"If you listen to what I'm about to say, then you should understand what I mean."
Duanmu Cheng could clearly see the confusion in Qin Yi's eyes. He laughed bitterly and said, "This Sky Treasure Map records all sorts of rare treasures in the Divine wilderness. Its history can be traced back to ancient times. "
After hearing that, Qin Yi could not help but be moved. He did not expect the Sky Treasure Map to have such a history.
Clearly, as long as he had the Sky Treasure Map, he would be able to accurately determine whether what he saw was a treasure or not.
For a stranger like Qin Yi who did not belong to this world, his understanding of the Divine wilderness was still rather lacking.
It was not an easy task to appraise all sorts of treasures and their origins.
However, they were only in the Cloud Sea Region. In the vast Divine wilderness, this seemingly huge empire was actually just a drop in the ocean. How could it be easy to travel the entire Divine wilderness?
Furthermore, this was a treasure of the entire Divine wilderness. Even with Qin Yi's abilities, it was impossible for him to travel the entire Divine wilderness and collect all the treasures.
If that was the only use of the Sky Treasure Map, then there was really no need to obtain it.
However, Qin Yi still believed that since his master said that, the Sky Treasure Map definitely had other uses.
As expected, after a pause, Duanmu Cheng continued, "The treasures recorded in the Sky Treasure Map are only one of its uses. As for its true use, it was related to a huge secret. This secret involves the entire Divine wilderness. Perhaps, this is a true opportunity. "
No wonder Duanmu Cheng treated the Sky Treasure Map as a treasure and could not bear to discard it after so many years.
"However, I am very clear. Compared to the entire Divine wilderness, I am simply too insignificant. "
At this point, Duanmu Cheng's expression could not help but turn somewhat gloomy. He also felt a trace of helplessness. "With my current age, I no longer have the ability and the mood to leave the Cloud Sea Empire and the Cloud Sea Domain to see the vaster world. Therefore, this Heavenly Treasure Map is ultimately just a dream that I can only look at but cannot reach. "
As he spoke, he suddenly shot his gaze towards Qin Yi, and his eyes shone brightly. "However, you and I are different. You have unlimited potential. Even an old man like me, who has lived for hundreds of years, can't see your end. However, I believe that your future will not be limited to the Cloud Sea Empire. Perhaps, one day, you will be able to roam the peak of the Divine wilderness continent. "
Duanmu Cheng raised his head. His face was filled with endless yearning and longing. Gradually, a gratified smile appeared on his face. It was as if he could already see Qin Yi's bright future.
"Your future will definitely be incomparably brilliant. Only in your hands will this Heavenly Treasure Map be able to display its true potential. "
Qin Yi was shocked. He had never expected Duanmu Cheng to have such high expectations of him.
Without a doubt, Duanmu Cheng's decision to give the Heavenly Treasure Map to Qin Yi must have been made after careful consideration.
If the Heavenly Treasure Map really had such an effect, then Qin Yi would be quite interested in it.
"However, there's something I have to tell you. The ultimate secret of the Heavenly Treasure Map is not written in this book. Just like how I hid the main ingredient in the Cleansing Soul Pill formula, its information has also been hidden. If you want to see through this ultimate secret, you will need to rely on your own efforts. "
"Sigh!"
Duanmu Cheng suddenly sighed heavily and said, "It's a pity that I'm still not smart enough. Even after spending my entire life, I still can't find out the secret within. After so many years, I've long given up on the secret of the Heavenly Treasure Map. Compared to this ultimate secret, I'm more willing to treat it as something that I can entrust myself to. "
Qin Yi frowned and asked, "Master, it seems like there's something going on between you and the Heavenly Treasure Map?"
Duanmu Cheng's gaze sharpened, and his expression turned slightly complicated. From his eyes, Qin Yi could see that there seemed to be a kind of nostalgia, a kind of unwillingness, and a kind of helplessness.
Without a doubt, this old man who focused on alchemy must have had an unknown past in the past.
However, the past had been hidden by him, as if he was unwilling to look at it directly.
Duanmu Cheng remained silent for a long time, but in the end, he did not reveal the secret.
Of course, Qin Yi would not force him, as it was Duanmu Cheng's personal matter after all. He naturally had his own difficulties for not revealing it. If that was the case, why should he be an ignorant bad guy?
"Alright, after saying so much, you should understand."
Duanmu Cheng quickly calmed his emotions, and a relieved smile appeared on his face. "The fate between me and the Heavenly Treasure Map has been severed. Next, you should replace this old man to continue this fate. If one day, you're able to reveal the final secret, I'm sure I'll be very happy. "
It could be seen that Duanmu Cheng no longer had any reluctance to leave the Sky Treasure Map after voicing his thoughts.
Most importantly, he seemed to have regarded Qin Yi as the sustenance of his dreams.
Qin Yi no longer refused, and took the tattered ancient book from Duanmu Cheng's hands. All of a sudden, he felt that the book had the weight of a mountain, and it felt extremely heavy.
"Don't worry, Master. I'll do my best in the future to uncover the final secret of this book. By then, no matter where I am, I'll rush back as soon as possible to share this secret with Master. "
This was not just a sentence, but a promise from Qin Yi. For the sake of this promise, he had to work harder, widen his horizons, and do his best to uncover this secret.
After receiving Qin Yi's promise, Duanmu Cheng was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. However, it was obvious that he was touched. Evidently, Qin Yi's words had set off a storm in his heart.
