Journey to the head

The heavy clouds rolled and turned pitch black in an instant. The originally clear blue sky shook suddenly, as if a giant beast was rolling and roaring in it.

A dark iron curtain was drawn open on the Biluo Peak. The mighty punishment from heaven and the overwhelming power of heaven were in sight. Even though they had witnessed the experiences of many of their fellow disciples, the aura of destruction still made everyone tremble with fear.

Golden elixir thunder tribulation!

The next moment, a female voice behind Lu Qian screamed, "Heavenly Tribulation!"

Her voice was filled with fear: "It's too sudden. I'm not ready yet!"

But the heaven’s calamity is about to fall, and God is sending down disasters to test you. To see whether you, a little thief who has been stealing the fortune of heaven and earth and fantasizing about being perfect and flawless, taking only the treasures of heaven and earth but refusing to give back anything in return, have what it takes!
If you can make it through, you will achieve the Golden Elixir Dao Fruit, live to be eight hundred years old, be worshipped as a true man, and start a brand new chapter on the path of the Great Dao.

If one fails to make it, one will either turn into ashes or his life span will be greatly shortened. There is no escape from death, and all his cultivation will return to the world.

Lu Qian asked Wang Yu in a deep voice: "Do you still have the Creation Fire Pill?"

Wang Yu took out a brocade box from his storage bag and said, "After fifty years of saving lives, this is the only one left in the treasury. I thought it might be useful to welcome the head of the sect, so I just happened to bring it with me."

Lu Qian nodded and handed the brocade box to the woman: "Go, don't forget the secret of overcoming the tribulation that I taught you before."

The woman's eyes were filled with gratitude, and she knelt down hastily and kowtowed: "Thank you very much, my lord, for your kindness. I will be at your disposal from now on!"

Then he hugged Yu Jiao tightly again, gave Yu Jiao a big kiss on his chubby face, then turned his body and shot straight into the sky.

At this time, layers of dark clouds were pressing down, as if the entire sky was falling.

The disciples of Yunshan were all shocked. It was a tall and plump girl with a very hot body, fiery red eyes, deep facial features, and a wild temptation in her beauty!

But who is this person? Returning with the headmaster, could he be a new disciple of Yunshan?
But, she is full of evil spirit!
At this time, Yu Jiao shouted, "Huo Jin! If you want to marry me, don't die!"

Huo Jin responded loudly and shook his body. A giant red-scaled python revealed its original form, a hundred feet long, and flew into the calamity cloud. Its scales glowed like charcoal and evil spirit spread everywhere.

So that's it. Is this the monster that the leader brought back? The future guardian beast?
If he can survive the golden elixir catastrophe, he will be another helper to our sect.

Tao Zhongxian looked at the giant red-scaled python tumbling in the clouds with mixed feelings, feeling a little envious and a little nervous.

He was waiting for the heavenly tribulation to come. The tribulation energy on his forehead had already condensed into substance, and the heavenly tribulation would come at any time. Therefore, at that moment just now, he thought that it was his own heavenly tribulation that had arrived.

Later, when he heard thunder, he realized that he could predict through his own calamity energy that what was waiting for him was not a thunder tribulation, and he did not feel like he was being locked by the might of heaven. Naturally, this thunder tribulation had nothing to do with him.

Boom! There was a sudden loud noise in the sky, and the calamity cloud suddenly shrank inwards, truly taking shape!

Thousands of feet high in the sky above the Biluo Peak, the calamity clouds were clearly distinguished from one another. Thick blue-purple lightning rolled like a dragon, and dense and tiny arcs of electricity were flowing and surging. The entire calamity cloud was resounding with a sharp buzzing sound.

There are seven floors from top to bottom.

Everyone in Yunshan looked solemn. It seemed that Huo Jin had bad luck and was facing the seventh level of thunder tribulation!
Over the past few decades, several people have fallen from the seventh level of calamity.

Lu Qian sighed in his heart, maybe Huo Jin had too good luck some time ago? He had completed the foundation building in the Baoguang Realm, but it was very likely that he would not be able to pass the tribulation. Under such circumstances, he met Yu Jiao and himself, and was taken away from the small realm with no future to the Yuanchen Realm. This must be said to be great luck and great fortune.

Luck has its ups and downs. If you were so lucky before, naturally you’re not so lucky now.

