Volume 12 is missing Chapter 57 Sixty-nine Heavenly Tribulations
In the history of the human race, the Nine Tribulations Realm is a realm that no cultivator has ever reached.
First, it is too difficult, and second, it is unnecessary.
Just like a score of 700 can get you into Tsinghua University or Peking University and then learn more profound knowledge, no one would choose to repeat a grade with a score of 700 just for the unattainable 750 points.
Looking at the system of cultivators, only sword cultivators who need to pave their own way can go the furthest in the realm of transcending tribulations, and are also the ones most likely to reach the realm of nine tribulations.
But you have to know that even someone as talented as Li Qiubai only stopped at the Eight Tribulations Realm and reached the Sword Immortal Realm.
It is such a "priceless" Nine Tribulations Realm, but the meaning conveyed by Chu Mushen's words is that Lu Qingshan will definitely be able to reach it and achieve this unprecedented achievement.
The source of Chu Mushen’s confidence is simple—how can he fight against the heavens if he doesn’t practice to the ninth calamity realm?
Lu Qingshan did not pretend to be modest and just agreed immediately.
The two had the same confidence in this matter.
…
Zang Xiu looked down at the vast land below.
This was originally a vast snowfield with a vast territory but sparse population, giving it a desolate appearance.
However, in this extremely cold snowfield, there is such a beautiful place, with continuous mountains, towering ancient trees, and abundant spiritual energy, just like a paradise.
This contrast makes this place even more magnificent and elegant.
There is a silver waterfall on the main peak in the center of the mountain range. Although it is in an extremely cold place, it does not freeze. It falls directly into the cold pool below. The cold air fills the air, making the place misty.
Cold water is one of the most indispensable raw materials for weapon refiners.
Turning his gaze again, he could see an even more magnificent mountain range on the adjacent side of this mountain range, like a sleeping dragon on the snowy plain, but it was shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, so it was difficult to see clearly.
"That's the Sword Sect's Inverted Mountain Range." Lu Qingshan and his companion, who was also blinking their eyes and looking at the Inverted Mountain Range with curiosity, introduced it to Zang Xiaojian.
"Master Zang, this mountain range will belong to you from now on." Then, Lu Qingshan pointed to the mountains below and said to Zang Xiu.
This mountain range is the Feilai Peak System, which is adjacent to the Sword Sect’s Inverted Mountain Range. It has always been regarded as the Sword Sect’s private land. It is undeveloped and is a treasure land.
Zang Xiu took a deep breath and nodded slightly.
Compared with Lingye Island, the spiritual energy in the Feilai Peak system, which seems to be extremely abundant to others, is actually a little thin, and the products are not rich enough.
But he was not disappointed at all and was in a calm state of mind.
Because Lu Qingshan gave him a piece of cloud-patterned mother stone.
With the cloud-patterned mother stone and skilled swordsmiths, they will be able to develop Feilai Peak sooner or later and even make it more prosperous than Lingye Island.
Zang Xiu, who had been a Buddhist for who knows how many years, inexplicably developed a feeling of starting from scratch, with a sense of drive and struggle in his heart.
He wanted to make Zangjia rise in the sky, become the first sword-making place of the human race, and make all the sword practitioners of the human race yearn for it.
Behind Zang Xiu were tens of thousands of monks from Lingye Island, as well as numerous monsters that they had once raised on Lingye Island.
During this migration, the monks of Lingye Island took away everything they could, leaving only an empty Lingye Island for the demons.
"This is the new place for our Lingye Island lineage to settle down," Zang Xiu said loudly, "Let's all work together to transform this place and make a pasture and a medicine garden. I'll go and select the location of the cloud pattern vein."
Leaving their homes, the monks of Lingye Island were more or less sad, so after Zang Xiu obtained the cloud-patterned mother stone, he informed the swordsmith families on the island of the news in order to encourage people.
Under Zang Xiu's instructions, rays of spiritual light flew out and entered the Feilai Peak system and became busy.
Mingyu followed with a smile on his lips and directed the monks to make arrangements.
But this was the Tibetans' business. Lu Qingshan was very tactful and did not intend to get involved. He prepared to say goodbye and leave and return to Yumen Pass.
The trip to Tianhe City, which was expected to last at least a month or half a month, was extended to half a year because of these unexpected events.
His identity and status are different now. As the leader of the Sword Sect and the ruler of Yumen Pass, it is not appropriate for him to leave Yumen Pass for too long - just like if an emperor in the secular world leaves the palace for a long time, it will inevitably have a bad impact.
Fortunately, it was the three masters who challenged him to a fight, and then he was defeated successively by Yu Canghai, Xue Wushao and Xia Daoyun, and was seriously injured. He needed time to recover and would not provoke a war in a short period of time. Otherwise, Lu Qingshan would never dare to be so "indulgent".
"Master Lu, once matters here are settled, I will personally lead people to Yumen Pass." Zang Xiu and Lu Qingshan solemnly promised.
