Chapter 134 One Step to Heaven
Chapter 134 One Step to Heaven
Lu Qingyun shook his head.
A touch of nostalgia involuntarily surfaced in his eyes.
Who could not remember them?
It has been decades since Chen Xiru left without saying goodbye and there has been no news of her since.
His suspicions ultimately became reality in this illusionary realm of inner demons.
But...
"What good would it do to make it real?"
Even if there is much regret and disappointment.
Lu Qingyun still slashed out with his sword.
"What's the point of trying to stop a chariot with your bare hands, and dying alongside your junior sister? I have never felt guilty, so even if you conjure up a thousand inner demons, it will make no difference to me."
Chen Xiru's illusion vanished instantly.
She said venomously, "Lu Qingyun, how cruel you are! I curse you to be cut off from your cultivation and come down to join me!"
Lu Qingyun remained calm as he watched the scene before him return to reality, transforming back into the towering mountain.
"This mountain climb can be considered a preview of this inner demon tribulation."
Lu Qingyun stepped forward, pondering.
To break through the Foundation Establishment stage, one must cultivate supernatural powers, refine spiritual materials, and overcome the tribulations of the heart.
The so-called mental tribulation is exactly the same mental demon tribulation as what is right before our eyes.
The more one loses control of their mind, the stronger their inner demons become.
but.
With the records of his past lives preserved, he can be even more certain of his past actions.
How could there be inner demons?
Even if there is some regret, how strong can the inner demons become?
However, at this moment, on this towering mountain, it could be destroyed with a wave of the hand.
In contrast, what worried Lu Qingyun more was whether his body could hold out until he reached the top of the towering mountain.
Lu Qingyun sighed.
Little did he know, on the mountaintop, the Eagle-like Taoist was even more astonished than he was.
Or perhaps it refers to the person behind the Eagle-like Taoist, the true master of the Green Wood Secret Realm, the current Green Wood Taoist.
He stood in the main hall, and dozens of scenes of the Wanren Mountain appeared in the bronze mirror.
The entire scene was conveyed through the eyes of the Eagle-like Taoist.
However, the astonishment Lu Qingyun brought him was even greater than that of Niu Gao and Mu Shan, who had higher cultivation levels.
Master Qingmu frowned and muttered:
"Even the demon cub who inherited the true teachings of the Supreme Dao has never had such a temperament. I originally thought that the elderly swordsman from the Cloud Mist Sect who entered my pot and this demonic cultivator were the most suitable vessels."
"But now it seems that this young man who is practicing my techniques is even stronger in character than I was back then."
"That inner demon tribulation seems to have no effect on him at all, yet I haven't found any treasures or traces of any Dao lineage on him. In other words, he has reached this level solely through his own willpower?"
Holding this almost unbelievable conjecture, Daoist Aoki fell into deep thought.
After a long while, he seemed to have made a decision.
"This is almost my last chance. The great era I foresaw has arrived, and it is also the time for my lineage to be born."
"This child was originally a resource I had planned for. Whether it was used for possession or as a means to restore my magical power, it was going to be used eventually."
Looking at Lu Qingyun on Mount Wanren in the bronze mirror, Daoist Qingmu felt a slight pang of regret.
"If you had been able to climb to the summit of this towering mountain hundreds of years ago, I would have granted you a lineage of Dao because of your similar temperament to mine, and even removed the influence of the longevity magic within you."
"But now, it's simply the wrong time."
Master Qingmu sighed, seemingly lamenting Lu Qingyun's unfortunate fate.
They are still lamenting their past selves.
In the mirror.
Lu Qingyun naturally didn't have that many thoughts.
After shattering Chen Xiru's illusion, the towering mountain conjured up Zhao Qingxuan from the Zhao family and Zhang Tianlie from the Zhang family, appearing before him.
But it was just like the illusion Chen Xiru had just experienced.
He only used one sword.
In order to reach the summit before his body collapsed, he even increased his climbing speed considerably.
Although you can probably try again if you die in this level.
But since we must seize the opportunity, we must do our best within an hour!
Little did he know, the Taoist Qingmu, watching his actions, sighed again.
"I deliberately set a trap in the first stage, causing these cultivators to die and then come back to life. This was to make them die on this illusory mountain, so as to weaken their souls and make them easier to use as resources later."
"I never imagined this young man would be so decisive, ascending to heaven in one step on this towering mountain!"
