Aldrian entered the secret passage, following Emperor Herman. As they walked deeper into the mountain, Aldrian finally sensed a strong energy source emanating from its depths. The energy was not unfamiliar to him—it was divine energy.
He began to understand where the emperor was leading him. Anything capable of producing divine energy was considered a rare treasure in this land, and each one became a legacy artifact.
The path they walked was quite spacious, wide enough for four people to walk side by side with illumination crystals lit both sides of the corridor.
After walking for ten minutes, they finally arrived at a spacious chamber resembling a hall. In the center of the hall stood a platform surrounded by pond of golden water—something Aldrian immediately recognized as a manifestation of dense divine energy, condensed into liquid form.
The setting reminded him of a place in the Doria Imperial Palace, where their legacy artifact, the Heavenly Guardian Armor, was kept.
