In the first month of his seclusion, Li Zhirui adjusted his own state, and only then did he begin to inhale and exhale Spiritual Energy.
As the cultivation technique circulated, the surrounding Spiritual Energy surged toward him, entering his body through his mouth and nose, and, refined by his ridians, transford into droplets of Mana, rging into the Sea of Magic within his Dantian.
The Sea of Magic, which had not expanded for a long ti, finally showed signs of activity, slow though it was, indicating that Li Zhirui’s path toward the Golden Core was unobstructed!
The Mana increased bit by bit, and after much refining by him, it began to thicken.
This process was extrely tedious and boring, because it involved nothing but repetition. Cultivators with weak minds could hardly persist for long.
Ti hurriedly passed, and before he knew it, more than half a year had slipped away.
After this period of cultivation and refinent, Li Zhirui’s Sea of Magic in the Dantian was now filled with extrely dense Mana, and the area had reached the limit of the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
Most notably, the yellow bud in the center of the Sea of Magic had beco dazzlingly luminous, having absorbed a massive amount of Mana.
This also gave Li Zhirui an illusion, as if he could condense a Golden Core anyti he wanted!
But he wisely halted his progress, for after half a year’s cultivation, both his ridians and Spiritual Soul needed proper rest. Only by adjusting them to perfect condition could he better face the upcoming real challenge!
Moreover, Core Formation required a great amount of Spiritual Energy. Although the owner of the rented cave had repeatedly assured him that there would be no shortage of Spiritual Energy, for the sake of caution, Li Zhirui still planned to make arrangents.
After all, should anything go awry, he had an alternative option to ensure nothing would go wrong during the breakthrough.
To maintain his current state of mind, Li Zhirui did not leave his ditation chamber. Approximately half a month later, he had adjusted his state.
Afterwards, he rose and slipped into space, plucked the Golden Ganoderma he had prepared earlier, and then imdiately vanished.
He actually had several mature Golden Ganoderma, but since they could only enhance Core Formation chances once, he only picked one.
Phew!
Li Zhirui let out a long sigh of foul breath and pulled out an exquisite Jade Box, along with a small jade bottle.
The Jade Box was for storing the Golden Ganoderma, and the small jade bottle contained several supre Spirit Pills!
These were the few supre Spirit Pills with Pill Patterns that he had, from the many he had alchemized over the years, including two Hundred Herbs Pills and three Consolidating Yuan Pills.
These five Spirit Pills were specifically reserved by Li Zhirui for consumption and assimilation when he attempted to break through to the Golden Core!
And whether it was the Golden Ganoderma or the supre Spirit Pills, they were treasures that many cultivators could not obtain.
He poured out two Hundred Herbs Pills and swallowed them in one gulp. With a thunderous roar, like a volcanic eruption, a huge surge of Spiritual Energy rose in his abdon, traveling through the ridians within his body.
However, when it finally settled into the Dantian, it didn’t stir up any waves; he was still at the peak of Foundation Establishnt.
But then, Li Zhirui picked up the Golden Ganoderma and swallowed it in two or three bites, followed by the remaining three top-grade Consolidating Yuan Pills.
An even greater surge of Spiritual Energy swept chaotically inside his body monts later, causing him severe pain. Yet, he was not shocked but delighted, realizing that this was not the right mont. He imdiately suppressed these unhelpful emotions and focused all his energy on running his cultivation technique.
As ti trickled by unknowingly, a small vortex suddenly ford in Li Zhirui’s Dantian, unleashing a whale’s might from within his body.
At the sa ti, the outside world reacted. The Spiritual Energy within tens of miles, as if guided by so force, rushed eagerly toward Li Zhirui.
A great deal of Spiritual Energy entered Li Zhirui’s body, continuously enlarging the vortex within the Golden Core, and drops of pure Mana fed into the yellow bud, promoting its growth.
The yellow sprout absorbed mana like a crazed sponge, and atop it, a tiny, frail yet solid golden sphere slowly took shape.
"Next, only after the washing of the Thunder Tribulation will my Golden Core truly form!"
Li Zhirui could feel the presence of the Thunder Tribulation. If he did not actively draw it to him, it would descend on its own in three days!
During these three days, Li Zhirui must strive to adjust his state to peak condition to prevent any accidents during the Tribulation Transcendence.
One Spirit Pill after another appeared before him, and with the help of nurous pills, Li Zhirui recovered to his peak state in just one day.
However, he did not rush to draw down the Tribulation Thunder but began to prepare for the ans to withstand the first two strikes.
Three days passed in a flash.

A massive, pitch-black cloud gathered above Li Zhirui’s head, and deafening roars of thunder sounded from within it as countless azure Thunder Serpents, like a surging tide, road the skies, giving off a sense of apocalypse that weighed heavily upon all.
Li Zhirui dashed out of his house and looked up at the Thunder Tribulation in the Tianqiong with a hint of uncontrollable excitent in his eyes.
This phenonon imdiately caught the attention of all nearby Cultivators, and at first sight of the tribulation clouds, they recognized what was happening.
"Core Formation Thunder Tribulation!"
"Who among the Dao friends is undergoing transcendence here?"
"Unbeknownst to us, another peer is about to be born."
People reacted differently, Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishnt Realm Cultivators mostly displayed envy, while Golden Core Cultivators were largely indifferent.
As soon as the tribulation clouds began to form, the Shopkeeper sensed it and muttered to himself, "Less than a year has passed, and it’s ti for transcendence. It looks like there was ample preparation and capable help; no wonder he refused to be recruited by the Sect."
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Following a thunderous roar that seed to shatter the skies, the first strike of Tribulation Thunder ferociously descended.
Li Zhirui’s face remained calm as his hands flipped and flew, casting spell after spell. In no ti, nurous vine tendrils sprouted from thin air, their leaves thick and lush, forming a wall under his command.
The Tribulation Thunder struck, instantly shattering countless leaves, and the wall eroded at a speed visible to the naked eye under the thunder’s relentless assault.
Yet at the sa ti, the power of the Tribulation Thunder began to weaken, eventually dissolving into scattered lightning flashes under Li Zhirui’s forceful attack.
Boom!
The second Tribulation Thunder did not allow Li Zhirui any ti to react before it violently struck down—a speed so swift and power so imnse—it was as if it had increased manifold from the first strike, seemingly punishing him for his ’audacious’ act of shattering the previous one.
It was an azure dragon, thick as several zhang, ferocious beyond asure, with thick malice lunging straight for Li Zhirui.
Li Zhirui’s expression shifted slightly; he had witnessed several Golden Core Tribulations but had never seen Tribulation Thunder more powerful than his!
But in that mont, there was no ti for further thought; all he could do was et the challenge with all his might.
Tendrils ford many Vine Dragons, like moths to a fla, charging at the azure Thunder Dragon.
