Hatred, unwillingness, anxiety, and fear were the most terrible mental obstacles for cultivators. They were like pieces of firewood, suspended beside the Taoist Heart and became a fence, blocking the fresh wind and water outside the fence. If this situation lasted for too long, things inside the fence would gradually wither.
Prince Long Qing's failure to reach the back of the mountain of the Academy was the first hurdle on his road. Ning Que was the firewood outside Prince Long Qing's Taoist Heart. One of the important purposes of his cultivation in the Wilderness was to remove this firewood. There were many ways to break the fence of the Taoist Heart, such as penance, understanding the classics, or forcing oneself into a desperate situation. But there was no doubt that the simplest way was to chop the firewood into sawdust and blow it away with the wind.
So when Prince Long Qing knew that the firewood called Ning Que had come by itself and that the fence outside his Taoist Heart could be broken, his Taoist Heart, which was covered by dust, gradually brightened. He felt a gush of open air gushing out from his chest and abdomen, and he wanted to roar at the vast mountains like the sea.
At this moment, the world in his eyes was different. The aura of Heaven and Earth flowed slowly between the snow-capped peaks and the black rocks, and the rich and complicated flowing law seemed to be grasped. A door appeared in the clear air between the big mountains in the distance, and it was much clearer than before.
Push open the door and cross the threshold, and you would know your destiny.
Prince Long Qing clasped his hands behind his back and looked at that place with passion. He was silent for a long time.
After a long time, he slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at a snow tree beside him.
As far as his eyes could see, the snow on the branches gradually turned into water. The water droplets wet the dead branches and gathered on the branches, and then condensed into a crystal water droplet, which quickly turned into ice in the cold mountain wind.
In the process of the water droplet freezing, it seemed that there was a wonderful knife in the wind, which did not condense the water droplet into a circle or an oval, but gradually opened, peeling off one by one until it took shape.
It was a crystal and transparent peach blossom, but it gave people a feeling of fresh and beautiful.
The colorless pure water was ice, but it seemed to show colors visually, which was very magical.
Prince Long Qing quietly looked at the ice peach blossoms swaying gently in the wind. There was no pride or satisfaction on his beautiful face. Instead, there was a touch of self-mockery between his handsome eyebrows. He softly sighed and said,
"Only half a minute left."
In the spring, he returned to the West-Hill from the Tang Empire. In the carriage leaving Chang 'an, he once thought that he was about to enter the Knowing Destiny State, and that he might even complete it during the journey. However, what happened later made him wake up from this emotion, and then he calmly returned to cultivation.
On the long road of cultivation, there was no turning back once one stepped on it. At the beginning, it was extremely fast, but the further one went, the more dangerous it became. The Knowing Destiny Threshold that separated the Grand Cultivators from the ordinary cultivators was even more towering and extremely difficult to climb. Although he had already seen it, he did not know how long it would take for him to approach and cross it.
However, Prince Long Qing did not feel depressed because he was still very young, and he had already seen the threshold. Compared to those people who had cultivated for hundreds of years but still did not know where the treasure mountain was, he had enough right to be proud, especially at this moment, he knew that he had moved closer to that threshold.
When it came to breaking the realm, every step forward was so difficult, so every step forward was so touching and even intoxicating.
The snow on dozens of bare branches of the winter tree had all melted, and all the snow flowed to the branches, condensing into crystal clear peach blossoms, reflecting the light from the sky, so beautiful that it did not seem to belong to the human world.
Prince Long Qing stretched out his jade-like right hand from his black sleeve and gently pinched an ice peach blossom with three fingers. He held it in the air and looked at it against the sun for a long time, and then softly sighed, "Long Qing, you are really strong."
At this moment, a clear and childish voice suddenly sounded in the distance, full of surprise and curiosity.
"Are you people from the Central Plains all so thick-skinned?"
Prince Long Qing stopped smiling and looked in that direction with no expression on his face.
On the cliff of the Covered Snow Mountain stood a young girl with a childish face.
The girl was tightly wrapped in a lot of ragged fur, wearing a pair of dirty old black boots and a leather hat on her head. Her black and beautiful hair was braided into a long and thick braid, hanging between her knees and swaying constantly. A furry beast tail covered most of her face, but it could not cover the childishness between her eyebrows.
Prince Long Qing did not sense the fluctuation of Psyche Power from the girl, and slightly raised his eyebrows, thinking that if she was an ordinary person, how could she appear in the bone-chilling Tianqi Mountain, and why did he not notice her?
He thought of a possibility, and asked with a slightly cold gaze, "The Desolate Man returning to the south?"
