“If you have any questions, just ask directly.”
“I will consider carefully.”
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master smiled.
He was happy to answer questions for such an excellent disciple like Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan hesitated no longer and said:
“Pavilion Master, I want to know, what is our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s purpose in exploring the Underworld?”
He had been curious for a long time.
Because, among the rules of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion for the Underworld, there was one that defied common sense.
And that was.
Everything obtained from exploration belonged to the explorer.
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion seemed to care only about expanding more space.
The merit reward emphasis observed later showed a clue.
Developing a few hundred feet of hidden space earned three thousand meritorious points.
Even handing over a Spiritual Artifact only got a mere thousand meritorious points.
This seemed quite out of place.
Upon hearing this.
The three Demon Emperors’ eyes flashed with insight.
Apparently, they too had harbored questions about this for a long time.
What exactly had the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion been digging for all these years?
They seemed to care little about treasures.
Only focused on expanding larger spaces.
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master thought for a moment, not hiding it from the present three Demon Emperors, nor from Jiang Fan.
“Very few people have questioned this anymore.”
“Everyone has become accustomed to the rules passed down for hundreds of years.”
“Since I assumed the position of Pavilion Master, only two disciples have raised this question.”
“One was Ye Banxia.”
“The other is you.”
Jiang Fan nodded.
That mythic prodigy skilled in scheming and strategizing?
Strangely, Jiang Fan had snatched away her jade-carved phoenix chair.
To this day, she has shown no sign of retaliation?
Or is she laying out plans, preparing for a big move?
Shaking his head, he concentrated, focusing intently to continue listening to the Pavilion Master.
“Our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is searching for the Ancient Saints.”
Rumble——
Such shocking words.
Stunned everyone present, including the three Demon Emperors, like a bolt out of the blue.
Searching for what?
The Ancient Saints?
The nine Ancient Saints who created heaven and earth?
The Pavilion Master said:
“That Ancient Saint is the hope for solving the predicament of the Ancient Giants.”
“For a thousand years, our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has been searching.”
“Unfortunately, with the Ancient Giants about to descend again, we still haven’t found any.”
He glanced at Jiang Fan, with a hint of regret in his eyes:
“Our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has walked this path for a thousand years.”
“In the end, we failed.”
“If talents like you and Ye Banxia had emerged five hundred years earlier, in that era of abundant resources, perhaps you could have advanced even farther than our predecessors.”
“Sadly, our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is unworthy of the name ‘Heavenly Mechanism’.”
“In the end, the Heavenly Mechanism has never been on our side.”
