Chapter 274: Expanding Knowledge?
Having obtained a new cultivation technique, Lin Wu felt content. It had barely been two hours since he had left the courtyard and he had already scored a good item. He now wondered if something like this could be seen in other places too or not.
“Hehe… let’s check out the other places.” Lin Wu said to himself before leaving the public library.
There were many other places where Lin Wu could find books. There were hundreds of nobles that lived in the capital city who all had a collection of books. Though it was likely that they could be personal records and such.
Still, Lin Wu did not care for it and just went to get them. The only thing that was actually slowing him down was the formations that protected the residences of the nobles and aristocrats.
Lin Wu had to spend several minutes near each residence before the system was able to resolve the formation and make a virtual interface for it. The number of virtual interfaces in his list were now growing more and more.
It won’t be long before he would have more than a hundred virtual interfaces.
~Ding~
——
SUGGESTION: The host can sort the virtual interfaces into different categories as he deems fit.
——
“Oh? I can do this… nice! I’ll do this while waiting for it them.” Lin Wu said, feeling pleased.
He opened the list of virtual interfaces that were currently in the fifties. He started sorting them according to their importance and use. For example, the virtual interface that was used with the back door in Shirong’s Dantian was kept in the most important category.
Other important virtual interfaces such as the one for Taiji Celestial’s tomb and Shirong’s spatial ring were also kept in this category. As for the minor virtual interfaces such as the one for the different courtyards he was visiting would be kept in unimportant category.
Lin Wu also set a filter so that the system is able to automatically sort them according to his needs in the future. This would make things more convenient for him and make it much easier for Lin Wu to check things.
It was night by the time Lin Wu was done with half of the residences that belonged to the nobles and aristocrats.
“Damn, it will take me more time. Should just get the food first tomorrow if Shirong gets late in cultivating.” Lin Wu decided.
With this in mind, Lin Wu returned to Shirong’s ring and read the information that he had obtained. About ten hours had passed since he had obtained the Undaunted Sapphire Body Art and sixteen more hours were left till it would be fully analyzed.
Lin Wu was excited to see what the effect of sapphire meridians would be. And while he was reading, he felt a faint change in his body.
“Oh? I can cultivate the Immortal Sky Shaker Art again.” Lin Wu realized.
A day before he had to stop the process as the stress on his meridians and Dantian had gotten quite a lot. If he had continued even after that, he would have likely damaged them instead. This was not something he wanted. While he was confident that his Cellular Manipulation ability allowed him to regenerate injuries to his body. This specifically applied to the physical aspects body and not the spiritual ones like meridians and Dantian.
If he wanted to repair them, he would need specific healing pills or depend on the system to slowly repair them. But the thing is, even the system would slow down its speed if his meridians and Dantian were damaged.
Thus Lin Wu did not carelessly mess with them and took proper caution.
Morning arrived rather quickly, and Shirong woke up from his cultivation session.
~huu~
He let out a breath of foul Qi that traveled to the other end of the room, piercing a hole in the wooden wall. The foul Qi was corrosive and easily passed through the wall before dissipating in the outer garden.
“Hmm… so the effects of the technique are starting again.” Shirong muttered to himself, referencing the Vital Resurgence technique.
Lin Wu heard it too but did not pay any particular attention to it as the technique was currently useless to him. He then saw as Shirong stood up and went on to do his tasks. He changed his clothes and went to the Royal court. Today was the day when they were gonna get the very first reports about the bandits.
Another thing that was likely to happen was the banquet for Shirong. It was for a few things such as congratulating him for breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, for protecting the Ling Kingdom in times of great trouble which was the Spatial rift and also exposing a traitor amongst their ranks who was none other than Du Yang.
Shirong had done plenty of things that were worthy of being rewarded and even the banquet was not something that would be enough usually. Thankfully, Shirong was not someone to mine customs too much and was fine even if the banquet was small.
At the royal court, he simply spent the rest of the day hearing different reports while Lin Wu continued reading and expanding his scope of knowledge. He truly could spend months just reading all this and it still won’t be enough.
Lin Wu didn’t know whether the information was just too interesting for him or if his personality had been vastly changed in this world.
“Hmm… now that I think about it… where did I live in my past life?” Lin Wu questioned himself.
His eyes narrowed and he thorough about it. But the more he focused on it, the more he discovered things. That was not the only thing he had forgotten about himself. Vast tracts of his memories were now missing from his mind.
He didn’t remember how his personality was in his past life, either.
“System, why did this happen?” Lin Wu questioned, feeling a bit anxious.
But then he saw something that he had not seen for a while now.
~ERROR!~
