Chapter 1039
Bizarre
Village Chief Bu pointed to the largest red spot. “This is where Ultimate Immortals Monument is located and is also the heart of Third Heaven Continent. Formation Sect and Pill Cauldron Sect are on either side of Ultimate Immortals Monument and separated by a long distance. Don’t you reckon their locations resemble the black and white dots in the yin yang symbol?”
“Yes, but how did you confirm the eight locations?” Mu Yu queried.
“I based it off the relative distance in the eight trigrams diagram, using Formation Sect and Pill Cauldron Sect as the central hub, and then expanded it to cover the continent. Of course, this is only my inference. This dot here is Moyun Mountains to our east. Ghost Gate is to our north. To the west is the fiend race’s swampland. To the south is Twenty-Five Kilometres South Garden and Ku Mu Valley. This should be where the ocean is. I can’t be certain, but I’m sure there’s some meaning to these places. I don’t know if there’s anything more to them, which is why I’m pitching the idea to you, hoping you know something more.”
Mu Yu took the map to study in detail, enlarging Moyun Mountains’ geography and then the red spot, eventually confirming the exact spot was No-Man’s Cemetery! He then enlarged the fiend’s territory in the west. “No way…”
“What is it?”
“The rifts. My shifu has cast a seal on the world’s rifts. There’s a rift at the bottom of No-Man’s Cemetery, the space crossing into the fiend’s territory and all of them bear a striking resemblance. Actually, I remember there’s also a similar valley in the earth in the ocean! Xiaoshuai, you remember when those oceanflame beasts hunted us, and then Qiao Xue led us into the waterfall and fell into an abyss?”
“… Oh, that was when we went along Sacred Road.”
Mu Yu referenced the map with his finger. “I reckon the abyss we saw is the northeast spot on this eight trigrams diagram. There might be a rift to another world if we go to bottom of it. Shifu might’ve even set a seal there.”
