The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

After Jiang Chuan surveyed the surroundings and confirmed that no one was following him, he closed the door in front of him and began to focus his attention on the treasure chest.

So the two began to study the formation, hoping to find a way to break it.

After some hard work.

Jiang Chuan finally discovered the pattern of the formation. He excitedly told Li Yi, "The pattern of this formation is based on the changing positions of the Big Dipper. As long as we follow this pattern, we can safely approach the treasure chest."

"The Big Dipper?" Li Yi was clearly hearing Jiang Chuan say this for the first time.

Jiang Chuan nodded and patiently explained, "The Big Dipper is a very important constellation in ancient astronomy. It is arranged in the night sky in the shape of a capital 'spoon'. The designer of this formation was probably based on the Big Dipper to create this formation that can both protect the treasure chest and confuse visitors."

Li Yi listened intently, then asked, "So what should we do? How can we break this formation according to the orientation of the Big Dipper?"

Jiang Chuan smiled and replied, "This requires us to trigger the formation in the order of the Big Dipper from the handle to the top, that is, the order of Tian Shu, Tian Xuan, Tian Ji, Tian Quan, Yu Heng, Kai Yang, and Yao Guang. Each star position corresponds to a key node in the formation. Only by activating these nodes in the correct order will the formation fail."

"Let's begin then," Li Yi said, somewhat impatiently.

Jiang Chuan nodded, picked up the compass in his hand, observed it carefully for a while, and then pointed it in a direction, "We need to go to the location of Tian Shu first."

She began to move forward in the direction Jiang Chuan had indicated, carefully avoiding the traps in the formation.

"Jiang Chuan, I'm getting closer and closer to Tian Shu. What should we do next?" Li Yi asked.

Jiang Chuan looked at the compass and replied, "Next, we need to trigger the formation in the order of the Big Dipper from the handle to the top, that is, the order of Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang."

After listening, Li Yi nodded, indicating that she understood.

She walked along, carefully triggering the nodes in the formation.

As Li Yi broke through the magic circle, the cyan beams of light dimmed one by one, and the surface lost its original luster.

Li Yi stared intently at the magic circle, following the movement of her fingers.

The beams of blue light gradually dimmed as she deciphered them.

A few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

But she didn't relax for a moment.

Because she knew that a single mistake would trigger the magic circle, at which point she and Jiang Chuan would be in a very passive position.

Li Yi's cracking speed was extremely fast; he successfully cracked a node in almost a few seconds.

As the last magic circle node closed, the cyan light curtain emanating from the room dimmed.

The treasure chest lay quietly in front of them, hanging from the roof beam.

Jiang Chuan walked up to the treasure chest and began to examine it.

It looks very old and is covered in dust.

It seems like it hasn't been touched in a long time.

Jiang Chuan carefully reached out his hand, wanting to wipe the dust off the treasure chest.

But I found my hands were trembling.

what happened?

What storms hasn't Jiangchuan weathered?

My hands were shaking with excitement because of a treasure chest?

There's something strange about this.

Just then, Li Yi noticed Jiang Chuan's unusual trembling hands and asked with slightly raised eyebrows, "What's going on?"

Jiang Chuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and replied, "I have a feeling that this treasure chest is not simple."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room became tense. Li Yi walked to Jiang Chuan's side, her eyes fixed on the treasure chest, as if she was also thinking about something.

Suddenly, the treasure chest on the roof beam made a slight creaking sound, as if some mechanism had been triggered. Jiang Chuan and Li Yi took a step back in unison, watching the treasure chest warily. The lid of the treasure chest slowly opened, and a beam of sunlight shone in through the window, illuminating the inside of the treasure chest, which was completely empty.

"Have we fallen into a trap?" Li Yi asked, noticing something was wrong.

"That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that we opened the treasure chest incorrectly?" Jiang Chuan rubbed his chin.

"Wrong pose? Don't you need to strike a pose to show off when opening a box?" Li Yi said, puzzled.

“Think about it,” Jiang Chuan explained, “If the items inside the treasure chest are valuable, there’s a high chance they’re sentient. Would a sentient treasure be easily discovered by us? It would definitely create a lot of mystery to confuse us and make us give up.”

“We need to use strange methods to trick a sentient treasure out of its body,” Jiang Chuan added.

