Why do I have this feeling?

In the world where Chen Chu and his friends lived, the historical breaks were too severe.

It is difficult to ascertain exactly what happened in ancient times.

Therefore, we are unaware of many things from ancient times.

Now, Chen Chu speculates.

This immortal, known as the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, is very likely a player from the ancient Spirit Realm in their world.

Chang'e, who left the inscription, must have been the mistress of the Moon Palace.

Could that headless giant outside be Wu Gang, the companion of the Monkey King that Chang'e mentioned?

What exactly happened back then?

Chen Chu suddenly felt like scratching his head.

The system suddenly issued a notification.

"Ding! Player, please note that the Ancient Mythology exploration progress has reached 1%!"

At this moment, Chen Chu suddenly remembered the requirements of the second side quest: to explore ancient myths.

"Could these things have actually happened?"

The more Chen Chu thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

The blood of immortals and demons scattered in the primeval forest outside the Moon Palace also serves as good evidence.

A fierce battle once took place here, forcing the fairy Chang'e to leave.

Furthermore, the thin line that Chen Chu saw earlier, where the vengeful spirit was obliterated, could very well be a restrictive formation set up by the fairy Chang'e.

Seeing the inscription on the stone tablet, Chen Chu thought of many things.

However, while the mythology needs to be explored, the main quest also needs to be completed.

The first main quest is to find the fairy fruit that the fairy spirits like, and the second quest is to cleanse the impurities.

What kind of celestial fruit does the Monkey King like?

Chen Chu really didn't expect that.

However, since it's a task issued by the system, there must be some kind of prompt somewhere.

Chen Chu walked around the palace and looked at the side halls all around.

There was nothing else here; it was completely empty.

It seems that when Chang'e left this place, she took everything with her.

wrong!

Chen Chu's eyes suddenly lit up!

Actually, the system had already given a hint, which was in the task description.

Opening the quest panel, Chen Chu's gaze fell on side quest one.

Side Quest 1: Gathering! When the immortals left this palace, they left behind a large number of immortal seeds. Quest requirement: Gather two or more immortal seeds whose spiritual essence has not been extinguished.

The clue is here: when Chang'e and her entourage left, they took many things with them.

But since the fairy Chang'e praised the Great Sage Equaling Heaven so much in the inscription, the immortal fruit that the Great Sage liked must still exist!

This confirms what the system task description said.

When the immortals left this palace, they left behind a large number of immortal seeds.

If you look carefully, you will definitely find it.

Chen Chu walked out of the main hall where the Great Sage was and came outside.

Once they arrived here, the level seven or eight ghosts and vengeful spirits stopped chasing them.

It seems that Wu Gang's existence is not just for targeting players.

More importantly, the sound of logging was used to drive away evil spirits.

Chen Chu ran swiftly between the palace complex. Since the fairy Chang'e had taken precautions to prevent evil spirits from disturbing the Great Sage's peace, there should be no danger here.

Then, when Chen Chu arrived at the palace complex behind, he was dumbfounded!

This palace complex has three main halls and more than a dozen side halls.

There are also six or seven houses scattered in various places.

But everywhere was empty. Even the things that were there were just some tables, chairs, and benches.

"How could that be? Would the system lie to me?"

Chen Chu paced back and forth anxiously.

If he still hasn't found the fairy fruit by the time the sound of logging is heard again.

He will have to suffer another fatal injury.

"Oh right, the Fairy Fruit Garden!"

Chen Chu slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten about this.

Since the fairy Chang'e may have left behind a large number of fairy fruits, they must be in the fairy fruit garden!

Chen Chu calmed down and sensed the emotions of the surrounding plants and trees.

Although the emotions of these plants and trees had become extremely faint, Chen Chu could still sense some subtle changes.

"It's right behind the palace complex!"

Chen Chu suddenly opened his eyes and ran straight back, leaving only a blur in his wake.

Upon reaching the rear of the palace complex, Chen Chu saw a pile of huge stones lying on the ground!

From a distance, it looked like a rocky mountain.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that these stones bore very distinct traces of human carving.

Moreover, it even has decorative patterns and some text on it.

What Chen Chu lacked most at that time was written records.

This will allow him to understand what exactly happened back then.

This will also allow him to clear the dungeon as quickly as possible.

"This is the character 'Heaven'..."

Chen Chu wiped the dust off the stones and carefully examined the inscriptions on them as he circled the huge rocky hill.

"The character 'door'... Could these stones form a door?"

Tianmen?

No, there's one more here.

Chen Chu hurried over, wiped away the dust, revealing the character "南" (Nan, meaning south).

"South Heavenly Gate?"

Upon hearing this, the system prompted again.

"Ding! Player, please note that the Ancient Mythology exploration progress has reached 2%!"

As I reached out and touched the broken stones of the South Heavenly Gate, the system suddenly issued another notification.

"The Southern Heavenly Gate, once the gateway to the Heavenly Court for all the immortals of the Celestial Realm!"

Chen Chu clicked his tongue in amazement. No wonder the Moon Goddess Chang'e led everyone in the Moon Palace to retreat.

Even their own front door was smashed here.

These celestial beings from Heaven will certainly not let them off easily.
