Chapter 109

It was a mysterious and magnificent place, where we encountered the unknown and attempted to engage in dialogue with the ancient. When Yanzhu and her companions entered, they were struck by the beauty and wonder of the place. Yanzhu smoothed the corner of her azure robe, her long hair, tied up high, swaying constantly with her steps. Though it was not her first time here, she still offered a look of appropriately feigned surprise. This was an intercontinental expanse—an island in its entirety, shaped like a crescent moon, overgrown with lush, obscure spiritual plants. Most of these plants possessed a degree of sentience, and a vast array of creatures emerged one after another. High noon and the dead of night converged in the sky above, gorgeous and mesmerizing, while a colossal new moon hung suspended in the light-and-dark intersection.
