âthere are twelve main mountains here, right?â li qiye stared at her and said.
âancestor, are you implying that the primary lake is located at the thirteenth peak? that would make sense.â she realized the implication.
the thirteenth mountain was another legend but none had been able to find it. rumor has it it was hidden somewhere inconspicuous and shrouded by the progenitorâs supreme technique.
another spoke of it being underground. as long as it was around, desolate frontier could never be destroyed.
the third mentioned outer space - a hidden location containing the legacies of desolate ancestor as well.
future descendants have naturally searched every inch, both below and above. alas, they added nothing new to these rumors.
in recent generations, they dismissed it entirely. some thought the thirteenth peak didnât exist at all.
âwhy are both so elusive?â she asked. why did the progenitor have to hide them?
âyou tell me.â li qiye said.
âafraid of others coveting them?â she answered.
âany of these immortal artifacts is just a fortune at best, a shortcut.â li qiye said: ânothing can truly make someone immortal, they only serve to polish the dao heart in some ways.â
âi understand. just like how there is no merit law to make someone become an emperor, they have to create their own grand dao.â she murmured.
in desolate frontier alone, disciples had access to imperial, primal, and even the ultimate desolate scripture.
did all of them find success? no, the majority never came close to becoming an emperor, not even a desolate god. they simply couldnât create a dao.
therefore, one needed to persevere and maintain their dao heart without ever giving up. the merit laws were merely external help.
nevertheless, she was still curious about the form of the item.
âis it the end of the earth vein with all the worldly essences?â she asked.
âthat can only nourish, not polish the dao heart.â li qiye smiled and stood up to take a look at the floating stone.
âancestor, what is this thing?â she asked.
âyou all have been talking about it, the supreme immortal treasure hidden here.â li qiye smiled.
âthis is it?â she found it astonishing since this amalgamation of stones didnât look like a supreme treasure at all.
