With a Dao Heart, Pierce Through Delusion; the Vast Holy Mountain

"He only used one move, the Sword Finger..."

Taoist Mo Xuan placed his hand on the space between Li Motian's eyebrows, then his finger twitched slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"What formidable Sword Intent! Could the one who saved you be some peerless genius from Sword Cultivator sect?"

"This disciple did not know that Fellow Daoist Chen was not only skilled in swordsmanship."

He was equally accomplished in medicine, truly a master of both swordsmanship and medicine.

The disciple was already on the verge of death, with most of his body already on the verge of Yellow Springs.

But he managed to save her, and in a short time, her injuries were completely healed without leaving any lasting damage.

The same was true for Junior Brother Zi Xiao and the others; their Meridians and Acupoints, and internal organs were all corroded by Demonic Qi.

Even the Jade Dew Revival Pill was ineffective, and the patient was in imminent danger.

They were all saved by Fellow Daoist Chen using his Golden Needle Technique.

When Lu Qing's medical skills were mentioned, Senior Sister Ye's face was still full of amazement.

She knew all too well just how serious her injuries were at the time.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they had already stepped into the Gates of Hell.

Even so, Lu Qing managed to save them in a short time.

She estimated that, given the extent of her injuries at the time, even if she returned to the sect and received her master's help, she might not recover so quickly.

Thinking of this, Senior Sister Ye asked again, "Master, you are knowledgeable and experienced, can you guess Daoist Chen Chen's lineage?"

"What, didn't the Strange Person who saved you tell you?"

"Daoist Chen said that his master had ordered him not to reveal his origins at will."

"I see."

Taoist Mo Xuan seemed to be deep in thought and began to ponder.

However, after thinking for a while, he shook his head.

"In our Tian Yuan Great World, there are quite a few powerful sects that excel in alchemy and medicine."

There are countless sects with astonishing swordsmanship traditions.

However, there are not many people who are good at both.

"And among the sects I know of, it seems none of them possess this prodigy you encountered."

"Even Master doesn't know? Is it possible that this Daoist Chen came from the outside world to our Tian Yuan Great World for training?" Senior Sister Ye continued to ask.

"That's possible," Taoist Mo Xuan nodded. "However, our Tian Yuan Great World is vast and boundless, and there are quite a few hidden forces lurking in the shadows."

Some powerful Nascent Soul Great Power cultivators are independent practitioners who never concern themselves with worldly affairs and only focus on their cultivation.

The person you met might even be from there.

Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Ye was somewhat disappointed.

She understood that finding out Lu Qing's background would be extremely difficult.

Seeing her like this, Taoist Mo Xuan laughed.

"Why bother with such concerns? Since that Strange Person doesn't want to reveal his identity and origins, he must have his reasons."

If you are destined to meet again, you will surely meet one day.

"Master, what are you saying? What do you mean by fate or not?"

Senior Sister Ye's face inexplicably flushed.

Taoist Mo Xuan smiled but said nothing more.

He was an experienced man, having lived for so many years and seen it all; how could he not see through his beloved disciple's thoughts at this moment?

However, he knew his disciple's temperament and did not tease him excessively.

Otherwise, she might get angry.

Senior Sister Ye blushed for a while, but seeing that her master was no longer teasing her, she gradually calmed down.

Thinking of something else, she asked, "Master, how much do you know about Eldest Brother Qian Lingxiao?"

"Lingxiao, why would you suddenly ask such a question?" Taoist Mo Xuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

"That's right. Junior Brother Zi Xiao and the others said that Li Motian once explained why he defected to the Demon Clan and fell into the demonic path."

Senior Sister Ye recounted what Li Motian had said to the purple-clad youth and the others.

"Such a thing is true."

Taoist Mo Xuan pondered for a moment.

"It's hard to tell whether this is true or false. Perhaps Li Motian is deliberately slandering Ling Xiao to sow discord and use psychological tactics."

"But at that time, Junior Brother Zi Xiao and the others were no match for Li Motian at all. Was it necessary for him to go through all this trouble?"

"Demonic Cultivator are always treacherous and cunning, and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. They cannot be judged by ordinary people's thinking."

Perhaps Li Motian are not merely to undermine your defenses, but also have other purposes.

Look at you now, haven't you started to doubt your Eldest Brother?

Taoist Mo Xuan laughed.

Senior Sister Ye fell silent.

She suddenly realized that her master was right.

Perhaps this was the effect Li Motian wanted at the time.

