Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

The battle around the thunder tribulation suddenly became fierce.

However, Li Mu had no time to care about anything else and focused all his attention on helping Qi Jue Dao Dan overcome the tribulation.

The third wave of thunder was about to come. Nine purple sky thunders were hidden in the thunderclouds, like nine dragons of destruction, carrying the breath of annihilation of everything.

A trace of solemnity flashed in Li Mu's eyes, and he suddenly urged the chaos essence in his body to help Qi Jue Dao Dan and shouted: "Create Dao Patterns, reshape the world!"

The elixir patterns on the surface of the Qi Jue Dao Dan changed drastically, and the Wuji Dao patterns suddenly lit up and turned into a colorful light curtain.

"Crack!"

The first purple thunder tore through the air like an angry dragon and slammed heavily into the colorful light curtain. Suddenly, the lightning and the Taoist patterns intertwined, and a deafening roar broke out. The whole world seemed to be shaking at this moment.

Immediately afterwards, the second, third..., and ninth purple thunderbolts struck down one after another, like a punishment from heaven, with astonishing power.

"Good! Qi Jue Dao Dan successfully passed the third level of thunder tribulation!"

Li Mu was overjoyed, and his mind relaxed a little. He paid some attention to several battlefields outside the thunder to confirm the battle situation of Xue'er and the others.

On a battlefield hundreds of miles away in the northwest, Xue'er was seen fighting against a blue-clothed swordsman in the fusion realm.

Xue'er stepped on the void with her jade feet, and spider-web-like ice cracks appeared. That was the unique frozen realm of her innate Taoist weapon - the Nine Yin Cold Realm, which devoured the life of outsiders.

The swordsman in green carried seven jade sword cases on his back. The Big Dipper was engraved on the surface of the cases. The starlight collided with the glow of the cold moon, splashing out dazzling sparks.

"Cang Ming Sword Domain, open!" The blue-clothed swordsman wiped his finger across his eyelids, and his pupils turned into silver-white sword beams. Hundreds of sword energies whizzed out from his robe sleeves and condensed into eighteen roaring frost sword dragons in mid-air, shattering the suspended icebergs formed by the Nine Yin Cold Domain within ten miles.

Xue'er tapped the ice steps barefoot, and her nine fox tails suddenly stretched out, each tail tip condensed into a mysterious ice pattern, connecting in the void to form a nine-layer circular array. The Nine Yin Cold Pearl on her brow burst into a dark blue halo, and the fragments of the calamity cloud torn apart by the sword dragon instantly stagnated, turning into millions of sharp six-sided ice crystals.

"Frost World, Thousand Tribulations!"

Xue'er shouted, and the ice crystal clusters suddenly refracted thousands of distorted rays of light. The frost sword dragon that the blue-clothed swordsman slashed out was actually attacked by his own sword energy, and the dragon's head collapsed layer by layer in the dazzling halo.

The blue-clothed swordsman retreated three hundred feet, and the sword case behind him clanged open the third grid. An ancient sword completely black rose into the sky with the power of annihilation of stars. The dark golden inscription flowing on the sword was the "Star Shattering Art" that had been lost in the ancient sword tomb.

"Break!" Wherever the ancient sword pointed, the space peeled off like a fragile glass curtain, exposing the boiling chaotic void behind it.

Xue'er's fox ears trembled slightly, and her nine tails suddenly overlapped to form a lotus shape. The core of the Nine Yin Cold Pearl showed the shadow of the Arctic Abyss, and the Nine Netherworld Qi sealed in the pearl turned into a solid entity - it was a "Xuanming Ice Dragon" a thousand feet long!
The ice dragon's scales stood upside down, and it opened its mouth to spit out "Eternal Frozen Breath" that spanned the sky and the earth. Wherever it passed, even the broken fragments of space condensed into suspended ice sculptures.

The moment the sword light and the breath collided, the flow of time in the entire Nine Yin Cold Realm suddenly dropped tenfold.

The sparks flying from the edge of the Star-Breaking Sword slowly spiraled downwards, and each spark blossomed into a miniature sword formation in the air; while the dark energy frozen in the Ice Dragon's breath condensed into countless ice generals holding spears, advancing layer by layer with the momentum of a battle formation.

“Sword Twenty-Three: Meteoric Realm!” The blue-clothed swordsman bit his tongue and used his blood to write a burning sword symbol in the air.

