Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before swivelling his head to look at the Northern Ocean Clone's finger.
After a while, Yan Zhaoge laughed lightly, arranging for the Northern Ocean Clone to keep an eye on it to ensure that it did not escape.
Then, Yan Zhaoge played with the pillar of the Divine Palace that had shrunk to the form of a short stone rod in his left hand, holding that short sword in his right as he strode towards the palace that seemed ordinary yet actually possessed miraculous properties.
The entire palace was formed of stone. Carefully observing it, Yan Zhaoge discovered that the stone used to construct the palace was completely the same as the reefs of the cave outside.
They were similar to the extent that they could not be distinguished as it was as if the stone house had 'grown' out of the cave.
As Yan Zhaoge entered the palace, the pillar of the Divine Palace to his left instantly shook intensely.
… It was as if something was attracting it over.
Raising his head and gazing upwards, Yan Zhaoge saw a massive beam at the top of the palace that was exceptionally eye-catching.
Because the material of the beam was different from that of the entire stone palace, not having been born in this cave, it looked neither stone nor metal nor wood, making it hard to distinguish.
The beam flickered with a seven-coloured lustre, streams of profound radiance descending from above, resembling numerous ribbons of silk.
Looking at this beam, Yan Zhaoge suddenly laughed.
Numerous patterns that flickered with radiance surfaced on the surface of the beam, a profound concept emanating from within.
Yan Zhaoge laughed loudly, "Indeed, it is a beam of the Divine Palace that year. No wonder the pillar of the Divine Palace reacted."
That beam seemed to be affected by the pillar of the Divine Palace as well, beginning to shake more and more intensely as the two were attracted to each other.
Yan Zhaoge leapt up, arriving beneath the beam and carefully observing it as he gradually came to a realisation.
"So that's how it is. The entire palace originated from this beam of the Divine Palace."
Yan Zhaoge realised. Due to its spirituality, the beam of the Divine Palace had gradually merged with its surroundings, drawing in the surrounding earth and stone, with itself as the core, gradually forming this simple stone palace.
This palace really did not rely on artificial hands, because its creator was precisely this beam.
Looking at this beam and then at the pillar of the Divine Palace in his hands, Yan Zhaoge felt rather emotional.
At this moment, he felt as if he was slowly flowing upstream along the long river of time, returning to the era before the Great Calamity.
This was a feeling that came from one's state of mind. It was as if one's spirit was being washed by time.
Yan Zhaoge let out a long breath, stabilising his mind, letting his will break free from that bewildered state.
He carefully examined the beam of the Shen Palace. He saw that the surface of the beam was emitting rays of light that gradually formed an intricate formation pattern.
The spirit pattern looked extremely profound, hard to understand. However, after appraising it a few times, Yan Zhaoge had a rough idea of what it was, "It's used for short-range spatial shifting."
Understanding this, Yan Zhaoge could not help but sigh.
He now understood why the reaction of the jade dagger had become weaker, and why Shi Jun's position was getting further and further away from him.
Shi Jun must have discovered this place. When he was inspecting the beam of the God Palace, he touched the spirit formation and was teleported away by the spirit formation.
Yan Zhaoge lightly flicked the wooden beam with his finger before extending it, tapping on that spirit pattern.
The rays of radiance instantly retracted, sweeping Yan Zhaoge along as well. The boundaries of space seemed to be in the process of being erased at this moment.
Yan Zhaoge smiled, stabbing the shrunken pillar of the Divine Palace that resembled a short rod onto the surface of the beam.
The pillar and the beam instantly shuddered together.
The Northern Ocean Clone made use of this chance to exert force, grabbing the Dragon Finger Glove with one hand and the beam with the other.
The beam shook mightily as it separated from that stone palace, landing in the Northern Ocean Clone's hands.
Having lost the beam as its foundation, that spatial shifting formation instantly became unstable. However, Yan Zhaoge had already made use of this chance to disappear amidst the radiance along with the Northern Ocean Clone, making use of this spirit pattern one last time to leave this underwater cave.
It was just that in the process of spatial shifting, as the pillar of the Divine Palace came into direct contact with the beam, streams of spiritual qi surged, surging out from the beam.
Within Yan Zhaoge's mind, scenes of light suddenly surfaced one after another.
Similar to when he had collected the pillars of the Divine Palace, these images seemed to record everything that the beam of the Divine Palace had experienced since the calamity, the destruction of the Divine Palace, and the fall from the Ninth Heaven as a part of the wreckage, the long years that the beam of the Divine Palace had experienced, everything it had seen and heard.
Most of the scenes did not change at all, merely reflecting the process of this beam of the Divine Palace being buried deep within the depths of the Star Shifting Sea of the Vast Ocean World. As its spirituality gradually recovered, it caused the surrounding earth and rocks to change, finally constructing that stone palace with itself as its centre.
That had been an extremely long process, bit by bit, minute by minute, change by change.
In the initial days, that stone palace had been much cruder and simpler than it was now. As time passed, it had become more and more intricate and intricate.
Yan Zhaoge believed that if he did not bring this beam away today, in a few more decades or centuries, that underwater stone palace would be even more intricate and intricate. From the outside, it would seem like it had been meticulously constructed by countless craftsmen.
Of the numerous scenes recorded by the beam of the Divine Palace, what drew Yan Zhaoge's attention was that someone had shockingly already found that underwater cave many years ago.
Still, it was not that woman who was related to the Extreme Yin Crown. Instead, it was a black-clothed middle-aged man.
His skin was pale and his expression cold, his cultivation base not as high as that woman's as he looked like he had yet to enter the Martial Saint realm. He was probably at the Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster or Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmaster realm.
Seeing the beam of the Divine Palace, this middle-aged man was first astonished before he became infatuated with it.
He had also tried to collect the beam of the Divine Palace, yet had not succeeded.
The black-clothed middle-aged man's gaze sobered somewhat as he muttered to himself, "It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong … this is a treasure from before the Great Calamity! And an incredible treasure at that! It is very likely related to that legendary Heavenly Court's Divine Palace! "
"It might even be a part of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace! A pity, a pity! How exactly can I bring it away from here? "
The black-clothed man remained here for many days, yet was unable to collect the beam of the Divine Palace as he could only helplessly give up in the end.
Still, he did not look very despondent, "Whatever, I will first go look for the burial ground of that group of dragons entering the sea. If I can obtain sufficient benefits there and raise my strength, perhaps I will be able to turn things around and take this beam of wood away."
"Haha, who would have thought that this tiny Vast Ocean World would actually possess so many fortuitous encounters and supreme treasures. My laborious trip down here was not in vain."
Amidst his laughter, the black-clothed man turned and left, exiting the underwater cave. The scenes regarding him ended there.
This person left and did not return, not appearing again afterwards.
Yan Zhaoge watched this silently, countless thoughts flashing through his mind at lightning speed. (To be continued.)