The girl looked no more than 15 or 16 years old, and her little face was stimulated by the cold wind blowing between the mountains, and her little face was red. Hearing his question, she nodded hard and then said, "I am Tang Xiaotang, and you?"
Prince Long Qing did not answer, but looked at the white furry beast beside the girl, frowned and asked, "A rabbit?"
Tang Xiaotang shook her head and said, "Not a rabbit, a cute little white wolf."
Prince Long Qing did not want to say anything more to the Desolate girl, and his fingertips gently turned the ice peach blossom, ready to let her return to Haotian's Divine Kingdom.
The little snow wolf that had been quietly squatting by Tang Xiaotang's side suddenly stood up with its front paws on the ground. It bared its teeth and howled warily at him. But the snow wolf was too small. Even though the snow white fur on its body stood up, it only looked like a bigger snowball. It was incomparably cute, how was it the least bit scary?
Prince Long Qing thought of the white horse given to him by his fiancée, and suddenly smiled. He thought that when he killed the Desolate girl later, he could not hurt this rare little snow wolf. She would definitely like it if he gave it to her.
Tang Xiaotang did not feel uneasy because of the little snow wolf's vigilance, and her black eyes were full of smiles. She looked at Prince Long Qing and asked, "Do you want to kill me?"
In the vast snow-capped mountains, where there was no sign of human habitation, a cute girl of 15 or 16 years old faced a strange man who had the intention to kill her, and asked him smilingly if he wanted to kill her. She did not show any fear at all, so there could only be two situations. Either she was a silly girl, or she was the real scary person.
Prince Long Qing's lips curled up slightly, and he laughed at himself. He thought that there had been such a situation in those boring and even rotten novels. He believed that this Desolate girl might be a little strange, but there had never been a girl in this world who could threaten him at such a young age.
As he thought of this, an extremely bright red appeared in front of him, like a koi fish wagging its tail in a lake. That red appeared a few years ago, and represented a past that made him feel extremely unhappy. Because of this memory, he became a little agitated, and his face gradually darkened. His beautiful face gradually turned into an ice peach blossom between his fingers.
He looked at Tang Xiaotang expressionlessly and said, "I have killed many remnants of the Devil's Doctrine, but I have not killed the remnants of the Devil's Doctrine among the Desolate Men migrating to the south. Little girl, you should feel honored."
Tang Xiaotang giggled, and stretched her little hand behind her back. She looked at Prince Long Qing who was under a tree in the distance, and said happily, "I have killed many animals like wolves and sheep, but I have not killed anyone from the Divine Hall. You should feel honored."
Her soft laughter represented contempt, and contempt represented provocation. In Prince Long Qing's view, a provocation to him was a provocation to the Divine Hall, and disrespectful to Haotian. So he became angrier, but his expression became calmer.
No matter how he looked at it, this was definitely a one-sided battle. It was more like an adult bullying a little girl. However, unexpectedly, the first one to attack was the little girl wrapped in tattered animal skin.
Tang Xiaotang did not attack with her hands.
It was her feet.
She stepped on the snow, and a deep footprint appeared on the snow. It was so deep that it seemed to be going into the ground. However, her seemingly ordinary black and dirty boot was only slightly deformed, and did not break.
Then, Tang Xiaotang began to run toward the winter tree full of ice peach blossoms.
Every time she stepped on the snowy ground, a large snowflake would be stirred up. It was as if her small body was a heavy mountain, causing the entire cliff to tremble slightly.
The crystal clear ice peach blossoms were shaken and fell from the branches to the ground.
Tang Xiaotang came with the blizzard.
Prince Long Qing's pupils shrank slightly. His right hand, which hung outside his black taoist robe, shook slightly. The falling ice peach blossoms were stimulated by the fluctuation of the Primordial Qi between heaven and earth. They whizzed through the air like countless feathered arrows, and instantly arrived in front of Tang Xiaotang.
These crystal clear ice peach blossoms reflected beautiful light under the sunlight, and set up layers of obstacles between the cliffs. The seemingly fragile petals contained an extremely powerful force.
The cold wind blew against Tang Xiaotang's blushing face, and the beast tail that covered her face made a whistling sound. Her speed was too fast, so fast that it was almost invisible to the naked eye. No one knew how such a small and skinny body could contain such a huge amount of energy, and no one could imagine how her slender legs could not be broken under such speed.
Because of the speed, when the beautiful and terrifying ice peach blossoms appeared in front of her, they were already very close to her young face, and it was impossible for her to avoid them at her current speed.
Tang Xiaotang had learned how to fight from her brother since she was a child, and did not know what avoidance was.