The seven jade sword cases exploded at the same time, and tens of thousands of sword spirit fragments reassembled in the air, condensing into a "Taixu Jie Sword" that spanned the sky. The illusion of the birth and death of three thousand small worlds emerged on the sword spine. Wherever the tip of the sword pointed, the eternal frozen soil of the Jiuyin Cold Realm began to collapse and evaporate.

Ancient bloodline patterns emerged from the roots of the nine-tailed beast behind Xue'er. She formed seals with her hands, and suddenly nine hundred icicles wrapped in frost and fire rose from under her feet and broke through the air in an instant.

“Boom boom…!”

Three thousand calamity swords and nine hundred ice pillars collided violently, and the entire space fell into absolute silence. After three breaths, an indescribable shock wave exploded in a circular shape, and the icebergs suspended within a thousand miles turned into powder, and cracks appeared on the nine cold moons at the same time.

……

The two sides fought back and forth, and the fight was very intense.

On the southern battlefield, the blue-eyed golden ape transformed into an ape form and fought fiercely with a snake demon.

The Bi Bo Demon Queen walked barefoot on the waves, and every ripple under her feet bloomed a thousand bone-eroding water lotuses. The moment she waved her sleeves, a dense array of black ice blades emerged from the inverted river water - they were the remains of ancient monks who had been immersed in the river bottom for thousands of years!
"Roar!!"

The blue-eyed golden ape beat his chest to shatter the hundred-mile rain curtain, and his golden hair burst into fiery patterns like lava. The innate Taoist weapon in his hand, the Golden Ganglong Snake Stick, swept across, and the shadow of the stick split into nine roaring dragons. The Gengjin energy tore through the clouds, and wherever the snake head poisonous fog passed, even the upside-down river water was corroded into a smelly bloody rain.

The fingertips of the Bi Bo Yao Ji brushed across the Cang Ming Pearl, and the roar of a deep-sea monster was heard from the pearl. The phantom of the Black Tortoise rising from the huge waves actually condensed into a solid entity, with star-like marks all over its tortoise shell, and the snake head opened its mouth to spit out black water of annihilation.

The Gengjin energy hit the black water and condensed into countless metal thorns in the void, which went towards the golden ape's body!

"A mere trifle!" The blue-eyed golden ape grinned fiercely, and the magic characters on the ninth section of the dragon-snake stick suddenly lit up in blood, tearing the shadow of the black tortoise into pieces.

The hair of the Bi Bo Yao Ji spread out, and her black hair instantly turned dark blue. A crack appeared in the core of the Cang Ming Pearl, and the "Nine Nether Weak Water" that flooded the heaven and earth gushed out. In the poisonous water that can even dissolve the soul, she was able to transform into three thousand clones like a fish in water.

The blue-eyed golden ape retreated thirty miles, and the golden dragon and snake stick forms suddenly merged. The dragon head bit the snake's tail to form a ring, and the demon pattern was like a chain wrapped around his body. He pounded his chest seven times, and each blow doubled the gravity within a hundred miles.

During the seventh strike, the Golden Gang Dragon Snake Stick pierced through the golden rainbow of heaven and earth, and even the weak water was forged into thousands of golden needles wherever it passed!

The true form of the Bi Bo Yao Ji suddenly emerged from the shadow of the golden ape, and the Cang Ming Pearl had turned into a dagger and stabbed at her back.

The blue-eyed golden ape suddenly turned around, and the golden dragon snake stick in his hand suddenly enlarged a hundred times and chopped fiercely at the real body of the Bi Bo Yao Ji.

The shadow of the stick was like a collapsing mountain, with the power to destroy the world, tearing a dark crack in the void. The pupils of Bi Bo Yao Ji suddenly shrank, and she hurriedly blocked it with Cang Ming Pearl, but heard a crisp "crack" sound, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the pearl!
"Puff!" Bi Bo Yao Ji spat out a mouthful of dark blue blood, and her body retreated thousands of feet. She looked down at the damaged Cang Ming Pearl in her hand, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, and then turned into a raging anger: "How dare you hurt my life weapon!"

The green-eyed golden ape grinned, revealing its white fangs: "A mere broken bead, is it worthy of being called a life-long Taoist weapon? Today, I will let you see what a real top-grade Taoist weapon is!" Before the words fell, the golden dragon snake stick in the green-eyed golden ape's hand suddenly trembled violently, and dense patterns of weapons appeared on the stick, and finally gathered into a golden rainbow that penetrated the sky and the earth. In the rainbow, a golden dragon and a black snake could be vaguely seen entangled and circling, emitting a heart-pounding pressure.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Bi Bo Yao Ji used the water escape technique and escaped for her life.

