Lu Ping opened to check.
He wanted to see what effects the Celestial Thunder Pool had.
The details of this item unfolded.
[Celestial Thunder Pool: Six-Star]
[Effect: Once established, the celestial thunder in the pool can strengthen, temper, and purify the cultivator's physical body, only for use by cultivators below the Nascent Soul Stage]
[Reputation: 2100]
...
The ability to produce celestial thunder to strengthen, temper, and purify the cultivator's body is sowhat akin to the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation's strengthening of a cultivator's Dao body.
In the sa realm, if a cultivator's Dao body is strong, they can even use it to crush opponents.
In ancient tis, there were cultivators who specialized in the path of body refining to forge a powerful Dao body.
Having personally experienced celestial thunder body tempering, Lu Ping knew well how much it could enhance the Dao body.
The Celestial Thunder Pool definitely needed to be redeed.
But, not right now.
At least not until returning to the Cyan Mountain Sect.
After briefly browsing the new items in the System Mall, Lu Ping put the system away.
He thought for a while and expanded his Divine Sense to explore the surroundings.
With the exploratory range provided by the Divine Sense at the Nascent Soul Stage, even Lu Ping couldn't help but marvel at the gap between Golden Core cultivators and Nascent Soul cultivators.
When his Divine Sense swept across the Nine Sword Peaks, Lu Ping's attention was drawn to Chunjun Peak.
"Hmm... she's still at Chunjun Peak."
Murmuring to himself, Lu Ping imdiately flew towards Chunjun Peak.
Ancestor Jiang was still at Chunjun Peak, trying to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage. He wondered how things were going, whether she had successfully ford her Nascent Soul.
Lu Ping was particularly concerned about Ancestor Jiang.
Speeding through the air, Lu Ping unfolded the power of the Nascent Soul Level, moving at an astonishing speed. Even without relying on magical artifacts, his figure in the air almost turned into a streak of light.
Lake Heart Island was about a thousand miles away from Chunjun Peak, and in just a mont, Lu Ping was approaching Chunjun Peak.
As one of the Nine Sword Peaks, Chunjun Peak was not prominent in appearance, but because Ancestor Jiang was in secluded cultivation here, it had recently beco very lively, with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and Five Elents Essence Qi converging.
Lu Ping slowed down and landed on Chunjun Peak.
As he looked around, he quickly saw a figure sitting cross-legged alone on the summit of Chunjun Peak.
It was none other than Ancestor Jiang.
Observing the surrounding situation, Lu Ping could clearly see that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and even the Five Elents Essence Qi, were in a turbulent state.
These spiritual energies surged towards Ancestor Jiang as if they had a life force of their own, like rivers flowing into the sea, madly rging into her body.
"She is forming her Nascent Soul."
Seeing this scene, Lu Ping's expression shifted.
He was all too familiar with such a spectacle.
When he ford his Nascent Soul, it was the sa scene.
As Lu Ping arrived, Ancestor Jiang's Divine Sense remained expanded.
She noticed Lu Ping's arrival imdiately and was silently delighted.
However, due to being at a crucial stage of forming her Nascent Soul, she couldn't afford to be distracted to greet Lu Ping.
Lu Ping stood not far from Ancestor Jiang, closely monitoring the progress of her Nascent Soul Formation.
As the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and Five Elents Essence Qi continued to gather and flow into Ancestor Jiang's Dantian, her Golden Core began to shatter, turning into a liquid state.
This process of forming the Nascent Soul did not take long.
In a matter of monts, the liquid Golden Core solidified and ford, taking on the features of an infant, complete with facial features and limbs, taking the shape of a Nascent Soul.
"Is this the condensation of a Five Elents Ancestral Infant?"
Lu Ping's gaze sharpened as he realized the difference in Ancestor Jiang's Nascent Soul formation this ti.
With his Nascent Soul Stage Divine Sense, a slight probe revealed the uniqueness of Ancestor Jiang's Nascent Soul, sensing the power of the Five Elents: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
These Five Elents powers were familiar to Lu Ping.
They were precisely the powers represented by the sword forms of Dragon Abyss, Gan Jiang, Zhanlu, Red Sky, and Ta'e.
These five sword forms symbolized the power of the Five Elents.
This ti, Ancestor Jiang clearly intended to form the Five Elents Ancestral Infant.
The idea was admirable.
Whoosh!
As Lu Ping continued to watch, within Ancestor Jiang, the nascent form of the Nascent Soul opened its tiny mouth, frantically absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi, gradually becoming more defined and real, fully transforming into the form of a Nascent Soul.
At that mont, above her head and the top of Chunjun Peak, clouds of tribulation began to gather, the winds and clouds stirred between heaven and earth.
The Nascent Soul Tribulation Clouds were forming, instantly accompanied by a rumbling sound, with thunder raging within the tribulation clouds.
The Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation had appeared.
This developnt caused Ancestor Jiang's expression to be sowhat tense.
She bit her lip in secret; to successfully enter the Nascent Soul Stage, she had to brace herself to face these thunders.
Ancestor Jiang's crossing of the tribulation began.
Compared to Lu Ping, the process of Ancestor Jiang crossing the tribulation took a bit longer.
There were a total of six Nascent Soul Thunders, each one stronger than the last.
The initial three thunders were handled effortlessly by Ancestor Jiang, passing without danger, with her Dao body imbued with divine might under the baptism of the thunders.
During the last three, by the ti Ancestor Jiang endured the first two, her face was quite pale, giving off the feeling that another thunder would lead to her demise.
Fortunately, when facing the sixth thunder, Ancestor Jiang preemptively summoned a lotus-shaped artifact, emitting a silver-white glow, shielding her body.
This artifact, nad the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus, was a Tier Five High-Grade Spiritual Artifact.
Seeing the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus, Lu Ping glanced at it, intrigued.
To Lu Ping, this was a novel item.
He was seeing it for the first ti and surmised that it was a magical artifact that could aid Ancestor Jiang in tribulation crossing, full of wondrous uses.
The Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus was not designed for battle, as its power was not outstanding among those of the sa tier, unable to pose significant threats to enemies, and not nearly as formidable as those sa-tier flying swords.
However, Ancestor Jiang's intent in refining the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus was not for combat.
The Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus held the effect of supporting Golden Core cultivators in resisting the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, significantly reducing the tribulation's damage, minimizing harm.
This thod of refining the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus was learned from Shen Linglong.
Shen Linglong had always been attentive to Ancestor Jiang's cultivation status, predicting that she would attempt to form the Nascent Soul in the coming years.
So, when she gave the two Void Sky Immortal Swords to Ancestor Jiang, she also provided the thod to refine the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus.
After acquiring the thod to refine the Tribulation Crossing Divine Lotus, Ancestor Jiang, aware of its utility, initially intended to refine two such Lotuses, planning to gift one to Lu Ping.