"My lord, can Huo Jin succeed?" Yu Jiao's face was full of nervousness, and he looked much less naughty, as if he had grown up a lot in an instant.

If it were any other time, Lu Qian would have made a few jokes, but now he nodded and consoled her: "Huo Jin has extraordinary talent, has the blood of a Basilisk, has amazing defense, strong Qi and blood, and has a strange devouring ability. Plus the Good Fortune Fire Pill I just gave him, he should be safe."

As he spoke, Huo Jin let out a roar, opened his big mouth, revealed his fangs, and his upper and lower jaws suddenly separated, almost 180 degrees!

There was a loud rustling sound of wind, and a giant vortex took shape. The first layer of thundercloud that was about to fall was unexpectedly swallowed up by the fire whale like water!
There were a few crackling sounds, and the remaining tiny electric arc flashed across Huo Jin's body, causing no pain or itching.

The first level was broken in an instant, but no one felt relieved. Huo Jin was still in a heavy mood. He circled his body to condense demonic energy, preparing to face the next level of heavenly tribulation.

Tao Zhongxian observed carefully, hoping to accumulate more experience for his own tribulation.

He knew that the power of each of the seven levels of thunder tribulation was increasing. From the third level, it reached the attack power of the initial golden elixir, and at the fifth level, it had reached the level of the middle golden elixir. The seventh level even had the attack power of the perfect golden elixir.

This is too difficult for someone who has completed the foundation building stage, and even the Fortune Fire Pill is not a guarantee.

I don’t know how many levels of calamity I will face—

His eyes suddenly widened!

A throbbing sensation came from somewhere, a terrifying aura was brewing in the void, and the sky was shaking!

At this time, Huo Jin had just accepted the baptism of the second heavenly tribulation. The lightning submerged the python's body, but was penetrated by it in the next moment. The scales became brighter and brighter in the lightning, but it was still unharmed.

The third layer of calamity cloud suddenly shook, and trembled under the strange interference. Another large layer of calamity cloud was generated nearby. The two actually began to approach each other, showing signs of fusion!

The might of heaven that could destroy everything doubled in size and was so terrifying that it made everyone panic.

It is actually a double heavenly calamity superimposed on each other, which will push the power of the original heavenly calamity to an irresistible point!

Lu Qian's face changed, and before he could ask, Tao Zhongxian had already rushed to the ground: "Master, my heavenly tribulation has arrived!"

But once the double aura of heavenly tribulation was touched, the brewing time of the heavenly tribulation was accelerated several times, and it was too late!

Everyone was shocked. Tao Boliang's body trembled, and he was about to dive at him, but he saw a flash of five-colored light, and Lu Qian had already caught Tao Zhongxian and took him away from the range of Biluo Peak.

The Nascent Soul's escape speed was exerted to the extreme, and five-colored escape light was seen piercing through the sky. As Tao Zhongxian was taken away, a large cloud of calamity followed closely, and the fire brocade sky calamity in the sky suddenly returned to normal.

But everyone's eyes were fixed on the five-colored escaping light, and their faces looked even more panicked.

It was seen that the heavenly tribulation above Tao Zhongxian was rapidly becoming stronger. It sensed the presence of another person's aura within the range of the heavenly tribulation, and its strength immediately doubled!
"Junior brother!" Jiang Qingfeng shouted, "Quickly let go of Zhongxian!"

But Lu Qian's escape light did not stop, and pointed directly to the spiritual place near the foot of Biluo Peak where a large area of ​​lotus leaves reached the sky.

Baolian Lake!
Lu Qian wants to send Tao Zhongxian into the spiritual vein to face the calamity!
It turns out that although cultivators cannot rely on external objects to face calamities, they can always call upon more powerful forces of heaven and earth in places with abundant spiritual energy, and their own spiritual power will flow more smoothly, so the chance of success will be higher.

When facing a natural disaster, even a little more chance of success would be great!

But other people's heavenly tribulation, whoever enters will die! This is an iron rule that has not been broken for thousands of years. Even Tao Zhongxian shouted: "Master, leave me alone!"

But Lu Qian's spiritual power was boiling, and he had already pushed his speed to the extreme. At the same time, a white light flashed between his eyebrows, and an invisible wave enveloped his body, spiraling forward, doubling his speed in an instant. Spell: Instantaneous Flight!

