On the distant other side of the world, Si Qiushan finally found the Immortal Mountain.

She arrived at the foot of the Immortal Mountain, gazing at the towering mountain range, wanting to fly forward quickly, but found that she had lost the ability to step into the air.

No one is allowed to fly within the Immortal Realm Mountains; all climbers must rely on their own two feet to reach the summit step by step.

These were the words Mo Rouyun had said to her before she set off.

So she began to walk forward step by step.

However, as soon as she took the first step, she felt as if a thousand-pound weight was pressing down on her shoulders!

"What... what is this?"

Si Qiushan suddenly felt like she couldn't move an inch.

She stepped into a deep hole, and after struggling to regain her balance, she took a second step.

Then came the third step, the fourth step...

She was drenched in sweat with every step she took, as if she had used up all her strength!

"Was he... under such pressure, carrying the dying Qian Weiwei on his quest for immortality?" Si Qiushan thought to herself, her forehead covered in sweat.

Her steps forward were heavier than she had imagined; after only about ten steps, her body reached its limit.

Thump!

She knelt on the ground, panting heavily.

After resting for a long time, she continued on her way.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the Immortal Realm Mountain, and she recalled Mo Rouyun's words of advice to her.

...

"In the secret realm on Immortal Mountain, there is an elderly Quasi-Immortal Emperor named Heavenly Mystery Immortal Venerable. He was once a friend of the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor, and he possesses relics left behind by the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor. If you can retrieve the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor's relics for Nian'er, then we will no longer need to fear the Ghost Immortal!"

"The relics of the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor... Such a precious item, can I really bring it back by myself alone?"

"You can do it." Mo Rouyun patted Si Qiushan's shoulder and said earnestly, "This is something only you can do! I believe in you!"

...

Mo Rouyun's words echoed in Si Qiushan's mind as she staggered forward, taking each step with difficulty.

Ignoring her physical limits, she desperately kept moving forward, step by step.

We cannot back down!

Si Qiushan thought to herself.

We absolutely cannot stop! Finding the Heavenly Mystery Immortal Venerable and retrieving the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor's relics is the only hope for victory. The Soft Cloud Immortal Venerable entrusted such an important mission to me. If I fall here, I will not only be letting down the Soft Cloud Immortal Venerable's expectations, but also Su Nian, who has persevered for a hundred lifetimes!

With each step she took, Si Qiushan felt a burning pain as if her body was melting.

She didn't realize that the shackles that bound her to the sixth level of Tribulation Transcending Body had been broken at this moment, and she had reached the seventh level of Tribulation Transcending Body!

The improvement in her cultivation brought her newfound power, and she continued forward.

However, not long after, she reached her limit again.

After pushing her limits, she regained her strength and continued to move forward with great difficulty!

Eighth level of tribulation, ninth level of tribulation, half-step into the true immortal realm!

Si Qiushan had no idea how long she had been walking.

Her consciousness was fading, and her body felt as if it would fall apart and collapse at any moment.

But she kept moving forward.

Until the very last moment, her consciousness completely faded away.

He collapsed onto the wasteland with a thud.

...

In the secret realm atop the Immortal Mountain.

An elderly man with white hair sat cross-legged in the cave, meditating peacefully, motionless, like a statue.

He blended into his surroundings so well that even ordinary True Immortal Realm experts couldn't detect his presence.

A short while later, a female disciple walked in from outside.

She is a disciple of the Celestial Venerable of Heavenly Secrets, and her cultivation level is True Immortal Realm. She is also a Celestial Walker.

She stopped in front of the Celestial Master, cupped her hands and said, "Master, Si Qiushan has collapsed. Should we bring her in?"

Celestial Master Tianji remained silent for a long time.

He didn't respond, and the Celestial Walker waited quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the Celestial Venerable of Heavenly Secrets finally spoke.

"Wait a little longer... If she really can't stand up, then you can go and get her. It's not too late."

"Yes, sir!" the Heavenly Mystery Walker replied.

Several more days passed, and Si Qiushan, who had collapsed, still showed no reaction.

The Celestial Walker once again appeared before the Celestial Immortal.

She was about to say something when Celestial Venerable Tianji spoke first.

"Very well..." he murmured softly, "It seems this woman is not destined to become an immortal... Yuan'er, go and fetch her."

"Yes, sir!"

The Heavenly Secrets Walker accepted the order and then prepared to descend the mountain.

Although the Celestial Venerable was inside the cave, he could still sense Si Qiushan's every move.

Seeing that she was almost dead, they prepared to let the Heavenly Mystery Walker go down the mountain.

However, just after he gave the order, Si Qiushan, who was almost lifeless, suddenly moved.

Celestial Master Tianji opened his eyes.

"Yuan'er, wait a minute!"

The Celestial Walker stopped in his tracks.

"What's wrong, Master?"

Celestial Master stroked his beard and said with relief, "I think... I don't need to go pick her up anymore..."

Within the wasteland, Si Qiushan's cultivation level is steadily increasing!

In the end, the celestial energy completely replaced the spiritual energy within her body! And Si Qiushan's cultivation level, following Xu Xinrou, also reached the True Immortal Realm!

She stood up again.

With each step taken, the surrounding environment seemed to recede wildly!

It is extremely difficult for mortals to approach the Immortal Mountain.

But for immortals, climbing the mountain is as easy as turning their hands!
