Chapter 881 Trial in the Mountain
At the foot of Luohun Mountain, Li Qing watched for a long time before taking the first step.
boom!
Almost instantly, he felt that his soul seemed to be carrying a shackles and was being strongly suppressed.
Li Qing tried to separate his consciousness from the body, but at most he was only able to leave the body for more than ten feet, and the range was reduced a lot.
"This mountain is truly worthy of the name of Lost Soul. My physical body has not been affected at all, but it is still difficult to climb up."
Li Qing sighed and climbed up again.
With every step he takes toward the mountain, the burden on his soul becomes heavier. An ordinary monk in the transformation stage may not even be able to see the scenery halfway up the mountain.
But fortunately, Li Qing has practiced the "Soul Refining Sutra", and his soul's power has surpassed that of the late stage of divine transformation, and it is already close to the strength of the soul of the void refining stage.
In the process of climbing the Luohun Mountain, Li Qing's soul also became more condensed in a subtle way.
This is a kind of tempering method that is difficult to experience in the outside world. It is specifically aimed at one's own soul. Once it can be sharpened from it, it will make one's own soul become much more powerful.
But even with such huge benefits, not many people are willing to climb mountains.
Because if you want your soul to become significantly stronger, you must endure unimaginable hardships. Few people can bear this kind of pain.
Often those who forcefully climb a mountain will end up with a wounded soul but nothing to gain in the end.
It can be said that he lost his wife and lost his troops. This is why Luohun Mountain has not been famous in the Tianguang Secret Realm for a long time, and it is far inferior to several other treasure places that hide opportunities.
But it is precisely for this reason that Luohun Mountain seems to be a bit uninterested. If there is a source of creation, Li Qing feels that the chance of getting it is not small.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Li Qing's steps became heavier and heavier, and there were a few wisps of bloodshot eyes in his eyes, as if he was undergoing some kind of unimaginable torture.
"Hoo!"
He took a long breath and slowly sat down cross-legged. He stopped climbing the mountain and began to adapt to the current pressure on his soul.
Climbing recklessly puts oneself in danger. Although the physical body does not bear any pressure, the consequences of trauma to the soul are much more serious than the trauma to the physical body.
After a while, Li Qing stood up again, the look in his eyes looking much more determined.
In Luohun Mountain, there is not a single green plant to be seen, only dark rocks. The scenery is very boring.
Just when Li Qing was approaching the mountainside, a painful groan suddenly came from a natural cave on the side.
Hearing this movement, Li Qing's eyes immediately narrowed.
"Lord City Lord, I may have betrayed your trust."
Hu Sheng was seen wearing a large black windbreaker, lying in the cave with a look of pain on his face.
The endurance of his soul has reached its limit. If he doesn't think of a way to leave, there is only one ending waiting for him, which is death of soul exhaustion.
After Li Qing watched for a while, he appeared.
"Fellow Daoist Hu, it seems that your situation is not good." Li Qing said with a chuckle.
He did not expect that this human Taoist fellow who entered the Tianguang Secret Realm with him would work so hard for the task assigned by the Lord of Lingxu City, even risking his own life, and went straight to the mountainside.
Obviously, this place has exceeded the limit of what he can bear, and he can't even go down the mountain at this moment.
His soul seemed to be carrying a huge burden, and he couldn't even control his body freely.
Hu Sheng, who was lying on the rock wall, turned his head with difficulty and saw Li Qing with a chuckle on his face.
It seems that Li Qing's condition is much better than him, not at all like him, who is desperate for life and death.
"Fellow Daoist Li Li, you are here."
"Quick, there may be a source of creation fluid hidden deep in this cave. Go in and have a look."
Hu Sheng didn't even care about his own life and directly let Li Qing enter the cave. He actually regarded the task assigned by the Lord of Lingxu City as more important than his own life.
This was beyond Li Qing's expectation. It was a bit difficult for him to understand. Normally, the first thing a person would do when encountering this kind of situation would be to ask for help.
Hu Sheng is an indigenous monk from Xuan Ancient City and has a strong sense of belonging to this human city.
But it is obviously not appropriate to do nothing to save the current situation. It is something that can be done easily.
