July 22, evening.
In Huai State, Guangling Prefecture, the Heavenly Capital of Tianjing City.
The colossal city swallowed mountains and rivers; one of the most important Water Dragon Veins in Divine Land, the Heavenly Barrier River, encircled the city.
"Zhongshan cradles the Stone City, its dominance once soared. Heaven opened for the Emperor to reside; the sea's hue reflected upon the palace gates.
Masses of peaks chased like deer, rushing and racing abruptly. Water of the river in nine paths comes, in the clouds, it fades away distantly!"
Nearly three hundred years ago,
this city was where the Great Yan Ancestor began his dragon's rise, starting a military campaign from here, achieving what was in all the ages of Red County Shenzhou the only south-to-north unification by a Dynasty.
At the nation's founding, this Heavenly Capital was even made the Imperial Capital for a time.
