I Alone Defeat All Enemies

The afternoon sun shines through the windows of the library and sprinkles on the quiet reading area.

Wang Hao and Jiang Rou's shadows stretch long on the ground.

They step on the golden spots through the windows and gently pass through the reading area.

There are still many people in this large library, but most of them remain silent.

The rustling of pages, the occasional sound of turning books, and the sound of the pen tip on the paper constitute the unique melody of the library.

Wang Hao took a deep breath, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of ink and paper.

He liked the smell here, which was full of knowledge and wisdom.

Jiang Rou led the way in front, and Wang Hao followed behind.

After crossing the first floor, the two came to the balcony on the second floor.

In the afterglow of the afternoon, Wang Hao saw an old man who was pruning green plants.

The old man's face was full of traces of time, and the wrinkles were intertwined like dead branches, telling the vicissitudes of history.

His temples were gray, but they appeared golden in the sun.

The old man seemed to have noticed them, and turned to look Wang Hao in the eye.

Wang Hao looked into his eyes, which were deep and bright, revealing a calmness and wisdom that had gone through hardships.

"Hello, Professor Xu!" Jiang Rou bowed to show respect, glanced at Wang Hao who was in a daze, and pinched his hand.

Wang Hao also reacted,

"Hello, Professor Xu!"

Mr. Xu smiled and nodded, and walked in slowly with his hands behind his back,

saying: "Come on, kids!"

The old man led Wang Hao and Jiang Rou to his office,

then asked them to sit down casually, and the old man made tea by himself,

and during this time, Wang Hao and Jiang Rou did not speak,

after all, the host had not asked yet, and it would be too bad to make a request first.

Ten minutes later, Mr. Xu divided the brewed tea into three parts,

first tasted it, and then asked: "Xiaohao, how come you have time to come to my place?"

"Do you recognize me? (°ヘ°)" Wang Hao had no impression of having contact with the old man,

"Haha! Of course I recognize you, Wang Yu's child, I held you when you were born!" Mr. Xu replied with a smile,

When Wang Hao heard this, Mr. Xu was easy to talk to, so he said straight to the point: "Mr. Xu! I want to learn ancient characters from you!"

When Mr. Xu heard this, his eyes also lit up, but he still asked: "What's the purpose?"

Wang Hao scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "I can't understand the things left by the ancients in the ruins, which makes me look like an illiterate, so I want to learn some knowledge of ancient culture. (-_-)ゞ"

After listening, Mr. Xu nodded with a smile,

Then Mr. Xu went out first, leaving only Wang Hao and Jiang Rou in the office.

Wang Hao first drank a sip of tea and praised it for being good.

Then he looked at Jiang Rou who was calm beside him and asked, "Is this done? Why did Mr. Xu walk out without saying a word?"

Jiang Rou slowly sipped the tea and said slowly, "Why are you in a hurry? Mr. Xu's work style is like this, a little unpredictable, just get used to it. (￢_￢)"

Obviously Jiang Rou has gotten used to Mr. Xu's way of doing things.

She was more panicked than Wang Hao when she first came,

but later she got used to Mr. Xu's work style and was not so anxious.

Not long after, Mr. Xu came in again.

This time he brought a big box with some books in it.

Wang Hao hurried forward to help.

After putting the pile of things in place, Mr. Xu took out something and handed it to Wang Hao.

Wang Hao took a look and the thing in his hand looked like a bamboo pole, but it was not a bamboo pole.

Wang Hao could clearly see that there were ancient patterns on it.

Wang Hao had seen this pattern in the secret realm!

It was somewhat similar to the pattern on the stone door in the Giant Ape King's cave.

Old Xu smiled and said, "Let's see if we can make the bamboo pole float without using spiritual power!"

Wang Hao was stunned when he heard what Mr. Xu said.

No spiritual power? Lift up the bamboo pole?

This made Wang Hao confused, but Mr. Xu could say that, which proved that there was a possibility of success!

Jiang Rou watched Wang Hao test with interest.

When she first came here, Mr. Xu also asked her to test it.

As a result, Jiang Rou just made the bamboo pole light up and move it for a while, and there was no follow-up.

Mr. Xu didn't say anything and put away the bamboo pole.

Later, Mr. Xu taught her ancient characters, and she didn't look at the bamboo pole again.

Today she wanted to see how far Wang Hao could go.

Wang Hao stood in front of Mr. Xu, holding the bamboo pole in his hand.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his heart.

Wang Hao carefully felt himself and the bamboo pole in his hand.

He had a feeling that he seemed to be able to connect with the bamboo pole in his hand!

Wang Hao didn't know how to describe this feeling.

He only knew that the more focused he was on sensing the bamboo pole in his hand, the more he could feel a force pulling him!

"Get up!" Wang Hao opened his eyes instantly, and saw that the bamboo pole in Wang Hao's hand stood up from Wang Hao's hand as if it was pulled! Then it floated in Wang Hao's hand! "Mr. Xu! Look! I did it!" Wang Hao looked at the bamboo pole floating in his hand with surprise and said excitedly, Mr. Xu stared at the floating bamboo pole, he was obviously a little surprised, and murmured: "It's really a genius, the mental power is so strong!" "Mental power? What is that? [・_・?]" Wang Hao asked in confusion, Mr. Xu also smiled and gave an explanation, "The ancients divided people into two parts: spirit and body, and also extended the two schools of body refining and spirit cultivation!" "Body refining is just like what it means, focusing on the body! This was popular and developed to its peak in the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago." "And spirit cultivation refers to focusing on the primordial spirit!" "Primordial spirit?" Wang Hao heard this term for the first time and thought it was very novel. "Start... start..." He said unconsciously...

"What?" Old Xu turned around and asked,

"Nothing...Nothing, Old Xu, please continue!" Wang Hao scratched his head and apologized,

"The main purpose of cultivating the primordial spirit is to have a clear mind and be full of energy!"

"Cultivating the spirit was popular in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and was pushed to the peak by the magicians of the Qin Dynasty!"

When he said this, Old Xu's eyes flashed, as if he was looking forward to the glory of that time!

This was also the first time Wang Hao understood the magician.

He could hear from Old Xu's words that this seemed to be a system that was not inferior to the body refining system!

"So...Xiaohao, are you interested in learning to cultivate your spirit?" Old Xu also revealed his purpose at this time.

"Cultivate your spirit? Do I really have this talent?" Wang Hao scratched his head and said,

Old Xu looked at him and said: "Don't doubt your talent. At your current stage, you can use mental power to control objects, which shows that you are very talented!"

Wang Hao thought about it and agreed to Old Xu's request.

But when he asked Old Xu about the method of cultivating mental power,

he was rejected by Old Xu. Old Xu smiled and said: "Don't rush the cultivation of mental power. You should finish what you should learn first, and then consider other things!"

Wang Hao then remembered that he came to learn ancient characters, and he also humbly asked Old Xu for advice.

During this time of seeking advice, Wang Hao also learned very quickly.

It was soon midnight.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mr. Xu asked them to go back first.

On the way back, Mr. Xu watched Wang Hao and Jiang Rou leave with laughter and chat on the second-floor window sill.

At this time, Mr. Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, holding a golden bamboo scroll in his hand, watching Wang Hao leave, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart...
