Chapter 328: The Sixth Floor of Tongtian Tower
? Light spots all over the sky emerged, like thousands of fireflies flying out of the night, and then flew down in three directions. On the side of Ye Zan and the others, on the side of the four people of the mysterious force, and on the side of the people of the evil way, there were brilliant light spots that kept flickering and flying down.
However, it was obvious that most of the light spots fell on Ye Zan and the others. On the side of the demonic people, less than one percent of the total amount of dots of light flew past. As for the four people from the mysterious force, it can be said that there are very few of them, and the light spots that fly past can be counted.
Obviously, the allocation of these light spots is related to the achievements of everyone here.
Although the record of passing the level only depends on the sum of all the people, but everyone's performance determines their final harvest. Regarding this point, no matter if they knew about it in advance, or simply guessed it according to common sense, in fact, everyone is very clear in their hearts.
However, such a huge disparity still exceeded everyone's expectations.
Although Ye Zan's side can be said to have the largest number of people among the three parties, but Ye Zan's own light points are still the majority among the people on this side. Fortunately, Ye Zan did not ignore his other companions as he raised his status all the way, and the companions also played a very important role in this process. Therefore, the light points obtained by other people are not as pitiful as the other two parties.
Those light spots, like snowflakes, disappeared in a blink of an eye after falling on the person's body. Ye Zan could clearly feel that the little spots of light falling on his body turned into traces of strange power and merged into his body. And under the influence of that strange power, his body also changed accordingly, as if every cell was being tempered.
At the same time, that trace of strange power is not only tempering the body, Ye Zan also feels that his soul is becoming more pure and tough under the tempering of that power.
Ascetics often say: the body is like a boat, but the soul is the person in the boat. Whether the boat of the physical body is strong or not determines how strong the wind and waves can be withstood on the way of cultivating the Tao. And Shenhun, the man in the boat, decides the direction of the voyage, and also decides how to better steer the boat and ride the waves.
The so-called determination of the direction of sailing refers to the understanding of the Dao. Many times, ascetics feel that there is such a layer of tulle between themselves and the Dao, but they cannot be lifted or pierced. However, when he walked in that direction for a long time, even to the point where he could not turn back, he realized that he had already gone in the wrong direction.
And the purer the soul, the easier it is to touch the Dao, which means that it is less likely to go in the wrong direction.
What Ye Zan got was the biggest part of all the rewards, and he could even feel it clearly, as if the dust and impurities inside and outside the soul,
Washed away layer by layer by that strange force. It was as if there was a mirror that was constantly being polished, and the images reflected in it were gradually becoming clearer.
As for the others, there are not many spots of light integrated into them, perhaps not as obvious as Ye Zan. But as long as there is a little change, it can actually be regarded as a big opportunity for everyone.
On the other side of the magic path, the falling light spots are actually not too rare. After all, in the camp on that side, they have also achieved some records, and the records will not be affected by different camps.
However, the members of Mo Dao, after feeling the changes in their bodies and spirits, and knowing what a heaven-defying chance this reward is, looked at Ye Zan with much more complicated expressions.
It can be said that among the victories that Ye Zan has obtained, many of them were obtained only through tip-offs from Mo Dao. For example, to see through some schemes, capture some generals, etc., Ye Zan must have spent a lot of effort if the people from Mo Dao hadn't tipped off the news.
Those people in Mo Dao originally only thought that on the one hand, they could collect their records as soon as possible, and on the other hand, it would be a good idea to sell Ye Zan. At present, they still regard the four people from the mysterious force as their main threat, especially after hearing from Ye Zan that there are nine Yuanying ancestors outside the tower.
Of course, those people from Mo Dao also thought about getting rid of those four people. However, this is also the reason why those four people have the least record.
The four members of the mysterious force knew that the members of the Devil Dao were going to deal with them, so they hardly ever went to the battlefield because of their status as the general's personal soldiers. If you have never been on the battlefield, how could you have a record? The only record that you have is probably the result of mentioning something to the general when you plotted against Ye Zan and others.
