"This thing's design and method of refinement seem rather ancient—older even than my father's era. It seems to be... from the Mythological Age?"
Dragon Maiden stared at the Green Jade Turtle in Gu Sheng's hand in astonishment. Artifacts of such an ancient design were truly rare in this age. After such a long passage of time, even a Worldly Saint Weapon might be destroyed.
Gu Sheng stroked the Green Jade Turtle and said calmly, "This was a forbidden weapon prepared by the Undying Heavenly Emperor to protect his path, but he never got to use it."
"The Undying Heavenly Emperor?"
"The Heavenly Emperor?"
"Your Majesty!"
Gu Sheng's words elicited different reactions from everyone. People like Old Dao had no idea what the Undying Heavenly Emperor was and were utterly confused. The Holy Son and Holy Maiden of Yao Guang and Jade Pool had probably read some records in ancient texts, but they still could not believe that the Undying Heavenly Emperor had truly existed. Dragon Maiden, meanwhile, showed a trace of reverence.
The Undying Heavenly Emperor was revered as the god whom the Primordial Races jointly honored. Even the other ancient emperors respected this first emperor, who had ushered in the Primordial Age.
Everyone was clearly interested in the Undying Heavenly Emperor's deeds, but Gu Sheng had no intention of continuing. "All right, there's nothing more to say about this fellow. Let's continue on our way!"
A bloodstained crescent moon lay across the ground. It was called Crimson Moon Grotto, a land of extreme yin and softness. Even the various holy lords had to detour around it. It was an exceedingly terrifying cursed land.
A black sun sank down and fell beneath the ridge. It was called Fallen Sun Ridge, a demonic land of extreme hardness and yang.
