Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens

Chapter 471: Chapter 106: Xuanji Sect

“This… do I need this much?” Zhang Xuan’s mouth twitched, and his eyelids involuntarily fluttered.

One liang is ten qian, so twenty liang is two hundred qian. Blue Cloud Venerable only borrowed two qian of luck, yet not only did he seize Cold Frost Demon Lord in person, even Blood Venerate Demon Emperor didn’t notice…

At first, he always thought his luck was pretty good. He specifically went after Red Flame Demon Monarch, who was farthest away, but still got intercepted, nearly getting killed…

A hundredfold gap, are you kidding me? Is this borrowing or robbery?

“Go give it a try. Without luck by your side, trying to forcefully enter the Law Heavenly Capital, I’ll give you three words!”

Cold Frost Demon Lord said.

“What three words?” Zhang Xuan asked curiously.

Cold Frost Demon Lord nodded, “You’re doomed!”

Zhang Xuan: “…”

After a long time, Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but ask, “How do I borrow luck?”

“That I don’t know. I’m from the Demon Clan, most of the time, I don’t even have time to escape. Borrowing luck openly, I don’t think I have the life for it!” Cold Frost Demon Lord rolled his eyes.

“Alright then!”

Seeing that he really didn’t know, Zhang Xuan had no choice but to ask around about the location of the Xuanji Sect. Initially unclear, after asking several people, he finally found someone who knew.

Following the direction given, he proceeded ahead. Two hours later, a small building appeared in his sight.

Compared to the Wanxiang Sect, it was much lower, and even inferior to a general house, with only four tiled rooms, looking somewhat shabby.

“Is this the Xuanji Sect?” Zhang Xuan couldn’t believe it.

The same First Level Destiny as Emperor Fusheng of Luck, but the difference is too huge!

The latter’s toilet in the royal palace is probably much more luxurious than this.

Feeling strange, he still moved forward slowly. Before long, he arrived in front, and saw that the entrance was already crowded with people, over a hundred in total. Under the eaves of the tiled rooms, crooked characters spelled “Xuanji Sect”!

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a proper sect, and certainly doesn’t relate to a First Level Destiny.

Looking closely at the queue, Zhang Xuan was immediately surprised.

These people were all experts of the Life Sea Realm, even more than a dozen at the peak of Life Sea 9-dan! No weaker than the previous Five Forms Venerable Sage.

Previously, he was wondering if he had come to the wrong place. Seeing this eased his mind a bit… but with so many people ahead, who knows how long he’ll have to wait.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but ask a young man in front, “Brother, how long have you been waiting?”

Based on the other’s time, he could estimate how long it will take to reach his turn. If it takes many days, he has no time to wait here idly.

“Me? Three days, I think!”

The young man waved his hand casually.

Zhang Xuan’s eyelid twitched, “And the others?”

Three days and still at the end… this progress is too slow!

“Them? Well, some have been here for half a year, some for three years. As for the ones at the front… take a good look.” The young man pointed.

Zhang Xuan looked over, his expression turning strange. After a moment, he couldn’t help but ask, “Those two… are they already rotten?”

The two at the front sat motionless on the ground, their bodies shriveled and blackened, covered in flies. Clearly, they must be long dead.

“Yeah, those two have been here for over fifty years, didn’t make it…” The young man explained.

Zhang Xuan saw black spots before his eyes, “Then what are they waiting here for?”

They must be insane!

Borrowing luck is just to live better. If they’re dead, what’s the point of any good luck?

“You don’t understand, do you? They’re gathering luck for their descendants… Though they’re dead, if their luck brings fortune to their descendants, it’s worth it!” The young man looked at him like an idiot.

“Gathering luck for descendants?” Zhang Xuan was stunned.

“Yes, borrowing luck means giving and taking. They repay with their lives and decades of opportunities, so their descendants can enjoy without repayment.” The young man sighed.

“Repayment?” Zhang Xuan was shocked.

“Of course! You can’t borrow without repaying, what do you think they are, deadbeats?” The young man rolled his eyes.

“Uh…” Zhang Xuan was stunned for a while, then suddenly thought of something.

Both the Reincarnation Relic Tower and the Ten Directions Bodhi Soul-lock are famous treasures throughout the Source World. And yet, they easily fell into his hands, were easily refined, and he snatched Cold Frost Demon Lord’s Essence Pill without much effort, causing Blue Cloud Venerable significant loss…

Could it be because Blue Cloud Venerable borrowed two liang of luck and faced backlash?

It’s possible!

Although destiny is set, with insufficient luck, even if it’s destined, it can be lost.

Calculating it this way, borrowing two liang of luck was a big loss!

“Wait, I know someone who borrowed two liang of luck recently. You said those at the front have waited for over fifty years…”

Suddenly, Zhang Xuan realized something was off.

Blue Cloud Venerable borrowed luck to capture Cold Frost Demon Lord, which was definitely no more than a month ago. The ones at the front have died for many years…

Hearing his words, the young man looked at him oddly, “You really don’t know anything about Xuanji Sect’s lending method? And you dare to rush here?”

Zhang Xuan: “Lending method?”

The young man nodded, “Yes, mountains change shape, luck changes fortune! Therefore, Xuanji Sect borrows luck randomly, opening to lend during high fortune, closing during low fortune. And who they lend to doesn’t depend on the queue but on luck! Of course, the closer to the front, the higher the chance. Like those rotted at the front, they might not have been chosen initially, but over time, there’s a chance…”

Zhang Xuan suddenly understood, “So there’s such a way…”

He knew about the fluctuation of fortune but didn’t expect a sect skilled in the Heavenly Destiny of Luck to follow such rules when lending luck.

Seeing it this way, Blue Cloud Venerable had good fortune, quickly borrowing two liang of luck. But then his luck turned bad, losing artifacts and Essence Pill, and being captured and confined in Lingjiu Mountain.

“Of course, wait patiently. If luck is good today and the gate opens, and I am chosen, I can happily proceed with my plan!”

The young man nodded.

“May I ask… what’s your plan that requires borrowing luck?” Zhang Xuan asked curiously.

The young man, only at the primary stage of Life Sea Realm, not much higher than his own cultivation, needed to borrow luck? What for?

“Of course, to find Zhang Xuan and inform Crown Prince Yuanqing to get a huge reward!”

The young man’s eyes shone, his face filled with excitement, “Such a simple and boring wish…”

Zhang Xuan’s eyelid twitched, “Looks like you don’t need to borrow luck for that…”
