The Undying Emperor—legend said he had almost surpassed the gods. Even the ancient races were unsure if he had ever truly existed, testifying to his fantastical nature.
Could the Undying Mountain truly have been manifested by him? That seemed unlikely, as he had already passed away early in the Ancient Times, making it impossible for him to have lived into later eras.
Immortals are elusive and ephemeral. Even the ancient emperors could not achieve everlasting life; they too had times when they would pass away in meditation. The monkey's old father was such an example; having lived through endless ages, he was frighteningly ancient, yet he too was unable to achieve eternal life.
The Undying Taoist… Ye Fan thought of the Undying Taoist on the Holy Cliff.
That sheer cliff had been severed from the Undying Mountain. The death of the Great Success Holy Body was likely related to it, and it was later suppressed by the Unbegun Great Emperor using the Investiture of the Gods.