Moreover, in fact, even if there were no members of the Demonic Dao, the four members of the mysterious force would not be able to achieve much success. After all, the physical strength of their parallel Yuanying ancestors is probably at the level of Qi refining and foundation building, not much stronger than those mortal soldiers. If they were to go to the battlefield and replaced by Ye Zan and others as the original cannon fodder, the four of them would have died in the first battle long ago.
Therefore, even though they may know more than the people from the Demonic Dao, these four people from the mysterious force hid beside the general and did not go out at all. Even Ye Zan has nothing to do with these four people, otherwise he would have sold these four people to the Mo Dao people long ago.
Finally, after a burst of light rain, the frozen time seemed to start flowing again. The entire battlefield went from being silent to a scene of screaming and killing in an instant.
However, in the ears of Ye Zan and the others, the shout of killing gradually faded away, and everything around them also began to become blurred and distorted. When the surroundings became clear again, Ye Zan and the others found that they were no longer on the cruel and terrifying battlefield, but were standing in a very wide hall.
This hall is obviously not the fifth floor of the tower. There are a large number of bookshelves around it, and all kinds of books are piled up on it. Those scrolls, let alone the contents, are made of various materials, including bamboo slips and silk cloth, paper and animal skin, which make people dazzled.
Not far from Ye Zan and the others, those people from the Demon Dao and the four people from the mysterious force also appeared in the hall at the same time. Those two groups were more experienced than Ye Zan's side, and immediately started walking towards the bookshelves, flipping through the scrolls on them without any hesitation.
Ye Zan didn't waste time, and immediately said to everyone: "This should be the sixth floor of the tower, but I don't know what the test is, but it should be related to those scrolls, so let's not stand around stupidly."
Although, people from the magic way and the mysterious forces didn't seem to intend to tell Ye Zan what the test was going to be. However, it is always right to take pictures of cats and tigers. Whatever they do, Ye Zan should do the same.
Moreover, Ye Zan was indeed very curious about those scrolls, wanting to see what was written on them. Of course, what is certain is that those scrolls will not be the inheritance of Taoism of Yu Qingzong. No matter how generous Taoist Xuanqing was, he would not have displayed the inheritance of the sect for others to watch.
After hearing Ye Zan's words, the people here also dispersed immediately, walked towards the bookshelves, and flipped through the scrolls on them. Ye Zan himself also came to a bookshelf, took a roll of bamboo slips, and slowly unfolded them.
He was still a little worried at first, after all, no one has been here for nearly ten thousand years, whether these books will be the same as those in the collection of Taoist Baiji, and they will be turned into ashes as soon as they are touched. However, it turned out that he was thinking too much, and he underestimated the majestic Immortal Dao Patriarch too much. Those scrolls have not been eroded by the years, and they are all well preserved.
The volumes in this hall, roughly speaking, probably have hundreds of thousands of volumes. If you read through such volumes, it would be a huge project to read them all.
However, although Ye Zan didn't know what the test was going to be, he also knew that it was impossible for people to read books leisurely. Therefore, he simply used the old method to directly assist the chip in image acquisition and recording, without caring about the content of the book at all.
In this way, Ye Zan's browsing speed is scary, and it is not comparable to ten lines at a glance. Let’s talk about a roll of paper-bound thread-bound books. Ye Zan flipped through the pages like he was fanning the wind, flipping through the pages with his fingers, and all the content had already been captured by the auxiliary chip.
Ye Zan flipped through the book like this, but when he flipped through it, he didn't know the content at all. Only after sorting out the auxiliary chip, and then importing it into the storage memory area of the brain, and then flipping through it in the brain, can I know what the contents of the book are.
Seeing Ye Zan's actions, not to mention people from the magic way and mysterious forces, even everyone on Ye Zan's own side found it difficult to understand. It's just that although those books are not inherited from Taoism, they must be quite valuable if they can be collected here by Taoist Xuanqing. Even Lin Mumu, who was so unrestrained, was attracted by the contents of the book, and didn't bother to ask what Ye Zan was doing.
