Chapter 251 Foundation Establishment Level 8 Thunder Corpse Tribulation (Monthly Ticket Bonus!)

Long Yiran was still surprised. Wang Yu was referring to the breakthrough in body refinement cultivation. It would be perfect if all three of them could go through it together and increase their strength.

He not only received the baptism of the dragon vein, further enhancing his physical potential, but also possessed the breakthrough item, the [Glazed Lotus Heart Elixir].

The chances are much greater than with Taki.

Lei Shi will conduct a test first, and once he has a good understanding of the power of the lightning tribulation, he will have Long Yiran test the effect of the scattered lightning array flag. Once everything is foolproof, he will take the initiative to break through to the next realm.

In this way, the safety of continuing to explore the Heavenly Soul Sect ruins is greatly improved, and there is no need to retreat and wait for the next time. This time, we must complete the inheritance of the Ancient Soul Technique.

Otherwise, his three mutant corpses wouldn't even have a chance to fight together, which wouldn't work!

"I see."

After checking the status of the [Heavenly Heart Thunder-Dispersing Calamity-Avoiding Treasure Array], Taki couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"These are truly mysterious array flags. Their resistance to lightning power has almost reached the limit of the material, and their resistance to heavenly might is of paramount importance."

"Heavenly might?"

"Of course, when truly facing the tribulation of lightning, the powerful heavenly might is enough to crush a cultivator's will, causing them to be unable to unleash even 80% of their strength."

Wang Yu suddenly realized that when he was building his foundation, he had spent a considerable amount of time learning about relevant information and the insights of his predecessors.

Later, I went to Guiling, but I never learned much about the key points of Dan formation.

His attention was focused on improving his essence, energy, and spirit, as these were the basic conditions for condensing the golden core. He was less familiar with external factors like the tribulation lightning.

It's embarrassing to admit, but I actually needed a rogue cultivator to explain things to him.

"Let's retreat to the edge of the secret realm first. The entrance to the Heavenly Soul Sect is a good place to cultivate for a while. These blood corpses shouldn't chase us that far."

"good."

After making up their minds, the two quickly retreated from the building ruins. Whenever they encountered blood corpses on the way, he would use his divine sense to check them for tokens or similar items.

If there is ice, remove it and freeze it; if not, freeze it directly.

These blood corpses are indeed terrifying, but once a method is found, dealing with them is relatively easy. Without considering the loss of true essence, the black ice he generates is enough to seal ordinary blood corpses for several years.

After more than half a day, they successfully broke out of the encirclement.

The entrance to the secret realm is the only place not shrouded in blood mist, which makes it feel relatively safe.

Splash—

Upon arrival, Wang Yu tossed down a pile of tokens, which clattered and piled up into a small hill.

Most of these are disciple orders, but there is also a distinction between inner and outer disciples.

The entire piece is covered in brownish-red rust, so mottled it's unbelievable. Whether it can still function remains to be seen after another inspection.

If the marks inside can be activated and react with the formations and restrictions within the Heavenly Soul Sect ruins, it means that it is still usable.

"Did you find anything like an elder's token or a sect leader's token?"

Does this count?

Taki still picked and chose, pulling out a piece from the broken copper and scrap iron. It had relatively little rust and was engraved with a large ancient character "天" (heaven).

Wang Yu then pulled out a token with the character "地" (earth) from it.

"Could it be... that the Heavenly Soul Sect distinguishes its members according to the Heavenly and Earthly Elders?"

"Here is a token of true inheritance, with a name engraved on the back."

After receiving it, Wang Yu couldn't help but mutter to himself, "I'm speechless."

"Soul Heaven Di..."

Seeing his strange expression, Taki still seemed quite interested.

Is there a problem with this name?

No, it's just a coincidence.

"The Heaven and Earth Elders' Tokens and this True Inheritance Token may all come in handy, so keep them safe."

"Should I take it?"

"Try it and see if you can repair them. Try using these ordinary disciple tokens first."

"I see."

Having grasped Wang Yu's meaning, Taki Yiran was somewhat excited.

“Brother Wang, my luck has improved a lot since I signed the contract with you and started working together. You can rest assured to leave this matter to me.”

Wang Yu did not answer, but spoke of luck.

He's always been the kind of person who's really bad, especially during the time he was a spirit slave, when his luck was absolutely terrible.

