Then he pointed to the palace above him.

"We are the Heavenly Secrets Prediction Palace, the most proficient in divination, so we can naturally predict your future."

"Before my Palace Master entered the Immortal Tomb, he predicted that someone would come to this place in the future, and that you, young friend, would be the one to inherit these things."

"Young friend, don't worry, please come in. We will not harm you."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan was skeptical, but since the other party had already spoken for so long, it wouldn't be right not to go.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Fan flew towards the other party.

But halfway through the flight, Yang Fan stopped again, shaking his head repeatedly.

"No, if you are skilled in divination, you should be able to foresee that going to the Immortal Tomb would result in total annihilation. Wouldn't that mean all your efforts would be in vain? Do you still want to go under those circumstances?"

Upon hearing this, the old man glanced at Yang Fan and then sighed softly.

"Young friend, in this world, there are some things that we know are impossible but still do. Even if we know the outcome will be bad, we still have to go and try our best, otherwise we will only face death."

Seeing that Yang Fan wanted to continue asking questions, the old man waved his hand.

"The secrets within are beyond your current capabilities to uncover. Once you are stronger, you will naturally understand what I am talking about."

"However, I still want to remind you that when our Heavenly Mystery Palace ventured deep into the Immortal Tomb, it wasn't solely to search for any treasures, but to eliminate a powerful enemy."

"Although we paid an extremely heavy price for this, with the entire Tianji Palace being destroyed, we also severely damaged our powerful enemy, so the price was worth it."

"Alright, young friend, please follow me."

As he spoke, the man continued to fly upwards.

Left with no other choice, Yang Fan also leaped up and flew upwards.

When he flew to the top of the palace, he saw that the old man was still flying upwards, and he couldn't help but frown.

"Senior, haven't we already reached the top? Why are we still flying upwards?"

"Young friend, please keep up."

The old man continued to wave at Yang Fan, ignoring Yang Fan's words, and simply flew upwards.

After a while, he had already penetrated the roof of the palace.

Seeing this, Yang Fan had no choice but to grit his teeth and charge upwards. However, the expected situation of his head hitting the palace did not occur. Instead, Yang Fan appeared in another space.

Yang Fan looked around in utter astonishment.

"What's going on?"

Upon hearing this, the old man smiled slightly.

"Wasn't that storage bag you had on you just now capable of concealing your presence? The same applies to our situation here."

He pointed this way.

"When ordinary cultivators arrive here, they will only think that this palace is the true location of our Heavenly Mystery Deduction Palace, but they don't know that the real strength of our Heavenly Mystery Deduction Palace lies up there."

"This is the truly powerful place. We've concealed it with an array, so no one else can find it. Only with my permission can one enter."

At this point, the illusory figure looked at Yang Fan with a smile.

Yang Fan nodded slightly. It seemed that he had also benefited from the influence of the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Deduction Palace; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to come here.

Yang Fan then looked around at the situation.

Although this place is not as large as the main hall below, the value of everything here is obviously much higher.

Looking around, Yang Fan saw a sundial about ten feet in size not far ahead. The sundial looked extremely weathered and ancient.

After glancing at it twice, Yang Fan reached out to touch the sundial.

Seeing this, the old man quickly stopped him.

"Don't touch that thing. It's related to the laws of time. If you touch it, it might have a negative impact on you."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan quickly withdrew his hand. He nodded and turned his gaze to the side, where he saw a celestial globe placed in the corner of the small palace.

At this very moment, the armillary sphere is constantly evolving different celestial phenomena.

Seeing this, Yang Fan stared at the armillary sphere with great interest.

"This is a nice item. May I take it with me?"

Upon hearing this, the old man glanced at him and then shook his head slightly.

"Your Excellency should leave some legacy for our Heavenly Secrets Divination Palace."

"This item is a powerful tool for divination and stargazing. Without it, the lineage of our Heavenly Secrets Divination Palace would truly be severed."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan couldn't help but think to himself that this person was petty.

But he still nodded.

Then he turned his gaze and began searching the surrounding palaces. Soon, Yang Fan stopped on a jade box.

This is a black jade box with yellow talismans pasted on it.

After glancing at the jade box, Yang Fan couldn't help but swallow hard.

"This is a nice item; I'd like to take it with me."

Upon hearing this, the old man looked at Yang Fan with surprise and then shook his head repeatedly.

"There's nothing good in here, young friend. Are you really going to take it with you?"

Yang Fan nodded.

"I'm taking it with me. What, is there some secret inside?"

Upon hearing this, the old man sighed.

"This was left behind by a powerful figure who once broke into the Heavenly Mystery Palace."

"He broke into the Heavenly Mystery Divination Palace back then, but was subdued by the traps we set up there and almost died."

"If this person hadn't been so skilled, he would probably have died here long ago."

"Even so, he still left some things behind."

"Then I sealed this thing away and left it here. This thing is quite ominous, so I put it here."

Yang Fan nodded upon hearing this.

"Then I'll take this with me. Since you don't want to keep it, I'll just take it with me, won't I?"

Upon hearing this, the old man was at a loss for words for a moment, but after a long while he nodded.

"Alright, in that case, take this with you."

"However, I must remind you, young friend, that you must not remove the yellow talisman on it, otherwise it will do you a lot of harm and no benefit."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan nodded and immediately and carefully put the jade box away.

After putting away the jade box, Yang Fan looked around.

It must be said that the Heavenly Secrets Deduction Palace has quite a few good things. Yang Fan found a lot of jade slips related to divination on the side.