Ye Zan was also happy to be quiet, he didn't need to explain to others, he flipped through the book so quickly by himself, nearly a hundred volumes of books on one shelf were flipped through in a blink of an eye.
What is the test for this level?
Three days later, Ye Zan almost read all the books, and the test of this level finally appeared.
Seeing the test of this level, Ye Zan felt a little dumbfounded, because this level was actually a literary test.
In various sects, the disciples of the inner and outer sects often have to take literary examinations on a regular basis, and they don't have to be caught and killed all day long. The content of the literary examination is basically some common sense questions in Taoism, the purpose is to let disciples understand the world of Taoism, as well as understanding of exercises and so on.
Like Dan Dingzong, a sect that inherits the way of alchemy, a lot of relevant knowledge is also tested in the literary examination. For example, the identification of herbal medicine, the efficacy of herbal medicine, and the knowledge of alchemy, etc. There is also the Tianfu sect, which also needs to test the knowledge about talismans, the mastery of talisman patterns, the skills of drawing talismans, and so on.
Taoists don't want to fight and kill all day long. Since Taoism is a civilized system, it must have a lot of basic theoretical knowledge. As a cultivator, if you just talk about cultivation and don't care about other knowledge related to cultivation, I am afraid that no matter how high your cultivation is, it will be difficult to move an inch in this world in the future. What's more, without that knowledge, he may not be able to cultivate to such a high level.
Of course, here, there are no exam papers, and no one will take the exam papers to answer the questions. After all, those who can enter here are at least at the level of Jindan Grandmaster. The so-called master is someone who can establish a sect and establish a sect. As for the basic knowledge of Taoism, he must have already mastered the basics.
In the very center of the hall, a huge light curtain appeared, and a large number of problems appeared on it, rolling like a waterfall. What the entrants have to do is to choose the question they want to answer from the top, and get points depending on whether the answer is correct or not.
In other words, the entrant does not necessarily need to answer all the questions about scrolling on the light curtain. They only need to answer the questions they can answer to earn points.
To be honest, at this time, Ye Zan thought of some knowledge entertainment programs in the technological world. This Daoist Xuanqing should not have traveled from the world of science and technology. After all, people in the world of science and technology were still drinking blood 10,000 years ago. However, many things can be regarded as the same goal by different routes, or the heroes see the same thing?
In short, this scene gave Ye Zan a sense of familiarity, but he was not as overwhelmed as the others on his side.
As for the people from the Demonic Way and the four people from the mysterious force, they must have some understanding of this situation, so they are all standing in front of the light curtain, looking for questions that they can answer. From this, it is certain that the problem of continuous scrolling on the light curtain is probably related to the contents of the surrounding books.
Ye Zan smiled faintly, came to the light curtain, and raised his eyes to look at the light curtain. The problem of rolling like a waterfall will not cause any trouble to ascetics, let alone a person like him who has cheats.
Ye Zan didn't immediately choose what question to answer, but directly used the auxiliary chip to record all the questions on the light curtain. Then, according to the question, the auxiliary chip will quickly find a matching answer from the information collected before, and then transmit these to Ye Zan.
After a while, the four people from the magic way and the mysterious force have already started to answer a few questions. And Ye Zan didn't want to waste any more time, and instantly turned into a fake academic master, and began to quickly answer the questions on the light screen.
This answer to the question is not spoken with the mouth, nor is it written with the pen, but with the spiritual sense to touch the light curtain. This time, Ye Zan is even more trouble-free. He doesn't even need to open his mouth or move his hands, and he can instantly feed back the answer with his divine thoughts.
So, people from the magic way and mysterious forces were still answering the questions on their own, but in a blink of an eye, everyone was dumbfounded. They had just selected a question to answer when it disappeared from the light curtain. After failing to get the questions again and again, they simply gave up and watched the waterfall of questions on the light curtain disappear one by one at a dizzying speed.
