As the system notification faded, the grand theater around them began to change once more.
The rows of seats dissolved into particles of light while cardboard audiences melted away.
The grand stage that was in front of them began to crack apart before sinking into the ground.
In only a few moments, the entire battlefield transformed.
A sea of green spread across their vision.
Rolling grassy fields stretched toward the horizon while countless mountain peaks rose in the distance.
Ancient stone paths wound through the landscape, connecting one temple to another. Some temples sat atop cliffs, overlooking the valleys below.
Others were hidden among forests of tall pine trees, their roofs barely visible beneath the thick greenery.
Just being within this place carried a strange spiritual feeling.
Prayer bells gently swayed despite the absence of wind.
Adam faintly caught a whiff of incense that drifted through the air.
At first glance, the scenery appeared peaceful...
