Chapter 1199 - The Tribulations (III)

Yang Junshan knew he was taking a risk!

The truth was that he was not as risky as he was now!

The moment Yang Junshan was engulfed by the lightning that came from the lightning tribulation, he understood that even though the lightning tribulation’s power had increased by three folds because he was in the lightning swamp, passing through three lightning tribulations was still noroblem for him.

The real difficulty was just how high he would be able to reach in the process of his thunder tribulation!

If it was said that he had yet to face a lightning tribulation and was still in awe of the thunder tribulation, only hoping to use the Heaven Shaking Immortal Technique as his baseline, then in the moment the thunder tribulation descended, he had already changed his mind. A life immortal art was simply unable to satisfy his wild hopes of instantly increasing his life force in one second, at least before the three thunder tribulations ended, he would need to master his life immortal technique as well!

Because of this, when the tribulation lightning carried the will of heaven and earth down, he was no longer in awe, but was instead happy. He was even upset that he was unable to timely refine as much of the will of heaven and earth as he could, and what was even more outrageous was that in order to increase the speed at which he could refine the will of heaven and earth, as well as devour the heaven and earth origin energy, he did not hesitate to lower his own strength at the price!

Traditionally, the Great Divine Cultivator had always been afraid that his own strength was not enough to resist the lightning tribulation, and had done everything he could to increase his own strength. For example, during Yang Junshan’s tribulation, he had felt that he had been struck too lightly by the lightning tribulation and had not hesitated to lower his own resistance.

When he used the Heavenly and Earthly Abilities, his body doubled in size, allowing him to bathe in even more lightning. When he used the Heavenly and Earthly Abilities, his body doubled, allowing him to bathe in even more lightning, his originally materialized primordial spirit, due to the increase in his physical body, also became dispirited, but when he was able to come in contact with the Tribulation Lightning Essence even more fully, the vast amount of heaven and earth origin energy and the will of heaven and earth entered his dantian.

However, just as he was about to successfully condense the seed of a life immortal technique in his Dantian, Yang Junshan suddenly felt the usage of the will of heaven and earth and vitality around him slowing down, and at the same time, the immense pressure on his body and primordial spirit suddenly lightened up. When he raised his head in shock, he saw that the first lightning tribulation had already passed.

Yang Junshan could not help but smack his lips, his heart feeling extremely regretful. Just a little bit more and the seed of the Immortal technique would be condensed successfully, but right at this moment, the first lightning tribulation suddenly ended, so how could it not last a bit longer, even if it was just for a few breaths of time!

From ancient times until now, he had felt regret over the end of the lightning tribulation. It was as if this was the first time this had happened!

However, from Yang Junshan’s point of view, it was indeed so. If he could complete the first seed of the Immortal Art before the first lightning tribulation ends, he would then have more time to condense the second life immortal ability, and also spare more energy to deal with the lightning tribulation. One must know that the three lightning tribulation was stronger than the last, and even though he was extremely confident in passing the lightning tribulation, it did not mean that he had lost heart.

Yang Junshan quickly retracted his mind, dispersing the Heavenly and Earthly Abilities, and retracted his Primordial Spirit Appearance Mantra. The blood vessels in his body surged likiver, and the tyrannical cultivation base instantly burst with vitality, used to recover his severely injured body from the lightning tribulation. At the same time, because of the weakening of the will of heaven and earth, the process of condensing the life immortal abilities had stopped, so Yang Junshan could only gather the vigorous nine man true energy in his dantian, quietly awaiting the arrival of the second lightning tribulation.

In fact, the tribulation cloud above Yang Junshan’s head did not give him much time to recover either, rolling thunder continued to travel back and forth within the tribulation cloud, likungry ferocious beast that was about to be released from its cage. The moment the tribulation cloud split open, what that popped out from within was no longer the tongue of a primordial lightning beast, but the sharp claws of a heavenly beast, grabbing onto the might of the heaven and earth and pressing it down towards the tiny Yang Junshan!

Rumble rumble rumble!

Smoke and dust, which were several tens of meters tall, shot up into the sky from all around Yang Junshan. The ground beneath his feet was instantly pressed intuge pit which was several tens of meters wide by the tribulation lightning that fell from the sky. Countless rays of lightning moved around him like fish, seemingly ripping everything that Yang Junshan faced into shreds.

But just when he was facing such a dangerous situation, Yang Junshan actually let oueavy sigh of relief amidst the lightning: The Heaven Shaking Immortal Technique’s life force immortal ability seed had been successfully condensed!

To an ordinary Lightning Calamity cultivator, if they were careless for even a moment, it would be enough to cause the meridians in their body to burst and tear. However, the nine man true energy’s characteristic of being as refined as a mountain, was that it could suppress the heaven and earth origin energy for the moment it was absorbed, and then easily assimilate it.

