"I think the Venerable Shamans should have heard from Venerable Shaman Woodrow why we have gathered here today." Chief Valencia while looking at everyone in the Great Hall.
The Venerable Shamans nodded.
"Don't waste any more ti, Valencia. Let us begin imdiately." Old Fjord said eagerly with his hands rubbing together.
Chief Valencia nodded and said, "Then let us all put our collections into the center."
After saying those words, Chief Valencia picked up the Tier 3 Interspatial Pouch attached to her waist. All the contents that she had collected from the vault earlier were shortly poured onto the ground.
The six Venerable Shamans followed suit also poured out the ancient book collections from their Interspatial Pouches.
In a short instance, the Great Hall's open center was imdiately filled up with a mountain of glittering and shining books and scrolls dating back to the primordial era.
"Venerable Shamans, this is your area of expertise, so I will leave it to you all to sort these out." Chief Valencia said.
She was not proficient in the runic language like the Venerable Shamans were due to all her ti being invested into cultivating the Darkmoon Tribe's Darkmoon Body Forging thod like a madman.
She would not have reached the Mid-rank Battle Master Realm in her 40's, otherwise. It was a realm where most warriors can only achieve in their senior years, typically around the age of 70 and above.
Within enough resources, a warrior can indeed reach the Battle Master Realm much sooner, but no sooner than 60 years of age.
Tribal chiefs are people capable of reaching the Battle Master Realm at 50 years of age, but few could reach it in their 40's like Chief Valencia.
Her cultivation was a testimony of the sheer effort and hard work she poured into cultivating her body.
"Just leave it to us."
The Venerable Shamans nodded at Chief Valencia's words and began scouring through the mountain of ancient books and scrolls.
anwhile, after Leon and Darlene left Helen's room, they were quickly spotted by servants searching for them. Not long after that, they were brought to the Great Hall, as per the chief's instruction.
"Oh? Looks like I was a bit late." Leon comnted while stepping into the Great Hall. The Venerable Shamans had already started reading and sorting the ancient book collections.
Chief Valencia walked over and smiled, "Better late than never. We'll also be relying on Little Brother Leonhardt's knowledge to help us sort these out."
"Leave it to ."
Leon nodded and strolled over to the busy Venerable Shamans to join them. Darlene followed right behind Leon before she was stopped by Chief Valencia.
"No one else is allowed inside while Little Brother Leonhardt and Venerable Shamans are working." Chief Valencia stated after seeing Leon glanced back.
"Alright." Leon nodded and said to Darlene, "Wait for outside."
Darlene curtsied and followed Chief Valencia outside. The Great Hall entrance was sealed with only Leon and the seven Venerable Shamans inside shortly after.
Leon suspected that Chief Valencia would inquire Darlene and the other servants about his previous whereabouts, but he simply shrugged.
It did not matter.
He shortly made his way over to the mountain of ancient books and scrolls before picking up an item carefully to inspect quietly.
No one greeted nor spoke a word.
Everyone was focused on translating the runic texts in their hands before making ntal notes of it. It was clear that everyone was used to working alone.
Leon felt that this work efficiency was relatively low.
"Everyone, I have sothing to say." Leon suddenly said while closing the ancient book in his hand. It was already scanned and recorded in the [Archive] without anyone noticing it.
The Venerable Shamans shortly turned Leon with furrowed brows, displeased by his interruption of their thought processes.
"Oh? Little Brother Leonhardt. You're here. When did you arrive?" Master Woodrow greeted, followed Old Tailor asking, "What do you want to say, young friend?"
Only Old Tailor and Master Woodrow greeted him warmly.
"I've just arrived." Leon smiled to Master Woodrow before turning to the others and said, "I can see that everyone is used to working at their own pace. However, it will take forever to get through this mountain of books at this pace."
Old Tinker frowned and said, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Naturally, we need to communicate. For example, this book in my hand is called the [Moon God's Cascading Steps], second volu. I know this, but do you all know this if I did not say so? What happens if soone finds the first volu but does not inform ? I would be wasting ti searching for it in the pile."
