Chu Ziheng felt an unprecedented abundance and vitality, exuding a dragon-like spirit all over his body, and all the fatigue was swept away.

He lowered his head and silently held the pocket watch on his chest. After starting it, it felt a little cold, and although the nine kinds of immortal materials mixed together were not large, they weighed dozens of catties, as if they were from the ancient sense of antiquity and the vicissitudes of life.

"Is this forty-nine-mile trial considered to be passed?" He looked up at the snow-capped mountains towering into the clouds in front of him and said to himself.

Without the pressure of terror, the journey became easy. After all, the holy mountain is also within this small world, and this small world is only a few hundred miles away, so the road is not too far.

After being baptized by the pure life energy brought by the holy mountain, Chu Ziheng felt that he was alive and vigorous, and strode forward, and walked to the foot of the holy mountain in half a day.

When I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I only felt that this holy mountain was becoming more and more majestic, as if it was a pillar of optimus standing here, above the sky, and down to the nine secluded places. The snow and ice covering the peaks are pure and reflect the light of the sun and stars in the sky

Looking through the layers of clouds and mist, on the mountainside of the holy mountain, there are many dilapidated magnificent monuments, and magnificent palaces stand one after another. Maybe it's because it's been too long and it's all collapsed.

Chu Ziheng didn't stop, and when he came here, he directly began to climb towards the top, wanting to reach the top in one go.

On the holy mountain, covered in silver. Whether it was deep snow or icy cold wind, it didn't really have any effect on the cultivators, and it didn't seem difficult to climb to the top.

But Chu Ziheng understood that this time the test would definitely not be so simple, because Old Man Ye had told him that the first layer of the Holy Mountain Trial would test the cultivator's Dao Heart!

What is the Heart of the Dao?

The heart of the Tao can also be called the "mind of the Dao Law". According to Confucianism, the Taoist heart refers to the innate benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faithfulness of human beings. But if according to Taoist thought, "Dao" represents the laws of the world, and the so-called "Dao heart" is the heart that pursues the laws of the world.

In fact, this kind of Dao heart may not only be used on cultivators. If you are a ninja, then your Dao heart is called "Ninja Dao"; If you are a soldier, your Dao heart is "the sense of faith in your heart."

Cultivators who stick to the Dao heart may not have great achievements, but those who have great achievements must be extremely resolute in the Dao heart.

After climbing a few hundred meters, Chu Ziheng stepped into the thick clouds and mist in the mountains, and he actually felt that the divine power in his body was gradually dissipating, and his cultivation was weakened into a mortal.

Fortunately, this holy mountain is not too steep, even the physique of a mortal can be climbed, let alone with Chu Ziheng's physique. But what made him frown was that he felt a strange power gradually diffuse and begin to invade his mind.

That's right, not the body, not the mind, but the mind.

With the invasion of this strange power, the more he climbed up, the more drowsy his mind became, and the more his consciousness became more and more scattered. At some point, his mind gradually descended into an abyss, surrounded by nothingness, and everything fell into endless darkness.

Although his consciousness was gone, his physical body was still climbing towards the top of the mountain step by step, and the speed was no different from before.

His mind kept falling in the abyss, and after I don't know how long, he seemed to see the light, first a faint light, then more and more dazzling, and finally his whole person merged into the light in front of him.

…………

"Great, it's a boy!" In his confusion, he heard a man's excited voice.

Chu Ziheng tried to move, but he felt that his limbs were very uncoordinated and very weak, he looked at the few giants walking around him, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock.

But soon he realized that these people were not giants, but that he himself was too small, and that he was now a baby, a little baby in swaddling clothes.

He just thought about it for a while, and then he felt extremely tired, and gradually immersed himself in a sweet dream.

As the baby grew up, Chu Ziheng understood that he should have fallen into an illusion, which should be the test of the first layer of the Holy Mountain, but what does this have to do with Dao Heart?

In this life, his name is Xiao Shushui, and he was born in the ruling territory of the Great Xia Dynasty in Beidou Zhongzhou. The Xiao family had an extraordinary status in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the head of the Xiao family held the position of Taishi in the imperial court, commanding an army of hundreds of thousands of cultivators.

The Great Xia Dynasty was actually also a sect of cultivation, or another form of sect. Unlike ordinary holy places and families, he established a state of practitioners in a centralized form. Compared to ordinary sects, it has a much wider territory and a larger number of cultivators.

You must know that the area of Zhongzhou is much larger than that of the Eastern Wilderness, but there are only four major dynasties, which occupy most of the territory of Zhongzhou, which shows how terrifying their strength and heritage are.

Xiao Shushui is gifted, and he was born with the body of the god of war that only existed in the legends of the Great Xia Dynasty. On the fourth day of cultivation, he successfully dissolved the sea of suffering, and then he ascended to the secret realm of the Taoist palace in only three years, and the whole country was shocked, and the emperor of Great Xia issued an order to recruit Xiao Shushui, who was only six years old, into the palace and personally taught him the "Emperor Sutra".

"The Book of the Emperor", on the power of attack, is comparable to the secret of the word "fight" among the nine secrets, and it is born to fit the body of the god of war of Xiao Shuishui. After he cultivated the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi, the speed of his advancement was even more amazing, in just two years, he opened the five gods of the Dao Palace Secret Realm, and broke through the Four Extremes Secret Realm at the age of eight, which was an extremely rare genius in the entire Beidou.

Xiao Shushui is famous, known as the reincarnation of the emperor by the world's cultivators, and is invincible to the younger generation in Zhongzhou.

At the age of ten, he entered the Zhongzhou Qishi Mansion, and with the strength of the peak of the Four Extremes Secret Realm, he fought against a famous man of the Northern Plains Golden Family, who turned into a dragon and the fourth transformation, and killed him, which shocked the world again, and was quite the young capital of the ancient emperor.

At the age of twelve, Xiao Shushui broke into the secret realm of turning into a dragon and became the leader of the younger generation of Qishi Mansion, and his strength realm was close to that of the older generation.

When Xiao passed away and turned into a dragon for the sixth time, the assassination attempt of the five killers of the peak of the dragon in the human world was attempted, and he killed them one by one, and in the end, only one killer escaped with serious injuries, and it is rumored that he died of illness in the temple of the human world a few months later.

The human world triggered the vision of heaven and earth, and the sky was covered with snow, and a nirvana order was issued against Xiao Weishui, the body of the god of war. And Xiao Shushui was not afraid, and even bombarded an old killer of a half-step power level in the world to death during a catastrophe.

People understand that Xiao Shushui has become an existence that they can't easily touch, this is a living young emperor!

Thousands of years ago, there was the "Middle Emperor" Xiang Yufei's nineteen-year-old Sendai second-order power, and now there is the "Middle Emperor" Xiao Yushui's sixteen-year-old Sendai first-order half-step power, which is not weak!
