Jian Chen took a deep breath and quickly calmed down, then walked slowly to the bookshelf, his eyes swept over the dozen books one by one, and then directly pulled out the first one, and then walked to the defeated book in the center. I sat down at the desk and started reading. This book is about cultivation experience and techniques for breaking through bottlenecks. It even explains clearly what you need to pay attention to when you advance to become an Earth Saint Master.

Although there are not many books on this first floor, each one is the best among the best. If taken outside, it will definitely cause a bloody storm.

Jian Chen carefully flipped through the pages of the book one by one. He quickly finished reading the not thick book. After reading it, Jian Chen suddenly fell into deep thought. It must be said that he picked up a book casually. This book can open his eyes. The cultivation system of this world has completely overturned Jian Chen's previous life. After reading this book, Jian Chen clearly feels that he understands the cultivation system of this world better. Go a little deeper.

It didn't take long for Jian Chen to finish reading more than a dozen books on the bookshelf. Among these dozen books, half were about cultivation experiences and various obstacles encountered in cultivation, and the other half were all about There are some cultivation techniques, but the highest among these cultivation techniques is only the advanced level. What was most helpful to Jian Chen were the few books on cultivation experience and the handwritten notes of Bunaien, the first dean of Kargas Academy.

Jian Chen's eyes fell on the purple gold treasure box placed above the bookshelf. According to the dean, what was contained in this purple gold treasure box was a beginner's level cultivation technique. Although Jian Chen didn't know how valuable a beginning-level Heaven-level skill was, he knew that it was definitely a priceless treasure.

After all, the Tian-level skills ranked second among all the skills on the Tianyuan Continent, and were only one level behind the top-level skills on the Tianyuan Continent.

Jian Chen slowly opened the purple gold box, and saw a palm-sized book lying quietly inside. On the cover of the book, the four characters of the Great Luo Heart Sutra were written in flying colors. When the book was held in his hand, he felt a soft and comfortable feeling. The feeling immediately spread into Jian Chen's hand, and there was a trace of warmth mixed in it, as if it had just been touched by someone and had not completely faded away.

The booklet is made of the fur of a kind of magical beast. It is very flexible and not easily damaged at all.

Jian Chen carefully took out a book that was only the size of his palm and started to flip through it. His expression was solemn. Obviously, he also understood that it was very difficult for him to see such high-level cultivation techniques at this stage. Although he didn't He plans to practice this technique, but at least it will be of some benefit to him to experience it. Maybe he can find something valuable in it that he can learn from.

Two hours later, Jian Chen finally moved his eyes away from the booklet, lowered his head and thought deeply for a while. When he was sure that he could memorize the contents of the booklet completely, he put the booklet back into the purple gold box. , and then return to the original position.

Looking at the dozens of books on the bookshelf again, Jian Chen let out a long breath, and then walked towards the stairs leading down without any hesitation. But today's group on the seventh floor of the library has gained a huge amount for Jian Chen.

Afterwards, Jian Chen read all the books on the sixth level again. Although the books on the sixth level are not as valuable as those on the seventh level, they are still a big gain for Jian Chen, especially those left by his predecessors. The various cultivation experiences he read were of great help to Jian Chen.

In addition to these, Jian Chen also learned from these books that there were many diluted spiritual materials and rare treasures in Tianyuan Continent, which could not be found in the libraries on the lower floors.

When Jian Chen walked out of the library, it was already dark. Unknowingly, he had been in the library for a whole day and even forgot to eat.

"Gululu..." At this moment, Jian Chen's stomach finally growled unsatisfactorily.

Jian Chen stretched out his hand to touch his stomach, which was already aching from hunger, with a helpless smile on his face, and then walked directly towards the canteen.

After a hurried dinner, Jian Chen walked directly towards the dormitory. Along the way, many students looked at him with complicated looks, including envy, admiration, jealousy, etc.

Jian Chen didn't care about the glances around him and walked towards the dormitory without squinting. When he entered the dormitory building, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of his dormitory door from a distance. He was relieved that it was his eldest brother Changyang. Tiger.

"Brother is still here waiting for me to come back so late. Could it be that there is something urgent that you want to see me for?" Jian Chen secretly underestimated it in his heart, and walked over quickly with his feet quickening.

"Brother, why are you still here waiting for me at such a late hour? Is there anything you can't talk about until tomorrow?" Jian Chen came to Changyang Hu and asked.

As soon as he saw Jian Chen coming back, Changyang Hu's face suddenly turned into bitter eyes, and he sighed and said: "Alas... Fourth brother, you are finally back. Where did you go today? Brother, I almost put the whole I’ve searched all over the academy but can’t find you, I’ve been waiting here for you all day.”

Jian Chen showed a trace of apology on his face and said, "Brother, do you have anything important to do with me?"

After hearing this, Changyang Hu immediately showed a happy smile on his face, and said in an excited tone: "Of course something happened, and it's a big deal. Come on, fourth brother, let's go into the house and talk."