"My suggestion is we stick a piece of paper on each of these books with their transcribed nas and call it out after we are done. That way, we would know when soone else has the following volus under the sa na." Leon stated.
The Venerable Shamans began pondering his words with an understanding look. Their eyes widened slightly as they realized their current thod was truly rigid and inefficient.
"Little Brother Leonhardt here offered an excellent suggestion. Let us follow his suggestion, shall we?" Old Hamr said to the other five Venerable Shamans.
The six quickly reached a unanimous agreent.
Soti later, a few servants brought in stacks of paper and ink brushes for the Venerable Shamans to write on as they were instructed.
Leon and the Venerable Shamans quickly divided the items amongst themselves before getting back to transcribing the nas of book and scroll.
The Darkmoon Tribe's ink and paper were not well developed. The paper was not white like the paper used in the Crawford Kingdom, but brown.
Nevertheless, Leon did not care about this and cut the big sheets of paper into small slips.
He grabbed a new ancient book and transcribed its na on the brown slip before saying, "Big Dipper Fist, first volu."
No one comnted.
Thus, Leon placed the [Big Dipper Fist] First volu on an empty spot on the ground away from the big pile. Of course, he did not forget to scan the book and record it in the [Archive] covertly while he was holding it.
He proceeded to pick up another ancient book to transcribe.
On average, it took the Venerable Shamans three minutes to transcribe each book's na, while it only took Leon thirty seconds.
"Nirvana Heaven Finger Art, fifth volu."
"Ode of the Ice Phoenix, second volu."
"Divine Soul Mantra, ninth volu."
"Breath of the Dragon God Technique, first volu."
"Fire Emperor Blood Refining thod, third volu."
"Dragon God Bone Forging thod, first volu."
One by one, the books and scrolls had their titles written down and recorded. All manners of cultivations techniques for the soul, energy, and body were recorded down.
Law comprehension thods, breathing techniques, battle skills, and even weapon art; the pile contained a broad range of focus.
However, the broader the techniques, the less likely their complete volus would be found in the big pile of ancient book collections.
Nevertheless, Leon did not lose heart and took the opportunity to record everything into the [Archive]. So long as he possesses the first volus, the practice of the said thod can be comnced.
"Earth God Heavy Sword Art, first volu."
"White Monarch Divine Eye Technique, first volu."
"Dragon God Inferno Heaven, third volu."
"Overlord Spear Art, first volu."
"Demon God Bone Refining thod, second volu."
"Everlasting Blood Mantra, first volu."
"Dragon God Bone Forging thod, second volu."
As the Venerable Shamans continued to call out one na after the other, few nas began to overlap. At the sa ti, they were startled by the few demonic thods found in the midst.
Leon's eyes narrowed on a few thods listed.
[Overlord Spear Art.]
[Everlasting Blood Mantra.]
[Dragon God Bone Forging thod.]
The Overlord Spear Art; he had already obtained the second volu during his trip to Master Woodrow's Fragrant Tea Abode. Now that there was also the first volu, he can start practicing the technique all the way to the second volu!
[Everlasting Blood Mantra.]
He has also obtained this thod previously. Unfortunately, it was the third volu. He was still missing the second volu. Nevertheless, he can start cultivating the first volu if he chooses.
However, he was not in a rush.
He can decide after finding all his possible options. [Everlasting Blood Mantra] might not be the best thod for him, nor the most powerful thod there was.
It was also a dual technique of energy cultivation and blood refining thod. This might conflict with Leon's own energy cultivation thod when he resus energy cultivation.
[Dragon God Bone Forging thod.]
This thod particularly sparked Leon's interest.
Dragons had always been viewed as revered and extrely powerful existences. For there to be a dragon god, it could be said to be the dragon among dragons.
'Is this a thod specifically designed for the dragon race? Or can humans also practice this thod? If possible, can humans really have dragon bones?'
Leon pondered silently.
