Chapter 186: Heart Refining

Liu Muqing only felt that his bones seemed to be crushed at this moment, and the weight of millions of catties was blessed on his body, as if he was carrying a high mountain, he was like the Monkey King who was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain and couldn't move.

Sweat fell from his cheeks drop by drop, and at this moment he profoundly expressed the meaning of the idiom sweating like rain.

Liu Muqing raised his head with difficulty, looked at the small steps in front of him, and tried to take a step, but the strange thing was that his feet seemed to be frozen, and he still stood in place without a trace.

"No...... No more...... You really can't do it anymore...... Let's take a break...... You can't step on this road to the immortals......"

An ethereal voice sounded in Liu Muqing's ears, as if it sounded from the bottom of his own heart and as if someone was whispering in his ear, making him involuntarily relax his tense body, but at this moment, the unimaginable weight pressed on his body again, making him lose his center of gravity, and his body involuntarily fell backwards.

"No!"

Liu Muqing suddenly woke up, and the mental method of luck "Tianwang Town Tower Decision" urged his own fire vajra body to the extreme, and the golden Buddha fire burned fiercely, gradually like a golden lotus.

I saw that his feet were sharply parted, and he took a special horse step, and with a mistake of his hands, golden light flew out of it, and landed on the steps in front of him, as if he wanted to break through the steps and grasp them.

However, how could the Dengxian Road be destroyed so easily, those powerful golden lights hit the jade steps, and dissipated without even a trace of dust, as if it had never existed at all.

Liu Muqing couldn't help but be anxious in his heart, now his center of gravity was unbalanced, even if he stepped down and stepped down, he couldn't stop the danger of his imminent fall, he turned his head and glanced below, and saw countless steps stretching down, and there was no end in sight.

Liu Muqing understands that if he really falls, then it will indicate that he has failed, and he is not even qualified.

"Lao Tzu will never just admit defeat!"

I only heard Liu Muqing's loud shout, and he opened his mouth to spit out a small folding fan, which became larger in the wind as soon as it appeared, and only stopped when it became the size of an ordinary folding fan, only to see him grasp the handle of the fan and wave it downward.

I saw that the white jade-like folding fan waved down hard, and in an instant, a strong wind condensed from under the fan, this wind was very powerful, and the cyan wind blade was countless in it, and the whistling sound was endless.

The wind urged the ground, and a powerful rebound force couldn't help but come from the steps, Liu Muqing regained control of his body's balance with this rebound force, and then stepped forward under his feet, and instantly climbed the 100,000th step.

The next moment, Liu Muqing only felt a light body, "plop!" and fell on the steps.

It turned out that the 100,000th step did not add weight, on the contrary, when Liu Muqing stood on it, there was no weight on his body, and the heavy weight that was as heavy as a mountain dissipated in an instant, as if it had never existed at all.

"Tennoji Temple, desire, qualified, do you want to continue to climb the path of ascending immortals?"

A faint voice suddenly sounded from all directions, although it was not so mechanical, but it did not carry the slightest emotion, as if these things in front of him were as small as ants in his eyes.

Liu Muqing looked at the countless steps above, and couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart, before he stepped on the 100,000th steps, the weight he was bearing had exceeded his own limit, if he went up again at this moment, then how huge should this weight be.

"Do you want to continue?" the voice urged.

Liu Muqing pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath, nodded abruptly into the sky, and said, "Go on!"

As these two words were spoken, the cloud-obscured steps gradually became clearer, and even the other monks on it could be faintly seen.

Looking at the figures above, Liu Muqing settled down, raised his foot and stepped out in one step, stepping on the one hundred thousand and one steps.

"Hum~"

Liu Muqing was already ready to be under heavy pressure, but as soon as he stepped on, he saw a flash of light in front of him, and several female cultivators in revealing clothes slowly walked towards him, each of them was extremely beautiful, and before he could reach him, all the clothes on these female cultivators disappeared, and a carmine white jade-like body appeared in front of him.

"Boom!"

The golden Buddha fire burned violently, and in an instant, these extremely beautiful female cultivators were burned clean, just like the picture scroll that was thrown into the fire, turning into a cloud of ashes.

After the nun completely disappeared, the picture of Dengxian Road appeared in front of Liu Muqing's eyes again, and he looked at the sky in a daze, and he couldn't react for a while.

All of this happened in a very short period of time, and that wonderful illusion was instantly broken before its power could be fully unfolded, and it was no wonder that Liu Muqing was stunned.

He looked around blankly, scratched his head, and thought to himself: "Could it be that this Ascending Immortal Road has changed since the 100,000th Steps?

In fact, Liu Muqing's conjecture is not wrong, this path to ascending to the immortal is divided into several stages, and the aspects of the monks who are tested at each stage are also different, but each stage is very strict. For example, before the 100,000 steps, although it was only a test of gravity, it also included a test of endurance, heart, physical strength of the monk, the ability to adapt to emergencies, etc., and even the courage of the monks was tested in Zuihou to see if they had the courage to climb the peak again, and whether they would be frightened by this dangerous road.

