viding a safe and supportive environment for your students. It means removing any obstacles in their way and allowing them to flourish and grow!"Therefore, I have no intention of becoming enemies wit...Among the five disciples of Wudao, the only woman slowly stepped forward. Her blue robe fluttered gracefully, her features were delicate and beautiful, and she held a jade flute in her hand, looking like a fairy. She smiled gently at everyone and said: "There are three treasures in Taoism: heart, body, and spirit!"

"The first trial tests your Dao hearts. Only those with a sincere desire to cultivate the Dao can embark on this path. Later, I will play a tune. You need not do anything, just listen attentively. If you can endure for more than fifteen breaths within my flute's melody, you will pass."

If you cannot persevere, do not force yourself. Immediately sit cross-legged and you can automatically leave the range of my flute's sound. Of course, if you have the ability, it is still best to persevere as much as possible. The longer you persevere, the more steadfast your path will be.

Compared to Xiao Yi's book, this senior sister Xiang Xuan's attitude was obviously much better. At least she explained the situation of the first level in more detail and made it clear for everyone to understand.

However, most people, including Ginger Cloud, still felt puzzled. What relationship could there be between listening to the flute music and one's determination of heart

Besides, what's there not to persevere for simply listening to a flute melody

These doubts, at the moment a melodious flute sounded, already had answers.

"Pffft!"

Just as the flute's sound first arose, one person suddenly let out a mouthful of fresh blood and staggered backward, falling heavily to the ground!

And this man, as it turned out, was Ginger Cloud!

This sudden turn of events left everyone speechless, even Xiang Xuan was slightly taken aback. The sound of the flute that had just begun playing paused for a moment.

Although Gingercloud and the others were unclear about the relationship between the flute sound and firmness of one's Dao heart, Xiangxuan was very clear. Within her flute music, anyone below the Blessed Land realm could see all sorts of illusions.

Some people can see beautiful women tempting them, some people can see the lure of wealth, and some people can see a beast attacking them. No matter what you see, as long as your heart is firm enough, you will not be moved by these illusions, and thus you will persist in the midst of the flute sounds.

The more steadfast one's mind, the longer they can persist in the face of illusions, and vice versa.

But Ginger Cloud's situation was truly bizarre. His reaction couldn't be described as his resolve solidifying; it was as if he had no resolve at all!

But, Dao gives birth to all things, and all things have the Dao heart!

To be honest, since the founding of the Quanzhen sect, and even since this way of testing one's sincerity emerged, there has never been a case like this.

"I told you, he's a wild man, practicing a wild path. It's different from the Great Dao we pursue, so he lacks our true heart!"

Just then, Huo Yuan's voice, laced with a hint of sarcasm, rang out again. This time, even Tang Yi didn't open his mouth to defend Jiang Yun, because after all, Jiang Yun's situation was too bizarre.

However, no one now had the heart to continue pondering this issue, for just as they were beginning to recover from the previous silence, a new burst of flute music filled the air. Each person began to fight with all their might against the phantoms that materialized before them.

For a moment, only the melodious flute music filled the vast square.

After a moment of silence, several voices, inaudible to outsiders, rang out within the five peaks of Wudaozong.

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever encountered such a situation"

"No! I've been cultivating for over five hundred years, I haven't even heard of it, let alone met it!"

Could this person be a demon

"Impossible! Even if the demon race could hide from us, they couldn't hide from the four divine beasts and the mountain-protecting formation. Besides, the demon race also has dao hearts!"

"Maybe it was just an accident!"

Regarding Jiang Yun's situation, no one could offer a reasonable explanation, let alone Jiang Yun who knew nothing about cultivation.

He only knew that the moment the melodious flute music sounded, a colossal mountain appeared before his eyes and crashed into him.

Even though his physical body was strong, he couldn't withstand such fierce impact, which caused him to spurt blood and stumble to the ground.

Although Ginger Cloud was completely baffled, he at least understood that he had failed the first stage of the assessment. He still had two chances. If he failed all of them, he would lose his eligibility to enter the Dao Seeking Sect.

Fortunately, the injury was not serious. Ginger Cloud did not stand up and continued to sit on the ground, waiting for the end of the first round assessment.

Although he could no longer hear the flute music, he could clearly see that many people around him were beginning to sit down one after another in cross-legged meditation.

Some people, like him, were spitting blood. Others had pale faces and bodies trembling uncontrollably, clearly wounded, either severely or lightly.

When Xiang Xuan removed the jade flute from her lips, only one person remained standing in the entire mountain gate – the cloaked figure that Jiang Yun had noticed before, as if separated from the world.

T{ }

The sound of the flute seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever. He didn't even change his posture from beginning to end, remaining upright and stalwart like a pine tree!

Xiangxuan glanced deeply at Jiangyun before finally announcing the results of the assessment.

In the first round, 267 people successfully passed the level. Among them were the people that Jiang Yun was paying attention to.

In other words, these people are equivalent to having already obtained the qualifications to enter the Wenda Sect. Even if they are just miscellaneous disciples, it is enough to make others extremely envious.

Of course, besides these outstanding disciples who passed the test, much attention was also focused on Jiang Yun.

He stood out from everyone else, his performance was simply the most eye-catching.

"Stage Two!"

Without giving anyone a moment's rest, Xiao Yi's voice rang out once again, shifting all eyes to him.

As soon as he finished speaking, all five of them, including himself, reached out their hands. A beam of light shot from each palm and landed on the ground, revealing five mirrors.

Each mirror stands at a person's height, with an antique style. However, the surface of the mirrors is covered in a hazy mist, making it impossible to reflect anything.

"The second level is to test your ability to gather spiritual energy. This is the Mirror of Inquiry. You will be divided into five groups and line up in front of the mirror. As long as there's any change in the mist on the mirror surface, you pass!"

Listening to Xiao Yishu's explanation, most people, including Jiang Yun, were still confused.

Is looking in the mirror a form of evaluation

The mist on the mirror is changing. Even if I pass

When everyone looked at each other in astonishment, Huo Yuan sneered and said: "Cut, a bunch of bumpkins, you don't understand anything and want to join the Wenda Sect! Let me tell you, only those with the heart to seek the Dao can embark on the path of cultivation. And on the path of cultivation, if you want to go further, it depends on whether you have the spirit of seeking the Dao!"

"Ask the mirror if it contains the Dao, and it might reveal whether you have the potential to cultivate a spirit of inquiry in the future! Alas, perhaps this young master will demonstrate for you!"

Although Huo Yuan's tone was bad, at least he made it clear to everyone what the content of this round of assessment was.

Looking again, Huo Yuan was striding confidently toward the mirror on one side. Everyone, even Jiang Yun, widened their eyes, trying hard to see if there were any mysteries or tricks in this round. at Wanhuan and said, "What makes you think he is Ginger Yun"Didn't you say that Ginger Cloud wasn't a quasi-emperor But the person who ambushed the demon tomb gathering place killed a quasi-emperor w...
