Chapter 1459: The Heavenly God

"Nan Gong, you have worked hard during this time."

Looking at the travel-worn Chu Nangong, Su Xuan said in a gentle tone.

"Lord Xuantian is too kind!"

Chu Nangong appeared flattered.

In his heart, he was naturally somewhat moved. Not much time had passed since he sent that letter; logically speaking, Lord Xuantian should have just received it, yet the other party had arrived here so quickly.

As expected of Lord Xuantian; such methods are truly formidable.

Chu Nangong did not praise it as inconceivable, as he had already witnessed things even more inconceivable.

That's right, Chu Nangong was referring to Su Xuan shattering the void and bringing him to this world.

Immediately, Chu Nangong recounted to Su Xuan the reasons for his finding the location of the "Jingyan Palace."

After accepting the task assigned by Su Xuan that day, the first thing Chu Nangong did was to integrate himself into this era.

In terms of breadth of knowledge alone, Chu Nangong is not inferior to Guiguzi; he is also an all-around talent who is proficient in military strategy, schemes, martial arts, and even the arts of feng shui and geomancy.

In a short period, he had thoroughly integrated into this era.

And because of his origins in the Yin-Yang School, his methods were even more bizarre than those of Guiguzi.

Among the many Yin-Yang arts of the Yin-Yang School, there is no lack of techniques for mind-reading and soul-seizing.

With the help of these techniques, it was an extremely easy matter for Chu Nangong to obtain information about this world.

Regarding the task of finding the Jingyan Palace assigned by Su Xuan, because he knew quite a bit about the reality of the Jingyan Palace from Su Xuan, Chu Nangong also had a line of reasoning for his search.

According to Su Xuan, the Jingyan Palace is never fixed in one place; every once in a while, it will move on its own to another location.

Of course, this "once in a while" could be as short as a few years or decades, or as long as several hundred years.

Because it hides the secret of the "God of War Record," the first of the four great wonders, even if someone truly discovered the existence of the Jingyan Palace and gained insight into its secrets, most chose to hide it, and even actively disguised the secrets of the Jingyan Palace.

The first thing Chu Nangong searched for was the many folk legends.

If the Jingyan Palace moves on its own, then the sudden appearance of such a large complex of buildings would always have some records.

Traveling everywhere in the world and reading countless secret books, Chu Nangong finally found a clue.

Finally, he arrived near this Mount Kunlun.

In a certain tribe, he found clues about the Jingyan Palace.

This tribe was just a very small tribe living near Mount Kunlun. Although the tribe was small, its history was not short, spanning several hundred years. Originally, the entire tribe, like all nomadic peoples, constantly migrated in pursuit of water and grass, but because of certain events, this tribe had been living near Mount Kunlun for the past hundred years or so.

The cause of all this stemmed from a certain migration of their ancestors.

More than a hundred years ago, when their ancestors migrated near Mount Kunlun, they suddenly encountered a change in celestial phenomena; the heavens and earth lost their color, the sun and moon lost their light, and the entire world fell into darkness. Violent winds roared incessantly. Just when they thought they were about to encounter a storm and the entire tribe would perish,

a golden light suddenly tore through the sky and fell upon them. Through the golden light, they vaguely saw a corner of a palace.

Afterward, the violent winds vanished, and the world returned to normal.

But the scene they had seen earlier lingered in the hearts of the tribe's ancestors. Thus, they secretly explored, and finally, in a certain valley of Mount Kunlun, they discovered a magnificent palace.

Mount Kunlun is a well-deserved sacred mountain. The palace exists in a desolate place rarely visited by humans; this clearly could not have been built by human power, so they immediately believed it to be the palace of a heavenly god in the mortal world.

They all began to kowtow and worship.

After the worship was finished, some gathered the courage to step inside and explore.

Unfortunately, those explorers never managed to walk out alive.

This made the people of the tribe even more awestruck; clearly, there was great terror within the palace.

Afterward, in order to keep this secret,

they continued to live at the foot of Mount Kunlun. Regarding the matter of this heavenly god's palace, at first, some kept it secret, but later, as time passed, the descendants of the tribe treated it as a legend passed down by hearsay. But whether it was a true legend or not, out of awe for their ancestors and the ancestral teachings passed down in the tribe, no one dared to set foot on Mount Kunlun and head toward the location of that palace.

Later, Central Plains merchants came here and recorded this legend, subsequently bringing it back to the Central Plains.

After Chu Nangong found this record, he rushed here immediately to confirm the truth of the matter.

It seems he had already confirmed the truth of this legend; otherwise, it would have been impossible to send such a letter to Su Xuan.

"You really have your ways!"

After listening to Chu Nangong's account, Su Xuan could not help but sigh.

That Chu Nangong could even find such folk legends—one has to say, he is truly formidable.

"Just luck."

Chu Nangong was not proud; he stated bluntly that this was his good luck.

After receiving the task assigned by Su Xuan, he set his line of reasoning, and not long after, he found this legend. Chu Nangong immediately felt that this legend was related to the Jingyan Palace that Su Xuan wanted to find.

Once he arrived here and personally went to that valley in Mount Kunlun, he became even more certain of the matter.

That valley, for the people of the tribe here, is a true dead zone, not only because the terrain where the valley is located is rarely visited by humans, but also because the interior of that palace is filled with mazes and holds many dangers.

Chu Nangong's strength is not bad; the dangers on the outskirts of the valley count for nothing to him.

In fact, before Su Xuan arrived here, he had even preliminarily explored that "Heavenly God's Palace."

"The layout of this palace has a mysterious correspondence with the movement of the Three Enclosures, Twenty-Eight Mansions, and the Five Planets and Sun and Moon in the sky, which is why it can exist for eternity. According to its style, the era of its construction can be traced back to the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

Chu Nangong is a person of the Qin Dynasty and a product of the Yin-Yang School; he is extremely proficient in the ways of feng shui and the like. After exploring the palace for a while, he gained insight into the secrets of the palace.

"Besides this, there is a maze hidden beneath the palace. The maze is extremely mysterious and seems to contain some kind of profound mystery. If one can gain insight into its mystery, perhaps there is another world within."

Chu Nangong spoke of his findings after exploring the palace. ===== CHAPTER 1461 =====