……

Li Mu's spiritual sense swept across the eastern battlefield, and the battle between Chi Lian Huo Feng and Chi Xiao Zi had entered a white-hot stage.

The Red Fire Phoenix held a fire feather fan in her hand, and suddenly spread out a seven-color sky. Glazed blue flames, mysterious purple flames, and gilded red flames flowed between her feathers, burning the void into spider web cracks, and endless scorching gas rose up. Her long red hair was like a burning stream of fire, and the depths of her pupils reflected the phantoms of the fire seeds of the heavens and the worlds. The lava under her feet condensed into a twelve-grade karma fire red lotus, and the lotus heart was surging with the original fire essence of the chaos.

Chi Xiaozi made a fire gesture with his hands, and the chaotic aura of the Wanxiang Cauldron suddenly surged. The ancient inscriptions on the body of the cauldron lit up one after another, and three Samadhi fire dragons rose from the mouth of the cauldron, with the dragon horns wrapped with burning wind that could melt the stars. His red hair stood up, and the "Nine Turns of Flame Gang" secret of the Danding Sect gushed out from the pores all over his body. Dense red Taoist patterns appeared under his old skin - that was the forbidden technique "Burning Veins Technique" to refine the life elixir fire into the meridians!
The moment the two flames collided, the entire sky burst like a glass cup. The Scarlet Fire Phoenix suddenly threw the Fire Feather Fan into the sky, and three thousand fire feathers turned into a rain of arrows that set the field on fire. The tail of each arrow had a trace of burning the sky and boiling the sea.

Chi Xiaozi's hair and beard were all burning, but he bit his tongue with a fierce smile, and wrote the burning alchemy formula in the air with his blood: "Ten thousand fires return to the ruins, and the cauldron suppresses the eight wastelands!"

The Wanxiang Cauldron suddenly turned upside down, and a black hole-like vortex appeared at the mouth of the cauldron, swallowing up all the fire feathers in the sky. Dark red liquid oozed out of the cracks in the cauldron, which was the essence of the strange fire that was forcibly refined.

Chi Xiaozi was bleeding from all seven orifices but he couldn't stop laughing: "I have refined three thousand strange fires, and you have only this little Taoist skill..."

Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!
The incandescent sky-burning seed suddenly exploded in the belly of the cauldron, and eighty-four thousand fire patterns actually carved heavenly thunder patterns on the inner wall of the cauldron. The Taotie patterns on the cauldron ears let out a shrill wail, and the bronze cauldron body began to emit a red light like lava.

Chi Xiaozi was horrified to discover that his mental connection with the Wanxiang Cauldron was being eroded by some more ancient law of fire.

"Do you think my fire is so easy to refine?"

The Red Fire Phoenix laughed sarcastically and said, "Please enjoy the true meaning of my fire path!"

Before he could finish his words, the Wanxiang Cauldron suddenly let out a mournful cry like a prehistoric beast, and a pillar of fire that pierced through the sky and earth spewed out from the mouth of the cauldron. Chi Xiaozi frantically tried to make hand gestures to take back his natal artifact, but saw dense red-gold cracks appearing on the body of the cauldron.

"No!!!" Chi Xiaozi's eyes were bloodshot as he watched the Wanxiang Cauldron explode. The broken bronze fragments, carrying the chaotic fire essence, rolled back and burned through the flames that protected his body.

……

Seeing this scene, Li Mu smiled with satisfaction. The Red Refining Fire Phoenix did not disappoint him. Not only did it successfully resist the opponent's fierce offensive, but it also counterattacked with its unique fire truth, making him pay a heavy price.

Li Mu's mind turned and he looked towards the western battlefield.

The black jade rock lizard revealed its true form, its mouth bladder gushing with blood, and it let out an earth-shaking roar. The black rock seal under its feet suddenly expanded a hundred times and turned into a giant mountain-like object that fell down with a loud bang. The seal patterns surged with infinite earth spirits, and thousands of rock ridges broke out of the ground from the earth veins, turning the area within a radius of ten miles into a purgatory of spikes.

