The mountains in the 10,000 Beasts Sect were towering, majestic, and they undulated without an end.

Among the soaring pavilions, a tall and thin figure slowly moved up a mountain path. Many disciples from the Beast King Sect were envious and in admiration when they saw him. In particular, his hollow eyes were similar to a night sky with flickering lights, but they also looked like round holes that kept shrinking and collapsing inward. It seemed like one’s mind would be sucked inside if one took a few more looks at him. Who else could he be if not Ou Yangming?

At the end of the mountain path was one of the 10,000 Beasts Sect’s important places, which was a place for book collections. It was an extremely significant place in the sect.

Apart from people that contributed a lot to the sect and gained special access, very few people were normally allowed to enter the library. Moreover, the place was heavily guarded, which was evident how much the Beast King Sect valued the place. Needless to say, given Ou Yangming’s status at the moment, nobody would be ignorant enough to have the guts to stop him.

It was worth noting that Yuqi the Venerable One had bestowed Ou Yangming with his jade pendant to grant him special access into the library back then, let alone now.

Ou Yangming was a valiant figure that could refine flying carpets and most importantly, he was the Phoenixes’ messenger.

Since ancient times, the number of people that became the Phoenixes’ messenger was definitely less than 5.

Shui Wenliang was reading a book at the moment. Upon seeing Ou Yangming, he immediately welcomed the young fellow and asked with a smile, “Master Ou, long time no see. What books are you looking for in the library this time?” He looked sincere as he admired Ou Yangming from the bottom of his heart. The young fellow was not only outstanding in smithing art, but he could also refine flying carpets, interspatial bags, and so on. What did he not know?

Therefore, Shui Wenliang was very enthusiastic when he saw Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming waved his hand and answered, “Brother Shui, I’m here to read about formation maps this time.”

He spoke calmly, but those words sounded like sudden claps of thunder to Shui Wenliang, who clearly shuddered a little.

Shui Wenliang was in disbelief, and he thought, ‘How’s this possible? Why did Master Ou dip into formation maps too? How old is he?’

He had a solemn look on his face as he asked softly, “Master Ou, you’ve started studying formation maps?”

Ou Yangming flapped his sleeve and responded, “I’m far from studying them; I’ve only read about them cursorily. Besides, I gained something from my adventure this time.”

Shui Wenliang’s eyes froze, and the fats on his face twitched. He praised the young fellow, “Master Ou, you’re truly talented.” He spoke earnestly and was not forcing it. Ou Yangming had long convinced Shui Wenliang with his smithing art but now that he was getting involved in various other aspects, he had much more potential than Shui Wenliang imagined.

Following that, Shui Wenliang curbed his thought and said, “Master Ou, please come with me.”

With that, they walked one after another deeper inside the library.

Once they arrived at a side hall, Shui Wenliang noted sternly, “Master Ou, the books in this hall are related to formation maps. Should you need anything, call me anytime.” He was incredibly respectful when he left. If other people were to see him at this time, they would probably be tremendously shocked.

After all, Shui Wenliang was an Advanced Spiritualist that guarded the library, hence it was surprising for him to have such a gentle side.

Ou Yangming scanned the hall after Shui Wenliang left.

A neat row of grids was displayed in front of him, each one storing a book about formation maps. There were a total of 400 to 500 grids, which were much lesser than the other books in the library, but the young fellow was surprised yet overjoyed. At the end of the day, they were resources about formation maps!

He shook his head and lamented, “The Beast King Sect has a well-deserved reputation indeed; their foundation is so profound that it’s unimaginable.”

Ou Yangming knew how valuable pieces of information about formation maps were, and yet there were 400 to 500 books about them in this library.

As he looked up at the books in the grids, his eyes were filled with delight.

He scanned the books from top to bottom and picked 3 books after just a brief moment. Subsequently, he placed them on a desk and began reading quietly.

“Illusion Formations?” He chuckled. This time, he must perfect Illusion Formation Maps.

A rattle was heard as a round board released a mini light curtain. It was an Illusion Map that had been shrunken numerous times.

Ou Yangming brushed his fingers gently across the round board. He completely immersed his mind inside the book about Illusion Formations.

He looked like he had come to a sudden realization after half an hour, and he mumbled, “This rune arrangement can be released very quickly, but the true meaning of illusion will be lost, where one won’t be able to create confusion by passing off falsehood as truth.

“This rune arrangement fulfills the true meaning of illusion, but its release speed is limited. If one’s enemy is well-prepared, one won’t be able to succeed easily.”

He sometimes furrowed his eyebrows, sometimes relaxed, and sometimes came to sudden realizations. All in all, he entered a peculiar state.
