Three days later, on a mountain in the Buyun Sect's Main Hall. This was the tallest mountain in the Buyun Sect's Main Hall. This mountain was very strange, it looked like a pillar. However, this pillar had a ladder carved out of it. This ladder led to the top of the mountain. One side was a cliff, while the other side was a cliff. The entire path was less than a meter wide. A timid person would faint from fright upon seeing this path, not to mention going up.
The most troublesome part of this path was that the spiritual qi of everyone who went up would be sealed. You can only go up step by step. Moreover, there would be some hallucinations on this path. Those with weak willpower wouldn't be able to go up more than ten steps before falling into hallucinations. The last part of the path was called the True Heart Path. People would also fall into hallucinations and unconsciously speak the truth. This was the most terrifying part. The Buyun Sect used this path to find countless spies. Almost none of the spies were able to safely pass through this path.
The Non-Yun Sect's disciples weren't allowed to come here without permission. This wasn't because the Non-Yun Sect didn't want to cultivate their disciples. On the contrary, they didn't allow them to come here in order to protect their disciples. The mountain on the Path of Refining Heart was said to be a strange stone. People who went up there would automatically be hallucinations. Moreover, as long as one was below the Teleportation Realm, their spiritual qi would automatically be sealed. Unless one's cultivation was above the Teleportation Realm, even Teleportation Realm cultivators wouldn't be spared.
At this time, there were a few people standing at the foot of the Path of Refining Heart. To be exact, there were four people. One of them was Elder Guo who brought Zhao Hai to the Non-Yun Sect. The other one was the Inner Sect Elder who informed Zhao Hai that the assessment would be three days later. Zhao Hai already knew the name of this Inner Sect Elder. His surname was Wan and his name was Wan Feng. He was an Inner Sect Elder with a high position in the Law Enforcement Hall.
As for the other two, one was Zhao Hai and the other was Zhou Feng. This fatty heard that Zhao Hai was going to the Path of Refining Heart, so he followed along. He also passed the assessment, but unfortunately, he didn't reach the top. He fell into an illusion and failed in the end.
His failure didn't affect his status. After all, he was only halfway through. This was already very difficult. Because of this, he became an Inner Sect Disciple.
Wan Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Zhao Ling, go up. As long as you can reach the top, you will pass the assessment. Remember, once you reach the top, your spiritual qi will be sealed." Zhao Hai nodded.
Zhou Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother, be careful. This path is a bit strange. After you fall into an illusion, you would unconsciously reveal your inner thoughts, including your secrets. Although the true path is at the top of the mountain, this path can move at any time. As long as you fall into an illusion, you would unconsciously reveal your secrets. I told you that I obtained the Divine Elephant King Physique in this place." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Brother, you should be careful. This path is very strange. After you fall into an illusion, you would unconsciously reveal your secrets.
Zhao Hai nodded to Zhou Feng and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhou. Rest assured, I'll be careful." Zhou Feng nodded. Zhao Hai then gave Wan Feng and Elder Guo a salute. Then he took a deep breath and stepped on the stone steps of the Path of Refining Heart.
Upon stepping on the Path of Refining Heart, Zhao Hai felt that his spiritual qi was unable to circulate. Zhao Hai stared, he didn't think that this place would be so strange. But soon, Zhao Hai discovered that it wasn't that his spiritual qi was unable to circulate. Instead, it seemed to be suppressed by something. The speed of circulation became very slow, almost imperceptible.
Zhao Hai didn't care, his other foot also stepped on the Path of Refining Heart. When both of his feet were on the Path of Refining Heart, Zhao Hai felt that the scenery in front of him changed. He seemed to have arrived at the edge of a cliff. There were howling winds all around him. He felt as if he would fall off the cliff at any time.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly. His eyes narrowed as he released his spiritual force. The illusion in front of him immediately disappeared. He found that he was still standing on the Path of Refining Heart. Zhao Hai smiled faintly as he released his spiritual force and formed a spiritual force shield. Then he went straight up the mountain.
Along the way, Zhao Hai felt that the spiritual force attacking him was getting stronger and stronger. His spiritual force shield couldn't hold on any longer. However, Zhao Hai wasn't worried. It was almost impossible for the spiritual force to attack his spiritual world.
