Chapter 238: Three Tribulations of Spirit, Qi and Soul, the Great Dao Pillar Is Bright
Shh——, a silver-white lightning strikes Ji Shang's azure body, and turns into countless thin lightnings, which instantly travel all over his body, and many parts of his body glow with white light.
And this silver-white lightning is just the beginning of the thunderstorm. Countless silver-white lightnings fall like raindrops, violent and violent. The originally gray sky in the Fengchi Fire Sea becomes as bright and clear as the outside world.
And Ji Shang not only needs to deal with the lightning, he also needs to deal with the fire beasts that keep coming from below. Being attacked from both sides at the same time, Ji Shang is not panicked, and he has not even used his magic or magic tools, relying on his body to resist.
This wave of thunder tribulation passed quickly, not even a quarter of an hour, but the thunder tribulation was so violent that even a breath seemed extremely long.
Wu Yi, who was affected by the aftermath of the thunder tribulation, was flashing with lightning and his hair stood on end. After the initial discomfort, Wu Yi actually felt that this feeling was good, but he soon stopped thinking so, and the thunder tribulation became more and more intense.
The silver-white lightning dissipated, and the dark clouds above gathered more and more, becoming thicker and thicker, and more and more depressing. The lightning dissipated, and it was pitch black above, and there was a sea of fire below, which made people feel like they were in hell.
A dark red color slowly appeared in the depths of the dark clouds, like blood that had lost its vitality, revealing a sense of weirdness and strangeness. The most frightening thing was that it seemed that there was a pair of eyes in the depths of the clouds peeping at you, full of murderous intent, and there was nowhere to escape.
In a depressing environment, waiting is the most painful thing. It can be said that the days are like years. I don’t know how many breaths have passed. The dark red lightning finally fell, and the speed was very slow, as if giving you a chance to linger in this world for a few breaths.
Wu Yi, who was involved in the range of the thunder tribulation, was also fortunate to get a ray of lightning. Compared with Ji Shang, it was naturally insignificant, but Wu Yi did not dare to slack off easily.
The silver-white lightning before was just an ordinary lightning, but the dark red lightning now is called the heart-piercing lightning. Of course, there are many similar names, such as the God-asking lightning, the heart-locking lightning, etc., which all refer to the same thing. The effect of this lightning is to test whether the cultivator's Yuan Ling is strong or not. In other words, it targets the soul.
In the path of cultivation, there are countless races, different physiques, various factions, and thousands of Taoist methods, but as long as you seek longevity, you can't escape the three paths of spirit, energy, and spirit. The heart-piercing lightning is generally encountered by the cultivators or those with strong souls.
The so-called golden elixir is the unity of spirit, energy, and spirit. Different grades are divided according to the degree of combination. Ordinary cultivators generally only encounter one kind of different lightning, and the grade of the golden elixir formed in this way can basically be estimated, which is the lower third grade, and there is no hope for the Yuanying.
Those with slightly better qualifications encounter two kinds of different lightning, and form a middle third grade golden elixir, and the Yuanying can be expected. Those with extraordinary qualifications have all three and form a top third grade golden elixir.
The one whose essence, energy and spirit are round and smooth is the first-grade golden elixir, which is rare in ten thousand and can see the cave heaven or even the beginning of the universe.
This is a way to infer the grade of the golden elixir by looking at the thunder tribulation, but it is not absolutely universal. Some cultivators will encounter the combination of thunder and lightning, which is more dangerous, but it also shows that the cultivator has stronger talent and deserves a stronger test from the heaven.
The dark red lightning seemed to not exist in reality, appearing from nothingness, and even the route could not be inferred. Wu Yi watched the lightning enter his fengmen, directly into the sea of consciousness, and directly take the Yuanling, which was extremely weird.
However, the weird lightning met the even weirder "Netherworld Sutra" scriptures. These Netherworld characters from the stone tablet world did not get Wu Yi's control, and jumped out by themselves, directly dissolving the dark red lightning, and the dark light shone brightly, full of mysterious meaning.
Wu Yi was stunned. He couldn't believe that the crisis was over. However, just like the ordinary lightning before, the dark red lightning was also extremely chaotic. The first lightning was just a pioneer.
Endless dark red lightning entered Wu Yi's sea of consciousness from the outside world. Wu Yi didn't even have the energy to observe how Ji Shang performed. He used all of it to resolve his own crisis.