When she ran at a high speed, her right hand had been stretched out behind her. At this time, looking at the sky full of ice peach blossoms, she finally pulled it out.
She pulled out a huge blood-red scimitar.
This scimitar was ridiculously large, and especially when compared with her thin body, it looked especially terrifying. The blade was redder than blood, and no one knew where this scimitar had been hidden in her body.
The blood-red huge scimitar slashed down from the sky, making a whistling sound.
The transparent ice peach blossoms cracked with the sound, and shattered into pieces of ice all over the ground.
Prince Long Qing's Taoist magic was naturally not so simple. When the transparent ice peach blossoms shattered, an extremely powerful Qi of Heaven and Earth surged out from the ice peach.
However, at this time, Tang Xiaotang had already run more than a hundred feet away, and had already split open the fifth ice peach blossoms.
After the peach blossoms split open, they turned into useless ice gravel and fell to the ground.
The Taoist magic contained in the peach blossoms set off countless air waves between the cliffs, and shook up the snow and black rocks. However, it could not catch up with Tang Xiaotang's speed, and could only serve as a foil to the little girl's momentum, which made her look so dispirited and useless.
The blood-red huge scimitar in Tang Xiaotang's small hand split open one peach blossoms, two peach blossoms, and three peach blossoms.
Then it slashed in front of Prince Long Qing.
Prince Long Qing's eyes suddenly brightened, and he gently pushed the ice peach blossoms in his right hand forward, blocking the blade of the blood-red huge scimitar. The transparent petals instantly bloomed, extremely flourishing.
The sharp blade.
The seemingly fragile ice peach blossoms.
Once they met.
It was better than countless things in the human world.
Between the snow cliffs, the Qi of Heaven and Earth shook violently.
The winter tree that had just borne countless peach blossoms was torn into pieces by the turbulence in the air.
Prince Long Qing snorted softly, but did not take a step back.
But the band that tied his black hair suddenly broke, and his black hair fell down like a waterfall, making him look a little embarrassed.
His pale right hand that was holding the ice peach blossoms trembled slightly.
An extremely tiny crack appeared on the ice peach blossoms between his fingers.
Tang Xiaotang, like a nimble bird, stepped lightly on the smoke, and flipped back, landing lightly on the snow.
She giggled and looked at Prince Long Qing, whose black hair was messy. She said, "You're really pretty, just like those girls from the Great River Kingdom in embroidery books. But you don't look like you can fight very well."
Prince Long Qing stared at the Desolate girl, and used a lot of strength to calm his teeth that kept trembling because of anger. A stream of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
It was as bright as the stamens of the peach blossoms.
…
…
His black hair slowly fluttered on Prince Long Qing's beautiful but pale face. His eyes were unusually focused and cold, and his hands that were exposed outside his black sleeves trembled slightly. The small crack on the peach blossoms had disappeared, and the divine sword that the hierarch had given to him at his waist began to gently buzz.
Tang Xiaotang looked at him and scratched her head. She said, "Your state is very high, but you really can't fight. Your peach blossoms are very interesting, better than your sword. If you want to fight head-on with my scimitar, you have to use the sword on your hierarch's waist. If you abandon the peach blossoms and use the sword now, you will only die faster."
Prince Long Qing slowly wiped the blood stains from the corner of his mouth, and looked at her with a faint smile. He said, "I can try."
Suddenly, a strange look appeared in Tang Xiaotang's clear eyes. It wasn't fear, nor was it excitement. Instead, it was as if she had sensed that something strange and vexing was approaching.
"I don't have time to try today. I have something to do and have to go first."
Tang Xiaotang looked at Prince Long Qing and said, "But I have to remind you that this mountain belongs to my family. If I see people from the Divine Hall again, I will kill them one by one."
Prince Long Qing also sensed the aura that was rushing at a high speed from afar. He could not help but frown and felt extremely annoyed. He stared at Tang Xiaotang and said in a low voice, "Do you think you can leave today?"
"For the third time, you said you can't fight."
Tang Xiaotang looked at him and said sympathetically, "The disciples of the Enlightenment Doctrine are best at running. Unless you enter the Knowing Destiny State, how can you catch up with me? Doesn't the Divine Hall teach these things now? "
A very clear voice came from afar, "Tang Xiaotang, don't run if you can."
Hearing that voice, Tang Xiaotang could not help but shiver. She replied angrily in a loud voice, "Ye Hongyu, you crazy woman. Don't be a hooligan if you can!"
Then she turned around and ran with the little white wolf. She ran faster than the wind.
