The mountain was steep and perilous, its bizarre rocks jagged and rugged.
Su Yi had long noticed that the entire Hongmeng Dao Mountain, from top to bottom, was forged from Chaos Heaven-Sealing Stone, suffused with the dense aura of Chaos Origin.
In the outside world, any random piece of it would be enough to trigger a scramble among Founders.
Yet on Hongmeng Dao Mountain, it was everywhere.
No wonder this mountain had stood tall since the era of Innate Chaos. Throughout the ages, only a scant handful had truly been able to climb it.

"If Fate Officials are the rulers of the River of Destiny, then the Ferryman, as a mountain god, is the master of this Hongmeng Dao Mountain."

"She is the mountain god of Hongmeng Dao Mountain. Doesn't that mean that here...?"
