The southern part of the Great Xuan Kingdom was rarely trodden, with the mountain ranges shrouded by clouds and fog year-round, and spiritual energy was thin.
In an unremarkable valley within a nameless mountain, the fog seemed to be even thicker than in other places.
Deep inside the belly of the valley's mountain, in a stone chamber that was about seven to eight zhangs in diameter, an intense coldness prevailed. Strands of chilling intent rose from the ground of the chamber making the temperature feel several degrees colder than it actually was.
In the center of the ground, an expressionless head stood upright amidst the fine sand.
The surrounding sand was a dark reddish-black, each grain crystal clear. Each grain of sand seemed to have black qi slowly circulating within it, causing ripples of light on the surface of the sand that added a layer of eeriness to the stone chamber.
