Li Mo's two fingers carried a faint origin power as they neared the jade slip's golden light. He sensed someone approaching.
The golden light showed a hint of resistance at first, but when Li Mo's finger touched it, the golden light froze.
The golden light shuddered, then with a hum, it faded.
However, there was a limit to how long this golden light could last. After a while, it would regenerate.
Li Mo wasn't interested in this Shadowless Kick cultivation method.
But Li Mo put on an act as he recorded the Shadowless Kick's words into his own jade slip.
"Humph."
While Li Mo was recording, Jin Batian came before him and taunted him.
"You took so long and only got one cultivation method?
I've already obtained a two-step cultivation method. "
Jin Batian waved the jade slip in his hand and spoke in a proud tone.
Jin Batian might not be as strong as Li Mo and Li Jianxin, but he was the undisputed first place in the past few years.
There were a few who had the strength to get the second floor cultivation method, and Jin Batian was one of them.
So the first floor cultivation method wasn't hard for them, as long as they had the same attribute.
However, if it was the young man who had obtained the fist technique earlier, it would be a different story.
Just as Jin Batian finished speaking, Li Mo finished recording the Shadowless Kick.
Then Li Mo turned to Jin Batian with a mocking smile.
"Got two cultivation methods?
Isn't that amazing? "
"You!"
'I clearly have more cultivation methods than Li Mo. How come I'm not as good as him?'
Jin Batian raged.
"Not amazing!
But just a bit better than you. "
"Interesting."
Li Mo shook his head, chuckling as if he heard the funniest joke in the world.
"What are you laughing at?"
He came to mock Li Mo, but now he saw Li Mo's face.
Jin Batian lost all sense of superiority and asked angrily.
"Nothing, I'm just laughing at your ignorance."
Li Mo spoke contemptuously, not giving Jin Batian a chance to react.
Li Mo walked along the bookshelf. Along the way, every cultivation method Li Mo's fingertips touched.
No matter the attribute, the golden light on the jade slip buzzed and shattered.
"This …"
Jin Batian was struck by lightning seeing how easily Li Mo unlocked the cultivation method step by step.
What the hell, he had spent a lot of effort to obtain two cultivation techniques, and that was enough for him to be proud of.
But in front of Li Mo, he didn't have much time to be proud. Li Mo walked like he was taking a stroll, opening one cultivation method after another.
"This guy."
Li Mo's actions were the most eye-catching in the library, so everyone turned to look at him.
Kong Lin 'er smiled sweetly, and the curiosity in her eyes intensified.
Inadvertently, there was a hint of charm in her smile. It was so sweet.
The young man who received the fist art earlier was stunned when he saw Kong Lin 'er's smile. His eyes were in a daze.
Li Jianxin frowned at Li Mo's action.
Since Li Jianxin dared to call himself the strongest expert in the 81 villages of the Jiuli Tribe, he naturally had his own pride.
But looking down at the jade slip in his hand, Li Jianxin knew that there were only five sword techniques here.
Li Mo, on the other hand, didn't.
He had already gotten several times that number.
Even the persevering Li Jianxin couldn't help but feel dispirited when faced with a freak like Li Mo.
Even Ying Yan, who always looked down on Li Mo, frowned in shock.
"Leg art, movement art, fist art, spear art, palm art, sword art …
Is this guy proficient in all of them? "
As the saying goes, biting off more than one can chew. Anyone could learn many things.
But to be able to open the golden light on the jade slip meant that one had learned something in these fields.
'So many fields have such deep knowledge?'
Ying Yan was starting to wonder if Li Mo's twenty something year old skin hid a centuries-old monster.
"Interesting."
The proud and arrogant Elder Council's Second Elder, Dongfang Yibai's eyes were drawn to Li Mo's figure.
Dongfang Yibai's lips curled into a faint smile.
"What's your name?"
Because Dongfang Yibai was admiring the painting, no one dared to make a ruckus.
Even Jin Batian's taunts towards Li Mo were hushed. Therefore, Dongfang Yibai's words reached Li Mo's ears without the use of his bloodline power.
Li Mo bowed.
"Junior is Li Mo from Fallen Mountain Camp."
Li Mo's voice was low, but Dongfang Yibai's cultivation was enough to hear.
"Fallen Mountain Camp?"
Dongfang Yibai was astonished at Li Mo's words.
Although Dongfang Yibai was immersed in painting every day, he knew how weak a small Fallen Mountain Camp that didn't even have an Earth Immortal was.
(Meng Lin entered the early Earth Immortal stage, but Dongfang Yibai didn't know.)
Moreover, Fallen Mountain Camp's ranking among the 81 camps wasn't high, so Dongfang Yibai didn't expect it.
This talented young man before him came from the puny Fallen Mountain Camp.
