Chapter 745 - 745 57 Map_6
Chapter 745: Chapter 57 Map_6 Chapter 745: Chapter 57 Map_6 Now with this map and the sea barrier as reference points, the pair could find a way to bypass the sea barrier and return to West Sea Country!
“Quick, make a copy of this map!”
Wang Ba immediately took out a pen from his Storage Treasure and began to transcribe it onto one of his scrolls.
As a cultivator, despite not having studied this much, his precise control meant that although achieving the status of a Master Painter might be difficult, transcribing a mere map would almost certainly result in an almost perfect replica.
Half a stick of incense later, Wang Ba had completely transcribed the map, essentially memorizing it in his mind.
It was better to be prepared, and it didn’t take much time anyway.
Only after he had made a complete copy did Wang Ba carefully touch the map.
Unexpectedly, he found that the map, made from some unknown material, was undamaged, though the other bookshelves and scrolls had turned to ash.
...
Wang Ba couldn’t help but frown:
“This cultivator from Zhongsheng Continent seemed to value this map highly, so why didn’t he take it with him?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Lingxiao too couldn’t help but ponder:
“Furthermore, this is a temporary immortal cave.
Normally, if one decides to leave, everything would be taken, unless he left very urgently, or…
he didn’t expect to ever return.”

Looking at each other, they guessed the situation.Apparently, this cultivator from Zhongsheng Continent had come here for some reason, created a temporary immortal cave, encountered some unknown circumstance, left in a rush possibly intending to return soon, but ended up never coming back.
“Perhaps he perished outside, perhaps he wanted to return to Zhongsheng Continent, perhaps something else.”
Qin Lingxiao speculated.
She took a step and finally moved towards the pearl in the middle that was emitting a soft glow.
The bookshelves had turned into ash, indicating a long passage of time.
The sea pearl was still rotating, perhaps one could find something from it.
But as soon as she saw it, Qin Lingxiao exclaimed:
“This is a Class IV magic treasure!”
“What?
Class IV magic treasure?”
Wang Ba, who had just put away the map, was surprised and went over.
Looking at the pearl that was not particularly striking, he found it hard to believe.
He had hardly ever encountered magic treasures.
Mostly because magic treasures are rarer than Magic Tools.
A Class III Magic Tool was not uncommon in Wanxiang Sect.
But those who possessed a Class IV magic treasure were almost always Nascent Soul cultivators.
And conversely, not every Nascent Soul cultivator had a Class IV magic treasure.
Qin Lingxiao carefully circled the pearl and then shook her head slightly:
“No, more accurately, it’s the remnants of a Class IV magic treasure…”
“The True Spirit within this magic treasure has likely been obliterated due to a long lack of nourishment.
Although this pearl is still rotating, it won’t be long before it naturally dissolves… It’s hard to imagine how long ago this immortal cave came into existence.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba couldn’t help but feel a sense of deep emotion.
Qin Lingxiao tried to pick up the pearl and unexpectedly, she managed to easily lift it into her palm.
“Wang Ba, this is for you.”
However, Qin Lingxiao handed the pearl to Wang Ba.
Wang Ba looked at it, then shook his head slightly: “You keep it.”
Without this pearl, the cave became suddenly dimmer.
Fortunately, both were cultivators and could see clearly even with little light.
Only then did Wang Ba notice that the Hole-digging Otter, which had entered the cave early, had disappeared without a trace at some point.
“Yaya!”
At this moment, from the depths of the cave, the voice of the Hole-digging Otter echoed again.
And at the same time, without the previous resistance from the pearl, the seawater next to the cave started to rush in rapidly…
“Go!”
Wang Ba and Qin Lingxiao increased their speed, dashing deeper into the cave.
Not long after, they saw the Hole-digging Otter standing in front of a cavernous stone wall, beckoning them.
The two instantly followed.
Just as he approached, the Hole-digging Otter clung to Wang Ba’s thigh and reached out his palm.
