Chapter 1438: Dried Trees And Shallow Water (2/2)

Li Qiye smiled and replied: “Who knows if there are immortals in this world or not? However, I’m certain they aren’t here.”

Having said that, he brought her through the palaces and the indiscernible formation. There was a small open s.p.a.ce inside. It didn’t look special at all, especially when the twelve palaces surrounding it were taken into account. People would completely ignore its existence.

There existed a shallow pond that was about to dry up; the water could barely reach one’s instep. Perhaps calling it a puddle was more appropriate.

Next to this little puddle was a very small tree. Its withered self could only reach Li Qiye’s knee while only being a finger thick.

It had died long ago. Even though some of the branches still had leaves, it was definitely dead.

After seeing the puddle and the tiny tree, Li Qiye murmured: “A peerless location, worthy of all my efforts.”

After seeing his expression, she knew that he purposely came to this place. However, she took a look around and found nothing noteworthy. This puddle and dried tree looked very common. This place was definitely not a treasure ground.

“Are there treasures here?” It wasn’t that she didn’t believe him, but this place was too ordinary. No one would look twice after coming here.

He leisurely replied with a grin: “More than just treasures.” He looked as if he was certain of victory and that everything was under his control.

“Where?” She carefully looked around but found nothing valuable.

He answered: “Some things cannot be discerned with the naked eye. The mysteries here would require generations of pondering, even for the greatest genius.”

In fact, this applied to him as well. Throughout the long years, he couldn’t see through it until he obtained the Ancient Void Rune and Heavenly Dao’s Primal Chapter.

Of course, he knew full well that this place had an incredible secret as well as the most extraordinary items in this world. Alas, there was no way of obtaining them before understanding the mysteries. Before that, he only knew of its value.

Later on, he finally understood its true significance. This was one of the reasons why he came to Heaven Spirit.

Of course, it wasn’t Xiaoxiao’s fault that she couldn’t see through the mysteries. Her intelligence surely wasn’t the issue because even Immortal Emperors couldn’t understand them after a few glances.

He told her: “Stand aside and watch.”

She quickly moved far away from this puddle.

Li Qiye took a deep breath and stood in the pond’s water that could only reach his instep.

“Buzz!” He opened his fate palace. All four images came out and immediately arranged themselves at the four corners of the puddle.

The tree of life seemed to be wanting to take root here; the spring of life wanted to turn this place into a spring; the cauldron of life wanted to embed itself deeper and turn into a volcano; the pillar of life directly nailed itself into the ground as if it wanted to connect to the heaven and earth.

“It’s time to begin.” His gazed slightly s.h.i.+fted. With a loud blast, his vitality soared and separated into four strands that flew into each of the four images.

“Splas.h.!.+” With his vitality fueling the images, water began to gush from the spring, filling the pond in just a short period of time.

If one looked carefully, they would find that the drop of water in the spring of life had melted completely and became an indispensable part of the spring. The Life Origination in the pond was gently undulating in the pond in a very quiet manner. It seemed to be fusing with this little pond.

After the merger, the pond water unexpectedly seeped into the ground. The little tree nearby seemed to be absorbing the pond water as if it was parched.
