When the passage was revealed, a black aura immediately flowed out, causing Yun Lintian and Xing Mo to frown.
"This aura…" Xing Mo frowned deeply. It was definitely the Abyssal aura he knew. Even though Xing Tengfei had cooperated with the Poison Valley, he didn't think Xing Tengfei would bring something contaminated with the Abyssal aura into his courtyard… What exactly happened?
Yun Lintian didn't think about it further. He immediately followed the staircases down and arrived at a small basement room filled with a dark aura. There was little furniture here, looking like a study room.
However, the aura was thin, as if it was about to dissipate at any moment. Without a doubt, there used to have something here.
Yun Lintian scanned the place with the Eyes of Heaven and immediately caught a glimpse of something inside a table's drawer at the corner.
He opened the drawer and saw a small leather book inside. Without thinking much, he immediately checked the contents of the book.
Soon, Yun Lintian's face was full of surprise. The book was a record that Xing Tengfei left behind. This record talked about the interaction between Xing Tengfei and someone called Abyssal Master.
Without a doubt, this Abyssal Master was the overlord of the Abyssal World.
It turned out Xing Tengfei had been in contact with Abyssal Master since the invasion four thousand years ago, and they made an agreement to share the Azure World.
Basically, various operations of the Poison Valley had Xing Tengfei participated in it. He had provided them a lot of conveniences. The growth of Poison Valley during these thousands of years was also Xing Tengfei's credit.
Yun Lintian handed the book to Xing Mu and asked. "Is this Xing Tengfei's handwriting?"
Xing Mu skimmed through the contents of the book and replied. "It's indeed his handwriting."
"Why would he write this kind of diary? This doesn't seem to align with his cautious personality. What's more, he even left it behind." Yun Lintian felt strange.
Xing Mu also didn't know. He flipped through the book a few times and suddenly found something strange.
Immediately, he channeled the star energy, injecting it into the book. The next moment, the book shone brightly and transformed into a blue crystal.
Yun Lintian was taken aback. He looked at the crystal curiously. "What is this?"
Xing Mu grabbed the crystal and said. "It's called Starlight Crystal. Normally, we use it to store our memory."
"Store memory?" Yun Lintian was surprised. "Can you open it?"
Xing Mu nodded heavily and injected the star energy into the crystal.
Buzz—
Suddenly, the entire room was filled with blue starlights, and Xing Tengfei's illusory figure appeared in the middle.
Xing Tengfei didn't seem to see Yun Lintian and Xing Mu. He stood calmly and said. "I don't know who would be the one that found this crystal I left behind. I wish it's my descendant."
Xing Tengfei paused briefly and said further. "What I am going to say next is related to the origin of the Star Gazing Palace. If you're my descendant, please spread the word out. But if you're not, you should better keep it in your heart."
"The Star Gazing Palace might have been founded around four thousand years ago, but In fact, it had existed since this world was born. However, our ancestors didn't show themselves to the world. They preferred to stay low and watch as the world moved forward."
Yun Lintian and Xing Mu glanced at each other in surprise. Especially Xing Mu. He didn't expect his Star Gazing Palace to have such a long history.
"Just like the same suggested, we are nothing but stargazers. We don't interfere with worldly affairs." Xing Tengfei said further.
"However, I don't like this way of living. When the position was passed down to me, I decided to build the Star Gazing Palace to compete for the world."
His eyes shone with ambition as he spoke this.
"Listening to this point, you might be curious. Where were our ancestors come from? Honestly, I am curious about it as well, but I later found an answer through the contact between me and the people from the Divine Realm." Xing Tengfei said in a deep voice.
"Our family actually originated from the Star God Emperor Realm. Our first Ancestor was the eldest son of the Star God Emperor back then, but he encountered spatial turbulence during his journey and appeared in this world."
"Knowing that he couldn't go back, he decided to create a family here and passed down the Star Gazing Divination Art from generation to generation."
"Perhaps he stayed in this world for too long; he later instructed everyone to forget about their origin and lived a secluded life."
Xing Tengfei's expression darkened as he said further. "I don't understand. We have such a powerful background. Why would we have to live like a peasant? Shouldn't we strive for the best and find a way to return to the Divine Realm?"
Yun Lintian frowned deeply after listening to this point. Hongyue once told him about this before that the Star Gazing Divination Art was similar to the Star God Emperor Realm's divination technique. It turned out to be like this.
However, Yun Lintian didn't understand why Xing Tengfei wouldn't just leave this world when he had a chance.
Xing Tengfei went silent for a moment and let out a sigh. "However, I seem to understand what the First Ancestor tried to tell us when I found a chance to step into the Divine Realm."
"Although we have the First Ancestor's blood in our veins, it doesn't mean they would recognize us. I did try to contact them, but they mercilessly refused to recognize me."
His face was filled with helplessness as he spoke. "I should be angry, but I fully understand it well. In this world, strength is everything. With my pitiful strength, even if I want to get angry at them, it's useless, anyway."
"And because of this, I don't dare to step into the Divine Realm. I am afraid they would find me and kill me."
Xing Tengfei suddenly laughed and said. "I once scolded the First Ancestor in my heart for being a coward, but I became one myself in the end. Heh. It's really funny."
