A moment before.
The Sun Star [Outer Heaven], amidst the twelve towers and five cities, is where the scenery is best, crafted by Wang Yuan into the Xuanpu Platform of the sleeping palace.
Clouds and mist clung to the peak, streams flowed and surged in the ravine. Fragrance of myriad flowers filled the path, dense in clusters of ten thousand trees.
Plum green and pear white, willow green and peach red. The cuckoo announced the nearing spring's end, while purple swallows murmured as the village shrine concluded.
Under the sweeping brilliance of celestial light, borrowing the omnipresent geothermal heat of the Sun Palace, one after another staircases of hot springs glisten like emerald green jewels adorning the scene.
Wisps of cloud and mist ascend, adding an ethereal air to this piece of Immortal Realm.
A sense of peace and harmony.
