Xu Yan was sorting through the Dao Principles of Heaven and Earth and comprehending this ancient mountain, wondering whether he could gain anything from it, when he suddenly opened his eyes and looked beyond the mountain.
A figure was approaching.
What surprised him was that the woman drawing near seemed somewhat abnormal.
She was like jade, as though she had been transformed from fine jade.
Her exquisite, beautiful face seemed to have been carved with meticulous precision, every feature perfectly proportioned, as if a master jade sculptor had expended endless effort to carve her with the utmost care.
She looked like a normal person, yet not quite like one.
"Someone from the Unchanging Divine Palace? It doesn't seem so!"
Xu Yan was puzzled. The people from the Unchanging Divine Palace had gloomy auras and lacked a certain masculine vigor, making them easy to identify.
Yet this woman did not possess that sort of aura from the Unchanging Divine Palace.
But neither did she have the aura of a life-form born from Heaven and Earth.
"Could she be a special True Spirit?"
Xu Yan could not help but wonder whether, despite her human form, this woman was actually a special True Spirit from the Unchanging Land.
After all, True Spirits were multitudinous, and certain unique special True Spirits did exist.
"Unchanging True Spirits have no intelligence. This woman has intelligence, so she isn't an Unchanging True Spirit. Surely an Unchanging True Spirit didn't happen to develop intelligence and coincidentally cross my path?"
Xu Yan was immensely curious.
Although the woman possessed intelligence, she also gave off the impression of having somewhat sluggish thoughts, as if she had only recently awakened her intelligence.
Yet Xu Yan was puzzled. Could an Unchanging True Spirit really be this beautiful?
And a human, at that?
