First Think of Defeat Before Victory!

In the Void Dimension, an unknown place, Ximen Lang followed the mantis's directions for several days, enduring countless hardships...

Fine, actually, it wasn't that difficult.

The main problem was that the place was genuinely hard to find. In the mantis's words:

"The Queen's palace doesn't exist in the real dimension. It stands in the gap between the real and Illusory Dimensions, within the Nine and Three-Quarters layer. Only by entering through the Nine and Three-Quarters Node can you reach it."
