The Five-Colored Sparrow was mysterious. Meng Chuan had studied it carefully, but with his cultivation only at the Venerable level, he could not see its full nature.
It looked like a real bird, but was actually something akin to a Primordial Spirit.
And something similar to what had happened to Willow God had happened to the Five-Colored Sparrow.
It, too, had fallen to an unprecedented low.
It bore terrible injuries that had damaged the foundation of its Dao and reached deep into its Origin and Great Dao.
Willow God, however, had undergone nirvana and Rebirth, and was gradually recovering.
The Five-Colored Sparrow remained muddled, with no telling whether it would ever recover.
For it to have fallen so far, there was definitely a story behind it.
Unfortunately, without knowing where it came from, Meng Chuan had no way of knowing what had happened to it.
He reckoned that even if he returned to his peak, he would only be able to discern part of the Five-Colored Sparrow's roots.
That was not to say the Five-Colored Sparrow was stronger than him.
Rather, its species came from the other side of the Boundary Sea. It belonged to neither the Immortal Domain nor the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
In the original story, the Five-Colored Sparrow would later reveal a few things to Big Nonpoint.
It came from the Boundary Sea. Someone had severed the foundation of its Dao, and it had lost many of its memories. It no longer remembered its past.
Its condition had once been so dire that it might have died.
After it arrived in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Willow God had sheltered it and let it build a nest in her branches. That had directly helped nurture it and kept it from vanishing like smoke.
