[Chapter 106] Yisheng's Tribulation
[Chapter 106] Yisheng's Tribulation
Recalling the situations that one would encounter when contracting the strange fire as described in the books, Nangong Chenyu walked a few steps to the edge of the thunder pool.
He first took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear, and then took off the space ring on his finger and the hair crown.
Then he used his spiritual energy to send all the things to the thatched hut not far away.
After doing all this, he said to the Flame of Thunder God floating in the center of the Thunder Pool: "I'm ready, let's start!"
The Flame of the Thunder God, which had originally restrained its own aura and became only the size of a thumb, suddenly grew dozens of times larger. Along with it was a purple-red air wave that swept outwards, stopped just one meter above the forbidden area, and then slowly retracted.
The scorching heat did not make Nangong Chenyu take a step back. He closed his eyes slightly, feeling the powerful aura emanating from the Yanlei God Flame, and predicted the current level of the Yanlei God Flame.
Before, when it was in the secret realm, even though the Yanlei Divine Flame devoured the fire-attributed treasures of heaven and earth in the magma pool, its level was still at the peak of level two.
After leaving the secret realm, Yan Lei Shen Yan has been restraining his own aura.
Therefore, Nangong Chenyu always thought that the Yanlei Divine Flame was at most level three.
It was not until this moment that he realized that the level of the Yanlei Divine Flame had reached level four.
It is not easy to refine the strange fire again.
Now he also wants to contract a strange fire that is two realms higher than his own. It requires a huge price and a firm will, and if he is not careful he might be burned to death by the Flame of Thunder.
If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely give up the contract with the Thunder God Flame and wait until his cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage before making another contract.
But Nangong Chenyu is not an ordinary person.
When he was going through the thunder tribulation in the foundation-building stage, he knew that his path of cultivation in this life would be more difficult than in his previous life. If he wants to break free from the constraints of heaven, he can only become stronger.
Now the Heavenly Dao can only deal with him when he is undergoing the tribulation, but no one knows whether the Heavenly Dao will use other means to deal with him in the future?
If he wants to survive, he must fight against the laws of nature.
If he doesn't have the corresponding strength, how can he fight against the way of heaven?
In the Xuanwu world, he is equivalent to the son of destiny. Heaven favors him, and his thunder tribulations are almost always brought down to the maximum extent that he can bear.
Once he traveled through time, although he had the golden finger of the storybook, he was no longer loved by the Heaven.
As expected, in life, how can everything go as planned and there be no complaints or sighs?
Take a deep breath.
Nangong Chenyu's eyes were fiery and determined. He could not retreat. Now, as long as he can contract and refine the Yanlei Divine Flame, his cultivation will be able to reach a higher level.
He took a step forward without hesitation and walked towards the purple flame that was emitting scorching heat. Every step he took felt like he was walking on a sea of fire, but he was not afraid at all.
Fortunately, his body-building technique successfully broke through the first stage, otherwise he would not be able to walk under the pressure of the Yanlei Divine Flame.
In less than half a minute, he was sweating profusely. The originally fair skin now looks like a boiled shrimp.
Step after step.
When Nangong Chenyu finally walked in front of the purple flame, he felt a strong burning sensation. It seemed that in the next moment, he would be burned to ashes by the purple flames in front of him.
Despite this, there was still determination in his eyes.
After exhaling a breath of foul air, Nangong Chenyu sat cross-legged and began to mobilize the spiritual energy in his body. Then he made seals with his hands and muttered something. Mysterious runes flew out from his fingertips and swirled around the purple flames in front of him.
As time passed, the purple flame of the Yanlei Divine Flame gradually became brighter, as if responding to Nangong Chenyu's call.
Suddenly, the Flame of the Thunder God jumped violently, bursting out with a dazzling purple light.
Nangong Chenyu's expression was solemn, and the purple flames reflected on his angular facial features, which gradually became distorted. He felt like he was being burned from the outside in.
Ascending to heaven and becoming an immortal has become his obsession, deeply rooted in his soul. Whenever he felt that he couldn't hold on any longer, this obsession would occupy his entire consciousness, making him feel unwilling.
Enduring the scorching heat of the flames, he kept practicing his skills, allowing the spiritual energy in his dantian to flow throughout his body.
After an unknown amount of time, a faint golden light began to emerge around Nangong Chenyu's body. The light grew brighter and stronger, and eventually intertwined with the purple flames to form a dazzling halo.
At this time.
A hot and powerful force instantly surged into Nangong Chenyu's body, and his entire body seemed to be surrounded by purple flames.
But at this moment, he no longer felt any pain, but instead felt an unprecedented comfort and strength.
Suddenly, Nangong Chenyu opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a flash of purple light in his eyes. Finally, after experiencing several dangerous moments, he successfully absorbed the Yanlei Divine Flame into his Dantian.
