Chapter 160: Treasure Hunt

In the quiet valley, only the slight rustling sound of footsteps could be heard. Xiao Yuan pulled Xiao Yu and walked behind Hu Jia and Wu Hao. Xiao Yan and Xun'er followed closely behind. They walked through the grass in front of the pavilion and finally stepped onto the bluestone stairs that were bumpy due to the ravages of time.

The stone steps were covered with moss and were a bit slippery to step on, but fortunately this had no effect on Xiao Yuan and the others. After walking along the bluestone steps for a while, they came to the library and looked up at the ancient plaque. A feeling of desolation spread from the plaque and lingered in everyone's hearts for a long time.

"cough"

A hoarse cough suddenly sounded, awakening Xiao Yuan and the other six from their trance. They were all stunned and quickly turned their eyes away from the plaque.

"What a strange plaque, it actually has the power to attract people's attention. This library is really not simple!"

In fact, Xiao Yuan came out of that state in an instant, but he still couldn't help feeling quite amazed by it.

"Go in. The door will only be open for one hour. After one hour, no matter if you get what you need or not, you must come out."

On the left side of the six people, a man in a gray robe moved his sleeves as the breeze blew. Then the tightly closed door opened slowly with a creaking sound, revealing a dark passage inside.

The door opened wide, and an ancient and desolate atmosphere wafted towards them, causing Xiao Yuan and the others to quickly focus their minds and not dare to have any other thoughts.

Hu Jia, the leader, took a deep breath and then stepped into the library first. After that, Wu Hao hesitated for a moment and followed closely.

"Let's go."

Looking at Hu Jia and Wu Hao who were exploring the way ahead, Xiao Yuan turned around and said with a smile to Xiao Yu beside him and Xiao Yan and Xun'er behind him.

"Yeah!" Xiao Yan nodded, his eyes swept over the mysterious gray-robed figures on both sides inconspicuously, then he took Xun'er, followed Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yu, and walked into the library.

After all six people entered the library, the open door slowly closed with a creaking sound and was finally closed tightly.

Looking at the door that was closed again, Hu Qian's face showed a look of relief, and he said with a smile: "I hope these little guys can get what they like. It is a rare opportunity to be able to enter the library of Canaan College!"

"Those two little guys with strange fire are not simple!"

The gray-robed man who had previously told Xiao Yuan and the others the rules said this with deep meaning.

Hearing the sound of the door behind him closing tightly, Xiao Yuan's expression did not change, but he secretly tapped his fingertips and activated the Listening Wind Song, keeping an eye on the situation around him.

After a while, the group finally passed through the dark passage and entered a huge room.

There are nearly a dozen energy shields on the walls around the room. At this moment, these energy shields are slowly emitting light, illuminating the room like daylight.

In the room, Hu Jia and Wu Hao had already arrived. When they heard the footsteps, they looked back. After seeing Xiao Yuan and the other three, Hu Jia stepped forward and said with a smile, "Xun'er, when we enter the inner courtyard in the future, we must stick together. Although I have never been to the inner courtyard, my grandfather said that in order to get the best training conditions there, it depends on who has the stronger fist. So, if we spread out, we newcomers who have just entered will definitely be oppressed and bullied."

While speaking, Hu Jia's eyes would occasionally glance at Xiao Yuan. Obviously, although Xiao Yuan was quite ruthless, his handsome face that did not arouse any dislike and his lenient demeanor made Hu Jia treat Xiao Yuan in a special way.

"Haha, then the two of you can come with me. No one from the inner courtyard can be my opponent."

Xiao Yuan said with a smile upon hearing this.

It’s a bit early to say this now, but as long as Xiao Yuan is given some time to practice, he is confident enough to quickly become the number one student in the inner courtyard in a short period of time!
Even now, relying on the power of five Qi Palaces and a variety of high-level fighting skills, he is not inferior to some Douling-level opponents!

"Tsk, just brag!" Hu Jia curled her lips upon hearing that, and then said, "Many students in the inner courtyard are at the Douling level. Although you are indeed a little bit powerful and can deal with some of the inner courtyard students, if you say that the inner courtyard students are not your opponents, then you are underestimating them."

"Haha, just wait and see."

Xiao Yuan was too lazy to argue about who was right and just said something with a smile, then looked around.

This huge room is the end of the library, but there is nothing inside except the energy shield on the wall.