After thinking about this, Liu Muqing couldn't help but feel relieved, although he minored in the way of body refining, but he was not very proficient, what he was really proficient in was the way of double cultivation, and he still had some confidence in this illusion, especially he still had the Buddha fire in his hand, and cracking the ordinary illusion was a piece of cake.

Then, a strange phenomenon appeared in the huge Yuan Hao mirror, a small figure rushed up the 100,000 steps, each step barely stayed for less than five seconds before he stepped over, and sped forward under the surprised gaze of a monk.

Yuan Tianzhong is an elite disciple of the Daomen Great Sect Yiyuan Sect, he has put a lot of effort into participating in this Four Domains Competition, and now he has finally come to the Imperial Capital. However, it wasn't until he came to the imperial capital that he suddenly discovered that this shijie was so big, and the number of geniuses was simply staggering.

He relied on his penance to step through the 100,000 steps, in which he spent a lot of effort, elixir, magic weapons, to Zuihou even used the means to press the bottom of the box, only to barely climb the 100,000th steps, but in the face of the next steps, he still hesitated, but soon he made up his mind to climb again, but the situation he encountered after that was very different.

Illusions kept appearing in front of him, lust, money, power, etc., etc., endless temptations kept tempting him to stop, but fortunately, his mind was still firm, and his mood was thorough, so he was not tempted by the illusion, but he also found a thing, with the higher the number of steps, the more powerful the illusion became, and now it is only 150,000 steps, and the power of the illusion has become terrifying.

"Get out of the way, I don't want a wife, I don't want ......"

A loud shout sounded, Yuan Tianzhong opened his eyes violently, and he was drenched in cold sweat. Just now he stepped into the illusion again, and this time the illusion he encountered was much more powerful than the previous one, it actually reminded him of his past, if he hadn't woken up at the critical moment, maybe he had completely failed at this moment.

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous, if it weren't for Zuihou waking up, maybe ......"

Yuan Tianzhong couldn't help but feel lucky, waved his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and couldn't help but look behind him, but then he couldn't help but open his mouth wide in surprise.

Liu Muqing was covered in flames, he stepped out, and before the power of the illusion was fully unfolded, the Buddha fire burst out, burning the illusion around him in an instant, and those familiar characters disappeared in an instant, and it could not affect his heart at all.

"Hey, hello fellow Daoist, why did you stop?"

Liu Muqing stepped on the 150,000th step with a relaxed face, looked at Yuan Tianzhong beside him and greeted him with a smile.

Yuan Tianzhong looked at him in amazement, his eyes widened, if he had been at the beginning, he could have thought that he had seen it wrong, but now that the other party was indeed standing by his side, the terrifying illusion seemed to have no effect on him at all, but it took only four or five breaths to completely crack it, how did he do it, could it be said that his state of mind had reached the point of perfection.

"Dao...... Daoyou ...... You ......"

Yuan Tianzhong stammered a little and wanted to ask a question, but found that Liu Muqing had already climbed the upper steps, and he couldn't help but want to catch up in his heart, but in the next moment he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, but after a while, a scream sounded, and he fell.

Liu Muqing looked down at Yuan Tianzhong, couldn't help but shake his head, whistled and stepped on again, and soon reached the top of the 200,000th step.

"This kid is so fast, he has climbed more than 200,000 steps in such a short time, and he is still rising!"

East Warm Pavilion, outside the Yuan Hao mirror.

A middle-aged man with long hair and fluttering pointed to Yuan Hao's outside the mirror and said in surprise.

His voice instantly attracted the attention of many people, and they couldn't help but look wherever they went, and saw that in Yuan Hao's mirror, a man in white floated up a step, and then woke up without taking a few breaths, and quickly stared up on the steps again, as if the illusion did not confuse his mind at all.

The people who can sit in the Dongnuan Pavilion must be the top figures of the great sects, although they are not those ancestors, but they are also the characters above the tens of thousands under one person, they have all reached the realm of the peak of Jindan, and it may not take long to achieve the Yuan Infant and become an ancestor.

Among them, there was a monk in a golden robe, he looked up, his eyes couldn't help but widen in an instant, and he suddenly exclaimed: "Buddha fire!"

After he exclaimed, he instantly woke up and was speechless, hurriedly shut up, and then hurriedly stood up and walked out of the Dongnuan Pavilion and walked in the direction of Yuhua Palace.

In the Yuhua Palace, dozens of Yuan Infant Ancestors sat together, and they sat cross-legged in different directions, corresponding to the stars and geography, as if they were maintaining some big array.

An old monk in the left formation suddenly opened his eyes, and he said to a middle-aged man in the central direction: "Lord of the Great Xia Kingdom, my Buddhist disciple has something to see!"

