Chapter 710

"If this sea chart is true, then there is no doubt that these three fairy mountains truly exist. Of course, whether they are true fairy mountains or ordinary islands, I cannot say clearly."

"I am even less clear about whether there are pearls and jade that do not wither or the elixir of life on them. However, judging from the location pointed to by the sea chart, it should not be far."

Su Xuan answered Seeing Ying Zheng's question.

Seeing Ying Zheng nodded, "That is to say, one only needs to follow this sea chart to find the location of the treasure of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon? I am somewhat looking forward to the day when the treasure of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon is found!"

"I know that many remnants of the Six States, as well as many people of fallen nations, because of their dissatisfaction with reality, have pinned their hopes on the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, hoping to use this object to restore their nations. Since they pin their hopes on this illusory object, then I will let them understand that my Qin Guo can unify the world and can also find the treasure of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon."

"Heaven's mandate is with Qin!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's words carried deep confidence.

He had actually never taken the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon seriously, nor did he believe that a mere treasure could affect the general trend of the world. Even, he once thought that the so-called Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon was just a scam.

The reason why Seeing Ying Zheng thought so was because the strength of the Qin Guo had never relied on the so-called Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon. Even though the Qin Guo did possess a bronze box, they had never tried to crack the secret of this object over the years.

However, since Su Xuan had already gathered the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon and had even cracked the secret of the seven bronze boxes, obtaining the sea chart hidden within.

Seeing Ying Zheng couldn't help but develop some interest.

"State Preceptor, what is needed to find the islands pointed to on this sea chart?" Seeing Ying Zheng asked Su Xuan again.

Su Xuan replied: "It does indeed require some things. First, this map is a sea chart, which means the fairy mountains are hidden on the sea, and it is even possible that they are in the depths of the ocean. If you want to find the location of the fairy mountains, you must first build a large ship capable of crossing the vast ocean!"

"I will arrange this matter!" Seeing Ying Zheng made a decision with one sentence.

Even if he had not taken the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon seriously in the past, now that Su Xuan had cracked the mystery of this object, it was reasonable and appropriate to search for it.

This is not only because this treasure has been circulating in the world for a long time, but also because this matter has political significance and can be used to cut off the delusions in the hearts of some remnants of the Six States.

"Besides this, if you want to find the location of the fairy mountains, I am afraid you will need some other things." Su Xuan spoke again.

"What things?"

"The divine tree Fusang served by the Shushan clan!"

"The Shushan clan?" Seeing Ying Zheng was hearing about this clan for the first time and was somewhat puzzled.

Su Xuan immediately explained to Seeing Ying Zheng: "The Shushan clan has a very long heritage, which can be traced back to the ancient era, the Jiuli tribe of the Did Chi You era. After Did Chi You was defeated, the Jiuli merged into the Yan-Huang clan, but a portion of the people still carried the heritage of the Jiuli and went far away. They went to the Shu region, which was isolated from the Central Plains, and multiplied there until today!"

"This clan is good at witchcraft and serves the Fusang divine tree. It is said that under their tribal land, there is also the forbidden area of Yuyuan. The Fusang divine tree stands on the peak of Shushan, forever guarding Yuyuan. The many people who serve the divine tree are called Yuyuan Guards!"

The Yin-Yang School had obtained a lot of heritage from Shushan back then, so the Yin-Yang School was quite knowledgeable about the origin of this clan. Su Xuan immediately recounted their origin.

"I didn't expect that such an ancient tribe was hidden in the Shu region!"

Seeing Ying Zheng sighed softly.

Since the ancient era, because of the geographical environment, the Shu region had never communicated with the Central Plains. Its culture and customs were completely different from those of the Central Plains. It was not until later that Leizu went out of Xiling that the Shu region gradually had some contact with the Central Plains. But this contact was not frequent. Later, until the reign of King Huiwen of Qin, the Qin Guo used a lot of manpower and material resources to completely open up the passage to Ba-Shu, destroyed the State of Shu, and the Shu region became the backyard of the Qin Guo, and the contact between the Central Plains and the Shu region gradually became more frequent.

It can be said that the Qin Guo's destruction of the Six States played a crucial role in the Ba-Shu region.

Besides the wealthy merchants like Widow Qing in the Ba-Shu region working for the Qin Guo, that place was also a natural granary. Before the completion of the Zheng Guoqu in the Qin Guo, it was the main grain-producing area of the Qin Guo.

It was also because of the continuous supply of grain produced there that the Qin Guo had the ability to support a large army and launch many wars.

He thought that after the Qin Guo occupied Ba-Shu, the secrets there had all been explored by the Qin Guo. He did not expect that in those vast mountains, there was still a tribe named Shushan hidden.

After unifying the world, although Seeing Ying Zheng was determined to expand outward and conquer Baiyue, the Xiongnu, and other places, because the Qin Guo had just unified, the domestic situation was not yet stable, and it was not yet time for external expansion.

Before this, Seeing Ying Zheng did not mind finding the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon first.

Although the Qin Guo had already unified the world, there were inevitably many remnants of the Six States who were unwilling. If the Qin Guo could obtain the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, it would be proof that the Qin Guo was the one destined by heaven.

Just as Seeing Ying Zheng said earlier, "Heaven's mandate is with Qin!"

"According to the State Preceptor, the Fusang divine tree is a sacred object served by the Shushan clan for generations. Even if it is an important object for finding the fairy mountains overseas, the Shushan tribe will presumably not hand over this tree easily."

Seeing Ying Zheng was very smart and grasped the pros and cons the first moment.

"Do you need me to use the army to destroy Shushan?"

After hearing Seeing Ying Zheng's suggestion, Su Xuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said: "I will try to reason with the Shushan clan first. If reasoning really doesn't work, in order to find the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, I can only sacrifice them!"

In the end, Su Xuan had no grudge against Shushan.

Although using the army to destroy Shushan and seize the divine tree guarded by the Shushan clan without any reason seemed very unreasonable, and the Shushan clan was somewhat innocent and suffered an unprovoked disaster.

But this is reality.

The law of the jungle is the law of heaven!

Who told the Shushan clan to be weak and lack the power to protect the divine tree Fusang?

Of course, because Su Xuan did not want to resort to force unnecessarily, he decided to reason with the Shushan clan first.

If the Shushan clan really did not want to listen to his reasoning, then he could only take ruthless action against Shushan.
