Zhongli Tingzhou absorbed almost half of the purple thunderbolt, and less than half of it fell on the barrier of Nameless Peak, failing to cause much waves.
The calamity clouds in the sky seemed to be angry again, and this time the thunder calamity took longer to brew than the previous one.
The gloomy dark clouds were constantly emitting flashes of purple lightning, each one thicker than the last.
This time it took a quarter of an hour to brew, and the lightning in the calamity cloud gathered into a thicker and stronger purple lightning, making a buzzing sound, and roared towards Zhongli Tingzhou who dared to provoke it.
Zhongli Tingzhou looked up at it. His tiny figure looked even weaker against the powerful purple lightning. It seemed as if he and the lightning were the only ones left in the world.
Even though they knew he might be fine, everyone still couldn't help but feel worried when they saw this scene.
This purple lightning was obviously more powerful than the previous one, and the faint pressure it emanated made the disciples' scalps tingle.
"This legendary great-grandmaster is surprisingly so powerful."
"Yeah, I don't even dare to take the blue lightning tribulation head-on, but others have already started using the purple lightning tribulation to temper their bodies."
"I was very curious before, why did Grandmaster Uncle accept a person whose qualifications are not particularly outstanding as his apprentice? Now it seems that I am indeed too young."
A senior brother in the Nascent Soul stage said speechlessly, "It has only been three months since we started, from the foundation-building stage to the Nascent Soul stage. Isn't this considered outstanding? Then how miserable our aptitude must be."
"Oh, I have been practicing for a full twenty years from the foundation-building stage to the Nascent Soul stage."
"I am the one who wants to cry. When this great-grandmaster initiated me, I was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Now he is in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, and I am still in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. I have not seen the end of the middle stage yet."
At Dahe Peak, a young disciple was looking at Zhongli Tingzhou in the sky with a complicated expression. He was Bi Qingling.
When he first joined Zixiao Sect, his cultivation level was the same as Zhongli Tingzhou's. Now, three months have passed, and he is already in the Nascent Soul stage, but he is still working hard to form a golden elixir.
At first he thought they were the same, and fantasized about supporting each other and working together after joining Zixiao Sect. But now, the distance between them has become a chasm.
Bi Qingling sighed helplessly, it was a pity that talent was innate.
Two hours later, the calamity cloud that had been acting so domineering as if it had taken an aphrodisiac began to lose its strength and dissipated slowly and unwillingly, as if the effect of the drug had worn off. It didn't even realize that it had picked the wrong target, just like when it clearly asked you to come with big breasts, but the one who showed up was flat-chested.
"He is worthy of being the disciple chosen by Uncle Zixiao. After this baptism of thunder, the problem of his rapid improvement in cultivation has also been solved." Elder Tian Wu said with emotion. If Yijun was like him, he wouldn't have to worry so much. But he didn't have such a son until he was a thousand years old, and he couldn't bear not to love and spoil him.
Improving cultivation too quickly will lead to an unstable foundation, and its disadvantages may not be reflected so quickly for a while, but as the cultivation level continues to improve, this disadvantage will become more and more obvious. In the end, not only will it be impossible for strong people of the same level to challenge each other across levels, but even strong people of the same level may find it very difficult to fight.
“But how many people like him dare to challenge the purple thunder tribulation with his Nascent Soul body?” Hou Wanshan said.
They can be counted on one’s fingers, everyone thought so in their hearts.
That’s why he can stand out and succeed. What is a top genius?
In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, top-level geniuses are geniuses who can make rapid progress in their cultivation just by practicing. But who knows that although they have high qualifications, the efforts and prices they pay are beyond the reach of others.
There is a saying in the secular world that only those who have endured the most hardships can become the best. Many people agree with this saying. Having qualifications does not necessarily mean being strong, but those who can endure hardships must have a strong and fearless heart. Such people, regardless of their cultivation, are already far ahead in realm. No matter how poor their qualifications are, they can still go further than geniuses.
Some disciples have poor aptitude. When they see others have higher cultivation than themselves and have made breakthroughs, they will complain that others have higher aptitude than themselves and that their cultivation has not improved at all. It is not that they do not work hard, but that their aptitude is not good. This idea is wrong. Therefore, when Zixiao Sect recruits disciples, it first looks at their character and then their aptitude.
If the character is good, they will make an exception and accept the child no matter how poor his aptitude is. If the character is not good, they will not accept him no matter how high his aptitude is, even if he is a genius.
As the thunder tribulation dissipated, Gao Han in the hut could feel that the threat hanging over his head had disappeared, even though he didn't even see the shadow of the thunder tribulation from beginning to end.
In the scorching flames, a black long sword was quietly suspended. Although the temperature was very high, the long sword exuded a chilling coldness.
The sword body was smooth and flowing, as if it had been polished tens of thousands of times by a blacksmith, and the surface was cold and shining. He did not add too many patterns, and it looked ordinary like his knife.
This was the first time Gao Han saw the magic weapon. Just by looking at it, he could feel its extraordinaryness.
