The Celestial Palace’s Sacred Mountain wasn’t some hidden secret. Plenty of people came to worship there, so it didn’t take long to find one.

The group stepped inside and followed the winding path deeper into the mountain.

Within, it opened into a world of its own.

Deep in the mountain’s core lay a massive underground palace.

It was vast and imposing, its walls carved with ancient runic formations that gave off a faint golden glow.

At the very heart of the palace stood a towering altar.

Suspended above it hung an enormous coffin.
