Chapter 477 Tribulation
Chapter 477 Tribulation
Qi Refining Channel.
Blood Fiend Island, in the cultivation world of the East Sea.
A person emerged from the void; it was Fang Qing.
He observed the progress of Sangji's refining of the "position certificate," and then checked the situation in various places around the Wuxiang Temple of All Beings.
"Liu Junyan, in alliance with Kongque Dumu, defeated a mid-stage Purple Mansion True Person from the Yin Corpse Sect?"
"Has the Kitchen God of Taihuangtian finally made up his mind to join the Secret Treasury faction? This time, he's sent out all his disciples, giving them his all..."
Currently, the demonic forces are attacking the secret realm mainly from two directions.
One group consisted of demons and members of the Hehuan Sect, who came from the northeast.
The route leads to the Yin Corpse Sect and Moyun Cliff, arriving from the southeast.
Taihuangtian is located at the border between the ancient Shu and the Ten Thousand Mountains. If something happens to it, it will endanger the heartland.
Therefore, Fang Qing felt that if the Kitchen God turned against them, the Yin Corpse Sect and Moyun Cliff would never let him go.
Although the military offensive against the secret realm has been temporarily halted, it would be easy to take the opportunity to destabilize Taihuangtian...
During this period, bloodshed and turmoil have been raging in the Hidden Lands. In fact, not only the Hidden Lands, but also the nearby ancient Shu and southern border regions are very unstable and may be shaken.
If the two major Golden Core sects join forces to shake down the Taihuang Heaven... the Kitchen God wouldn't be so unwise... we'll probably have to wait until the battle is at its most intense before we can see his true colors.
Fang Qing thought of his own "Tai Su Jin Shu" and his heart stirred. This book was clearly related to the Kitchen God, so he should investigate and make some plans.
Then, his thoughts wandered, and he thought of that nameless cave, and the "Mysterious and Subtle True Lord," the true Golden Core ancestor of the Fang family, who was trapped inside the nameless cave. This might also be an opportunity!
I was even planning to wage war to find the Destiny Child that could shake the Heavenly Realm... Now it seems the villains and demons have done it all for me... Once Sangji has fully refined the 'Rank Certificate,' I might be able to go and investigate..."
"Young Master!" As he stood in mid-air, streaks of light flew over, revealing Qin Ruxue, Tian Sha, and the others, all of whom bowed respectfully.
Today, Blood Fiend Island is lush and green, with pavilions and towers built, and a lake has been created by diverting water. A huge shell farm has also been built, which is managed by Mingyue. Every year, it produces a large number of water spirit pearls comparable to high-grade spirit stones, and occasionally even top-grade spirit pearls. The income is equivalent to that of a large spirit stone mine, which is enough to make the island self-sufficient.
In addition, the cultivation world of the East Sea knew that Blood Fiend Island was once full of demonic cultivators, but now it had fallen into the hands of a legendary great cultivator and become a paradise on earth, so they dared not offend it in the slightest.
Moreover... there are rumors circulating that the leader of the Myriad Stars Alliance and the current island lord have a close relationship.
Fang Qing laughed it off, preparing to have some fun. His previous travels had only taken him to the Yunzhou continent and parts of the South China Sea.
After enjoying this leisurely time for a while, we'll head east to see if we can reach the ends of the earth...
"Has anything happened on the island lately?" Fang Qing landed outside his cave dwelling, looked around, and casually asked.
"Young Master Qi... everything is well on the island."
Yu Xianglan stepped forward and solemnly delivered her report.
In fact, Blood Fiend Island is both offensive and defensive, making it difficult for ordinary Nascent Soul forces to breach. Furthermore, with two great cultivators, Tian Sha and Ming Yue, stationed there, given the current desolate state of the East Sea cultivation world, only the full force of the Myriad Star Alliance and Zhan Hongxiu's personal intervention could possibly break through Blood Fiend Island while Fang Qing is absent.