Guarding Yumen Pass is the common responsibility of all cultivators, sects and families in the Eastern Region.
Since these collectors have chosen to settle in Feilai Peak, they naturally have to assume corresponding responsibilities.
Zang Xiaojian's eyes rolled around, and it was obvious that he had some ideas.
As expected.
"Dad, our Tibetan family has received so much care from the Sword Sect since we came to the Eastern Region. It is reasonable for us to go to Yumen Pass as soon as possible instead of developing here in vain."
Zang Xiaojian said with a grin, "I also know that a tall building is built from the ground up. If it is not properly arranged when it is first built, it may cost a hundred times more to make up for it in the future. Dad must be in charge of the overall situation before he can feel at ease.
However, I can't help much if I stay here anyway, why don't I "join the army for my father" and go to Yumen Pass on my father's behalf? "
Zang Xiu looked at the smiling Zang Xiaojian silently without saying a word until the latter began to feel guilty and stammered, "Then I'd better stay here..."
"Go if you want to. The war hasn't started yet, so you should adapt to the environment first to avoid being caught off guard." Zang Xiu turned around and stopped looking at Zang Xiaojian.
Zang Xiaojian was stunned at first, then he couldn't help but waved his fist, "Great!"
Seeing Zang Xiaojian's joyful expression, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but smile, "Then come back to Yumen Pass with me."
…
Before returning to Yumen Pass, Lu Qingshan had one more thing to do.
After taking Zang Xiaojian away from Feilai Peak for a distance, Lu Qingshan looked around.
Below was an endless vast snowfield with few living creatures and no human habitation.
"Wait here for a while." he said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Zang Xiaojian asked.
"I'm going to survive a disaster. You stay here and don't move. Wait for me to come back."
After Lu Qingshan finished speaking, his figure turned into a beam of light and flew towards a snowy peak in the distance.
At the same time, the aura in his body emanated, powerful and surging.
The next moment, a thunder sounded in the sky.
A flash of lightning tore through the sky and reflected into Zang Xiaojian's eyes.
Dark clouds rolled in, with lightning brewing.
This sign is clearly a sign of the coming of a heavenly calamity.
"The Six Tribulations Realm advancement mission has been completed."
"Your experience points have been consumed by 3.08 billion. You will face a calamity. This calamity is the 69th Heavenly Tribulation. Please be prepared !"
In Lu Qingshan's eyes, two lines of small fiery characters flickered on the dark blue panel.
Because of the migration of the three tribes, the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations had been delayed for some time. If he didn't cross it now, when would he cross it?
Above the sky, thunder was aroused, and the spiritual power seemed to be affected by it, becoming extremely violent.
The calamity clouds rolled in in pieces, showing signs of condensing into a storm, with streaks of lightning flashing through them.
Under the storm, Lu Qingshan stood quietly.
Although Lu Qingshan was confident, his expression was also extremely solemn at the moment and he did not dare to take it lightly.
The power of the heavenly tribulation is constantly increasing, and the higher the number of tribulations, the more terrifying it is.
Its existence is to limit the number of cultivators in the high-tribulation realm. So although the cultivators' cultivation is also improving, it is actually no match for the increase in the power of the heavenly tribulation .
The difficulty for a cultivator in the fifth tribulation realm to pass through the sixty-nine tribulations is ten times higher than that for a cultivator in the second tribulation realm to pass through the thirty-nine tribulations.
The energy in Lu Qingshan's body boiled, and a purple-gold light spread out.
The sword domain has already begun.
Lu Qingshan not only has to survive these sixty-nine heavenly tribulations, but he also has to estimate the power of the ninety-nine heavenly tribulations in the future through their intensity, so as to be prepared.
boom!
Disaster clouds were sweeping across the sky, and suddenly a flash of lightning shot out and rushed towards Lu Qingshan below.
Like a harbinger.
The next moment, violent thunder roared down, like electric snakes and thunder dragons across the sky, with violent waves and power, slamming towards Lu Qingshan.
Bang bang bang!
Low explosion sounds continued to be heard from the periphery of Lu Qingshan's sword domain.
The sword domain displayed an excellent defensive capability. The sword energy spread out and actually eliminated the thunder outside the sword domain.
Lu Qingshan was not too proud of the dissipation of the first wave of thunder.
The really tricky things should be the last few waves of thunder. The biggest effect of the previous thunder was just to consume his strength.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Fiery red, emerald green, dark blue, dark black, and deep purple.
Six natal swords, five sword whistles, and five sword lights circled around Lu Qingshan as if facing a formidable enemy, ready to deal with the thunder at any time.
His wait didn't last too long.
Thunders that are stronger and more dense than the previous wave suddenly burst out from the calamity clouds.
Lu Qingshan concentrated his mind and immediately activated the six natal swords to sweep out and actively face the thunder.
As if it had sensed Lu Qingshan's action, the raging thunder did not hold back. The terrifying pressure quickly spread out and entangled with each other, suddenly forming a thicker bolt of lightning that fell down.
