Watching the ripples appear on the water surface, the pavilion slowly rose, and Luo Xi stood by completely shocked, her eyes wide open in disbelief.
Her delicate eyes were completely filled with an incredulous expression.
It was just a reflection on the water, how could it become a real object?
Even if it was originally underwater, it couldn't possibly be this real!
But Liu Zixuan understood what was happening.
Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water.
Anything projected inside must have a real reference. In fact, the pavilion was right in front of them, just invisible to the naked eye.
Like the stars in the sky, looking up at them hanging in mid-air, assuming they're embedded in the sky, but not really. Each star is an unfathomable distance from Blue Star. The reason they seem so close is due to the principle of projection and the illusion provided to the brain by the eyes.
So, he used the same principle of the Star Array, after outlining it on the water surface, it naturally triggered the appearance of the real pavilion.
This pavilion filled with an ancient aura appeared before the two of them. Its magnificence and unique style alone made Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi admire the ancient people's construction skills from the heart.
Even though the present era has developed, capable of building more unique buildings, compared to the past, it has lost much of the meaning that brings peace to the heart.
As the entire pavilion emerged, the door also slowly opened.
Liu Zixuan held Luo Xi's jade-like hand: "It seems we don't have to part ways!"
Luo Xi nodded slightly, and the two of them walked into the pavilion side by side.
...
Inside the pavilion.
As Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi stepped in, they felt a strong scholarly atmosphere, as if this was an ancient Library Pavilion.
But, looking with the naked eye, not a single book was in sight!
"It seems like there's some obstruction." Luo Xi tried to walk to the left and right, only to be blocked by numerous invisible things.
Liu Zixuan reached out to touch, feeling as if there was a layer of transparent wall, making it impossible to move forward.
In the dark, he redirected his inner strength to strike, but it was like hitting the water surface, only causing a ripple, without any way to break through the invisible wall.
"There are stairs over there," Luo Xi pointed out.
"Let's go up and take a look. Earlier, I saw some silhouettes inside; there must be some special passageway here."
From the initial shock to now, both had become somewhat calm and understanding.
Anything from Ancient Times cannot be measured with ordinary thoughts.
Including some legendary species that have appeared here, and what else can surprise them further!
The second floor, only the passageway they came up from was freely navigable, but not the side rooms, as if blocked by something.
The third floor, the same.
By the fourth floor, there was a change; Luo Xi could pass through the passageway on the left of the stairs to reach a room, but Liu Zixuan could not.
"So, it seems the attributes inside this pavilion correspond to individuals, and only those with matching attributes can pass through the invisible wall into the rooms," Liu Zixuan muttered.
Luo Xi also tried to enter another room, but no matter what, the door wouldn't open; only one door would open when she approached it.
"As for me..."
"Don't worry about me, you go in and see if you can obtain some opportunities. Currently, all Martial Artists are scattered and haven't encountered truly important treasures, so it's beneficial to enhance your strength first. I have a feeling, fear that these are all tests for us, and once we exit Qiankun Palace, that's when the real competition begins!" Liu Zixuan said in a deep voice.
Luo Xi nodded slightly: "Alright, you check out the top floor, if I'm early, I'll wait for you at the fourth-floor stairway."
"Hmm."
Liu Zixuan responded and continued to move upward.
The fifth floor was the top floor of the pavilion, but the stairs leading there were different from the other floors, as they were spiral, and every step Liu Zixuan took gave him the illusion of not moving forward!
Thud!
Upon reaching the third step, a wall on the side made a crisp sound, and it vibrated slightly, ejecting a wooden box with three items on it.
Two books and a box.
Looking down, the first book was brown, with the title "Qiankun Array Map" written in standard script on it.
Under the cover, on the first page, it noted: Qiankun Array Map encompasses all, containing the skills and ways to break arrays of various great talents.
Upon seeing these words, Liu Zixuan's mouth twitched wildly, silently cursing: Damn, what a treasure! Though skilled in the art of arrays, he's yet to reach the pinnacle, and such a Qiankun Array, claiming to encompass all and holding ways to break them, is simply the ultimate treasure of Array Type!
Setting down the first book, he turned to the second, which surprised him even more, a swordsmanship book titled "Three Thousand Sword Techniques", and upon opening, it noted its essence: integrating the highest sword techniques of Heaven and Earth, forging the Sword Dao, one sword to level a mountain, one sword to break the sky!
What an awe-inspiring feat, a single sword could level a mountain and poke a hole in the sky.
Even if not truly achievable, these two statements alone are enough to drive those pursuing the Sword Dao insane!
As he saw these two books, a thought popped into Liu Zixuan's mind, did the pavilion's owner know him? Why did the treasures seem tailor-made for him?
With this thought, he couldn't help but look at the last wooden box. Opening it, a fragrance that benefited the meridians spread out.
On the back of the cover of the wooden box, it read: Life Reviving Pill!
The scarcely visible five words caused Liu Zixuan's outstretched hand to tremble.
Although it's rumored the Ghost Gate Needle has life-reviving effects, Liu Zixuan had never truly achieved it, but the elixir before him blatantly used the words life reviving.
In Ancient Times, there were quite a few mighty enough to achieve this!
Three treasures encompassing arrays, swordsmanship, and elixir, fitting all Liu Zixuan's attributes nearly perfectly.
This made him more convinced that the pavilion's owner knew him.
His outstretched hand stopped trembling, and a clarity brought Liu Zixuan calm.
This was just the stairs leading to the fifth floor, only the third step.
Such satisfying treasures appeared, what about the next?
Taking a deep breath, Liu Zixuan fell into a dilemma.
He recalled Mermaid Tessie's words, there wouldn't be living obstacles ahead, but in the pavilion, obtaining treasure is possible only by one's fortunes.
There were no living obstacles, but it didn't mean there weren't other inanimate ones; for instance, the three treasures before him, if taken directly, wouldn't that mean more treasures inside would have nothing to do with Liu Zixuan?
