The second battle with Liang Cen fully verified that Wang Chen's current strength has reached the strongest level in his field.
Liang Cen is no ordinary evil cultivator.
He was originally a silver-badged detective of the Demon Suppression Department. After becoming an evil spirit, his cultivation level rose instead of falling, and he entered the realm of half-step golden elixir.
This is the fundamental reason why Wang Chen and Liang Cen were seriously injured in the first battle and did not arouse any suspicion from Guan Shengping.
In the eyes of this Jindan master, it is normal for Wang Chen to lose to Liang Cen.
He just didn't expect Wang Chen to "lose" so miserably.
But in fact, Wang Chen didn't need to act. Once again, he faced this enemy at the pinnacle level of Zifu, and his display was completely crushing power!
In fact, before Wang Chen got the Waidan, he could defeat Liang Cen reliably.
Refining the outer elixir for one's own use, let alone dealing with Liang Cen, even a master of the golden elixir like Guan Shengping can fool him!
But Wang Chen, who quietly returned to Yongle Fairy City, still showed signs of damage to his foundation and a decline in his realm.
This also made Guan Shengping completely lose interest in Wang Chen, and he didn't even bother to use his connections to hire someone to treat him.
Under the instructions of the head of the anti-evil department, Wang Chen, whose "injury has not yet recovered", was quickly transferred to a new place.
Go get a very relaxing job.
The steward of the library.
The first two jobs, one as a jailer and the other as a police officer, are both at the bottom of the Yongle Immortal City system.
Now Wang Chen has been promoted to a level and has become a steward - a little boss!
Just where is the library?
The library pavilion in Yongle Fairy City is located in the southwest corner of the city, very close to the overhanging wall (the edge of the dragon turtle's back). Once a war breaks out, it is the place that is most easily destroyed.
The Library Pavilion is nine stories high. Although it is large in area, the architectural layout is completely the same as it was hundreds of years ago. It can be seen that ordinary repairs and maintenance work are rarely done, so that Wang Chen smells decay when he steps inside.
The smell of ruin.
After showing the official document from the patrol department, Wang Chen took over his new position smoothly.
His future job is to patrol the library, protect the books here from being vandalized or stolen, and maintain the peace and tranquility in the library.
But who makes trouble in the library when they are full and makes themselves and their families unhappy?
You must know that this library is not that library. There are thousands of books and volumes stored in it, but there are no magical secrets. They are basically diaries of experiences, cultivation gains, life insights, etc. left by predecessors.
There are also classics involving Taoism and Taoism!
In addition to these, the library also contains archives and documents accumulated in Yongle Fairy City over the years.
It is actually equivalent to the library + archives office of Wang Chen’s previous life!
Wang Chen felt...
This job is actually pretty good.
"Manager Wang, let me take you for a walk around the pavilion."
An old monk with a gray beard said with a smile: "How about you familiarize yourself with the environment first?"
This old monk's surname was Ma. From his appearance, he knew that he had been working here for too long and his life was unsatisfactory. There was helplessness in his smile, and his tone of voice was even more advanced.
"Thank you, senior."
Wang Chen bowed to the other party to express his gratitude.
The monk surnamed Ma waved his hand: "It's a small matter, it's just a small matter."
He sighed secretly in his heart. As long as a young Zifu monk like Wang Chen found an opportunity to stand out, he would definitely fall into the eyes of big shots outside the circle.
Achieve past glory!
It's just that Wang Chen is a bit old now and doesn't have any background. He probably can't afford pills to reshape his bones.
Then he worked in a place like Zangshuge. Over time, his whole body might become decadent.
Fall into eternal ruin.
Under the guidance of the monk surnamed Ma, Wang Chen started from the lobby on the first floor of the library and went up to the eighth floor.
Although the collection in the Library Pavilion does not contain secret books of exercises, it is also divided into grades. The lowest and most common ones are placed on the first or second floor, and then the higher they go, the more important they become.
As the new manager, Wang Chen does not need to do the hard work of cleaning, tidying up and repairing.
All he needs to do is supervise.
There is no need to click or work overtime, and there is no need to fight and risk life and death. This job is really comfortable.
Of course, the salary and benefits are incomparable to those of previous jailers and patrolmen.
The immortal honors that can be obtained throughout the year are pitifully few.
But just such a job is still very popular in Fairy City!
Wang Chen also had to thank the patrol officer for finding such a job in Hukou to support his family.
As a hard-core "librarian", the monk surnamed Ma, who was about to retire and return home, told Wang Chen exactly what he had accumulated over decades of work experience, as well as the rules and regulations of the library.
He thought that Wang Chen would be sad, angry, desperate, and regretful after truly understanding Cangshuge...
However, Wang Chen only listened but did not speak the whole time. He accompanied the monk surnamed Ma in the library and completed a "journey" of recalling the past.
Wang Chen feels more and more that this job is perfect for him now!
In the following days, Wang Chen came to the library on time every day, sat in his own room, and read through the classics and files he had brought.
It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of books hidden in the library. Even if Wang Chen's current monk is close to the golden elixir, it is estimated that he will not be able to finish reading these household registers in a few years.
What's interesting is that the ninth floor of the library is not open to the public, and Wang Chen was disappointed when he went there before!
As time passed, Wang Chen's "injury" gradually recovered.
However, his realm fell by three levels, from the eighth level of the Zi Mansion back to the fifth level, with "extremely heavy" losses.
You must know that once the realm of a monk like Wang Chen falls, it is very difficult to truly recover.
Therefore, Guan Shengping's evaluation of Wang Chen is much lower than before!
But Wang Chen has already found the joy of his new job.
He reads three books every day, one in the morning and two in the afternoon. The number of words is pretty much the same.
Then during his free time, if he was in the library, Wang Chen would silently practice his own elixir.
Although his Waidan has been practiced and can be controlled freely.
But the longer the sacrificial refining time is and the more times the sacrificial refining is performed, the higher the degree of compatibility between this outer elixir and Wang Chen will be.
At the same time, Wang Chen did not miss his schoolwork.
Every five days, the Immortal Sect will send a monk at the peak level of the Zi Mansion to preach and teach the people in the library.
He didn't miss any of the lessons he was supposed to listen to. He was just like a country boy who came to a big city to study, studying hard in order to have a bright future.
Although the city was safe, Wang Chen felt a faint sense of urgency in his heart.
This sense of urgency was like a whip whipping him hard, making him unwilling to stop for a moment.
Your efforts now may be the key to self-help in the future!
