Chapter 22: Lingyundu
Lu Jin wiped the sweat on his head and adjusted his breathing, but the speed under his feet remained the same.
No longer looking left and right, Lu Jin lowered his head and counted the steps forward, if she couldn't even pass this first level, what kind of immortal would she cultivate, what kind of Tao did she practice.
Two thousand, five thousand, three thousand, four thousand, five thousand......
Lu Jin felt that his body had never been so heavy, as if it weighed a thousand catties.
The shoes on the soles of the feet are still not worn out because of the magic weapons, but the pain in the feet is real.
She didn't dare to stop, because she was afraid that if she slacked off, she would never be able to walk again.
Lu Jin didn't believe in herself, she didn't believe in human inertia, she felt that once she stopped to rest once, there would be a second and third time, and until the time was up, she would not be able to finish.
The surrounding sky was already dark, the sky was full of stars, the moon was extraordinarily large, and Lu Jin was still moving forward step by step.
Under the moonlight, where Lu Jin walked by, there was already a trace of blood, and the white skirt blocked Lu Jin's feet, this dress was still the one given to her by Yue Qianling, because it was from the Shengxian Gate, Lu Jin could wear the clothes she liked, so she changed into this white dress.
This dress is also a magic weapon, so the bloodstains, dust, etc. can't be contaminated, but in fact, Lu Jin's feet have been worn out blood.
There was no one in front of him, and there was no one in the hundreds of steps behind Lu Jin.
Because the people in front had stopped and were overtaken by Lu Jin, and no one in the back could insist on walking like Lu Jin.
Seven thousand, eight thousand, nine thousand......
Lu Jin's speed became slower and slower, but the light in his eyes was brighter than ever.
She was used to the heaviness of her body, and it should be said that she was numb to the pain in her feet and the weight on her body, and once she accepted this, the road ahead was much easier.
The ladder in front of her gradually changed, and in Lu Jin's eyes, it was no longer an immutable step, the road ahead was full of flowers, the phoenix birds were singing, and the blood under her feet turned into golden lotus.
Of course, this is just Lu Jin's imagination, if you don't find joy in suffering, this will be even more difficult.
I don't know how long it took, Lu Jin counted 12,000 steps.
Lu Jin struggled forward, and he was about to arrive, his feet were like stepping on the clouds, and he couldn't lift a trace of strength.
The day will break.
"Take a break, there are nine hundred and ninety steps left. ”
A voice appeared in Lu Jin's mind, the voice couldn't distinguish between men and women, but it was unusually gentle, and the voice persuaded her to stop.
Lu Jin bit her lip to keep herself clear, she ignored the voice, her eyes were as bright as the newly rising sun, and she only had the way forward in her eyes.
Because her legs no longer had strength, she raised her legs and took a step, her legs staggered, and Lu Jin fell, but she ignored it, struggled to get up, and continued to walk.
Every few steps she would fall, and in the end Lu Jin couldn't stand up anymore, she grabbed the steps in front of her with her hands, moving forward little by little, although her legs couldn't walk, but Lu Jin smiled.
Because, at the last step, she arrived, and she saw the most beautiful scene in the world.
The scene was so beautiful that it couldn't be described, this was what Lu Jin was asking for, but what it was, Lu Jin didn't know.
Maybe it was the realm of the other side and the realm of bliss in Lu Jin's heart.
There are thousands of monks, and the red dust world is struggling, but in order to transcend that day, Lu Jin doesn't know what kind of world she sees, but if she really has the opportunity to get such a beautiful world in the future, even if the road ahead is difficult, she must persevere.
Cultivation is the boat, and the world in which people live is the starting point, and the monk is equivalent to getting on the boat from the ferry and sailing in the boundless sea of suffering to find the world on the other side.
"Idiot. One person sighed.
Lu Jin raised his head and looked for prestige, it was a young woman, and her appearance could not be described as beautiful or ugly, because this woman gave Lu Jin a feeling of beauty that was beyond her appearance and body.
"Are you an immortal?" Lu Jin asked stupidly, this might be the first time she had made a fool since she cultivated.
There are many reasons, the most important is that she just came out of the road to heaven, and when she saw that scene again, her mind was in chaos at this time.
Just now, with an obsession in her heart, she came here in one go, but in fact, her head was not sober for a long time.
