Outside the Hall of Holy Fire, the crowd had been anxiously waiting, when suddenly, deep beneath the ground, they witnessed a celestial phenomenon.
To the east was the Azure Dragon, to the north, Xuanwu, to the west, the White Tiger, and to the south, the Vermilion Bird.
With the four beasts circling, a holy beast's phantom that had never been seen before appeared in the center.
As it turned out, there were always five of the Four Great Holy Beasts, but the last one had always been unknown to mankind.
And it was after this spectacle appeared that everyone knew Its name in their hearts.
This sacred beast was called Qilin.
It was a sacred beast forgotten by the world, and upon Its appearance, everyone became aware of Its name.
"The Four Kings return to their places, the Qilin is born, he really could make it happen," someone said.
At the Taiqing Daoist Temple, Yuxuan looked toward the direction of the Gan River, playing the cryptic sage once more.
