Chapter 1155: The Heavenly Writing Scroll at the Bottom of the Lake

Like its name, the forest was shrouded by mist all year round. Due to the low visibility, it was easy to lose one’s way in here.

There were also many fierce beasts in the forest. If one encountered a powerful fierce beast, one would be no different from a sheep running into a pack of wolves; there was no doubt that one would die. Even after so many years, not many cultivators in Great Yan dared to venture deep into the forest. On the other hand, most of those who did venture deeper did not live to tell the tale.

At this time, Conch pointed at the surrounding trees and said, “Master, these trees are getting taller and taller.”

Let alone the cultivation world, even ordinary forests on earth had ancient trees that towered above the clouds. In the Misty Forest where the trees absorbed the vitality energy and essence of heaven and earth, it was not surprising that there were some trees that were so tall.

…

In just a blink of an eye, another half a day had passed.

Cheng Huang flew tirelessly, crossing cliffs and mountains, until it left Misty Forest.

“Further ahead is the Moonlight Woodland. We’re now near the abyss…” Ye Tianxin said.

The sun shone brightly and beautifully in the sky. The surroundings were different from the gloomy Misty Forest.

Lu Zhou surveyed his surroundings and asked, “This is where you received the Fairfolk’s inheritance?”

Ye Tianxin nodded before she said with a sigh, “Yes. I didn’t expect that nothing has changed here even after so many years have passed…”

Cheng Huang moved to the edge of the abyss before it leaped down.

At the same time, many fierce beasts could be seen climbing up the abyss or circling the sky above the abyss. It was a rather shocking sight.

Conch said with a smile, “They’re welcoming Cheng Huang back!”

Cheng Huang fell rapidly.

At this time, a fierce beast that was 100-meter long spread its wings, accidentally blocking the path of Cheng Huang’s descent.

Cheng Huang was not polite and directly stepped on the fierce beast’s wing.

The fierce beast yelped in pain and hurriedly flew away.

Boom!

The descent lasted for about fifteen minutes before Cheng Huang finally landed in the depths of the abyss.

Ye Tianxin smiled and said, “We’re here.”

“It’s so beautiful here.” Conch followed Ye Tianxin around.

Ye Tianxin pointed east and said, “There’s a small lake over there. I’d built a small house there as well.”

The two women flew over as they spoke.

In fact, Lu Zhou was not interested in these things. He really wanted to go to the Unknown Land as soon as possible to find Lu Wu and save Duanmu Sheng. However, since they were already here, it did not make sense to not look around at least.

Soon after, the trio arrived at the lakeside. The trees surrounding the lakeside were lush and filled with vitality.

The statue was still standing at the lakeside.

“The Fairfolk’s ride Cheng Huang… This is something left behind by your ancestors…” Lu Zhou said when he saw the words next to the statue.

Ye Tianxin nodded. “If it were not for that, I wouldn’t have been able to sprout the eighth leaf…”

Lu Zhou shook his head. “You underestimate yourself…”

Ye Tianxin did not understand what Lu Zhou meant.

Lu Zhou said, “Back then, I gave you the Great Void Seed in hopes that you’ll defy the heavens and change your fate. With the Great Void Seed and energy, let alone a mere eighth leaf, even the Thousand Realms Whirling stage isn’t a problem.”

“Great Void…” Ye Tianxin recalled Si Wuya’s words and the medicinal pill she had taken to conceal her aura. A thought appeared in her mind, and she hurriedly kneeled and kowtowed before she said, “Master is kind. I wronged master in the past and almost committed an irreversible mistake…”

Lu Zhou looked at the kowtowing Ye Tianxin before he said with a sigh, “The past is in the past; there’s no need to bring it up. Let’s go.”

Lu Zhou was about to walk away when a flash at the bottom of the lake caught his eyes.

“Hm?”

Ye Tianxin and Conch had noticed their master’s reaction and followed the direction of his gaze before they discovered the abnormality at the bottom of the lake as well.

