This Heavenly Book was never a treasure to Chen Lu and his companion. Even their teacher, Xuanzhenzi, had searched for it for a long time but had never found the second volume of the Heavenly Book, so they knew even less about it.
The two shook their heads at Hu Le.
Hu Le didn't take it to heart, as he hadn't had high expectations for them anyway.
He waved to the two of them, signaling them to get lost.
This unexpected gain put him in a good mood, and considering that the two had brought him this scroll of heavenly scripture, he was willing to spare their lives.
Upon seeing this, the two felt as if they had been granted a pardon. They no longer thought about getting the Heavenly Book back from Hu Le. They immediately bowed to Hu Le to thank him for sparing their lives, and then hurriedly fled the Taoist temple.
Once they arrived outside the Taoist temple, Chen Lu felt completely relieved. He took the Taiyi Liuhe Yanlu in his hand and examined it, feeling rather fortunate.
Although the Heavenly Book was lost, this precious treasure was at least preserved, which can be considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Feeling lucky, he glanced at Xiaoyue Daoist not far away, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
It's all this guy's fault!
If he hadn't come to kill us, how could so many things have happened afterward?
That's absolutely unforgivable!
He suffered a great loss at Hu Le's hands, and seeing that he could not get revenge, he decided to vent his anger on Xiaoyue Daoren.
Xiaoyue Daoist is now reduced to a broken primordial spirit.
If he were to deal with it, wouldn't it be a piece of cake?
Besides, he hadn't forgotten that Daoist Xiaoyue had just taken away his Five Poisons God-Slaying Sword...
"You old thief! Hurry up and return my Five Poisons Divine Sword!"
Chen Lu shouted at Xiaoyue Daoist.
Xiaoyue Daoren was startled, realizing that she was no match for Chen Lu in her current state. She quickly leaped into the air and then vanished in a flash of light.
Now that he only has a wisp of his primordial spirit left, flying away is much easier for him. He can travel thousands of miles in a single leap without relying on the power of magic weapons.
Chen Lu now hated this man to the core, so how could he let him leave so easily? He immediately wrapped the Taiyi Liuhe Yanluo around himself, leaped into the air, and transformed into a beam of light to chase after him...
Taoist temple.
Hu Le naturally didn't care about the love-hate relationship between the two brothers outside.
He immediately began to deduce the location of the lower volume of the Heavenly Book.
However, after calculating for a long time, limited by the cultivation level of this physical body, no useful information was found.
Next, if he were to summon that Dao-Merging Saint to deduce the results, things might be different; he might be able to obtain some useful information.
However, he also feared that the Taoist from the cosmos was still watching this world.
If we rashly use that Dao-Merging Saint to communicate with the Heavenly Dao of this universe, it might alert that Space Daoist and allow him to detect our location.
If we are exposed because of this, wouldn't all the work we've done before be for nothing?
Fortunately, besides divination, he had another method.
Next, he took out a few copper coins and used a secret technique to throw them onto the ground.
Clearly, he was using divination techniques.
The results obtained by this technique may not be as accurate as the information obtained through divination.
But if he could find a general location, he could try his luck.
In any case, even the most basic information is better than nothing.
In any case, he didn't want to wander aimlessly through this vast Heavenly Realm like a headless fly just for that scroll of heavenly scriptures...
Hu Le used the art of divination to drop a copper coin, and then, based on its landing position and whether it landed on either side, he deduced the Eight Trigrams of the Heavenly Stems.
Fuxi created the Eight Trigrams of the Primordial Era and became the master of this path.
King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang, developed the Book of Changes and became the ruler of a dynasty.
Both of them were masters of divination. There were countless cultivators in the entire prehistoric world, but apart from a few Primordial Saints, no one could surpass them in the art of divination.
However, both of them had studied under Hu Le.
This shows that Hu Le's application of divination techniques was also extraordinary.
Hu Le lowered his eyes and looked down at the ground.
At this moment, with his position as the center, an invisible innate Yin-Yang Bagua diagram appeared on the ground, and he began to silently interpret the meaning of the hexagrams in his mind by using the position of the copper coins in the Bagua diagram.
The final information we received was: Next, we should travel 109,000 li to the east, where we might gain some benefits.
Once he deciphered the meaning of the divination, the copper coins on the ground immediately turned to dust.
These were just ordinary copper coins; under the constant impact of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, they naturally couldn't withstand it and turned into dust...
Hu Le stood up, walked out of the Taoist temple, and looked eastward.
One hundred and nine thousand li seems extremely far, and an ordinary person would not know how long it would take to travel, but for Hu Le's physical body, it is nothing more than a trivial matter.
He immediately raised his hand and released the Autumn Water Sword, lunging towards the flying sword. Instantly, his body and sword became one, and he soared into the sky, heading straight for the azure heavens.
The sword light tore through the void as it flew eastward.
Sword light flashed all the way, and in just a few breaths, he had traveled thousands of miles. Mountains and rivers swept past him, and all kinds of scenery were like fleeting clouds.
Not long after, he finally arrived at a place 109,000 miles away.
He had already left the inland area, and beneath him lay a vast and boundless ocean.
This is the East China Sea region of this world.
The scenery is similar to that of the primeval world, with azure seawater and sky blending into one, and countless islands of all sizes standing on the sea like stars scattered across the water, enduring the constant erosion of the sea from all directions.
Blue sky, white clouds, calm sea, seagulls soaring overhead, fish leaping and plunging in the water, splashing up sprays of water...
Hu Le circled the sea once on his flying sword, then found a nearby island and unleashed his sword light.
Although the island is lush with vegetation and shaded by trees, its spiritual energy is somewhat thin, so no one has occupied the island or established a Taoist temple there.
Hu Le found a small mountain peak a hundred feet high on the island, then landed on the top and released a divine sense to scan the entire island. He found that apart from some small wild animals and seabirds, there were no other living beings on the island.
To humans, this place is practically an empty island.
Hu Le rested on the mountaintop for a while, and then began to circle the sea, using the island as a center.
Not long after, he suddenly discovered something unusual in the deep sea hundreds of miles away from the island.
He immediately stopped, his sleeves fluttering as he stood on the sea, his body rising and falling with the waves, while his divine sense probed straight down.
Hundreds of feet below the sea surface, there was a dark, gaping hole, extremely deep inside, resembling a dormant volcano.
In the darkness, Hu Le probed into it with his divine sense and vaguely sensed traces of array formations and restrictions...