The power of the scripture was beyond Wu Yi's imagination, but it also had its limits. Most of the lightning was removed by the scripture, but the remaining lightning also gave Wu Yi a splitting headache. There was no way to resolve this pain, so he had to endure it.
This pain was much more painful than when he practiced the Shadow Escape Method. It seemed to directly decompose your soul into particles and make you fly away.
At this time, a slightly strange voice appeared in the sea of consciousness. Wu Yi vaguely remembered that this was the reading method of the "Netherworld Sutra". At this time, the pain was unbearable and he needed to find other things to distract himself. Wu Yi continued to read along with the voice.
At the beginning, there was some lag, but after reciting a few sentences, Wu Yi's recitation became more and more fluent. As he recited these scriptures like flowing water, the scriptures suspended outside the Yuanling slowly entered the Yuanling, and the power of the dark red lightning was also decomposed bit by bit, becoming a resource for him to cultivate the Netherworld Dharma Body.
Wu Yi was not the first to use the thunder tribulation to cultivate, but there were not many who dared to cultivate under the thunder tribulation of others.
The duration of the heart-piercing thunder was shorter than the previous silver-white thunder. Wu Yi did not sense the heart-piercing thunder entering the sea of consciousness. He opened his eyes and found that the thunderclouds in the sky had changed color. He knew that the heart-piercing thunder was over, and he was disappointed. If it lasted for another moment, he would be able to cultivate the Netherworld Dharma Body. Now it was neither up nor down, which was very uncomfortable.
But the benefits he got now were also unimaginable. He had realized most of the scriptures of the Netherworld Sutra, and his Yuanling had doubled in size. From a distance, it seemed like a real body, but it could not leave the body. The spiritual consciousness was expanded, enough to cover a range of more than ten miles.
The next thunder tribulation was golden, and it also had a name, called the Golden Body Thunder. It targeted those who practiced power or had a strong body, breaking bones and dismembering bodies, peeling skin and removing flesh, extremely powerful.
It seems that the golden elixir formed by this dragon is at least of the middle third grade. I hope I won't be disappointed. Seeing another thunder tribulation falling, Wu Yi watched from afar and became more curious about Ji Shang. Dragon clan, this was the first time he had seen a dragon clan in his life. Until now, he had not suppressed his excitement.
The Golden Body Thunder had little effect on Ji Shang, who was born in the Dragon Clan. Occasionally, his flesh and blood exploded, but the elixir evil flowed and then recovered as before.
Even Wu Yi let the Golden Body Thunder hit the five-color glazed jade light without paying attention. It was also a good opportunity to test the effect of the five-color glazed jade light after Nirvana. The Golden Body Thunder could not break the five-color glazed jade light, but the golden arc was dazzling and blazing. It lasted for a quarter of an hour and then gradually stopped.
Looking at the newly appeared blue thunderbolt, Wu Yi said: "It seems to be a third-grade golden elixir, but I don't know what grade it is." As a bystander, he was naturally happy to see the excitement, broaden his horizons, and lay the foundation for his own elixir in the future.
Blue thunderbolt is called Qi-killing thunderbolt, which rots tendons and breaks veins, isolates the seven orifices, and erodes the sea of qi. It is aimed at qi cultivation. In life, the spirit is above and the essence is below. It all depends on qi to flow in the center to transport and communicate the three. The importance of qi is naturally needless to say.
When the Qi-killing thunderbolt fell, the five-colored glazed jade light outside Wu Yi's body was useless, like a stone passing through the water curtain and entering the meridians.
This Qi-killing thunderbolt looked full of vitality, but it was extremely vicious. Wu Yi, who was unable to react in time, had many tendons and veins corroded and invaded. Facing this thunderbolt, Wu Yi had no other choice but to use his true light to consume it bit by bit with the Qi-killing thunderbolt, which was the most difficult to deal with.
This catastrophe lasted for a quarter of an hour. Wu Yi consumed a lot of true light. Even though he gained a lot after Nirvana, he felt very distressed. He cursed the black beetle in his heart. The benefits were not as great as he said. He was going to lose money.
The three catastrophes had passed, the dark clouds dissipated, and the sense of being watched gradually disappeared. If it were not for the occasional residual lightning in the air, it would be hard to tell that there had been a catastrophe here before.
Ji Shang, who had survived the catastrophe, had a mellow and transparent breath and divine light in his eyes. At this time, he could be said to be a real Jindan Zhenren.
