Following the slight movement of the Blue Fire on Lin Cheng's fingertip, the patterns and words on the Cattlehide Roll quickly appeared. When the Cattlehide Roll was fully covered with patterns, Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao finally saw it clearly.
On the back of the Cattlehide Roll was really a map!
Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.
The map left behind by the cultivator, without a doubt, no matter where this map pointed to, just this map alone had great value.
Moreover, with such a rigorous and subtle way of drawing the map, they were almost certain that the map pointed to something extraordinary.
Perhaps, it was nothing to those cultivator experts, but to Junior Cultivating Warrior, who hadn't even broken through to the Core Sea Stage, what the map pointed to was definitely not an ordinary thing!
"Now I finally understand why such a Cattlehide Roll must be kept in such a high grade jade box. It turns out that Senior cultivator didn't want to keep the cultivation technique, but this map!"
Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but say, "The Cattlehide Roll can be preserved for a very long time, but this map might not be. Especially if this special technique is inscribed on it, if it is not properly preserved... I'm afraid that it won't take long before this map disappears. "
Lin Cheng nodded in agreement. Indeed, if it was for the sake of preserving the cultivation technique... The cultivation technique could be copied on any piece of paper, and with the material of the Cattlehide Roll... After that cultivator was refined using a special technique, it could be preserved for hundreds or even thousands of years without rotting.
In this way, whether or not the Cattlehide Roll was placed in a jade box, whether or not the material of the jade box was high quality was not that important.
What that cultivator truly wanted to protect was the map that was inscribed on the back of the Cattlehide Roll using a special method.
"Since even a cultivator attaches so much importance to it, then the things recorded on the map must be extraordinary." Lin Cheng's gaze once again fell on the Cattlehide Roll, and he stared at the map carefully.
"But there is no indication of what it is on this map. Little thief, do you think this is the dangerous place that Senior cultivator marked?" Zhu Ziqiao said with some doubt.
"It shouldn't be!"
Lin Cheng shook his head slightly and said, "If it is a dangerous place, there is no need to label it like this. We don't even need to draw it on a map. We just need to know that a certain direction is very dangerous. Try to avoid it as much as possible. Furthermore, the cultivator's memory was not something that an ordinary Cultivating Warrior could compare with. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to draw a map."
At this point, he pondered and said, "I guess that senior cultivator might have discovered something somewhere back then. However, for some reason, he was unable to take it away. For example, he was seriously injured. Perhaps he used this special method to engrave it on the map so that his enemies would not notice it. He also disguised it as a cultivation technique. "
Zhu Ziqiao could not help but ask curiously," Unfortunately, the map did not specify what it is. Little thief, guess what it is? "
Lin Cheng shook his head and smiled," How could I guess? However, the topography on the map seems familiar to me. "
"Oh?"
Zhu Ziqiao was stunned and then said, "Maybe you have been to a place before. Little thief, take a closer look and see if you can recognize it!"
Lin Cheng stared at the map and frowned slightly. The terrain marked on the map was indeed familiar to him, as if he had been there before. However, after thinking about it carefully, he could not find any clues.
"Eh?"
Suddenly, Lin Cheng's eyes focused. He saw two small characters on the map - Star Luo!
"Little thief, what did you find?" Zhu Ziqiao saw the change in Lin Cheng's expression and couldn't help but ask.
"The city marked on the map is where I came from!" Lin Cheng couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He turned his head and looked at Zhu Ziqiao. "Girl, the city marked on the map is the Stellar Country of Dongzhou. I came from Stellar Country!"
Zhu Ziqiao heard this and could not help but be surprised. She immediately said happily, "Such a coincidence? Little thief, it seems that you are really fated. This map had been in Wen Zhongming's hands for so many years, but he had not found anything. Now, not only have we found the map, but you also came from there... The thing that this map refers to is fated to be with you!"
Lin Cheng waved his hand and smiled." This is only a coincidence. Besides, the thing on the map may not be a treasure. There might be danger. Luck and misfortune are still unknown! "
Zhu Ziqiao hesitated for a moment and asked," Little thief. Then should we... go?"
Lin Cheng pondered for a moment before he raised his head and said, "Little girl, the path of cultivation is risky, so I plan to go and take a look. Even if I encounter danger, there is nothing to regret!"
"I will go with you!"
As soon as Lin Cheng finished speaking, Zhu Ziqiao blurted out without any hesitation.
"Okay."
Lin Cheng looked at her and smiled.
If possible, Lin Cheng would rather take Zhu Ziqiao with him and live a leisurely life in a quiet place.
But unfortunately, he could not do it now.
