The scene around the waterfall crackled with vibrant energy, a tangible force that pulsed in rhythm with the very fabric of the universe. An unsettling sensation pricked at Yun Lintian. This concentration of pure water element surpassed anything he'd ever encountered. It was unnatural, a discordant note in the symphony of nature.

The shimmering waters of the pool seemed to call out to him, a siren's song of power and promise. As he approached its edge, the Moon symbol on his Divine Core, usually dormant and serene, throbbed with a sudden, insistent urgency. The sensation was as if the relic had recognized something extraordinary within the pool and was urging him to partake.

Yun Lintian was perplexed. After he arrived in this world, the Moon relic had remained silent. Now, its sudden awakening in the presence of this potent water source hinted at a connection, a hidden significance that intrigued and unsettled him.

Unable to ignore the relic's insistent call, he shed his outer garments, revealing the lean, muscular physique honed by years of rigorous cultivation. With a decisive leap, he plunged into the crystalline depths, the cool water embracing him like a lover's touch.

Beneath the surface, the water was even more vibrant, teeming with a life force that thrummed against his skin. The Moon symbol on his core resonated in harmony, pulsing with an almost joyous energy.

As he delved deeper into the pool, the intensity of the water essence amplified, seeping into his pores and flooding his meridians. His Divine Core, a swirling vortex of energy, spun faster and faster, greedily absorbing the pure water essence.

The Moon relic, bathed in the revitalizing energy, seemed to swell with power, its ethereal glow intensifying. Yun Lintian could feel its influence spreading throughout his body, enhancing his senses and sharpening his focus.

In the embrace of the water, a subtle, yet profound shift occurred. The vibrant energy that coursed through the pool resonated with an ancient echo, a whisper from a time long past. It was an aura unlike any he had encountered in the world he came from, a primordial essence that spoke of a different era, a different reality.

Yun Lintian's senses, heightened by the water essence and the Moon relic, detected this ancient aura with startling clarity. It was like a melody played on an instrument from a forgotten age, a haunting tune that resonated with the deepest parts of his soul.

A sense of awe and wonder washed over him. Could it be that this grove was not simply a hidden pocket of space within their world, but a remnant of a bygone era, a fragment of the Primordial Era that had somehow survived the ravages of time?

Suddenly, a fantastical notion flickered across Yun Lintian's mind. Could he have somehow… traversed back to the Primordial Era? The impossible theory sent a tremor through him.

The sheer intensity of the water element, its purity exceeding anything he'd ever known, resonated with a primal energy. Was this the birthplace of his world, the cradle of creation where the fundamental elements pulsed with such raw, unbridled power?

Yun Lintian put his thoughts aside and continued to explore the depths of the pool. He discovered that the ancient aura was most concentrated near the base of the waterfall. It was as if the water itself was a conduit, channeling this primordial essence from an unknown source.

Driven by an insatiable curiosity, Yun Lintian swam towards the waterfall, his body effortlessly gliding through the water. He reached out and touched the moss-covered rock face behind the cascade, feeling the raw power of the ancient aura coursing through it.

Closing his eyes, he focused his senses, trying to unravel the secrets hidden within the energy. He saw flashes of images, fragmented scenes from a time when the world was young, when mighty beings roamed the land and the heavens were ablaze with celestial phenomena.

He saw towering mountains that scraped the sky, vast oceans teeming with monstrous creatures, and lush forests filled with mythical beasts. It was a world of raw power and untamed beauty, a world that existed long before the rise of human civilization.

The visions faded, leaving Yun Lintian breathless and awestruck. He had glimpsed a world that defied imagination, a world that challenged everything he thought he knew about himself.

Doubt gnawed at him. Could it be that he had truly been thrust back in time to the Primordial Era? But why he felt something was amiss here? The thought was both thrilling and terrifying, opening up a realm of possibilities yet also raising countless questions.

Surfacing from the pool, Yun Lintian emerged with a mind ablaze with questions and theories. The energy here thrummed with an unparalleled purity, surpassing even the Moon relic's essence. He grappled with the implications. Such a concentration of elemental power was unheard of in the Divine Realm he hailed from. Was this a hidden facet of this world, or a testament to an era long gone? The possibilities ignited a spark of curiosity within him, a yearning to unravel the secrets this world held.

While Yun Lintian was pondering over the mystery, a hush fell over the Yun Clan's grand pavilion, its luxurious interior echoing with the unnerving silence of their spectators' area. Yun Wuhan sat rigid, his knuckles white as he gripped the armrests of his ornate chair. His gaze, usually brimming with unwavering confidence, now reflected a tremor of unease.

The atmosphere was thick with unspoken anxiety as the Yun Clan elders exchanged furtive glances, their faces etched with concern.

In stark contrast to their apprehension, the observers outside the pavilion were abuzz with hushed whispers. The points scoreboard, a towering monolith that illuminated the plaza, displayed a glaring truth: Yun Lintian, the Yun Clan's prodigious heir, stood at a disheartening zero.

"It's been hours," a wizened elder from the neighboring Bai Clan muttered, his voice laced with a hint of schadenfreude, "and still no points from the Yun prodigy. It seems the Azure Spring Grove is not as welcoming as he might have thought."

His words sparked a ripple of murmurs among the onlookers.

Meanwhile, Qing Zong looked at the scoreboard with a hint of doubt.

A sliver of doubt flickered across the prince's brow. "Are you certain about him, Uncle Su?" he inquired, directing his question at the wizened old man beside him. Su Jian, his personal guard and most trusted confidante, had vouched for Yun Lintian's prowess.

Su Jian stroked his beard thoughtfully. "Only time will tell, Your Highness," he replied with measured calmness.
