Shen Mo had not expected Guan Ling to react so strongly. He froze for a moment, then told her everything related to the immortal's residence, the Moon Palace, the Longevity Devil Lord, and more!
"Ever since I obtained this gold page, I have studied it for a long time, yet failed to glean even half a mystery from it. For Fellow Daoist Guan to be so moved by this thing, is there something strange about it?"
"How could it be merely strange!"
Guan Ling pointed at the immortal-patterned seal script on the gold page, her expression dark as still water. "These words originated from the Dao-bestowed heavenly book one receives upon attaining the Celestial Immortal realm. They are heavenly script. Only after cultivating to the True Immortal realm can one comprehend their mysteries. True Immortals often use them to record cultivation arts, immortal techniques, and insights into the Dao."
"Yet what this gold page records is a twisted, malformed comprehension of the Great Dao. It was clearly the handiwork of those remnants from the old era!"
"Fortunately, you have yet to become a True Immortal. Otherwise, the moment you understood the meaning of these heavenly scripts, your mind would immediately be contaminated, turning you into a madman through and through. The deeper your studies, the madder you would become."
"You might gain supreme magical power and profound Dao cultivation within an extremely short time, but by then, you would no longer be your original self. You would be a puppet controlled by the twisted Great Dao! Aside from continuing to seek this Dao, everything else would lose its original meaning in your eyes."

Shen Mo felt a chill crawl down
