According to the ancient saying, the dragon had nine sons, all of them different.
The divine dragon's sixth son was called Bi 'an, also known as Baxia.
Its appearance was similar to a turtle, but it had a row of sharp teeth in its mouth that could swallow mountains and rivers.
Legend had it that Baxia was born with boundless strength and loved to carry heavy loads.
It would often carry mountains and lakes on its back to stir up trouble, causing rivers to overturn and floods to fill the sky.
In ancient times, a human god saw the suffering of the human race and took pity on them, so he subdued Dragon Son Baxia.
That ancient human god ordered Baxia to dig up mountains and rivers, clean up the waterways, and control the floods.
After countless years, the floods that ravaged the world were finally subdued, and the people were finally able to live in peace.
That human god was worried that Baxia would cause trouble again, so he prayed to the heavens and sent down a towering stone stele for Baxia to carry on its back so that it could not move around freely.
The stone stele recorded the story of the human god and Baxia's achievements. It could reach the heavens and convey the will of the heavens.
Of course, Ji Tianxing knew that this ancient legend was just a myth and might not be very trustworthy.
However, in this ancient and majestic hall, he saw a Dragon Son Ba Xia carrying a stone stele. Naturally, he would pay more attention and take a few more glances.
He walked over the dust-covered steps and stood in front of Baxia, observing the stone stele on its back at close range.
Lines of ancient characters were indeed carved on the pitch-black stone stele.
These characters were extremely strange. They looked like twisted symbols, but also like tadpoles pieced together.
Ji Tianxing observed for a moment and realized that these ancient characters were not of the human race.
He was puzzled as he pondered these characters when he suddenly saw a faint green light in Baxia's eyes.
An ancient and heavy voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"A thousand years! After a thousand years, someone has finally come here! "
The voice was low and hoarse, full of emotion and lamentation.
Ji Tianxing was immediately jolted awake. He looked at Stone Turtle Baxia with shining eyes and asked, "Are you the one speaking?"
Although he found it hard to understand, how could a stone tortoise without any signs of life speak?
However, everything he had experienced in the Hidden Fog Mountain Range was so mysterious and unbelievable.
This ancient hall also exuded a mysterious aura.
Even if the stone tortoise spoke, he wouldn't be surprised. He was already used to it.
The green light in the stone tortoise's eyes flickered, and the deep, hoarse voice rang out in his mind again.
"Kid, you are the first person to enter the Ancient Star Palace in the past thousand years. You are very lucky and very special!"
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly to the stone tortoise as a sign of respect.
He knew that the stone tortoise was communicating with him through soul telepathy, so he asked, "Senior, may I ask who you are …?"
The Stone Turtle's eyes flickered as he replied via soul transmission, "Me? I'm just an old servant guarding the Ancient Star Palace. Now, I'm just a wisp of my soul. "
"Kid, since you can enter the Ancient Star Palace, you are a fated person. My soul has been awakened by you, but it won't last for long. Soon, it will disappear from this world. "
"I can see that you are full of questions. If you have anything to ask, ask as soon as possible. As long as I know, I will try my best to answer you. "
Ji Tianxing immediately cupped his fists and said with a sincere tone, "Thank you, senior!"
"Senior, may I ask where this is? Is it in the Full Moon Lake? "
Stone Turtle Ba Xia said indifferently, "This is the Ancient Star Palace, located at the bottom of the Full Moon Lake. It is protected by the Full Moon Lake and the Massive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Formation. Only those who are fated can enter."
Ji Tianxing nodded to show that he understood.
He could guess that the reason why he could enter this ancient palace was related to the disappearance of the Full Moon Lake.
He continued to ask, "Senior, who is the owner of this Ancient Star Palace?"
The stone tortoise said with a serious tone, "My master's title is the Bright Moon Demon Emperor. He is a famous elite in the Tian Xuan Continent, one of the six overlords of the Demon Clan."
"This Ancient Star Palace is my master's temporary residence."
Heavenly Origin Stage Demons and Demons could only be called Demon Kings and Demon Kings.
Only those who had surpassed the Heavenly Origin Stage and reached an even more powerful stage could be called Emperor.
Ji Tianxing was shocked that the owner of this Ancient Star Palace, the Bright Moon Demon Emperor, had surpassed the Heavenly Origin Stage.
He asked again, "Senior, I came to the Full Moon Lake after many difficulties to find the legendary Heavenly Star Pearl."
"I obtained an ancient book, and it was recorded that the Heavenly Star Pearl's aura had appeared in the Full Moon Lake … I wonder where the Heavenly Star Pearl is now?"
Stone Turtle Ba Xia was stunned and said with a serious tone, "Kid, this is a long story, so I'll make it short."
"My master, the Bright Moon Demon Emperor, did obtain the Heavenly Star Pearl and kept it with him. He often thought of the magnificent Kenshin when he looked at it."
"However, not long after my master obtained the Heavenly Star Pearl, a human elite broke into the Ancient Star Palace and took the Heavenly Star Pearl."
Ji Tianxing was even more confused when he heard this. He asked instinctively, "Senior, what's the relationship between the Bright Moon Demon Emperor and Kenshin?"
Stone Turtle Ba Xia's tone was complicated as he said, "My master was the overlord of the Demon Clan and a beautiful Saintess. She met Kenshin in the Western Mainland and fell in love with Kenshin at first sight. That's why she followed him here."
"However, Kenshin was not an ordinary person. Why would he be reluctant to leave the secular world? My poor master was so infatuated, but in the end, she was lonely and lonely. Sigh! "
At this point, Stone Turtle Baxia sighed with emotion.
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and remembered this story. He continued to ask, "Senior, who was the human elite who took the Heavenly Star Pearl?"
Stone Turtle Ba Xia answered, "That person called himself Emperor Ye. He was enlightened and taught by Kenshin and called himself Kenshin's successor. He was quite famous in the Ancient Star Realm and left behind many legends."
"Emperor Ye? Kenshin's successor? "Ji Tianxing raised an eyebrow and immediately thought of the ancient tomb at the foot of Dragon Mountain.
He pondered for a moment and said solemnly, "Senior, not long ago, I found an ancient tomb at the foot of Dragon Mountain."
"That ancient tomb seems to be the tomb of the Kenshin's successor, Emperor Ye. The ancient tomb is protected by a Grand Tianyuan Formation …"
He told Stone Turtle Ba Xia about the situation and information about the ancient tomb on Dragon Mountain.
Stone Turtle Ba Xia was silent for a moment before he said with certainty, "Boy, if that ancient tomb is really Emperor Ye's tomb, then the Heavenly Star Pearl must be in the ancient tomb!
"As for the ancient tomb's protective formation … The Grand Tianyuan Formation from a thousand years ago is indeed very mysterious and difficult to break for today's martial experts."
