Chapter 2647 Entering The Restricted Floors

"Ah! A VIP card from the Ten Petal Company! Of course, that will work!" the man exclaimed, a bright smile spreading across his face. "The Ten Petal Company is one of our major patrons and contributes significantly to the library's upkeep. All VIP cardholders have unrestricted access to the entire library. Additionally, please take back your Immortal Stones—you don't need to pay with this card."

"That's convenient," Lin Mu remarked, pocketing the returned stones.

With the formalities completed, Lin Mu ventured into the library's vast first floor. Rows upon rows of shelves stretched as far as the eye could see, each laden with books, scrolls, and various manuscripts.

"This will keep me busy for a while," Lin Mu thought, a small smile gracing his lips as he delved into the treasure trove of knowledge.

Starting from the first row, he quickly scanned the books, searching for those he hadn't seen or read before.

However, his excitement quickly waned as he realized something disheartening.

"Huh..." he muttered. "I already know all these." @@@@

He moved to the next shelf and scanned its contents, only to find the same. One by one, he went through the shelves, discovering they were filled with common books and scrolls he had encountered in other places, most recently at Doumen's Book House.

In just fifteen minutes, Lin Mu had scanned the entire first floor without finding a single book worth reading.

"Guess it is a public library. I should've expected this to happen," Lin Mu said to himself, a tinge of disappointment in his voice. He promptly moved on to the second floor.

Here, the situation was slightly better. Most of the books were familiar, but there were several that were new to him.

"There we go," Lin Mu murmured as he began reading.

"Guess this floor contains more specialized content," Lin Mu observed.

To his surprise, the floor didn't just have general books—it also housed cultivation techniques and skills!

"Interesting... To think they keep these open for public use," Lin Mu mused.

Most of the techniques and skills were of relatively low grade, but considering the nominal fee of a hundred low-grade Immortal Stones, it was an incredible deal. Typically, even the lowest-grade cultivation techniques sold for at least fifty to sixty mid-grade Immortal Stones.

'Rolling Tiger Fist, Twin Qi Reflux Technique, Rising Pillar Technique...' Lin Mu read through the techniques and skills, transcribing them as he went.

Some techniques were familiar to him, but others were entirely new. While they weren't particularly useful to him, he hoped to gain insights from their principles.

It took Lin Mu just two days to finish the fourth floor, thanks to the limited number of jade slips. With this floor completed, he moved on to the fifth floor.

His swift progress surprised many, including his silent observers. The fifth floor was restricted and not often accessed by visitors.

"Dammit, what do we do now?" one of the observers whispered to his partner.

"What else? We wait here. He's bound to come down at some point," the second replied. "For now, go and report to the clan. It seems we're not dealing with a commoner, considering he has access to the fifth floor."

On the Fifth Floor, the number of shelves reduced even more and only jade slips were present here now. Of course cultivation techniques and skills were still the majority though a few of them seemed to contain various records.

One such record caught Lin Mu's attention.

'The Profound Forests of the Jui World.' Lin Mu's eyes lit up seeing it.
