429. Chapter 429: Master, Lv Luo will always be behind you

Yi Zhuyue and the other two were the most familiar with these things; the moment they saw them, their expressions changed drastically.

Originally, what Su Chen said sounded very mysterious, and they still harbored some doubts in their hearts, but now that they saw it, they were completely speechless.

"By the way, has Luo Shen looked at the previous Sheepskin Scroll, and did she find anything?"

Su Chen seemed not to notice their surprise and shifted his gaze to Luo Shen.

Being called by name, Luo Shen immediately steadied her mind and said.

"The place on that map is indeed the Ancient Donghua Continent, but it is too broad; it can only be confirmed to be in the Donghua Continent. Now that I see this compass, perhaps... we can use it to find where the location is."

Originally, while in the Shengdi, that compass seemed to have lost its direction and spun crazily without stopping; ever since leaving there, the compass had been pointing straight in the direction of the Donghua Continent.

It looked like if they wanted to find that place, they would definitely have to rely on the compass.

"That's right, I estimate the compass is the thing that will guide our direction, but that place must be fraught with danger; otherwise, it wouldn't require so much trouble."

Ziwei Xianzi also spoke up at this moment.

"When the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor gave us these things, it must have been because he hadn't figured out the mysteries within, and not wanting others to discover them, he simply brought them all here. I just didn't expect that we would accidentally discover the secret within."

Yi Zhuyue paused and then continued.

"Even things the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor couldn't figure out must be extremely dangerous. Moreover, most of our journey so far has had to do with the Dragon Great Emperor, as if... we were being pushed along."

Lv Luo looked at Su Chen with worry.

Now, the Dragon Great Emperor has already fallen. Although the reason is unknown, such a powerful Dragon Great Emperor was buried here, so one can imagine how dangerous it is.

Even though Yi Zhuyue and the others have reached the Half-step Great Emperor realm, this trip will likely be extremely dangerous.

Su Chen is currently only in the mere Great Saint Realm; if he goes there, it will likely be a narrow escape from death.

"Otherwise... let's not go for now. Anyway, only the few of us know about it; it won't be too late to go once we are stronger."

Natasha looked at Su Chen with a worried face, trying to persuade him.

If something were to happen to Su Chen, Natasha couldn't even imagine how she would live on.

"Although that is true, the Tianxuan Continent is full of hidden talents; if someone else discovers it first, it will be too late when we go later."

Xiaoxian did not think so; risks and opportunities have always coexisted.

"Moreover, it is better to deal with this matter as soon as possible. If it is discovered later, it is very likely to be targeted by others. By then, open enemies are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are hard to guard against..."

Speaking of this, Xiaoxian cast her gaze on Su Chen.

It was useless for them to discuss it until they were blue in the face; the final decision still rested with Su Chen, and as for the specifics, they still had to wait for Su Chen to decide.

"The characters on that Jade Letter are mostly from the ancient tribes. Many have been lost in current records, but I can roughly distinguish that this is a prophecy."

As soon as Luo Shen's words came out, everyone turned their eyes to her.

Although Ziwei Xianzi and Youji Nuhuang were also very intelligent, and could even be said to be no less than Luo Shen, they were not natives of the Tianxuan Continent after all, and in many aspects, they did not understand as much as Luo Shen.

"You mean..."

Su Chen looked at Luo Shen thoughtfully.

"Based on the characters I can recognize, the general meaning is that a secret is hidden within the Ancient Tomb, a secret that can overturn the world." Luo Shen's voice was soft, but her words were like heavy stones, smashing heavily into the hearts of the few.

One must know that even though the Tianxuan Continent is only one plane among many small worlds, it has its own self-contained laws.

This is why when Yi Zhuyue and the others came here, their cultivation was forcibly suppressed to the Half-step Great Emperor realm.

Even if the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor came here in person, he still could not escape the constraints of the world's laws.

This is also why the cautious Heavenly Dao Great Emperor did not descend into this plane himself, but sent his subordinates instead.

And now, this prophecy actually says that a secret capable of overturning the entire world is hidden within the Ancient Tomb.

Thinking of this, the expressions on their faces were very solemn; no one spoke, and the atmosphere fell into a state of anxiety for a time.

"Since it concerns me, I must go and see."

Finally, Su Chen made his decision.

"Don't you all say I am the reincarnation of the Dragon Great Emperor? Being timid and shrinking back, what kind of Dragon Great Emperor is that? Besides, I don't believe the Dragon Great Emperor would harm me."

Su Chen feigned a relaxed smile, looking like a reckless youth, and even showed a comforting smile when the others looked worried.

It now appears that the Ancient Tomb indeed has a great deal to do with the Dragon Great Emperor.

But the Dragon Great Emperor has been fallen for a long time, and no one knows whether the Ancient Tomb holds the truth of what caused the Dragon Great Emperor's fall, or the precious opportunities left behind by the Dragon Great Emperor.

Luo Shen thought so and said so as well; regarding such matters, she still hoped Su Chen would think carefully before making a decision, and not be so rash.

Hearing this, Su Chen instead laughed softly.

"Whether it is an opportunity left by the Dragon Great Emperor or the reason for his fall, I must go. If it is an opportunity, it can just happen to become a help to me; if it is the reason..."

Su Chen paused, his gaze falling on everyone present, scanning them all before withdrawing his gaze.

"Then I must go even more. Bumping around like a headless fly is really uncomfortable. I, Su Chen, would rather die with a weight heavier than Mount Tai than lighter than a feather."

Su Chen spoke with sonorous force, his eyes gradually becoming firm. "Indeed, one can survive as long as one doesn't face it, but what is the point of being a coward forever? It would be better to just die."

Everyone's pursuits are different; some people just want to survive, want to live safely and securely, and be a fool for a lifetime.

But Su Chen is different; in order to pursue the so-called beliefs in his heart, he can burn his own life.

This is the difference between Su Chen and most ordinary people.

Seeing that Su Chen's mind was made up, the others no longer tried to persuade him, as they understood Su Chen's character; once he made up his mind, he wouldn't turn back even if he hit a stone wall.

Luo Shen sighed, and in the end, she didn't say anything more: "Since that's the case, let's pack up and return to the Donghua Continent."

Luo Shen was also agreeing with Su Chen's idea.

"But..."

Lv Luo originally wanted to persuade him again, but seeing Su Chen's eyes, she swallowed the words she wanted to say.

"No matter what, Master, Lv Luo will always be behind you!" Lv Luo said with firm eyes. (End of chapter)
