Most workshop bookstores that sell books of skills follow these rules: a thick book allows browsing of the first three pages, a medium book two pages, and a thin book one page.
Every book is enchanted with a forbidden technique that prevents people from seeing the pages beyond; if an attempt is made to snatch it, the book can even destroy itself.
However, stealing books of skills is such a foolish act that neither demons nor cultivators would do it, as it would be a direct provocation to the big powers behind the workshops and tantamount to seeking death.
These are just the stall rules. If you are in a guaranteed shop, you're not even allowed to flip through a single page; the shopkeeper will have prepared an introduction to the book instead.
Tao Qian had originally hoped to enjoy the Cultivation Sword Technique, but as soon as he activated his perception, he couldn't help but be startled.
A throbbing sensation?