Li Qing grabbed Hu Sheng and took him out of the cave, then prepared to send him down a few steps.
But Hu Sheng stopped his behavior. He said weakly: "Don't spend too much energy on me. Save some energy. The most important thing is to go into the cave to see if there is any source of creation fluid!"
"Do you really not want to live anymore? Although I know that you respect the Lord of Lingxu City, you won't risk your life for the source of creation fluid that is not sure whether it is in it." Li Qing said with a slight frown. This was when he entered the world of cultivating immortals. The most self-sacrificing monk I have ever seen.
Hu Sheng shook his head and said: "Young Daoist Li was not born and raised in Yuxuan Ancient City, so naturally he doesn't understand how humble the human race's status was in the Tonggu Continent before."
"That is, after the Lord of Lingxu City came to power, this situation gradually improved."
"If the human race wants to continue to gain a foothold in the Tonggu Continent, it must rely on the City Lord. No matter what, the City Lord must be able to survive the next great catastrophe without fail."
In response, Li Qing shook his head and said: "The future of the human race will definitely not only lie with the Lord of Lingxu City, but also with you, me, and more human monks."
"The status gained by relying on the strength of one person is ultimately empty. Even if that person is in the Mahayana stage, it may not be able to make the tribe prosper for a long time."
"If something unexpected happens to the Lord of Lingxu City in the future, I might not be able to advance to the Void Refining Stage or even a higher realm."
Hu Sheng was stunned for a long time after hearing Li Qing's words.
It was too difficult to advance to the Void Refining Stage, and the hope was so slim that he didn't even dare to dream about it.
Dozens of monks in the God Transformation Stage may not be able to give birth to a strong person in the Void Refining Stage, and it is even more unlikely.
Hu Sheng, who was born in Xuangu City, had witnessed with his own eyes how many monks in the God Transformation stage died with regret in the catastrophe of breaking through the Void Refining stage.
"That's it. I can already go down the mountain by myself." Hu Sheng regained his ability to move. The burden on his soul could not be reduced much, and he could already control his body.
"Fellow Daoist Li, follow the cave deeper and you will get close to the core of Luohun Mountain. The burden of the soul will increase exponentially, so please proceed with caution."
Li Qing nodded and said, "Thank you for letting me know. I'll go in and see if there is any source of creation fluid."
After saying that, he turned around and continued walking towards the huge cave halfway up the mountain.
Hu Sheng looked at Li Qing's back and continued to climb the mountain step by step with firm steps. He couldn't help but lower his head, showing a look of shame.
"As expected of an ascended person who was able to fight his way out of a poor place like the lower realm. His ambition to cultivate Taoism is truly lofty."
"But breaking through to the Void Refining Stage cannot be achieved with a lot of ambition." After entering the cave again, Li Qing's expression became more solemn before he took a few steps inside.
He felt as if his soul was carrying a mountain on his back. Every time he took a step inside, the invisible mountain would become heavier.
"Hiss is really a terrifying divine soul pressure."
Li Qing's eyes showed emotion. He didn't dare to think about the pressure he would face if he wanted to go deep into this cave.
This is probably a burden that can really squeeze out the soul!
At this time, Li Qing had some intention of retreating and did not intend to risk his own life.
"We can only try to run the "Soul Refining Sutra" to see if we can withstand the pressure."
This secret method has become the foundation for Li Qing's soul to be far superior to monks of the same level. Until now, he has only cultivated this secret method to the second level. As for the third level, he has not yet been able to get started.
"The accumulated yang becomes a god, and the form is contained in the god"
This is the introduction to the meaning of the third level of the "Soul Refining Sutra" and is the key to completing the third level of the "Soul Refining Sutra".
Li Qing recited the scriptures silently, trying to practice the "Soul Refining Sutra" that he had never made any progress in.
But the next moment, what made him somewhat unexpected was that this passage seemed to trigger a sudden movement in the entire Luohun Mountain.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Boom!
The huge and majestic Luohun Mountain trembled slightly for a while, shaking off a large amount of gravel and falling onto the cliff.
Li Qing, who was in the cave, felt his eyes blurred as the scene suddenly changed.
The next moment, his soul left his body and left his body.
Before Li Qing could figure out what was going on, a huge millstone was crushing towards him.