Jian Chen nodded slightly, took out the key from his space belt and opened the door of the dormitory. The door of this dormitory was a new one. The previous door had been beaten to powder by the vice-dean.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, Changyang Hu immediately closed the door, and then said immediately: "Fourth brother, a message from home just came. You are so lucky. Brother, I really envy you."

Hearing this, Jian Chen showed a look of confusion on his face, and asked in confusion: "Brother, what is going on?"

Changyang Hu walked to Jian Chen's bed and sat down, with a happy smile on his face, and said: "Fourth brother, you probably don't know yet, but dad has already engaged you."

After hearing this, Jian Chen's face was obviously stunned, and then he reacted, with a look of disbelief on his face, and exclaimed: "What! Engagement!"

Changyang Hu nodded fiercely and said happily: "Yes, fourth brother, and the target is His Majesty the King's third princess, Princess Gran. I heard that this engagement was proposed by His Majesty the King."

Hearing this, Jian Chen's face suddenly became serious. He was very surprised by this situation, and more importantly, he was dissatisfied that his family had decided on his marriage without his consent. This kind of fate completely arranged by the family made Jian Chen extremely disgusted.

Looking at Jian Chen's face, Changyang Tiger thought that Jian Chen was worried about Princess Gran's appearance, so he couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Fourth brother, don't worry, although I have never seen Princess Gran, I have heard that Many things have been said about her. Princess Grant is the third daughter of His Majesty the King. She is naturally beautiful and has a beautiful appearance. She has been a prodigy since she was a child. She is not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also has a talent for cultivation. She is very outstanding. It is said that Princess Gran's holy power has reached the seventh level when she was fifteen years old. She is deeply favored by His Majesty the King and is the apple of His Majesty's eye. His Majesty the King loves Princess Gran in every possible way. ah."

After saying this, Changyang Hu sighed and said: "Let's not talk about Princess Gran's noble status. Her talent in cultivation alone is beyond the comparison of my eldest brother and me. Fourth brother, His Majesty the King can conquer Princess Gran. Being betrothed to you is a blessing for you, and you don't have to look like a bitter melon face anymore."

Jian Chen sighed secretly, how could Changyang Tiger understand his thoughts? No matter how beautiful Princess Gran was, Jian Chen would not be tempted. Now he just wants to improve his strength wholeheartedly, and I don't want to waste time getting entangled in these emotional matters for my children. And he knew very well that His Majesty the King must have known about the achievements he had made in Kargas College. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to betroth his most beloved daughter to him so decisively.

Since this marriage was proposed by His Majesty the King, Jian Chen also knew that he was unable to refuse it at present. Not to mention whether his parents would give up such a good opportunity to make friends with the royal family, and this also related to the royal family. face. Unless His Majesty the King takes the initiative to withdraw the order, with Jian Chen's current status, he can only accept it calmly.

However, what makes Jian Chen feel at ease is that this marriage is only temporarily settled. There is no explanation of when the marriage will be officially formalized. This also means that this marriage can be extended indefinitely. At least, it can give him something. Time to breathe, after all, in his heart, he doesn't want to talk about feelings yet, and Jian Chen was free and easy in his previous life, and he has gradually fallen in love with wandering in the lake, living in no fixed place, using the sky as his quilt and the earth as his bed. Such a life, if there is one more person around him in the future, he will really feel very uncomfortable.

After Changyang Tiger left, Jian Chen sat alone on the bed and meditated. It had to be said that the news from home was so sudden that Jian Chen felt caught off guard.

"Hey. Let's put our time on cultivation. After all, strength can decide everything. When I become stronger, even if I take the initiative to propose breaking off the engagement, the king won't say anything." Jian Chen let out a long sigh. He slowly calmed himself down, then sat cross-legged on the bed and continued practicing.

Jian Chen took out a first-level magic core from the storage ring, then slowly closed his eyes, began to absorb the energy in the magic core, and began to practice. Since Jian Chen's strength broke through to the saint two days ago, Tonight was his first time practicing. In the previous two nights, he had been familiar with the use and control methods of the holy weapons.

Just when Jian Chen started to absorb the energy in the demon core, suddenly, the energy in the demon core passed faster and faster. At the end, the energy in the demon core was like a wild horse that ran wild, moving crazily towards Jian Chen's body. Rushing forward, the speed at which Jian Chen absorbed energy surged to hundreds of times the normal energy absorbed by the magic core in just an instant.

The sudden change made Jian Chen's face suddenly change. Although everyone hoped that the speed of absorbing energy could be accelerated, the speed at which Jian Chen absorbed the magic core energy at this moment had reached a very terrifying speed. Jian Chen didn't have time to refine the energy in the core, which not only did him no good at all, but also brought him endless harm, because the energy that was not refined by him was beyond his control. Such a huge Once the energy stirs up chaos in his body, the consequences will be huge enough to plunge Jian Chen into a place of eternal destruction.

Jian Chen immediately stopped absorbing the energy in the demon core, but fortunately, when he stopped absorbing the energy in the demon core, it went very smoothly, and there was no terrible situation that he could not control. Otherwise, I am afraid that he would really There is a big trouble.
