The Gate of the Mysterious Realm

Summary

Shi Mu encounters a massive golden-armored giant ape that exudes an overwhelming pressure, causing him to feel powerless. The giant ape warns him that he has come too early and suddenly lifts him into the air with its enormous hand. Shi Mu experiences a surreal vision of the ape and the universe shrinking around him before waking up in a desolate cave. There, he meets an old blue-robed ape named Qing Yuan, who reveals that they are in a space created by the Heaven-Turning Staff, a powerful weapon Shi Mu possesses. Qing Yuan explains that he is a fragment of intelligence left by the Old Ancestor Bai Yuan and that Shi Mu has been recognized by the staff.

However, Qing Yuan cautions Shi Mu not to get too excited about this revelation.