Perhaps, the angle at which the sun shone was just right, the sunlight fell on the center of the lake, between two giant rocks, reflecting something from the bottom of the lake.

“There’s something there?”

Ye Tianxin said, “Master, I’ll retrieve it for you.”

Lu Zhou nodded.

Ye Tianxin leaped into the crystal-clear lake. Her white robes and white hair fluttered underwater, looking like streams of white ribbon.

When she reached the bottom of the lake, she saw a scroll. The words on it were shining.

Ye Tianxin looked around her surroundings cautiously to make sure there was no trap before she used an energy seal to retrieve it.

When she finally emerged from the lake, water droplets rolled down her body back into the lake. She was already outstanding as it is. Her slender figure was like that of a hibiscus as she stood still. Her wet clothes accentuated her slender figure, revealing her exquisite curves.

Swoosh!

Energy surged out of Ye Tianxin’s body and evaporated the water on her body. Just like that, she returned to the state before she leaped into the water. She could not wait to look at the scroll in her hand.

“Heavenly Writing Scroll?”

Ye Tianxin had recognized the scroll because it looked similar to the one Yu Shangrong had found in the Melilot Graveyard.

Lu Zhou nodded as he surveyed his surroundings again. “No wonder the vitality energy here is so pure, and the lake holds a special energy… As it turns out, my Heavenly Writing Scroll is here…”

Ye Tianxin felt that the entire thing was magical; she did not expect her master’s Heavenly Writing Scroll was lying at the bottom of the lake. She had thought she had sprouted the eighth leaf by relying on the Fairfolk’s inheritance and her own diligence. However, today, she found that everything was still a gift from her master! Everything was fated.

Conch asked, confused, “Master’s Heavenly Writing Scroll?”

If it were Little Yuan’er, she would have said, “Master’s name is not written on it…”

Ye Tianxin respectfully handed the scroll to Lu Zhou. “Master.”

Lu Zhou took the Heavenly Writing Scroll.

“Ding! Obtained incomplete Open Heavenly Writing Scroll.”

Lu Zhou could faintly feel the supreme mystic power from the Heavenly Writing Scroll.

Lu Zhou went through Ji Tiandao’s memories. It was understandable that Ji Tiandao left a Heavenly Writing Scroll to the Empress Dowager of Great Yan since the Empress Dowager, Ji Tiandao, and Liu Ge were acquainted. However, how did this scroll end up with the Fairfolks? What was even stranger was that there was no pattern linking the locations of the Heavenly Writing Scrolls together; they appeared randomly.

When Lu Zhou thought about how meditating on the Heavenly Writing would reward him with an open scroll, he wondered if everything was arranged by the system?

Ye Tianxin smiled and explained to Conch, “Junior sister, you’re unaware of this, but back then, the Evil Sky Pavilion’s might shook the world. There was no one who did not covet the Evil Sky Pavilion’s treasures. The Pickpocket Sect and the Five Rats from Upper Prime City stole from the Evil Sky Pavilion many times. If the ten great sects were not despicable and shameless and stole so many treasures, how could they have gained a foothold in Great Yan?”

Conch nodded.

Wuuuu!

Cheng Huang cried out before it lowered its head to drink from the lake. Then, it glanced at the scroll in Lu Zhou’s hand and made a series of noises.

Conch said, “Master… It said that it found the scroll in the Unknown Land and brought it back here before placing it at the bottom of the lake…”

Lu Zhou. “…”

‘There’s no way to explain this. How am I going to maintain my image?’

Fortunately, Ye Tianxin said with a smile, “This isn’t surprising. Some treasures that were lost in the past flowed to the northern kingdom and some went to the Other Tribes. It’s not impossible for some treasures to end up in the Unknown Land…”

“You’re right.”

Chenghuang raised its head again.

Lu Zhou put the Heavenly Writing Scroll away in his sleeve before he leaped onto Cheng Huang’s back and said, “It’s time to go. The Heavenly Writing Scroll is a small matter. Saving your Third Senior Brother is an important matter.”

“Understood!” Ye Tianxin and Conch said in unison.
