Fang Xun and Yi Xiuyang felt an even greater pressure than Fang Jing; they too could quicken their pace, but they could not stride as nimbly as the woman in white from before. After all, they were still at the foot of the mountain, and who knows how far away the midway up the mountainside might be.
"Rumor has it that a cultivator from the Taiqing Xuanjiao took a year to reach Yuqing Pass by foot, and to this day, no one has truly witnessed the Heavenly Dao. The woman earlier ran so fast, she probably had her own objectives."
Yi Xiuyang sighed, having long heard of Kunlun's difficulty, yet only upon truly setting foot on Kunlun Mountain did she understand the arduousness of the path to seeking the Dao.
She felt that relying solely on their efforts, it would be impossible to reach the summit, but she was not discouraged, after all, Fang Xun was the biological brother of the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao wouldn't have them walk their whole lives, right?
