Stellar Transformation-Chapter 385: Volume 13, - 5, Mysterious God Scroll
Cuiyun Star, within Man Qian’s residence in the Imperial City.
Qin Yu had been waiting in the living room for Man Qian, who had gone to the Communication Secret Array to communicate with the Bull Demon Emperor. At the moment, only Qin Yu and the three brothers Shi Xin were present in the hall, and Qin Yu’s gaze fell on Si Zhan.
A thought crossed Qin Yu’s mind.
Si Zhan was Little Black’s Spiritual Beast and should be able to sense Little Black’s whereabouts.
"Si Zhan, you should be able to sense where my third brother is, right? Do you know where he is?" Qin Yu immediately asked.
Si Zhan nodded, "Lord Qin Yu, I can sense the location of my master. He should be in the northeast direction, very far from here."
"Northeast?"
Qin Yu’s brows furrowed. The northeast was too vague a description—according to the map, the territory of the Dragon Clan, the Feiqin Clan, and even the Dark Star Realm could be considered northeast.
"Lord, Lord Hou Fei once took me to search for my master. At that time, I discovered that my master was in the Feiqin Clan’s territory, but I’m not sure exactly where." Si Zhan said, somewhat helplessly.
"Feifei went to look for him? What was the result?" Qin Yu pressed.
Si Zhan shook his big head, "At that time, my master was going to search in the Feiqin Clan’s territory. However, we were intercepted by His Majesty the Great Ape Emperor on the way, and Lord Hou Fei was forcibly taken back by His Majesty."
"Forcibly taken back?" Qin Yu watched Si Zhan, waiting for him to explain.
"The Feiqin Clan and us have some disputes." Man Qian walked in from outside, "Brother Qin Yu, Hou Fei, as a Fire-Eyed Water Ape and a Super Divine Beast, how could he carelessly put himself in danger? With the strength of a Demon King, wandering in the Feiqin Clan’s territory, the Great Ape Emperor would not allow it."
Qin Yu understood.
Even as a Super Divine Beast, being only at the Demon King level, his attack power must be very low; venturing into the Feiqin Clan’s territory could mean being killed by someone at any moment.
"Brother Man Qian, did you get any results from communicating with the Bull Demon Emperor just now?" Qin Yu followed up.
Man Qian smiled, "Wait three more days. After His Majesty communicated with me, he immediately set off to return. As for where Hou Fei is... according to His Majesty’s words, he said to tell you that without His Majesty’s help, you can’t reach him either."
Qin Yu was taken aback.
Where exactly was Hou Fei? That place seemed quite mysterious.
"No worries, just wait for three days. By then His Majesty himself will help, and you will definitely be able to reunite with your brother Hou Fei," Man Qian patted Qin Yu’s shoulder and comforted him.
Qin Yu nodded, "That’s the only option."
"Lord Qin Yu, there’s something I don’t know whether I should mention, it’s about my master." Si Zhan, who was standing aside, looked toward Qin Yu.
Little Black?
Qin Yu’s eyes lit up.
"Speak," Qin Yu looked at Si Zhan.
Si Zhan’s expression turned serious, "As my master’s Spiritual Beast, I can always sense the general location of my master. But starting from before Lord Hou Fei went to search for my master, I found... my master’s location has been moving over a large area."
"A large area?" Qin Yu’s expression changed.
Si Zhan was so far from the Feiqin Clan and yet he could sense Little Black’s movements over a wide area. What was Little Black doing wandering around the Feiqin Clan’s territory?
"Yes, over a large area, at least within the range of seven or eight Star Domains," Si Zhan nodded.
"Being pursued!" The word popped into Qin Yu’s head, and he couldn’t help feeling tense.
Little Black had grown up with him since he was small, close as brothers. If Little Black was really in that kind of situation, then...
"No, according to what Brother Wu Ming said, he had never heard of the Feiqin Clan, aside from Zong Jue, having any formidable Upper-Level or Super Divine Beasts ascend. Little Black has the Inheritance Memory, but the Eagle Clan doesn’t have a Divine Beast like Little Black. Little Black likely belongs to a type of Divine Beast not seen in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Worlds."
Qin Yu thought quickly in his mind.
"Little Black had just arrived in the Demon World, still weak. Even if he had enemies, they wouldn’t be very strong. His wide range of movement might be for other reasons," Qin Yu negated the possibility of ’being pursued’ in his mind.

As for the current situation of Little Black, one of the three brothers, Hei Yu, Qin Yu had no idea. As for Hou Fei, he was in a mysterious place, and to reach that place, Qin Yu had to wait another three days.
For the return of the Bull Demon Emperor.
At this time, Qin Yu was unaware that Emperor Yu of the Immortal Realm had already made a breakthrough and become a Ninth Level Immortal Emperor. After chatting with Man Qian for half a day, Qin Yu was arranged by Man Qian to his accommodation and directly entered the Jiang Lan Realm.
Inside the Jiang Lan Realm.
