Li Daqing's expression changed drastically when he saw this. He quickly looked at Chen Ying and asked, "Brother, what's going on?"
Chen Ying was not surprised and said slowly: "Those who seek the Tao, the destiny is in front of them. They have to pass the test of heart-searching. To put it bluntly, they have to withstand the torture of the sky stone. The longer the time, the more pressure they bear. Strong, but once you can't bear it, you will work in vain and gain nothing. The second is that your mind will be hurt, your Tao heart will be frustrated, and you will no longer be connected with the Tao. The path of cultivation will face more difficulties and obstacles, and it is not impossible that your realm will stagnate from now on. .”
Li Daqing opened his mouth wide, shook it a few times, and said in shock: "Wu Shi is still so dangerous!?"
Chen Ying heard the words and said with a smile: "You don't have to be afraid. Tianshi torture, as long as you face it honestly, no matter how bad it is, there will be a little bit of gift, more or less, just retreat when you can't bear it, and then follow the instructions Daoji will guide you, find your place, and do what you can. As long as you don't pretend to understand, are unrepentant, or even try to be clever in front of Daoji, or be led by greed, you will be fine."
As he spoke, Chen Ying sneered and said with sarcasm, "How many people understand this?"
Li Daqing smiled bitterly and said: "Senior brother, what if everyone understands this? The road is ahead, who can resist that temptation?"
Chen Ying was silent and murmured: "The opportunities on the road are all illusory. Qiu Xian asked. Every step he takes is a different scene ahead. There will only be more difficulties and obstacles, but also more temptations. The older you get, the more you fear that you will miss out on opportunities if you take a step back, but you don’t understand the principle of taking a step back to open up the world. You think that taking a step forward means moving forward bravely, but you don’t understand that there are mountains of swords and seas of fire waiting for you. The road is full of temptations, and no one knows how to act according to their ability. , as we walk, there will be no turning back.”
These words seemed to be spoken to Li Daqing, but more like they were spoken to himself.
Seeing the greedy and adventurous people in front of them vomiting blood and retreating, they looked defeated and confused. They had no idea why they were pushed back. No matter how hard they tried, they could not take another step forward. .
If you retreat on the great road, it will be difficult to go back.
Li Daqing's thoughts are becoming more and more complicated. Everyone knows that if he quits, he will lose. Who is willing to quit?
He opened his mouth but hesitated to speak, but a question in his mind grew bigger and bigger. Why on earth did Chen Ying tell him this?
If he can't hold on by then, will he be refunded or not?
Chen Ying looked at him with a half-smile and said, "If I were you, I would retreat."
Li Daqing smiled bitterly, but remembered it.
A figure came from the bottom of the mountain. When it arrived, it didn't stay too much or hesitate at all. It walked directly past the crowd and walked up.
Li Daqing looked at that person, then at Chen Ying.
Chen Ying was about to step forward, but at this moment he stopped and said playfully: "Interesting, just to see where the person brought back by the elder will go."
…
…
There are many people on the peak. Some people sit on the middle line between the two sky stones to meditate. They are at different distances. Some people are either close to the sun stone or close to the moon stone. They are sitting here and there. There are also quite a few people. The people were not in a hurry to come forward, but gathered around and watched.
Xu Mushan ignored those people. She took a deep breath and moved forward step by step. Every time she took a step, she could feel a certain rhythm spreading to her body and entering the meridians in her body, causing all her energy to follow that rhythm. The rhythm of her breathing Gradually it changes, and even my thoughts rise and fall.
From the beginning, she walked on the middle line between the two stones.
She walked step by step without stopping, passing the watching disciples of the mountain sect one after another, and entered the rhythmic circle of the sky stone, where the pressure suddenly came.
Xu Mushan just paused, and then took a step forward. She surpassed Yang Xueer.
"you……"
Yang Xueer opened her mouth to speak, but her articulation was unclear and the rest of the words couldn't come out.
As if Xu Mushan hadn't seen her, she walked out again and stood with Zhu Ziling.
"Stop..."
Yang Xueer called, prayed, and cursed in her heart.
"Master...sister..."
Zhu Ziling wanted to smile, but under Tianshi's pressure, she showed a smile that was uglier than crying. It was difficult for her to even make a sound, which was unclear.