At this time, his cultivation level also leaped from the initial stage of foundation building to half-step golden elixir because of the Yanlei Divine Flame.
After packing up, he left the personal space.
As soon as he appeared, he found that there was no trace of Ye Yishen in the cave.
On a barren open space on Yunmiao Peak.
The sky was originally clear and cloudless, but suddenly it was covered with dark clouds. The sky seemed to be torn apart and a strong wind swept through. Thick dark clouds rolled over the sky, swallowing up all the sunlight.
Under the dark clouds, Ye Yishen sat cross-legged. He closed his eyes and concentrated, circles of faint spiritual light emanating from his body. Although he looked calm, he was actually very nervous and his heart was beating fast.
Whether Jun Han was going through the golden elixir thunder tribulation or Nangong Suhao was going through the foundation-building thunder tribulation, he and Nangong Chenyu were in seclusion. Therefore, he had never seen how others survived the tribulation.
Although he was worried, afraid, and nervous in his heart, there was an extremely determined light shining in his eyes, which was the persistence and desire for the path of cultivating immortals.
Suddenly, a silver-white lightning streaked across the sky and struck Ye Yisheng directly.
The more nervous he was, the clearer in Ye Yisheng's mind what Nangong Chenyu said about how to deal with the tribulation. He opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his pupils.
Even with weak legs, he still sat cross-legged, quickly forming seals with his hands, muttering something, and began to perform his defensive techniques.
Lightning struck the formation barrier.
The barrier was broken, and the defensive technique Ye Yishen used was also unable to defend against the lightning. The lightning struck his body instantly, making a deafening roar.
“Boom~”
Ye Yishen's body was enveloped by lightning, and he felt as if he was being burned by fire. Gritting his teeth, he endured the pain and didn't let himself make any sound.
At the same time, the spiritual energy in his dantian surged wildly, fighting against the lightning that fell on his body. With his body as the battlefield, the two seemed to be engaged in a fierce contest.
"It's OK. Although Ye Yisheng's thunder tribulation is quite powerful, he will definitely be able to survive it."
After saying this, Daoist Master Haoyan left.
His words made Nangong Suhao and Jun Han, who were watching, feel relieved.
Having learned from the experience of Nangong Chenyu's previous tribulation, after he had passed the tribulation, Jun Han asked the formation master in the sect to set up a lightning-inducing formation and a defensive formation specifically for tribulation at the special place for tribulation in Yunmiao Peak.
“I don’t know when Xiao Yu will come out of retreat.” Nangong Suhao sighed: “He didn’t get to see Yisheng transcend the tribulation, so he must have regrets later.”
“Or I can use the image stone to record the process of Yisheng’s tribulation.” Jun Han suggested.
Nangong Suhao's eyes lit up: "That's a good idea!"
As soon as he approached, Nangong Chenyu heard this and asked curiously, "What's a good idea?"
Nangong Suhao subconsciously replied, "The idea of using the image stone to record the process of Yisheng's tribulation."
After he finished speaking, he realized who had just spoken. When I turned around, I saw the familiar face of my second brother.
"Xiao Yu, are you out of quarantine?"
"Yeah." Nangong Chenyu nodded: "Brother, Brother Jun."
Jun Han nodded to Nangong Chenyu.
"You came at the right time. The lightning tribulation has just begun." Nangong Suhao said as he looked at Nangong Chenyu.
It would not matter if he did not look at it. Once he looked at it, Nangong Suhao discovered that Nangong Chenyu’s cultivation level was the same as his own. More importantly, Nangong Chenyu's cultivation was even more solid than his, and it didn't look like he had forced a breakthrough by taking some rare treasures.
How did Nangong Chenyu manage to break through three small realms in a row in just two months?
Thinking of this, Nangong Suhao asked: "Second brother, how come your cultivation has suddenly improved so much?"
Nangong Chenyu didn't hide it.
"I refined the strange fire, the Thunder God Flame."
Nangong Suhao slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, that's right, how could I have forgotten about that purple cloud!"
Nangong Chenyu set his eyes on Ye Yishen who was undergoing the tribulation.
After successfully taking on the first thunder tribulation, Ye Yishen was no longer as nervous as before. But his legs were still weak and he couldn't stand up. Fortunately, he was sitting cross-legged to overcome the tribulation, so there was nothing wrong with it.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, as if a huge piece of black velvet covered the entire sky.
The second bolt of lightning struck, illuminating the dark sky, and lightning as thick as a baby's arm struck straight towards Ye Yisheng.
Another formation barrier was broken by lightning.
Ye Yishen quickly formed seals again, concentrating on defensive techniques to resist the lightning. But the power of thunder and lightning is as hard to resist as a flood or a fierce beast. His clothes were singed black by the electricity and his skin began to show signs of burning.