Although everyone present was in the middle of the formation, they did not restrict their freedom of speech, and although they could not leave the formation easily, they also spoke without hindrance.

The Great Xia Lord in the central position slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were more black, like the vast stars, he turned his head to look at the old monk who was talking, and then the Great Xia Lord couldn't help but smile slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the door of the Yuhua Palace suddenly opened.

The old monk glanced at the person outside the door and asked in a deep voice, "Yilong, why are you looking for me?"

The old monk of the dragon did not dare to slack off, these people in front of him include all the great supernatural people of demons, Tao, Buddha, officials, and gods, each of them can be described as a hegemon, a generation of giants, one sentence can decide the life and death of countless people, and one action can even cause a landslide tsunami.

Yilong hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed respectfully a few times, and said, "Uncle, I found a Buddhist disciple with a Buddha fire on the way to ascend to the immortal, and the disciple didn't dare to slack off and came to report it!"

Although the old monk had been in a state of ancient wells, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression when he heard this, he frowned and asked Xiang Yilong, "Maybe confirmed?"

"It's true!"

"Amitabha, the Buddha has mercy, a dragon passes on my Buddha's will, if this son passes the third round of the Four Domains Dabi, he will immediately be brought into the Western Regions Buddhism, and he will be crowned as a Buddha, and his status is equal to mine!"

The old monk's words instantly aroused the interest of everyone present, they are all characters of a generation of giants, and they naturally know a lot about the shili of Buddhism. Naturally, they have heard of the name of this Buddha, but it is not clear what this Buddha represents, but from the mouth of the old monk, they also guessed a thing or two, and understood that this Buddha must be very important to Buddhism, but after a few breaths, someone moved his mind.

"Fellow Daoists, it is still up to to us whether this son is my Buddha Sect Buddha, but after all, this is still during the Four Domains Great Competition, so you and I should not have any different intentions!" The old monk opened his eyes and looked around at everyone, and said softly. This sentence was like a warning and a reminder, which made the hearts of everyone present move, and after a while, they all fell silent.

It wasn't until he climbed the 800,000th step that Liu Muqing's speed couldn't help but slow down. At this time, the illusion is much more powerful than before, and it is no longer just a simple temptation, but can evoke most of the things hidden in the bottom of the heart.

Everyone has something they don't want to mention, the monk was also a mortal before becoming a monk, the reason why he embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, but because of the obsession in his heart, but there must be a loss, although he got a long life and powerful means, but also lost his family affection and aiqing, and even some people have become a family before seeking the Tao, and finally can only abandon their wives and become a lonely ghost.

Liu Muqing was now suffering from an unspeakable pain, and a woman appeared in front of him, a very ordinary woman. She was dressed in a denim suit, with a cool expression on her face, her hair tied up like a chicken nest, but she didn't have colorful dyed hair, and although her face was unruly, there were no messy nose rings and earrings.

This woman is not someone else, it is his girlfriend before he crossed, a crazy and a little silly girl, a simple but very troublesome girl, and it is precisely because of her that she has changed from a boy to a man, and it is precisely because of her that she has changed a lot.

"Xiaoqing, Xianggong misses you so much, where have you been!"

Familiar voices, familiar faces, familiar tones and expressions, everything is so familiar, yet so unreal.

"Xiaoqing, what's wrong with you, why don't you say it, is that bastard bullying you again, I'll kill him!"

Liu Muqing only felt a pain in his heart, tears filled his eyes at some point, he knew that this was fake, he knew that as long as he was willing, he only needed a Buddha fire to break the illusion in front of him, but he really didn't want to do that, he really didn't want to do that, just because he missed her too much.

"weishenme?weishenme was going to go, I told you, it's okay, you weishenme still have to go, otherwise how could you ......"

Liu Muqing felt a pain in his heart, the tears in his eyes couldn't help but flow, and he turned his head violently not to look at her, as if he didn't want her to see him crying.

Then a warm embrace surrounded him, and a pair of slightly rough arms kept flapping on his back, although the force was a little heavy, but it could be seen that she still cared about him.

"Don't cry, Xianggong promised to take good care of you, don't cry, okay!"

For a moment, Liu Muqing only felt that the floodgates in his heart were suddenly opened, he pushed the other party away violently, and howled loudly at the other party with tears in his eyes: "Why do you care about me, you don't listen to me, you don't listen to me, you weishenme care about me, Liu Qingqing, you ......"

The whimpering sound made him speechless anymore, Liu Muqing waved his hand at her, and instantly a fire appeared between the two, the flames were burning, but there was no trace of temperature.

The girl in the flames looked at him calmly, with a faint smile on her face, she waved her hand at Liu Muqing, as if to say, "Take care!"

Just like back then.

The foreground gradually became clear, Liu Muqing still had tears in his eyes, he looked at the Dengxian Road above, but there was a trace of hatred in his heart, if it weren't for this illusion, maybe she in his heart would not have appeared, buried in the bottom of his heart forever, and ended with himself.