However, in the face of such a ferocious lightning tribulation, Yang Junshan actually still chose to focus most of his energy on condensing his innate divine ability seed. The turbulent will of heaven and earth was almost not released at all, as it was completely refined and absorbed by the seed, causing the Heaven Shaking Immortal Technique, which was originally only left with one last step, to completely take shape.

Since the seed of the Heaven Shaking Immortal Technique’s ability had been successfully condensed, then Yang Junshan’s purpose of going through the Thunder Tribulation this time was already half accomplished!

However, he still did not dare to relax. His body was currently being damaged by the lightning, and his primordial spirit was also constantly being reassembled by the lightning.

Under the heavy pressure of the tribulation lightning, the potential that Yang Junshan had accumulated for the past two hundred years was being awakened. Because of the body tempering technique, life force that was hidden in his skin, flesh, tendons, bones, organs, and marrow was being released, causing his damaged body to constantly recover. At the same time, the tribulation lightning energy that was deep within his body was constantly being torn apart.

Not only was he greedily absorbing the will of heaven and earth contained within the tribulation lightning, he was also absorbing the pure Yang energy contained within the tribulation lightning. Once the Lightning Calamity was complete, he would nurture a dao embryo that contained pure Yang energy within his dantian, which could also be called a “dao fruit”.

Furthermore, in the process of Huang Ting’s cultivation, at the same time, it was also the process of the nurturing of the dao fruit turning inture Yang fruit. If, in the process of Lightning Calamity, the primordial spirit absorbed more pure Yang energy, then the starting point of the ‘dao fruit’ that was condensed from the very beginning would undoubtedly be higher.

At the same time, once the Pure Yang True Soul was formed, that also meant that Huang Ting had reached the peak of his cultivation. The next step was naturally for the True Soul to reform and also for the Pure Yang True Spirit to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

What Yang Junshan needed to do now was to do his best to maintain his physical body as much as possible under the destructive power of the tribulation lightning. At the same time, his primordial spirit would do its best to absorb the energy of heaven and earth as well as the pure Yang energy from the tribulation lightning without suffering heavy injuries.

It had to be said that the current Yang Junshan was so ambitious that he looked like he was courting death, but in fact, to outsiders, he looked like he was courting death!

In a life or death situation, he actually still dared to wholeheartedly triple-task. Furthermore, he had already succeeded in condensing his Immortal Deity Technique. In the eyes of others, this was not only superfluous, but also insatiable.

However, don’t forget, the immortal spell Innate Primeval Qi may not be as good as the Heaven Shaking Immortal Technique, but in order to condense this life immortal art, one first had to condense the Dao Techniques and Divine Powers into a cost life ability!

However, its two extended Dao Techniques and Divine Powerad long since been refined by Yang Junshan into a life force dao technique. As a result, in order to successfully condense the latter, the difficulty as well as the amount of time required would not necessarily be worse than the former!

When the “Eastern Amethyst Qi Formula” finally condensed into Yang Junshan’s fourth Dao Techniques and Divine Powers, half of the second lightning tribulation had already passed. More importantly, with his heart focused on using three uses and the strengthened power of the lightning tribulation far surpassing the first time’s lightning tribulation, Yang Junshan no longer dared to take the risk of using the “Heavenly Transformation” ability again, which also meant that the time it took to condense the second life immortal ability was most likely longer than the first life immortal ability!

However, things had already gotten to this point, it was already useless for him to retreat, so Yang Junshan could only muster up the courage to continue attempting to condense the second path of the Destiny Immortal Art ‘Innate Qi’.

The power of the lightning tribulation had become even more intense, like the claws of a sky-upholding giant beast that had been pressing down on him back and forth, determined to crush his prey to pieces. However, Yang Junshan, who was viewed as his prey by the lightning tribulation as an indestructible copper pea, looked as though his eyes were about to tear apart, his clothes were in tatters, and the blood that was seeping out from his body had turned into red-black ashes under the heat of the lightning tribulation. However, he just happened to block the second lightning tribulation.

When the brilliance between heaven and earth disappeared, Yang Junshan, who looked extremely pathetic right now, heaved a sigh of relief. His internal organs started to churn, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of hot, black blood. Before this mouthful of black blood could even land on the ground, he had already turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.

“It’s still quite some distance away. I was too careless this time and underestimated the power of thunder tribulation. If I remember correctly, the third lightning tribulation not only covered my body with liquid, but would also directly harm my soul sea!”

Countless thoughts flashed through Yang Junshan’s mind, yet, he took a deep breath, and the heaven and earth origin energy around him, that was left from the thunder tribulation, was immediately devoured by him like a swallow returning to its nest.

After Yang Junshan’s Five Elements Lightning Light Dao Formation was formed in the Western Mountain, he had helped the two Daoists get through the thunder tribulation continuously, and even personally experienced the might of the thunder tribulation three times. Aesult, compared to other cultivators, even with the guidance of a senior expert, it was still not comparable to his own personal experience.
