Zhan Shen: I am the spokesperson for the Great Love Immortal

As he spoke, Lin Qiye took the opportunity to explain the information about the seventh step to Fang Si and the others.

"Two thousand years later, your seventh step realm will also be known as the ceiling of humanity, and is hailed as the highest realm that humans can reach."

To advance from the sixth realm to the seventh realm, one must first overcome the mental barrier. If one cannot overcome this barrier, one will never reach the seventh realm.

Hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si frowned, but before he could ask a question, Gongyang Wan asked the question that he cared about.

Seeing Lin Qiye suddenly shut up, Gongyang Wan quickly pressed him for an answer.

"The psychological barrier? What is the psychological barrier?"

Fang Si was not the only one who cared about the method to break through to the seventh step; she cared about it extremely much as well. After all, although she was currently at the sixth step, she was only one step away from the seventh step.

She had long admired the ability of Huo Qubing and others to manipulate events at will.

However, Lin Qiye shook his head when he heard Gongyang Wan's question.

"I do not know."

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si and the others were taken aback, and Gongyang Wan even frowned and asked.

"You don't know? Do you really not know, or are you just unwilling to tell me?"

Hearing Gongyang Wan's words, which were clearly tinged with anger and resentment, everyone frowned, but Lin Qiye was not angry at all.

He simply shook his head calmly.

"I really don't have any good ways to overcome my mental barriers, because I overcame them all in a daze."

Perhaps the Marquis and Chloe understand better than I do how to overcome this psychological barrier.

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, everyone immediately turned their attention to Huo Qubing and Chloe, who were standing together.

Seeing everyone's gaze, Chloe scratched her head.

"Oh dear, don't look at me. I don't know how I broke through either. I just accidentally broke through while spreading the great spirit of my Lord. I really don't know how I did it."

Upon hearing Chloe's words, everyone's lips twitched slightly, and then they turned their attention to Huo Qubing.

As everyone's gaze fell upon him, Huo Qubing pondered for a moment.

"I broke through to the seventh step when I was still a General of the Cavalry in the Xiongnu royal court."

Everyone's lips twitched. You're something else.

After learning about Huo Qubing and Fang Si's breakthrough experiences, Fang Si sighed.

Perhaps, the psychological barrier is different for everyone.

So, what is the barrier in his heart?

Just as Fang Si was pondering, Lin Qiye stood up, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

"Alright, now that Old Fang and Lord Hou have completed the refining, we should set off immediately to pursue Kusuen."

Although the Empress used the Kunlun Mirror to slow his progress, it ultimately only limited him. Therefore, the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for us.

The Kunlun Mirror is indeed powerful, but its effectiveness depends on the circumstances.

If the Queen Mother of the West were at her peak, and she were to use the Kunlun Mirror to bind Kr'tsun face-to-face, she would naturally be able to trap Kr'tsun for a long time.

However, if it is only an attack from a distance, even with numerous formations as support, its power will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, although the Immortal Pill is no longer in the Jade Pool, the Eternal Life Pill is still there, so she naturally has to continue to stay in the Jade Pool.

That's why Lin Qiye said he would immediately pursue Kusuen.

If this drags on any longer, who knows where Kousun will go.

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si nodded and, together with Huo Qubing and the others, got up and followed Lin Qiye toward the exit of Yaochi.

His strength has now reached the limit of the sixth step. Although he is still not quite used to it because he just gained power, he is more confident in his death.

As he walked towards the edge of Yaochi, Fang Si continued to experiment with the sixth step, [Mind Power], to see how far he could go.

After everyone left Yaochi, since more than a day had passed, the carriage had obviously disappeared. After Lin Qiye flew into the sky and searched around but couldn't find it, Huo Qubing simply used the forbidden ruins site to make a temporary structure out of trees.

As the carriage, without wheels or horses, was created, everyone's expression changed.

They're not stupid; you can tell how it flies just by looking at its design.

However, despite their reluctance, given the urgency of the situation, no one had a reason not to get on the carriage. In the end, they could only grit their teeth and board the carriage, thinking that they wouldn't die anyway.

As the carriage soared into the sky, even Fang Si couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "My youth has returned!"

Huo Qubing's driving skills were worse than those of his neighbor, the old man who drove a tractor!

As the carriage flew for a while, Fang Si was still breathing, but Yan Zhong stuck his head out of the window, pretending it was raining outside, while patting the carriage wall with his hand.

"No...no...My lord...Ugh...Stop...stop for a second...I can't fly anymore..."

Whether they could catch up with Nakusuen Yan Zhong if they flew any further was unknown, but he was definitely dead.

Chapter 560 Snowflakes of Yesteryear

The cold wind howled, and fallen flowers and snowflakes flew.

In a world of pure white, like a fairyland, a group of people walked on foot toward the distance.

Thanks to Yan Zhong's efforts, Huo Qubing and Lin Qiye finally decided to stop flying and travel for a while. After all, it was uncertain whether Yan Zhong would live or die if they continued flying. Zhan Yuwu and Hu Jia had both fainted.

Of course, although Fang Si wasn't used to riding the flying car the first time, it's nothing to him now.

After all, times have changed, and he is now a powerful expert at the sixth realm.

Meanwhile, as he walked through the snow, Fang Si was also thinking about some things.

First, let's talk about this opportunity.

There are no prizes without a reason in this world, just as gold and silver treasures don't fall from the sky for people to choose from.

Therefore, although it seems that he easily took the steps between the second and sixth steps, in reality, it was his future self who paved the way for him.

Looking at the snow-white distance, Fang Si gradually began to understand.

It seems that his coming here with Lin Qiye is the first step in his future plan, and consuming the Nine-Turn Golden Pill is merely the second step that should be taken.

