The Six Immortals Chapter 135

Chapter 135 – Entry into the Library

Soon after, Yu Qing Yang gave Bi Fan some more Dan pellets. Amongst these were healing Dan, and Dan pertaining to various other layers of practice realms.

But the most important thing he gave Bi Fan was a sky blue colored suit. This sky blue clothing was a high grade armor, but would when worn on top, would only appear as casual clothing; brilliant casual clothing.

The sky blue suit was a rare and valuable treasure, and was worth a lot more than the Dragon-scale sword, which he had received earlier.

Bi Fan hesitated at first, since he didn’t feel at ease to accept such a valuable item.

Ling Xin Ya said: “Bi Fan, you’re going to be in the focus here at the Quinyang Sect, and we will try to nurture your talents as best as we can. The Master of the Sect is taking your practice very seriously, and this is a well-intended gift from the Sect. You will need it during the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon tournament, and we hope that it will help you bringing glory to our Sect.”

“Thank you, Master of the Sect!” Bi Fan gratefully accepted the gifts, and put them away in his storage.

“Bi Fan, Yan Yu Si will guide you to the Library, but, you only have two days to practice and learn the skills.” Yu Qing Yang smiled.

Yu Qing Yang was a very easy-going character, especially when considered that he was the head of a Sect.

“Yes, I will make the best of this time.” Bi Fan and Yan Yu Si exited the hall together.

Along the way, Bi Fan thought to himself: “It seems like the head of the Sect could read my heart; he’s asked Yan Yu Si to personally lead me to the Library. This is working out so well for me.”

Yan Yu Si was walking ahead of him, and her tall and perfect body was an absolute feast for Bi Fan’s eyes.

Even though Bi Fan didn’t have the courage to make a confession, he’d still pilfer a look or two.

Yan Yu Si abruptly said: “Bi Fan, father has allowed you to enter the Library for two full days, even when the core disciples are only allowed to enter the Library for one day, once a year, during which time, they must finish copying one book, after which they are asked to leave. Father has made a big exception for you, and you must repay him with your performance in the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon Tournament.”

“I know Miss Yan Yu Si; I will spare no effort in the tournament, and I won’t allow the Wu Ji Sect to finish at the top in all the three lists of the Jiu Yu City.” Bi Fan replied in a very serious tone. (There was a mention about three ‘lists’ (tournaments) about a hundred chapters ago. We know two of them now, but the third hasn’t been mentioned yet.)

“Well, this time, I will also be fighting for top spot in the Jiu Yu Imperial List, and I’ve got a lot of pressure, since I’ll have to face Wu Ji Sect’s Xuan Yuan Po again.” Yan Yu Si’s face suddenly turned cold; it appeared as if her face was frost with fear.

“Xuan Yuan Po is considered a genius, but I’ll beat him sooner or later.” The look on Yan Yu Si’s face made Bi Fan very angry, and he’d already made his decision. (Xuan Yuan Po’s gender isn’t clear at the moment, so we’ll just consider the same to be a man.)

Bi Fan was so wildly attracted to Yan Yu Si, that no matter who you are, if you’re causing trouble for Yan Yu Si, then you’re already a mortal enemy of Bi Fan’s.

The Quinyang Library, and a.r.s.enal, was a single unit, and were located at the peak of the establishment. The region was forbidden to everyone in the Sect, and was watched by a ‘Spirit’ realm elder. Any man, who tried to enter the Quinyang Sect Library without Yu Qing Yang’s permission, would find themselves under siege.

Once outside the Library, Yan Yu Si flashed the warrant which Yu Qing Yang had issued, and the two of them were allowed to enter.

Inside the a.r.s.enal was an old, white and gray haired, man; it was difficult to tell his real age. He appeared sick, and was breathing very uneasy.

“Grandpa Ling, are you okay?” Yan Yu Si turned into a little girl, the moment she appeared in front of the old man, and asked his health in a very playful tone.

“Oh, little Yan Yu Si. You came back, huh, but you didn’t come to see me?” The old man’s wrinkle studded face creased a smile, exposing his perfectly intact rows of teeth.

Since the Library was under his care, his strength and history must not be weak.

Bi Fan sized up the old man, but didn’t spot any energy fluctuations, and could only a.s.sess him to an old man, who rather seemed to dying of an illness, as opposed to an expert with an enormous hidden energy.

