Chapter 511: Snowy Mountain, Broken Stele
He had no idea how far they had run.
The wind lashed his face, carrying flakes of snow.
"Snow?"
Feeling the chill against his cheeks, Lian Youming focused his gaze ahead. Sure enough, snow filled the mountain valley before them.
He had paid attention earlier. He should have been heading west all along, gaining altitude, and had even seen some Tibetans along the way. Judging by the distance they had covered, they should have reached the far west.
"Mount Sumeru!"
The White Lotus Sect Master suddenly spoke, her eyes fixed on a towering, strangely shaped peak.
The peak had an unusual shape, resembling both a pyramid and a Buddhist stupa. Frost and snow crowned its summit, and it was the highest mountain in the surrounding area.
As far as the eye could see, undulating mountain ranges surrounded the peak like stars clustering around the moon. Its grandeur was a rare sight indeed.

Then she murmured another phrase in Sanskrit.
"Shiva's paradise!"
Strangely enough, Lian Youming actually understood what she meant.
Before this, he had known neither Tibetan nor Sanskrit. Yet now, as though understanding had suddenly dawned on him, his lips moved. He opened his mouth and actually uttered a phrase in Sanskrit himself.

That meant everything within those illusions of reincarnation
