Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

Xiao Muchen and Wan'er had just gained a moment of respite in the battle to break through the illusion. However, before they could enjoy this moment of peace, the mysterious Yin-Yang Reverse Heart Flame seemed to be angered by their stubborn resistance, and suddenly increased the difficulty of the test.

In the void around them, an invisible pressure suddenly came like a surging black torrent. This pressure was as heavy as a mountain, with endless gloom and treacherousness, crushing their minds with a crushing force. Its purpose was clear and sinister, which was to break through their inner defenses and make them give up in despair.

"Humph, you want me to give up? That's just wishful thinking!" Xiao Muchen gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with anger, like two balls of blazing flames. His body stood straight, like a spear that would never yield, facing this terrifying pressure.

Wan'er's pretty face was also tense, her eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her beautiful face was full of determination and courage. She shouted in a delicate voice: "Don't try to shake my determination with such tricks!" The voice was crisp and loud, echoing in this pressure-filled void, showing her unyielding will.

The evil force seemed to understand their resistance and instantly transformed into countless eerie phantoms. These phantoms had different shapes, some looked like ferocious evil spirits, and some looked like miserable ghosts. They howled miserably in the ears of Xiao Muchen and Wan'er, and the sound was like a sharp thorn, piercing straight into the depths of their hearts.

The painful memories of the past were ruthlessly brought back by this force like a tide. The many setbacks Xiao Muchen had encountered on his path of cultivation, the scenes of being despised and ridiculed emerged one by one; the disasters that Wan'er's family had suffered, the separation of relatives, those unforgettable pains were infinitely magnified at this moment. Negative emotions such as loss, fear, and despair were like heavy shackles, trying to drag their souls into the abyss of darkness.

However, at this difficult moment, Xiao Muchen and Wan'er looked at each other. In each other's eyes, they saw firm trust and unyielding courage. It was a kind of communication without words, a tacit understanding and support from the depths of the soul.

Xiao Muchen said in a deep voice: "Wan'er, don't be disturbed by this evil power, stick to your original heart! We have come this far and experienced countless hardships and obstacles, how could we surrender at this moment!" His voice was steady and powerful, like a solid shield, blocking some of the psychological impact on Wan'er.

Wan'er nodded slightly, tears flashing in her eyes, but those were not tears of fear or surrender, but a symbol of firmness and determination. She replied: "Brother Muchen, you and I will definitely get through this together! No matter how difficult this test is, I will not back down even a step!"

They kept their minds focused and rejected all external interference. The fusion power in their bodies flowed rapidly through their meridians like a surging river. They directed this power to the surroundings of their minds and built an extremely solid defense line. The gloomy phantom was like a surging wave, constantly hitting this defense line, making piercing screams and collisions.

Although every impact made this line of defense tremble and seemed like it would collapse at any time, Xiao Muchen and Wan'er always held on to this last line of defense with their tenacious will and trust in each other.

Seeing that this move was ineffective, Ni Xin Yan became even more angry. It exerted its strength again, and this time, its means were even more sinister and vicious. In the void, the things they desired most in their hearts began to emerge. Those scenes were vivid and full of endless temptation.

In front of Xiao Muchen, a peerless technique emitting a mysterious light appeared. This technique seemed to contain the most powerful force in the world. As long as he reached out and touched it, he would gain the ability to be invincible in the world. He had encountered bottlenecks in his practice countless times, and the desire for powerful strength was infinitely magnified at this moment.

In front of Wan'er's eyes, there was a prosperous scene of the family's revival. The family members were laughing and the family was thriving. The past suffering and pain had all vanished. That was the goal she had been thinking about day and night and striving for.

"It's all illusion, don't be fooled!" Xiao Muchen roared, veins popping out on his forehead. He forced his eyes away from the tempting technique, and kept reminding himself in his heart that all this was Ni Xinyan's trick, and if he was tempted, all his efforts would be wasted.

Wan'er also gritted her teeth, her body trembling slightly. But she also relied on her strong will to discard the distracting thoughts in her heart. She knew very well that the real revival of the family required her own down-to-earth efforts, rather than being deceived by this illusory scene.

Their mental defenses trembled more and more under these waves of attacks, like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time. But Xiao Muchen and Wan'er's hearts were like a burning fire, burning more and more vigorously.

Xiao Muchen muttered to himself: "My faith is as solid as a rock. No matter how you attack me, I will not waver in the slightest! I will rely on my own strength to reach the top, instead of relying on this illusory temptation!" Every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting the evil forces that tried to erode his mind.

Wan'er also shouted in her heart: "My will is indestructible, don't even think about making me give up! The glory of my family needs me to exchange it with sweat and blood, not get lost in this false scene!"

Time seemed to freeze, and every second was like a long torture. But Xiao Muchen and Wan'er always supported each other, and their strength gathered into a powerful torrent in the communication of their hearts, resisting the attack of the Ni Xin Yan.

Their clothes were soaked with sweat, their faces were pale, but the light in their eyes never dimmed. In this difficult and heart-breaking test, they used their actions to interpret their persistence in belief, their pursuit of strength, and their commitment to each other.

Xiao Muchen's breathing became rapid, but his eyes remained firm. "Wan'er, hold on! We will definitely defeat this evil force!"

Wan'er responded: "Brother Muchen, I won't let you down!"

At the critical moment when their strength was about to be exhausted and their mental defenses were about to collapse, an unprecedented powerful force suddenly erupted from the depths of Xiao Muchen and Wan'er's hearts. This force came from their persistence in their goals, their trust in each other, and their adherence to justice.

This power was like a dazzling light, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness. Those gloomy phantoms disappeared under the light, and the tempting scenes in the void were also shattered.

Xiao Muchen and Wan'er were breathing heavily, their bodies were shaky, but they had a triumphant smile on their faces. They knew that this was just a difficult hurdle in a long journey, but they managed to hold on to their hearts and lay a solid foundation for future battles.

"Wan'er, we did it!" Xiao Muchen stretched out his hand and held Wan'er's hand tightly.

Wan'er smiled, her eyes full of fatigue but hope. "Yes, Brother Muchen, as long as we are together, nothing can defeat us!"

In this challenging test of the heart, Xiao Muchen and Wan'er successfully defended their inner defenses with their tenacious will and firm belief, and took one step closer to the goal of conquering the Yin-Yang Heart Flame.
