A great secret lay hidden within the Flying Immortal Records.
This secret concerned the tireless, ultimate pursuit of the cultivators from the ages before the Dharma-Ending Age, when the Dharma Dao flourished and even immortal inheritances still existed... the art of Immortality and Imperishability!
Fang Qianyuan had actually learned something of this long ago.
The key lay in the Flying Immortal Records themselves. Their fronts bore star maps, while supreme secret arts such as the "Reverse Time Transformation" were on the backs!
It was easy to imagine what this distinction between primary and secondary signified.
From the scattered remarks accompanying the Bird Script of the "Reverse Time Transformation," Fang Qianyuan had learned that the nine star maps seemed to point toward ruins containing ancient secret treasures. Only by uniting all nine maps and unraveling their secrets could those treasures be unearthed.
This was really an old trick of the Ancient Cultivators: hiding something in a renowned mountain and passing it down to posterity. Their original purpose in passing down the records had merely been to preserve this legacy and leave future generations something to aspire to in their pursuit of the ultimate.
Yet no one had expected the Age of Dharma Decline to truly descend, or for someone with ulterior motives to divide the records into nine pieces, turning them into a source of calamity!
In Fang Qianyuan's eyes, this thing was nothing but trouble. Without it, his father would not have died. Without it, there would not have been so many schemers and mysterious figures.
Fang Qianyuan read on, and sure enough, there was information concerning Elder Tianheng as well!
It likewise mentioned that Elder Tianheng possessed a star map, a cultivation method, and a Silver Treasure Pill!
This was no different from the information Fang Qianyuan had obtained
