Because of his injuries, Wu Hua Gongzi's movements were much slower, but there was no old monk to urge him to move.

It was almost dusk on this day. Wuhua, who had worked hard all day, came to the last cave and looked at the mist rising in the mountains without any expression on his face.

"Can't you hold on anymore?"

A faint voice sounded in the cave, which also revealed the old monk's extraordinary status in Mount Sumeru.

Wu Hua said calmly: "Master said that if you want to achieve renunciation, I am not able to understand it right now."

"Then why are you here in the back mountain? Aren't you asking for trouble? The monsters here are more ferocious than the others. How can your body withstand it?"

The sound in the cave became louder, and he said quietly: "Come in, it's cold outside."

Wuhua sighed, turned around and entered the cave, saluted the old monk who fell on the ground, and said, "Uncle Master, how many years have these people been here?"

Since he came to serve these old monks, only the last old monk in the cave was kind to him, while the others were like fierce gods, wanting to slap themselves to the ground.

However, Wu Hua also knew that these old monks were just detached and waiting to pass away, so he vented his anger on himself.

If it weren't for Master's sake, I might have died under this stone wall on the first day.

"I have been here for more than ten years, and the elders here may have been sitting there for hundreds or even thousands of years. There is no sun and moon in the mountains, so it will inevitably become lonely and desolate."

The old monk looked at him and said: "But I don't think your master will let you stay here for long. Soon you will be replaced. It's rare for me to find a young man with whom I can talk."

There are countless such stone walls throughout Mount Sumeru. I don’t know how many old monks have stopped practicing and are sitting here hoping that one day they can understand the secret of heaven.

Wuhua knew some of the secrets involved, but she just wondered if she would be like this one day, and for a moment she looked a little confused.

"Mount Sumeru is the holy land in the hearts of thousands of monks in the world, and the legendary land of gods in the world. However, it turned out to be such simple and even boring caves. Are you a little disappointed?"

The old monk looked at him and smiled and said: "The world only knows that gods are happy, but don't they know that gods will also be troubled by their own detachment?"

Wu Hua shook his head and said: "Since they came here for the purpose, how can we know? To practice facing the sky is to compete with the sky for life, but everyone's struggle is different..."

The old monk looked at him and smiled and said: "You can understand this. Mount Xumi is a place outside the world. You can practice in a palace full of flowers or in this simple cave."

"It can be peaceful or lonely. If one day you can truly realize the great truth, you will naturally understand more truths."

"And our location is only under the thirty-third heaven. If you practice hard, there will be more scenery and higher mountains waiting for you to conquer..."

The old monk's words seemed a bit profound, but Wuhua at least understood some of the truth.

The old monks sitting in these caves are indeed people with broken paths. If they can understand the great road, they can go to a higher level and go to a higher heaven.

It turns out that Mount Sumeru is really an unimaginable place worthy of his lifelong struggle.

"I know very well that the road to spiritual practice is long and difficult, but I just hope that one day I can hear the Tao, or find a legendary magic medicine, and reach a higher realm."

Wuhua remembered something, clasped her hands and asked, "Uncle Master, is it okay if you use medicine to help you practice?"

The old monk's eyes lit up, revealing a gleam of light.

Looking at him, he said: "Is it possible that you are willing to test the medicine with yourself? It should be noted that even a miracle medicine cannot be tried and tested... It is not impossible to become a Buddha with a single thought and become a demon with a single thought."

He was going to ask the old monk in front of him for a magic medicine. In addition to curing the damage those old monks had caused him these days, more importantly, it would allow him to break through to the realm of refining the void as soon as possible.

In other words, he wanted a magic medicine that would allow him to break through to a higher realm overnight.

Pills with such efficacy are naturally very precious. However, his master did not allow him to take such pills, which made him feel extremely painful.

Wu Hua never even imagined that one day he would have the opportunity to try such a magical medicine himself, which would allow him to break through the realm overnight and save him decades, or even centuries, of hard work.

Suddenly, the tension on Wuhua's face was replaced by shock.

Because the old monk who fell to the ground was holding a crystal clear jade bottle in his hand, and a faint medicinal fragrance emanated from the small jade bottle.

He bit his lip hard, allowing himself to wake up for a moment, and stared blankly at the old monk in front of him!

He had never personally experienced such a temptation since he started practicing, and he was about to experience it right now.

The old monk looked at the young monk on Mount Sumeru in front of him, with a trace of compassion, a trace of expectation, and even an inexplicable joy in his eyes.

Because even he did not dare to take the magic medicine in the jade bottle back then.

Just because his master once told him the formula of the magic medicine in the jade bottle, he did not have the courage to face the consequences of taking this medicine.

Because he thought that one day he would be able to realize the Great Dao, transcend this place, and go to the higher realms of the thirty-three heavens.

However, he saw greed, desire, and excitement in Wu Hua's eyes, and he wanted to try to see if a miracle could happen to this guy.

What if it really succeeds? After all, there are still two pills in the jade bottle. He can give it to Wu Hua in front of him to try.

What if this guy can resist his inner demons and succeeds?

Then doesn’t he hope to become the Buddha on Mount Sumeru?

Thinking of this, the old monk looked at Wu Hua and said quietly: "There is a magic medicine here that can help you break through the situation, but I don't know if it will cause you any harm..."

