Under the sunlight, the thirty-six Water Drop Gems sparkled brilliantly. As if sensing each other's presence, they began to tremble slightly, their surfaces shimmering with a clear light.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath as they gathered around the gems, their eyes wide open, refusing to miss a single detail.
The shimmering light grew increasingly dazzling, and the frequency of the flashes quickened. Finally, at a certain moment, all thirty-six gems erupted with a breathtaking radiance before merging together to form a necklace composed of thirty-six Water Drop Gems.
This was the true form of the Great Sage's relic.
The moment the necklace saw the light of day once more, a brilliant emerald glow outlined a scroll before everyone's eyes. It was a map of Giant Demon Valley.
On this map, two pitch-black areas were clearly marked. One was located outside the valley, almost at the edge of the map, while the other was situated in the deepest part of the valley.
