clatter.
clatter.
clatter.
...
The mountain path was rugged and covered in deep snow. With each step Su Bai took, he left a heavy footprint on the road leading up the mountain.
His fair cheeks turned red as the pressure on his shoulders increased, and glistening tears slid down his face like a continuous rain.
but,
His pace did not slow down.
And so, continuing downhill, Su Bai arrived at the final section of the mountain path that Hu Buxiao had mentioned earlier, the path to the summit.
As he stepped onto this path, the pressure around him suddenly increased. At the same time, the scenery before his eyes began to change. Familiar figures and unforgettable scenes came crashing down on him like a tide.
"It turns out that this section of the journey not only increases the pressure, but also has the meaning of tempering one's mind."
A hint of understanding flashed in Su Bai's eyes, but no matter how these images came at him, his expression did not change in the slightest, and his speed of climbing the mountain did not decrease at all.
"In this world, there is such a perfect state of mind. Does this person truly have no weaknesses?"
Tianjue Mountain.
At the summit, a middle-aged man dressed in a white robe, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly stood up, a look of deep surprise on his face.
He is the mountain lord of this place, ruling over this land for tens of millions of years, but he has never seen anyone in this world climb the mountain with such invincible power as Su Bai!
"Your mind is like the moon; no matter how bright it is, it will still have flaws. I refuse to believe that you, buddy, truly have no weaknesses!"
The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed, and with a wave of his long sleeves, the mist of the entire Tianjue Mountain surged and churned, enveloping Su Bai.
This change made the group of powerful figures in the mountains feel lighter, and some of them who were unable to adjust in time even fell flat on their faces.
This change left many powerful figures somewhat bewildered.
However, they were unaware that the pressure around Su Bai had suddenly increased dozens of times, and such immense pressure had caused his feet to sink into the mountain.
In addition, the various scenes before his eyes also became more numerous at this time.
The familiar calls, at this moment, were like bewitching, enchanting sounds, lingering endlessly.
Moreover, these images and sounds are not illusions, and his pure sword heart cannot be immune to them.
However, even so, Su Bai's face did not show much emotion.
However, this sudden increase in pressure made it extremely difficult for him to move forward. It took him a long time to take a step forward and leave a deep footprint on the mountain path.
"Mountain Lord, to go to such great lengths, mobilizing all the mountain mists of Tianjue Mountain, just to target one person, this is not your style, Mountain Lord."
At the summit of Tianjue Mountain, an old man dressed in a white Taoist robe emerged from the void.
"Kawakami, what are you doing here?"
"Let's take a look. This person crossed the Spirit River, obtained the source of the Spirit River, and condensed a second-stage sword body. He is an unparalleled genius. So I want to see if he can easily ascend to the Heavenly Extinction Mountain."
"oh?"
The mountain lord's expression changed. "This person actually obtained the source of the Spirit River?"
"Mm." Kawakami nodded.
"Could it be that his flawless state of mind is real?"
"A flawless state of mind?"
Kawakami murmured, a look of shock suddenly appearing on his face.
"This person actually possesses a flawless state of mind. How is that possible? Among all cultivators in the world, a flawless mind is the most difficult to attain. How could a human who just came from the ancestral star of humanity be able to cultivate such a state of mind in that weak star field?"
"It is precisely because of this uncertainty that I resorted to this desperate measure, wanting to test the waters."
The mountain king nodded.
"Does the mountain king have an answer now?"
"I learned from these mountain mists that his life was actually very bitter, and his state of mind was not naturally flawless."
"I think it must have been some powerful figure who devised a psychological strategy for him, shattering his mind and then rebuilding it flawlessly, thus forging an invincible heart."
"But I cannot see the image of this great being clearly, as if some supreme being has obscured his secrets, making them impossible to find."
"A powerful being?"
The River God pondered for a moment, "Mountain Lord, I have another question for you. Look at this boy's face. Do you feel a sense of familiarity, yet you can't quite place him?"
"Um?"
The mountain king was taken aback, then looked him over.
He hadn't noticed this before, but when he looked closely at Su Bai's face, his expression changed in an instant.
Because, just as Kawakami said, he felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, and he couldn't recall any memory of that face.
"It seems you feel the same way."
Kawakami got the answer from his face.
"Given this situation, I suspect that there is a supreme being, roughly the same powerful being you mentioned whose existence is unknowable, who has concealed the secrets of heaven for him,"
"But no matter what, there are no more than five people in the entire Heavenly Path Realm who can give you and me this feeling, and each of them is an extremely terrifying existence."
"This person is definitely extraordinary!"
Upon hearing this, Shan Jun frowned. "You mean you're going to take a stand?"
"Right now, the foreign races are overwhelmingly powerful, and humanity is on the verge of extinction. Our ancestors were all from the human race. Do you think we will have any chance of survival after the destruction of Chengtian City?"
"Furthermore, no matter what, providing help in times of need is always better than adding to someone's already good fortune. Moreover, I see in this human that the hope for the revival of humanity is shining brightly!"
