Within Willow Grove Temple, the stone that looked utterly ordinary by day now seemed to have opened a skylight...

Through that "skylight"...

Inside the stone lay an endless river of stars.

Within the starry river stood an ancient Stone Tablet.

Atop the Stone Tablet grew a bare little tree with only a single branch. More than a dozen leaves hung from that branch, each radiating seven-colored light, extraordinarily strange, as though each were a Miniature Universe.

Beneath the Stone Tablet lay a Crystal Coffin, with clouds and rosy mist drifting within it.

The moment Lin Xiaosu's gaze fell into the Crystal Coffin, his mind shook violently. There was someone inside—a female corpse lying quietly in the coffin. Clouds and rosy mist covered her below the neck, revealing only her face. Yet even that single face gave Lin Xiaosu the greatest shock. Words like "fish sank and geese fell, the moon hid and flowers bowed in shame" were probably not enough to describe her...

She did not seem to be dead.

She seemed to be sleeping quietly beneath this vast starry sky.

The beauty of her sleeping posture was something no painter in the world could ever capture.

At some unknown moment, Lin Xiaosu felt his consciousness shift, turning into a tiny silver fish that swam above that peerlessly beautiful face, quietly watching the slumbering fairy.

Suddenly, one leaf atop the Stone Tablet flicked, and a drop of dew fell.

The dewdrop shone with seven-colored light, as though it had passed through endless time and space as it descended.

It was about to fall onto the female corpse's eyelid.

Lin Xiaosu was startled and instinctively blocked it.

The instant he blocked it, a bone-chilling cold surged through his sea of consciousness. Mysterious information entered his mind: Heavenly Dao Wisdom Eye, Insight
