From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 335 Inner Demons Disturb Yao's Heart, Breaking Through Barriers Makes Her Will Stronger

I followed Erlang Shen's gaze and saw at the end of the trial grounds, a dark vortex slowly rotating, as if connecting to another world.

"This...this is?" I was startled, and an ominous premonition welled up in my heart.

Erlang Shen's voice rang out again, tinged with solemnity: "This is the tribulation of your inner demons, and also the greatest test on your path to immortality. Whether you can overcome it depends on your own destiny."

After saying that, Erlang Shen's figure gradually disappeared, leaving me alone to face the unknown darkness.

I took a deep breath and stepped towards the whirlpool.

The moment you step inside, the surrounding scenery changes instantly.

The light disappeared, replaced by endless darkness, as if I were the only person left in the whole world.

"This is... the tribulation of inner demons?" I murmured to myself, my heart filled with vigilance.

Suddenly, an invisible force invaded my consciousness, cold and viscous, like a venomous snake coiling around my soul.

My heart skipped a beat; this feeling... was terrible!

"Xiao Yao, you piece of trash!"

"Without spiritual roots, you are destined to achieve nothing!"

"Look at you! You can't even learn the most basic spells. You're a disgrace!"

Those past taunts and contempts have transformed into sharp voices, echoing in my mind.

Scenes of failure flashed before his eyes: the alchemy furnace exploding after a failed attempt; practicing swordsmanship but unable to even cut through a wooden stake; being ridiculed by his fellow disciples and forced to endure it silently...

"No...that's not how it is!" I clutched my head in anguish, trying to banish the voices.

However, those images became clearer and clearer, and those painful memories became more and more profound.

My body began to tremble slightly, and the suppressed emotions almost consumed me.

"Xiao Yao, give up. You're simply not suited for cultivating immortality."

"Go back to your original world, be an ordinary person, and at least you can live a peaceful life."

Why struggle here and humiliate yourself?

The inner demon's voice was full of temptation, as if it were persuading, yet also mocking.

Suddenly, the scene changed, and I saw Wen Chen.

He stood before me, his eyes icy, his tone resolute: "Xiao Yao, I have never loved you. I approached you only to use you."

"What...what did you say?" I couldn't believe my ears, my heart ached terribly.

Wen Chen sneered, turned and left, leaving me standing there alone.

"No! This can't be real! Wen Chen wouldn't do this to me!" I shook my head desperately, trying to deny what I was seeing.

However, the power of my inner demons was too great; my consciousness began to blur, and my eyes became unfocused.

"Boom!"

The spiritual energy within me began to run rampant, my immortal techniques spiraled out of control, and cracks appeared in the surrounding space, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Outside the Immortal Gate, everyone watched the scene in the trial field, and they were all sweating for me.

"What's wrong with Xiao Yao?"

"Oh no! Her inner demons are too powerful. If this continues, she'll suffer a qi deviation!"

"Immortal Venerable Wen Chen, please think of a solution!"

Wen Chen stood in the crowd, his brows furrowed, his eyes filled with worry.

"Xiao Yao, you must hold on!" he prayed silently in his heart.

In the training ground, I was almost at my breaking point.

Just then, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind.

"No, I can't give up! I still have unfinished dreams, and I still have people who love me and people I love!"

"I am Xiao Yao, I am not a waste! I will become an Immortal Venerable, and I will prove it to everyone!"

I suddenly raised my head, my eyes regaining their resolve.

"Inner demon, get out of my way!"

I roared, my spiritual energy surged wildly, and a powerful willpower erupted from my body.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Those visions conjured by inner demons shattered like glass and vanished into the darkness.

"Ok?"

Wen Chen sensed my change, and he formed a hand seal. A gentle power emanated from his body, passing through layers of obstacles and entering the trial field.

This power was warm and familiar, like a ray of sunshine that dispelled the gloom in my heart.

"Xiao Yao, believe in yourself, you can do it."

Wen Chen's voice resonated in my heart, gentle yet firm.

I felt his strength, and my heart warmed.

Their hearts seemed to be tightly connected at that moment.

"Wen Chen..." I murmured softly, a slight smile playing on my lips.

I closed my eyes, felt this power, and merged it with my own spiritual energy.

"boom!"

A powerful aura erupted from me, causing the surrounding space to tremble.

"Crack!"

The shackles of my inner demons were completely shattered. I opened my eyes, my gaze clear, as if I had been reborn.

I stood where my inner demons had dissipated, feeling the surging power within me, my heart filled with joy.

"The tribulation of inner demons is nothing more than this." I chuckled, my body radiating a dazzling light.

Outside the gate of immortals, Guanyin Bodhisattva looked at me with a gratified smile on her face.

"This girl certainly didn't disappoint me."

But this is only the beginning.

"How will you face the final trial?" A voice slowly rang in my ear.
