There was no telling how deep underground this place lay.
Gray mist filled the air.
He could not see far.
Even Spiritual Power seemed blocked by the mist, unable to penetrate very far.
Sensing something, Xu Yuan walked to the edge of the Square and looked into the distance.
A Ten-Thousand-Fathom Cliff plunged below him.

—That was her true body!
