C197 A treasure map!
C197 A treasure map!
Su Ye's words were simple, but the corner of Fu Zhongxuan's mouth twitched when he heard it. The difference of sixty thousand heavenly dew, how much cultivation resources would it take to repair it?
But when he thought about the value of the Wind Lightning Sword, Fu Zhongxuan was slightly moved, and said: "This is something that I can think about, I need to discuss it with the other elders before I can give you an accurate answer."
"Sure, that's not a problem."
Su Ye agreed readily, and then left in satisfaction.
The next day, the great sect competition continued.
There were only a hundred and five victors left in this round. In a two-to-two match, it was obvious that one of them would be left empty-handed. With a single draw, the empty spot was actually selected by Su Ye. This meant that Su Ye did not need to participate in this round's Large Competition.
This accident caused some people to be envious and jealous, but at the same time, they could not help but rejoice. Su Ye's empty round had allowed others to avoid Su Ye, so it could be considered a good thing.
In this round, however, an unexpected event occurred.
A young noble from a family who also came from Shengjing City met Meng Qiandu in advance in this round's round, and in the end, the most fierce battle between a dragon and a tiger unfolded. The two fought for almost two thousand moves, and only then did Meng Qiandu barely win in one move.
This battle made many people's blood boil with excitement. At the same time, they once again witnessed the terrifying power of the prodigies of Shengjing.
Su Ye drew an empty lot, so naturally he wouldn't stay in the competition grounds to watch the battle. He still chose to return to the 12th courtyard and silently meditate.
Under this continuous and continuous comprehension, Su Ye had a deeper understanding of the "True Self Reflection Chapter". It could be said that he had comprehended fifty to sixty percent of the entire text's profoundness, and Su Ye was confident that he would be able to comprehend the entire Buddhist Sect's cultivation technique thoroughly in a few more days.
In the evening, Fu Zhongxuan came again.
The Sixth Elder, Zhu Fenglei, was a tall and burly old man with a powerful aura. When she walked, she actually had the faint aura of wind and thunder rolling around him, as if her body was entangled with endless wind and thunder.
Expert!
This was definitely a very powerful expert, especially one with a deep understanding of the path of wind and thunder.
It was Su Ye's first time seeing Zhu Fenglei. Regarding his arrival, he had a faint guess in his heart that he was here for the Wind Lightning Sword.
Sure enough, without any formalities, Zhu Feng Lei went straight to the point and directly suggested that she use a treasure map to cover up the difference of sixty thousand heavenly dew and let Su Ye transfer the Thunder Wind Sword to the Artifact Hall.
Su Ye only needed a glance at the treasure map to know what kind of plan Zhu Fenglei had up her sleeve. This so-called treasure map was only the size of a palm. The edges were filled with irregular tearing marks, and on it was a map that was impossible to discern.
If one only looked at the material and appearance of this treasure map, they would be able to confirm that it had been here for quite some time. It was very likely that this map had been left behind by a master. However, it was not complete at all. It was only a fragment of a map. If one wanted to find the treasure with just this fragment, it was impossible unless one was lucky enough to break through the horizon.
This treasure map had clearly fallen into Zhu Feng Lei's hands for a long time, but she still couldn't find the treasure map. Zhu Feng Lei had already given up on this idea, and no longer held any hope of finding the treasure. She had only used it to offset the difference of sixty thousand drops of heavenly dew.
This was actually an empty glove white wolf's method.
With regards to Zhu Feng Lei's thoughts of wanting to obtain the Wind Lightning Sword but not truly willing to give it up, Su Ye was extremely disdainful. He would rather put the Wind Thunder Sword into her storage ring as a piece of trash than be fooled by others.
Su Ye unceremoniously wanted to reject his, and casually taunted his. But the moment his hand touched the map, the Gate of the Mystery actually let out a breath of relief. In the blink of an eye, he imprinted the map onto the Gate of the Mystery and a curtain of light appeared on the Gate of the Mystery.
The edge of the light curtain was pitch-black, with the map that was incomplete at the center. At the center, there was a bit of red light flashing, and as Su Ye's consciousness moved slightly, he could faintly feel that the little red light seemed to be guiding him.
Su Ye's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Gate of the Mystery could actually rely on the incomplete map to point out the specific location of this terrain? If that was the case, it would be rather interesting.
With this discovery, Su Ye suddenly changed his mind. He did not even finish his mocking words, and only chuckled lightly: "Elders, to be honest, this is only the difference of sixty thousand drops of heavenly dew, to me, it is nothing. "But with such a map fragment that's impossible to find, the two elders are starting to bully me … young …"
When Fu Zhongxuan heard this, he felt a little awkward. He subconsciously looked at Zhu Fenglei, as if to say, look, I'll tell you right now that this won't work, Su Ye isn't so easy to fool.
