Jiang Bai was barely an acquaintance in the Coral Palace, and although he hadn't seen him for a while, those witches still remembered him.

"I'm looking for Kokomi, is she free now?"

"Wait a minute, I'll go and ask."

A shrine maiden went to pass the word, and not long after, Sangonomiya Kokomi came out.

"Long time no see, Mr. Jiang Bai."

"It's been a long time, but Miss Kokomi is still as busy as ever."

"Fortunately, since the end of the war, Watatsumi Island has returned to calm, and there are not as many things to keep me busy as before."

It's not as much as it used to be, but it's still a lot.

People's livelihood, commerce, trade, food, faith...... And so on and so forth, all of which she needs to worry about.

But at least I have my own free time, and with the help of other shrine maidens, life is back to normal.

She is also going to wait for a while to go out for a walk and see a different scenery.

"I'm here to enter the abyss, the abyss where the people of your Watatsumi Island originated."

Jiang Bai goes straight to the point.

"You should be talking about [Yuanxia Palace]."

"Yuanxia Palace?"

"Yes." Kokomi walked out of the Coral Palace and came to the clearing in front of the Coral Palace, looking down at the huge deep pool below.

"That's the entrance to the Sango Palace, and legend has it that it's the origin of the Watatsumi people."

"Huh? But I've been down to see it before, but I didn't see any entrances. ”

As soon as Jiang Bai came to Watatsumi Island, he felt that this deep pool was not simple, especially when he heard the old people here say that they came down from the bottom of the sea, so they jumped straight down.

However, the water in this deep pool is very deep, and you can't go down after diving to a certain depth.

"Because the entrance is closed, it needs to be opened in a special way."

Sangonomiya Kokomi taught them about the origins of the Umiki people, and her story was clearer than all the old men and shrine maidens had told.

"Our ancestors originated in the Land of the White Nights, relying on the meager light of the recorded Great Sun Imperial Palace, and survived under the claws of the dragon heirs of the deep sea.

"Thousands of years ago, the Great God of Watatsumi descended to defeat the Ryutsui of the Deep Sea, and finally led us back to the surface to establish the Coral Palace, making Watatsumi Island our new home.

"And the White Night Kingdom under the sea is called Yuanxia Palace from now on, opposite to the Coral Palace on the sea."

"It turns out that the Lost Ancient Kingdom refers to the White Night Kingdom...... "Hearing this, Ah Hat put one hand on his chin, and couldn't help but think more.

According to the Fatui, Teyvat's original natives were dragon lizards.

The dragon heir in the mouth of this shrine maiden refers to the dragon lizard.

Humanity began to appear in this world only after the arrival of the primordial man, Phanes.

The dragon lizards that can be seen now, whether they are baby rock dragon lizards or giant rock dragon lizards, are no longer what they were at the beginning.

Of course, no one knows what the original dragon lizard looked like.

Sangonomiya Xinhai swept over the contemplative hat, and his gaze fell on Jiang Bai.

"I also happen to have a request, which is related to the Yuanxia Palace."

"Oh?"

"The problem of the sacred land on Watatsumi Island is getting worse, and although the food supply has been resolved, in the long run, I am afraid that we will no longer be able to grow plants on Watatsumi Island......"

"I knew about the holy land problem of Haiqi Island before, what is the holy land problem?"

"Just as people's hearts and water always flow to the dripping, the "spirit" of Watatsumi Island is attracted by the depth of the Enshita Palace, so the land is gradually whitened, that is, the holy land."

"According to the traditional teachings, every few hundred years, when the spiritual veins flow appropriately, you need to untie the barrier that blocks the connection between the Enshita Palace and the Coral Palace, sneak into the Enxia Palace, and take out a coral left by the Great God to suppress the dragon heir of the deep sea

Jade branches.

"By borrowing a jade branch to perform the Watatsumi Imperial Spirit Sacrifice, you can return the sunken "spirit" and curb the erosion of the holy land."

"So, do you want me to take the coral jade branch, or do you want me to suppress the dragon lizard?"

"Take the coral jade branch, as for whether the dragon heir needs to be suppressed, it depends on the situation."

"No problem!" Jiang Bai agreed.

If he wants to enter the Enxia Palace, he needs the coral jade branches of the Enxia Palace, which is completely mutually beneficial.

Jiang Bai agreed too easily, and Kokomi felt the need to inform him of the hidden dangers.

"We haven't opened the entrance to Yuanxia Palace for hundreds of years, and we don't have many historical records with reference value. No one knows what dangers lie underneath, and there may even be more dangerous creatures than dragons sneaking into them......"

The history of the people of Watatsumi is mostly passed down by word of mouth, and thousands of years have passed, and they have no idea what exactly what is under the Enshita Shrine.

This is also why Xinhai entrusted Jiang Bai to an outsider to find the coral jade branch.

"No problem, it's not that I haven't been to a more dangerous place. And I'm not alone, and this companion of mine is also very strong. ”

Jiang Bai reached out and grabbed Ah Hao's shoulder and pulled him in front of him.

"Let me introduce you, Xiliu, it's very powerful!"

Ah Hat's attitude was quite good and he said hello.

"Then it's a problem for both of you. I will hold a ceremony as soon as possible to lift the fivefold seal and open the door to the Enxia Palace. ”

The seals of the Enxia Palace are quite complicated, and the locations of these seals are scattered all over Watatsumi Island, but fortunately, there is a personal order from the present god and witch, and Jiang Bai only needs to sit and wait.

Ah Hat has not been idle for the past few days, and found the advance party of the Fatui walking on Watatsumi Island.

It's just that these people have learned too little information, and their understanding of Yuanxia Palace is far less than that of the current gods and witches.

The passage of the abyss was successfully opened, and Jiang Bai took the [Key to the Abyss] given to him by Xinhai, and together with Ah Mao, jumped down from the huge deep pool in front of the Coral Palace.

The pool was bottomless, and the light became darker and darker the further down, and there was a sense of fear that I was about to enter an unknown place.

After I don't know how long I dived, finally, through the water curtain, I was able to breathe and my feet were on the ground.

It's a huge underground space, buried deep in the depths of the sea, with only a few fluorescent plants that glow.

Jiang Bai took out the lumen stone to illuminate, and the surroundings suddenly brightened.

The underground cavern is in the shape of a straight cylinder, and the sea water is separated from the entrance by an unknown barrier.

"It's good that it's us, otherwise we wouldn't be able to go back."

The big snake who left here with the people of the White Night Country back then probably didn't want people to come back.

This kind of terrain is extremely difficult for even a person with a Vision to climb to the entrance back into the water, and then swim back to the surface from the bottom of the deep sea.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect the sacred soil of Watatsumi Island, so much so that he had to open it once every few hundred years to take the coral jade branches.

Jiang Bai put all the plump pearls bred in the surrounding shells into his pocket, and looked at the cave with some expectation.