Innate Taoist patterns emerged on the surface of countless rugged stone pillars, and condensed in the void into eighty-one black and yellow rock spears with murderous aura that pierced through the sky with the power to collapse mountains and split the earth.

The robes of the withered tree master fluttered like rolling green waves, and the tip of the evergreen staff in his hand burst into brilliant green light. The annual rings engraved on the staff body spun madly, and seven gnarled ancient trees suddenly emerged from the ground under his feet, with vitality flowing through their leaf veins.

The verdant roots crushed the attacking rock spears like dragons, and the broken earth spirit fragments actually took root and sprouted in mid-air, turning into an emerald vine net that covered the sky and the sun, and counterattacked down. The place where the two domains collided exploded, and the ground collapsed into a deep pit thousands of feet deep.

The eyes of the black jade rock lizard burst into mysterious light, and the entire rock layer squirmed and reorganized like a living thing, condensing into 360 stone warriors wearing armor bones, holding huge shields to form an ancient battle formation and advancing step by step.

The withered tree master tapped the staff with his fingers, and a hundred thousand green leaves fell from the void. Countless leaves turned into three-foot green blades, and the sword formation turned and crushed the stone figurine into powder.

When a low roar like that of an ancient ferocious beast came from deep in the rock layer, nine black rock dragons wrapped in chaotic evil spirits broke out of the ground, and each scale was branded with the mark of the Dao that suppressed all things.

The Master of the Dead Tree suddenly inserted the staff into his heart. In an instant, the blood dyed the tip of the staff red. Above the nine heavens, a blue river containing the vitality of creation descended. In the waves, the innate wood spirit from the creation of the world floated, and it started a never-ending devouring battle with the earth dragon.

In the center of the battlefield, ochre and green spiritual powers were like two ancient blue dragons tearing and rolling each other. The square seal under the feet of the black jade rock lizard showed the true form of Taiyue Mountain. Behind the man on the dead tree, the Jianmu Tongtian Dharma image appeared. At the moment when the two powerful Taoist rhymes collided, dazzling auroras burst out from the mountains and rivers for hundreds of miles at the same time, and even the void was left with broken cracks that would never heal.

……

Seeing that Xue'er, the Blue-Eyed Golden Ape and the others were fighting in such a stalemate and had occupied Shangguan Feng, Li Mu relaxed slightly. He immediately gathered his mind and concentrated on helping Qi Jue Dao Dan, preparing to face the upcoming fourth wave of thunder tribulation.

At this time, the signs of the fourth wave of thunder tribulation had begun to appear. Thunderclouds rolled in the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Compared with the previous thunder tribulation, this wave was obviously more fierce. The purple thunder quickly transformed into golden arcs, like the wrath of heavenly punishment, about to pour down.

This fourth wave of thunder tribulation is the "Soul-killing Golden Thunder Tribulation!"

Li Mu looked solemn, and he clasped his hands together. The chaotic true energy in his body surged like a river, continuously pouring into the Qi Jue Dao Dan.

The elixir patterns on the surface of the Seven Absolute Dao Pill changed again. The Wuji Dao patterns and the Creation Dao patterns intertwined to form a mysterious Tai Chi diagram. The Yin and Yang energies circulated continuously, trying to resist the impending destructive force.

"boom--!"

The first thunder tribulation finally arrived. It was not an ordinary thunder, but a golden lightning pillar that pierced through the sky and the earth. In the lightning pillar, countless roaring shadows of thunder beasts could be vaguely seen, carrying the power to destroy the world.

Before the lightning pillar arrived, the void had already begun to collapse, and the spiritual energy within a thousand miles was instantly drained away, turning into a vacuum zone.

Faced with this "Soul-killing Golden Thunder Tribulation" that was powerful enough to shake the heavens and the earth, Li Mu's mind was tense to the extreme. This attack was of no small importance. If he was not careful, not only would the Seven Absolute Dao Pills turn into nothing.

"The power of creation can reverse the world!" Li Mu growled and pushed the Tai Chi diagram floating on the surface of the Qi Jue Dao Dan to the extreme. The Yin and Yang energies rotated faster and faster, forming a powerful protective shield that tightly wrapped the Qi Jue Dao Dan.

"Bang!" The first golden lightning column hit the Tai Chi diagram fiercely. The moment the soul-killing golden lightning touched the Tai Chi diagram, the Yin-Yang fish reversed and broke apart, and the Dan pattern was split into spider web cracks. (End of this chapter)
