#231 - "Shooting Star"
Liang Yue's arrival naturally quickly attracted everyone's attention, after all, his big white dog suit was still too conspicuous.
However, he himself didn't have the slightest intention of chatting with them, his figure moved slightly, and with a flash of sword light...
"Whoosh ~"
In an instant, those few imperial hounds were cut in half.
As for the other Kongtong Sect elites, they also didn't escape the fate of being knocked unconscious. After a few brain-fizzing strikes, they immediately fell softly to the ground.
"Is this the Kongtong Sect's library~cave?"
"Otherwise, why would they guard it so closely? Quite a few people have died here."
Glancing at the corpses on the ground that almost covered the entire floor, Liang Yue then leisurely, with a bit of anticipation in his heart, walked into the mountain cave in front of him.
Saying it's a mountain cave isn't really accurate. After coming in, he realized that this was actually a karst cave, and a very large one at that.
Irregular stalactites grew all around, with bizarre and varied shapes.
Unfortunately, there were no colored lights to illuminate the interior like in modern society, lacking a bit of dazzling brilliance.
But the braziers still rendered the inside extraordinarily mysterious.
"Drip~"
The path in the cave was winding and twisting, and occasionally drops of water would fall into the stone hollows, the sound echoing off the cave walls, sounding exceptionally crisp.
The dim environment in front of him didn't have any effect on Liang Yue, he still maintained a high-speed mode of travel, taking in all the scenery and furnishings along the way in a cursory manner.
However, in order to not miss any details along the way, he also took out a torch from his storage space.
In an instant, the soft red light immediately illuminated the surroundings, revealing everything clearly, and the entire karst cave seemed to become festive.
That's right, what Liang Yue took out at this time was a redstone torch.
Originally, he generally wouldn't make something like this that wasn't very practical~
Using redstone to make torches, although there was a lot of redstone in the stronghold world, this behavior was indeed a bit wasteful.
However, since making such a torch in Stark's office last time, Liang Yue suddenly discovered that the situation in the game was still quite different from reality.
For example, the flame emitted by this redstone torch was much larger than that of an ordinary torch, and the light was very penetrating, so the lighting effect was naturally stronger.
The one he has in his hand now is exactly the one he made in front of Stark and the others before.
After about another quarter of an hour, after several twists and turns and wrong turns along the way, Liang Yue finally came to an ancient stone pavilion.
This stone pavilion building was almost entirely embedded in the huge rock mass, surrounded by patches of stalactite forests.
They were dense and could not be seen to the end at a glance.
This stone pavilion was built in the shape of a palace, with dragons and phoenixes carved on the walls, and many notes from previous Kongtong Sect figures were left, which seemed to be very old.
In fact, Liang Yue also knew that the Kongtong Sect was a long-standing sect, and there were even fragments of records about them in ancient Qin and Han books.
The era of its origin was even longer than the current martial arts supreme Shaolin Temple.
After such a long era of changes, Liang Yue didn't find it surprising that some relics of the predecessors could still be preserved.
Following the stone hall all the way forward, after searching for a while, he quickly came to a fork in the road.
The three simple seal characters "Books", "Medicine", and "Weapons" were carved above the three stone paths respectively.
"Sniff sniff ~"
"Hmm~! This smell, although very faint, makes people want to get lost in it unconsciously, as if there is a kind of irresistible magic, it smells~ like some kind of medicine?"
"I've heard that the Kongtong Sect has some good secret medicines, such as 'Huiyang Five Dragon Paste', 'Butian Paste', 'Heart Protecting Pill', etc., which are all good medicines that can reconnect tendons and bones, heal injuries and prolong life."
"However~ it's better to put these aside for now, let's look at the secret books first, let's look at the secret books~"
Saying that, Liang Yue walked into the "Books" path with a look of relief.
Then after a moment, this guy immediately curled his lips and walked out again…
"Sure enough, it's the same as I expected before, 'Seven Injury Fist' is already the highest unique skill in this sect, and the others have hardly given me any surprises."
"This light skill called 'Swift Meteor' is a bit of a surprise. It has already been recorded by the system on the task panel, so it should be a good thing.
It's a pity that, according to the feedback from the Observation Skill, this is also a footwork-type light skill that mainly focuses on fighting against enemies, and it's not the kind I urgently need."
Of course, don't look at Liang Yue's stinky face at this time, and the unclean appearance in his mouth.
For fear that there were any secret compartments or hidden spaces in the inner wall, where any real inheritance secrets were placed.
But the facts proved that he was thinking too much~
Next, Liang Yue went to the "Weapons" path.
The situation inside was a little better than the previous library.
Most of the weapons displayed inside were just souvenirs left by the previous generations of the Kongtong Sect for their descendants.
Generally speaking, weapons were able to be named because of people.
But in terms of quality, at most they can only be considered to be at the level that Liang Yue can recognize, and most of them are not even as good as the standard pure iron sword assembled in Liang Yue's toolbox.
However, in addition to these finished weapons, he also found some unusual ores and jade materials on several display cases, which were spotless and well-maintained.
Through the feedback of the Observation Skill, Liang Yue realized that these things were actually the legendary extraterrestrial meteorite iron, mysterious iron, cold iron, fine gold, and warm jade, cold jade, and other rare things unique to the martial arts world!
The quantity wasn't large, but it really gave him a pleasant surprise~
"Next~ it's time to go to the Medicine Hall. Smelling so fragrant, it shouldn't let me return empty-handed, right?"
With a trace of anticipation in his heart, Liang Yue then quickly walked into the remaining stone path.
Like the other two places, the end of the road was a small side hall stone pavilion.
At this moment, rows of wooden shelves were neatly arranged inside.
Liang Yue looked at the bottles and jars inside, and a bit of curiosity and longing arose in his heart.
Thinking of those martial arts novels and film and television works, where a pill can easily save people's lives, eliminate poisons, regulate internal injuries, and even greatly increase people's power.
How can such magical alchemy and pill-making techniques not be exciting?
"Sniff sniff~"
"That's not right! This smell is still a bit too special. This fragrance is not as simple as a medicinal fragrance. It also faintly carries a refreshing feeling.
It was okay outside before, but now that I smell a little more, I feel a little excited, and even my body seems to be cheering!"
After arriving in this stone pavilion, Liang Yue, relying on his keen sense of smell, almost immediately noticed the abnormality in the air, and then this guy followed the scent and began to search in this small space~
Soon, he swayed his nose all the way to the front of a stone wall.
The appearance of this wall is almost the same as the surrounding ones, all of which are the kind of original large stones that look a bit pitted, uneven, and undulating, and have not been deliberately smoothed after being chiseled.
But Liang Yue knew that his sense of smell would definitely not deceive him, that fragrance was coming from inside!
"This stone door is almost seamlessly sealed, and no interface marks can be seen."
"But unfortunately~ in order to move back and forth conveniently, you unconsciously raised a stone gap when arranging this mechanism."
"This fragrance should be coming out of the gap in the ground~"
