Chapter 2657: 2657
A dao source was the very foundation of a system . Its absence signaled total destruction in just one night . All of the inhabitants there would die as well .
Thus, nothing was more important than the ao source . As long as it was still around, there were still hope and possibilities left . Once it withered or exploded, so would the system .
Everyone in Imperial knew about the decline of Stone Harmony but strangely enough, it remained in Imperial .
That’s why some progenitors believed that its dao source was still around and didn’t weaken at all .
This statement was paradoxical and hard to believe . Keep in mind that the disciples and living beings in a system had a symbiotic relationship with the source .
A disciple would cultivate the system’s merit laws and feel the grand dao power here . During this entire process, this disciple would be nourished by the system .
As for the system, having more powerful disciples only fertilized the grand dao power and the source itself .
Thus, a well-nourished dao source would result in an increase of powerful disciples, and vice versa .
As generations passed, the members of Stone Harmony only decreased in strength and number . The system no longer received the nourishment from its members so the dao source should be weakened or even withering .
However, the dao source inside the jar was still dazzling with immortal rays . Its grand dao power has materialized into extremely concentrated grand dao water .
This dao water was unbelievably dense and ancient after years and years of accumulation and refinement . It has become the purest form of grand dao water . Just one drop could greatly benefit an entire kingdom . For example, Mingluo would be full of life after one drop . Its disciples would obtain majestic dao energy .
Strangely enough, Li Qiye had no interest in the dao source . His focus was on the stone jar instead .
Any reasonable person would know the significance behind obtaining a dao source . It was akin to controlling an entire system . Li Qiye didn’t share the same feelings .
It looked as if the jar was the priceless treasure in his eyes, the thing worth getting .
Well, in reality, there were numerous dao sources in Imperial and Immortal Lineage similar to this one, but this stone jar was one-and-only .
“This is the so-called immortal stone . ” Li Qiye said after long observation .
This stone was the reason why the dao source manages to stay fresh through the eras .
“Old man, I’ve found what I needed to . Time for an answer . ” Li Qiye grinned: “I don’t like being a good guy for no reason and my price isn’t cheap . Are you all ready to pay?”
He certainly wasn’t afraid of the person not paying because the guy was a big shot . Of course, the exorbitant price was going to hurt . The guy would certainly bleed with pain .
Li Qiye smiled with nothing but amusement in his eyes: “Three Immortals World . . . though I’m not a savior and I have no intention of becoming one, since someone has paid me to do so, then why not, let’s get the best out of it . ”
The thing he wanted was certainly extraordinary . He wondered what the guy’s expression would be like after being asked for it .
He eventually gave the dao source a look and said: “This system found fortune in a calamity . A golden age will come after this decline if its descendants put in the effort . ”
After enough years, this dao source has accumulated enough grand dao power to turn into this liquid form .
Once it returned to Stone Harmony, the system would be full of life once more and ready for a complete revitalization . Geniuses would appear in waves and bring glory back to the system .
“You all have done your best against the calamity and successfully defended the system . ” Li Qiye looked at the three emperors and Eternals .
He was right . Stone Harmony’s lucky survival was due to the effort of these sages .
Their system stood at the apex back then with three emperors and countless Eternals . However, the evil entity from the sky descended and instantly drilled into the ground .
They went all out in order to kill it . The resulting battle was brutal, resulting in losing ninety-percent of their masters .
Nevertheless, they still managed to destroy it, albeit unable to slay it completely . The group here consisted of the few survivors .
They realized that the escaped limbs of this creature would return one day . Thus, they decided to hide the dao source and the immortal stone while still hoping that their descendants could make something out of themselves .
Unfortunately, not a single new emperor came out of Stone Harmony after them .
Meanwhile, the limbs of the evil creature healed for many years and eventually grew a complete body once more . It started looking for the stone and dao source by swallowing up entire cities .
Alas, it came back at the wrong time since Li Qiye was around and got annihilated by him .
Li Qiye told the corpses: “Forget it, this is also fate . I shall help your system instead of taking its dao source . ”
If Li Qiye willed so, he could have refined this dao source and take its power for himself . This mighty and pure dao source would be extremely nutritious for him . He decided otherwise; greed didn’t prevail this time around .
He made his move without being affected by the existing defensive measures . They couldn’t stop him anyway, not even if they were alive .
“Here is Stone Harmony’s chance . ” He said flatly before grabbing the dao source with both hands: “Up you go!”
“Rumble!” Loud explosions detonated as he slowly lifted up the dao source . It seemed that the entire world was being dragged up by him as well .
A dao source was immensely heavy . No one else but him would be able to do this .