Whenever he thinks about it, he is encouraged to face his current predicament with even stronger willpower.

Of course, the Tianhun Sect ruins cannot be considered a predicament.

Although there were some troubles, they are mostly over, and we have gained a lot of benefits. The foundation of a sect is far more than just the dragon vein. The next target after the Scripture Pavilion is the medicine garden.

As he looked up, he caught a glimpse of the dark cracks in the sky and let out a long sigh.

"well--"

…………

…………

Several months later.

Wang Yu slowly withdrew his surging aura. Although the Dragon Vein Baptism did not allow him to break through, he benefited in terms of essence, energy, and spirit.

In just three years, the original upper limit of over 3,200 drops of true essence has increased by 500-600 drops, in addition to the increase in the placement slots and the months of arduous cultivation.

Finally, he surpassed 4,000 drops, and in early January of the 42nd year of his career as a steward, he successfully broke through to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment!

If you count the time, it's been five or six years since I came out. My progress is not slow, but it's not as much as I imagined either.

Next, we will continue to accumulate and expand the upper limit of true essence.

Once he reaches 6,000 drops, he will be able to reach the peak of the eighth level of Foundation Establishment and break through to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment in one fell swoop. Wang Yu felt that... even after the twenty-year agreement ends, he might not be able to condense a golden core.

There is still one tribulation-crossing treasure that Jin Miaoshan hasn't obtained yet. She definitely needs to get it before forming her core. She can communicate with Jin Manlou in Wandu Town.

Jin Manlou, who lives in Yunling Prefecture, is directly under the command of Jin Miaoshan, making it easy to contact him. He is also very concerned about the conflict between Zhuyue Prefecture and Jin Miaoshan.

After all, Guiling City is related to his cultivation resources after he forms his core, and at that time, it won't be so easy to gather a set of third-tier cultivation pills and spiritual medicines.

He was inevitably affected by the pressure from Zhuo Shouqing.

After the breakthrough in cultivation.

Wang Yu took out the Taiyin Nourishing Coffin. The shape of the Thunder Corpse was completely different from the intelligent Thunder Spirit Corpse in the Thunderfall Pit.

He possessed peak second-tier strength and his entire body was covered in purple lightning patterns.

Two fangs pressed against its dark lower lip, and its breath, even carrying a hint of deathly energy, crackled with lightning. Its bald head was engraved with lightning symbols, and it roared as soon as it emerged.

As if celebrating its birth, the corpse was much more powerful than the hunched Taiyin Sha Corpse. It belonged to the type that combined Jia and Sha, and could be approached or kept at a distance.

After examining it for a while, he used the Corpse Refining Technique to refine it again. After pushing everything to the limit, another zombie, completely wrapped in talismans, floated out of the Nourishing Evil Coffin.

It was the Golden Armor Corpse that was being controlled by the Thunder Corpse, which bit through the talisman and began to absorb the Golden Armor Corpse's essence.

It swallowed up a massive amount of corpse energy and the malevolent aura of the armored corpse.

Not long after.

It completely devoured the corpse pill as well.

From then on, the Golden Armor Corpse was completely destroyed, while the Thunder Corpse gained a great benefit. Wang Yu took out the Yin Lotus Lamp and began to improve the Thunder Corpse's realm using the Corpse Refining Technique.

Shake the corpse-suppressing bell every now and then to prevent the opponent from going out of control after advancing in rank.

Ten days later.

Wang Yu woke up Taki, who was focused on repairing the token.

He said with a serious expression.

"Prepare the Thunder Treasure Array Flags; the Thunder Corpse is about to undergo its tribulation."

Taki readily accepted and immediately began preparations.

"Use it from the very beginning?"

"No, let's wait until the Thunder Corpse can't take it anymore. It's different from a normal zombie. The lightning tribulation can bring it great benefits. Enduring as much as possible will help it advance in the future."

"I will keep a close eye on it."

"Relax, just pay attention to the power of the lightning tribulation, it will be your turn after that."

"Uh-huh--"

Rumble~

Unbeknownst to them, the sky above the secret realm was covered by dark clouds, and even the blood mist was forced to disperse, revealing the frozen Thunder Corpse below.

Normally, the chances of a zombie successfully transcending its tribulation are extremely low, and most zombies need the help of cultivators to prepare various magical treasures and formations for assistance.