“Yaya!”
Wang Ba’s face darkened slightly, quickly making gestures:
“The place you brought me to has nothing…
You will get more only if you cross the Sea Barrier!”
He didn’t know if it was his gestures that made sense, or if this Hole-digging Otter was exceptionally intelligent.
Disappointment showed on its face instantly.
It lifted an arm, its fist clenched as if it had made a decision:
“Yaya!
Yaya!”
Not knowing what it was saying, the Hole-digging Otter rushed and collided into the wall of the cave beside it.
Two sharp claws sprung out of its palms, rapidly digging into the cave wall.
Simultaneously, seawater swiftly rushed in.
Just in the nick of time, right before the seawater arrived, the Hole-digging Otter finally broke through the cave wall and…
A large influx of seawater instantly surged in from the opening of the cave wall.
Nevertheless, the two men and the beast, not ordinary beings, were unaffected by the seawater; they quickly swam outside.
“Yaya!”
The Hole-digging Otter again beckoned Wang Ba and his friend.
Then it quickly swam off into the distance.
Immediately, Wang Ba summoned Fu.
The two hurriedly dove into the mouth of Fu.
“Follow that otter!”
Under Wang Ba’s command, Fu moved its limbs instantly and chased after it.
Shortly, Fu caught up with the Hole-digging Otter.
Instead of sitting inside Fu’s belly this time, Wang Ba perched within its mouth, observing the outside world through the corners of Fu’s wide-open mouth.
However, not long after, his expression changed slightly.
He was startled to find that the Hole-digging Otter was leading them directly towards the Sea Barrier.
Even before they had reached the Sea Barrier, they could visibly see the increasing crowd of Demonic Beasts from below.
Here, even ordinary Class III Demonic Beasts could not easily withstand the incredibly fierce currents.
They circled around this area, their underwater rapid currents occasionally washing up fish, shrimp, and slightly weaker Demonic Beasts, which they tore apart and devoured in the blink of an eye.
So much so that this section of the seabed waters was filled with blood red and the stench of blood, which in turn attracted more predators wanting to join in.
So, some of these predators became the prey instead.
Fighting, chaos.
Every living being attempting to slip through here would attract an enormous amount of Demonic Beasts.
However, to Wang Ba’s surprise, the Hole-digging Otter stopped just outside the range of these hunting Demonic Beasts.
It then swiftly dived to the seafloor below and begun to excavate the muddy bed rapidly.
“It wants to dig a hole in the seabed to cross the Sea Barrier?”
Wang Ba instantly guessed the otter’s plan.
He immediately ordered Fu to work together with the Hole-digging Otter.
As a Stone Lizard, digging holes was one of its basic abilities.
However, at that moment, Wang Ba suddenly felt his scalp tingling!
He instinctively looked in the direction of the distant sky through the corner of Fu’s mouth.
He saw a black octopus, the size of a mountain range, quietly propelling its body using its eight tentacles near the surface of the water.
Each propulsion stirred up turbulent currents around it.
Yet, the essence of this black octopus was no less than the Coral Dragon he had encountered previously.
“Class IV Top Grade…”
Wang Ba watched this giant octopus with a grave expression.
Like a tyrant, it gradually propelled itself to the position where the Demonic Beasts gathered.
Despite their lack of Spiritual Wisdom, these beasts instinctively retreated out of awe.
However, this black octopus slowly approached the Sea Barrier and then, under the constant violent currents surging from below, it was quickly swept into the Sea Barrier and pushed out of the sea surface by the currents.
What surprised Wang Ba was that a chain was attached to one tentacle of this giant octopus.
At the end of the chain was a robed figure.
The figure dressed in monk’s robes transcended age, was sitting cross-legged with eyes closed.
Its face was calm and peaceful though the chain was completely pierced through its scapula.
The moment Wang Ba’s gaze landed on the monk, the monk suddenly opened his eyes.
