Chapter 6: 6. Heavenly Book
After looking around, Mo Jiuli couldn't help but twitch her lips in frustration. This place was absolutely a deathtrap...
It was a rather small stone chamber, and the materials of the walls, ground, and ceiling were not ordinary at all. There wasn't even a single crack. She stood up and touched the walls, which were smooth, cold, and as hard as iron. This wasn't just any wall—it was a doorless, windowless Xuantie Chamber, for heaven's sake...
Logically, staying in such a sealed chamber for long should cause oxygen deprivation, but Mo Jiuli didn't feel the slightest difficulty breathing. On the contrary, she felt extremely comfortable here, not even getting hungry or thirsty...
But even so, she didn't want to spend her entire life in this wretched place after finally transmigrating here. There weren't even any people. Would she not die from moldiness...?
At that thought, Mo Jiuli started to inspect more carefully. She had to find a way out, carefully scrutinizing every corner of the secret chamber...
Her small hands touched here and patted there, trying to find a mechanism or something...
Half a day had passed, but she still had no results. Mo Jiuli sat on the ground, leaning against the wall, and stared blankly at the ceiling, feeling somewhat speechless...
Heaven couldn't be playing her like that! Since she had been transmigrated here, there was no way she would be trapped here just to die, right...?
No, she couldn't give up! Mo Jiuli cheered herself up in her mind. After resting for a while, she searched the secret chamber again for an exit. She searched the surrounding walls and ground countless times, but still found nothing special. Just as she was on the verge of giving up, her eyes suddenly caught something...
Unexpectedly, a book had appeared in the spot where she had been sitting earlier. How could a book suddenly appear when she had searched this secret chamber countless times before without finding anything?
With curiosity, Mo Jiuli walked over and picked up the book. It looked old and somewhat like an antique, with a clean cover and no words...
When Mo Jiuli opened the book, she was greeted with two golden celestial characters. She twitched the corners of her mouth. A Heavenly Book? Had a Heavenly Book suddenly appeared just like that...?
Upon flipping to the next page, the first sentence made Mo Jiuli want to curse her mom! After seeing the Heavenly Book, the first page started with: "Congratulations on staying in the secret chamber for 12 hours. Having passed the first round of trials, you now have the right to open the Heavenly Book once!"
In fact, she wanted to say, if she hadn't been trapped here, why would she have stayed for 12 hours? The text made it sound like she was extremely lucky when, in fact, she had been incredibly irritated just moments before...
Nevertheless, Mo Jiuli sat down on the ground and finished reading this seemingly unreliable Heavenly Book...
It recorded a cultivation method, and she was now trapped in a place that contained a Heavenly Book. Only by cultivating to the First Floor according to the book's requirements would she have a chance to find a way out...
It didn't say anything about what kind of cultivation method it was, only providing a simple mnemonic...
After reading it, Mo Jiuli felt that she was completely messed up. If she remembered correctly, her current body was supposed to be a Trash, incapable of cultivating! They were asking a Trash to cultivate a method, was this sending her straight to her death...?