"Don't look anymore. There seems to be no other place here. Just those strange energy shields. Are they asking us to go in?" Seeing Xiao Yuan's eyes scanning around, Hu Jia curled her lips and spoke.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the energy shield.

"laugh!"

Under the effect of Tingfengyin, the sound of breaking wind, which was so subtle that it was almost imperceptible, was immediately fed back to Xiao Yuan's perception.

The next moment, his figure flashed, and he appeared directly in front of an energy shield somewhere. He bent his fingers into claws and grabbed the purple light flying out of it in his hands.

"careful!"

It was not until this time that Xiao Yu's concerned reminder finally came.

"Advanced Xuan-level martial arts technique, the Purple Thunder Technique?" Holding the purple scroll, Xiao Yuan tried it with his palm and found that it passed through the energy layer without any hindrance. Looking at the words drawn on the surface of the scroll, he couldn't help but read it out softly.

"Martial arts?" Hearing Xiao Yuan's voice, the other five people were stunned, and then they suddenly understood. It turned out that this so-called martial arts fighting skills were automatically spit out from these energy shields!
When Xiao Yan and the others were suddenly aware of the situation, a large number of breaking wind sounds were heard again. Then, energy balls of different colors and shapes spewed out from the energy shield in an overwhelming manner, and then shuttled through the huge room, bringing up bursts of breaking wind sounds.

Seeing those energy balls, each with a different momentum, everyone used their own methods to obtain the treasures in the energy balls.

Xiao Yan, who was not far away, first opened a Tianfei Fruit. This thing is the main ingredient of the Douling Pill. Just by taking it directly, it can directly increase the strength of a Douling level warrior by one star. And if it is used to refine the Douling Pill, then the medicinal effect of this thing can be maximized, and it can directly increase the strength of a Douwang warrior by one star.

This kind of thing has been sold at a sky-high price in the outside world, but now one has appeared in the library of Canaan College!
But unfortunately, he can't use it for now!

After throwing it away with some helplessness, Xiao Yan continued to look for what he needed.

And Xiao Yuan had thrown the Purple Thunder Art back early in the morning. Although the advanced Xuan-level skills were also good, it would be too embarrassing for him to come to the library and only take one Xuan-level skill!
On the other side, Xiao Yu was holding a blue scroll with a dazed look on his face.

"Sister Xiao Yu, what's wrong with you?"

When Xiao Yuan saw this scene, he hurried to Xiao Yu and asked in confusion.

"Xiao Yuan, am I dreaming?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yu turned his head with a slightly dazed expression and looked at Xiao Yuan, then lowered his head to look at the azure scroll he was holding, and spoke in a vague voice.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan blinked, then looked at the scroll in Xiao Yu's hand. After his soul perception scanned it, he was also surprised.

Low-level earth-level technique, clear water condenses into waves.
"It's really good stuff."

Xiao Yuan scratched his head, then smiled and talked to Xiao Yu.

"It just bumped right into my arms! I think it must be perfect for me!"

When Xiao Yu saw Xiao Yuan's confirmation, she jumped on the spot with excitement, then threw herself into Xiao Yuan's arms and said excitedly.

"Well, it really suits you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan smiled and patted Xiao Yu on the back. With the Earth-level technique, Xiao Yu's future cultivation would be easier, which was undoubtedly a good thing.

"Congratulations, Sister Xiao Yu!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan and Xun'er on the side immediately realized that Xiao Yu must have obtained something that made her satisfied, so they turned around and congratulated her.

Hu Jia on the side pouted, and the scent of lemon emanated from her whole body.

She hasn't found the right baby yet!
A moment later, Xiao Yan also had a harvest. He gave Xun'er a volume of intermediate earth-level fire-attributed martial arts technique: Nine-Layered Phoenix Fire Art.

Xun'er originally wanted to let Xiao Yan use it himself, but Xiao Yan had the Burning Technique, so naturally he couldn't use any other techniques, so in the end he gave the technique to Xun'er.

Hu Jia and Wu Hao were so jealous watching from the side. Why are all the people in the Xiao family so lucky?
Especially when he saw that Xiao Yan didn't even want this technique and gave it directly to Xun'er, he felt even more jealous.

No, buddy, can you give me the Earth-level skills just like that?

This is not Chinese cabbage!
Damn love brain!