The Jiang Lan Realm contained various kinds of buildings, and the residence Qin Yu had chosen back then was very close to Wu Lan’s. Just as Qin Yu arrived at his place, Wu Lan came over.
"Qin Yu, you’re here," Wu Lan said with a smile.
Qin Yu smiled helplessly, "I had no choice. Now I have to wait for the Bull Demon Emperor to return. I’m more accustomed to cultivating quietly inside the Jiang Lan Realm. Ah, by the way."
Qin Yu suddenly remembered something.
The Mysterious God Scroll!
Immortal Emperor Ni Yang had warned that the scroll could only be opened by someone of Emperor Level.
"Immortal Emperor Ni Yang made this Mysterious God Scroll sound so extraordinary, and figures like Emperor Yu regarded it highly, even claiming it to be the foremost treasure of the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Worlds. I want to see what kind of treasure it is," Qin Yu said to himself.
Qin Yu took out the ’Mysterious God Scroll’ with a flip of his hand.
Seeing the Mysterious God Scroll in Qin Yu’s hand, Wu Lan’s eyes shone brightly, "The Mysterious God Scroll!"
"Mr. Lan, you know about this Mysterious God Scroll, too?" Qin Yu looked at Wu Lan.
Wu Lan chuckled, "Won’t you know as soon as you open it?"
Qin Yu nodded and began to stir the Black Hole Power inside his body, pouring it into the Mysterious God Scroll in his hand. Under the assault of the Black Hole Power, the Divine Restriction laid by Immortal Emperor Ni Yang was finally broken.
As the restriction broke, Qin Yu’s eyes brightened.
The Mysterious God Scroll exuded an enchanting light, and wave after wave of star chart-like patterns flitted out from the scroll. They emerged and then dissipated into nothingness. Qin Yu performed blood recognition to claim ownership, and his immortal consciousness immediately penetrated it.
Strange symbols, along with various peculiar lights, swirled rapidly within the Mysterious God Scroll.
"What is this?" Qin Yu was utterly perplexed.
Looking at Wu Lan, Qin Yu asked with confusion, "Mr. Lan, this Mysterious God Scroll is said to be the number one treasure in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms. Yet, why do I not see its value?"
Wu Lan shook his head with a smile and said, "Haven’t you noticed anything unusual about the Mysterious God Scroll, something that sets it apart from other divine artifacts?"
"It is strange enough. I’ve performed blood recognition, but I cannot see what is so precious about it", Qin Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile.
Wu Lan sighed in exasperation and said, "All right, I’ll just tell you directly. There’s a reason the Mysterious God Scroll is named the number one treasure in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms. But first, let me ask you something. Where do the divine artifacts in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms come from?"
Qin Yu was taken aback.
Right, divine artifacts could only be refined by those from the Divine World. How then, could there be divine artifacts in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms? Could it be that someone from the Divine World had come to these realms, specifically to bestow divine artifacts upon their denizens?
Seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Wu Lan laughed and said, "I’ll tell you that millions of years ago, there were no divine artifacts in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms."
"Oh?" Qin Yu’s eyes lit up, "Mr. Lan, are you saying all the changes began millions of years ago?"
Wu Lan nodded and said, "Yes, millions of years ago, an extremely mysterious Divine Palace descended from the Divine World to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms. This Divine Palace contained many divine artifacts, and that is where the divine artifacts of these realms originated from."
"The Divine World, a Divine Palace?" Qin Yu listened intently.
"Yes, this Divine Palace is called the ’Mishen Palace’."
"Mishen Palace?" Qin Yu was startled. He had heard the name Mishen Palace several times before. So, this Mishen Palace was such an incredible place, the source of all divine artifacts in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms.
Wu Lan lamented, "The Mishen Palace was the sacred palace of an extremely eminent being in the Divine World. For some unknown reason, the master of the Mishen Palace brought it to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms."
"Qin Yu, you should know..." Wu Lan’s face was filled with regret, "it is because of the Mishen Palace that I came here."
Qin Yu nodded.
Wu Lan had once told him that he was a Divine Beast from the Divine World. The reason for his arrival in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms was the Mishen Palace. Qin Yu naturally inferred... that when the Mishen Palace descended to these realms, Wu Lan must have been inside it.
Thus, Wu Lan was brought to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms by the Mishen Palace.
"When the Mishen Palace descended to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast Realms, I was utterly unable to leave it. I’ve been trapped in a certain place within the Mishen Palace... Just like that, one day, someone entered the Mishen Palace and was attacked by me," Wu Lan said with a faint smile.
With a tinge of amusement on his face, he continued, "That person, after being attacked by me, suddenly ran outside of the restriction. And I, myself, simply could not leave the confines of that binding restriction... Later, that person threatened me, saying if I entered the Ten Thousand Beasts List, he would take me out of the Mishen Palace."
"It was Immortal Emperor Ni Yang," Qin Yu guessed at that moment.
Wu Lan nodded, "Although I come from the Divine World, I had no way to overcome the countless Divine Restrictions within the Mishen Palace. However, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang had a way to navigate through them."
