The elderly man paid his respects in greeting.
"Land Deity, let me ask you, why is there such an abundance of sin Qi in this area? The Prime Star of Heavenly Gang hadn't passed through this place before, had it?"
Yibai inquired aloud.
He scanned the area with his Dharma Eye.
He saw three great mountains.
Each mountain had a dozen sin Qi swirling around; the Monster Qi was almost suppressed to the point of invisibility.
"Heavenly Gang's Prime Star, it is not so. Every year the Prime Star descends to this place, but this year is different. In Guangxu Prefecture, mortals in battle have strewn corpses everywhere. Many demons have taken the opportunity to come down the mountain, taking away the bodies to feed, thus giving birth to so much sin Qi."
The Land Deity explained.
"So it is."
Yibai nodded in understanding.