Bi Fan simply couldn’t believe that this, muddy-eyed, old man, was an expert; the man’s vision seemed too blurred to be any good.

“Either he’s just an old, ordinary, man, or else, he has too much hidden strength inside his body.” Bi Fan thought to himself.

“Who is this little guy? He must be someone, now, that he’s being led to the Library by Yan Yu Si personally.” The old man enquired.

Yan Yu Si explained: “Grandpa Ling, let me introduce you, he’s Bi Fan. Bi Fan is the winner of this year’s Neimen Disciple’s tournament, and I’ve never seen anyone…”

Yan Yu Si looked at Bi Fan, while Grandpa Ling sized him up, and she winked at him. However, Bi Fan simply didn’t understand her meaning, which is why he couldn’t do whatever it is she desired him to.

“Boy offers his respect to Grandpa Ling!” Bi Fan respectfully offered his salutation.

The old man’s glanced over at Bi Fan again, but his face showed no emotions, as he just nodded back in reply.

Bi Fan always offered his respects to people, no matter their age, since it was general etiquette.

But anyway, he could feel that the old man wasn’t as plain as he appeared, which is why he being even more courteous than usual.

“Grandpa Ling, my father has allowed Bi Fan to study in the Library for two days, so he can prepare of the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon tournament.” Yan Yu Si informed the old man.

“Yes, you do as you please; I’m getting to old now, and I need to take a break, so do not bother me.” The old man replied.

The old man went back to one corner of the Library, and sat on his chair, and dozed off.

“Bi Fan, you look around; I will not bother you. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, then you can just ask me, I’m very familiar with the Library.” Yan Yu Si said with a smile.

“Thank you!” Bi Fan simply couldn’t wait now, and started walking around the shelves to select a book.

The Quinayng Library only had a dozen of, large and small, bookshelves. Some shelves were filled with books pertaining to martial skills, while the others contained books regarding other aspects of training, like Alchemy, weapons refining, herbs, and the practical experiences of the previous generation martial artists.

Amongst these, a large number of books spoke of personal experiences of the Sect’s martial artists, including the experiences of the Sect’s Core disciples, and the elders. Some even included the skills which these men had acquired over their adventures, and were mostly present to guide and inspire the younger generation.

Bi Fan quickly walked around the Library, and then returned to front of the Library, picked up one book, and started to read it carefully.

As for Yan Yu Si, she was focusing her attention on the books pertaining to the experiences of others, in the hope of finding some inspiration.

Bi Fan wasn’t worried about anything at the moment, and once he had selected a book, he causally sat down on the floor, crossed his legs, and slowly started reading it.

Bi Fan had become a very quick reader, and on top of that, owing to memory, wouldn’t forget the contents on the book either. Naturally, Bi Fan wanted to use this opportunity to devour as much of the Quinyang Library’s knowledge as possible.

There were so many books in the Library, that it wouldn’t be possible for him to practice all these skills, but they were sure to help him in creating him own style one day.

Even though the Quinyang Sect’s book collection wasn’t very big, it was still quite valuable. There were hundreds of books about martial skills, some of which spoke of the Sect’s trademark skills, while some even seemed as if they had been looted from other Sects.

Regardless of which Sect’s technique the Book spoke off, Bi Fan would naturally want to read it.

The first book which Bi Fan had picked up was named ‘The Jiu chain s.n.a.t.c.her gang’, and was based on a man named Zhang Sheng. Zhang Sheng made a name for himself as a robber, and was later kicked out of the Quinyang Sect, along with his gang of thieves, but his known experiences had been recorded in this book.

Most of the book talked about their adventures, and mostly in a comic way, but Bi Fan was quite interested in the book since it also spoke about the various methods of using a knife blade in combat.

Bi Fan had no intention of using a knife blade, nor did he intend to learn the skill. He was only reading the book, since he felt that it would help in improving ‘The Immortal Finger’ technique’s power output.

Therefore, Bi Fan was reading the book very seriously, and given his memory, and reading speed, he was able to go through the contents of the book very quickly.

Even though it was a very thick book, he was able to finish it in about an hour, and had even successfully memorized its contents.

“Let’s continue with more.” Bi Fan lazily stretched his body, as he smiled.

Bi Fan returned the ‘The Jiu chain s.n.a.t.c.her gang’ book to its shelf, and proceeded to pick his next selection.