Because there were some things he had to do... At least, he would never be able to remain indifferent and pretend not to know that Zuo Mu was still alive.
Being betrayed by the person he trusted the most, or even forced to die together with him, unless he killed Zuo Mu with his own hands, the anger and hatred in Lin Cheng's heart would never dissipate.
However, it was easier said than done to kill Zuo Mu.
Putting aside the fact that after a hundred years, Zuo Mu, who had a pretty good talent, had consumed the Marrow-washing Pill, as an elder of the Myriad Sword Sect, how powerful would his strength be? He was afraid that a single word from him would be enough to make him have no chance to escape.
In fact, even if he was lucky enough to escape, there wouldn't be a place for him in this huge Dongzhou!
However, with his current strength, it was even more difficult for him to cross the Prefecture Boundary and leave the Dongzhou than obtaining the Blue Fire. It was almost impossible for him to do so!
Therefore, the only way now was to grab any opportunity to increase his strength with all his might.
Strength!
Strength!
Only a powerful Cultivation Level could make him unafraid of the suffocating threat of the Myriad Sword Sect. Only then would he have the chance to kill this ungrateful bastard, Zuo Mu, with his own hands!
Therefore, even though he still didn't know the map on the Cattlehide Roll and what it was referring to, Lin Cheng didn't want to miss it.
Of course, sometimes Lin Cheng would have some regrets. Since he had been reborn... Why didn't he be reborn into a big sect? If that was the case... Countless people dreamt of cultivating cultivation techniques, pill, and other resources. He would be able to obtain them easily. Why would he need to put in all his effort just to obtain some cultivation resources?
However, this thought only flashed across his mind for a brief moment before disappearing without a trace.
If the heavens could allow him to be reborn once, then that was already enough. If he were to ask for more, he would suffer the wrath of the heavens!
Without resources, he would fight and explore. He would go to a dangerous place where no one dared to go. There would definitely be countless Heaven-earth Treasure there.
Just like the Boundless Forbidden Land in Boundless Forest, there were not only Blue Fire there. Lin Cheng was almost certain that there was also that freezing pond. Otherwise, it would be impossible to resist the heat of the Blue Fire!
If there was no cultivation technique, then he would think of a way to find it. There would always be a chance of survival ahead!
This path was destined to be very difficult, but looking at those powerful beings with great achievements, most of them started from a mere Junior Cultivating Warrior. In the end, their names would shake the world.
Lin Cheng believed that although he couldn't compare to those senior experts, at least, he wouldn't be any worse than Zuo Mu.
"One day, I will slaughter my way into the Myriad Sword Sect and kill you with my own hands!" Lin Cheng looked in the direction of the Myriad Sword Sect with a determined look in his eyes.
Time passed quietly. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
On this day, on the narrow path, two riders were passing by at a moderate pace. Two people were sitting on their horses. They were Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao.
"Little thief, according to the people at the station, we shouldn't be too far away from Stellar Country, right?" Zhu Ziqiao asked.
"Oh! Not far ahead should be the Stellar Country. In about six or seven days, we will be able to reach the Dongluo City. " After carefully examining it, he nodded and said.
"I wonder if the people from the Lin Family will regret what they have done to you when they see you and realize that you are already a Ninth Level of Chakra Stage expert!" Zhu Ziqiao wrinkled her nose and snorted.
On the way here, Lin Cheng told her about his background and what he had encountered in the Stellar Country. Of course, he didn't mention that he was the reincarnation of Pill King and Lin Cheng. Even so, Zhu Ziqiao wasn't happy about it.2
Especially when she heard that Lin Cheng had been treated in the Lin Family and was secretly killed by someone, or even hunted down, Zhu Ziqiao was very angry. She wished she could kill Tan Yulan and her son with a single strike of her sword.
Lin Cheng shook his head and said with a smile, "I have never been interested in what they will think. However, there is an old friend of mine in Dongluo City. After entering the city, I have to pay him a visit."
Lin Cheng had never thought of the location indicated on the map. It was actually Stellar Country. To be precise, the starting point of this map. The Stellar Country was located hundreds of miles away from the Stellar Country in the Daluo Mountain Range.
Although he came from the Stellar Country near the Daluo Mountain Range, Lin Cheng wasn't very familiar with the Daluo Mountain Range. This body's previous self had been to the Daluo Mountain Range before, so when Lin Cheng saw the map, it was only because of this that he felt that the map was somewhat familiar.
Therefore, Lin Cheng decided to follow the route marked on the map and head towards the Stellar Country.
The nearest route to the Stellar Country from the Cicheng was to pass by the Dongluo City, which was the place where his reborn body was located.
