On the top of the cliff, on the terrace behind the Dengyun Palace, in front of Zhang Yan was a phantom projection that he was able to punch out of a jade slip. Anyone who has traveled through the void world can tell at a glance that the twinkling bright spots in this shadow should form a star map.
"Although it's basically complete," Zhang Yan clasped his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly and looked at the phantom star chart he typed out, muttering to himself.
More than a thousand pieces of gold foil were gathered together to create not only the four daggers hidden in Zhang Yan's Dao Pill, but also the large star map in front of him.
Anyone who has played jigsaw puzzles should know that the most difficult stage of this kind of game is the beginning, which is the first piece of splicing threads. As more and more puzzle pieces are put together, the difficulty of the entire puzzle will show an avalanche effect, getting faster and easier.
Of course, it is not difficult to piece together the pieces that have been rubbed into the jade slips using spiritual thoughts, and it does not even take much time. It is not too easy for Zhang Yan to deal with this kind of thing with his divine will in the middle stage of Tangtangxian Realm. The difficulty is that there are no pieces that can be put together, and there is a lack of major pieces to put together.
Later, the little things added up, and the first piece of piecing together appeared, followed by the second and third pieces. Finally, a large area was connected to the city.
Now more than 700 gold foils have been filled in, and the main parts of the star map have been completely outlined.
Huge, so huge that it was beyond Zhang Yan’s imagination. He compared the star maps of the Chaos sect that he had seen and the star maps of the Pastoral sect that he had collected. Although it could not be said in detail, at least Zhang Yan could distinguish the scope of the star maps on both sides.
From what Zhang Yan saw, the scope of the gold foil star map was almost equal to a little more than 70% of the total territory of the Pastoral Sect and the Chaos Sect.
Of course, the Pastoral Sect and the Chaos Sect are not all of the void world, there is also the vast unknown domain. But so what? No matter how vast the unknown territory is, it has nothing to do with living beings. The focus is always on the existence territory of the two factions. Even the Wild Sky Territory once said that the unknown territory is full of dangers, and even the world dare not stay in it. The possibility of being born and successfully evolving is too low.
You must know that these void worlds that can support the evolution of the world and the survival of living beings have taken the major forces how many immortals and how many hours of time to open up?
Just this, the gold foil star chart can compare with it by 70%. This is still part of the star chart display. How much further out is unknown.
With the now complete gold foil star map, Zhang Yan can already see many routes similar to it.
"These lines are so strange." Zhang Yan has been staring at the phantom star map in front of him on the terrace with his hands behind his back for two full days. And it was two days after he was immersed in the jade slip and couldn't figure it out, and then continued to look at it.
Although he still didn't see the reason behind the "awkwardness" given to him in the star map, it wasn't that he didn't discover anything at all.
For example, these strange feelings come from Zhang Yan's observation of the void world and the senses derived from looking at the "paths" on the gold foil star map.
The so-called "path" is not actually an obvious route mark, but a passive route that "can only be followed along this road".
For example, if you enter from the right, you will see a void desert with some dangerous signs going up. Going forward is the trajectory of the void storm or you are still in the void desert. Then the only option is to go down. And "go down" has become the only path without route markings.
The paths on the gold foil star map are all passive paths. The only difference is that you can choose some intersections or even take detours, but in the end you can only go around on the "fixed route" and have no other choice.
This kind of path has never appeared in the star charts of the Pastoralists and Chaosists, and it seems completely illogical.
Then there are only two possibilities.
Or, the content on the gold foil star chart is deceptive and false.
Or, the content on the gold foil star map is true, but it does not rely entirely on the natural evolution of the void like the star chart in the void world. It is because of human intervention, or even direct arrangement, that this weird star map path was formed.
Reason makes Zhang Yan think that it is probably the former reason. After all, gold foil is the reshaping material of the four killing swords. If you don't get the sword soul, but you have a "meaningful" method to come into contact with the star map on the gold foil, it is likely that the role of the gold foil itself will be ignored and it will be regarded as a "treasure map." It's kind of misleading. It also gives the seemingly useless gold foil an acceptable "use".
But his intuition told Zhang Yan that the latter possibility was not just conjecture. Because the book "Ran Travels" confirms the star map book on the side. And the saint who left the words on the stone tablet in the Sword Tomb ruins.
Other immortals, even Daluo Jinxian, may not be able to use the void as a chessboard and the world as a vast arrangement of chess pieces, leaving only a single path. But is it really possible for a saint to do this kind of thing?
It was precisely based on his own intuition that Zhang Yan felt that when he learned about the grievances with Minghua Rongzong, he unexpectedly obtained two books that he considered to be his biggest gains when he settled the grievances.
Because of the special material of these two books, Zhang Yan's fleeting thoughts swept them out and mentioned them separately. These were already the two biggest gains he felt in the Minghua Rong Sect. As for Minghua Rongzong itself, it ceased to exist when he left.
What special materials would be paid special attention to by Zhang Yan’s mind?
The copper beast spine leather is the same material as the "Travel Notes" that Bu Zhongxun gave to Zhang Yan before. If it were not surprising that the refining materials were the same, then the names of these two books would be enough for Zhang Yan to mention them separately.
One is called "Under the Void" and the other is called "Afterwords of Wandering".
The author of both books is named "You Yu", who is also the author of "Ran Travels".
Compared with "Travel Notes", the contents of the two books Zhang Yan harvested this time are not mainly based on "experiences". Rather, it is mainly based on subjective speculation, which can also be said to be a guess about what actually exists.
"Under the Void" is a speculation on the rare void collapse in the void. "Afterword of Luanyou" is the speculation of "Youyu" about the "region of chaos" after he came back from the "region of chaos" in his other book "Luanyouji".
Although most of the contents in these two books were considered by Zhang Yan to be pure nonsense, some parts of them made his eyes light up.
"Under the Void" speculates that the void is layered. And there is a deep distortion of space. Since it is a deep distortion, it is most likely not two overlapping layers, but there may be three, four or even more layers.
In "Ranyou Postscript", "You Yu" mentioned a concept of "the origin of time". He felt that the two points in time when he entered the Chaotic Realm and when he left the Chaotic Realm almost overlapped.