"Why?" Qin Yu pressed further.
"Because of the Mysterious God Scroll," Wu Lan sighed, "The master of the Mishen Palace was also a significant figure in the Divine World. The restrictions in his palace are such that even those from the Divine World might struggle to break through, hence one can only traverse according to the paths he set."
"That path can only be found with the Mysterious God Scroll," Wu Lan said gravely.
"No, that’s not right," Qin Yu puzzledly spoke. "There isn’t any path in this Mysterious God Scroll, just strange symbols and extraordinary light. There’s no path at all."
Wu Lan chuckled. "The paths within the Mishen Palace change every moment. Without the Mysterious God Scroll, one could only venture through the Outer Domain at great risk and entering the Inner Domain would mean certain death."
Qin Yu was taken aback.
So the paths in the Mishen Palace were constantly changing; it seemed that having a map of the paths was useless.
"As long as you carry the Mysterious God Scroll into the Mishen Palace, it will naturally display the paths. Similarly... the passages shown on the Mysterious God Scroll are also constantly changing," Wu Lan smiled at Qin Yu, "now you understand the value of the Mysterious God Scroll, don’t you, Qin Yu?"
"A map," Qin Yu thought to himself, "could it truly be considered the number one treasure of the Immortal, Demon, and Demon World?"
Seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Wu Lan couldn’t help but smile wryly. "Qin Yu, do you have any idea how many Emperor-level experts have entered the Mishen Palace over the past tens of millions of years seeking divine artifacts, only to lose their lives in the process? The divine artifacts of Emperor Yu and Emperor Xuan were obtained by luck in the Outer Domain of the Mishen Palace."
"There are such good divine artifacts in the Outer Domain?" Qin Yu had seen the divine artifacts of Emperor Yu and Emperor Xuan, which together were considered Upper Grade Divine Artifacts.
Wu Lan shook his head. "The divine artifacts in the Outer Domain are relatively low-level, and it’s rare to find any good ones. The real treasures are gathered within the Inner Domain."
"When Immortal Emperor Ni Yang first explored the Mishen Palace, he stumbled upon the Mysterious God Scroll. With its help, he was able to walk safely in the Outer Domain and obtained Divine Artifacts like the Heaven Breaking Divine Sword, the Battle Robe Black Condensed Snow... and so on, totaling twelve divine artifacts," Wu Lan said indifferently.
Qin Yu was indeed surprised.
Twelve? That many.
"Qin Yu, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang’s skills were weak initially. Even with the safest paths displayed by the Mysterious God Scroll, he could only venture in the Outer Domain. Back then, he really did obtain twelve divine artifacts, some of which he gave to friends, others placed within the Ni Yang Realm. At that time, you, Man Qian, and Zong Jue each obtained your own divine artifacts, didn’t you? And even now, divine artifacts still exist within the Ni Yang Realm, specifically within its Nine-layered Heaven," said Wu Lan.
Qin Yu was greatly shocked.
In the Ni Yang Realm’s Nine-layered Heaven, the divine artifacts on the third layer, layers seven, eight, and nine had been claimed by Qin Yu, Man Qian, and Zong Jue. And yet, there were still more to be found there.
"That was Ni Yang’s first visit to Mishen Palace. Later on, with his reputation bolstered by those divine artifacts and increased power, he made a name for himself. But other great experts were all suspicious about how Ni Yang could have obtained so many divine artifacts," Wu Lan chuckled. "Qin Yu, you should know, Emperors Yu, Xuan, and others spent countless heart efforts and visited numerous times, picking up a few divine artifacts just by luck. Ni Yang got twelve in just one go, and at that time he was still very weak, making everyone suspicious."
Qin Yu nodded; if he were Emperor Yu or others, he would have been suspicious too.
"The secret of the Mysterious God Scroll eventually leaked, it’s just unfortunate that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang trusted his close confidants too much. Later... on his second venture into the Mishen Palace, with the strength of an Eighth Level Immortal Emperor and the paths displayed by the Mysterious God Scroll, he was prepared to broach the Inner Domain of the Mishen Palace."
Wu Lan said with a faint smile, "That time, he died, having shaken off Emperors Yu, Xuan, and others, just as he stepped into the range of the Inner Domain, he stepped on a poisonous insect from the Divine World."
"Qin Yu, you should understand the priceless value of the Mysterious God Scroll now. With it... in the Mishen Palace, you can pick up divine artifacts as if you were picking up trash, and when your abilities are higher, you can even rely on the Mysterious God Scroll to penetrate the Inner Domain of the Mishen Palace. And without it... even the inhabitants of the Divine World would not dare to enter the Inner Domain of the Mishen Palace; that is the private domain of the owner of the Mishen Palace."
Having heard so much from Wu Lan, Qin Yu truly realized the importance of the Mysterious God Scroll.
With it, in the Outer Domain of the Mishen Palace, divine artifacts were easy to obtain. The title of the number one treasure of the Immortal, Demon, and Demon World was indeed beyond question.
