If it is true as Kong Huan said that the holy mountain before them is a treasure, then the super power that once possessed this treasure must be so huge that it is simply unimaginable.
"It's a pity that the Holy Mountain has already been refined into one with this small marshland. If we can bring the Holy Mountain out of the small marshland, we may be able to crack the secret of the Holy Mountain."
Kong Huan said, shaking his head and smiling.
"But this is impossible. As time goes by, the Ozawa Realm will only become more and more unstable, and in the end it will completely collapse. Everything in it will disappear into the void and turn into dust."
Xu Chunniang seemed to be deep in thought. What Kong Huan said were things she had never known before. They were common sense for inner disciples, but they were things that many outer disciples would never know in their entire lives.
After enough rest, Kong Huan's eyes showed determination again. Regardless of the dark sky, he prepared to climb the mountain again.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I am going to continue climbing the Holy Mountain. Do you want to come with me?"
Xu Chunniang thought for a moment and said, "Can I watch you climb the mountain first?"
"Of course you can. But you can't tell what it is just looking at it like that."
Kong Huan said this with a smile and began to walk towards the holy mountain.
At the beginning, he was very fast and took six or seven steps at a time. But as he went on, his speed became slower and slower, and it took him a long time to take one step.
After taking fourteen or fifteen steps, Kong Huan's feet seemed to be nailed to the mountain and he couldn't move for a long time.
After a long time, he tried to take a step, but he stepped on empty air, lost his balance, and fell down the mountain.
Fortunately, Kong Huan was not in a high position, and he adjusted his posture in time in the air, so he was not injured after falling.
He patted the dirt off his body and said in annoyance, "I failed again. Sigh. I have failed five or six times here. I thought I would succeed this time. I am so embarrassed to let Fellow Daoist Xu laugh at me."
Xu Chunniang shook her head. "It's not easy for Friend Kong to take fifteen steps. Maybe I'm not as good as you."
Kong Huan smiled slightly, with a smug look on his face.
At the beginning, he couldn't even take three steps. Now that he has made such amazing progress, he is already very satisfied.
If this trend continues, maybe I can gain the recognition of the Holy Mountain and obtain the treasure before leaving Xiaoze Territory.
As the night deepened, the two stopped talking and sat at a distance, meditating and resting.
Early the next morning, Kong Huan said hello to Xu Chunniang and started climbing the mountain again.
Just like yesterday, he started out very fast, but when he reached the place where he fell yesterday, Kong Huan stopped and was reluctant to take that step.
Xu Chunniang withdrew her gaze and, without wasting any more time, prepared to go up the mountain from another direction.
She took a deep breath, lifted her right foot and took the first step.
Suddenly, a strong sense of resistance came from under her feet, as if it would knock her over at any time.
As time went by, this resistance not only did not subside, but instead became stronger.
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly, stared at the pressure and took the second step.
The moment her left foot stepped on the Holy Mountain, the resistance from the Holy Mountain doubled.
At the same time, the ordinary holy mountain in front of them suddenly changed its momentum and became tall and majestic in an instant, making people feel that it was unclimbable.
When Xu Chunniang looked up, she saw endless mountains towering into the clouds.
And she was in this mountain, just like a blade of grass or an ant on this huge mountain, tiny.
Looking down, there is nothing different. Just take a step or two back and you can leave the holy mountain.
She finally understood why everyone said that the Holy Mountain was difficult to climb.
It was already very difficult just to keep his body steady and not be forced out by the resistance, let alone reach the top of the holy mountain.
Xu Chunniang felt as if her body was about to fall, and was afraid that if she took another step, she would be immediately pushed down the mountain by the resistance force.
She finally understood why Kong Huan would pause for a long time after each step he took.
As time went by, the body seemed to slowly adapt to this resistance and no longer felt like it would be pushed off the mountain at any time.
Xu Chunniang tried to take another step forward.
The moment she took another step, the resistance exerted on her increased again.
Her body swayed and she nearly fell off the mountain. She managed to stand firmly and dared not move.
Time passed bit by bit, and this time it took longer for the body to adapt to the force of resistance.
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly and did not take the fourth step. Instead, she looked up towards the top of the holy mountain.
To reach the top, I don’t know how many tens of thousands of steps I have to take. At this speed, I may never reach the top in my lifetime.
No wonder everyone says the Holy Mountain is difficult to climb. Only after experiencing it yourself will you know how difficult it is.
Xu Chunniang finally took the fourth step, but this time she was pushed out by the resistance force before she could stand firmly.
Fortunately, she only took a few steps, and the height was not enough to cause her to fall.
Xu Chunniang stood at the foot of the holy mountain, feeling a little frustrated.
The holy mountain in front of you, which seems not high, is really eye-catching.
Not long after she fell, Kong Huan took sixteen steps, and when he tried the seventeenth step, he fell off the mountain.
Kong Huan showed a look of joy on his face, "I finally succeeded this time, and I have made another step forward!"
"Congratulations, Brother Kong. It's not easy to take so many steps." Xu Chunniang said sincerely.
"Haha, as long as you practice more, you can climb higher and higher." Kong Huan was in a good mood. "By the way, I saw that Fellow Daoist Xu also went up the Holy Mountain. How is it?"
Xu Chunniang spoke truthfully, "I took three steps in total, and when I took the fourth step, I fell down."
"You can take three steps on your first visit to the Holy Mountain. You are much better than me." Kong Huan showed surprise on his face. "In time, Brother Xu may surpass me and get the treasure of the Holy Mountain."
"Treasure from the Holy Mountain?" Xu Chunniang's expression changed.
"Yeah, you don't even know this, do you?"
Kong Huan looked at her in surprise.
Xu Chunniang hesitated and said, "I have heard that there are countless treasures in the Holy Mountain, but after arriving at the Holy Mountain, it seems that I have seen nothing."
Kong Huan slapped his head and said, "I forgot that you are an outer sect disciple. It is understandable that you don't know these things. I said yesterday that the Holy Mountain is a treasure, so there will naturally be no spiritual objects or herbs on the mountain.
The so-called treasure of the Holy Mountain, as long as you get the approval of the Holy Mountain Spirit, you can get the treasure it bestows. These treasures are good and bad, but the products of the Holy Mountain are always high-quality and not bad at all. "
"Soul of the Holy Mountain?"
Kong Huan thought for a moment and changed his words.
"It's equivalent to the spirit of a spiritual weapon, but this one is more advanced."
Xu Chunniang showed surprise on her face. Even the spiritual weapons of the Jindan elders did not have weapon spirits, but in the holy mountain before her, there was an existence that was higher than the weapon spirit level.
She came back to her senses and looked at the holy mountain in front of her. "Then how can I gain the recognition of the spirit of the holy mountain?"
