Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

Time flies, and thirty years have passed in a flash.

The peaks of Qixuan Sect are shrouded in clouds and mist, and time here seems to be slow and long.

During these thirty years, the outside world was in turmoil. Li Mu fulfilled his promise to Sword Master Feng and fought with several sword masters once every three years. However, they did not get the opportunity of sudden enlightenment like Chen Daojun.

Qing Yangzi refined the anti-death spiritual herb and regained his "physical body". His cultivation level regressed to the Spirit Transformation Realm. He settled down in the Qixuan Sect and served as the deputy sect leader.

On the day when the retreat ended, Li Mu slowly walked out of the sect master's mansion, dressed in green, with eyes as deep as stars. A faint power of chaos surrounded his body, and his every move showed his extraordinary and otherworldly demeanor.

And Xue'er, who was accompanying him, exuded a cold aura all over her body. Her white dress was covered with crystal clear snow, and she was surrounded by an extremely strong cold force, as if even the air around her was condensed into frost.

With the appearance of Xue'er, thick dark clouds began to gather in the sky. There were lightning and thunder in the clouds, and there was a faint breath of true spiritual thunder brewing.

The disciples of the Qixuan Sect noticed this unusual phenomenon and looked up at the thunderclouds in the sky, discussing it heatedly and looking as if they were used to it.

Over the years, thunder disasters have frequently befallen the Tribulation Platform in the back mountain of the Qixuan Sect. Almost all of them are caused by the sect master refining top-grade Taoist weapons, and they have gradually become accustomed to the various disasters brought about by the weapons.

However, this time the changes in the thunderclouds were somewhat beyond their expectations.

The thunderclouds rolled, but unlike the rhythm of the previous thunderclouds of weapon disasters, they possessed a special will. The thunderclouds that gathered from all directions danced wantonly in the sky above the Qixuan Sect. The dark clouds were so heavy that they seemed able to crush the mountains. The thunderclouds rolled like waves, covering the sky and the sun, displaying a shocking magnificence.

"Look! This thundercloud is more ferocious than any other before. It doesn't seem to be a weapon disaster!"

A young disciple pointed at the thunderclouds in the sky, his voice trembling with excitement and his eyes full of surprise. He was puzzled as to the origin of these terrifying thunderclouds.

"Yes! I have never seen such a vast and boundless thundercloud. The entire sect is shrouded by it. What kind of thunder tribulation is this? It is so terrifying." A young female disciple next to her was also full of amazement and asked her fellow disciple in shock.

"This is not an ordinary weapon tribulation, but a sixty-nine true spirit tribulation. If I'm not mistaken, it's Miss Xue'er who is going to go through the tribulation!" An elderly Nascent Soul disciple, with worry in his eyes, explained to his fellow disciples.

It turned out to be the sixty-nine true spiritual calamity!
Is Miss Xueer going to survive the tribulation?
Hearing this, all the disciples were stunned for a moment, then they understood the reason and couldn't help but worry about him.

The sect leader's partner is the nine-tailed celestial fox, Miss Xue'er. This is an almost open secret throughout the Qixuan Sect.

Miss Xue'er not only has a beautiful face, but her gentle and helpful personality has won the love of everyone in the Qixuan Sect. No matter whether it is the elders with profound cultivation or the disciples of the sect, they all have the highest respect and gratitude for Miss Xue'er.

At the same time, her relationship with the sect leader Li Mu has also become a legend within the sect.

Now, she has attracted the true spirit thunder tribulation, and it is the terrifying sixty-nine true spirit tribulation. All the disciples of the Qixuan Sect can't help but worry about her fate.

The Sixty-Nine True Spirit Tribulation is an extremely rare high-level thunder tribulation in the world of cultivation. Only those whose cultivation has reached a certain extreme or those demons with supernatural talents can attract it.

At this moment, the Qixuan Sect was filled with solemnity. All the disciples stopped what they were doing and gathered in various places of the sect, gazing at the thunderclouds that covered the sky. In their hearts, they were worried about Miss Xue'er, but also looked forward to her upcoming breakthrough.

Qixuan Sect, the Tribulation Platform in the back mountain.

Li Mu stood in the air, watching Xue'er slowly step onto the Tribulation Platform. His figure was as straight as a pine tree. He placed one hand behind his back, clenching his fist. His mood was not as calm as he looked.

Xue'er seemed to realize something, looked back and smiled, looking at Xue'er with a relaxed smile: "Brother Li, don't worry! I will get through this safely."

After saying this, Xue'er turned around and went straight onto the Tribulation Platform, heading towards the surging thunderclouds. Spiritual energy surged throughout her body, resonating with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

As Xue'er stepped onto the tribulation platform, the entire sky seemed to freeze, with thunderclouds rolling and lightning and thunder roaring.

