The blistering heat covering the land slowly cooled down as the sun began to set over the horizon. 

The day had passed without much drama, and finally, Damien and Ruyue could see their destination approaching.

In the distance, they could faintly make out the outline of an expansive mountain range whose height reached the clouds, however, its contents were veiled in secrecy.

"It's just as described in the reports from those who have been in this region," Ruyue exclaimed in amazement as she gazed upon the majestic sight.

Damien could only nod his head in response, as his thoughts were also transfixed on the sight in front of them. 

The outline of the mountain range they could truly see was only the tip of the iceberg, as the entirety of its structure was covered by a massive fog that looked almost ethereal.
