Wu Ming had never felt that climbing hundreds of stairs was as difficult as it was today; this was the first time.
For martial artists who have already reached the Dharma Aspect Realm, they have far surpassed the ordinary Immortal and Mortal Realms and the Profound Spirit Realm, and are located in the third realm of the five realms of Immortal and Mortal.
Walking allows you to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and make it your own.
In other words, a dynamic balance is formed between absorption from the outside world and consumption by the internal body.
As long as this balance is not broken, even traveling a hundred miles at night is effortless.
This is precisely what makes a martial artist at the Dharma Aspect Realm so terrifying.
The five realms of the human world include the most basic Immortal Realm, then the Profound Spirit Realm with significant improvement, and then the Dharma Aspect Realm, which involves tempering muscles and bones and completely integrating spiritual power into the blood.
From this point on, the first step of transformation is completed. The next step is the Tribulation Transcending Realm. After safely passing through the Tribulation Transcending Realm, one reaches the Divine Treasure Realm, where a divine soul is born within the body.
This soul is completely different from the soul in the Divine Treasury Realm. It is a soul with true life and its own consciousness. As long as the soul is not destroyed, even if the physical body is completely destroyed, it can still survive in the world.
This is the final step, the last step, to reach the Saint Realm.
Although it is easier to go from the Divine Realm to the Saint than from the Dao Palace to the Immortal Realm, it is still an insurmountable gap for most people.
Therefore, for all cultivators, the realm of sainthood is a peak that they always look up to and strive to reach.
Above the sages lies the realm of emperors.
For martial artists who have already entered the ranks of saints, there is an even higher pursuit in their hearts: the legendary Emperor Realm.
For Wu Ming at this moment, the old man he was carrying on his back was the man who had once come incredibly close to the Emperor Realm.
Although every step was extremely difficult, he finally breathed a sigh of relief after half an hour when he reached the last step and saw the stone tablet of Qingyun Peak.
He was drenched in sweat, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans were dripping from his forehead.
Upon seeing Qingyun Peak, Wang Xu stared blankly ahead at the stone tablet in front of him, where the two large characters "Zhou Mansion" were powerfully engraved.
Seemingly having seen something, his eyes welled up with tears. After a long moment of contemplation, he finally moved and slowly walked towards that spot.
His expression gradually turned solemn.
The gloom that once filled his eyes has vanished, replaced by a look of devotion.
After a long while, he made a move that shocked everyone.
He, a martial artist who had been famous throughout the Nine Provinces for a hundred years, actually knelt down before a stone tablet that was only inscribed with the two characters "Zhou Mansion".
Moreover, they were prostrate on the ground, symbolizing complete submission.
Wu Ming was stunned.
After catching his breath and recovering from the physical strain of climbing the mountain, he calmed down and looked at the scene. Suddenly, he understood why his father had asked him to find Zhou Mu to be the person in charge of the Divine Realm in the Desolate Heaven Domain.
Even a powerful figure like Wang Xu is willing to serve under him. Given time, he will surely grow into a powerful figure in his own right.
actually.
Of the group, Ye Mujiu was the most shocked.
She had no idea what Wang Xu was doing.
From Zhang Ling'er's few words, she had learned of Wang Xu's noble status. It was truly puzzling that a martial artist who had become famous a hundred years ago would pay such a great salute to Qingyun Peak.
As for the stone tablet with the two large characters "Zhou Mansion" engraved on it, Ye Mujiu had also questioned its origin, but when she asked, Zhou Mu always brushed it off with a few words.
Trusting Zhou Mu, she didn't hesitate.
at this time.
After doing all this despite everyone's shock, Wang Xu slowly got up and walked to the stone tablet with the words "Zhou Mansion" on it with an almost pious expression. He then stretched out his withered hand and slowly rubbed it back and forth.
His eyes were closed, but his lips curved into a smile.
A smile crept across his face.
The feeling was like reuniting with an old friend after many years of separation; it had an indescribable flavor.
After a long while, he finally snapped out of his reverie and walked towards Qingyun Peak on his own.
Seeing this, Wu Ming quickly followed.
Ye Mujiu and Zhang Ling'er followed behind.
After searching the entire main hall, he still hadn't found the person he expected, and Wang Xu's eyes clearly showed disappointment.
"Little girl, where is Zhou Mu? And what is your relationship with Zhou Mu?"
At this moment, Wang Xu seemed like a different person. His serious demeanor and unique temperament made him look somewhat like a reclusive master.
"Forehead……"
Feeling embarrassed by such a direct question, Ye Mujiu blushed and lowered her head, remaining silent.
This is quite obvious.
Wang Xu didn't ask any further questions.
However, upon seeing this, Wu Ming's expression changed drastically. He quickly looked at Zhang Ling'er, seemingly wanting confirmation from her, "Is the person Mu Jiu mentioned Zhou Mu?"
Zhang Ling'er nodded.
Wu Ming looked pale.
Finished
There's absolutely no hope now.
If Ye Mujiu's target is someone else, then it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to use force to rob them openly.
But this person happens to be Zhou Mu. Not only does his father value him, but even Wang Xu, a veteran powerhouse who has been famous for a hundred years, is willing to submit to him.
Compared to him, he is simply not competitive at all.
Just then, Lu Shan swaggered out from a side hall.
Seeing the spacious hall packed with people, he was taken aback.
Then, his gaze fell on the most dazzling figure in the crowd—Zhang Ling'er.
He immediately approached with a smile, "Ling'er, what brings you here? You should have told me sooner, I would have prepared some food. It's getting late, why don't we have dinner here and have a good chat..."
As soon as he saw Zhang Ling'er, Lu Shan started rambling on and on.
Wu Ming quickly recovered from his grief. He saw his stepmother being harassed in front of him, and he was instantly enraged. He dared to take a step forward to teach the other party a lesson.
In a flash, he realized that since he was living with Zhou Mu, they must have a very good relationship. If he offended this person, he would likely offend Zhou Mu as well.
With this in mind, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.
We can only pretend we didn't see it.
"Oh dear, didn't you see there are outsiders here? Be more reserved, be more reserved."
Ye Mujiu had long realized that Lu Shan was interested in all her close friends, so she was happy to play matchmaker. Anyway, now that she had someone backing her up, she was no longer afraid of the Divine Realm. As for the so-called marriage agreement, it had long been forgotten.
Lu Shan blushed, a rare occurrence for him, and then lowered his head, looking somewhat embarrassed.
As for Zhang Ling'er, the protagonist, a blush quickly swept across her cheeks.
It's quite obvious that Zhang Ling'er also has some feelings for Lu Shan.