Alternatively, one can use a special feng shui arrangement to resist the power of the lightning tribulation.

Lei Shi, however, was an exception.

Faced with the impending tribulation, it instinctively roared towards the swirling dark clouds. When the tribulation accumulated to a certain stage...

With a deafening roar, the heavens and earth seemed to be illuminated by this bolt of lightning.

With a hissing sound.

The white lightning struck the Thunder Corpse at a speed that was impossible to see, forcing out the purple lightning within its body, resulting in a riot of purple and white lightning.

Apart from the large crater blasted into the ground, the Thunder Corpse showed no obvious abnormalities. Even Wang Yu was amazed by this situation, and the Thunder Corpse truly lived up to its reputation as a peculiar species.

It is not afraid of lightning tribulations; on the contrary, they will become resources for its growth.

"sharp."

Taki still held the hand seals, ready to activate the twelve Thunder-Scattering Treasure Flags at any moment.

The Core Formation Tribulation is the first tribulation a cultivator faces in their cultivation journey, signifying that they have truly entered the inner sanctum of the path to immortality!

It won't happen many times; there will only be three bolts of lightning.

Only when he breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage will there be nine bolts of lightning.

The Thunder Corpse had already survived the first strike. The second lightning tribulation, its white body tinged with blue lightning, had nearly doubled in power as it hurtled down.

"Boom—"

This time, the Thunder Corpse was not so at ease. Its body turned charred black, and purple lightning runes lit up on its bald head, constantly absorbing the power of the lightning tribulation.

At that moment, the final bolt of lightning struck.

After a few breaths, Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief; he had successfully survived the tribulation!

As expected, the Thunder Corpse was special; its existence seemed to be for the purpose of undergoing tribulation, and it was also Wang Yu's refined corpse.

I wonder if it would work well if he used it as a lightning-blocking magic weapon during his tribulation.

"I feel like we can give it a try. Even if the demonic corpse can't overcome the tribulation, we can ask the thunder corpse for help. It would be beneficial for both sides."

Wang thought to himself.

On the other hand, the fact that she didn't have to use the Thunder-Scattering Treasure Array Flag also relieved Long Yiran. She was afraid that she might not have controlled the timing well and hurt Wang Yu's precious treasure.

Being able to withstand three lightning tribulations on one's own would be ideal.

Having conducted the experiment of the Thunder Corpse undergoing tribulation, both she and Wang Yu had a better understanding of the power of the Core Formation Thunder Tribulation.

Compared to the Nether Tiger Thunder, even the third thunder tribulation, which is the most powerful among the Core Formation Thunder Tribulations, is far inferior to the Nether Tiger Thunder.

This disparity is precipitous, demonstrating just how terrifying the power of the local forces truly is. One wonders if the Nine Twisted Peaks of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect also took this into consideration.

After storing the Thunder Corpse in the Nourishing Coffin to allow it to recover, Wang Yuchao asked, "How was the harvest?"

"It feels pretty good. Most importantly, I've gained a lot of insights into the unpredictability of divine power."

I recommend a friend's book, "The Farming Wizard, and Then He Grown a Witch?"

[Recommendation]: As the last wizard apprentice, I grew a witch?

——

Leo transmigrated to an elemental desert world abandoned by wizards.

A thousand years ago, the wizards went far away to conquer the multiverse.

As the only remaining wizard apprentice in this plane, Leo was in despair.

Such elemental wastelands cannot support the birth of a formal wizard.

Fortunately, he still has a cheat code.

A seed from a "divine tree" that accompanied him through his time travels, once planted, allows him to regard a certain area of ​​land as his "territory".

Clearing land, farming, raising livestock, mining... any activity that benefits the "territory" will provide nourishment for the sacred tree.

The growth of the divine tree not only expands the "pasture" but also breeds all sorts of wonders, giving birth to new extraordinary powers in this desolate land.

The day when the "territory" covers all planes will be the day when the "Emperor" ascends the supreme throne.

And it all began when Leo plucked the fruit from the divine tree and fed it to a young girl, thus giving birth to the world's first true witch...

——

"Witches are the world's greatest productive force."

Years later, Leo Lionheart, the First Celestial Wizard Emperor and Director of the Wizard Deception Bureau of All Realms, wrote the following in his memoirs:

"When your enemies accuse you of being the source of evil and possessing demonic power, you'd better actually be one, and even more powerful than they say."
