Qin Xuan remained noncommittal, not saying how he obtained it, but only asking Xiaobai to help him identify the location on the map.
After such a long time, with the vast changes in the world, the mountains and rivers had long since changed.
"The current topography of various places is completely different from before, but since you are from the Ancient Era, you should be familiar with maps from the Ancient Era. Perhaps through this map, we can find some clues. Help me take a look, and if there are any benefits, I will share some with you then."
Hearing Qin Xuan's words, Xiaobai rolled his eyes and glanced at him, saying,
"You are so rude to me, why should I help you?"
Hearing this, Qin Xuan smiled and forcefully pushed the map in front of Xiaobai.
"Quickly take a look, you'll know after you do."
Xiaobai looked at the map for a while, then froze, his expression becoming serious.
"I haven't seen this place. It's really strange. This shouldn't be a map from the Ancient Era."
Hearing Xiaobai say this, Qin Xuan nodded.
"This should be a map from the Ancient Era. The Ancient Era and the Ancient Era are relatively close, so the map's differences shouldn't be significant. Do you recognize anything?"
Xiaobai looked for a long time, then suddenly his brows relaxed.
"Hmm, not bad. Although there are some differences, I can roughly recognize where it is!"
Hearing this, Qin Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Xiaobai where this place was.
And how to get there.
Xiaobai, however, rolled his eyes.
"Although I recognize it, why should I tell you?"
Before he finished speaking, a holy spirit stone was already stuffed in front of Xiaobai.
"Good stuff!"
Xiaobai excitedly salivated and was about to grab the holy spirit stone.
But Qin Xuan snatched the holy spirit stone away.
"Tell me properly, and when I find the good things inside, I will also share a portion with you. I won't hog it all, you can rest assured about that."
Hearing Qin Xuan say this, Xiaobai thought for a moment and rolled his eyes.
"Of course I know this place. Give me a current map, and I'll compare it and mark out the approximate location for you. But it's agreed, when you find this thing, you must give me a portion too."
"Don't tell me what you're looking for is ordinary. Although I don't know what you're looking for, I can tell from this map that this thing is definitely not simple. To use this kind of human skin to make a map, and for it to have been kept for so long, its value is self-evident."
Qin Xuan didn't want to keep them in suspense anymore.
"Since we're all on the same side, I'll be direct. This is a map of a Holy Medicine. As for this Holy Medicine, have you heard of the nine heavens azure leaf lotus?"
"What? It's the nine heavens azure leaf lotus!"
Xiaobai excitedly stood up and was about to grab the map.
Qin Xuan, however, calmly pulled the map back.
"Alright, this map isn't complete. I only showed you a part of it. I've naturally put away the other part of the map, so don't think about leaving me to hog it all. Shall we work together to find the nine heavens azure leaf lotus? At worst, after it's refined into a Medicinal Pill, I'll give you a portion."
"Refined into a Medicinal Pill? Don't you dare waste it!"
Xiaobai roared in anger.
"Refining Medicinal Pills, that's a crude method. For this kind of Holy Medicine, only complete consumption is best."
"At that time, you and I will each take half, which is good for everyone."
"Half for each of us?"
Qin Xuan shook his head.
"No, I get nine, you get one. I found this map, and you just helped lead the way, yet you want half? That's impossible."
"Then four-six. I get four, you get six. You get a bit more."
Qin Xuan just shook his head.
"You get three, I get seven, no more. If you agree, then we'll settle it. Otherwise, I'll find someone else to find and look at the map."
Qin Xuan threatened.
Xiaobai thought for a moment, then snatched the holy spirit stone.
"Okay, but this Spirit Stone must be mine!"
After saying that, he gnawed on the holy spirit stone, fearing Qin Xuan would go back on his word.
"Good!"
Although Xiaobai gnawing on the holy spirit stone made him feel a little pained, the nine heavens azure leaf lotus finally had a lead, which made Qin Xuan ecstatic.
"As for maps, I have some here, take a look!"
Qin Xuan's eyes flickered, and he took out the map of the entire Eastern Region.
Since this human skin scroll appeared in the Eastern Region, the place marked on this map should be in the Eastern Region, perhaps even not far from here.
Qin Xuan rubbed his hands excitedly while pondering.
As long as he could determine the location of the nine heavens azure leaf lotus, finding it wouldn't be a problem.
"Let me see!"
Xiaobai held the holy spirit stone in one paw and took the map with the other, examining it.
Since his awakening in this life, he had been to many places in the Eastern Region and recognized the Eastern Region map.
After a long time of recognition, Xiaobai pointed at the map with some uncertainty.
"It should be over here... right?"
Saying that, Xiaobai looked at Qin Xuan somewhat guiltily, his eyes darting around, looking very strange.
"Right?"
Qin Xuan squinted and pursed his lips, shaking his head in dissatisfaction.
"Can you do it? You're not just trying to trick me into giving you food and drink, are you?"
Saying that, Qin Xuan made to take back the half holy spirit stone.
"No, no, no, let me look again, let me look again!"
Xiaobai hugged the Spirit Stone and hurriedly took two more bites, staring pitifully at Qin Xuan.
"Don't play pitiful, it won't work on me. Look carefully again. If you find the nine heavens azure leaf lotus, I'll give you benefits. Look carefully yourself."
Saying that, Qin Xuan took the map and placed it in front of Xiaobai again.
This time, Xiaobai looked very seriously.
After looking for a while, Xiaobai's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and he extended his paw to point at the map.
"It should be here... maybe. Let me look again!"
Xiaobai said hurriedly, and after looking for a full half an hour, he finally nodded heavily towards the northwest of the Eastern Region.
"Here, it should be here!"
"Should?"
Looking at the serious Xiaobai, Qin Xuan pursed his lips.
"The approximate location is in the vicinity. We'll still have to go there and search!"
Seeing Qin Xuan's gaze, Xiaobai also shook his head helplessly.
"Qin Xuan, the changes in mountains and rivers between the Ancient Era and now are truly too great. There are many places I'm not very clear about. It's already very difficult to determine an approximate location."
"I can't confirm the exact location for you. I can only guarantee that it's within a hundred thousand li of this location."
Within a hundred thousand li!
Qin Xuan pursed his lips even more. This Xiaobai was truly unreliable enough.
However...
Qin Xuan thought for a moment and also nodded slightly.
Being able to determine it within a hundred thousand li, the range has actually been narrowed down a lot. As long as he gives himself enough time, he can definitely pinpoint the location.
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to the map, looking at the place Xiaobai pointed to.
"This should be a huge Desert!"
