Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 577 - 594: White Tiger Clan

This night was another sleepless night; similar events were unfolding in both rooms, with an unspoken understanding between them.

Ouyang Qian lay in Chu Linfeng's arms and asked, "Lin Feng, why don't you show us the regions map? Is there a secret? And what do you want the Moonlight Stones for? What's their use?"

"Moonlight Stones are essential for entering the Netherworld. Do you think they're useful? I'm not taking out the regions map because I'm afraid it might dampen everyone's spirits. Who knows if it contains information about returning to the Celestial Dragon Empire," Chu Linfeng replied.

"Take it out and have a look; there's no one else here, so let Qian'er know the results," Ouyang Qian suggested.

Chu Linfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, let's hope it doesn't disappoint us." With that, he took out the regions map given to him by that middle-aged man.

Chu Linfeng and Ouyang Qian sat up and slowly opened the map to take a look. They found that none of the marked locations matched any known countries or ones they had heard of, as if they had entered a foreign world.

"How could this be? Could we not return? What exactly is going on?" Ouyang Qian said, feeling perplexed.

"Don't worry, there's certainly a teleportation gate somewhere here. Since people here know about Canglan Ancient Land, it means someone has been there. We might find some clues by asking around tomorrow," Chu Linfeng said.

In fact, he was even more anxious than Ouyang Qian because if they missed Yang Rui's martial arts competition, and she ended up becoming someone else's wife, it would be the last thing he'd want to see.

Even though Yang Rui was just an ordinary woman, her deep love profoundly touched Chu Linfeng, which was why he agreed to her previously. Now being stuck in this unknown place is utterly frustrating.

The next day, the four of them woke up early, did a simple wash, and headed out, straight to the inn's entrance, where the middle-aged man was already waiting for Chu Linfeng.

Seeing them come out, he immediately approached and said, "Good morning, young master! Here is the Moonlight Stone you need. Take a look if it's the right one."

The middle-aged man took out a milky-white stone, transparent and a bit similar to crystal. Chu Linfeng took it and commented, "This is exactly what I need. You've given me what I wanted, so we owe each other nothing. However, I have a question I need you to answer."

"Please ask, young master. If I know, I will tell you everything," the middle-aged man said.

"Do you have a teleportation gate here? We need to return to the Celestial Dragon Empire. Have you heard of it?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"Teleportation gate? We don't have one here, but there's one in Qingzhou Country that everyone knows about. Why are you looking for the teleportation gate? I don't know the Celestial Dragon Empire you're talking about," the middle-aged man inquired.

"Qingzhou Country? Do you know where this teleportation gate leads?" Chu Linfeng asked, noting that Qingzhou Country seemed to be located east of the Moon Spirit Country according to the map last night.

"The teleportation gate is said to have been left by the White Tiger Race. When a Sovereign of Qingzhou Country saved an Elder of the White Tiger Race, a teleportation gate was specifically built in return. If Qingzhou Country faces danger, they can use the gate to go to the White Tiger Race, who would help them resolve the crisis," explained the middle-aged man.

Chu Linfeng and the others exchanged silent looks. The more they heard, the more mysterious it became. The existence of the White Tiger Race here was something they hadn't even considered, and they wondered whether this White Tiger Race could be the Holy Beast White Tiger.

"Alright, we got it. You can go about your business, and we'll head to the White Tiger Race to take a look," Chu Linfeng said.

Immediately, the four launched themselves into the air, flying east toward Qingzhou Country, while the middle-aged man commented, "The teleportation gate hasn't been used for thousands of years, so even if you reach it, it might be futile. To be honest, our Moon Spirit Country also has a teleportation gate, but it's been sealed by powerful individuals. I can't be blamed for not speaking the truth before finishing my words."

Chu Linfeng was unaware that if they listened to the middle-aged man till the end, subsequent events wouldn't occur. The teleportation gate in Moon Spirit Country led to the Sea Dragon Empire, perhaps predestined as Chu Linfeng's mysterious encounter.

"Lin Feng, is there any way to return to the Celestial Dragon Empire on that regions map?" Chu Linyue asked.

"No, this place is entirely unfamiliar to us. We can only visit the White Tiger Race for potential clues, though I don't know if they are the Holy Beast White Tiger. If they are, you should remain in Qingzhou Country. Remember that the Holy Beast White Tiger has Saint Martial Realm experts, and those individuals are extraordinarily formidable," Chu Linfeng said.

"We'll figure it out later. I don't understand why we're here. Did the Celestial Ape make a mistake?" Chu Linyue questioned in frustration.

"I can't say for sure either. Let's keep moving and get to Qingzhou Country to find answers sooner," Chu Linfeng said.

The Moon Spirit Country is indeed vast, several times larger than the Celestial Dragon Empire. It took Chu Linfeng and the others about four days of flying to reach Qingzhou Country, with over ten stops for rest. Chu Linfeng even showcased his fish grilling skills once, allowing Ouyang Qian and the others to feast.

Upon arriving in Qingzhou Country, Chu Linfeng and the others didn't stay long but instead inquired about the teleportation gate's location, learning that it was in the Imperial City, and headed directly there. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Unlike Moon Spirit Country, Qingzhou Country is much more prosperous in terms of peace, with many places even daring to leave doors unlocked at night. Upon reaching the Imperial City, they didn't need the City Entry Token but simply paid the City Entry Fee, which saved much hassle.

At a vast square in the Imperial City, Chu Linfeng witnessed the teleportation gate—an ancient gateway that seemed possibly unusable. Yet, Chu Linfeng wasn't too worried, as he knew Sword Spirit could handle it.

"Let's find a place to settle down. We need to repair the teleportation gate before using it. Meanwhile, we can gather information about the White Tiger Race, which might be useful to us," Chu Linfeng stated.

"Let's investigate separately. Many people might know about the White Tiger Race, but their stories will differ. By hearing from various sources, we might piece together the answer we need!" Ouyang Qian proposed.

"Qian'er's idea is good, but let's first find a place to stay. Leave the intelligence gathering to you guys; I'll see if the teleportation gate can be used; otherwise, we'll be in trouble later," Chu Linfeng said.

A few minutes after the four departed, the teleportation gate emitted a white light, and an elderly figure with white hair emerged...
