Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Five maps

No matter how weak a weapon was, having one more weapon meant one more assurance. That was why Chu Yunsheng needed bullets.

Yu Xiaohai was dazed for a second. At first, he was just surprised that Chu Yunsheng had taken food out of nowhere, but when he finally understood what Chu Yunsheng meant, his eyes slowly teared up.

If it wasn't for Chu Yunsheng, he would have already lost his life. Now Chu Yunsheng even wanted to give him food.

He knew how important food was at this time. He himself almost died because of one biscuit.

"Brother Chu, don't worry, I'll make sure that they give you the thing you need. I'll try to become stronger as well!"

Chu Yunsheng simply smiled, "Don't be so serious, we are friends. I'm helping you now because I hope you will be able to help me in the future. Go now, don't waste time here."

After Yu Xiaohai left, Chu Yunsheng closed the door. He needed to find out what was wrong with the ancient book and the pendant.

But when he tried to find the pendant, the pendant was gone. He couldn't find it anywhere. All he could see was a pendant string.

Chu Yunsheng remembered clearly that he had tied the pendant to the ancient book, but how come he could not find it now.

'Did the book just absorb it?' He couldn't help but think.

He looked at the ancient book again and noticed that the cover of the book had changed.

Originally, it was just a plain grey-colored page. But now, there seemed to be a map on it. Underneath the map, a few paragraphs of strange symbols gradually and slowly emerged.

It took Chu Yunsheng quite some time to finally but only roughly figure out what it meant.

The senior practitioner, who was also the author of this book, was dying because of a terrible injury when he was writing the book. He was being taken care of by a human tribe at that time.

When he predicted that after five thousand years, Tian Gui would return and the world would fall into endless chaos, he couldn't bring himself to conceal this prediction from the human tribe that had been taken care of him.

The people in the human tribe begged him for solutions when they understood what would happen. In order to repay them, the senior practitioner added all the skills he had learned throughout his entire life into a book and passed the book to the people in the human tribe.

He hoped that the book would follow the human tribe from place to place, and from generation to generation, and when Tian Gui returned, the person who had the book would be able to learn everything in the book.

The senior practitioner had also stored his treasure in one place before he died.

In case his treasures would be discovered too early, the senior practitioner separated the map into five pieces and gave them to five different tribes.

Once Tian Gui returned, it would unleash Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and once the book absorbed Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, it would be activated. Only then, the book would be able to help the book owner to find the maps.

The maps were sealed in five jade stones. Once they were near the book, the book would signal the book owner the exact location of them.

This senior practitioner also wrote that originally, he planned to use incantations to hide the maps inside the book. The incantation would be automatically activated after five thousand years. It would save time and reduce the risk of losing the maps.

However, at that time Tian Gui had already been sealed, and he was also heavily injured; he could not restore his Ling Qi at all. He could barely use his remaining Ling Qi to seal the maps inside five jades.

He also urged whoever had the book five thousand years later to find his treasure as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the extraterrestrial devil arrived on Earth, with the human's cultivation speed, they would not stand a chance against it.

There were still a few more paragraphs after this, but Chu Yunsheng couldn't figure out what it meant. However, just with this bit of information, it was already scary enough!

Extraterrestrial devil? What is that? Chu Yunsheng knew that it was not the insect because the book had descriptions about the insect. They were just beasts from different dimensions. Those symbols that the senior practitioner used to describe "the extraterrestrial devil" were entirely different. This was something that he was sure of.

Maybe some even more powerful creatures. Chu Yunsheng thought. Ancient people and modern people often had different names for the same thing, so sometimes it could be very misleading. Dark energy and Yuan Qi was a perfect example.

Thinking that he could barely fight with a small number of red-shelled insects, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but be shocked. Even the powerful senior practitioner regarded it as a devil, then how strong would it be?

On one hand, he rejoiced in secret that he had the book, but on the other hand, he was scared of the unknown devil.

Who is this senior practitioner?

What is Ling Qi, is it not Yuan Qi?

And if he was so powerful, what could possibly injure him?

Was it something even more terrifying?

Where can I find the rest of the maps?

What should I do now?

One question after another popping up in Chu Yunsheng's mind. He could not stop thinking, but he also could not get an answer.

He may have been secretly satisfied with what he could do at the beginning of the apocalypse, but now it completely destroyed his confidence! He just realized how small and weak he still was!

Luckily, he still had some time left. Although it was not a lot, it didn't mean that he did not have any hope at all. Otherwise, the senior practitioner wouldn't have left everything to him!

But in such a big world, where could he find the rest of the maps?

Chu Yunsheng still did not have any clue, so he stopped thinking about it. His priority right now was to become stronger. Otherwise, if the maps were held by someone who was stronger than him, he would not be able to get them at all.

When he was about to store the book, the ancient book once again glowed in the dark.

Perhaps, it just fully absorbed the first map. Chu Yunsheng thought.

Then he noticed that the ancient book started to absorb a tremendous amount of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi around him like the last time. It stirred up all the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the entire three-dimensional space. He immediately sat down and started to practice his cultivation method while holding the ancient book in his arms.

It only glowed around thirty seconds, but Chu Yunsheng was shocked to find out he had already restored six units of Yuan Qi. It was equivalent to the amount he had to practice cultivation method for seventy-three hours non-stop!

All he could think of at that moment was how powerful the senior practitioner must have been!

Unfortunately, he could not encounter such an opportunity often, and there was no way for him to control or predict it.

But he still could not hold his excitement. Earlier on, he was worried that he only had one unit of Yuan Qi left. But now, the problem was solved all of sudden. Although it was an accident, he was still happy about it.

Plus what he had before, now he had up to seven units of Yuan Qi. He needed to plan his action more carefully this time. It was almost time for the retreat. If he did not have a few absorption talismans as backups, he would not feel safe at all.

He needed to keep six units of Yuan Qi to make a level-two absorption talisman, so he could only use one unit of Yuan Qi to defend himself. But he also had four insect bodies. One absorption talisman was able to convert and stored six red-shelled insects' fire elemental energy, so he needed to have two more insect bodies to make a full-flame-patterned absorption talisman.

Because of the dangerous situations he had encountered in the past, he often had to use the absorption talisman before it was completely full of energy. But now, he did not want to waste it anymore. With Yu Xiaohai's help, he would be able to kill one insect, and Yu Xiaohai would be able to help him freeze one insect. But they needed to hurry up collecting two insect bodies and preparing absorption talismans as soon as possible.

After deciding what he needed to do, Chu Yunsheng quickly packed up everything and went upstairs to look for Yu Xiaohai. The night was still long, anything could happen. So he should not waste the time here.

Before he reached the roof, he heard a voice coming from upstairs.

"Young man, ten bullets for one cookie is our bottom line!" It was Gu Liming, the Captain, who Chu Yunsheng did not like the most.
