C1 The Ghost in the Library

"Do you really want to go in, young master?" Xiao Cui looked extremely afraid.

Seeing Xiao Cui's stubborn look, Mu Fan couldn't help but feel amused. He felt disdain in his heart towards Xiao Cui, "A little kid is a little kid, why would he be afraid." He had no idea how many years older Xiao Cui was compared to him!

"You can keep watch outside. I'll go in myself."

Hearing Mu Fan's words, Xiao Cui felt a lot more relaxed, as if she was relieved of a burden. However, she still worriedly asked, "Young Master, you have to be careful, if you really meet a ghost, immediately call me."

"Got it." Mu Fan stepped onto the stairs in front of the Compendium Pavilion as he responded. He snickered in his heart, "If I were to call you that, you'd definitely run faster than anyone else if I told you there was a ghost."

Mu Fan pushed open the door of the Compendium Pavilion.

The dust on the door fell down like flour, "Cough ~ cough ~" Mu Fan used his hands to scatter the dust off his face, "So much dust, nobody has been here for at least a few years."

Half a minute later, Mu Fan could finally open his eyes.

Mu Fan was so shocked that his mouth dropped open when he saw the scene in front of him.

"So many books!" At the very least, there should be fifty thousand books. " In an instant, a large hall was filled with bookshelves. The bookshelves were also filled with all kinds of books. It was the equivalent of a small library from his previous life!

"With so many books, how am I supposed to find books on sensing the innate attributes?" Mu Fan looked at the tens of thousands of books in front of him and didn't know where to start.

Mu Fan had no choice but to use the dumbest method, starting from the bookshelf on the left side of the door to look for the book he wanted.

Due to his limited height, Mu Fan couldn't reach the top book, so he could only take out a book from the middle of the shelf. Along with the book, there was also a cloud of dust which made Mu Fan cough again.

"Dad, mom, seriously, why don't you call someone to clean up?" Mu Fan muttered as he used his hands to sweep away the dust on the cover of the book in front of him. Only then did he see the title written on it.

Magical beasts were divided into ranks from one to nine, and each rank corresponded to the different grades of magical beasts that humans cultivated. However, there were only ranks of magical beasts and no stars, and the strength of magical beasts of the same rank was determined by their ranks. For example, a dragon of the ninth rank was much stronger than any other magical beast of the ninth rank.

Mu Fan opened the book called "An Encyclopedia of Level 3 Haotian Continent Beasts" and saw that it recorded most of the Level 3 Haotian Continent beasts and the places they lived in. For example, the magical beast of the third rank, the Violent Wolf, lived on the plains, while the Night Leopard, a magical beast of the third rank, lived in the forest.

"Right now, I can't even sense the nature of my innate skill, what use is there to look at these books?" Mu Fan put down the book and casually picked up another one. "Comprehensive Collection of Earth Element Rank Four Magic and Dou Techniques", this is a Rank four skill book, "You haven't even learned how to run, can you?" Mu Fan put the book back helplessly.

Half an hour passed, during which Mu Fan had already read over a hundred books, not just about magical beasts, but also skill books of Third Cycle or higher. However, they were saved by Mu Fan's great-grandfather and grandfather, so Mu Fan was able to understand that since they were both Rank six and above powerhouses, any skill books below Third Cycle had no collection value for them.

These books were too advanced for someone like Mu Fan, who had yet to sense his Innate Ability!

However, hard work wasn't a waste. After Mu Fan continued to look through dozens of books, he finally found a skill book that was lower than Three-wheel Level.

Looking at the title, Mu Fan thought in his heart: "Although I still don't have a sense for the nature of the wind element, maybe I'll be able to gain some insights by looking at low-level cultivation techniques."

Flipping open the book, he saw on the first page: "Wind exists in nature, beneath the sky, above the land, wind is everywhere."

If it was someone who came to learn a skill, he would naturally skip the introduction. However, for someone like Mu Fan, who didn't have a real attribute, he naturally wouldn't miss out on this paragraph that was specifically written for beginners. Furthermore, every single paragraph of Mu Fan's words was read with extreme seriousness, not even leaving a punctuation mark!

" Seeing this, Mu Fan finally understood why the beginner skill book was here. So it was a book his great-grandfather had given him when he first started school. Maybe his great-grandfather's first magic skill had been learned from this book, which was why his great-grandfather had preserved it with such a great value.

After all, Mu Fan's great-grandfather, Mu Batian, was the strongest expert in Maple Tree Ridge, and when Mu Fan was three years old, Mu Fan's father, Mu Tieh, often told Mu Fan stories about Mu Batian's life.

Mu Batian's talent was outstanding since he was young, and he had a dual innate affinity. Thus, when he was eleven years old, as the number one genius among the children of the same age as his Maple Tree Ridge, he was successfully sent to the most outstanding school in Haotian Continent — Central Academy.

Mu Fan continued to flip the book to the back and saw some low-level wind skills called "Summoning Wind Speed", "low-level Agility", and "Wind Blade".

Amongst them, the Wind Summoning Technique and Wind Blade were Rank one and four star magic skills, while the Low Agility Technique was a Rank two star skill that improved the sensitivity between the magic and battle skills.

Mu Fan turned to the page on the Wind Summoning Spell and looked at the summoning chant. He had a thought and prepared to give it a try, as he might not be able to feel any magic elements and could also use magic. He then silently chanted an incantation, "The omnipresent Wind Fairy, I sincerely call you to gather."

Since it was the lowest level of magic, the incantation was also very simple.

"As expected, it's not good." Mu Fan sighed. He did not first sense the nature of wind, so he was indeed unable to use wind magic.

However, just as Mu Fan was feeling dejected, something happened and a strong wind blew inside the Compendium Pavilion! The sound of the wind almost made Mu Fan unable to open his eyes!

"Hmm? Did I succeed in using magic?! " Mu Fan thought happily as he looked at the sudden appearance of the strong wind.

However, Mu Fan's happiness only lasted for a short while before it ended because Mu Fan saw a figure floating in the wind. His long hair was wildly fluttering in the wind, as if he was an Asura from hell!

"What?" The pleasant surprise instantly turned into endless fear. It's a ghost! " Mu Fan didn't believe that there was a ghost in this world, but he couldn't explain it.

Mu Fan's cry of surprise didn't travel far because a voice from all directions drowned Mu Fan's shout: "Magic." It's not used that way! "

"You. You. Is it a human or a ghost? " Mu Fan asked in fear amidst the gale. At the same time, he thought to himself, "Why is that girl Xiao Cui still not coming in? Could it be that she didn't hear the commotion inside?"

What Mu Fan did not know was that even though there was a huge gust of wind in the Compendium Pavilion, it was calm outside. As for Xiao Cui, she was dozing off on the stairs in front of the Compendium Pavilion as she mumbled, "Why isn't Young Master coming out yet?" But she wouldn't have had the guts to let him in to see her.

"Haha, Lee Pingfan, are I a human or a ghost?" Are you a human or a ghost? " The voice came from the shadow and actually called Mu Fan Lee Pingfan!

Mu Fan was shocked to hear the figure calling him Lee Pingfan from his previous life, "You. "How did you know I'm Lee Pingfan?"
