Just as Aaron revealed the heavenly secret.
One hundred and fifty miles southeast of the Langhuan Jade Platform.
Within a mountain ravine.
The Moon Worship Sect's four great Dharma Kings occupied the four directions, worshipping a high platform before them.
Upon the platform stood four straw effigies.
These straw effigies were crudely made, as though some clumsy village man or woman had kneaded them together at random. Their eyes were crooked, their mouths slanted, yet each bore a bizarre smile at the corners of its lips.
