Chapter 1433: Six Together as One! (2/2)
”Young Master, for you! With this map from the Righteous Alliance, all six should be gathered. We should be able to find the location of the Origin Immortal Lord's treasury!”
The Black Yin Ancestor tossed the treasure map with little delay over to Wang Chong.
”It really was with him!”
Wang Chong smiled as he drew the treasure map into his palm.
In the end, the person that understood one the most was one's enemy. This saying had been proved today.
The Black Yin Ancestor had fought with Song Yuanyi for so many years that he had developed an extremely deep understanding of him, even knowing that Song Yuanyi was concealing a treasure map.
Of course, if Wang Chong had tried to do all this alone, it would have been very difficult for him to gather the six map pieces in such a short amount of time.
”There's no need to test it by itself. We'll learn if it's real by doing them all at once.”
With a shake of his robe, he brought the other five map pieces out of his sleeve.
Swish! With his Stellar Energy, Wang Chong laid the first map piece on the ground, then the second, third, fourth, fifth… They were each laid down according to an order determined earlier.
The world fell silent as everyone waited with bated breath, their expressions agitated and their eyes focused on Wang Chong and the final map in his hand.
Even Eastern Turkic King Bagushidu, hidden far away on a distant summit, had turned to look.
”It's time for the final piece.”
Bagushidu's eyes burned with passion. Although he had given Wang Chong the fifth map piece, no one could be certain that the map would actually lead to the Origin Immortal Treasury.
Farther away, a pair of bright eyes was also observing everything. Whether it was Wang Chong or Song Yuanyi, nothing in the northwest could escape these eyes.
At this moment, Wang Chong had become the undisputed center of the northwest, the nexus of attention.
Buzz!
Finally, the last map piece, covered in Stellar Energy, was placed into the gap.
As this final piece was put in place, the treasure map was finally complete.
The map was two feet long and three feet wide.
Wang Chong suspended the Energy Condensation Pearl over it, and a moment later, a beam of light shone onto the map. All six map pieces began to shine with silver threads that reflected white starry points of light.
”Real, it's real! The treasure map is real!”
”Look at that! An image has appeared on the map! We're really going to find out where the Origin Immortal Treasury is located!”
Everyone was excited to see the new map created by the silver threads. Even the Black Yin Ancestor found it hard to keep his composure. Greed, joy, madness… various emotions flitted through his eyes. If even the Black Yin Ancestor was in such a state, one could only imagine what the others were like.
Wang Chong looked at the treasure map and inwardly muttered, It really appeared. To think that the world's number one art will really appear before me!
This miraculous art was extremely elusive and had never once appeared in his last life. No one knew where it was hidden, not even at the very end. Many people believed that this art had been completely lost.
But with his intervention, history had changed.
”Congratulations to user on finding a clue to the world's number one art. For interacting with a hidden Riddle of Destiny, you have been rewarded 10000 points of Destiny Energy!”
The Stone of Destiny's voice rang out in Wang Chong's mind.
This voice took Wang Chong by great surprise. The Stone of Destiny had never indicated that there was such a mission before.
Could it be a side mission? Wang Chong wondered in shock. But side missions rarely rewarded this much, and why was this mission to search for the world's number one art related to the Riddle of Destiny?
Wang Chong was left deeply perplexed.
This incidental expedition to the northwest seemed to be connected to some secret that he was not aware of.
But there was no time to ponder this, as the bringing together of the six map pieces was leading to a completely new development.
Now that all the silver threads had been revealed, a star map made of countless bright lights appeared above the treasure map.
”Look over there!” a martial artist suddenly shouted, pointing at a particularly large star on the star map. ”The place indicated by this star must be where the Origin Immortal Lord's treasury is!”
”Who knows astronomy?” several people began to shout.
Identifying stars was one thing, but proficiency in astronomy was another thing entirely. The majority of the martial arts world was immersed in martial arts; just how many people actually studied astronomy?
”North-northwest!” a voice suddenly declared. ”If starting from this place, it's around six thousand, eight hundred steps away!”
Although he was far weaker than the likes of martial arts titans like Song Yuanyi, when it came to knowledge of the heavens and the earth, there was probably no one here that could compare to the Formation Elder.
”Let's go!”
The Formation Elder had barely finished speaking when the air began to howl.
The martial artists at the very back of the crowd had immediately shot into the air, heading in the direction indicated by the Formation Elder.