"Crack!" A deafening thunder broke through the sky, as if the will of heaven and earth was announcing the official start of this thunder catastrophe. In the thunderclouds, countless tiny arcs of electricity intertwined and converged, gradually forming a thick purple lightning pillar, which fell straight towards Xue'er.

Xue'er suddenly raised her head, her face turned into a fox, her eyes were upright, and the power of the heavenly fox was condensed in her body. A thin layer of frost spread around her, which was the unique power of her bloodline - the Ice Fox Domain.

A powerful cold force gushed out from her hands, forming a sharp contrast with the terrifying purple lightning. With a loud 'bang', the purple lightning column pierced the cold shield fiercely, colliding violently, and bursting out with dazzling light and deafening roar.

The purple lightning column seemed to be temporarily frozen by the power of ice. It shattered under the powerful lightning energy and turned into countless tiny arcs that splashed everywhere, but most of them were swallowed up by the cold air in the ice fox domain and dissipated into nothingness. However, there were still many purple lightning snakes that broke through the cold domain and sank into Xue'er's body.

"Hmph!" Xue'er groaned, her brows slightly furrowed. Her body felt as if it was being pierced by thousands of needles and the pain was unbearable. However, thinking of the details of the tribulation that Li Mu had told her, although these lightning snakes were painful, they were also a precious opportunity to temper the body and increase the chance of surviving the true spirit thunder tribulation.

Xue'er practiced with all her strength, guiding these violent lightning snakes to move along specific meridians, making her body experience an unprecedented baptism of thunder.

However, the horror of the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation has just begun to emerge.

The thunderclouds seemed to be angered by the actions of the fox demon, and they rolled violently. The thunder was deafening, and several purple lightning bolts intertwined wildly in the clouds, condensing into an even larger thunderstorm, like an arrow of heavenly punishment, bombarding towards Xue'er with the momentum to destroy all living things.

Xue'er let out a low shout, and the spiritual energy in her body boiled. The Ice Fox Domain expanded again, condensing more cold air around her body to form a more solid ice shield.

"Boom!" A huge thunderstorm hit the ice shield around Xue'er. This time the collision was more violent than before. The ice shield trembled violently under the impact of the thunderstorm. The frost on the surface melted quickly and condensed quickly, as if it was fighting a life-and-death battle with the thunderstorm. Xue'er gritted her teeth, enduring the double pain inside and outside her body. With a wave of her jade hand, a talisman appeared out of thin air. Powerful spiritual power fluctuations flowed on it, emitting brilliant spiritual light, which quickly resonated with the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth, forming a brilliant light shield.

This talisman was a protective item that Li Mu prepared for Xue'er before she went through the tribulation - a sixth-order thunder-protecting talisman.

With a loud "bang", the purple thunder struck down, but the moment it touched the light shield, it encountered an invisible barrier and was dissolved one by one by the brilliant spiritual light on it. The lightning scattered and turned into starlight and dissipated into the void.

Xue'er took advantage of this brief opportunity to take a deep breath, and the spiritual power in her body surged, interweaving and colliding with the power of heavenly thunder in her body, quickly recovering.

Seeing this, Li Mu frowned, feeling a little uneasy inside. The true spirit thunder tribulation had just begun, and Xue'er was forced to use the thunder-control talisman.

"The situation is not good! This True Spirit Thunder Tribulation is extremely fierce, and it carries evil within it, which is unusual!"

At some point, Qingyangzi had quietly appeared beside Li Mu, staring at Xue'er on the tribulation stage, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, and gestured.

"What is the difference between this thunder tribulation and the sixty-nine true spirit thunder tribulation? Senior, have you recognized the origin of this thunder tribulation?" Li Mu frowned, looked up at the thunderclouds gathering in the sky, and asked with concern.

Qing Yangzi pondered for a moment, looked deeply at the rolling thunderclouds, and said: "This thunder tribulation is indeed not comparable to the ordinary sixty-nine true spirit thunder tribulation. I suspect it is a different kind of thunder tribulation!"

“The sixty-nine true spirit thunder tribulations are the tests sent down by Heaven when the transformed demon king breaks through the true spirit realm. They are divided into six small tribulations, nine big tribulations, and fifteen levels in total. Each level is a thorough baptism of the body, mind, and demon body. However, the thunder tribulation that Xue’er is experiencing at this moment seems to have been integrated with other principles of the Dao, causing this thunder tribulation to transcend the conventional scope and become an extremely rare and alien thunder tribulation.” Qing Yangzi’s words were somewhat solemn.

"As the name suggests, a different kind of thunder tribulation is one that contains special properties and powers that are different from ordinary thunder and lightning. They are often closely related to certain special laws between heaven and earth, or the bloodlines of powerful creatures. Its appearance indicates that the one who encounters it is extraordinary." After a pause, Qingyangzi continued to explain: "There are many kinds of different kinds of thunder tribulations, and it is difficult to count them all, but generally speaking, they can be divided into three categories: force evolution tribulation, law mutation tribulation, and bloodline awakening tribulation. Xue'er is a mixed bloodline of a nine-tailed celestial fox and a snow fox. If I am not mistaken, she should be facing a bloodline awakening tribulation right now."