The woman was a little stunned, but then with a wave of her hand, Lu Jin felt that the discomfort on her body had disappeared, and her spiritual power had recovered.
Rarely, Lu Jin's face was slightly red, and since she had cultivated, she had never lost her temper like this again.
Whether it is enchanting or gentle, it is just to bring a mask to herself, that is Yue Qianling is Mu Qing, but not her Lu Jin.
If there were no memories of Yue Qianling, Lu Jin would still be Lu Jin, who left home at the age of ten and was trapped in the mountains for fifteen years, and she would not have had the opportunity to be herself.
At this time, he will feel embarrassed, which is the emotion that Lu Jin has not hidden.
Look at the surrounding sea of clouds again, although there is a ground under the feet but are covered by clouds and mist, there is a wooden platform not far away, there is a wooden boat not far from the platform, it seems to be a ferry.
However, what surprised Lu Jin the most was that he was in the middle of building a foundation.
The woman looked at Lu Jin lightly, and saw that she gradually calmed down, so she spoke: "This Mu Ze, I heard that kid Gu Yuchen said that you are Mu Chen's granddaughter, but there is evidence." ”
Mu Chen is the missing elder, and Mu Canglin is Mu Chen's son.
Mu Canglin's qualifications are not good, and Lu Jin doesn't know how to behave, but judging from the information, in order to resist the marriage that Mu Chen prepared for him, he left the Yuansheng Immortal Gate and ran away, Lu Jin felt that he might have been protected by Mu Chen too well, and he didn't know the sinister outside.
Although he thought so, Lu Jin still took out a token, a wooden hairpin, a magic weapon, and an identity jade plate.
The woman took it, looked at it carefully, sighed after a while, and returned the thing to Lu Jin: "The thing is fine, your name is Mu Qing, right?" ”
The only one who can claim to be the deity is the elder of the Yuan Infant Stage, this woman calls herself Mu Ze, Gu Yuchen said that this introductory trial was presided over by Elder Mu Ze, Lu Jin knew her identity, took the things, bowed down and said: "Junior Mu Qing has seen the elder." ”
"I see that your qualifications are good, and you have just performed very well in the Ascending Heaven Road, so you don't need to try Lingyundu in the middle, if you can pass the state of mind, you can directly enter and become my disciple." Mu Ze said very simply, this huge surprise made Lu Jin not know how to express it for a while.
Lu Jin bowed deeply again and said, "The junior will definitely not let the elder down. ”
Mu Zeken accepted her as an apprentice, which may be due to her qualifications and perseverance, but she felt that the biggest reason was probably the relationship between Mu Qing's grandfather Mu Chen.
Mu Ze nodded, and with a wave of his big sleeves, an oval hole appeared ten steps in front of Lu Jin, and it was pitch black in the hollow, more than one person high.
Lu Jin walked in without hesitation.
Mu Ze looked at Lu Jin's back, and a smile leaked from his indifferent face.
In fact, Lu Jin's thinking is not bad, if Lu Jin's identity is not Mu Chen's granddaughter, her performance on the Ascending Road will not be noticed by Mu Ze, and even if she does, she will not observe Lu Jin's performance all the way and test it.
The voice that Lu Jin heard on the road persuading her to stop was Mu Ze's temptation.
As Gu Yuchen said, Mu Ze is a decent person and pays attention to the Dao heart, so Mu Ze has only accepted one apprentice so far, and she can accept the apprentice, which shows that Lu Jin's Dao heart is firm.
In fact, although the road to heaven seems to be harsh, but it can be artificially controlled, there are many cases that cannot be completed, and there are very few who can be completed, but every sect has to accept apprentices, if a road to heaven blocks most of them, then the source immortal gate has already ended.
Therefore, it is a gimmick to walk through, let the monks who want to enter the door work hard, and the number of steps passed depends on the mood of the elder who presided over at that time, and generally within two days to more than eight thousand or nine thousand, it is considered to be firm in the heart of the Dao.
Mu Ze is stricter, he wants 9,000 upwards, but like Lu Jin, who doesn't stop for a moment, and comes to the end of a day and a night, Mu Ze has only seen Lu Jin alone for many years.
Even when she walked this road to heaven, she stopped for a period of time and walked it in two days.
And if you finish it within the specified time, there will be a period of illusion at the end, and everyone will see it differently, and it will more or less improve your cultivation and strengthen your Dao heart.
