Ever since obtaining the Bronze Tiger Tally, Qin Hao had suspected that the Mystic Runes on it, along with its two Fish Eyes, formed a map.

There were many places that even the Heaven-and-Earth Star Chart could not display.
Certain forbidden lands and death lands, for instance.

For him...
The most important thing now was still to
