Internal Strife

"It stopped working..." grumbled the old willow.

"Have you tried to restart it?" helped the mountain.

The heavenly artifact flashed white lights as its malfunction spread to the surrounding servant artifacts. It was an artifact core, only legends existing of it, which was now being toyed with by a senile willow.

"Thats what i call cultivation stagnation. Maybe it is attempting a break through?" the plant based geezer guessed.

The mountains look accurately depicted its non existent head shaking, being visibly in pain from an extreme amount of stupidity "Its probably an ancient secret strengthening technique, to piss excellency one must first piss pain, or in the artifacts case white light.".

"Either way, it's some kind of stagnation. The old turtle fortold that one day the ancient pagoda will open its doors and cultivators from all over the world will be able to enter it an try to cultivate using its abundant amount of spiritual resources." the willow responded.

"Impossible could it be the seven heavenly clans clan treasure? No way there is no way, its a heavenly class demon intent 5 star acomplishment to enter it, no one has ever done it in the last one hundred millennia, maybe he wants to ..." the mountain trailed off.

"After his continous attempts to reach a higher level, to become a peak existence, maybe he was able to breach his bottleneck, the middle divine realm which bound him to the living."

"Demon level heavenly defying genius Tinspire, one name to shake the heavens" the rock joked.

"What the f*ck are you two codgers talking about?" a passing raven ranted.

"Shut your trap." both elders admonished the poor bird instantly.