"Just use these few moves back and forth."
Seeing this scene, Lu Qingshan was not surprised at all and continued to urge his natal sword forward.
The only way to deal with things like heavenly tribulations is to rely on the strength of one's cultivation to offset them.
You definitely can't hide.
Of course, for physical cultivators, they can rely on the strength of their physical body to confront the natural tribulation.
However, this is not something Lu Qingshan should consider.
A sword cultivator is not a rude warrior.
The powerful thunder that gathered together collided with Lu Qingshan's natal sword.
No matter how it released its pressure or burst out its power, it could never overwhelm Lu Qingshan's natal sword. Instead, it gradually faded in this confrontation until it completely dissipated.
But just when this wave of thunder dissipated, Lu Qingshan discovered something incredible.
"Did you discover it too?" The thought from Lieque sounded synchronously in his heart.
"In the confrontation with thunder tribulation, Lieque can absorb the power of heavenly tribulation to store energy for heavenly punishment..." Lu Qingshan said absentmindedly.
Yes, in the confrontation just now, he, as the master of Lieque Sword, was surprised to find that Lieque could actually absorb part of the power of the heavenly tribulation and use it for his own benefit.
And the power of heavenly calamity is the source of power of heavenly punishment.
Although there is still only one heavenly punishment stored in Lieque at present, the energy storage progress of the second heavenly punishment has apparently been completed by more than half.
This is the second wave of thunder!
The sixty-nine heavenly tribulations are obviously not that simple.
Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan's heart couldn't help but become active.
There is no doubt that Heavenly Punishment is his most powerful trump card at the moment.
There is no consumption at all, and the power is comparable to a blow from a peak Venerable Realm cultivator. The combination of these two makes the magical power of [Heavenly Punishment] incredibly useful.
The "cooling-off period" of only one year for a divine punishment seems a bit unsatisfactory - in fact, for ordinary cultivators this is not a disadvantage at all.
It’s just that Lu Qingshan’s cultivation progress is too fast.
But the limitations were there, and he had to accept them even if he was not satisfied, until now he had received an unexpected surprise.
It turns out that Tianfa does have a "fast charging" method.
Lu Qingshan couldn't help but look up at the dense and surging calamity clouds in the sky.
The heavenly calamity was originally a terrible disaster, but now it seemed somewhat familiar to him.
This is not a thunderbolt, it is clearly a "self-service power bank".
"If you're like this, I won't think it's too much..." Lu Qingshan muttered to himself as he stared at the calamity clouds that were brewing the third wave of thunder.
In the sky, the silver snake flashed again.
Dark clouds rolled, and bolts of lightning, several feet thick, tore through the sky, striking Lu Qingshan fiercely again without giving up.
call out!
At the moment when the thunder tribulation was approaching, Lieque rushed out alone with the same amazing power, and "bite" the violent electric snake.
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
With each collision, a deep purple glow flashed on the sword of Lieque, shining brightly and looking quite gorgeous.
Boom!
The calamity clouds squirmed more and more violently, and the heavenly calamity poured down like a rainstorm.
Lu Qingshan was in the sword domain, looking up at the sky where lightning snakes were dancing wildly. He kept mobilizing his Yuan power and controlled the sword Lieque to block almost all of the thunder tribulations, while absorbing the power from them.
The thunder that was gushing out from the sky, after bombarding for nearly a quarter of an hour, finally began to weaken and dissipate.
After the last calamity thunder was defeated by Lieque, the calamity cloud that filled a large area of the sky finally slowly dissipated.
"Close to fifty percent..." Lu Qingshan said softly.
In order to survive the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations, he consumed almost half of his own energy in just a quarter of an hour.
It is conceivable how difficult the seven-nine heavenly tribulations, the eight-nine heavenly tribulations, and even the legendary nine-nine heavenly tribulations will be.
The number of heavenly punishments stored by Lieque has also increased from one to four.
The gains don’t end there.
call!
Lu Qingshan let out a deep breath.
An unprecedented powerful feeling spread from his limbs and bones, and his Yuan Energy surged through his meridians like a tide, vigorous and powerful.
Overcoming tribulations is something that every practitioner dreams of, while revering them, because every time one overcomes a tribulation, it is a transformation, a transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly, and not only will one's strength increase, but other aspects will also change.
Six Tribulations Realm!
A satisfied smile appeared on Lu Qingshan's face.
After nearly half a year of hard training, his cultivation level had risen from the fourth calamity realm to the sixth calamity realm, a tremendous change having taken place.
"You have survived the sixty-nine days of tribulation!"
"Your cultivation has been improved: from the fifth calamity realm to the sixth calamity realm!"
"Your energy has been increased, and the upper limit of energy has increased by 40w!"
"Your soul has been upgraded, and the upper limit of your spiritual awareness has increased by 1000!"
"Issuing Seven Tribulations Realm advancement tasks..."
