Chapter 570: Chapter 576: Tempering Chapter 570: Chapter 576: Tempering And so, after many years of accumulation, Xiaoqing finally faced the Core Formation Thunder Tribulation!
“Ao!”
Confronted with the astonishingly powerful Tribulation Thunder, Xiaoqing didn’t shrink back. With a long howl to the sky, it charged directly into it.
Li Zhirui appeared very calm on the surface, but he was quite nervous inside. Although he knew that many Devil Beasts with extraordinary bloodlines were accustod to withstanding the tribulation with their bodies to temper themselves, actually witnessing it still made him uneasy, even though he knew Xiaoqing’s physical strength, honed by trendous mana, was no less than that of a Golden Core Cultivator, and perhaps even a bit stronger.
The Tribulation Thunder roared down, enveloping Xiaoqing’s body completely. Without using any spells, it resisted with its body, dissipating the thunder’s energy.
“Uncle Shiling, isn’t this too dangerous?” Li Chenghuo watched, terrified and dazed, as he asked.
Li Zhirui shook his head and smiled, “Don’t worry, Xiaoqing has a strong body. It’s just so Tribulation Thunder; it can’t do anything to him.”
“Incredible! If one day, I break through to the Nascent Soul stage, I will definitely bathe my body in thunder like this!” Li Chengwu, who was standing by, revealed a touch of longing and anticipation in his eyes.
“You big oaf!” Li Chenghuo slapped him on the back of the head, saying irritably, “With your half-baked body cultivation, you want to bathe in thunder? If you want to die, don’t pick such a stupid way to do it!”
Unless one had extraordinary talent, it was very difficult for Cultivators’s bodies to surpass those of Spirit Beasts at the sa level of cultivation. Even body cultivators were rely chasing after them.
Indeed, Li Chengwu was enthusiastic about training his body and claid to be a body cultivator, but his main practice was still the Wanling Sutra. He rely utilized so body cultivation thods to temper his body.
Li Zhirui shook his head and turned his attention back to Xiaoqing, who was undergoing the tribulation.
The first wave of Tribulation Thunder had almost been completely absorbed by it!
Seeing Xiaoqing’s spirited appearance, Li Zhirui felt much relieved.
Rumble—
It seed that Xiaoqing’s actions had angered the Thunder Tribulation. Without giving any respite, the second wave of Tribulation Thunder smashed down fiercely, evidently much stronger than the first.
Yet, Xiaoqing remained undaunted, standing proud as if a sovereign looking down upon everything in the world, it once again charged into the midst of the Tribulation Thunder.
Cra-cra-crackle—
A series of explosion sounds followed one after another, trying to blast open Xiaoqing’s dragon scales, but all ended up serving as nutrients to reinforce it.
And its howls, starting from initial pain, turned into sounds of pleasure and joy towards the end.
The third wave, the Heart Demon Tribulation, was no trouble at all for simple-minded Xiaoqing, which had little exposure to complex affairs. It easily broke free from the Illusionary Realm.
Normally, the Core Formation Thunder Tribulation would have ended there, but Xiaoqing, not satisfied, even stimulated the Transformation Tribulation.
This wave of Tribulation Thunder looked to be moderate in strength, yet for a Devil Beast, it was an ordeal for both the body and soul!
The Tribulation Thunder coursed through every inch of flesh, forcibly changing their structures, and the more robust the body, the more intense the pain. Only by enduring it could one be transford into an Acquired Tao Body.
Once the Thunder Tribulation dissipated, Xiaoqing, previously brimming with vigor, now appeared listless, yet also more mature. Its light cyan dragon scales had turned erald green and its horns began to branch out, seemingly taking a small step toward the True Dragon bloodline.
Under the envelopnt of the Fortune Radiance and Tribulation Spirit Qi, Xiaoqing’s Golden Core inside its body rapidly solidified, and it appeared larger than that of ordinary Spirit Beasts.
At the sa ti, its body was shrinking continuously, transforming into a human form.
When the Spirit Light dispersed, Xiaoqing’s appearance was revealed in front of everyone, with handso brows and bright eyes, a prominent nose like a peak. Though sowhat youthful, there was an imperial aura in every movent.
However, as a Spirit Beast, Cang preferred to be seen in his dragon form, so with a shake of his body, he transford back into his true Flood Dragon form.
But the pair of dragon horns on his head had fallen off, leaving only two small bumps.
After a Spirit Beast passes through the Golden Core Tribulation, it will shed sothing from its body—like Da Qing’s tortoise shell, or Xiaoqing’s tail feathers—it’s the best material for refining their Life-bound Magic Treasures.
“Go back and consolidate your realm,” soone said.
Cang nodded and entered the quiet room Li Zhirui used for cultivation.
And after erging from his retreat, like Da Qing and Xiaoqing before him, he would leave and establish his own cave dwelling in the Spirit Beast Mountain, living alone.
Doing so allowed the Spirit Beasts to have their own independent space, and it was also convenient for them to reproduce and expand the clan’s Spirit Beast population, thus enhancing their ranks.
——
At the entrance of a Golden Core power.
“The Li family’s developnt speed is getting faster and faster, another Golden Core has been born!” The words were tinged with reluctance to be outdone.
As the Li family’s strength grew, they no longer needed to hide their Tribulation Transcendence events; on the contrary, showcasing their power had beco the most crucial thing.
“What of it? Whether the Li family’s strength is formidable or not, what does it have to do with us? Be a loyal vassal honestly, slowly build up your own strength, and don’t think about all that nonsense,” another Elder said.
“You’re right,” another said with a sigh of complex emotions, as the group dispersed.
——
“What happened up ahead? Why are all the Cultivators rushing there?” Li Zhixuan, who just returned from the wilderness, saw streaks of Spirit Light flying past her and couldn’t help but grow curious.
But considering that her condition wasn’t very good, she didn’t act imdiately.
Having left Wanxian Island for many years, Li Zhixuan had been training in the chaotic Fragnted Star State where she had killed not only Devil Beasts and Demon Cultivators but also a large number of Cultivators—even more than the forr two combined.
However, in the Fragnted Star State, that was quite normal.
Because of the environnt, the Cultivators there had beco very aggressive, so to speak, lacking in moral cultivation.
“They say there’s a Secret Realm erging; I wonder if we’ll have a chance to enter it,” just then, two Foundation Establishnt Cultivators flew past Li Zhixuan, their words catching her ear.
“A Secret Realm?!” Li Zhixuan’s eyes lit up.
Why, despite the dangers, did so many Cultivators not want to leave the Fragnted Star State? Aside from the rich Spiritual Energy and abundant resources, the most crucial reason was that every teor shower might pry open the barriers and bring forth a Secret Realm!
Compared to other regions, the Secret Realms of the Fragnted Star State have a much higher ergence rate.
Li Zhixuan, having been in the Fragnted Star State for many years, had also heard about the ergence of Secret Realms several tis, but regrettably, either they were too far away or there were rank restrictions.
Until now, she hadn’t had the opportunity to enter one!
This ti, she had encountered the ergence of a Secret Realm so close by!
“I wonder what rank this Secret Realm is. If it’s lower than a third-ranked realm, it will just be another disappointnt,” she mused. Nonetheless, Li Zhixuan imdiately flew towards it.