He finally became a Jindan Zhenren. Ji Shang's long-suppressed emotions burst out, and he laughed wildly at the sky, so much so that he cried with joy and even forgot to chase Wu Yi. Born in an imperial family, he was also a poor man.
But things were far from over. Ji Shang, who had just broken through, was full of momentum, and his Dao rhyme spread out. He was so powerful that he completely angered the Phoenix Will.
The fire beasts that had previously caused Ji Shang no pain disappeared one after another. With a clear sound, the fire phoenix emerged from the magma, and its strength had reached the level of Jindan cultivation.
Ji Shang, who had just broken through, had to fight with this fire phoenix. This was a real fight between a dragon and a phoenix. Wu Yi felt that it was almost time to leave, but he heard the annoying voice of the black beetle again.
"Steal the power of the two and open the last two pillars of the avenue." The voice of the black beetle had a bewitching charm, but Wu Yi was really tempted.
But after all, both of them were Jindan cultivation, and he did not dare to steal them head-on. Although he felt that he might not be able to fight with ordinary Jindan Zhenren for one or two moves, to be honest, these two were not ordinary Jindan Zhenren, so he had to be more realistic.
Leaping into the magma, the five-colored glazed jade light pushed away the magma, and Wu Yi approached the battle site like a swimming fish.
The Qi swept across, and even under the magma, Wu Yi could sense the aftermath of the battle. The magma was splashed from time to time, showing how fierce the battle was. Wu Yi had no choice but to continue sinking and hiding.
"They are so powerful, I don't have a chance to take advantage of them!" Wu Yi asked the black beetle in his heart. The reason why he was able to steal the power of the Green Bamboo King last time was because the Green Bamboo King and Li Yunyong competed for control of the bamboo giant, giving Wu Yi a chance to fish in troubled waters, but now it is obviously not possible.
The black beetle's answer was very simple, with only one word, that is: "Wait."
The advice given by the black beetle is always so unreliable. Wu Yi silently complained, but there was no other way.
This wait was an hour. After a recent breakthrough, he was able to fight with the Phoenix Will for so long. Ji Shang's strength can be seen.
But strength has its limits. Phoenix Will has the understanding of the Dao at the level of Yuanying. Ji Shang finally showed signs of decline. He was fanned by Phoenix Will's wings and fell into the magma, splashing magma. Phoenix Will took advantage of the situation and flew to the magma. The two fought in the magma again, and they were getting closer and closer to Wu Yi.
The visibility in the magma was actually not high. Even if the spiritual consciousness was unfolded, nothing could be seen. It was difficult to find anything beyond a hundred meters. Wu Yi followed behind the two and absorbed some of the Dao rhyme that remained from their battle.
It was actually very simple to absorb Dao rhyme. It was okay if the Dao rhyme of the same category met, but if it was Dao rhyme of different categories, they would inevitably fight and resist. Wu Yi quietly displayed his Dao rhyme of Jingzhi Dao, and the remaining Dao rhyme attacked Wu Yi one after another. Wu Yi introduced it little by little into the Dao pillar in the bead.
But the remaining Dao rhyme itself dissipated quickly. Wu Yi collected it for an hour and didn't get much. Moreover, Ji Shang and Phoenix were not fighting in the magma all the time, which brought Wu Yi a lot of trouble.
Looking up at the two figures in the sky, Wu Yi thought: It seems that there is only one way. If I had known this earlier, why would I have waited until now?
Wu Yi no longer hid, and rushed out of the magma, making a gesture to attack the two. Sure enough, Ji Shang and Fenghuang stopped temporarily and attacked Wu Yi, an outsider.
Wu Yi was no match for the two of them. Half of his bones were broken and he fell heavily from the sky, but Wu Yi had already collected the Dao Yun he wanted.
Regardless of his injuries, Wu Yi observed whether the Dao Yun he had obtained from self-mutilation was enough, but the result made him very worried and angry. He needed to self-mutilate three times.
Recover, self-mutilate, recover, and self-mutilate again...
"What does this boy want to do?" Ji Shang knew that Wu Yi must have some unknown thoughts at this time. He made up his mind that if Wu Yi appeared again, he would not attack him. However, after waiting for a long time, Wu Yi did not appear, and his doubts in his heart became heavier.
Wu Yi, who had collected all the Dao Yun, was now in the deepest part of the magma. His mind entered the bead and watched the black beetle cast a spell.
After the Avenue Pillar was lit, the black beetle could open the treasure of the Burning Emperor. Wu Yi was looking forward to it.
