Chapter 424: 424. The True Appearance of the Sheepskin Scroll

424. Chapter 424: The True Appearance of the Sheepskin Scroll

That book was suspended above the stone pillar platform, and at this moment, as if sensing Su Chen's arrival, it was trembling uneasily up and down.

Su Chen took a deep breath and slowly walked in front of the book.

The book was emitting a faint fluorescent glow, yet there were no words on it, only some maps drawn with pictures, and a shining point of light on them.

Su Chen quickly discovered that this was a map of the Tianxuan Continent, and that point of light was precisely the Donghua Continent.

Donghua Continent... was the place where he was born; what kind of secret was hidden there? Su Chen tried to look for other traces, but he gained nothing.

For some reason, Su Chen's heart trembled inexplicably.

Driven by an inexplicable impulse, he took out the Sheepskin Scroll that Youji Nuhuang had given him from his Storage Ring.

He saw the Sheepskin Scroll suddenly break free from Su Chen's palm, float up, and tremblingly arrive in front of the book.

Immediately following this, a burst of dazzling, intense light appeared.

Su Chen subconsciously closed his eyes, and when the intense light completely vanished and he opened his eyes again, the book that had originally been suspended on the circular pillar platform had disappeared.

And at this moment, the Sheepskin Scroll, which had originally looked dilapidated, was now brand new.

What was depicted on the Sheepskin Scroll was a map.

It was just that the geographical locations on this map were also very different from the current Tianxuan Continent; when Su Chen looked at it just now, he could only roughly distinguish that the location on the map was the Donghua Continent.

It seems that this map is indeed a map of the Tianxuan Continent, but it is unknown where the specific location actually is.

What the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor gave to Youji Nuhuang was actually an incomplete, semi-finished map.

Now it seems that by a stroke of luck, the two have merged into one.

I am afraid the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor could never have imagined that the map he tried so hard to hide was only a semi-finished product, which he had brought to the Tianxuan Continent to prevent people in the Immortal World from discovering it.

Yet the true opportunity happened to be right here.

Su Chen's heart rippled; for some reason, he felt that the things on his person were all connected to it.

Just as he was stunned, the entire cave suddenly shook, the surrounding stone walls were suddenly pierced through, and seawater instantly surged inside, continuous and unending.

At the same time, the space of the entire cave also became distorted at this moment, as if it could no longer bear it, and it shattered with a boom.

After a bout of dizziness, when Su Chen opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the seabed; he looked around with a confused expression, as this was likely the seabed he had reached before.

It was just that because that barrier was no longer there, the seawater here was no different from the surroundings.

It seems that the book was the main source of the Secret Realm, and since the power in the book was taken away by the Sheepskin Scroll, the cave naturally collapsed.

But he had come out now, so where did the others go? As if to reflect what was in Su Chen's mind, a voice appeared.

"Su Chen!"

Su Chen turned around to look and only then saw that it was indeed Ziwei Xianzi and the other two.

The three of them hurried over, and only after seeing that Su Chen was unharmed did they set their minds at ease.

Tears of worry even welled up in Yi Zhuyue's eyes, and her eyelashes were still damp.

"You scared me to death. We were sucked into a whirlpool and were trapped in a place of nothingness. Everything around was static, and you weren't by my side. Later, I don't know what happened, but the space in that place shattered, and we came back."

When Yi Zhuyue said this, she still had lingering fears. One must know that when she worked under the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor, the dangers she experienced, even if not life-threatening, were still narrow escapes from death.

But at that time, it was pitch black all around, and with Su Chen not by her side, she was very afraid in her heart, terrified that something might have happened to Su Chen.

It was also at that moment that Yi Zhuyue discovered that she actually liked Su Chen.

Ziwei Xianzi and Youji Nuhuang did not say anything, but seeing that Su Chen was safe and sound, they were clearly relieved.

"It's alright. The spaces we were in must have been different. After I was sucked in, I saw a glowing book, and later, using the scroll Youji gave me, a map appeared, and then the space collapsed, and I came back."

Su Chen soothingly stroked Yi Zhuyue's head, his voice very gentle.

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhuyue finally felt at ease; she never expected that Su Chen had used this to unlock the secret of the Sheepskin Scroll.

"It's just that I vaguely flipped through ancient books and saw the location on this map; it should be near the Donghua Continent."

Su Chen, deciding to go all the way, took out the Sheepskin Scroll directly for everyone to examine.

Although the three of them roughly saw that this was the topography of the Donghua Continent, they were, after all, unfamiliar with the place, and for a moment, they really did not know where this actually was.

Helpless, the few of them could only return to the Barbarian Tribe first; as for what to do next, perhaps they would know after letting the knowledgeable Luo Shen take a look.

"Speaking of which, why did that whirlpool pull only you into a place of no one, while we were all in a place of nothingness?"

Along the way, Ziwei Xianzi could not help but voice her confusion.

"I could clearly feel just now that that space might have recognized a master; it is very likely... that there is something on Su Chen or within himself that attracts it."

Youji Nuhuang pondered for a moment and gave her objective opinion.

The few of them did not dwell on it too much; after returning to the Barbarian tribe, the other three took the Sheepskin Scroll to find Luo Shen.

As for Su Chen, he went to find Meng Huo.

However, it is worth noting that when the Sheepskin Scroll was in the hands of Youji Nuhuang and the others, its original radiance gradually became dim, and in the end, it became plain and unremarkable.

But fortunately, the image on it was still there, and it did not affect anything.

When Su Chen met Meng Huo, Meng Huo had clearly been waiting for a long time and walked up to Su Chen.

"Benefactor, you have come," Meng Huo said.

"Yes, Youji and I went to the Sea Clan. For these hundreds of thousands of years, the Barbarian Tribe and the Sea Clan have been at odds, fighting each other, and have always been in constant conflict. But in fact, the Nanman is so vast that we could try to coexist peacefully."

Su Chen stated his thoughts decisively, observing Meng Huo's expression as he spoke.

Meng Huo naturally knew the pain that war had brought them; if possible, he also wanted this damned war to end sooner.

"What the Benefactor says is not without reason. In fact, we also hope to be able to coexist harmoniously with those Sea Clans, but we are forced by survival. There are countless poisonous barriers in the forest, and even if we want to survive, it is very difficult. Added to that are the unique dry and rainy seasons, so we can only rely on the sea for a living."

Meng Huo sighed leisurely, his face full of helplessness.

Although the forest is rich in resources, the geographical location here is special. Even though it is very hot all year round, when the dry and rainy seasons arrive, there is almost no food at all, and even survival is very difficult.

Coupled with the countless wild beasts and misty poisonous barriers, with their cultivation strength, their situation is even more difficult. (End of chapter)
