Red Cloud smiled. "The Golden Crow was the supreme sovereign of the demon race. Its bloodline ranked even above the Origin Phoenix's, making it foremost among all birds. Legend has it that in Ancient Antiquity, the Golden Crow established the demon race's Heavenly Court."
"But in the Dao Canons, that is already a distant legend from Primordial Antiquity."
The Heavenly Court of Primordial Antiquity, a sovereign of the demon race!
Feng Wei nodded in agreement. "Indeed. Our clan's records contain similar accounts."
"The great sun within the Jianmu Secret Realm is the remains of a Golden Crow. A ninth-tier mighty cultivator once went to investigate, only to return empty-handed."
Caiyun looked startled. "Even a ninth-tier cultivator could do nothing? Is it really that terrifying?"
Feng Wei slowly nodded. "Precisely. A wisp of solar true fire is sealed within those remains. Ordinary cultivators cannot even approach it."
"Even ninth-tier cultivators dare not rashly draw near."
"Such divine fire is incomparably domineering. Though the Golden Crow has died and its remains have withered, that wisp of solar true fire still burns."
Hearing this, Xu Yan of Colorful Cloud City sighed inwardly. Such is the nature of a sacred spirit. Even after death, its divine fire endures undying through the ages.
Xia Guang looked around, her gaze turning toward the shadowy depths of the boundless sea. "Saint Son, what exactly does the Giant Whale Clan in these depths look like?"
This expanse of sea stretched without end. Its waters differed completely in color from the seas outside, exuding a vast, ancient air unique to the secret realm.
Feng Wei smiled faintly. "Xia Guang, you will see shortly. These giant whales are gentle creatures and often leap out of the sea."
"They come and go. Perhaps we will have the fortune to encounter them."
