Chapter 532: Seven large graves (1/2)
This was a soft sheepskin. It was already tattered due to age. Thus, the patterns drawn on it were somewhat fuzzy, but looking carefully, one could see that this was a map.
At the center of this map, there was a tall mountain, and on the tall mountain, there were big and small graves everywhere. As for around this tall mountain, it was a blank space shrouded with thick mist. At one glance, one could see that this was the map of Sea Demon Clan’s racial holy land.
Ye Chuan was excited and he quickly looked for the real location of the Lost City on this map.
If he found Lost City, then there was a high chance that he would find Zhu Sijia and others. At that time, he could join them and quickly leave this sea area after taking the holy item of Sea Demon Clan and return to the mainland!
After unwittingly learning the circumstance of Hong Zixia was not good, Ye Chuan was anxious to return, but the tall mountain of the map was also shrouded with dense mist and there were graves everywhere, in addition, the map was tattered and fuzzy, how could he know the location of Lost City?
Ye Chuan carefully looked for a while but he still gained nothing. It seemed that this was not a secret map from Sea Demon Clan, rather the map casually made by a certain loose cultivator or great devil, nothing worth mentioning was marked on this map.
“Your Excellency, look here, isn’t this just happen to be the Great Monarch Grave we broke in? And here, isn’t there a dotted line?”
Zhong Moli walked forward and said pointing on the map.
After accidentally obtaining this map more than a hundred years ago, he had repeatedly studied it. He had long noticed many details that went unnoticed by ordinary people.
At first glance, the place pointed by Zhong Moli seemed to be an unassuming little dot on the map, representing a grave, not different from the other graves. But, from the surrounding topography, it was truly identical to the Great Monarch Grave. And upon the careful look, one could further see a faint dotted line passing through this grave. And following this dotted line, one could see that this dotted line passed through seven graves on the map.
These seven graves spread across the mountain, from top to bottom. There were not in any particular order, merely, this faint dotted line passed through them. Starting from the foot of the mountain, this Great Monarch Grave was located in the second position of this dotted line.
“Your Excellency, if my guess isn’t wrong, then the real racial holy land of Sea Demon Clan is inside one of these seven graves.”
The old devil paused and added, “The first grave marked by the dotted line is near the foot of the mountain, I have already broke in and explored it. There were also many treasures sealed inside, but someone else had basically taken them away. Other than traces left behind by ordinary loose cultivators, I found something else.”
The old devil said as he took out a command plate from his bosom. Many waves like lines were carved on it as if an ocean world was sealed inside this command plate.
“This is…… command tablet of Sea Demon Clan!” Ye Chuan’s eye shone.
“Yes, it is the special command tablet of Sea Demon Clan, without a doubt, Sea Demon Clan had definitely been inside that grave. Moreover, they seemed to be in haste as they dropped this command plate inside.” The old devil hesitated for a while and added, “Your Excellency, I think even the descendants of Sea Demon Clan didn’t know the real location of Lost City, so they were also looking around. To be precise, they were looking among these seven graves! As long as we are quick enough, we can break into the real Lost City before them and take away their holy item!”
In order to gain the trust and help of Ye Chuan, the old devil went all out, he told all his findings of over a hundred years without any reservation.
Now, the most urgent matter for him was to resolve his calamity and survive. Any treasure was less important. Without life, what was the use of any treasure?
Ye Chuan who was in front of him was his only hope.
