Man is born from his heart, and kindness is kind-hearted, and evil is evil, but I do not agree.

The heart is bisexual, but it is also good and evil. Good is evil, good is evil.

Accumulation of small good is great good, accumulation of small evil is great evil.

A good man becomes a god, a wicked man becomes a demon.

If all living beings were few in number due to their status as Gods and many as Demons, what would happen then?

No displeasure, no greed, no infatuation, no inferiority, no arrogance is rare.

The heart of a merciful man may be good, but it is easy for him to be evil if he has failed in his ways; and it is also easy for him to be evil if he has failed in his ways when he has done righteous deeds.

It is to be a person in advance, to be a person in the first place.

If the heart is not righteous, then it is evil. If it is evil, then it is disorderly. If it is disorderly, then it is disturbing.

Repeated, tangled and confused, it became a demon in the heart.

Demonheart gave birth to an abundant amount of devils, while demonheart destroyed them. Demonheart was a demonheart.

Only when the evil thought was gone and the will was gone could reason be understood and speed be achieved. It was clearly separated from each other.

Since the four seas ascend to the level and the world returns to its heart, there is nothing to gain from it.

There was a Spirit Concealing Peak on Mount Yi. The Spirit Concealing Peak had a large stone cave dedicated to a first-class martial arts manual passed down since the ancient times — Celestial Arcanum Sect's secret scroll.

Everyone in the martial arts world believed this rumor. All the sects and clans wanted to obtain the martial arts manual from the big cave, but since it was a martial arts manual, how could it be obtained so easily? Not to mention how difficult it was to reach the Spirit Hidden Peak, even climbing the Yi Xian Mountain was difficult as it was shrouded in a poisonous miasma all year round. Not to mention humans, there wasn't even a bird.

For thousands of years, countless people had coveted this martial arts manual, but they had no choice but to give it up in the end.

However, in recent decades, there had been people in the martial arts world who were eager to learn the secret scriptures. Because I heard that there is a passage called the "Profound Realm secret passage" that leads directly to the Spirit Concealing Peak. Therefore, all kinds of people started to search for the location of the secret passageway without stopping.

It was rumored in the martial world that the person who built the secret passageway was the founder of the Horizon Monastery — the Ancient Daoist Master. As such, the Horizon Monastery became the target of public criticism. A bloody curtain was drawn.

Due to the elegant environment and the fresh air, the number of people who had come up to the mountain to comprehend the Dao gradually increased over the past few years. Of course, the biggest reason was because they were headed towards the Mysterious Realm secret passage. These days, most of the pilgrims who came with their names were inquiring about the secret passageway.

The current Sect Master of the Horizon Monastery was Daoist Ruosong. Seeing how the number of visitors to the Horizon Monastery was increasing, and their origins unknown, the worries in his heart increased day by day. He had four great disciples, and all of them were equipped with unique skills.

The eldest disciple, known as the "Void Kid", knew the Soaring Sky Technique. His magic treasure was a piece of the Viridescent Golden Azure Dragon Sword that was known as the "Three Chi", and the blade of the sword was extremely sharp. Before the statue could even get close to the edge of the sword, it was cut by the sword Qi, not to mention anything else. This sword was made from thousand year black iron, and it was as sharp as mud.

The second disciple, known as "The Cliff Free", cultivated in the art of driving away water, and his magic treasure was named the Water-Repellent Glass Bead. It was round and smooth, and when placed in the water, it would automatically rotate, allowing the river water to flow in all directions. It could control the flow of water, be it turbulent, smooth, swift, or whirlpool, or countercurrent. If he could avoid the water droplets, he could walk underwater, as if he was walking on flat ground. Not only that, he could breathe freely. This was a rare treasure that he had encountered in his previous life.

The third disciple, known as the "Netherworld Udumbara", was proficient in the Yin Yang Spirit Channeling Technique. His magic treasure was called the Yin Yang Mirror of the Heaven and Earth. It was crafted from gold and the size of an adult man's palm. It was extremely exquisite. There is a thin chain around the nose of the mirror, which can be worn around the neck or around the waist. The spirit of the person being shined upon by the mirror would be absorbed into it. Even the deities of the Great Firmament would not be able to do anything to it.

