Chapter 1319: The Mysterious Book

Zhi Wenzi, Zhi Wuzi, and Zou Ping’s expressions were stiff and strange as they looked at Yuan Lang, one of the 49 Swordsmen. Venerable Master Fan was waiting outside while Venerable Master sent gifts. Just who was the old man in front of them?

Zhi Wenzi wanted to seize the opportunity to build a good relationship with Qin Renyue so he asked Yuan Lang in a low voice, “I wonder how’s Venerable Master Qin?”

Yuan Lang did not even look at Zhi Wenzi. He held the brocade box in his hand and thought to himself, ‘What right do you have to speak at this time?’

Yuan Lang’s sole purpose of coming here was to visit Lu Zhou. Zhi Wenzi’s interruption really displeased him.

Zhi Wenzi. “…”

Lu Zhou only glanced at Yuan Lang; he was not in a hurry to reply to Yuan Lang. Instead, he pointed at Zhi Wenzi and asked, “Did the emperor of Great Qin send you here?”

“Yes,” Zhi Wenzi replied in a low voice.

“So, you think I don’t dare to do anything to you because you have the emperor’s support, am I right?” Lu Zhou asked. He had met so many people like Zhi Wenzi that he had already grown numb. In other words, these people did not know who they were dealing with at all.

Upon hearing Lu Zhou’s words, Zhi Wenzi hurriedly bowed. “It’s not like that. I’m just following orders.”

“Give me the golden token,” Lu Zhou said.

Zhao Yu respectfully handed the golden token over.

Lu Zhou held the golden token in his hand. It was rather light and was not made of pure gold. After a moment, he asked, “Why don’t you kneel when you see this golden token?”

“…”

Thud!

Zhi Wenzi, Zhi Wuzi, and the other cultivators fell to their knees in unison.

Zou Ping and the cavalrymen fell to their knees as well.

“Seeing this golden token is like seeing the emperor himself. Zhao Yu brought this token out and asked all of you to leave the Zhao Residence, but all of you disobeyed the order. Who gave you the courage to act that way?” Lu Zhou asked.

Although Zhao Yu’s had said words like these as well, when it was said by Lu Zhou, the effect was different.

These words rendered Zhi Wenzi speechless and made his face turn red.

Lu Zhou finally shifted his gaze away from Zhi Wenzi to Yuan Lang and asked, “Why did Qin Renyue send you here?”

“Venerable Master Qin went to the ancient ruins in Ping Dan in the Unknown Land and found this there. He said it’s very important and that I have to hand it over to you,” Yuan Lang replied.

Lu Zhou looked at the brocade box.

It was brown, and there were exquisite decorative patterns around it. However, it was clearly old; dirt could be seen in the edges of the box.

“Open it,” Lu Zhou said.

“Yes.” Yuan Lang did not hesitate and opened the brocade box.

Clack!

An old musty smell wafted out of the box as Yuan Lang presented it to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou did not think there would be anything precious in the brocade box. After all, how could Qin Renyue give away a treasure? Even if Qin Renyue knew how to distinguish right from wrong and was rather sensible, there was no reason for him to give a treasure away. However, he frowned as soon as he saw what was in the box.

Upon seeing the frown on Lu Zhou’s face, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion were surprised. After all, it was rare for him to show his emotions on his face. All of them wondered what was in the brocade box that could put a frown on his face.

Little Yuan’er and Conch even tiptoed to try to catch a glimpse of what lay in the box.

An old and yellowed book lay in the box. Although it was old, it was protected from decay by the runes that were carved on it.

The title only consisted of four huge words: The Scripture of Sermons.

There was nothing special about these four words. The interesting thing was actually located below the title. A box that was drawn with a brush could be seen below the title, and there were 26 alphabets written above the box.

“…”

It was not an exaggeration to say that in this world, apart from Lu Zhou, it was very difficult to find another person who could recognize these 26 alphabets.

Apart from that, the three words ‘Evil Sky Pavilion’ were written on the cover as well.

