Si Huangquan lowered her head and glanced at the Snake Bone Witch and the maids behind her, extending her hand in a gesture of respect: "Please rise, Witch Xian Lady, and everyone else as well. I learned of your name from my mother’s memories, you are my mother’s chief attendant, the pillar of trust for the nation she most relied on."

She then raised her head and looked deep into the palace: "This palace platform resonates distantly with my Yin Vein power, its sound echoes in response. May I venture inside to take a look?"

The corner of the Snake Bone Witch Xian Yue’s lips slightly curved, her expression excited, unable to conceal her joy: "Why does Your Majesty say this? This is originally your future palace beneath you."

At this moment, Shen Tu and Yu Lei also flew over, suspended in the sky. The former spoke in a concentrated voice: "Young Master, this palace platform is something the two of us found for you. You are its rightful owner. In this world, only you can possess it."

Si Huangquan nodded and immediately stepped toward the inner depths of the palace.

Behind the palace gate stretched a long Imperial Road, leading to another palace gate deep within, resembling the road between the Meridian Gate and the Gate of the Wang’an City imperial palace.

This palace, built more than ten million years ago, shares a similar structure with the current palaces, with no essential differences. Though the architectural style is not as exquisite and magnificent, its momentum is more grand and majestic.

On both sides of the Imperial Road stand city walls made of multicolored cloud stones, adorned with various relief murals. Although not extremely fine, they are primitive and stark.

Chu Xisheng and Lu Luanti followed behind Si Huangquan, looking side to side as they walked.

They discovered that the pictures on these murals did not depict dragons and phoenixes, or various auspicious beasts, but rather focused on narrative.

Ancient craftsmen engraved the Ancestor Gods of the Ancient Era, along with powerful Innate Divine Beings, on these murals, detailing their experiences and stories.

Moments later, Chu Xisheng noticed Si Huangquan suddenly pause and specifically glance at a few murals on his left before continuing deeper into the palace, crossing over the second level gate.

Chu Xisheng also glanced at those murals, then raised his eyebrows.

This is the story of ’aiding and abetting.’

It tells of the fierce beast Qiong Qi and some fierce tigers possessing the ability to command ’Ghosts.’

In ancient times, some giant spirits were devoured by Qiong Qi, becoming ghosts that, in turn, lured other giant spirits to be captured and eaten by Qiong Qi, leading to massive casualties and isolating many giant spirit city-states of the mortal world.

Later, when the Heavenly Court learned of this, they dispatched Yellow Father Swallowing Evil God, known as Chi Guo, to clear the way, slaying five fierce beasts of Qiong Qi, opening up various ground routes.

Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but exchange glances with Lu Luanti and Si Wutian.

A peculiar gleam was evident in their eyes.

Regardless of how one looked at it, this mural appeared very abrupt.

Though it is related to the former owner of this palace, compared to the previous murals, this story doesn’t match the caliber.

The previous records depicted major world events, such as the disputes among the Ancestor Gods, the Heavenly Emperor’s abdication, and so on.

Chu Xisheng could sense the trace of time and the passage of ages.

This mural was very fresh, possibly carved just under three days ago.

Chu Xisheng then observed the expressions of Shen Tu and Yu Lei.

Both showed no reaction, their faces expressionless, as cold as ever, appearing indifferent even to this mural.

The Snake Bone Witch only glanced sideways before withdrawing her gaze, her facial features unchanging.

They continued walking inside, proceeding to the third layer stone hall within the palace.

Si Huangquan stood at the central location of this immense stone hall, her pair of Yin Vein wings stretching fully, concentrating on sensing the Ancient Divine Formation within the palace.

This was precisely the central hub of the Divine Array within the palace. Chu Xisheng also felt the convergence of numerous spirit veins around him.

Si Huangquan turned her head: "There should be an Array Control Artifact here, where is it?"

"Your Majesty!"

The Snake Bone Witch Xian Yue immediately stepped forward, retrieving a crudely shaped stone seal from her Void Magical Artifact, larger than several windmills, and presented it before Si Huangquan.

The scene looked quite peculiar. However, in ancient times, the Yellow Father Swallowing Evil God Chi Guo stood seven hundred zhang tall, so naturally, his seal was enormous.

The palace was equally vast, just this hall reaching a height of eighteen hundred zhang. Yet, within the vast stone palace were only about two hundred Yin Spirit Maids.

"This is the palace seal left behind by Yellow Father Swallowing Evil God, capable of controlling the entire palace’s Divine Array. Additionally, this is the Yin Vein Crystal Core left to me by Her Majesty the Queen Yin, please, Your Majesty, reclaim them both."

As Si Huangquan slightly raised her hand and drew all these items to her side, the Snake Bone Witch Xian Yue’s eyes gleamed with an ethereal light: "Your Majesty, Shen Tu and Yu Lei are no longer trustworthy, possibly reduced to assisting others, intending to harm you!"

The expressions on Shen Tu and Yu Lei’s faces remained unchanged.

Chu Xisheng, however, noticed Yu Lei clenching his fists abruptly.

Shen Tu’s pupils slightly contracted.

He seemingly expressionlessly gazed at Xian Yue: "Why do you say such things, Witch Xian Lady? You claim we have become like aiding ghosts, do you have any evidence?"

"None!"

Xian Yue shook her head, lowering in a bow, her voice sincere: "Your Majesty, a year ago I was invited by these two to the Battle Wind Realm to preside over this stone palace. During this period, I found their actions rather suspicious, frequently meeting and contacting the Eternal Giant God. Therefore, Your Majesty, no matter what they say next, you must remain vigilant, scrutinize carefully, and never trust readily!"