"Puff~" He spat out a mouthful of blood.
He took the second thunder tribulation without any danger.
Standing outside the thunder tribulation, Nangong Chenyu witnessed the power of Ye Yishen’s thunder tribulation with his own eyes and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With the magic weapon on Ye Yisheng, he will definitely be able to successfully survive the thunder tribulation.
As time went by, the power of the thunder tribulation became stronger and stronger, and Ye Yisheng was obviously struggling to deal with it. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his body was shaking slightly.
But he looked up at the sky with a fearless gaze, as if he wanted to completely conquer the power of this thunder tribulation.
“Boom~”
Another thunderstorm is coming.
Ye Yishen took out the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella.
As soon as the umbrella opened, it enveloped him completely. Lightning struck the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella, and countless silver-white lightning bolts moved on it.
The Five Elements Lightning Proof Umbrella emitted a faint colorful light, and slowly, the lightning was completely swallowed by the Five Elements Lightning Proof Umbrella.
Ye Yisheng clearly felt that the aura of the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella was a little stronger than before. From this point of view, the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella should be a growing magic weapon.
Nangong Suhao, who had been watching from the outside, was surprised and said, "Yisheng actually has a magic weapon specifically for overcoming tribulations."
Jun Han: "It was given by the Grand Elder."
“Master, this is a great gift.” After saying that, Nangong Suhao thought of Nangong Chenyu’s thunder tribulation and couldn’t help but muttered softly, “I wonder if Master has any similar magic weapons.”
If there was, he would have to pester his master to trick him into getting such a magic weapon, and then give it to his second brother to help him overcome the tribulation.
Jun Han glanced at Nangong Chenyu who was focusing his attention on Ye Yishen, and then burst Nangong Suhao's fantasy.
"I have already asked Master, and Master said that Xiaoyu has to survive the thunder tribulation by himself. Even if Master has a magic weapon that can resist the thunder tribulation, he cannot give it to Xiaoyu."
"Master, when did you ask? How come I didn't know?" Nangong Suhao remembered that he and Jun Han had been inseparable since his second brother passed the tribulation.
"I asked you this a few days ago when Master was teaching you how to refine a flying sword. At the time, your attention was focused on the flying sword, so naturally you didn't pay attention to what I said to Master."
After a pause, Jun Han continued, "Master said that if he helps Xiao Yu, he will be punished by God. However, you are Xiao Yu's elder brother, you can help Xiao Yu."
Jun Han said regretfully: "However, with your current level of refining, you can't help Xiao Yu even if you want to."
He originally had no intention of telling Nangong Suhao about this matter now, as he wanted to wait for Nangong Suhao to gradually improve his weapon-refining skills. But plans cannot keep up with changes, and Nangong Chenyu's cultivation level suddenly broke through to the half-step golden elixir level.
Nangong Suhao: “…” There is no need to say the following sentence. It hurts.
Before I knew it, the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate, revealing a clear blue sky.
Although Ye Yishen was covered with wounds, his eyes were full of excitement and joy. He passed the foundation-building thunder tribulation and truly stepped into the threshold of cultivating immortals, getting one step closer to Nangong Chenyu.
The spiritual rain was dripping down, Jun Han stood still, Nangong Chenyu and Nangong Suhao walked towards the area covered by the spiritual rain at the same time.
The spiritual rain contains abundant pure spiritual energy.
This kind of spiritual energy can not only help the person who is undergoing the tribulation to quickly recover from the injuries caused by the tribulation, but also stabilize the realm that has just been promoted and provide a large amount of spiritual nourishment.
In short, spiritual rain has a nourishing and healing effect.
Because the healing power and spiritual energy in the spiritual rain will dissipate quickly, the spiritual rain cannot be collected.
Spiritual rain is seen as a reward for those who successfully overcome the tribulation.
In addition to directly affecting the person undergoing the tribulation, the spiritual rain can also have a certain effect on the surrounding creatures and plants.
This is also the reason why once someone in the sect is undergoing a tribulation, those who know about it will go and watch. Everyone comes here not only to gain insights, but also to be showered with the spiritual rain and to be nourished by it.
Yunmiao Peak is the mountain where the only supreme elder of Yunjue Palace lives. Even if everyone saw someone undergoing a tribulation at Yunmiao Peak, no one dared to go and watch.
If the cultivator who is being showered by the spiritual rain has a higher level of cultivation than the one who is undergoing the tribulation, the spiritual rain will have little effect on him. This is why Jun Han did not go to soak in the spiritual rain.
As the spiritual rain fell, the wounds on Ye Yishen's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the skin that was burnt by lightning gradually returned to normal.