"Record down the cultivation method you've obtained, then go to the second floor of the library and try it out."
Dongfang Yibai took the initiative. Jin Batian and the rest were strong enough to get a cultivation method on the second floor.
But Dongfang Yibai only mentioned it to Li Mo. It was clear he was interested in Li Mo.
'How many cultivation methods can I get on the second floor?'
"Thank you, senior.
But there's no need to record it.
Junior will go to the second floor of the library now. "
Li Mo bowed and went to the second floor.
Li Mo had no interest in the first floor's cultivation method.
If not for Jin Batian's bullying, Li Mo wouldn't have done it.
Li Jianxin's eyes flashed with fighting spirit as he watched Li Mo's back.
Li Jianxin followed suit, no longer lingering on the first floor.
Although the techniques on the first floor of the library were much stronger than the techniques of the Falling Hill Stronghold,
But when compared to the Immemorial Mountain Camp's cultivation method, it was about the same.
Thus, Li Jianxin's heart wasn't here.
If not for Li Mo, Li Jianxin would have been the number one in the elder council's selection.
The second floor's cultivation method wouldn't be hard for Li Jianxin.
"Damn it!"
Jin Batian clenched his fists in anger.
"So what if you're talented enough to get so many cultivation methods?
The Library's cultivation methods are dependent on strength. I refuse to believe an early Golden Core brat like you can get more cultivation methods than me on the second floor! "
Jin Batian muttered unwillingly. Jin Batian clenched his teeth and went to the second floor.
Kong Lin 'er smiled sweetly, watching Li Mo's back for a while before going to the second floor.
Following them were the three people from Coiling Dragon Mountain Stronghold. These three people were not weak. Of course, they also wanted to go to the second floor of the library to give it a try.
As for the Immemorial Mountain Camp's Li Bingshuang and the other man and woman, they stayed on the first floor.
Of course, they also wanted to go to the second floor of the library to take a look, but their cultivation was limited.
So they could only take a few cultivation methods from the first floor before going to the second floor.
If they rashly entered the second floor now, it would be a huge loss if they didn't get anything by the end of the day.
"This year's youngsters … aren't bad."
Looking at the backs of the youths, Dongfang Yibai said indifferently. Then, he continued to admire the paintings.
Dongfang Yibai picked up his brush and added a few more steps to the bees on the scroll. The bees actually flew out of the scroll again.
Hearing Dongfang Yibai's praise, Ying Yan was shocked.
Ying Yan chuckled and spoke with respect.
"Yes, there are many good seedlings among them.
Especially the Immemorial Mountain Camp's young leader, Li Jianxin. He is so talented that the Grand Elder is interested in taking him in as a disciple. "
"Oh, to catch the eye of that old geezer, Yu Xiao. Not bad, not bad."
Dongfang Yibai, who was busy playing with the bees, said in an indifferent tone.
"Li Mo!
Do you dare to bet with me? "
On the second floor of the library, Jin Batian couldn't wait to stop Li Mo.
"Bet on what?"
Li Mo's eyes shone at the mention of a bet, as if he was looking at a walking storage bag.
It couldn't be helped, Li Mo was too poor.
He just lacked spirit stones.
Jin Batian's anger flared at Li Mo's eyes.
Jin Batian pointed to the rows of bookshelves on the second floor of the library and said.
"Let's see who has more cultivation methods!
What do you think? "
Jin Batian was confident that his late-stage Golden Core cultivation level was stable and stable.
His spiritual qi was far thicker than Li Mo's. And the second floor's cultivation methods didn't just depend on one's affinity, but also how thick one's spiritual qi was.
If one's spiritual qi wasn't thick enough, they wouldn't get a cultivation method.
"What's the wager?"
Li Mo raised an eyebrow and looked at Jin Batian.
'You don't believe me when I say you're a god of fortune. Of all the things you could've competed with me, you just had to compete with this. Do you believe me when I say I can make you go bankrupt?'
"Twenty thousand low grade spirit stones!"
Jin Batian gnashed his teeth.
Meng Lin gave Li Mo twenty thousand spirit stones. Because Meng Lin hadn't been in the village for many years, this was all he had.
And Jin Batian had been nurtured by King Kong all these years, so he had a lot of spirit stones.
Li Mo's heart skipped a beat at Jin Batian's words.
"This Jin Batian sure is rich and overbearing."
Li Mo didn't show it despite his happiness.
On the contrary, he spoke with disdain.
"You're the grand young master of the Golden Mountain Village, and yet you're betting on this?"
'Won't I make you bleed more if you bet on this?'
'Am I still Li Mo?'
"How much do you want?"
Jin Batian clenched his fists.
If they weren't in the library, Li Mo's disdain would've made Jin Batian beat him up.
He might not have beaten Li Mo before, but he couldn't let his pride be sullied before a genius!
