Chapter 1790: Is This Book the…

Jiyaya!
Slowly, the crack between the two ma.s.sive doors opened wider and wider. With a thought, Zhang Xuan’s consciousness slipped right into the library.
He was extremely curious to see how the Library of Heaven’s Path had changed after an entire month of downtime for the upgrade.
What was before his eyes were countless shelves and books that filled the entire area, extending all the way into the horizon—the same sight as always.
When he first went into the Library of Heaven’s Path, most of these books were illusory in nature, similar to placeholders so as to prevent the shelves from appearing empty. However, at that moment, the shelves had been filled with countless real books that could probably fill a ma.s.sive lake if thrown together.
In the year that he had spent traveling across the Master Teacher Continent, the number of books that he had read was probably far greater than what anyone else had read in their lifetime. In terms of scope and depth of knowledge, there was probably no one who could compete with him anymore.
This was especially so after he had been through the mountain of books. He had not spent too long there, but the books that he had read encompa.s.sed the various changes from the primordial era till now, thus enhancing his state of mind and wisdom.
“Hmm? There’s an additional flight of stairs over here…” Walking around the Library of Heaven’s Path, Zhang Xuan noticed a certain change that sent his eyebrows shooting upward.
Even though the Library of Heaven’s Path had a terribly high ceiling, it had appeared to be a single-story building to him so far. Who would have thought that a flight of stairs would suddenly appear in the middle of the library? Could it be that there was something valuable above?
Zhang Xuan swiftly made his way to the staircase and began walking upward, but barely after taking a step, he staggered and nearly fell flat to the ground.
“The heck? This staircase is a fake?” Zhang Xuan’s complexion did not look too good.
The staircase before him was actually an illusion as well, just like the books that he had seen at the very start! Putting aside climbing to the next story, he could not even touch it!
To make a new staircase but not allow him to go up at all, what the heck was the Library of Heaven’s Path up to?
“Do I have to come across the real staircase in real life in order for this staircase to become tangible?” Zhang Xuan wondered.
Back when he first obtained the Library of Heaven’s Path, the books that were in there had been intangible, unable to be grabbed or read. It was only after reading innumerable books that he had managed to fill the shelves with tangible books. Could it be the same for the staircase?
Just that… he could understand the idea of reading books to fill the shelves, but how in the world was he going to find the relevant staircases to make it tangible?
“Forget it!” Unable to make sense of the situation, Zhang Xuan shook his head before moving ahead.
A moment later, he stopped again.
Other than the staircase, he noticed some changes in the internal structure of the Library of Heaven’s Path. Unknowingly, in the depths of the library, a new silent chamber had appeared.
From the exterior, the chamber seemed to resemble the shape of a ma.s.sive book.
“Reading Chamber?” Zhang Xuan read the words on the plaque hanging by the entrance of the chamber.
It was indeed true that most libraries had areas reserved for visitors to read their books quietly, but the Library of Heaven’s Path never had such a thing before. Was this a new function that had come with the recent upgrade?
