Beneath their feet was another white jade plaza, but a layer of white mist covered the ground.
The mist only reached their knees. It churned and rolled, making them wonder whether they were walking atop a sea of clouds, as though they had entered an immortal realm.

Centered on the stele, exactly one hundred stone coffins formed a vast circle.
Below the stele was also a pool one zhang square, filled entirely with azure liquid.

"All participants may choose a stone coffin in which to sleep. After a quarter of an hour, you will enter the dream together and experience three lives across three lifetimes, testing the quality of your character. Those unwilling to participate will be transported out of the secret realm by the formation after a quarter of an hour.

The top ten in total points will additionally receive one drop of Primordial God Blood, one seventh-rank enchanted item, and five Heavenly Origin Pills;
"The top three will receive an additional Divine Origin Rejuvenation Pill. Whoever ranks first
