Wei Huo thrust his sword at the woman’s glabella. The sword carried the aura of nirvanic extermination and headed straight for the woman’s glabella. He could definitely kill her as long as he stabbed her.

However, at that critical moment, Wei Huo stopped. The tip of the Cold Light Sword stopped at the woman’s glabella and almost pierced her.

Wei Huo had stopped because he had seen the woman’s expression.

“This is just a mark left in my subconscious. It’s not really a person from my previous life,” Wei Huo said.

However, the woman said, “Dao begets One, One begets Two, Two begets Three. Everything in the world is connected. The returning point is also the same ‘One’. Although it’s a brand in the hearts of others, it has countless connections with the original owner. If you don’t kill me, you will meet her sooner or later.”

Wei Huo frowned. The woman’s words were too mysterious. They involved secrets of the soul.

Some people often dreamed of a person and thought that they were their dream lover. They believed that it was fake, but one day, they saw the same person in reality. This was not rare.

Wei Huo thought about it for a moment and said something confusing. “I’m not him. I’m me. My previous life has nothing to do with me. My next life is very far away from me. I should jump out and become an independent version of myself. That way, I won’t lose my intelligence or get reincarnated.”

The golden armor was confused when it saw Wei Huo’s deep enlightenment. It wanted to understand, but it could not. It did not know what it was missing. However, in the end, it realized that it was brainless compared to humans.

“One has to use one’s brain to comprehend the Dao!” The golden armor sighed. It was fine if it did not have legs, but it would be too painful if it did not have a brain.

Wei Huo slashed with his sword and cut through time and space. His realm had improved again. A casual swing of his sword could cut through time and space.

Moments later, Wei Huo understood that this was not because he had the power to cut through time and space. It was because the fifth level was similar to a dream. Appearances came from the heart, and everything around him was a subconscious manifestation. At that moment, he realized that he was dreaming, so the dream was about to be over.

“Without the birth of a single thought, no other thought is produced.”

Without any thoughts, he entered the state of True Silence. There was nothing in his heart. This was the state necessary to refine Qi into God.

Why did one have to possess great courage and perseverance to cultivate? One had to possess great courage and perseverance to sever one’s thoughts and enter a state of no thoughts? Cultivators said that meditating was like a jade elephant crossing a river. One had to sever one’s thoughts and achieve True Silence by oneself.

The fifth level was a Magical Mirror. It reflected Wei Huo’s heart and his past life. He had to use his courage to cut everything in order to shatter the Magical Mirror and return to the True Self Realm.

Wei Huo suddenly understood that he had made a mistake by using violence to clear the first three levels. In fact, the ninth level of Kunlun Mountain was not dangerous. Even an ordinary person could understand it layer by layer.

The person who created the nine-level checkpoint actually came up with such an idea to leave behind Daoism. It’s really not simple!

Appearances came from the heart, and Wei Huo now understood everything. The fifth level gradually melted, and Wei Huo slowly rose into the air. He was not flying up himself, but a force was pulling him up.

Wei Huo felt like he was at the bottom of the sea. At the moment, he was floating toward the surface of the sea. Soon, he saw a gigantic iceberg.

There was a huge iceberg under the sea. It was extremely big, and its height far exceeded the highest peak in the world. Its body was also extremely huge, and it was even larger than the biggest mountain in the world. Wei Huo gradually floated up until the entire image appeared. On the surface of the sea was a small iceberg. It was hundreds of meters tall and tens of meters wide. It looked extremely ordinary, but no one could imagine how huge the iceberg hidden under the sea was.
