Haoyang Shrine is suspended in the sky, like a round of golden sun, shining brightly and shining all over the world.

The nine-story staircase hangs down from the shrine, one layer after another, like the ninefold heavens, does it mean that you have ascended the nine heavens?

Some people have thought about it this way, but they haven't thought about it deeply, because it doesn't matter anymore, what matters is who can get to the top first.

One by one, the young monks flew into the air, racing against time, and no one wanted to be left behind.

It's just that no matter who it is, once you enter the ladder, you will immediately fall into an inexplicable Dao realm, even the War Marquis, the Fire Jin Marquis and others are no exception.

Shanmen asked, it has been so many years, and he is still doing this. Leaving the fire sparrow to return to Linkong's side, he said with some dissatisfaction.

She worked hard to create time for Chu Hao to enter the ladder first, but she didn't expect that she just did useless work.

At this moment, Chu Hao, like everyone else, fell into the Dao realm, and the whole person seemed to be frozen, pausing on the first layer of the ladder.

This is the mountain gate Daowen, a test of the Taoist heart, and only those who have a firm heart of cultivation can pass guò.

In ancient times, all sects were very strict in accepting disciples, and they needed to go through various tests.

Chu Hao fell into the question, and failed to climb the nine-fold ladder one step ahead of others, which made Lihuo unhappy, and he felt that he was busy in vain.

"Even so, if you fall into the Tao earlier, you may wake up earlier, and you can also preempt others a lot. Lin Kong said.

"Look!" Away from the firesparrow was still dissatisfied.

At this moment, Chu Hao was deeply trapped in the Dao realm. A road appeared in front of him, extremely dark, and he couldn't see his fingers.

He walked slowly in the dark. I don't know how long I walked, but I didn't encounter anything except the road under my feet.

In fact, his true body had been stagnant on the first level of the ladder, never moving at all, and all the qiē was only transformed by the Dao heart.

"What kind of place is this?" Chu Hao's face was vigilant, and a fire spirit appeared behind him. The red-black flame burned quietly, the only light in the dark world.

"Moon Spirit, dead child. Where are you?" Chu Hao shouted, his voice spreading through the empty darkness, and there was no echo at all, as if he had been devoured by an ancient beast.

This damn place. I don't know how wide it is. It seems like the vastness is endless.

"Could it be the Shanmen Dao Question?" Chu Hao said to himself, he didn't know the specific situation of the Shanmen Dao Question, but he had experienced it.

When he first entered Sunset Valley, he also experienced a mountain gate question, when he was dragged into a deserted fire field.

It's just that the eyes are replaced by an endless dark world.

"I'm in trouble!" Chu Hao sighed, his eyes a little anxious.

The mountain gate asks to test the heart of the Dao, once it is deep. If it's fast, it can break the game in an instant, and if it's slow, sometimes it won't be able to wake up for a few years.

"How did I pass the test last time?" Chu Hao recalled in his mind the last time he walked out of the Fire Domain Illusion Realm.

Although the Fire Realm is just the simplest of questions. Almost everyone knows guò, but there is also a certain inspiration.

It's just that the last time he was able to get out of the illusion of Dao Wen, Chu Hao himself was also inexplicable, and it seemed that he walked out naturally after walking.

"Then let's go again!" Chu Hao's eyes were firm, just a small question, one of the necessary suzhì to worship the Great Sect in ancient times, how could he be stumped.

One step out, his eyes were firm, his steps were sonorous, and the fire spirit rose into the air behind him, like an imperial fire.

"It's moving!" shouted someone outside the stairs.

In the illusion, Chu Hao was determined, and he actually led the action of the ontology in reality and took a step forward.

He was just one step away from being able to reach the second ladder, far ahead of the others.

Those great clansmen's powerhouses were furious, and they couldn't help frowning, they didn't allow the inheritance of Haoyang Divine Palace to be obtained by Chu Hao.

It's just that the ladder is supported by divine power, and they can't break through it at all, and they can't affect everyone on the ladder.

"Hey, Huo Xuan has also moved!" Suddenly, someone shouted again.

No one could have imagined that the second person to move would be Huo Xuan, far surpassing the others and those young Taishang powerhouses.

After all, Chu Hao was able to take the lead because he entered the ladder ahead of schedule and accepted the Dao question test earlier than others.

It stands to reason that the second person who moves is either the Zhan Hou or the Huojin Hou, because their realm is higher, and their Dao heart should also be firmer.

Huo Xuan's steps were eye-catching, which meant that his Dao heart was among the top among those present.

"The Huoyun Clan has produced a good seedling!"

The firmness of the Dao heart, although it does not necessarily mean that it will definitely go further than others in the future, is also a powerful measure.

Generally speaking, a person with a strong enough Dao heart, even if his qualifications are poor, his future achievements will not be much worse.

What's more, Huo Xuan's talent is obvious to all, and he is definitely one of the pinnacle of the younger generation.

