章 462: Wen Si - 462
Wen Si nodded. "Zhu Yi. So you say you know a bit about arrays. How did you learn?"
"I found a book. Unfortunately, it burned after I read it once." Zhu Yi responded.
Wen Si laughed. "Wow. It must have been some book. You're from White Palace City, so you don't know much about this place. I can say that in the history of top ten sects entering this inheritance, very few have ever made it past the array."
Zhu Yi responded. "I can handle it. Can you?"
Wen Si nodded. "I can."
"Even though so few people in history have successfully done it?" Zhu Yi asked. He was curious as to why Wen Si was so confident.
"Among the few who have made it past, 90% were from my writing sect. In addition, I'm a little different from those today and even in the past."
Zhu Yi was curious. "How so?"
Wen Si smiled. "I comprehend the true inheritance of the writing sect."
Zhu Yi didn't understand what he was saying, but it was probably impressive.
"For context, in the known history of the writing sect, only 3 people have successfully done so. I am the third."
Put into perspective, this shocked Zhu Yi.
Zhou Fan spoke for the first time since their conversation started. "Ask him how powerful the inheritance is."
Zhu Yi imperceptibly nodded. "How powerful is your inheritance?"
"I'm not quite sure. It comes from the founder of the writing sect, but we don't even know who that is. You wouldn't know, but our writing sect is the oldest sect in the world."
Zhu Yi was becoming more and more shocked. He also became wary. This person sounded strong.
Wen Si spoke again. "Oh. Well nevermind. I probably shouldn't mention that. I almost got lost in bragging."
"Mention what?"
"Something about legends of the founder, but that's inside knowledge. Anyway, would you like to try to break through the array? While we spoke, I was solving it. If you're not ready, I'll go ahead."
Zhu Yi shook his head. "No. I'm ready."
He got up and walked towards the array. Zhou Fan told him many specific movements to make and how to manipulate his Qi.
Although Zhou Fan spoke as simply as possible, Zhu Yi still struggled to follow his instructions perfectly. After all, he had never practiced arrays. Surprisingly, he was soon standing in the middle of the array. Around the array, all eyes were on him.
"Impressive." A voice said from behind.
Zhu Yi turned around and saw Wen Si. "I thought you were bluffing."
Wen Si smiled. "I thought the same."
Zhu Yi turned around and stepped forward. He fell down and landed in a carpeted circle.
Wen Si landed right next to him. "You know, you're the first person not from the writing sect to break through the array in 2000 years. In addition, you are the second person in history to do it while not from a top ten sect. The only person not in a sect at all. You are shocking."
"Thank you, but you don't seem shocked at all." Zhu Yi said.
Wen Si had been calm the entire time.
"You'll need more than that to move me, no matter how shocking you are."
After speaking, they both looked around.
Zhu Yi spoke again. "Do you know anything about this place?"
Wen Si shook his head. "Just the background info. The elders say to leave it to fate. After all, I'm the hope of the writing sect. If nothing goes wrong, I'll ascend."
"Ascend? As in leave this world?"
"Yep. It's quite hard to do it here."
Zhu Yi didn't ask any more questions. The room they were in was quite nice. It had a red carpet and elegant windows. The light flowing through them seemed straight out of a story.
Zhu Yi felt as if the room was so nice that he shouldn't be there. The ceiling was taller than any building he had been inside of.
"This is the library of arrays. According to the elders, it had every array that was in the world at the time that this inheritance was created." Wen Si said.
"Are there any array materials?" Zhu Yi asked.
Wen Si looked at him weirdly. "I almost forgot that you're, pardon my rudeness, poor. Logically, if you can find array knowledge, you should find materials, but I never heard explicit mention of them."
Zhu Yi nodded.
Zhu Yi began to walk down the hallway. It matched the large room in terms of design and elegance.
There had been nothing in the room.
Wen Si followed behind him, though he soon caught up and walked shoulder to shoulder.
Wen Si seemed to be curious about him. He asked many questions as they walked, and so did Zhu Yi.
"Are you from an ordinary mortal family?"
"I am. Are you the child of some powerful cultivator?"
"In my sect, both my father and mother are only at the mid levels. They are both at the core formation realm. Do you not have any sort of teacher or master?"
Zhu Yi had thought of an answer to this question long ago. He had already told his parents that he had a master, and if someone were to investigate him one day, they would probably find out about his words.
"I have a master, but we don't meet often. I met him in the woods and he taught me some things. He occasionally meets me outside of White Palace City."
"Interesting. Do you know how strong he is?"
"No. I can't fathom it."
"That's interesting. My masters are the grand elder and the sect master. Your master seems much more interesting than them."
"To me, he is."
As they walked and talked, they soon came upon a large double door.
"This should be the entrance to the library. Inside, I'll take my leave. It was nice meeting you, Zhu Yi."
"Likewise, Wen Si."
They walked forward and pushed on the doors. Zhu Yi saw a flash of light, and when he opened his eyes, he saw endless books and bookshelves as tall as mountains.
