls that you’ve borrowed from the Supreme Library of the Heavenly God to anyone. If you do, then Heavens will personally smite you with its Heavenly Tribulation, turning your entire body to smithereens along with your Soul, losing your chance to reincarnate forever.”

“Master, reincarnation is real?” asked Han Yixue.

“Of course. It is as real as it can be. As long as one has their Soul intact at the time of their death, then they will be reincarnated with all their previous memories erased.”

“I wonder what my previous life was like…” she said.

“Not every person in this World is a reincarnation, you know? You, for example, has never reincarnated, so you are still in your first life,” said Tian Yi.

“Eh? Really? How can Master tell?”

“You can call it a talent,” he smiled.

“Is that so…”

“Ah, here, look at this one.” Tian Yi takes out a scroll from one of the shelves and handed it to her.

Han Yixue reads the words written on the side of the scroll, “Sealed Heaven’s Gaze”.

“This is a perfect Technique for you because of your special eyes,” said Tian Yi.

“My special eyes?” Han Yixue was unsure of what he meant by that.

“What, you thought your eyes were only beautiful and that was it? You have a special pair of eyes called the ‘Treasure of the Azure Dragon God’. It got its name from the first living being to have such eyes, the Azure Dragon God, and because it took care of it like it was the world’s most precious treasure, it got the name ‘Treasure of the Azure Dragon God’,” he explained.

Han Yixue gentles touched her eyelids, “Treasure of the Azure Dragon God… what a fitting name…” she whispered to herself.

Just like the Azure Dragon King, she will treat her eyes as if it was the world’s most precious treasure. It was something healed by her Master after all.

“That ‘Sealed Heaven’s Gaze’ is a Divine Technique meant for those with special eyes, so it will be a fitting Technique for you. It also comes with many advantages, such as being much easier to master than any other Divine Techniques in this place, and once you do master it, you can instantly start the next stage, the ‘First Heaven’s Gaze’. There is a total of ten stages for this Divine Technique and the one in your hand is the first stage, so it will be the most fitting for someone at your Cultivation since you still have a lot of room to grow. It is always better to start something like this early rather than the latter,” he said.

“Once you reach the 4th stage, you will be able to see through all illusions under Heaven. If you reach the 7th stage, no Divine Technique will be able to harm your Soul. And if you manage to reach the final stage, then… you should be able to turn an entire World to smithereens with a mere glance…”

Han Yixue listened like a true disciple and noted down every single word Tian Yi just said to her.

“So, what will you do? Do you want to train in this Divine Technique? I will not force you to Cultivate Techniques and will only give you recommendations,” he asked.

Han Yixue thought about it for a second before nodding, “Master, I want to train in this Divine Technique! Sealed Heaven’s Gaze… I will master it and unseal that seal to let it see the World, just like what Master had done for me!”

Tian Yi did not expect her to accept it with such a reasoning behind it. “Good, then let us go to the next scroll,” he said.

“Eh? We are getting more than one?” she asked.

“Of course. I have a few Cultivation Techniques in mind for the others,” he said.

“The others? I thought you are forbidden to share them?”

“I have my ways,” he smiled.

“…..” Han Yixue did not doubt that and silently accepted it.

After walking a few shelves down, Tian Yi takes out a blue colored scroll that only had one word as the title, and that word was ‘Water’. It was such a simple word, yet it had this tyrannical aura around it.

“Water?” Han Yixue asked.

“Simple, right? But do not let such a simple cover fool you because this scroll contains almost every water attribute Cultivation Technique under Heaven!”

“Almost every water Cultivation Technique under Heaven?!” Han Yixue was shocked.

Such a small scroll contains so many Cultivation Techniques?! Such an item was the dream of every Cultivator with a water attribute Spirit Vein!

“Who is Master picking this for?” she asked.

“Wanshan has a Heavenly water attribute Spirit Vein, so this will be useful in her hands,” he said.

‘Ah, senior sister was also a disciple of Master…’ she thought.