Lu Zhou picked up the book in disbelief. “The Scripture of Sermons?”

Yuan Lang said respectfully, “When Venerable Master Qin found this in Ping Dan, he thought it was interesting. When he saw the words ‘Evil Sky Pavilion’, he thought this book must belong to you. Perhaps, you lost it when you went to Ping Dan, old sir. In any case, it has now returned to its rightful owner.”

After Yuan Lang finished speaking, he closed the empty brocade box and retreated to the side. He felt much more relaxed and had time to focus on other matters now that he had completed his task. He glanced at Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi and shook his head as he thought to himself, ‘So many blind men…’

Lu Zhou looked at the book as 100 different emotions surged in his heart.

No matter how long he had stayed in this place, everything he had learned on earth was still deeply ingrained in him. It did not matter how high his cultivation base was or how strong he was here.

“Venerable Master Qin said that this book is protected by mysterious runes. If one uses force to open it, it’s likely that the book will be destroyed. Venerable Master Qin had looked for many rune masters, but none of them could figure out the secrets of the runes,” Yuan Lang said.

Little Yuan’er looked at the three words on the cover and asked with a smile, “It really says ‘Evil Sky Pavilion’! Master, when did you go to that whatever Ping place?”

Yuan Lang’s expression grew slightly unnatural as he tried to say in the most humble tone, “It’s Ping Dan.”

“Ping Dan?”

Yuan Lan explained, “There are twelve places in the Unknown Land, and they were named after each of the 12 hours in the ancient time. They are Ye Ban, Ji Ming, Ping Dan, Ri Chu, Shi Shi, Yu Zhong, Ri Zhong, Ri Die, Wan Shi, Ri Ru, Huang Hun, and Ren Ding. After the Unknown Land became what it is today, there were frequent mountain movements and changes in the land and sea. In just two days, most of the places could undergo drastic changes. In order to better determine the location, the ancient Saints used the Red Line as the axis and divided the Unknown Land into twelve areas according to the ancient hours.”

Everyone nodded.

Little Yuan’er asked curiously, “Then what about the Great Desolate Land?” Then, she added, “I think the Great Desolate Land sounds better than Yu Zhong.”

Yuan Lang said with a smile, “The Great Desolate Land is the former name of Yu Zhong. It corresponds with one of the 12 Earthly Branches of the ancient system. Just like how Ren Ding corresponds with the Great Offering Abyss; Ye Ban corresponds with the Quandary Land; Ping Dan corresponds with…”

“Wait a minute…” Little Yuan’er said as she scratched her head, “I can’t remember everything. It’s better for you to tell these things to my Seventh Senior Brother if you see him in the future…”

Little Yuan’er did not care about the names of the places or their origins.

Yuan Lang nodded and no longer continued explaining. Instead, he said, “Humans used to live in the Unknown Land. Naturally, at that time, it wasn’t called the Unknown Land. The Great Desolate Land, the Great Offering Abyss, the Quandary Land; these were all old names…”

“Then, do you know where the Great Void is?” Little Yuan’er asked.

Yuan Lang shook his head. “Let alone me, even Venerable Master Qin doesn’t know where it is…”

“Oh,” Little Yuan’er said perfunctorily before she turned to look at her master. She saw he was still studying the 26 letters.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Lang said, “It’s not surprising if you can’t decipher them. Venerable Master Qin once brought this book everywhere as he searched for experts to decipher them. No one could decipher them. Moreover, they don’t look like ordinary runes. However, since the words ‘Evil Sky Pavilion’ are written on it, I’m sure you’ll be able to open it sooner or later…”

Swoosh!

Lu Zhou opened the book. It was as though he was back on earth, sitting in a library and flipping through a dusty old book.

Yuan Lang. “…”

Lu Zhou did not pay attention to Yuan Lang. When he saw the letters in the books, the nonsensical scripts he had previously comprehended suddenly began to appear in his mind like glittering golden letters one after another.

Lu Zhou was taken aback. He could sense the power was similar to the Heavenly Writing’s energy so he hurriedly closed it..