Just in case, even if something unexpected happens and they manage to escape, they will still have doubts about their Eldest Brother and the sect.

At least now, she's starting to waver.

"Master, does that mean Li Motian was lying and slandering Eldest Brother?" Senior Sister Ye asked.

"I can't be sure about that either."

However, Taoist Mo Xuan's answer surprised him once again.

Senior Sister Ye was taken aback. "But Master, didn't you say..."

"What I mean is that I want you to observe and think more for yourself, and not be easily influenced by what others say."

All appearances are potentially illusory.

Whether it's Li Motian or your Eldest Brother.

What you usually see is only the side they want to present to others, not their whole story.

Everything in the world is complex and diverse, a mixture of reality and illusion, making it difficult to discern the truth.

Even what you see and hear yourself may not be the truth.

Just as Demonic Cultivator are often cunning and treacherous, that doesn't mean that what Li Motian said is necessarily false.

I wasn't there at the time, so I can't make such a definitive statement as to whether he was lying.

Taoist Mo Xuan's words completely confused Senior Sister Ye.

"Master, if the world is so complicated and difficult to discern, how can we understand the truth and distinguish right from wrong?"

"Use your Dao Heart." Taoist Mo Xuan pointed to the figure in front of Senior Sister Ye. "All things in the world may be illusory."

But only the Dao Heart of us cultivators can be persevered through countless setbacks and constantly tempered.

If you encounter something uncertain in the future, ask yourself what you truly believe.

In the path of spiritual practice, only by upholding one's true nature can one achieve clear thinking and make vigorous progress.

As long as you stay true to your original intention Dao Heart.

So even if everything in the world is false and complex.

They will surely be able to see through illusions and reach the truth.

Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Ye's body trembled violently.

He murmured, "Should I uphold my true self and use the Dao Heart to see through illusion?"

Seeing his disciple lost in thought, Taoist Mo Xuan sat there quietly, saying nothing more, letting him comprehend it on his own.

Although his disciple had exceptional talent for cultivation.

Not only was it High Grade Golden Core, but it also reached the fifth stage of cultivation.

However, she is too straightforward and easily misled.

This time, they were easily lured outside by Li Motian and almost died.

He hoped that she would change after going through this extremely difficult time.

If one can strengthen one's resolve in the Dao Heart because of this, achieving the Primordial Spirit in the future will no longer be a pipe dream, but a certainty.

"Use the Dao Heart to see through illusion..."

Senior Sister Ye kept repeating this sentence to herself, and a light gradually appeared in her eyes.

Finally, he raised his head, already having understood. "Master, I understand."

"Good that you understand."

Taoist Mo Xuan did not inquire what his beloved disciple had comprehended, but simply nodded with pleasure.

"If you remember this insight and persevere in it, putting knowledge into practice, then in the near future, you can expect to achieve the Dao of the Primordial Spirit."

"Thank you for your guidance, Master."

Senior Sister Ye bowed deeply to her master, her eyes filled with a serene and peaceful expression.

On her way back, she thought about many things, especially about Li Motian and her Eldest Brother, which made her feel inexplicably uneasy.

However, after her master's guidance, she felt much more at ease.

Regardless of Li Motian's situation or any hidden secrets, as long as she stays true to herself, there's nothing to fear.

Seeing the determination in his beloved disciple's eyes, Taoist Mo Xuan was even more satisfied.

He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you can leave Li Motian's corpse here. Leave the rest to me. Don't worry about it anymore."

"Yes, Master," Senior Sister Ye replied.

"As for your Eldest Brother, you don't need to ask. I heard that he recently went to the Tian Shu Continent and won't be returning to the sect for a while."

"Eldest Brother went to the Tian Shu Continent?" Senior Sister Ye looked surprised.

Tian Shu Continent is not exactly close to their Universe Sect.

"Indeed, I've heard that the Tian Shu Tian Shu Holy Mountain Tian Shu Continent has been showing unusual activity lately, and it seems that a new Secret Realm is about to be born."

Many sects, powerful families, and elite clans have sent their most talented disciples to the Tian Shu Continent.

If a new Secret Realm does appear, it will be good to prepare in advance and get a share of the spoils.

Our Universe Sect was led there by your Eldest Brother, along with a group of Inner Sect Disciple.

Is a new Secret Realm about to appear on Tian Shu Holy Mountain?

Hearing this, Senior Sister Ye was even more shocked.

What is Tian Shu Holy Mountain?

That is one of the most vast, majestic, and mysterious sacred mountains in the Tian Yuan Great World.

