Chapter 218: Nascent Soul Realm?

The moment the final bolt of tribulation lightning fell, it looked like a spear. Along with that, it was as if another spear was rising up in the sky, ready to meet the lighting spear. This spear was invisible and was coming from Lin Wu.

The invisible spear was formed from his innate skill Radiation manipulation's effect. The spear collided with the lightning bolt and a loud explosion was heard.

~KABOOM~

The tribulation lightning split into three parts. One part of it hit the pillars of the Tribulation attenuation formation, one of them directly hit Lin Wu not being blocked by the formation, while the last one struck some distance away from the formation splitting the rocky ground in two.

A fissure could now be seen going from one side of the hill to the other. It was deep and its edges were red hot.

Lin Wu bore the brunt of the lightning and held on barely. Both of his cores were now fully covered with cracks and a strange aura could be felt coming from them. 

~huu~huu~huu~

Lin Wu took tired breaths as he reeled from the pain. His entire body was aching with menacing pain, and he could barely move. The tribulation clouds above him finally started fading and the top layer disappeared.

~Zoom~

Then in an instant, it was as if a tsunami of spirit Qi was released from Lin Wu. A storm started forming above him, in which the spirit Qi had gotten so dense that it was now visible to the naked eyes.

~Ding~

TRIBULATION ATTENUATION FORMATION: Deactivating

DAMAGE DETECTED: Formation integrity at 4%

~Shua~

The spirit Qi started pouring into Lin Wu's body and it started to heal at a great speed. The spirit Qi was from the atmosphere and was pure, due to being naturally condensed, it was rapidly absorbed.

The fine cracks that had appeared on the surface of his body also started to heal. Within Lin Wu's Dantian, a different scene could be seen. His Dantian was currently being bathed in copious amounts of spirit Qi and started to fill up.

After a minute or so, it was completely filled up and now the two cracked cores floated within it, like fish in water. 

Then, a blinding light came from Lin Wu's first core from between the cracks.

~shatter~

The core finally shattered and from within it, a tiny infant appeared. The infant had a emerald green skin and its eyes were closed. Lin Wu observed this infant and found it to have similar features like him when he was human.

"Why is in the form of a human when I'm a worm now?" Lin Wu wondered.

And just as he said this, a smoky grey light came from his second core.

~Shatter~

The second core shattered as well, and another infant was born from it. Except this time, the infant's skin was black in color. This infant had the same features as Lin Wu too.

Lin Wu looked on as the two infants sat cross legged with their backs to each other while the spirit Qi in his Dantian flowed around them, slowly nourishing their bodies.

With this, the process was finally complete and Lin Wu had officially broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.

The clouds in the sky dissipate completely, and the winds stopped as well. The spirit Qi storm was fully absorbed into Lin Wu's body as well, and silence descended in the forest.

Not a single beast dared to let out a cry, and everyone shivered in their place. 

Then all of the beasts suddenly started prostrating in the direction of the tomb, as a bloodline aura spread from there. Lin Wu too found himself being transported back to the place where he had the bloodline battle with the five rulers of the forest.

They too appeared there, but this time they were much more reserved. Lin Wu could see the fear in their eyes, and they did not challenge him this time. But what Lin Wu didn't see was that there wasn't just him standing there. Along with him, an outline could be seen that was black in color.

He didn't spend much time in that place, as the bloodline of the five beasts lost before they even started. The place started dissolving and Lin Wu returned back to the real world. His body descended to the ground, making it shake due to his weight.

He looked around at the destruction that was caused and felt a chill going through his body.

"Heavens! I survived… ~phew~" Lin Wu exclaimed.

He looked through the systems logs and saw all the notification.

"System, show me the updated host data." Lin Wu ordered.
