The earth cracked open, with Ziwei Hall at the center, the ground of the Imperial City, harder than iron and gold, split into countless fissures, collapsing in large chunks.
Above the cracked surface, a thick medicinal fragrance emanated, outlining a jade-like radiance as if it were the color of the dome of the sky.
The Immortal Queen was refining the Immortality Elixir beneath Ziwei Hall!
Tianxuan had a feeling that things were indeed as he had expected.
Lately, the Emperor had been staying mostly inside Ziwei Hall, reviewing memorials. Given his suspicious nature, and considering the Emperor's current difficulty in finding trustworthy aides, it was best to have the refinement of the Immortality Elixir happen right under the Emperor's nose.
Only then could the Emperor be at ease.
Malevolent stars and Xing Yao shattered the split ground, and large pieces of the ruins fell, allowing daylight to penetrate the underground.
