Chapter 1500 - Vermilion Star
The treasures inside the crystal coffin served as the three elders' lifelines, and even if they handed everything to Liu Wuxie, it wouldn't necessarily help him, because most of those items wouldn't suit him at all.
The three elders had thought carefully before they had chosen those two treasures.
After stabilizing his cultivation, Liu Wuxie stepped out of the Heavenly Deity Monument and reappeared inside the palace. Only a few breaths had passed outside, yet his cultivation had undergone a drastic transformation.
The three elders narrowed their eyes the moment they saw him. Even they couldn't break through two levels in such a short span.
"You actually refined the Great Yi True Spirit Pill and the Ancient Earthcore Dragon in such a short time! How did you accomplish it?" Tian Can floated over and circled Liu Wuxie, sensing great yi energy and dragon aura flowing within his body.
The sheer sight felt unbelievable and shattered everything they believed they knew. They even began to suspect the cultivation world had changed beyond their comprehension after a million years.
"Thank you, Seniors, for the treasures. I promise to undo your curses within ten years and restore your freedom," Liu Wuxie said. Since he had made a promise, he would naturally keep it.
Hearing Liu Wuxie's words, the three elders finally felt more at ease.
"I hope you will keep your word, and we will see you in ten years," Tian Can sighed.
"There's still something I don't understand. Did you three let a cultivator leave on purpose to tell everyone that someone could enter Death Mountain and still leave this place alive?" Liu Wuxie asked, the doubt still gnawing at him.
No one could enter Death Mountain and come out alive. According to what Luo Hai had said, someone had managed to leave Death Mountain alive a thousand years ago.
Liu Wuxie couldn't figure out the reason, and that could only mean the three elders had let that person go on purpose. But the three elders didn't have much time left, and tens of thousands of years had passed since anyone had come, so it made no sense to him why they would let that person leave.