This ray of five-colored light reached the foot of the mountain in an instant!

However, the speed at which the heavenly tribulation was enraged was even beyond Lu Qian’s imagination!

The majesty of heaven cannot be touched, and the will of heaven cannot be violated!
At this moment, the coldness of death enveloped his entire body. Without thinking, Lu Qian covered his entire body with the divine light of creation. Then, he activated his spiritual power, and with a loud bang, he threw Tao Zhongxian in his hand out like a cannonball.

The next moment, an invisible wave swept over Lu Qian!

A cloud of blood mist exploded in the air, and everyone screamed loudly, their minds going blank.

"Head!"

But then I saw a five-colored light covering the sky and a figure rising up.

A layer of mist swirled around Lu Qian, making him look ethereal and brilliant.

Lu Qian, looking normal!
The disciples cheered loudly, and the sound shook all around.

Enter the range of other people's calamity clouds, save people from danger, and escape safely. A new legend appears before everyone's eyes!

He disappeared for fifty years and shocked the world as soon as he returned. He really deserves to be the leader!
There were also a few new disciples who had joined Biluo Peak in the past fifty years. They had grown up listening to the legend of Lu Qian, but after all, they had never seen his true face. When they saw such a legend, they were immediately shocked and speechless, and were even more enthusiastic than the old disciples.

With that throw, Tao Zhongxian shot into the spiritual vein of Baolian Lake like lightning. Layer after layer of mechanisms around his body unfolded, spewing out dense tail flames in the opposite direction, and finally stopped before flying out of the spiritual vein.

At this moment, the five-fold calamity cloud suddenly took shape!
Tao Boliang bowed down at once, his face full of gratitude: "Master, you saved my brother from the calamity without caring about your own safety. I will always remember this kindness in my heart, and I will never be able to repay you even if I die!"

Lu Qian smiled and said, "Zhongxian is also my Yunshan disciple, how can I not save him? I will do my best, no need to thank me."

Jade Dragon Fairy wiped a cold sweat and wanted to curse but had to swallow all the dirty words. The feeling of death just now was too horrible. It was definitely not as easy as Lu Qian said.

In fact, Lu Qian was also sweating profusely. His clothes had been completely torn, so he could only create a layer of mist to cover himself.

Just at the last moment, his extremely sharp consciousness gave a crazy warning, so he threw Tao Zhongxian out a moment in advance.

But even so, he was still swept by the aura of heavenly calamity. That was not the real heavenly calamity. The real heavenly calamity was still brewing. It was just an aura of heavenly calamity that was stimulated by anger. If he had not put on his innate magical power and divine light of creation in advance, he would have been dead now!

From the time he caught Tao Zhongxian to the time he threw him out, it only took a breath.

In just a moment, if it weren't for a lot of luck and strong life-saving methods, Lu Qian would have died by now.

The power of the heavenly calamity really cannot be challenged!
If it happens again, Lu Qian will definitely not dare to act so arrogantly.

He looked in the direction of Tao Zhongxian. Fortunately, he escaped at the last moment. Now the calamity cloud has returned to normal and condensed into shape. Otherwise, once the heavenly calamity took shape, not only Lu Qian would not be able to withstand it, but Tao Zhongxian would also surely die from the extremely powerful power.

And now, the fifth level of heavenly tribulation has occurred. It seems that Tao Zhongxian is really lucky.

Huh?
Tao Zhongxian had already deployed his skills and entered the first layer of calamity clouds. However, the clouds were neither blue nor white, with no thunder or lightning, no sky fire, no strong wind, and no Yellow Spring...

Not only is it not a common thunder disaster, it is also not a wind disaster, fire disaster, or water disaster. What is this?

"It's a very rare calamity." Lin Le said, "Observing the calamity energy can predict the type and approximate time of the calamity. When Zhongxian's calamity energy was generated, we were very surprised and could not recognize the type of calamity."

"Afterwards, I searched all over the classics and sought help from all directions. Only then did I find out from the records of Qinglian Zhenzong thousands of years ago that this was a Nether Tribulation."

"A heavenly tribulation specifically targeting the soul!"

Lu Qian suddenly realized, but felt heavy in his heart.

