Chapter 969: Solving Mysteries in the Record Pavilion (1/2)

Walking out of the grand palace, Nie Tian saw Tao Jin waiting for him. Only then did he remember that he had forgotten to ask about the mysteries of the flame spark, Nine Stars Flower, and tree leaves in his spiritual sea.

Thus, he talked to Tao Jin about it.

“That’s easy,” Tao Jin said with a smile. “You can just go to the Records Pavilion and check out related books. That’ll solve your problem. Given your status, our sectmaster should have given you instructions himself. Every time our sectmaster returns, the Sons of the Stars will be allowed to ask him about what puzzles them in their paths of cultivation.

“If our sectmaster doesn’t return for a long time, sometimes our grand elder will take over that responsibility and answer those questions. But unfortunately, our grand elder isn’t here either.”

After hearing this, Nie Tian gradually realized that the structure of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace was actually rather loose, as they kept special relationships only between the sectmaster, the vice sectmasters, and the Sons of the Stars.

The three sectmasters and seven Sons of the Stars were all considered independent from the sect.

As transcendent existences, they were allowed to summon subordinates and manage their own realms and domains.

Nie Tian then bid Tao Jin farewell and headed towards the Records Pavilion.

With a Star Medallion in his hand, he didn’t have to pay any contribution points to read books and scrolls in the Record Pavilion.

Other disciples, however, would have to pay contribution points in order to find and read ancient records of spiritual incantations that suited them.

His appearance in front of the establishment gave rise to a clamor.

Many disciples that were entering or leaving recognized him at first sight, since they had seen his portrait.

They talked in low voices as he walked up the stairs.

Soon, Nie Tian came to the floor where countless ancient records regarding wood power were piled up on ceiling-reaching shelves.

In a few minutes, Nie Tian found an old, torn book. “The Big Book of Earth Cultivated Grade Spiritual Materials!”

He found a random location and started reading.

It recorded a variety of Earth Cultivated grade spiritual plants and materials with illustrations.

According to the book, some of the spiritual plants and materials could help speed up the cultivation of those who practiced wood power, while others could be used to improve the might of spiritual incantations, or refine Spirit Channeling grade treasures.

As he browsed through the book, the illustration of a green leaf suddenly caught his eyes.

“This is it!” Nie Tian immediately realized that the leaf in the illustrations was identical to the magical tree leaves that were floating in his wood power core.

Written under the illustration was a line of very small words, which explained the origin of the leaves.

“They’re leaves from a Godspirit Tree!” Nie Tian exclaimed inwardly.

It was recorded that realms where Godspirit Treest took root were blessed lands for cultivators who practiced wood power.

These realms would be able to channel dissociative wood power from the depths of the starry river to make themselves full of vigor. Any tree or plant would grow more rapidly in these realms, and produce all kinds of rare spiritual herbs.

Godspirit Trees were categorized as Heaven Nourished grade spiritual materials, which meant they were extremely rare.

It appeared that they could only be found in Floragrim realms now.

The leaves of Godspirit Trees were categorized as Earth Cultivated grade spiritual materials, which could merge with wood power cores, therefore helping human Qi warriors absorb wood power at a faster rate.

It was just that the leaves alone couldn’t channel wood power from the depths of the starry river as the Godspirit Treescould.

However, juice from the leaves of a Godspirit Tree could accelerate the growth of spiritual plants and herbs.

Nie Tian instantly felt enlightened. “So those leaves were leaves from a Godspirit Tree. And they have such fascinating uses.”

Afterwards, he found records of Heaven-equal Vines on another shelf.

“Heaven-equal Vines are Heaven Nourished grade spiritual materials. They can grow to the size of mountain ranges. With the ability to easily crush rocks and penetrate metal, they can be used to forge Spirit Channeling grade treasures. The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace came to an agreement with a Heaven-equal Vine, which stipulated that it should keep a shattered realm together...”

The records regarding Heaven-equal Vines turned didn’t seem to address its most important features.
