Chapter 348

After giving the Sui Hou Pearl to Lady Dongjun Yanfei as a gift, Su Xuan finally had time to study the box that had contained it.

It must be said that King King Kaolie of Chu's move was beyond everyone's expectations.

He had hidden the secret inside the box, and when everyone's eyes were on the Sui Hou Pearl, they would naturally ignore the box that contained it.

In the original story, Lord Lord Changping also used this trick.

He hid the map of Dongjun inside the box containing a night-luminescent pearl; ordinary people only thought the night-luminescent pearl was worth a fortune, not knowing that the real secret was in the box.

The box containing the Sui Hou Pearl did not know who had made it, but it was incredibly ingenious. However, for Su Xuan, cracking its mechanism was not a difficult task.

Even without the things Lord Lord Changping had told him, he would have been enough to crack the mechanism himself.

After fiddling with it a few times, the bottom of the box suddenly split open.

A map fell out from it.

Su Xuan picked up the map and looked at it carefully.

In his heart, he could not help but praise Lord Lord Changping's father, King King Kaolie of Chu.

The secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon was widely circulated in the world and had always been known only to the royal families of various states, but even as a member of the royal family, not everyone was qualified to know this secret.

King King Kaolie of Chu naturally knew it.

But he did not tell this secret to his son, the current King of Chu.

Instead, he told it to his son, Lord Lord Changping, who was hidden in the State of Qin.

There was naturally deep meaning in this.

King King Kaolie of Chu had stayed in the State of Qin for many years. During his reign, the State of Chu had participated in several joint attacks on Qin by the five states. He knew better than anyone how powerful Qin was. If he had told the secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon to his son in Chu, Chu might not have been able to keep the secret.

But telling it to Xiong Qi in Qin was different.

Even if one day the State of Qin really destroyed the State of Chu, Xiong Qi held a high position in Qin and could find a way to keep the secret, allowing the secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon to continue.

Although King King Kaolie of Chu, like everyone else, did not really believe in the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon and did not think this thing could change the general trend of the world, if this secret could be preserved, perhaps it could give people some hope.

But even King King Kaolie of Chu had never expected that his eldest son, Lord Lord Changping, whom he had placed high hopes on and who held a high position in Qin, would one day betray this secret to Su Xuan for the sake of his daughter.

"The map is in hand; next, I just need to follow the map to retrieve the item, and it will be over!"

Su Xuan and Lady Dongjun Yanfei did not stay in Shouchun for too long.

After taking what he wanted, Su Xuan took her and left Shouchun, officially embarking on the road back to the State of Qin—no, strictly speaking, now that the State of Chu had been destroyed, this was already within the territory of Qin; it should be said it was the journey back to Xianyang.

As for Han Xin, Su Xuan temporarily left him in Wang Xuan Jian's army.

The opportunity had already been given to him; how far Han Xin could go in this life would depend on Han Xin himself.

After Su Xuan and Lady Dongjun Yanfei returned to Xianyang, not long after, the news of the destruction of the State of Chu spread throughout the world. In Xianyang, the monarchs and ministers of Qin were all waiting for the day Wang Xuan Jian would escort the Chu captives back to Xianyang.

Su Xuan did not have such expectations; after all, he had been to Shouchun himself and had seen those captives, so he really had little interest.

After returning to the Yin-Yang School, the first thing he did was prepare for seclusion.

On this trip to Chu, he had already obtained what he wanted, and even had some unexpected gains; it was time to digest and organize these things.

He first took out the insights obtained from the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book written by Donghuang Taiyi. After contemplating them, he gave them to Lady Dongjun Yanfei, and after she finished contemplating them, she was to send them to the Yin-Yang School's library.

Afterward, he took out the box of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon.

But this object was only one piece, and even if the Yin-Yang School hid the key to cracking the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, the "Magic Sound Treasure Box," one could not figure anything out with only one box.

After putting this object away.

Su Xuan took out the real heavyweight item—the "Yellow Stone Heavenly Book"!

This Heavenly Book came from the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden; it could be said that the reason this world was so different had an extremely important relationship with this Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden.

Did Chi You rose because of her, and Xuanyuan Huang Di was also able to defeat Did Chi You because of her.

Later, Gan Jiang Gan Jiang Taigong obtained the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book, realized the supreme art of war, and helped King Wu of Zhou defeat Zhou, establishing the Zhou Dynasty.

Chu Nan Gong realized five kinds of power from the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book and used their principles to construct the world.

Donghuang Taiyi realized the mystery of the Nine Palaces of the Divine Capital from it; the conception of the Nine Palaces of the Divine Capital surprised Su Xuan.

Now, this Heavenly Book had fallen into Su Xuan's hands, and Su Xuan naturally had to contemplate it carefully.

Even though he possessed the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations and had initially realized the "Nine Breaths of Qi" among the Heavenly Dipper Daoist arts, this did not mean he would underestimate the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book. If the power he felt from the Heavenly Book was not lying, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden was likely a true immortal-level existence.

Things left behind by such a level of existence were worthy of Su Xuan's attention.

Slowly opening the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book.

The first thing that caught Su Xuan's eyes was a blank space.

The so-called blank space meant exactly what it said.

There was not a single word on the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book; it was a wordless Heavenly Book.

If an ordinary person obtained the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book, they would certainly think it was a blank bamboo slip and throw it away, but for a person with powerful strength, they would not think so; they had their own set of methods for contemplating the Heavenly Book.

The next moment, Su Xuan actively released his spiritual power and cast it into the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book.

As his spiritual power seeped into the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book.

Before his eyes, a colorful world suddenly appeared. This world was composed of various colors, looking chaotic, yet it seemed to contain everything.

This was the essence of the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book.

Whether you could realize something from it depended on your talent.

If your talent was insufficient, all you would see was chaos; conversely, if your talent was sufficient, you could realize all kinds of things from this chaos. The things realized could be supreme power, mysterious military tactics, or profound principles...

The Yellow Stone Heavenly Book in everyone's eyes was different.

So what was the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book in Su Xuan's eyes?

His spiritual power pierced through layers of flowing light, pierced through this chaotic world, and finally, saw a graceful and luxurious woman!
