The black mountain wasn't too tall and it was hidden behind two mountains. If one didn't look closely, one wouldn't notice it at all.
Even if one looked closely, one wouldn't notice it.
This black mountain didn't have many trees and it was totally bare. There wasn't any nice scenery and it wasn't tall. It didn't give off an aura that made it seem small, so even if one saw it, one wouldn't notice it.
Even if Li Xiandao saw this mountain, if he didn't know about Nether Purple Mountain, he would subconsciously ignore it.
This was how Nether Purple Mountain hid itself. It allowed it to stand stably for tens of thousands of years.
Now that Li Xiandao was here, it sensed the aura of the contract and knew what was going on. Nether Purple Mountain was direct and invited Li Xiandao to enter.
Li Xiandao entered.
If he didn't go, wouldn't it seem like Li Xiandao was a coward?
Within Nether Purple Mountain, there weren't any weird changes. It was just a mountain with a winding tunnel. At the core, there was a cave.
This cave was empty and there was no one around.
There was a tea table made of stone and a cup of tea that was half drunk. Who knew how long it had been here for but the tea was still giving off steam.
Li Xiandao looked around and noticed that in the corner, a few stones were stacked together and formed a human shape. It looked really unstable but it didn't notice it or maybe it wasn't worried at all. It walked over and said, "Who are you to the Bank of the Universe?"
"The Master of the Bank of the Universe!" Li Xiandao said calmly.
"Nonsense, you aren't the Master of the Bank of the Universe. The person I saw was stronger than you." The stone person raged.
Li Xiandao didn't deny it, "The person you are talking about was the Master of the Bank of the Universe but he has already disappeared from the world. I am the heir of his heir, the new Master of the Bank of the Universe."
The stone person kept silent and said, "During these long years, I have been waiting. He signed a contract with me and it said that I sold myself to him."
Li Xiandao corrected him, "I didn't sell myself to him, I sold myself to the Bank of the Universe."
"Your cultivation is so weak and you are only at stage eight and you want me to be your subordinate?" The stone person's tone was filled with disdain.
Li Xiandao didn't bother with him and said, "I think you don't have the right to talk about me now."
The stone person stared at Li Xiandao with an unfriendly gaze.
"You are Nether Purple Mountain, a treasure mountain in the Celestial World. Many people want to get you. You are really skilled but why did you stay in Heaven Sky for tens of thousands of years?" Li Xiandao asked.
The stone man snorted coldly. "I like it. What's it to you?"
Li Xiandao looked at the arrogant stone person and knew that it was faking it. Just as he guessed, Nether Purple Mountain was in trouble.
"You don't like it. You are just helpless." Li Xiandao pointed out the problem with Nether Purple Mountain.
The stone person frowned and asked, "What do you know? You are just randomly guessing?"
Li Xiandao sat down casually and looked at the half-drunk cup of tea, "You know whether or not I am guessing randomly. Do you know what I saw on the way here?"
The stone man frowned and asked, "What did you see?"
"There are dozens of Celestial tombs here. Do you know anything about them?" Li Xiandao asked.
The stone person crossed his arms and said calmly, "I have nothing to say."
Li Xiandao looked at him and squinted. If he wasn't confident in taking down Nether Purple Mountain's mountain spirit, he would have attacked long ago. His attitude was a little bad.
"Do you know?" Li Xiandao's lips curled up.
"What?" The stone person looked at Li Xiandao in confusion.
"After I found out that those tombs were related to you, I have been thinking. Since you can kill them in Heaven Sky, why don't you enter the Celestial World or search for the Bank of the Universe? Why do you want to stay here?" Li Xiandao asked.
The stone person said stubbornly, "Can't I like the environment here?"
"The flowers and grass here are so beautiful. The blue sky and white clouds are all so nice. Can't I miss this place??" The stone person asked.
"Of course, you can use whatever you say as an excuse. But in truth, you can't move." Li Xiandao said calmly.
The stone person stopped and sighed. He looked at Li Xiandao in deep thought and asked, "How do you know that I can't move?"
"There is no need to know. Just think about it and you will understand. Not only do I know that you can't move, but I also know that you can't move because you killed those dozens of Celestials. You can only stay here." Li Xiandao said.
"As for what flowers and grass you like, that is just an excuse. No matter how many flowers and grass there are, they don't grow on your bare body." Li Xiandao exposed the stone person's lies.
The stone person muttered, "My body is a purple crystal mine and it can't grow flowers and grass, which is why I like them."
Li Xiandao didn't bother about it and asked, "Now, tell me, what price did you pay to kill those dozens of Celestials? Why are you trapped here for 30,000 years?"
"Will you solve it if I tell you?" The stone person asked.
This meant that he admitted that Li Xiandao was right. As he killed those dozens of Celestials, he had no choice but to stay here for 30,000 years.
"If you don't tell me, then you won't be able to solve it. Moreover, I can see that your strength is slowly weakening. In just a short while, you will lose everything you have now." Li Xiandao didn't force him and said calmly.
These calm words struck Nether Purple Mountain's heart. He kept silent for a moment and said helplessly, "When I killed those dozens of Celestials, I was at my peak. Even if Heaven Sky has an upper limit, I can still kill them."
Li Xiandao listened on silently and didn't say a word. He controlled the conversation.
Since entering Nether Purple Mountain, Li Xiandao had been leading the conversation. He slowly brought Nether Purple Mountain's mountain spirit into his rhythm. The two of them were speaking equally but now it became Li Xiandao asking and Nether Purple Mountain replying.
Like a master and a servant.
Nether Purple Mountain didn't even notice. Unknowingly, its attitude towards Li Xiandao had changed and it was now replying to Li Xiandao's question.
"When I killed those dozens of Celestials, their combined strike injured my core." Nether Purple Mountain's mountain spirit said helplessly. His tone was filled with rage.
Without that, Li Xiandao wouldn't have been able to beat him.
He didn't need to respectfully reply to Li Xiandao's question.
"What method did they use to injure you?" Li Xiandao asked curiously.
"Decay of the angel!" Nether Purple Mountain's mountain spirit sighed and said in a depressed manner.