Wu Hua held back her despairing expression and looked at the old monk who said unusually calmly: "Isn't it just a thought to become a demon? I have Master here, even if I become a demon, I can become a Buddha immediately!".

The old monk looked at Wuhua's firm eyes and said with emotion: "Senior brother, your vision is indeed extraordinary, so I will help you. I hope you can defeat your inner demons one day and realize the great truth."

"Thank you so much, uncle, for helping me. I am deeply grateful."

Wuhua knelt in front of the old monk, kowtowed respectfully, and said, "No matter what kind of magic medicine my uncle gave me, I will have no regrets."

The old monk looked happy, poured a black pill into his hand, and said quietly: "My Buddha is merciful, and I hope you can defeat your inner demons one day."

Wuhua took the pill with both hands, looked at it quietly with vertical eyes, and said softly: "Disciple is willing to hear the great truth."

...

In Loulan City, in an elegant manor, the wind and snow on Tianyun Mountain have already blown here.

A middle-aged man who was five feet tall and holding a book in his slender hands with a bookish look on his face was frowning and looking at the men in black in front of him.

The middle-aged man's face showed a strong coldness, and he said calmly: "It's been half a year, no news yet?"

A man in black standing opposite him carefully replied: "Back to the Lord, I have inquired and found out that all eight people we sent out disappeared in Tianhuang Mountain, leaving not even a single clue."

"So, where is that kid from the Chen family? Where is the miracle medicine?" The middle-aged man looked at him and asked coldly: "We have spent so much effort, can't we get nothing?"

"When we got the news and arrived, the entire Tianhuang Mountains were completely deserted. There wasn't a single monk within hundreds of miles. Our subordinates were incompetent." The man in black sighed, lowered his head and replied.

The middle-aged man sighed and said quietly: "Now, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to find her again."

"But we have been observing in the dark for half a year. The Chen family is also looking for their missing boy. Has he also disappeared on Tianhuang Mountain?"

The man in black with his head lowered continued. After all, in his opinion, if the guy hadn't had an accident, he would have gone home as soon as possible.

"As long as the Ten Thousand Years Miracle Medicine doesn't appear, no one will know the truth. Just let it go. If I really can't find it, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, it's been more than half a year..."

The middle-aged man did not get angry. He sighed and waved his hand to let the man in black leave.

The man in black quickly apologized and turned around to leave.

Looking down at the book in his hand, the middle-aged man murmured: "As long as you are still in Loulan, you can't escape from the palm of my hand. But, will you stay here?"

I am afraid that even if Li Xiuyuan were here, he would not have thought that the master of the black-clad assassin who assassinated Chen Mengsheng and later wanted to kill him was actually in Loulan City.

...

Tianyun Mountain, in the abyss under the Bamboo Peak.

After some exploration and killing, Li Xiuyuan has stayed here for a day and a night.

During this day and night, he killed countless zombies and suffered several injuries on his body. Right now, he just wanted to find a safe place.

Being in a dark place, I found a corner here with the help of two formation disks and spent the night safely.

He even used the Phoenix Fire to brew a pot of spiritual tea and ate two meals of solid food anxiously under the abyss.

The ghostly mist in the air was mixed with a trace of evil spirit, which made him feel uneasy. The evil spirit here was the same as that on Tianhuang Mountain, which made him feel fearful and even a little panicked.

And these fogs and evil spirits are the nutrients for zombies.

Fortunately, the evil spirit here is not as strong as on Tianhuang Mountain, otherwise he would not be able to hold on for long and would fall here.

Now he finally believed why Wang Qiang and Ping An were so shocked when they saw him for the first time. It turned out that no one really dared to spend the night halfway up Tianhuang Mountain.

Because of the strong evil spirit there, it can kill people if they are not careful.

And the fact that he was able to survive on Tianhuang Mountain by chance was probably because of his divine dragon body, otherwise he would have been like Chen Mengsheng on the top of the mountain.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but take a deep breath, thinking that I had escaped from death again and again.

After filling my stomach, I continued to move forward. I used my consciousness to look around and sensed the zombies hiding around.

Some of the zombies sensed are far away, and some are very close, and the zombies that are close have smelled his breath.

Under the layers of abyss, the zombies on the first level were already extremely ferocious. He believed that the zombies would become more powerful as he went down. He did not want to go to the second level to die before he was sure enough.

"This damn place doesn't even have a place to escape." Holding the Samsara Sword, Li Xiuyuan said to himself.

He didn't know how many layers there were in the abyss here. There were probably thousands of zombies on each layer. At the speed he was going, just one layer would keep him busy for a long time.

But was the abyss here built artificially or naturally? Even Meng Shentong didn't tell him this.

Just from the restrictions here, he could feel the wisdom of the sages from thousands of years ago, which he had to admire.

Sensing the sound of approaching footsteps not far away from him, Li Xiuyuan was a little nervous for a moment. Thinking about the tough battle he was about to face, he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the long sword in his hand.

He also knew that hiding blindly was not enough. After feeling that the zombies were not far away from him, he drew out his Samsara Sword, looked at the zombies rushing in front of him, and rushed forward.

Ouch! The zombies finally discovered the blood food and roared with excitement, calling their companions to come quickly...

Li Xiuyuan shouted loudly: "I will fight with you!"
