One day, at the edge of the Red Mountain Forest Sea, a purple-robed Daoist entered Luohou Abyss from beyond the ancient restrictions.
After briefly getting his bearings, he channeled his Spiritual Power and summoned a long black staff made from hand bones. Starlight flowed around him as he rose into the air.
He was Deng Su, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect cultivator who had left over a decade ago.
"I wonder whether Song Yan is still here."
Following his memories, he flew toward Phoenix Creek Cliff.
On this trip back to his sect, Deng Su had reported every last clue concerning Deng Rui that he had found here to the sect's stewards.
Returning the Primordial Chaos Sky Lantern had certainly caused a stir among many elders and clan elders.
Listening to them before the hall, he had heard them mention bringing it back ahead of time. Presumably, they had long since calculated that it would eventually return to the sect.
No wonder they had not been anxious in the slightest when such a supreme treasure was stolen, instead treating it as a trial for the sect's juniors.
During the questioning that followed, Deng Su explained the entire sequence of events and also told them about Song Yan.
Tracing their origins back, the Sword Sect and Tianyan shared the same lineage. Upon hearing that Deng Su had encountered a Sword Sect Inheritor, the sect's seniors stopped discussing it in his presence.
Deng Su knew nothing of what they discussed in private.
In the end, however, they rewarded him with many Spiritual Objects and Spiritual Resources, and also bestowed a primordial chaos treasure and a fourth-tier talisman upon him.
They instructed him to descend into Luohou Abyss again and investigate when he returned.
This Treasure Talisman was called the Flowing Yin Spirit-Controlling Talisman.
