 ==== Divine Root Subdual ====
+{{ :readable:db.xl:divine-root-subdual.png?200|}} According to the "History of the Xianzhou," Yubie, the High Elder of the time, moved the entire Lunarescent Depths into the Luofu delve with the help of hundreds of Preceptors. He cast cloudhymn to seal the Ambrosial Arbor roots under the water to prevent them from corrupting the folks with plague.
+About the actual means of sealing the Ambrosial Arbor roots, the "History of the Xianzhou" only describes that they are "suppressed with cloudhymn." "Actual Record of the Vastness" leaves me even more speechless, as it merely records that the roots are "suppressed with a secret spell." It's all because the long-life species prefer to keep their technologies a secret. The so-called "secret spell" is actually just a scientific technology of the Vidyadhara that is kept classified.
+After the roots were subdued, the Vidyadhara Preceptors built the Dragonvista Rain Hall and a statue to commemorate Yubie. Sutuan, the Preceptor that contributed the most financially, engraved "The Account of Preceptor Sutuan Crafting a Statue of the High Elder" on the statue base. To my knowledge, many Vidyadhara loathed the story that praised Yubie for "pacifying the Six Charioteers and creating a peaceful era." Their sentiment is not hard to understand. From the Vidyadhara's perspective, they offered the precious sacred realm from their hometown and the Ichor Lines they took pride in. For an analogy, it is like the Intelligentsia Guild offering the rarest tome in the library in exchange for a place to stay.
+While the upheaval in the Scalegorge Waterscape was ongoing, my investigator friend and I did a simple research. First of all, we found that the Vidyadhara had indeed used an unknown technique to gather water around the roots of the Ambrosial Arbor, like how it was written in the books. Secondly, we discovered an amazing relic hidden in the depth of the water. I have no idea what Bernini took from it back then, but I believe I will figure it out soon...

 ==== High-Cloud Quintet ====
+{{ :readable:db.xl:high-cloud-quintet.png?200|}} The Intelligentsia Guild once witnessed and even participated in the multiple battles between the Xianzhou people and the Denizens of Abundance to record and interpret the Xianzhou people's tactics and techniques. The brutality and darkness of every battle had always helped those dazzling souls shine. In addition to the well-known figures like the Seven Arbiter-Generals, there are many legendary heroes on the Xianzhou who have left their names in history.
+The High-Cloud Quintet is a historical story of the beloved heroes of the Xianzhou people. As members of the long-life species, they only had a short-lived brilliance, making their story even more splendid.
+When the Denizens of Abundance had gathered a massive army to attack the Yuque, five heroes from different Xianzhou ships came together. Among them was a sharpshooting foxian pilot and a short-life species that came to the Xianzhou to learn. The five ventured to perilous lands and successfully killed the enemies. They destroyed the incarnosphere created by the Denizens of Abundance and prevented the Yuque from collapsing.
+This legend inspired many Xianzhou poets and foxian immersia, and their works made the five heroes famous. Unlike the historical background behind the story of the Seven Arbiter-Generals, the story of the High-Cloud Quintet is more like a heroic tale created by the folks.
+Unfortunately, their heyday did not last long. In less than a century, the heroes parted ways and passed away. There was even a dark prophecy hinting at depravity and betrayal among the five. Other than General Jing Yuan, who can still be often seen in public now, the rest of the group has faded into oblivion and is hardly mentioned.
+As a cultural phenomenon, the High-Cloud Quintet seems to have always existed alongside the Alliance over time. This reminds me of a serialized novel that has been active for more than 30 years. There is a story titled //17 Days of Crown//, which centers around a regime in the history of the Morrowen Kingdom that existed for only seventeen days, destroyed by the Antimatter Legion. Despite the short reign, the story of the regime will never end.
+This is probably how the Xianzhou people perceive the High-Cloud Quintet. As long as people keep telling their stories, the stories will go on forever, and so will the best times of the Alliance. After all, it is hard not to be entranced by the illusion of nostalgia.