Just as he was about to find another restriction to get through, the sword suddenly made a buzzing sound, forcefully broke free from his restraints, and flew out quickly.
Gao Han remembered that the book mentioned that the immortal weapon would fly away after being refined, so he hurriedly chased after it.
The magic weapon flew out of the hut and rushed straight into the sky, trying to break through the clouds and leave.
Gao Han was just about to capture it when he suddenly stopped and watched the magic weapon break through the thick clouds. It was not afraid of lightning, and even absorbed the lightning drawn from all directions, and rushed into the sky with an invincible force.
Boom, it made a very loud noise.
Gao Han waited for a while before flying into the air, avoiding the thunderclouds. He saw the sword suspended in the air, with the tip of the sword facing the sky, constantly making a buzzing sound. The sound became more and more urgent, as if it wanted to pierce through the things that were blocking it and fly away. From then on, the sea and sky were vast and open for it to roam freely.
I stab, I stab, I stab!
That layer of transparent barrier, apart from emitting a faint light, could never be broken.
The long sword suddenly became anxious. The enemy was too strong. I would not fight him head-on. I would attack from other places. So it changed direction and flew to the other end of the barrier. It continued to use the tip of its sword to stab the barrier with force. The result was obvious.
If the barrier set up by Master Tiandao could be broken so easily, the previous thunder tribulation outside Wuming Peak would have already poked a hole in Wuming Peak.
Gao Han watched with his own eyes as the sword went from being overjoyed to being furious, poking here and there, and finally, after being so badly hit, it simply lay on the ground like a spoiled child, refusing to move.
It's like a person who escaped from a cage and thought he was free, but finally found out that he was still in a bigger cage. This cage is stronger, so strong that it makes you despair, until you lose the will to resist. There is no way to escape. Why should I escape? I will be caught back anyway. I am too lazy to struggle.
Gao Han walked over and picked it up. He was actually very surprised that he could refine a magic weapon. At first he just wanted to give it a try and did not hold too high expectations. It did not matter even if all the materials were wasted. In the end, he still persisted.
In order to refine this immortal weapon, he added a lot of formations. There were more than 300 formations alone, densely packed and covering every corner. If he had not had some time to make up for his knowledge of formations, he might not have been able to break into so many formations. He also had to link these formations one by one, which was extremely difficult. If it had not been for a strange energy that suddenly surged out of his body at the critical moment, helping him stabilize, he would have failed long ago. It was really luck that he was able to refine the immortal weapon on the first try.
Gao Han put away his sword and took out the jade communication slip that had been flashing non-stop. As soon as it lit up, someone's voice was heard.
"Open the door."
Gao Han smiled and immediately opened the barrier. Zhongli Tingzhou, who had been waiting outside, rushed in immediately.
Sect Leader Bai asked Yuan Ran to evacuate everyone, and then he and several peak masters rushed over. When they were about to go in, the small door opened by the barrier suddenly closed, and everyone was blocked outside in an instant.
“…”
In order to avoid the lord losing face, the kind-hearted Qian Feng said, "Lord, doesn't he know that we are also outside?"
Sect Master Bai said seriously, "Senior Tiandao doesn't like outsiders, and Uncle Gao doesn't dare to disobey him. The barrier can't be opened for too long. Let's notify him again."
When Gao Han saw Zhongli Tingzhou, he immediately noticed that his aura was a little different. His whole body was filled with a violent aura of thunder and lightning, and there seemed to be a faint smell of burning.
"Where have you been? Why is there a burning smell?"
"I did so much, but you only noticed that I was burnt?" Zhongli Tingzhou said dissatisfiedly.
Gao Han was stunned. "What did you do? By the way, what's wrong with your body? It seems to be filled with a lot of energy."
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately took off the black robe he had just put on. If he didn't want others to stare at his naked body like a monkey, he would not have put on this robe before meeting Gao Han.
Gao Han saw his upper body and realized where the burnt smell came from. He blurted out, "Were you struck by lightning?"
"Did you notice that I was struck by lightning?" Zhongli Tingzhou's eyes widened, as if he would do something if you said something he didn't want to hear.
Gao Han: "...She has a good figure."
Zhongli Tingzhou then revealed a satisfied smile, "I think so too."
Gao Han shook his head helplessly, shamelessly, "Put on your clothes, Sect Leader Bai and the others are coming in."
Zhongli Tingzhou had a gloomy expression. He had just given his presentation for a short while, and these guys came at this very moment instead of earlier or later.
A moment later, Sect Master Bai and several peak masters who were let in rushed over. Suddenly, they found a particularly piercing gaze. They were stunned, and the next second they met Zhongli Tingzhou's cold eyes. They were all confused.
What's wrong with this ancestor? They just came in, and he must have not offended them. His mood is as unpredictable as snow in June, and they can't figure it out no matter how hard they try.
However, thinking of the scene of this ancestor displaying his divine power outside just now, the peak masters who were originally quite anxious and wanted to see the immortal weapon refined by Gao Han finally calmed down one by one and were no longer anxious. They silently retreated to behind Sect Master Bai, who instantly stood out.