Of course, unless Zhan Hongxiu is a fool, she would never do such a thing.
Therefore, it can be considered as impregnable as a fortress, with no external threats.
"There were a few messages sent to the young master..."
Yu Xiang'er chuckled softly, took out several tokens from her storage bag, and handed them to Fang Qing.
"Oh?" Fang Qing entered the cave and saw a rich flow of [Ji Water] light, which transformed into a pool. A jade bridge was built over the pool, and several koi carp swam around the bridge piers. Not far away, there was a jade plum tree, its fragrance filling the air. Clearly, this newly built cave had been carefully designed and had used a large number of spiritual items from the Qi Cultivation and Qi Refining paths, making it extremely comfortable.
He lay back in the soft chair and casually opened a message talisman: "Shangjia Island? That kid Shang Yuanxin... he's finally about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
"Merchant Island was once a top-tier power, and even though it has declined somewhat, it is still a force to be reckoned with..."
Yu Xiang'er, understanding the implied meaning from the music, gave Fang Qing a brief introduction to the current situation of Shangjia Island.
The Myriad Stars Alliance unified the cultivation world of the East Sea, and Shangjia Island naturally could not resist. Under the leadership of the Shangjia Ancestor, all of them joined the Myriad Stars Alliance, and Shangjia Island even rose to the high position of Vice Alliance Leader.
Merchant Island thus became one of the thirty-six islands in the inner sea of the Myriad Stars Alliance, hidden only below the Myriad Stars Alliance headquarters on "Myriad Stars Island".
Shang Yuanxin, the young master of the Shang family, had already reserved the right to exchange for a "Nascent Soul Pill".
Now, having experienced a great battle, his magical power has been honed to perfection. He has also used his battle merits to exchange for several Nascent Soul spiritual items, especially pills to resist inner demons and treasures to ward off lightning. He is finally preparing to undergo tribulation and become a Nascent Soul cultivator...
This letter was again delivered through Chung Ling-hsiu.
After all, Tian Sha Island still needs a certain amount of communication and contact with the outside world, and the characteristics of Tian Shuang Lao Guai are very obvious.
The cultivators from Merchant Island found Old Monster Tian Shuang, and through him, met Zhong Lingxiu, finally reconnecting with the old connection and allowing the talisman to be delivered to them.
"That's quite rare..." Fang Qing casually tossed the talisman aside.
Even without deduce the cause and effect, he could guess what the merchants were up to. It was undoubtedly just the same old trick of using a big name and a powerful figure, which was really tiresome.
Now that he has achieved the Dao Transformation, he can have whatever he wants in the entire cultivation world, and he doesn't care about these trivial matters at all.
She picked up another jade talisman, which belonged to Zhan Hongxiu.
"Oh? This woman also requests to see me?" Fang Qing pondered for a moment, then readily agreed: "Then let's meet on Merchant Island."
He happened to have some questions about "Fengxi" and wanted to look up some information.
Of the ancient documents, only those from Shangjia Island and Wanxing Alliance have been preserved relatively intact at this time.
Although a number of books from various top sects were seized on Blood Fiend Island, they appeared to be rather incomplete.
"Perfect timing to have Zhan Hongxiu go through the old papers..." While pondering, Fang Qing had already connected with the Turtle Elder through the Dao-Born Pearl.
Because this tortoise spirit had long been one with Zhan Hongxiu, everything she had done during this period, even her cultivation techniques, secret arts, and the magical treasures she had refined, was clearly visible to Fang Qing, as if he could read the lines on his palm. After planting this hidden trap, Fang Qing could even say that he understood Zhan Hongxiu better than she understood herself.
"Oh? Quite ambitious, actually preparing to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage? Her cultivation progress is that fast?"
"Well, even with a large number of ancient medicinal herbs, especially the support of that Peng Blood Fruit from back then, it's still quite difficult..."