Because of Xuan Wanshan and Tian Yi’s weird master and disciple relationship, she often forgets the fact that she was also his disciple!

Taking the blue scroll with him, he walks to another shelve and takes out another scroll. It was colored red this time around.

And just like the blue scroll, this red scroll also had one simple word which was ‘Fire’ written on it.

“Instead of Water, this one has almost all Fire Cultivation Techniques?” asked Han Yixue.

“Yes, this one is for Meng Xiang. Although she already has a pretty decent control over her Divine Flames, she still needs a lot of knowledge to fully utilize its full power.”

‘Hmm… The Cultivation Techniques on this floor are useless to Yu Yue and Yan Yan. Oh well, I will get them from the higher floors,’ he thought.

“This should be enough from this floor, let’s go and check them in,” he said.

“Un.” Han Yixue nodded and followed him.

Tian Yi led her to a corner where a beautiful girl was sitting behind the counter.

‘Wow…’ Han Yixue was surprised at this girl’s beauty. Although there were a lot of people here with beautiful faces, this girl definitely stood at the top when it came to beauty.

Walking up to the counter, Tian Yi’s eyebrows twitched when he saw the girl.

“We would like to check in,” he said in a low voice.

The beautiful girl glanced at them before looking away without saying a word.

Tian Yi puts the ‘Water’ and ‘Fire’ scroll on the counter to show her, and Han Yixue followed his actions.

The girl takes their scrolls, and then she takes out two pieces of paper and held it in front of them.

Tian Yi looks at the papers in front of him and his eyebrows twitched again.

“….”

“……..”

Tian Yi did not take the papers in the girl’s hand, and neither did Han Yixue because she was waiting for him.

“…..”

The girl behind the counter frowned when they did not take the contract. Do they not know how things work around here because they were new? That shouldn’t be possible because one has to get briefed by their family before being allowed to enter this Supreme Library of the Heavenly God.

Tian Yi made a bitter smile before looking at Han Yixue who also looked at him with curiosity.

window.yaContextCb.push(()=>{Ya.adfoxCode.createAdaptive({ownerId:260971,containerId:’adfox_16328439169239165′,params:{p1:’cquuo’,p2:’gxmp’}},[‘desktop’],{tabletWidth:830,phoneWidth:480,isAutoReloads:false})})

‘Why is he making such a face?’ she wondered.

“Yixue, sorry, but can you check in your scroll along with the two I picked?” he said with an apologetic voice.

“Eh? Sure…?” she accepted without any hesitation.

“Thank you,” said Tian Yi.

The only reason why he did not want to take the contract was because he had to put both his name and his family name on it if he wanted to borrow the scrolls! If he did such a thing, wouldn’t he be announcing his identity as the son of the Celestial Emperor, the governor of this entire place?!

Han Yixue reached out her hands to take one of the contracts, but the contracts were retrieved before she could even take it.

“Huh?” she was confused and looked at the beautiful girl behind the counter.

“?!?!?”

However, what she saw on the girl’s face made her Soul tremble, because the girl had an extremely angry expression on her face!

Standing up, the girl finally spoke, “HOW DARE YOU LOOK DOWN ON ME?!” she roared, causing the entire place to tremble.

The people there snapped their head at the commotion, and some even began running behind shelves to take cover.

“Huh? Master, what did I do wrong to make her so angry?” she asked Tian Yi in panic.

“Ah… It was my fault, not yours…” he said with an apologetic voice.

“???” Han Yixue looked at him with a confused face.

“My actions just now made it seem like we were going to share the scrolls together, and because sharing is forbidden…” he did not continue to speak the obvious.

“….”

Han Yixue finally realized the situation after hearing his explanation, but that did not help calm the situation.

“YOU KNEW AND YET YOU DARED TO DO SUCH A THING IN FRONT OF ME?! DO YOU THINK I AM STUPID?!”

It had actually made the girl even angrier!

The trembling did not stop, and instead, it began shaking even harder!

“Holy shit! I have never seen Heavenly Guardian Dongmei this angry before!”

“They done fucked up now!”

