nLi Qiye didn’t take the water or any of the grass. His focus turned to a pile of rocks.
nAfter fully gathering the grass, the demon god came over and stood next to Li Qiye. He stared at the rock pile as well.
nThere was nothing special about a bunch of white rocks stacked randomly in this manner. However, he eventually noticed something weird – the rocks were connected with each other.
nIt seemed as if after the pile was made, they were burned by an unbelievable flame, resulting in the surface melting and fusing together. In other words, contrary to their appearance, they have become a single entity. Each individual rock was crucial to the whole and couldn’t be missed.
nHe then crouched down in front of it and tapped gently. There was a heavy echo, a sign of calcification.
n“Hmm…” He started pondering that this rock was actually a bone.
n“Take out your item.” Li Qiye ordered.
nHe immediately took out the treasure box with an incredible seal. The power stemming from it was ancient and seemingly unbeatable. The content inside must be nothing short of amazing because the seal itself was rather precious. Only a top master could do something like this.
nHe had a respectful expression, not because of Li Qiye but rather, the box. This was something left behind by Space Dragon Emperor – an heirloom of Dragon.
nIt wasn’t quite a treasure because no one in Dragon has been able to understand the thing inside. Nonetheless, they still revered it due to its prestigious origin.
nSpace Dragon Emperor personally sealed it in Dragon Platform. How many treasures were worthy of this?
nLi Qiye demanded it a while ago and he yielded, accepting all responsibilities. He knew that they had no chance of stopping him in the first place.
nThe only difference between handing it over and fighting was the number of dead disciples. Dragon might turn to ashes as a result.
nLi Qiye accepted the box and formed a mudra. A pulsing light manifested and opened the seal on the box.
nThe demon didn’t know what to say after seeing this. The seal required a special incantational mudra to open. This was a secret from Dragon only known by a few.
nWithout this mudra, no outsider would be able to open the box. This wasn’t the case for Li Qiye at all. He did it faster and easier than some of Dragon’s ancestors while not knowing the special incantation.
nHe took out the item inside and this made the demon realize something.
n“I see, I get it now.” The latter said.
nThe thing inside was hard to describe. It had a long shape with random warpings and a white hue. He didn’t think that it was a bone until now with the rock pile in front of him.
nThe heirloom turned out to be something similar to the fused bones, consisting of dozens of “rocks” being melted together.
nLi Qiye sat down and pressed the heirloom into the pile of rock. It turned out that this thing was a perfect match and made the rock pile complete.
n“So the progenitor came here before.” The demon understood the use of his sect’s heirloom.
nIt wasn’t a treasure but a part of this rock pile. Perhaps this was the key to the more important part. This was the reason why they couldn’t figure out the item – its incomplete nature.
n“Not just your Space Dragon Emperor, others have visited this place too.” Li Qiye said.
n“Others? The top dao lords such as Sword Queen?” He asked. From his knowledge, top dao lords such as Sword Queen and Nine-wheel were the most likely to come here.
nLi Qiye only smiled and didn’t answer.
n“I’m guessing our heirloom is the key, how come he didn’t open this place for a chance at immortality?” He was curious about this issue.
nIf top beings have come here, they certainly noticed the biggest clue as well. Most importantly, his progenitor might be the first one here after the battle between Feng Qi and Jiu Bian. He even took away part of the rock pile and removed everyone’s chances.
nWhy did he do it? And what about the others? All of these top beings desired immortality. Why didn’t they take advantage of this opportunity?
nIf they had done it, the world would have known of their wondrous tale and legends would have started.
