The Demon Cave of the Great Xia Empire had always been a forbidden land, unsealed and untamed.
Time had left bizarre scars upon its surface, rendering the land barren and the soil as hard as ironstone forged by the ages.
And around this desolate land grew many exceedingly strange plants,
which had long since surpassed the known categories of flora and fauna on Blue Star.
Among them, one type of plant was the most numerous and particularly eye-catching.
Their appearance was much like that of desert cacti, but atop these cacti grew lifelike human faces.
These faces seemed to be endowed with life, sometimes revealing bizarre smiles, other times showing expressions of terror, sending a chill down one's spine.

Relying on her outstanding Body Technique and keen perception, she landed steadily on the grounds of the Demon Cave.
