CHAPTER 60: CHAPTER 59 PROFOUND YELLOW DAOIST COLLECTION

The Qingwu Group is one of the old established conglomerates in the urban version of the federation, holding a very high position in the entertainment industry for many years.

Short video platforms, entertainment platforms, and Weibo platforms in the urban version are almost all related to the Qingwu Group.

In addition, the Qingwu Group also focuses on talent development, discovering major internet celebrities and monetizing their traffic to promote the entertainment industry’s development.

Almost every famous internet celebrity on short video platforms, and even many movie stars, are connected to the Qingwu Group.

Lu Yan had heard of this long ago, and he even discovered during his investigation of Ji Xingyao that Ji Xingyao’s signed company was Qingwu Group.

But what he never expected was that the Qingwu Group in the urban version was actually the Cyan Simurgh Sect in the Xianxia version!

One is one of the ten righteous sects in the Xianxia version, ruling over eight thousand miles of territory in the southern region.

The other is a top entertainment group in the urban version, covering all aspects of the cultural and entertainment industry.

Although it’s known that many things have prototypes in different versions due to version changes, the gap between an Xianxia sect and an entertainment company is undeniably vast.

Reflecting on the several internet celebrity cultivators he encountered along the way, and Ji Xingyao, a true disciple who had fallen into the plight of a big internet celebrity, Lu Yan couldn’t help but twitch his lips slightly.

"So what does Cyan Simurgh Sect count as when it’s nurturing young disciples? An internet celebrity incubation center?"

The righteous sect filter that Lu Yan had just raised shattered instantly at this moment.

Looking again at the Cyan Simurgh Sect gate before him, the more Lu Yan looked, the more he felt this ethereal and immortal mountain gate had transformed from the Qingwu Group headquarters skyscraper.

Although the difference between a mountain range extending hundreds of miles and a skyscraper is too significant, with the world version update occurring, perhaps it’s not impossible for mountains to become skyscrapers.

"If I also become some kind of internet celebrity, would I naturally gain entry into the Cyan Simurgh Sect?"

With Ji Xingyao around, Lu Yan felt that this thought might really come true.

After some random thoughts running through his mind, Lu Yan was already approaching the Scripture Pavilion.

The Scripture Pavilion is located atop a peak within the Cyan Simurgh Sect mountain gate, a treasure tower nine floors high.

The area surrounding the Scripture Pavilion is quite desolate, even if you see a few cultivators passing by, most transform into light and swiftly depart, their cultivation far exceeds ordinary inner sect disciples.

When landing in front of the Scripture Pavilion, Lu Yan happened to encounter a cultivator in a purple robe striding out.

Lu Yan subconsciously glanced at the person’s appearance but then realized his actions were offensive, immediately bowing his head.

Only after the purple-robed cultivator flew away did Lu Yan lift his head.

Recalling the face of the purple-robed cultivator, Lu Yan only thought that the person seemed to resemble a novelist from history textbooks in the urban version.

Except that novelist seems to have died over a hundred years ago, leaving only black and white photos, making it impossible for Lu Yan to be certain.

"If it’s really that person, it seems not impossible to explain.

In the urban version, people can only live for tens or hundreds of years, whereas in the Xianxia version, living for several hundreds or thousands of years is common.

If someone’s lifespan had ended in the urban version, they wouldn’t also be at the end of their lifespan in the Xianxia version, right?

In the urban version, people whose lifespan has ended wouldn’t reappear, but remain in versions where their lifespan hasn’t expired."

"However, the historical length of the urban version is clearly far below that of the Xianxia version; Cyan Simurgh Sect has existed for tens of thousands of years in the Xianxia version, tracing back in the urban version might take you back to primitive society.

There must be rules here that I don’t know."

The more Lu Yan interacted with this world, the more he felt his insignificance, realizing that individual will is utterly negligible in the face of world version updates.

With a touch of sentiment, Lu Yan stepped into the Scripture Pavilion.

As soon as he stepped into the Scripture Pavilion, Lu Yan heard an aged whisper.

"Sacred ground of scriptures, those without the right to transmit skills shall halt."

"Boy, you’re not from Cyan Simurgh Sect, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan’s spirit jolted, taking out the Scripture Transmission Order, and in the next moment, an elder cultivator in purple robe appeared silently before him.

The elder’s face was withered like dead wood, exuding an aura of decay, as he grasped the Scripture Transmission Order from Lu Yan, the elder exclaimed in awe:

"Someone actually spared no expense to grant an outsider the Scripture Transmission Order, such a lavish act makes me feel quite admiring."

Lu Yan, upon hearing this, looked at the elder inquisitively and asked:

"May I ask, senior, is there any difference among them?"

Shaking the Scripture Transmission Order in hand, the elder explained:

"Cyan Simurgh Sect’s inner sect disciples holding the Scripture Transmission Order can freely enter the first four floors of the Scripture Pavilion, selecting one inheritance at will.

If held by a direct disciple, they can directly access the fifth floor and contact those Golden Core Secret Techniques and Divine Skill Scriptures.

If a true disciple possesses the Scripture Transmission Order, they can enter the sixth floor and receive the core inheritance of our Cyan Simurgh Sect, which at least includes top-tier methods directly reaching Nascent Soul!"

Saying this, the elder cast a look of pity towards Lu Yan.

"An outsider with a Scripture Transmission Order can also enter the Scripture Pavilion, but may only browse and select one scripture from the first three floors.

Of course, our Cyan Simurgh Sect collects treasures of literature from around the world, even the first three floors have many precious scriptures, but most of these are related to hundred arts of cultivation or ancient tales and Daoist classics, rather than many cultivation inheritances.

Exchanging the Scripture Transmission Order for these things is undoubtedly a misuse of valuable resources."

Only then did Lu Yan understand what kind of treasure Ji Xingyao had given him.

If Ji Xingyao herself held this order to enter the Scripture Pavilion, she could even exchange it for a Nascent Soul method. Such a treasure surely wouldn’t be as simple as Ji Xingyao had claimed.

Casually tossing back the Scripture Transmission Order to Lu Yan, the elder languidly instructed:

"You have three days to choose a scripture; holding the Scripture Transmission Order can activate the restriction.

Since the first three floors don’t include cultivation inheritances, you can browse books freely; this is a small compensation to outsiders like you."

With a slight pause in the speech, the elder added:

"Most scriptures on cultivation arts are inscribed with divine charm, learning requires insight into the charm within the scriptures; unless you possess extraordinary comprehension, merely remembering the text will be of little use.

Within these three days, try as much as you can, greediness will only waste this precious opportunity."

As the words fell, the elder disappeared from the Scripture Pavilion.

Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing the Purple Cloud Magic Robe of Cyan Simurgh Sect indicates a Golden Core Elder, an ancient monster with an eight-hundred-year lifespan.

Facing such an ancient monster, he naturally felt enormous pressure.

Even though the person has left at this moment, Lu Yan didn’t fully relax, aware that the elder must be hidden in the shadows monitoring the Scripture Pavilion.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yan began searching the first layer of the Scripture Pavilion with the Scripture Transmission Order in hand.

On the outside, the Scripture Pavilion appeared as a treasure tower, but internally it contains vast space, just the first floor resembles an all-encompassing maze library.

Lu Yan could only search according to the classifications on the bookshelves.

Lu Yan spent nearly half a day, finally discovering his target on a bookshelf on the second floor.

Using the Scripture Transmission Order to unlock the restriction, Lu Yan eagerly looked at the cover of the book.