Xu Mushan narrowed her eyes and smiled, and said, "Senior Sister Zhu, I'll go over first."
Zhu Ziling nodded, but her pupils suddenly shrank. She noticed that Xu Mushan spoke smoothly and was not affected at all.
Xu Mushan moved forward and took another step.
Chen Bingbing turned to look at her, her eyes full of provocation.
Xu Mushan didn't stop and took another step forward.
Chen Bingbing bit her lip, and blood flowed from the corner of her lip. Her right foot was trembling and she was struggling. Her eyes were full of ruthlessness as she stared at Xu Mushan's back. No matter how she wanted to take this step - her first Three steps.
"I can't lose! I absolutely can't lose! Who is she? I can't lose!"
He kept chanting, shouting, and roaring in his heart, and a strong obsession made Chen Bingbing suddenly lift up his right foot and step out heavily.
"Unexpectedly..."
The Qingyang Sect disciples who witnessed this scene all showed shocked expressions. They were really shocked. They didn't expect that those who had stopped could actually take another step forward. For a moment, those who felt that they had reached their limit suddenly started to move again. Hope was born, and he was ready to take action.
Chen Ying was also startled, then touched his chin and murmured: "It's a bit interesting."
Chen Bingbing's mouth was bleeding. She had already taken out her right foot. This made her feel happy. She concentrated all her strength on her right foot and tried to drag her left foot up.
She was panting as her left foot was dragged up with difficulty. She just stood still and looked at Xu Mushan, only to see that Xu Mushan took another step forward after pausing for a while.
"What!?"
"How far can she go?"
"It's already the fifth step!"
There were bursts of exclamations outside, but there was no way for those voices to pass in. In the rhythmic circle of Tianshi, being tortured by the Taoist sound, step by step, unless they were standing together, even if they were only one step away, the two were separated. It is still like heaven and earth, no matter how hysterical the people behind are, the people in front cannot hear it.
"I can't lose!"
Chen Bingbing was full of unwillingness and anger. She focused on her right foot again, trying to take another step forward, but her right foot did not move at all.
"Catch up! I want to catch up!"
Chen Bingbing was unwilling to give up no matter what. Xu Mushan stood in front of her, one step away. It was just a small step, but it seemed to step hard on her heart. Then she watched Xu Mushan stand up slowly on her tiptoes. The feet seemed to be ready to take another step forward.
"no!!"
Chen Bingbing wanted to scream, but she clenched her teeth tightly and couldn't make any sound.
"I don't want to lose to you! I just don't want to lose to you! Who do you think you are! Who do you think you do!!"
Suddenly, she didn't know where the strength came from, and Chen Bingbing stood on tiptoe with her right foot.
Although she was just standing on tiptoes, the Taoist charm around her was enhanced. Something seemed to be calling her from the bottom of her heart, but she couldn't hear the voice. She only wanted to catch up with Xu Mushan.
Chen Bingbing stepped hard on the ground with the toes of her right foot and raised her heel. It looked like she might lift it up and step on it at any time.
At this moment, Xu Mushan stepped forward and took another step.
That was her sixth step, two steps away from where Chen Bingbing was.
"Two more steps to pursue!!"
Chen Bingbing gritted her teeth and continued to exert force, thinking that she must catch up with these two steps, no matter what, she must catch up.
Xu Mushan took the seventh step.
Chen Bingbing's heart trembled, but she still gritted her teeth firmly and said: "There are...three more steps!!"
Her heels have almost been completely raised, and the Tao Yun around her is getting stronger and stronger. It seems that she has reached a certain limit, and is about to break through. Even the Tao Yun born in heaven and earth is cheering for her. Encouragement.
Xu Mushan took the eighth step.
Chen Bingbing felt a burst of sadness and hesitation in her heart, her feet were trembling, and she trembled: "Four...four steps!?"
Xu Mushan took the ninth step at this time.
Chen Bingbing immediately lowered her head and stopped looking at Xu Mushan.
She was disheartened and slowly lowered her right heel. For a moment, the Tao Yun around her faded away, and the helplessness and sadness that surged up made her eyes well up with tears.
"Five steps...can't catch up..."
