Bai Xian and the billion’s true form turned out to be the first and the last page of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, which truly surprised Li Cheng.
At that moment, Bai Xian transformed into his true form, opened a spatial passage, its destination unknown.
“Senior Bai, there are one hundred and eight pages to the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, surely not every page has taken form, right?” Li Cheng asked curiously.
“Of course not, an accident occurred back then, I and the last page left the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, and took form separately, but we both can sense the location of the Heavenly book, and with my strength, I can easily open a passage, leading directly to the book.”
“However, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture is not so easily obtained, if Daoist Li is unable to take it, then you can only contemplate it in that place.”
Li Cheng guessed that Bai Xian did not wish to reveal the location of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, but he did not oppose Li Cheng taking it away. The premise is Li Cheng can take it away.
“Daoist Li, please go ahead, I can only maintain this for three days, if during this period you can’t take it with you, then wait until you have concluded your affairs before returning, when the time comes, I will allow you to contemplate within it for a hundred years, as agreed,” Bai Xian said again.
Through the spatial passage, Li Cheng saw darkness, and within the darkness, an ancient book emitting white light was extremely conspicuous.
“It really is the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, Li Cheng, hurry and see if you can take it!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s excited voice transmission rang out.
Li Cheng nodded and stepped into the spatial passage.
When he reached the end, he found himself about three feet from the Wordless Heavenly Scripture.
This range was precisely under the coverage of the white light from the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, and outside of this range, it was so dark one could not see their own hand before their face, and upon extending his Immortal Sense, all he could see was endless darkness!
“What place is this? It doesn’t suppress Immortal Sense but is full of darkness!” Li Cheng said, puzzled.
“Don’t know, but the Pen of Life and Death is responding!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
Li Cheng naturally noticed the anomaly of the Pen of Life and Death as well; its tip was pointing in a certain direction, without a doubt, towards where Emperor Qing was!
Not only that, but the Fire Mysterious Realm was also responding, pointing in the same direction as the pen’s tip.
This place is strange, the other half of the Fire Mysterious Realm is here too!”
“But it’s too oppressive, if it weren’t for the light from the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, I suspect that if one were to stay here for a while, their will would be destroyed by the darkness!”
Li Cheng frowned, well aware that if he wanted to explore this place, he would need a higher cultivation and the help of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!
Even I have this feeling, this place must be enormously dangerous, you better try to take the Wordless Heavenly Scripture quickly, otherwise just leave it here for now and come back to explore after you have refined the Rising Yuan Immortal Pill to elevate your cultivation,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
Li Cheng nodded, reached out to grab the Wordless Heavenly Scripture.
The cover of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture had no words, and it felt smooth to the touch, but when Li Cheng tried, he found he could not move it an inch!
Blood drops to recognize ownership, Soul Seals, and other methods were all tried by Li Cheng, but still there was no reaction.
On the contrary, with each attempt, there seemed to be a pair of eyes in the darkness staring at him, sending shivers down his spine!
This feeling, once emerged, could not be shaken off.
Li Cheng’s eyebrows were tightly knit, as inside his Immortal Sense was darkness and still more darkness, with nothing else to be found.
This made one’s heart feel even more uneasy.
“Senior, I vaguely feel it’s necessary to comprehend the Wordless Heavenly Scripture in order to take it with me, but… there is an inexplicable danger in the darkness,” Li Cheng communicated through voice transmission.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s voice sounded somewhat solemn, “Retreat first, do not come here unless you’ve reached the Immortal Emperor Realm!”
Li Cheng nodded, it seemed Immortal Emperor Tianyuan had discovered something.
Without hesitation, Li Cheng quickly returned along the spatial passage.
Upon exiting the passage, Bai Xian transformed back into human form and asked with a puzzled expression, “What happened? You don’t look very well.”
Li Cheng let out a slight sigh of relief, “What exactly is that place?”
Bai Xian shook his head, “It’s not that I am unwilling to tell you, but that I also do not know.”
Li Cheng raised an eyebrow, silent for a few seconds, then said, “I plan to return there after some years.”