Fourth disciple, known as "Crimson Flame Son" knew the art of fire escape. The ninth layer of the technique was called Blazing Sky Illumination. It was like heaven's fire. Once it was used, no matter how one used it, it would not be able to extinguish the fire. Wherever it passed, there would be no ashes. If one wore the Nine Coldfrost Silkworm Armor, they would be able to easily pass through the realm of fire as if it were nothing. The Wood Escape Technique, as its name implied, once it was hidden in the forest, it would disappear without a trace.

Late summer, early autumn, early August, seventh white dew

When night fell, Daoist Ruo Song summoned the four disciples to the inner hall. He looked at the four disciples with a fatherly gaze and said in a serious tone, "Xu Huanzi, Wu Ya, You Zi, and Chi Yan, how many years have your four brothers followed this master in comprehending the Dao of Immortality?"

Huaizi cupped his hands and bowed towards Daoist Ruo Song, "Reporting to Master, our four brothers have followed Master for forty years."

When Daoist Ruo Song heard this, he stroked the silver beard that covered his chest and nodded, "Oh, it really is fleeting. The Revolving Star Passage Technique. Forty spring and autumn days passed just like that. I still have memories of when I brought you all up the mountain to cultivate. It's just like yesterday. Sigh … "

"Master, why did you suddenly remember to talk about the past?" Chi Yan asked in confusion.

"Master, your disciple has been getting more and more confused, and wants you to give me some pointers." "No," the hollow child said.

Daoist Zhusong nodded, indicating that he should continue.

In the past, there weren't many pilgrims, but most of them came for the sake of cultivating their bodies. However, in recent years, there have been more and more pilgrims on the mountain, and the disciples have found out that many of them are from clans in the martial arts world. Most of the questions they have had were related to secret passages and their motives were not pure.

Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this. They felt that this good-for-nothing's worries were not without reason.

"Yes, Master." You Zi said, "A disciple reported something to me. There were many people who bribed him with money and asked about the residences of my three fellow disciples and I, but I didn't pay much attention to that. I thought that they simply wanted to find us, those who had comprehended the Dao in private, so after hearing senior brother's words, I felt that things weren't that simple."

Hearing this, Ruo Song's brows tightened even more. He said in a serious tone, "Master has summoned all four of you here today to tell you one thing. The four divine artifacts in your possession are treasures left behind by the ancient Spiritual Masters.

The fourth disciple was shocked when he heard this.

Daoist Master Song continued, "Since the ancient times of the Primordial Daoist Masters, people have been sent to guard the secret passage. The previous Sect Leaders would also choose a disciple with high attainments to guard the secret passage until now."

After listening to their Master's words, the four felt their blood boiling and their blood boiling.

"Oh? "Then who is this gatekeeper now?"

He stroked his beard and smiled without answering.

"So the rumors in the Jianghu are true. There really is a secret passage. So the martial arts manuals in the Spirit Hidden Peak's big cave are also true?" Wu Ya was amazed.

"Yes, these rumors are all true. As the saying goes, 'There is a reason behind all this'. I didn't tell you before because I felt it was unnecessary, but now that things have progressed to this point, I have no choice but to tell you the secret that I have been hiding for ten thousand years."

"But since it's a secret, why would the news leak out?" Especially in the past ten years, when such voices have been rampant. I have always felt that countless pairs of eyes were staring at us in the darkness. "

If Sage Song looked up at the sky and gave a long sigh, "Do you really want my Horizon Monastery's three hundred and twenty disciples to face a bloody storm? I'm afraid that what I feared years ago will come true this time. " Ruo Song's eyes suddenly turned sharp. "The four of you have to properly control the magical equipment in your hands. You can't fall into the hands of a thief!"

The four of them said in unison: "This disciple will obey master's orders. This disciple will definitely remember Master's instructions and take it upon himself to uphold the righteous path of martial arts."

"..."

A bat scuttled across the roof, deep into the darkness. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his teeth chattered as he gnashed his teeth: "You old bastard from Spirit Hidden Peak, you have caused me to become neither a human nor a ghost, just you wait, once I find the secret passageway of the Profound Realm, I will make you die without a burial ground!"

Under the flickering light of the fire, his face became even more hideous and terrifying.