So, what foreshadowing is this snow-covered road that he now has to take?

Just as Fang Si was walking calmly through the snow, Lin Qiye took Jialan's hand and walked to his side.

"What are you thinking about?"

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's question, Fang Si paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at him and Jialan.

"I'm wondering when you'll marry Garan."

Lin Qiye was taken aback, while Jialan's pretty face quickly flushed crimson.

"Uh... haha... soon, but it'll have to wait until I'm done with my work, right? Right now, the Great Xia and Great Han are surrounded by enemies on all sides, and the Khwarazmian Empire is eyeing us covetously. How can I have time to deal with personal matters?"

As soon as Lin Qiye finished speaking, Jialan looked at Lin Qiye with obvious disappointment for a moment, but it was quickly filled with admiration.

Although she couldn't marry Lin Qiye, it was precisely this kind of Lin Qiye who was the lover she longed for day and night.

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si also gave Lin Qiye a deep look.

Unlike his smooth-talking personality that came with experience in later generations, Lin Qiye was truly a moral exemplar.

In terms of personality, he is both upright and righteous, and he is not rigid in his thinking. When he wants to be cheeky, he can make others think outside the box.

Perhaps only someone like him could break through the encirclement in the later world he described and still remain positive and optimistic.

To be fair, based on what Lin Qiye said about the situation in later generations, it's not certain that someone else would still be loyal to the Great Xia.

Internal corruption alone, coupled with a little infiltration from external enemies, is enough to wipe out many geniuses.

After glancing at Lin Qiye, Fang Si withdrew his gaze.

"You're quite carefree. Now that you've finally reunited, don't you want to get married as soon as possible? You know, in the future, you might not have this opportunity again."

Hearing Fang Si's words, Jialan was confused, but Lin Qiye remained silent.

Lin Qiye wasn't stupid, so he naturally understood that Fang Si was referring to the incident in the future where Jialan was beaten and forced into a deep sleep in order to save him.

He gave a bitter smile and shook his head.

"I do not know."

Even though Lin Qiye has become somewhat more perceptive now, he is still quite clueless when it comes to matters of the heart.

Whether a person knows how to love or not cannot be learned through study; only sufficient experience can make them realize it.

Seeing that Lin Qiye remained silent, Fang Si did not press him for further questions, after all, this was Lin Qiye's own family matter.

Besides, the main character was standing right next to them, and since Garan wasn't in a hurry, he naturally didn't need to be either.

Therefore, Fang Si withdrew his gaze from Lin Qiye and turned to look at a small black dot that was gradually appearing in the heavy snow ahead.

Since advancing to the sixth realm, Fang Si's body has naturally been strengthened several times by his spiritual power, and his eyesight has also improved significantly.

Now, even without using the forbidden area, he can see houses and buildings ten miles away on a parallel line, as long as there is nothing obstructing his view.

Of course, it's vague.

As the small temple gradually came into focus, Fang Si asked Lin Qiye a question while walking.

"Seven Nights, I have a question."

Lin Qiye, who was still lost in his feelings for Jialan, suddenly snapped out of his reverie upon hearing Fang Si's question. He pulled Jialan to Fang Si's side and spoke to him as they walked.

"You said."

"You say that the mental barrier is an obsession or confusion in people's hearts. So, what exactly constitutes an obsession or confusion?"

As he spoke, Fang Si's eyes flickered, and he slightly raised his head to look at the snowflakes dancing in the sky.

He actually brought a lot of clothes with him on this trip, since his cultivation level was not high when he came and he could not withstand the cold environment.

However, as his cultivation level improved, he no longer needed to wear those clothes, and they were all lost along with the carriage.

Fang Si was now wearing only a loose white robe, which was decorated with delicate white patterns, but was actually very simple.

If there's anything outstanding about his outfit, it's probably just the bright red cloak he's wearing on the outside.

Looking at Fang Si, who was standing in the snow looking up at the sky, Lin Qiye considered for a moment, then smiled at him.

"What constitutes obsession and confusion is a question that others probably cannot answer. Even though we have known each other for ten years, I still cannot answer this kind of question that involves the heart."

Lin Qiye paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, even in later generations, your goal remains pure and simple, and has never changed."

Hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si stopped looking at the snow in the sky and turned to look at him.

At this moment, Huo Qubing and the others also walked behind the three of them, looking at Lin Qiye and waiting for his next words.

Lin Qiye thought for a moment, then scooped up some snow with his hands, rolled it into a ball, and then rolled the ball in the snow.

"I still remember the year we first met. I was young and had injured my eyes, so I was always afraid. I would never go out in the snow because it was dangerous for a blind person."

As he spoke, Lin Qiye handed the sphere in his hand to Fang Si.

"But that year, you told me that the most important thing in life is to live, and that's secondary."

The snowball you handed me that snowy day that year was a reminder that although obsession, like desire, only grows stronger and larger with time, no matter how much time has passed, its core remains a snowflake.

Just like your ambition, it has always been simply to live.

Chapter 561 Snow Doesn't Fall in the South.

There is no snow in Cangnan in winter, but the great man can make snow fall by manipulating clouds.

Young Lin Qiye wouldn't have thought about why there would be such a snowfall covering an entire city in the south, just as Fang Si wouldn't understand why Lin Qiye would remember such a trivial matter.

However, more important than these things right now is that Fang Si has gradually calmed down after listening to Lin Qiye's story.

At the same time, accompanied by a cracking sound of the mirror shattering, he officially stepped into the highest realm that humans can reach.

In an instant, death reached the ceiling of humanity.

Fang Si stared at the snowball in his hand and remained silent for a moment.

After a while, he put it on the ground.