The girl behind the counter was actually the 2nd floor’s Guardian, Heavenly Guardian Dongmei! And the reason she was unable to recognize Tian Yi was because each Heavenly Guardian had their own specialty. Heavenly Guardian Xingfu could see through any illusions and disguise, but Heavenly Guardian Dongmei on the other hand only had an abnormally high level of Divine Sense, making her one of the strongest Divine Sense Cultivators within the entire universe!

“I-If we don’t get out of here fast, her crazy Divine Sense might even affect us!”

Everybody there knew how easy it was for her to lose her temper and go out of control, but they have never seen her this triggered before!

*RUMBLE*

The trembling was getting stronger by the second, and people began disappearing one after one, afraid to get mixed up in this mess!

“…..”

Han Yixue’s soul was also trembling, she has never felt such a pressure before. She felt as if her soul could shatter any second!

“IT’S TOO LATE TO IDENTIFY YOURSELVES NOW! I WILL FIND OUT REGARDLESS… AFTER I SHATTER YOUR SOUL!”

Heavenly Guardian Dongmei’s eyes suddenly began glowing red, it was almost like Chao Diyu’s Divine Technique—- but dozens of times mightier!

Tian Yi wraps Han Yixue’s soul with his own, shielding her from the pressure.

The red light that came from Heavenly Guardian Dongmei’s eyes looked as if they could explode out any second, and seeing this, Tian Yi rubbed his temples while sighing.

“DIE—–”

“Dongmei….”

A gentle and Heavenly voice suddenly called her by her given name and nothing else!

“…..”

The trembling suddenly stopped.

Heavenly Guardian Dongmei was frozen on the spot, and her glowing red eyes instantly vanished, revealing her bewildered eyes.

Deep within her eyes, countless emotions flashed by almost instantly.

Ignoring her, Tian Yi grabbed the contract that was sitting on her counter and began writing.

‘Tian Family, Tian Yi, 3 scrolls, Sealed Heaven’s Eyes, Water, and Fire’.

After he was finished writing on the contract, he placed it back on the counter face down.

*Whoosh*

An orb of light suddenly popped out from each of the three scrolls that he had written in the contract. One golden, one red, and one blue. Making it three orbs of light in total.

After coming out, the three orbs of light flew into Tian Yi’s head, engraving the contents of these three scrolls into his Soul.

Heavenly Guardian Dongmei was still in the exact same posture even after Tian Yi had finished with absorbing the scroll’s contents, and all she did was stare at him with trembling eyes, not daring to believe what she had just heard.

“Yixue, let’s go,” Tian Yi spoke to the also shocked Han Yixue.

“Eh?” Han Yixue swears her ears were just playing a joke on her because when Tian Yi had just spoken a moment ago, his voice was gentle and Heavenly. It was an addicting sound; one that she wouldn’t mind listening to over and over again nonstop for the rest of her life!

“….”

Han Yixue turned to look at Heavenly Guardian Dongmei whose face was clearly still frozen in time due to the shock she had just received.

“….”

Deciding that it would be better to just ignore her, she followed Tian Yi who had already begun walking away a few seconds ago.

“…….”

And only after Tian Yi’s shadow had completely disappeared did Heavenly Guardian Dongmei finally blink her eyes.

“Y-Young M-Master…?” she mumbled to herself as she turned to look at the direction where Tian Yi had gone.

And not even a second later, she jumped over the counter to run towards the direction Tian Yi had gone to, almost stumbling.

“….”

window.yaContextCb.push(()=>{Ya.adfoxCode.createAdaptive({ownerId:260971,containerId:’adfox_163284795066391493′,params:{p1:’cquve’,p2:’gxmp’}},[‘desktop’],{tabletWidth:830,phoneWidth:480,isAutoReloads:false})})

The remaining people there watched her leave in a hurry, and they had a feeling that she would not be back anytime soon.

“So how are we supposed to check out now?” someone asked.

“Why are you asking us? Do any of us look like we are from the Family of Heaven?”

“….”

The place turned silent.