“You are welcome at any time,” Bai Xian nodded.
Where is the location of that most mysterious book you mentioned?” Li Cheng asked.
This was indeed the matter of greatest concern to Li Cheng.
After all, it was the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!
Bai Xian smiled, “It was also there just now, there’s a subtle connection between the Ten Great Strange Books, which is why I can sense it.”
Li Cheng raised his eyebrows again, What on earth was that place?
The Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, the Pen of Life and Death’s guidance, the other half of the Fire Mysterious Realm, they’re all there!
With his current strength, he was simply incapable of exploring it!
Those unknown dangers seemed as though they could take his life at any moment.
“Li Cheng, did you notice anything about the space-time there just now?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan suddenly transmitted his voice to ask.
Li Cheng shook his head, “Space-time was normal, did senior discover something?”
“Just a conjecture, not yet mature, never mind, once your cultivation is higher, you’ll naturally have nothing to fear, stop thinking about it. The urgent priority is to cultivate, perhaps, you can also seek the inheritance of the Space-Time Divine Ancestor,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
Li Cheng nodded, in these three months’ time, entering the Immortal Palace was nearly two hundred years, enough to step into the Immortal King realm.
“Li Cheng, I’ve come to disturb you during my idle time!”
At this moment, the voice of Gu Sanqiu came from outside the other courtyard.
“Then I’ll take my leave first, I should return to the sect. I’ll come back another day,” Bai Xian said.
Li Cheng nodded, saw Bai Xian out of the hall, and headed towards the outside of the courtyard, “League Master Gu, please come in!”
That’s not the right way to address me. You’re someone who might take over the position of alliance hierarch at any moment. We are both league masters, you should call me brother!” Gu Sanqiu said with a grin, stepping forward.
If it were someone else, Gu Sanqiu would definitely take the chance to act senior and perhaps even demand the person to become his disciple, taking advantage of being an elder.
But Li Cheng was different; his Alchemy Dao achievements were too horrifying, and Gu Sanqiu simply couldn’t compare, so he could only make do by affectionately assuming the role of a brother instead, which was better!
Li Cheng smiled and bowed his hands, “Brother Gu!”
Gu Sanqiu was overjoyed, “Haha, worthy brother, I’ve brought Drunk Immortal Brew, come try it!”
Two days later, a drunken Gu Sanqiu left, causing Li Cheng to be stunned.
The Drunk Immortal Brew lived up to its name; even the Perfect Immortal Emperor Gu Sanqiu was drunk.
Li Cheng wasn’t drunk, not because he had a good tolerance, but because he didn’t want to be drunk. By simply activating the Rule of Fire and the Thunder law, the potency of the Drunk Immortal Brew was refined away.
Gu Sanqiu, he probably came to drown his sorrows.
No sooner had he left, than Vice Alliance Leader Lin arrived!
What Li Cheng didn’t expect was that he, too, brought Drunk Immortal Brew with him!
Li Cheng secretly marveled; did all the high-ranking officials of the Pill League want to drown their sorrows?
Young Master Li, I have offended you before the major event, Lin is here to apologize!” As he entered, Lin Zuo raised the Drunk Immortal Brew in his hand, then bowed.
Li Cheng clasped his fists, feeling puzzled within. Vice Alliance Leader Lin had targeted him before, so why was he apologizing now?
Seeing Li Cheng’s silence, Lin Zuo took out a painting scroll and said with a smile, “Young Master Li, this is a Confucian treasure I obtained many years ago. Seeing your scholarly elegance, I find you quite suited to this treasure, so I’m specially offering it to you!”
Li Cheng could sense the immense Haoran Air contained within the painting scroll; it was indeed a Confucian treasure.
Receiving the scroll, Li Cheng slowly unfurled it. Instantly, the laws of heaven and earth became incredibly active, as powers of various attributes surged forth.
In the hall, night fell in an instant, and lamps lit up all around. Under the illumination of the lights, an ancient city stood majestically, with a river flowing through its center, seemingly eternal.
“Is this… the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map?” Li Cheng’s brow quirked up.
