The Ninth Order lion demon Sang Luo shuddered at those words and hurriedly answered with deference:
"In answer to your question, exalted immortal, the Ancestral Court is on another continent to the south. It has yet to fall completely. We were planning to go there for help ourselves."
Xie Changsheng nodded. "Another question: is there a divine treasure called 'Time Amber' in your Ancestral Court?"
"Time Amber?"
Sang Luo froze, bewilderment covering his enormous lion head. After thinking carefully for a moment, he shook his head awkwardly:
"Forgive me, exalted immortal. Though this lowly demon is well-informed by the standards of the Ancient Netherworld, I have truly never heard the name 'Time Amber.'"
At this answer, Xie Changsheng's brows furrowed slightly.
Had I guessed wrong? Was the thing Shi Yin left behind not in this Plane's Ancestral Court?
Just as doubt arose in Xie Changsheng's mind, Sang Luo seemed afraid of angering Ao Lie, who stood beside him with eyes wide in a furious glare. He hurriedly racked his brains and added:
"However... if this divine treasure you speak of has something to do with time, exalted immortal, this lowly demon does know of one place!"
"Deep within the forbidden grounds of our Demon Race Ancestral Court lies a supreme treasure of the Demon Race, passed down from the Primordial Era. It is called the 'Time-Flowing Quicksand Formation'!"
Sang Luo checked their expressions before continuing. "Once that great formation is activated, time within it flows entirely differently from the outside world. A hundred years inside is only a single year outside! But that wondrous treasure is the Ancestral Court's most vital treasure. The Three Demon Ancestors have always enshrined it within the forbidden grounds, and ordinary people cannot see it."
"The Time-Flowing Quicksand Formation?"
Xie Changsheng's eyes instantly lit up.