"What the hell is going on?!"
Li Qing wanted to escape, but he did not dare to risk his soul to withstand such a blow, which would probably end up with him being completely destroyed.
But he found that he couldn't control the movement of his soul body, and could only watch the huge millstone crushing him.
Boom!
The millstone passed by, and Li Qing felt as if he was struck by lightning, and an extremely strong pain came from his soul.
He felt as if his soul was torn apart. He had never experienced such severe pain in his life.
This feeling is like that of someone who has not died immediately after a car crash, but whose consciousness still remains. It is even many times more intense than this.
"The accumulated yin is formed, and the yin and yang of the gods appear and disappear in the form, which is the light of the sun and the moon."
Li Qing continued to recite the verses of the "Soul Refining Sutra" silently, and his injured soul recovered at an extremely fast speed.
After a while, the pain of being crushed by a millstone finally slowly disappeared.
Li Qing even found that his spirit had grown a little stronger.
In addition, he seems to have finally mastered the third level of the "Soul Refining Sutra" he has practiced!
Before he could continue to be shocked, a voice suddenly sounded in this strange soul space:
"The first level of trial has been passed, and three soul-condensing pills are rewarded. Do you want to go to the second level of trial?"
Hearing this voice, Li Qing felt a chill in his body. He didn't expect that there was an unknown and inexplicable existence here.
"Who? Who are you?"
Li Qing's response was still a mechanical voice: "I am the weapon spirit of Luohun Mountain, responsible for the trial of the disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Sect."
"Do you want to conduct a second trial?"
It turns out to be a weapon spirit!
Li Qing's eyes flashed, he had never heard of this so-called Nine Heavens Holy Sect.
He suspected that this should be a force in the Tianguang Secret Realm many years ago. It has been unknown how many years have passed, and now only the weapon spirit in this mountain still exists.
He didn't expect that he would actually trigger the weapon spirit in the mountain to appear.
"Does the Soul Refining Sutra have anything to do with the so-called Nine Heavens Holy Sect? I just ran the Soul Refining Sutra and entered this place."
"No, in other words, in order to unlock the secrets of Luohun Mountain, you must cultivate some kind of secret method with a powerful soul."
"Only by operating the secret method in the mountain can the specialness of this mountain be unlocked!"
Of course, he did not rule out that it was due to the special "Soul Refining Sutra" he practiced.
The weapon spirit in Luohun Mountain did not give Li Qing much time to think, and still asked mechanically: "The tester did not respond, so the default is to enter the second level of the test."
Li Qing:? ? ?
There was a question mark on his face. He didn't expect that this weapon spirit was so inhumane. If he didn't respond, he would enter the second level of the trial by default!
"Wait, I want to end the trial!"
But it was too late, this time two golden stone mills rolled against each other, squeezing towards his soul.
The first trial was already so painful that he almost lost consciousness. Now that two stone mills were grinding against him at the same time, the pain would probably be even more exaggerated.
Li Qing's eyes were extremely serious. Once the trial started, there was no possibility of stopping.
He had to resist it no matter what, and then terminate the third trial first and figure out everything here first.
Otherwise, he will continue to accept trials and tests in a daze, and no matter how powerful his soul is, he will not be able to bear it.
In the flash of lightning, two golden millstones rolled over in the space, directly sandwiching Li Qing's soul between them.
The next moment, the two millstones rotated in opposite directions, and Li Qing, who was caught in the middle, suddenly became confused.
The severe pain that was many times more painful than before hit him, and he almost couldn't resist it, and he fainted on the spot.
Soon, the two golden stone mills dissipated, leaving Li Qing's soul resting in place.
"Those who rise and fall with Yin and Yang are the Qi of gold and jade"
He continued to practice the third level of the "Soul Refining Sutra" and repaired the trauma to his soul, and the severe pain gradually dissipated.
"The second trial has passed, and a randomly refined Yuan Shen Weapon inheritance will be rewarded. Do you want to proceed to the third trial?"
This time, Li Qing, who was tortured and incomprehensible, refused to continue at any cost.
He was convinced that there was a risk of soul annihilation in this space. If he was not fully prepared, he would probably die here.
"No, no, no! I want to end the trial!"