"However, the Zhou Tian Star Palace has many secret techniques passed down, one of which, if guided by a Nascent Soul cultivator, increases the probability of breaking through to the Great Cultivator by at least 30%..."
"Is Zhan Hongxiu just trying to curry favor with me and then give me this secret technique... as a prelude to asking for my help later?"
Fang Qing smiled slightly, not caring, and continued to play with his old lovers, including Yu Xiang'er.
a few days later.
Merchant Island.
Rumble!
The once cloudless sky suddenly became overcast.
A powerful surge of magical energy then emerged.
"The magical power fluctuations of a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
"Someone... has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and from then on, their lifespan is a thousand years."
On Merchant Island, within the Immortal City, many cultivators looked up at the place where the Nascent Soul's magical power fluctuations originated, their faces filled with envy.
At this moment, groups of merchant cultivators also lined up, solemnly enforcing the law: "Our young master is currently breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage; no cultivator is allowed to approach... or they will be killed without mercy!"
Above the sky, several Nascent Soul cultivators gazed intently at the dark clouds that were teeming with lightning.
"The tribulation has begun... It seems that Yuan Xin has successfully condensed his nascent soul and even overcome the tribulation of inner demons..."
The merchant patriarch was overjoyed: "Haha... In this way, my merchant family has gained another Nascent Soul cultivator."
For the wealthy young master of the merchant family, as long as he survives the two major tribulations of breaking through the core and becoming an infant and the inner demon, the final tribulation of lightning is relatively simple, because the merchant family has enough wealth to prepare excellent lightning-repelling treasures for them!
Basically, all high-level cultivators, when breaking through, will use various secret techniques and treasures to reduce the power of the lightning, and then unleash a powerful defensive treasure. Not everyone is as foolish as Fang Qing, who would try to withstand the attack head-on with his own body.
"Congratulations, Ancestor!" A mid-Nascent Soul cultivator spoke up from the side, his face full of joy. It was none other than Shang Kongzhen.
click!
One bolt of lightning after another struck down, but it was all blocked by a tower-shaped magic weapon.
Just then, the merchant patriarch's expression changed, and he transformed into a streak of light, heading towards a certain place overseas.
A streak of emerald light flew by, revealing the figure of Zhan Hongxiu.
"This old man pays his respects to the Alliance Leader!" Upon seeing this woman, the Shang family patriarch was startled, and a respectful expression appeared on his face.
There was no other way! He had already confirmed through various channels that this woman was a descendant of the Zhou Tian Xing Gong and was skilled in the secret technique of displaying the divine light of the Big Dipper, which shortened one's lifespan.
And because he was quite old, this was the move he feared most.
It can be said that as long as Zhan Hongxiu is willing to pay the price, she can kill him without any harm in a single breath.
Therefore, when the old patriarch of the merchant family saw that the situation was hopeless, he immediately led the merchant family to surrender without hesitation.
Seeing Zhan Hongxiu arrive in person, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Vice Alliance Leader..." Zhan Hongxiu nodded and landed somewhere on Merchant Island.
It was only after landing that the old ancestor of the merchant family discovered that there was actually a person standing there watching Shang Yuanxin undergo his tribulation.
His appearance was somewhat unfamiliar, but the familiar magical energy fluctuations were undeniable.
It was Fang Qing who had abandoned the false identity of "Fang Shui".
Now that he has achieved the Nascent Soul stage, he can show his true face wherever he goes. "Hmm... it seems that Shang Yuanxin will be able to successfully pass the tribulation and become a Nascent Soul Ancestor."
He gazed at the continuously falling lightning, silently comprehending its power, his own 'Primordial Thunder Palace' becoming increasingly active: "Furthermore... the lightning tribulation this person is facing seems to be much weaker than when I was in the Nascent Soul stage? Could it be that this heavenly tribulation is selective in its application? Then wouldn't the tribulation I faced when I was in the Deity Transformation stage have been hellish?"