After feeling sour in their hearts for a while, Hu Jia and Wu Hao continued to look for the right baby for themselves with gloomy faces.

Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan, who had not yet obtained their desired items, gathered together.

"Brother, have you discovered that those energy balls with large fluctuations contain good things!"

Xiao Yan whispered.

"Well, I just noticed that there are more good things coming out of the energy shields in the northwest, east, and south. You keep an eye on the northwest, and I'll keep an eye on the east and south to see if we can find a suitable martial arts technique!"

Xiao Yuan also nodded and spoke softly.

After saying that, the two of them unexpectedly sat down on the ground at the same time, slowly closed their eyes, and released two powerful soul perception powers, covering the entire room.

Xun'er and Xiao Yu did not have such excellent soul perception, so they could only rely on feeling to grab things. However, the chance of getting good things this way was too low. Even after catching more than a dozen light balls, the two women did not find a suitable thing.

Hu Jia and Wu Hao on the side, after making tremendous efforts, both got something that was barely satisfactory and was successfully taken out of the ball of light.

What Hu Jia got was a purple pill of unknown function. As for Wu Hao, it seemed that he got a scroll of fighting skills, but after getting that thing, he did not reveal the level of the fighting skills at all. Therefore, except for himself, the others did not know the function of the scroll of fighting skills he got. But from a vague sense, it was probably either a ground-level fighting skill or the top level of the advanced Xuan-level fighting skills.

At this time, there were only ten minutes left before the one-hour deadline to enter the library. Xiao Yan finally took down a scarlet scroll after one attempt.

Low-level earth-level fighting skill, fire-resistant armor.

"Good stuff, just right for me!"

After Xiao Yan slightly sensed the effect of the fighting skills, he tossed the scroll with a smile and reported the good news to Xun'er and Xiao Yu.

As for Xiao Yuan, he was still sensing at this moment, so Xiao Yan did not go forward to disturb him. After putting the fighting skills back into the ring, he continued to release his perception to help Xiao Yuan find it.

"What on earth is Brother Xiao Yuan looking for? I saw a scroll of ice-attributed skills just now, and the level should be quite high, but he still didn't make a move."

Xun'er came close to Xiao Yu and asked in confusion.

"I don't know. He should have his own considerations. If that doesn't work out, I'll just give him my technique to practice. Although it's a water-attributed technique, his ice-attributed technique should be able to be used with some skill."

Xiao Yu shook his head and then spoke calmly.

"Zi!"

At this moment, Xiao Yuan heard the sound of flashing electric arcs.

"Hmm? This fluctuation?"

Xiao Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the figure that floated out like flying catkins. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the energy shield in the east direction, looking over with eyes as sharp as an eagle.

The next moment, a silver light ball flashing with black lightning arcs shot out from it rapidly. Even with Xiao Yuan's reaction speed, he was unable to catch it.

What a fast speed! Great stuff!

Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up, and after thinking for a while, he made a decisive decision. With the strength of a four-star master, he performed the Three Mysterious Changes of Skyfire. The purple cloud wings behind him also popped out. In the originally closed room, a breeze blew. Xiao Yuan flapped the wings behind him and disappeared on the spot.

"Fighting Qi turns into wings!?"

When Hu Jia and Wu Hao saw this scene and felt Xiao Yuan's terrifying aura that was comparable to that of a Dou Ling master, they were horrified and confused.

When Xiao Yan and the others saw that Xiao Yuan was actually using such serious means to seize the ball of light, they immediately understood that the things in the ball of light were probably not simple!
laugh!
The explosive speed allowed Xiao Yuan to catch the silver ball of light in his hand in the next moment!

However, unexpectedly, the black lightning arc on the silver light ball suddenly exploded after a brief contraction and flash, and an explosion with a taste of destruction swept across, and Xiao Yuan, who was holding the light ball, was the first to bear the brunt!

"Xiao Yuan!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yu's face was filled with horror and she wanted to pounce over immediately. Fortunately, Xun'er grabbed her and led her back!
Xiao Yan knew Xiao Yuan's strength, so he naturally didn't think that Xiao Yuan would be in any danger. However, he couldn't help but look worried. Unfortunately, Yao Lao didn't say anything. At this moment, Xiao Yan's own perception was unable to detect the information of the center of the explosion.

　Emmm, if I write quickly, there should be another chapter soon.
