Beyond the sky, in an indescribable, immeasurable place...
An endless, dense purple mist had been rising, forming a platform that carried two cottages. Standing before the left cottage was a linden tree, and before the right cottage was a clear pond. Blooming in the pond was a colorful lotus, surrounded by three to five broad leaves.
Under the linden tree, Priest Hua and Priest Mu sat, facing each other.
Priest Hua had been trembling slightly. On his skin, tiny spell symbols were twisting and moving, like thousands of ants crawling quickly under his skin. Weirdly, his face was transparent. Through his face, one could see another face, an incomparably beautiful face, without any features of gender.
As the lips of that beautiful face slightly opened, a strange voice echoed through the entire cloud platform.
