After Qi Luo left, Chen Xuan chose to redeem the "True Thunder Soul-Forging Secret Art" on a night when the library was closed.
Very few people redeem this soul-based secret art, as tempering the soul with true thunder is an extremely dangerous undertaking. It places immense demands on both the practitioner's soul and their physical constitution. However, Chen Xuan redeemed it anyway, as it was the most premier soul-type secret art in the entire library. Several Creation Realm teachers had redeemed it in the past, only to fail in their attempts to master it.
Upon obtaining the secret art, Chen Xuan returned to his room, activated the restrictions, and brought the manual into the Eightfold Pagoda. The moment he reached the second level, Chen Xuan first filled the master swordsmith Yang Zhu in on the events of the day.