Zhao Hai counted the steps one by one. When he reached 999 steps, he suddenly felt a huge pressure around him. Of course, this didn't mean that the pressure on his body was huge, but the pressure on his mind was huge. Zhao Hai was surprised, he couldn't help but look up. He discovered that he was still very far from the top, he had only walked one-tenth of the way.
Wan Feng looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, "His speed is very fast, it seems like his spiritual force is very strong. But this is just the beginning. The Path of Tempering Heart is divided into ten layers, the first layer has 999 steps. Every time you go up a layer, the illusions will double. There are very few people who can reach the end of the Path of Tempering Heart on their first try. The best result of the Path of Tempering Heart was five times, the 16th Sect Master of our sect. Later on, he became a Void Piercing expert. I read his notes, it clearly states that the first five layers of the Path of Tempering Heart can be passed with spiritual force. But after the fifth layer, spiritual force becomes useless, and one can only rely on one's willpower. If one's willpower isn't strong enough, one would immediately fall into the endless illusions. He was only able to pass the fifth layer because he was accustomed to the changes in the illusions and was fully prepared. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to pass the Path of Tempering Heart."
When Elder Guo heard Wan Feng, he couldn't help but be surprised, "So it's impossible for Zhao Ling to pass the Path of Refining Heart on his first try? Then doesn't that mean that he won't be able to enter the Inner Court of the Oyun Sect? Wouldn't that be a waste of time? "
Wan Feng smiled faintly and said, "How could the Sect waste so much time? As long as Zhao Ling can reach the fifth level, then he can enter the Inner Court. If he can reach the seventh level, then he'll become a True Disciple. If he can reach the ninth level, then he'll become a Core Disciple of the Oyun Sect. Haha, don't forget that there's still a year before he can enter the Devil Blood Boundary. How could the Sect let him waste his time here?"
When Elder Guo heard Wan Feng, he was startled. He didn't think that the Sect would place such importance on Zhao Hai. He became a True Disciple on the seventh level and a Core Disciple on the ninth level. A Core Disciple, ah. In a Great Sect like the Oyun Sect, a Core Disciple's authority was much greater than an ordinary disciple. It can be said that every Core Disciple was the pride of the Sect. They can represent the Sect when they go out. How could such a person have a low status in the Sect? The Core Disciples of the Oyun Sect were all experts at the Teleportation Realm or above. Some of them were even at the Vajra Stage. If Zhao Hai can become a Core Disciple of the Oyun Sect, then he would have created a new record.
When the two were talking, they didn't deliberately lower their voices. Therefore, Zhou Feng could clearly hear what they were talking about. Zhou Feng couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He was very clear about what Wan Feng meant. These words represented the importance that the Oyun Sect placed on Zhao Hai. From the two's words, it can be seen that the Oyun Sect valued Zhao Hai more than anyone else.
For Zhou Feng, this was definitely good news. The higher Zhao Hai's status, the better it would be for him and the Zhou Clan. Zhou Feng felt that he didn't make a wrong friend this time.
Zhao Hai was still walking up step by step. His body was strong, so he wasn't afraid of walking. However, the consumption of spiritual force was also very large. This made Zhao Hai frown.
It didn't take long for Zhao Hai to reach the fifth floor. Upon reaching the fifth floor, Zhao Hai felt the pressure on his spiritual force increase. Even the Rubik's Cube in his mind started to slow down.
At this time, Zhao Hai felt that the Five Elements Killing Formation in his mind suddenly moved. The Five Elements Killing Formation fiercely expanded and firmly protected his spiritual force. Zhao Hai suddenly felt the pressure on him lighten.
This made Zhao Hai stare for a moment. To be honest, he sometimes forgot about the existence of the Five Elements Killing Formation. This was because this formation seemed to be useless. It always stayed in his mind, but it rarely encountered spiritual force attacks. Therefore, the Five Elements Killing Formation had never been activated. Zhao Hai didn't expect that the Five Elements Killing Formation would suddenly move.