Li Yi listened to Jiang Chuan's words and felt that they made some sense, but she was still puzzled. She looked at Jiang Chuan and said, "So what should we do now? Are we going to continue studying how to open the treasure chest here?"

Jiang Chuan smiled slightly and said, "Of course not. I think we should try to deal with this treasure chest in a different way. Since it is intelligent, we might try to communicate with it."

Li Yi looked at Jiang Chuan in surprise, "Communicate with the treasure chest? How is that possible?"

Jiang Chuan walked up to the treasure chest, gently tapped it, and said, "Treasure chest, you are an ancient legend, you are the embodiment of wisdom. Please tell us, what is your secret?"

Li Yi looked at Jiang Chuan with the same look she'd given someone who was mentally ill, "Are you serious?"

Jiang Chuan smiled but did not answer.

Just then, the treasure chest suddenly emitted a deep sound, as if responding to Jiang Chuan's words. Li Yi looked at Jiang Chuan in surprise, unable to believe what she had heard.

Jiang Chuan said to Li Yi, "It seems our communication worked. The treasure chest is telling us that its secret is hidden at the bottom of the chest."

Li Yi quickly squatted down and carefully examined the bottom of the treasure chest.

she found.

There seems to be something wrong with the wooden planks at the bottom of the treasure chest.

She carefully lifted the wooden board and discovered a hidden compartment.

"There's a hidden compartment here, should I press it?" Li Yi asked.

"Don't rush, let me double-check," Jiang Chuan said.

Jiang Chuan carefully examined the area around the hidden compartment, then nodded. "It should be fine. Press it and see."

Li Yi pressed the hidden compartment, and with a click, the compartment slowly opened. Suddenly, a ghostly hand reached out, startling Li Yi so much that she almost swore.

Although Jiang Chuan was on guard, he didn't expect this thing to suddenly appear, catching him off guard.

Li Yi and Jiang Chuan exchanged a glance, both seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.

"What...what is this?" Li Yi asked in a trembling voice.

Jiang Chuan forced himself to remain calm. He carefully observed the ghostly hand. It was fair and slender with sharp fingertips, just like a real person. But clearly, it was not a real hand, but a kind of mechanism.

"Don't be afraid, this should be some kind of mechanism. We'll just have to be careful," Jiang Chuan reassured her. Li Yi nodded, trying to calm her fear. She looked at the ghostly hand, her heart filled with questions.

Jiang Chuan, on the other hand, was thinking about how to deal with this ghostly hand.

"I'll try to push it back," Li Yi said, carefully reaching out to try and push the ghost hand back into the hidden compartment.

However, just as Li Yi was about to touch the ghost hand, the ghost hand suddenly moved. It was so fast that it grabbed Li Yi's hand and retracted into the treasure chest. She touched a sticky liquid, she didn't know what it was, but it was very viscous.

Li Yi screamed and looked at Jiang Chuan, "What should I do? My hand is stuck!"

“I’m now certain that this treasure chest and the treasure are one entity, and that they both possess sentience. I’ve decided to stimulate them with lightning,” Jiang Chuan said.

"What about me? If you use lightning, won't my hand suffer too?" Li Yi asked.

"Don't worry about that. Your body has developed an immunity to my lightning, so there's no need to worry," Jiang Chuan explained.

Although Li Yi was still a little worried, seeing Jiang Chuan's confidence, she could only choose to trust him. She closed her eyes tightly and waited for Jiang Chuan's actions.

Jiang Chuan took a deep breath, then condensed a lightning sword in his palm, merging it with the lightning power within his body, and slashed fiercely at the treasure chest. A silver-white lightning bolt instantly tore through the darkness and struck the treasure chest.

The treasure chest was instantly surrounded by lightning.

It shimmered with a blue-purple light.

Li Yi felt her hand being pulled sharply by a powerful force, and then she was successfully pulled out of the treasure chest.

She didn't even bother to check her hands; she immediately looked at the treasure chest.

The light on the treasure chest grew brighter and brighter, and finally burst forth with a strong light that illuminated the entire room.

When the light disappeared, the treasure chest was gone.

Jiang Chuan stood still, his eyes scanning his surroundings warily, as if waiting for something.

He swiftly raised his hand and reached out to grab at the void. A scroll appeared in his palm, and it spoke in a human voice: "Let me go, you cunning human."

