Chapter 127 Ch 127: Outline Of The World (5)
Rosy gave the thing in her hand to Alex and said, "Senior Alex, thanks for saving me. I don't have anything to repay you with. This is the heirloom of my family that was passed down from generation to generation. I'll give it to you!"
"No no!" Alex shook his head, saying, "Since it is your family's heirloom, you should keep it to yourself. Anyway, I didn't save you for any reward."
Rosy shook her head, saying, "My family is gone, so it doesn't matter if I keep the Heirloom or not. Anyway, I can't use it. Maybe you can find some ways to use it!"
"Your family is gone? What happened?" Alex was surprised. He didn't expect such a lovely little girl to have already experienced the pain of losing her family.
When Rosy thought of her family, tears appeared in her eyes. But she forcefully suppressed her emotions and didn't let the tears roll down her eyes. She sniffed a little and replied, "My family was attacked and annihilated by a person. That person is the core disciple of our sect. My sole reason to enter the sect is to become stronger and kill that person. I don't know if I'll be alive or not, so leaving the heirloom to you, my saviour, is a much better option. Please take it. Don't refuse!"
Alex took a deep breath. Ripples appeared in his eyes and he wanted to say something. But in the end, he didn't say anything. He extended his hand took the heirloom from Rosy and asked a question: "What is it?"
"A book!" Rosy replied. Taking a deep breath, she said, "There was a legend my family believed in. They believed that my family is the descendent of the strongest cultivator ever to appear in our world. That cultivator was extremely powerful and dominated the entire world. He ruled over the world for thousands of years. And one day, he tore open the sky and disappeared somewhere. No one knows where he went. He left behind many treasures that were divided among the family of that cultivator."
"My ancestor was one of the family members and he was the weakest. He didn't get any other treasure but only a book. However, many people didn't want to let my ancestor keep the book. They ambushed my ancestor and almost killed him. My ancestor somehow managed to save his life and escaped, however, the book was torn into two pieces. My ancestor only managed to keep one piece and the other piece was lost."
"My family believes as long as we can search for the other part of the book and complete it, we'll know what this book is about. However, even after thousands of years have passed, no one was able to locate the other part of the book. As for this part of the book, it is completely blank."
When Alex heard this, his eyes shone with a strange light. He had some guesses in his heart and found them hard to believe.
If what he guessed is really the truth, then it'll really be too unbelievable.
Is there really such a coincidence?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly removed the cloth and a torn book appeared in front of his eyes. The front of this book was not there, only the half of the book from the bottom was there.
Looking at the book, Alex's breath was hurried. For some reason, he felt that he has stumbled upon the greatest treasure of the world by luck and he was the luckiest person alive!
Shifting his gaze from the book, he looked at Rosy and said, "Do you believe in fate?"
"I don't understand what you are saying?" Rosy revealed a confused expression and said.
Alex smiled and was about to say something when his gaze fell on Reshma and the other two men. Taking a deep breath, he stopped and only said, "We'll talk about this later."
.....
Alex, who was watching everything in a third-person view, also revealed a strange expression. He also found it unbelievable for such a coincidence and luck to exist. He was still looking at everything when the scene he was watching once again changed.
The scenery now was that of a mountain cliff. This mountain cliff was exactly the place where Alex used to practice. Currently, Alex was leading Rosy somewhere. He brought Rosy to the corner of the cliff. Then he gestured at her and jumped down.
Rosy was startled and exclaimed in shock. She was scared and didn't know what to do. She thought of telling the sect elders about Alex jumping down the cliff, however, at this moment, Alex's voice echoed, telling her to jump down and see magic.
Rosy didn't expect to hear Alex's voice even though he had clearly jumped down the cliff. She was puzzled and started struggling internally, for she didn't know if she should really believe in Alex and jump down.
After a few seconds of struggle, she once again heard Alex's voice calling her. This time, she clenched her hand and decided to jump down. Taking a deep breath, she jumped down the cliff. She was falling rapidly. Scared, she started screaming as she closed her eyes.
However, instead of any help, she heard familiar laughter. She opened her eyes and saw Alex floating in the air and laughing while looking at her. She was once again confused. She looked around and found herself floating in mid-air for some reason.
It has to be known that both of them were just Enlightenment Stage martial warriors. Their strength was nowhere near the cultivators who could fly. It is known that only Golden Core Stage martial warriors and above could fly in the air, however, for some reason, Alex and Rosy were floating right now.
Rosy was shocked when she found that it was not an illusion. She was really floating in the air and the surprising thing was that she was not controlling her body.
Looking at Alex, she asked, "Senior Alex, what is this place? How are we floating in the air?"
Alex smiled and replied, "Well, even I don't know the reason. I used to practice on the cliff and one day, I accidentally fell down and discovered this place. This place is strange. Some kind of strange power doesn't let us fall. You see there..."
Rosy looked in the direction Alex pointed to and saw a cave's mouth in the mountain's wall. She was surprised and again looked at Alex. Alex continued to say, "I think some mystery is hidden inside that cave. If we want to go down or above, we won't be able to buzz from our place. However, if we want to go to that cave, a mysterious force will bring us there. There is a teleportation circle inside the cave that can teleport us to the top of the mountain cliff."
"Last time I arrived here, I didn't find anything inside the cave. But this cave always gives me the feeling that some secret is hidden inside. It is just that my eyesight and strength are not enough to discover the secret. Let's go there and I'll show you why I brought you here!"
Rosy and Alex willed to go to the cave and a mysterious force enveloped their bodies. Rosy was once again surprised to see that she was really being pulled by a mysterious force toward the cave.
After some time, both of them arrived in front of the entrance of the cave. When their legs touched the ground, they entered the cave and started going deeper. As they went deeper, they found that the space around them seemed to be enlarging. Very soon, they appeared in a wide-open space. This place was about 100 sq. meters.
As Alex told her, Rosy saw a teleportation circle at one of the corners. Other than the teleportation circle, there was nothing inside the cave. But she also had the same feeling as Alex. She had the feeling that there is really some sort of secret hidden inside.
But this was not the reason why they arrived here. Rosy looked at Alex, waiting for his explanation.
Alex nodded at her and took out a torn book. Rosy was surprised to see Alex taking out her family's heirloom. She didn't know what Alex wanted to do, thus showing a puzzled expression on her face. But this expression changed to the expression of being shocked when Alex once again took the other piece of this torn book. The front part of her heirloom!
"This is...?"
Rosy was really shocked. She looked at Alex and her heart was immediately filled with overwhelming emotions. She didn't know what to say at the moment. She kept her hand on her mouth, closing it.
Alex said, "Didn't I tell you I have something that'll shock you. Here it is. I have the front part of your family's heirloom. This book is called the Outline Of The World. I'm not completely sure what this book is about. But I know that it must be related to our world!"
"As you have said, you and your family were the descendent of the owner of this book. I thought it'll be better for you to be present and explore the secret of this book with me!"