So that's how it is. The original intention of the heavenly tribulation is to reduce the number of cultivators and restore the balance of the operation of heaven and earth. Only the truly outstanding can survive the fierce fire to refine real gold.

Therefore, heavenly tribulations often target cultivators' weaknesses. In addition to the thunder tribulation that destroys everything, those who are good at fire will suffer water tribulation, and those who are good at earth will suffer wind tribulation... This is normal.

Tao Zhongxian’s greatest weakness lies in his soul!
His soul was damaged, and even after recovery, it could not be fully restored, and the strength of his consciousness was only half of that of an ordinary person.

Therefore, he suffered a calamity specifically targeting his soul!
At this time, Huo Jin had already passed the third level of thunder tribulation, and the fourth level was about to strike. However, her Basque bloodline was very strong. When she was shocked and knocked away by the Jade Dragon Fairy in the past, she was only dizzy for a moment. Now, she could still easily deal with the strong tribulation, and even swallowed a lot of lightning directly.

So Lu Qian moved slightly and paid more attention to Tao Zhongxian's situation.

Tao Boliang seemed to be encouraging himself, and also to be comforting Lu Qian when he murmured in a low voice: "This kid will definitely be fine. He has the help of the headmaster, and he also got the Good Fortune Fire Pill before. He also spent seven or eight years to build a machine to deal with the Nether Tribulation. He will definitely succeed."

But a huge sphere appeared above Baolian Lake, and Tao Zhongxian's body had been swallowed by the sphere.

This sphere was suspended in the first layer of calamity clouds. When the calamity was about to fall, there was a sudden click of a mechanism, and a large patch of dark blue light appeared. A series of shells were fired from the sphere and exploded in the calamity clouds. Clusters of dark blue debris covered the calamity clouds, and the calamity clouds were like boiling oil meeting water. It burst and melted away in an instant.

Lu Qian was slightly surprised and couldn't help laughing.

It turned out to be the Corrupted Soul Phantom Iron!
That was a cannonball made from the fragments of Corrupted Soul Phantom Iron. Corrupted Soul Phantom Iron specifically attacks the soul, and this Phantom Tribulation Cloud also attacks the soul. The two have the same power, and they are like needles against wheat spikes, with the same poles repelling each other, and the repulsion cancels out.

The first layer of calamity clouds broke, and the sphere slowly rotated in the air. More and more machines stretched out from the wall of the sphere hole. Various lights flashed, scattering colorful light in the lotus pond.

Seeing this scene, Lu Qian shook his head and smiled. It turned out that this kid was so well prepared. The Nether Tribulation targeted the soul, and he targeted the Nether Tribulation, using strange machines to pave his own way to overcome the tribulation.

On the peaks and hills, thunder roared continuously, the destructive thunder vowed to tear Huo Jin's body apart, and a bluish-white light flowed, the silent power was only to destroy the soul. Everyone in Yunshan looked up and down, sometimes shouting in surprise for Tao Zhongxian, and sometimes sweating for Huo Jin.

Finally, the thunder faded away, and the giant python with a broken and charred body suddenly regained its vitality and flew up, shedding its charred shell as if shedding its skin. Its huge body, which was two hundred feet long, was shocking.

The calamity dissipated, and the sphere that had been peeling off layer by layer like an onion completely fell apart and collapsed. The pale-faced young man rose up, and in an instant, a storm arose on the Baolian Lake, and the vortex of spiritual energy surged into his body like a tidal wave!

Huo Jin and Tao Zhongxian both successfully survived the tribulation!
Two golden elixir spiritual pressures rose up, announcing to the world that the Yunshan Sect had added two more golden elixir real people!
Huo Jin, whose entire body was flaming red like burning jade, did not choose to transform into a dragon, but instead regained the bloodline of the Basara snake and bowed down to Lu Qian. Without the Good Fortune Fire Pill, even if he had extraordinary talent, he would not be able to survive the seven levels of heavenly calamity.

After setting up the golden elixir escape light, Tao Zhongxian also knelt down in front of Lu Qian. He shouted excitedly: "Flesh and blood are weak, but the machine can ascend! Master, I did it!"

At this moment, the disciples of Yunshan cheered like thunder!

In the distant sky, a line of blue and purple fire burned through the clouds and flew towards the Biluo Peak. (End of this chapter)
