Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 563 Thirteen Perilous zones

Chapter 563 Thirteen Perilous zones

"I really lucked out this time.." Yang Qing said with a muffled tone as he chewed on a piece of the kung pao chicken that he had overflowing on a large plate that looked like it could serve a group of seven people.

He munched on a piece at a time as he made his way to the Library.

The design of the library was a miniaturized version of the main library at the Institute, though it lacked some of the facilities and resources the main library had, it still had the main ones.

lightsnοvεl.cοm It was comprised of four floors and space expansion runes had likely been inscribed to create room for those floors.

The first floor had red-grade and white-grade techniques spanning across different schools of cultivation. It had everything from attack and defense-based cultivation arts that favored different kinds of weapons, to professional techniques such as beginner guides to talisman making, ink refining, alchemy guide, introduction to arrays, to utility-based techniques such as herbology and spirit mine identification and the likes.

Other than that it also had bits and pieces of information that touched on geography, a touch of history, customs, and the like.

The second floor had a similar lineup except the grades of the art stored in there were from low to middle-tier orange-grade cultivation arts, and the secondary information recorded was a bit more in-depth than what was on the first floor.

The third floor held top tier orange grade cultivations arts and it also had special measures put in place to aid those in the library. Some of those measures were special rooms for them to practise or experiment what they were studying, there were spirit dew sandalwood incense sticks burning on the floor which were beneficial for clearing the mind and or improving concentration and cognitive abilities.

Several top-tier sky-grade artifacts worked hand in hand with the sandalwood incense sticks along with various arrays to help boost learning abilities.

As for the last and final floor, it was the smallest floor, but also the most important one. It housed seven blue-grade cultivation arts given to the Deer Mountain Branch. In addition, the artifact Yang Qing was told about the ethereal mist chime bell was stored on the fourth floor under a dense layer of blue-grade arrays that could only be disabled with the Branch Chief's token.

Those from the branch could only access the fourth floor with the Branch Chief's approval and a log of access would constantly be shared with the administration department at the main headquarters along with the Judicial Review Committee.

The library was deathly silent with dim lighting and the smell of old books permeating the area. Yang Qing couldn't help but sigh at the coldness of the place as he made his way to the fourth floor.

There was a private office for the Branch Chief on that floor, and in it contained various recording talismans and scrolls that contained all kinds of information on the Deer Mountain Kingdom and the range as a whole.

Part of one's duties as a Branch Chief, other than handle cases, was to keep up appearances and maintain cordial relationships with the powers in the area, but other than that they needed to constantly monitor the surrounding area, to prevent any surprises.

They would then log those excursions and send a copy of the log to the Judicial Review Committee which would then redistribute it to other divisions of the Order, depending on what information was recorded on the logs.

Yang Qing had asked about those logs and was informed there were copies kept in the office on the fourth floor, which became part of the reason Yang Qing decided to read the talisman Yen Xu had given him, in the library.

The office was just as he expected. A chair, spirit dew sandalwood incense burning on the desk, a shelf filled with scrolls, littered with over a dozen well-concealed killing and anti-scrying arrays.

Yang Qing walked as if with deep familiarity with the place and sat down on the chair behind the desk. After he sat, he took out the Branch Chief token and placed it on the left side of the black-brown desk.

Dense runes immediately appeared on the desk as palm-sized rectangular openings appeared on the desk. There were white crystals stored in those rectangular openings, with the openings numbering about 70.

Yang Qing moved to the center and picked up four from the center going right before he finally picked up two at the bottom right close to the edge of the table.

The ones at the center were the oldest logs of the place, while the ones on the bottom right were the most recent.

After he had picked all the talisman logs he needed, he took back the token and the desk went back to normal.

"Now let's see what is in here.." Yang Qing said as he inserted his spiritual sense into the talisman containing information on the in-depth survey of the Deer Mountain Range.

The instant he did, his face couldn't help but contort in shock because of the information contained within it.

"The Deer Mountain Kingdom has been living above a precipice and never knew, and to think they once wanted to consolidate all this territory under their control.

Truly the ignorant know no fear. They must have used all their kingdom's luck to not stumble into any of these places during their plan back then, if they did, there would be no kingdom today, especially these three.." Yang Qing said as he sucked in cold air.

"Disaster and reward go hand in hand but this, would you even live to enjoy the rewards.." he added as he went through the list.

The talisman had a recording of thirteen perilous zones with three described as the most dangerous, catastrophic to the level that they were guaranteed to kill anyone below the domain realm if they ventured in carelessly, and one of them was even dangerous to domain experts.
