Chapter 413
Chapter Title: Heavenly Realm
I headed first to the Heavenly Altar on Mount Heng.
The Heavenly Altar there had a unique feature unlike the others, something I wanted to check out. After confirming there were no martial artists or other factions nearby, I climbed up onto the altar.
“There it is.”
The statue of Pangu!
According to the creation myth, Pangu—the creation god—was conceived within a cosmic egg containing the primordial chaos of heaven and earth. He shattered the egg, sending the light, pure energies upward to form the sky, while the heavy, turbid ones settled to create the land. To honor that myth, the abbot of the nearby Xuan Gong Temple enshrined Pangu.
But strangely, the Heavenly Altar on Mount Heng also bore a statue of Pangu. I'd once asked the abbot if he'd placed it there, but he insisted it had stood there since ancient times, not by his hand. Clearly, someone had deliberately set the statue on this Heavenly Altar.
