Small Space

Rumble—!

Accompanied by an earth-shaking roar, the golden palace finally broke free from the lake's restraints and burst through the water!

Billions of acres of black lake water cascaded down the palace's body, turning into inverted waterfalls that crashed thunderously back onto the lake, sending waves soaring into the sky. The palace rose higher and higher until it finally hovered a hundred zhang above Ghost Lake, where it came to a steady stop.

In an instant, golden light blazed in every direction! The radiance seemed almost tangible, spreading outward from the divine palace in all directions.

Within dozens of miles, the grayish-white mist that lingered year-round was entirely dyed a brilliant gold beneath that light. Clouds and fog churned, countless rays of rosy light shone, and the entire world was painted as though a divine kingdom had descended.

"Minggu Divine Temple..."

Lu Changsheng raised his head, the golden palace reflected in his pupils, and his heart shook to its core.

Viewing it from up close, he could feel even more keenly the temple's grandeur and antiquity. It stood a hundred zhang tall, towering like a mountain. Its body was covered in the scars of time—ravines of varying depths and patches of dark-brown mottling, silently recounting the long years it had endured.

The temple walls were carved with countless intricate, ancient patterns: primordial divine dragons that overturned rivers and seas, ten-thousand-year divine turtles holding pearls in their mouths and spitting auspicious light, ancient Sea Emperors wielding tridents as they strode upon the waves, and all manner of prehistoric beasts never heard of or seen before... Every image was lifelike, carrying an ancient, weighty, supreme aura that made anyone who looked upon them feel insignificant and unable to resist the urge to kneel in worship.

"Damn... this palace is huge..."
