The National Cultural Heritage Administration has authenticated a rock inscription dated to 210 BCE found at 4,300 metres (14,000 ft) near Gyaring Lake deep in the Tibetan Plateau, which records that Emperor Qin Shi Huang sent “level five grand master Yi” and a group of alchemists to collect yao, which could be interpreted as ‘the elixir of life’, or the source of immortality.
What do you think?
“Does anyone have a full walkthrough for this quest chain?”
“Walter Donovan wanted immortality and look what happened to him. I’ll stick to green tea and fried dumplings, thanks.”
“The results of that expedition are classified.”