Zhu Fenglei, on the other hand, remained calm and collected, not the least bit embarrassed. She immediately said, "Su Ye, what you said is wrong. I'll tell you the truth, this treasure map was passed down from my ancestors. According to my ancestors, this treasure map is related to a very powerful secret realm. I know that I do not have that luck, but you are different. You have an extraordinary cultivation base at such a young age, so it can be seen how lucky you are.
Su Ye laughed to himself. You were right, I, as a young master, have a Gate of the Mystery, and the location indicated by the treasure map already has guidance. I'll be able to find that place after a while. But can I tell you that?
However, his hand casually returned the treasure map, "Elder Zhu, don't say it like that, I don't have such good luck. You should take the treasure map back."
Zhu Feng Lei still wanted to say something.
Fu Zhongxuan took the lead and said: "Enough, Elder Zhu, quickly put away your treasure map. It has already been decades, and you still haven't given up yet?"
Zhu Fenglei stared blankly at him, but she did not say anything else. Her face was filled with regret.
Su Ye was startled, "Wait, Elder Zhu, based on what you said, this is not the first time you have used this treasure map to exchange for benefits?"
Zhu Fenglei's face finally twitched, appearing somewhat embarrassed.
Fu Zhongxuan said as he helped her out, "Su Ye, to be honest, Elder Zhu is not bullying your age, he just can't see through it."
Fu Zhongxuan then explained the situation for Zhu Fenglei, and only then did Su Ye know. This treasure map had really been passed down from Zhu Fenglei's ancestors. Zhu Fenglei did not even know how many generations this treasure map had been passed down to him. She only knew that this treasure map was related to a secret realm and that she had found some extraordinary benefits.
However, the Zhu Family spent countless amounts of manpower and resources, yet they were unable to find the location indicated by the treasure map. This matter practically became the Zhu Family's obsession. Especially in the Zhu Fenglei generation, their obsession had already affected their own state of cultivation.
In order to resolve this obsession, Zhu Fenglei had thought of countless other methods, but none of them worked. She might as well take the treasure map and search around for a few people. However, the matter of the treasure map had been made known to everyone, causing many jokes to appear. There were even some people who secretly laughed at Zhu Feng Lei for thinking too much about the treasures.
Afterwards, Zhu Fenglei thought of a method, which was to transfer the treasure map out and let others look for it.
He felt that their Zhu Family had spent so much effort over generations but they still couldn't find the secret realm, which meant that they lacked the luck and destiny. If they gave away the treasure map to someone with a deep destiny, wouldn't they find it?
With this idea in mind, Zhu Feng Lei had been choosing those disciples with good karmic luck from the disciples of the Qing-Yun Sect for decades, and then selling them with the treasure map. That's right, she was just selling it, not giving it as a gift. In any case, the treasure map was passed down from generation to generation in the Zhu Family.
But how many disciples in the Qing-Yun Sect could afford to buy this treasure map at such a high price? In the past few decades, only a few Successor Disciples have bought it, but after buying it, they found that they were unable to find the place, and very quickly, they switched their hands again, and after going around it again, the treasure map became cheaper and cheaper, and after going around it once, it actually returned to Zhu Fenglei at the price of a Star Pellet.
This almost made him die from laughter. Some people even joked that Elder Zhu's obsession had returned. Helpless, Zhu Fenglei could only find another treasure, but after all these years, everyone knew that Zhu Fenglei had a treasure map that he had passed down for generations, and it was getting cheaper and cheaper. Who would be willing to buy a completely useless treasure map?
Thus, the treasure map fell into the hands of Zhu Fenglei once again. Until now, Zhu Fenglei had once again thought of taking Su Ye home. Other than because he wanted to obtain the Wind Thunder Sword, he truly felt that Su Ye's luck was deep, and wanted to borrow Su Ye's hands to resolve her own obsession.
Su Ye knew the cause and effect of this event, and did not think that Zhu Feng Lei was empty-handed with her white wolf, but felt that Zhu Feng Lei was being too pathetic.
Su Ye thought about it for a while, then took back the treasure map again, and used it as the payment for the sixty thousand drops of heavenly dew. This was not because Su Ye suddenly felt sympathy for Zhu Fenglei, but he had already calculated this long ago, he could already find the location on the treasure map, so how could he let Zhu Fenglei take the treasure map and pass it around?
However, even though Su Ye did not have a goal, his taking the initiative to return to the treasure map had still moved the Zhu Fu duo's hearts. Especially Zhu Fenglei, she had a kind of feeling about who said that Su Ye was a crazy person, and Su Ye should be a good person.