Zhao Hai thought that the Five Elements Killing Formation wouldn't be able to block spiritual force attacks. After all, spiritual force didn't belong to any of the five elements. However, Zhao Hai discovered that this wasn't the case. The Five Elements Killing Formation wasn't only able to block the five elements. The Five Elements Killing Formation was originally meant to protect the Hundred Spirits Tree. The Hundred Spirits Clan valued the Hundred Spirits Tree to such an extent. How could they only place a formation that could block the Five Elements Killing Formation? Wouldn't it be too easy to break?
After the Five Elements Killing Formation absorbed enough energy, it wasn't just used to block the power of the five elements. Because of this, it was able to block Zhao Hai's attacks, whether it was spiritual attacks or spiritual qi attacks, it was all the same.
The activation of the Five Elements Killing Formation was definitely good news for Zhao Hai. This allowed him to easily pass through the fifth floor and directly enter the sixth floor.
However, as soon as Zhao Hai entered the sixth floor, he was stunned. This was because he felt that there was no spiritual force attacking him. Instead, it had turned into another kind of strange energy. This energy didn't seem to have any malice towards him. Therefore, the Five Elements Killing Formation didn't react to this energy at all. This energy entered his mind.
Zhao Hai suddenly felt that he was awake. He looked around and found himself in a room that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him. This room was his room back on Earth. He was now sitting in front of a computer that he was familiar with. On the computer was a novel that he liked to read.
Zhao Hai stared for a moment before he gently shook his head. Then he looked around and discovered that everything was real. He touched the computer on his desk and saw that it was still running. There was nothing special about it.
Zhao Hai couldn't help but shake his head. Then he smiled bitterly and said, "So it was just a dream. This dream is really interesting. Right, this is a good subject for a novel. If I can write about it, it would definitely be good."
Just as Zhao was about to start writing, he suddenly froze. This was because he felt a burst of pain in his heart. It was as if he had lost something important. Then he heard a voice calling out to him. The voice was very clear, it was the voice of a woman. It was Laura and the others' voices.
Zhao Hai frowned, then he coldly snorted and said, "Good illusion. But if you want to trap me, then you're dreaming!" Zhao Hai closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was still on Tempering Heart Road. However, he was about to fall off the road.
Zhao Hai took a deep breath and muttered, "This power isn't spiritual force, but it can make people fall into an illusion. What kind of power is this? The Space will immediately analyze this power. "
A prompt was heard from the Space, "Unknown energy detected. Unknown energy, no energy detected. No hostility. This energy can only test one's willpower. Absorbing and analyzing energy. Energy grade is too high, unable to be analyzed. Host can use this energy. If you want to understand other types of energy, please upgrade."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and muttered, "Interesting, it's really something good. The Space actually couldn't analyze it. But this isn't a big deal. Laura, thank you." Zhao Hai said the last sentence to Laura and the others. When Zhao Hai fell into the illusion, Laura and the others immediately felt it. Laura and the others felt that their connection with Zhao Hai had been cut off. They were startled and immediately called out to Zhao Hai. This was also the reason why Zhao Hai felt heartache when he fell into the illusion and heard Laura and the others calling out to him.
It was precisely because of Laura and the others that Zhao Hai was able to wake up quickly. He knew that he had fallen into an illusion because the illusion was too real. But after this incident, Zhao Hai finally understood that the world he was in now was the real world. This made his will even more tenacious. Zhao Hai didn't know what to do next. Instead, Zhao Hai felt that the world he was in now was the real world.
When Zhao Hai stopped at the 6th floor and started to walk along the path, Wan Feng and the others became nervous. They were very clear that those who entered the path for the first time would suffer losses. Almost everyone who entered the path for the first time would fall here. And looking at Zhao Hai's situation, it was also very dangerous.
But at this time, they suddenly saw Zhao Hai stop. Then he opened his eyes and walked towards a safe place on the path. After standing there for a while, he started to walk again. Wan Feng and the others weren't surprised, then their eyes lit up. They knew what this meant. This meant that Zhao Hai had passed through this level. This meant that his willpower was very strong. This meant that he was able to overcome his illusion and set out again.