"The blood awakening tribulation is one of the most dangerous and mysterious alien thunder tribulations." Qing Yangzi's voice became unusually serious, reminding Li Mu: "It not only tests the body and soul of the person undergoing the tribulation, but also thoroughly cleanses and reshapes the roots of their bloodline. In this process, the person undergoing the tribulation will feel the call and impact of all the power in her ancestral bloodline. Every lightning may stimulate the ancient power hidden in her bloodline, or it may make her fall into madness and destruction. "

As Qing Yangzi's words fell, the thunderclouds in the sky seemed to respond to his judgment, becoming more violent and restless. In the thunderstorm, purple arcs of electricity began to flash with strange red light.

The next moment, a scarlet red lightning struck towards Xue'er.

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound.

The light shield formed by the Thunder-Protecting Talisman in front of Xue'er began to tremble violently the moment it came into contact with the scarlet thunder. The bright light on the surface quickly dimmed, as if it was under unspeakable pressure, and cracks spread rapidly like a spider web.

With a "puff" sound, the spirit-controlling talisman shattered, and the scarlet thunder hit Xue'er's delicate body hard.

"what!"

Xue'er screamed, her body stiffened, and the red thunder penetrated into her body. The demonic energy in her body was instantly ignited like a boiling oil pan. The terrible thunder power and the violent demonic energy intertwined together, as if to tear her body and soul apart.

Xue'er was directly hit by the lightning and turned into her original form. She was a huge six-tailed fox with snow-white hair. She curled up on the tribulation platform, her body tightly wrapped in scarlet lightning, looking extremely miserable.

The next thunder was building up even more violently, and the entire sky seemed to be shrouded in an extremely oppressive atmosphere. The roar of thunder was like the collapse of the sky and the earth. More red light was mixed in the purple thunderclouds, indicating that a more violent lightning strike was about to come.

At this fatal moment, as if sensing that its master had suffered a serious injury, the necklace around Xue'er's neck suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and the 'Ice Crystal Lotus' appeared to protect its master, releasing endless icy power, which instantly merged with the ice fox field around Xue'er's body, forming an indestructible ice barrier.

This barrier not only resisted the terrifying thunder that was about to fall, but also wrapped Xue'er tightly inside it, as if building a temporary ice palace for her, isolating her from all harm.

Seeing the appearance of this Taoist weapon to protect its master, Qing Yangzi's pupils shrank and he couldn't help but look at Li Mu, knowing that this was his masterpiece.

Qing Yangzi smiled bitterly and said, "Sect Master, you really have good intentions for Miss Xue'er. It seems that you have already foreseen the danger of this thunder tribulation and prepared this life-saving item for her in advance."

Hearing this, Li Mu looked at Xue'er on the tribulation platform with a complicated expression, his eyes full of worry, and said in a deep voice: "How can I not make more plans for her? However, this strange thunder tribulation is beyond my expectations. Even the 'Ice Crystal Lotus' can only temporarily buy her a glimmer of hope."

"Master, over-reliance on artifacts is not conducive to her tribulation. This tribulation thunder has the ability to temper her blood and stimulate the blood power in her body." Qingyangzi frowned and gestured.

Qing Yangzi's reminder made Li Mu struggle, hesitant and anxious. He knew very well that one should not rely too much on tools to overcome the tribulation, but he could not just watch Xue'er die in the thunder tribulation.

Qing Yangzi sighed, turned his head to look at Xue'er in the ice barrier, and reminded her: "Miss Xue'er, you need to face this calamity head-on to survive. Over-reliance on tools will lead to endless troubles. Your blood contains endless potential, and only through the baptism of thunder can it be awakened and survive this calamity!"

When Xue'er, who was inside the ice barrier, heard Qing Yangzi's call, her heart was shocked. The strong will that was temporarily concealed by pain and despair was instantly ignited. She immediately realized that if she wanted to truly break through herself and achieve extraordinary success, she could not just escape, and she could not rely too much on Li Mu.

Xue'er suddenly opened her eyes, with an unprecedented determination flashing in her eyes. She forcefully mobilized the chaotic demon energy in her body to suppress the power of thunder that was raging in her body.

"what--!"

Xue'er let out a deafening roar towards the sky and leaped out of the ice barrier with her six tails spread out. Her hair flashed silver and scarlet light under the interweaving of lightning and cold air, like six sharp ice blades, interweaving with endless thunder power.

In an instant, Xue'er was wrapped in countless thunderbolts, which penetrated her snow-white fur, leaving shocking blackened marks, her skin torn apart, blood and thunderbolts intertwined, forming a tragic yet magnificent picture. (End of this chapter)
