Chapter 33 - Hidden Map

On the way, Su Mu had once asked himself if he should just stay and not escape.

However, as soon as this thought appeared, it was directly rejected.

His original plan was to choose how far to run according to the size of the tribe they had established.

If the tribe had a few dozen people, he would escape and hide for more than ten years. After Rong's tribe was destroyed, he would return to save Rong and Xi.

He would not return to medium-sized or large tribes. However, he would return every few years to find Rong and Xi and communicate with them…

After all, the two of them were also guys who could live long…

However, he never expected the tribe he established to be the overlord of the first era!

A huge tribe that was going to dominate for nearly ten thousand years was also the main plot target of the players.

Su Mu had never thought that he could change anything. He also only vaguely remembered the general story of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Otherwise, the stories of the past emperors he told Rong would not have been different every time he told it.

Moreover, Su Mu was an Immortal. His greatest wish was to live this long life in peace and stability until the seventh era.

He wanted to see if it was going to be the same as his previous life and if he could still meet the person he was familiar with. He had also been fighting for this goal.

200 years might be a long time for others, but to Su Mu, this was only a small part of his long life.

Su Mu would not, and there was no need for him to bind his long life to the Fire Tribe, which was destined to be overthrown, for the sake of this short one to two hundred years of interaction.

Moreover, Su Mu was even the first plot boss in the eyes of future players. For his own safety, he could only cultivate. After cultivating the breathing technique to the divine level, he would not have to worry about the threat of players for at least two eras!

If he followed the Fire Tribe and used the Fire Tribe to dominate and expand, as the totem, how could he possibly live a stable life?

Therefore, for the safety of his long life in the future, the best way was to escape.

Moreover, he ran away very heartlessly and no longer wanted anything to do with them. He would pursue his longevity path while Rong and Xi pursued the path of their tribe's domination.

All these years, Su Mu had taught the two of them the Longevity Breathing Technique and the four elemental breathing techniques. He did not owe the two of them anything.

Thinking of this, Su Mu ran even faster…

His destination was the Northern Region.

Now that the Fire Tribe was established in the Eastern Region, he could not hide there.

The Southern Region was the future main battlefield of the Fire Tribe, so it was even more impossible for him to return.

The Western Region… was too stable.

It just so happened that the North Region was also an area with many wars. At this moment, the Fire Tribe's enemy in the first era, the Heavenly Fate Enemy Tribe was expanding there.

He would be able to touch corpses at any time… Pfft, to develop at any time.

Moreover, it might be thousands of years later before they arrived in the North Region.

At that time, the two of them might even forget about him.

At the entrance of the Fire Tribe.

Rong waited from dawn to sunset.

The Lord Totem he had been thinking about had still not appeared…

Rong had a guess in his heart, but he was not sure…

"Xi, let's go back and take a look. Since Lord Totem did not appear, could it be…"

Xi was overjoyed and instantly understood what Rong meant. Her face revealed an indescribable excitement.

The two of them looked at each other. After instructing the tribal warriors beside them, they ran towards the Water Curtain Cave.

It took them two hours.

When the two of them returned, the shore was the same as when they left. On the burning kindling, there was a roasting rack made of iron branches.

Xi stayed here and took out a piece of ferocious beast meat to roast.

Rong walked towards Su Mu's cave…

"Lord?!"

There was no response from the cave…

"Lord?!"

There was still no response from the cave…

"Lord, I'm coming in?"

Rong headed into the cave…

"Lord, I'm here!"

Inside the cave, it was pitch-black. He circulated the Fire Element Breathing Technique, making his fingers turn into fire sticks as flames burned on them.

With the help of the flames, he could see the scene in the cave clearly.

The place where his Lord Totem originally sat was empty. Other than Rong's weak breathing, there was no other sound in the entire cave.

At this moment, he understood!

He thought of many things.

He recalled the story Su Mu had once told him, the combat style Su Mu had once taught him, as well as the completely unexpected things Su Mu told him.

In the end, Rong recalled the other three breathing techniques Lord Totem had taught him yesterday…

"I see. Lord, have you really completed your mission and returned to the totem world?"

There had always been a legend in this wilderness.

That was, in the early stages of the tribe's construction, the totem of the tribe would descend and teach the tribe the way to survive. After the tribe learned it, the totem would return to the totem world.

It was a magical world unique to totems.

"Lord, don't worry. I definitely won't let you down!"

Rong walked out of the cave with an excited expression and jumped out to the shore.

"Xi, Lord Totem has returned to the totem world!"

Xi, who was roasting meat, was stunned for a moment before saying excitedly, "What?! Did Lord Totem really return to the totem world?! Rong… We… We've finally obtained Lord Totem's recognition!"

"That's right! We did what Dad and Mom couldn't do!"

The ferocious beast meat sizzled on the roasted meat. Xi thought of something and suddenly said, "Eh? Then where did Lord Black Egg go?"

"Uh… It should have returned to the totem world together with Lord Totem, right?"

At the border of the Eastern Region.

Su Mu looked at the thin layer of restriction in front of him and was somewhat stunned.

[First era hidden map. Entry requirements: Spirit/Physique ≥ 200, or level ≥ 30.]

[By exploring the mysterious map, you can obtain rewards]

[Prompt: First time entering the hidden map to explore, you have obtained Spirit+5, Physique+5, Universal Technique Fragment*10 (High Grade)]

"Hidden map?"

This was something no one had ever talked about…

That made sense. The threshold was too high. It required one's Spirit or Physique to at least be over 200 points or they at least needed to be over level 30. In Su Mu's impression, in the first era of God Advent, the highest level of the player had just broken through to level 25…

Even Su Mu had only barely satisfied the conditions.

[Su Mu: Level 1 [Locked]]

[Physique: 200 (160+40)]

[Spirit: 196 (156+40)]

[Talent: Immortality.]

[Cultivation Technique: Five Elements Breathing Technique (high level A-), Berserker Body (A-), Spirit (A-).]

[Identity: Civilization Guide, Plot Boss (1).]

Initially, Su Mu wondered if he should enter or not. However, when Su Mu saw the introduction of the ten cultivation technique fragments that could replace a high level S+ cultivation technique, he no longer hesitated…

He lowered his head and looked at the black egg…

"Black Egg, let's bid farewell here. I have no choice. You can't enter the place I'm prepared to go!

If it's difficult for you to survive, go and find Xi and the others. I believe Xi will still be very happy to be with you."

With that said, Su Mu did not linger and walked towards the light membrane…

The black egg was stunned on the spot. It did not understand when it saw Su Mu walking towards a familiar place.

Why couldn't it also enter?