Every unusual movement can trigger the nerves of countless sects and forces.

If what Master said is true, it's not hard to imagine that it won't be long before that place becomes a place of great upheaval.

"This news has been circulating for several days now," Taoist Mo Xuan.

"Originally, I was thinking that after you came back, I would also go there to see if I could stumble upon some divine opportunities."

But you've just recovered from your injuries, so you should go into seclusion and focus on restoring your health first.

If we wait until you've fully recovered, that Secret Realm won't have appeared yet, and it will be too late to get there then.

"Yes," Senior Sister Ye replied.

At the same time, I felt a little excited.

The strange movements at Tian Shu Holy Mountain will likely draw the attention of half of the cultivation prodigies of the Tian Yuan Great World.

When the time comes, many outstanding talents will compete for opportunities, making it an incredibly exciting event.

Just thinking about it made her feel excited.

She even wondered if Daoist Chen might also be there amidst such a grand occasion.

Thinking of this, Senior Sister Ye wished she could immediately go into seclusion.

Make sure you fully recover before heading to the Tian Shu Continent, so you don't miss out on this magnificent sight.

Watching his beloved disciple's departing figure, Taoist Mo Xuan's gaze fell on Li Motian's corpse, and his expression turned serious.

After pondering for a while, he collected Li Motian's corpse, and his body suddenly transformed into a stream of light, flying towards the back mountain of the sect.

"A Qing, is Tian Shu Continent just ahead?"

In the sky, Lu Qing floated above the clouds, while Xiao Li stood on his shoulder.

It stared wide-eyed at the towering, boundless mountain in front of it, its peak completely out of sight.

"That should be it. This Tian Shu Continent is named after Tian Shu Holy Mountain."

That majestic mountain ahead must be the legendary Tian Shu Holy Mountain.

Looking at the enormous mountain in front of him, Lu Qing's eyes also showed amazement.

Before he came, he had already imagined the magnificence of this sacred mountain.

But when he actually saw it, he was still shocked.

Even from such a great distance, the Tian Shu Holy Mountain already exudes such a powerful awe.

I can't even imagine how vast its power will be when we get really close.

He once thought that the Holy Mountain in his Home World was already enormous enough.

But compared to the Tian Shu Holy Mountain in this Tian Yuan Great World, it really is no different from a small hill.

After all, the part of the Tian Shu Holy Mountain that has been revealed is already larger than the entire Home World.

Lu Qing and Xiao Li stood on the clouds, gazing at the vast and boundless Tian Shu Holy Mountain for a long time without saying a word.

During this process, Lu Qing even tried to activate his Supernatural Ability and look towards the sacred mountain, hoping to find out some information.

He stared for a long time, but nothing changed in his field of vision; no note appeared.

He immediately realized that this was probably because the rank of Tian Shu Holy Mountain was too high.

With his current strength, he is not yet able to see through the information of such an existence.

Just like back in his Home World, he tried to use his Supernatural Ability to explore the sun and moon, but he still failed to obtain the message on the note.

In this way, Lu Qing also understood that this Tian Shu Holy Mountain was probably an extremely important part of the Tian Yuan Great World.

"Xiao Li, let's go."

After calming himself down, Lu Qing used his movement technique, transforming into a stream of light and continuing to fly forward.

Although the Tian Shu Holy Mountain may seem to be right in front of you, it is actually just an illusion caused by the sheer size of the mountain itself.

In reality, Lu Qing and his group were still a very long distance from the sacred mountain.

After all, given the vastness of the Tian Yuan Great World, the area of just one Tian Shu Continent is already larger than hundreds or thousands of Home World combined.

Therefore, Lu Qing still needs to travel for some time before he can truly reach Tian Shu Holy Mountain.

However, Lu Qing wasn't in a hurry, since he didn't have anything else important to do anyway.

Flying slowly like this, enjoying the scenery below while continuing on our journey is perfectly fine.

If you're in too much of a hurry, you might run into some serious trouble.

As Lu Qing leisurely traveled for several days, the Tian Shu Holy Mountain ahead remained as vast and unchanged as ever.

It was as if he had been flying for so long, yet he was still standing still.

But Lu Qing knew that this was also an illusion.

He had indeed been getting closer to the Tian Shu Holy Mountain, but because the mountain was so large and the distance so great, it seemed as if he wasn't getting any closer.

Just as Lu Qing was patiently making his way, he suddenly heard a call.

"Fellow Daoist in front, please wait a moment."