With such a talent and a firm Dao heart, if there is no accident, he will definitely be one of the few people who will be in charge of the ups and downs of Beichen in the future.

In the chariot of Sunset City, the Sunset City Lord smiled, with a relieved expression on his face, and was very satisfied with Huo Xuan's expression.

He is also sincerely proud of his son, the tiger father has no dog son, and Huo Xuan's talent is better than that of his father.

Subsequently, more and more people moved, and it was obvious that they had made enough progress in the Dao questioning, among which the Underworld, Jinpeng Kong, Phoenix Heavenly Maiden, etc. were the most amazing.

They all took steps after the fire announcement, and the gap was not too far, and the firmness of the Dao heart was arrogant.

As for the war marquis and the fire gold marquis, they are also up and down, and the two young Taishang are still evenly matched.

And Qingfeng and the others were originally eye-catching enough, but they fell into the Taoist questioning, failed to improve, and lagged behind others a lot.

"What's the matter, with their qualifications and cultivation, it won't be so bad as the Dao Heart, right?" someone wondered.

In the Sunset Valley, the expressions of Qingfeng and others are also remarkable, and they belong to the forefront of the younger generation.

However, at this moment, many people who are inferior to them have gone further than them, one step ahead of them.

"The ancient Dao asked, and the conscience also asked, it's not that they are not firm in their Dao hearts, it should be that they happen to be confused, right?" someone tentatively explained.

Although it is impossible to give an exact measure of the firmness of the Dao heart, it can also be seen.

How could a Tianjiao figure like Qingfeng not have a firm Dao heart, if the Dao heart was not stable, it would be impossible for them to have the current achievements.

"Also, the Dao heart is only one factor in the process of cultivation, not the whole story, and sometimes the more firm the Dao heart, the more paranoid and astray it becomes. Others said so.

Of course, these words were said by people who were close to the Dragon Bird Clan and other clans, which made the Taishang of the Dragon Bird Clan look a little pale.

In fact, Qingfeng and the others' cousins would not have been so unbearable in the first place, but they were just fighting in the Yan Valley and were hit harder.

During the siege of the Phoenix Heavenly Maiden, Huo Xuan's words shocked Qingfeng very much, he wanted to get out of the shackles of the phoenix technique, and Qingfeng wanted to turn into a phoenix.

Two different paths, two different wills, made Qingfeng a little confused for a while, so he was trapped in the middle of the question.

And some of the rest of the people, some of them are known as geniuses because they usually respond to them in their own sects.

In the Valley of the Sunset, the collision of geniuses has worn out the brilliance on them, making them lose their former confidence.

Therefore, they are bound, they are questioned by faith, and they are struggling and unwilling in their hearts.

However, everyone is a Tianjiao figure, and they were just a little shocked for a while, but they quickly calmed down, and after a while, Qingfeng had already taken a small step, on par with everyone.

"It doesn't matter if you gain or lose for a while, what matters is whether you can understand your own way from it later. The old Taoist of the Fire Raven Clan said.

This Taishang has lived long enough, and his strength is unfathomable, and his words are naturally thought-provoking.

Although the pace of the people on the ladder is fast and slow, and the Dao heart is firm and weak, it is only temporary.

It is an opportunity for them to enter the Tao today, and if they can use it to see their own shortcomings and make up for them, their achievements in the future are also limitless.

It can be said that a Taoist question is a baptism of the heart and a comprehensive dialysis of the self.

"It's a pity that there is an age limit, otherwise I would have wanted to go in and ask myself. The Taishang powerhouse of the Jinpeng clan sighed lightly, with some regrets.

The Taoist question of the mountain gate was only available in ancient times, and this kind of torture of the Taoist heart was lost with the fall of antiquity.

Nowadays, even the top Great Sect may have a way to test the Dao Heart, but it is definitely not comparable to the Dao Question of the ancients.

"Hey, what's wrong with them, why are they so ugly?" As time passed, slowly, there was a change on the stairs.

Seeing that they were about to go further, one by one as if they had been immobilized by a spell, their faces showed ugly expressions, and they were even a little anxious.

In the illusion, Chu Hao walked forward step by step, but he didn't know how long, a year, ten years, or a hundred years, and he still couldn't see anything else.

Dark.

Dark.

It's still dark.

It seems that there is nothing in this fantasy world except for the endless darkness.

It's dark, it's dark, there's no end to it, how can you go here, you can't get out at all.

Chu Hao was a little depressed, his mood was involuntarily irritable, no matter who repeated the non-stop walking, but he couldn't see any hope, and he would be impatient.

Life has an end, and darkness has no end, along the way, Chu Hao even wondered if he had spent his whole life on this futile thing.

At this moment, not only Chu Hao, but everyone on the ladder had doubts about themselves in their hearts.

It's not that they don't have a firm path, but that they have persisted for too long, to the point where they can't hold on. (To be continued......)