"Is this the intelligent treasure you mentioned?" Li Yi stared intently at it, observing it closely.

“Yes, that’s right,” Jiang Chuan said.

"Young man, you have extraordinary potential. How about joining me on a great undertaking?" the scroll said to Jiang Chuan in a childlike voice.

Jiang Chuan looked at the scroll in his hand. It was covered with ancient characters. Although he couldn't understand the characters, he could feel that the scroll was emanating a primordial aura.

"Who are you? How can I believe your words?" Jiang Chuan asked.

The scroll emitted a laughing sound, like a child playing.

"I am the Spirit Scroll, a mysterious scroll with self-awareness."

"I chose to talk to you because you have a unique temperament and potential."

"I need someone to help me complete an important task, and I believe you are that person."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan pondered for a moment, then asked, "What can you offer me?"

"As long as you're willing to help me, I can make you invincible among your peers," Ling Juan said confidently.

"I'm sorry, but I'm already unbeatable among my peers," Jiang Chuan said.

"I didn't realize you had such great potential." Ling Juan snorted twice. "Let me be frank with you, I am a treasure that does not belong to this world, but comes from a world you have never known."

“An enclosed space,” Jiang Chuan said casually.

"Damn, kid, you've got potential! You even know that." Ling Juan was clearly provoked by Jiang Chuan's words.

"Then what kind of martial arts technique do you use?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"Supreme Mythical Sword Technique," Ling Juan declared, "Isn't it cool?"

"It sounds a bit corny," Jiang Chuan frowned slightly.

Although Jiang Chuan was interested in the mission Ling Juan mentioned, he did not easily trust a scroll he had just met. He knew that in this world full of mystery and danger, caution was the first rule of survival.

"What is the mission you mentioned?" Jiang Chuan pressed.

The scroll remained silent for a moment, as if considering how to describe the mission, before speaking with a hint of seriousness in its voice: "This is a mission about the balance of the world. Dark forces are attempting to break the existing order and try to rule the entire world."

"And I need your help because you possess unique knowledge that allows you to activate ancient powers and stop this disaster."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan knew that Ling Juan was being deliberately mysterious, and said, "Speak like a human."

“Cough…cough…” Ling Juan paused for a moment, “I am not the complete scroll now. There are still several other parts suppressed in various locations of the Qingyun Sect.”

"As long as you're willing to help me."

"I can let you learn the supreme mythical sword technique without any hindrance."

"How about it?"

"Doesn't that sound exciting?" Ling Juan transformed into a palm-sized child and sat in Jiang Chuan's palm, rubbing her little hands together.

Jiang Chuan looked at the child that the spirit scroll in his hand had transformed into and remained silent for a moment. Although the child looked young, he must have a remarkable background. Being able to master a skill like the Supreme Mythical Sword Technique meant he was no ordinary person.

"I'm curious about something. How could someone as powerful as you have managed to split up the Qingyun Sect?" Jiang Chuan asked, puzzled.

"This story begins three months ago."

"That day I was wandering in space when I was struck by an invisible force and brought to this world."

"At that time, I was seriously injured and was lying in front of the rest room of Qingyun Sect Master Qing Yinyan."

"Speaking of which, I'm also unlucky. It's because of her that I've become like this." Ling Juan crossed her legs, her expression disdainful.

"And then what happened?" Li Yi asked, becoming more and more interested as she listened.

"Later, I undeniably let Qing Yinyan find out."

"She was muttering about where the trash came from, but she picked me up."

"The moment she opened me, she was completely stunned. I can understand why she was like that, because I am too powerful."

"But this is the first time she has seen such a powerful scroll as mine." The scroll, feeling a little thirsty, reached out from Jiang Chuan's palm and placed it on Li Yixiang's shoulder, saying to her, "Do you have any milk? I'm thirsty, I need to drink some milk to replenish my strength."

Li Yi was taken aback at first, then blushed and whispered, "I...I don't have it here."

Lingjuan was a little disappointed, but then she saw something and her eyes lit up. "Your place is so big, how could there not be any? Give me some to drink, don't be so stingy." She hugged Li Yixiang's cheek with her little hands and said coquettishly.

Li Yi's face flushed even more, and she hurriedly covered her chest with her hands, whispering, "Don't talk nonsense, how could I possibly... how could I possibly give you anything to drink?" (End of Chapter)
