When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 641 Overcoming the Tribulation
"Bad news came from the Immortal Cultivation Circle. Xuanji Immortal Mansion's Tianjiao disciple Zi Su died from an overdose of Nine Dragon Pills and was removed from the Tianjiao List..."

"Bad news came from the immortal cultivation circle. The Kalachakra Zen sect's genius disciple, Bald Donkey, failed to successfully survive the Nascent Soul stage thunder tribulation and died. He was removed from the genius list..."

Chen Tingquan silently turned off the new video of bad news and couldn't help but sigh.

What good news!
When Lecturer Ding exploded twice in a row at the beginning, there were still many players of "Against the Heaven's Will" watching the fun.

But soon, the trend of death by explosion swept across all major servers of the game, and it was simply overwhelming.

On the Tianjiao list, personnel changes are extremely frequent.

Many familiar old names suddenly disappear, or return after a long time.

For zero-氪 players like Chen Tingquan, or pseudo-natural cultivators, body explosion is still a relatively distant thing.

But for ordinary kryptonians, they have already started to prepare for their first explosion.

The zero-paying players are also very happy. What's wrong with you spending a lot of money? You still exploded before us!
Of course, it doesn’t matter to the big spenders. They may be quite panicked at the beginning, but after experiencing it for the first time, they will get used to it.

For Tou Fangfang's cultivation group, what they should pay more attention to at this moment is not the explosion, but the thunder tribulation.

Li Wenhao said with emotion: "I say, are all of you so Buddhist?
"How come I, a zero-kryptonian, am the first person in the group to have to go through a tribulation? Is this scientific? Is this reasonable?"

Chen Tingquan laughed: "Who told you to borrow time?"

The three of them were on different tracks. Li Wenhao borrowed the most, and directly borrowed to the foundation-building stage.

After that, Li Wenhao also maintained a normal speed of cultivation, and teamed up with everyone every day to go to the wilderness to fight monsters, mine, and collect some materials from the auction house.

The upgrade speed of this game is not always constant, but there is a special catch-up mechanism.

Simply put, the players' cultivation speed is also related to the game's launch time.

When the server was first launched, although the players were still in the Qi Refining stage, their training speed was not very fast.

However, as the server is opened for a long time, even if players reach the Foundation Establishment Stage and Core Formation Stage, their speed will not be much slower than that of the Qi Refining Stage.

Players who enter the game later can enjoy a special catch-up mechanism, which allows them to achieve a cultivation efficiency far exceeding that of old players during the Qi Refining Stage.

This efficiency will continue until new players have caught up to about 80% of the theoretical practice limit at the original server launch time.

So, after playing for a while, Li Wenhao naturally reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage and was ready to break through to the Jindan stage.

But compared to the mindless breakthrough in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the Core Formation Stage presents a whole new challenge.

That is a heavenly calamity.

According to the setting, there will be thunder tribulations at the Jindan stage. If you pass the thunder tribulations, the Jindan will be formed. If you fail to pass the thunder tribulations, you will die.

The intensity of the thunder tribulation will be determined by the quality of the player's practice during the foundation-building period, that is, the various detailed attributes.

The stronger the thunder tribulation, the higher the risk of death, but the better the golden elixir formed.

The quality of the golden elixir is related to the potential for future cultivation. In the game "Against the Heaven's Path", the golden elixir is a simple and crude multiplication factor value.

Depending on the quality of the golden elixir, the player's cultivation in the Jindan period will have four different multiplier levels, namely 0.8x, 1x, 1.2x and 1.5x.

Assuming that the player is enduring the highest intensity thunder tribulation, then after breaking through to the Jindan stage, he can obtain 1.5 times the golden elixir. This means that all the character's values ​​and attributes will be multiplied by 1.5 times.

Of course, achieving this condition is quite demanding.

Players must not only make good plans during the foundation-building period to make their character attributes surpass those of other foundation-building players, but they must also make good plans for the cultivation of elixirs and max out their magic weapons.

Moreover, we must ensure that we can survive this strongest thunder tribulation.

If one cannot make it through, the physical body will turn into ashes directly, which is equivalent to an explosion and death. One will have to practice from the beginning again, and it will take some time before one can survive the tribulation again.

Starting from the stage of forming the elixir, each subsequent realm requires one to go through thunder tribulations, and the intensity of the thunder tribulations becomes increasingly higher.

From the perspective of special effects, different thunder tribulations will have different manifestations.

A relatively clear distinction can be made based on the scale, color of the thunderclouds, shape of the lightning, etc.

According to the experience of top krypton guys, the thunder tribulation during the Jindan stage should be the most friendly and gentle of all thunder tribulations.

Those kryptonians who can make it to the list of geniuses basically have to withstand the strongest thunder tribulation in the Jindan stage, and naturally they have also obtained 1.5 times the quality of the golden elixir.

But when they reached the Nascent Soul stage, these geniuses began to frequently fail.

For example, as shown in the previous bad news video, the Kalachakra Zen sect’s talented disciple Bald Donkey was struck to death by the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation.

This is most likely because he did not lay a solid foundation when using the Time Loan, and this fragile Nascent Soul cannot withstand the super-strong Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation.

At this time, Li Wenhao also felt very weak.

Because of his foundation building, a lot of his cultivation was obtained by relying on time loans, which are themselves fake.

Although the thunder tribulation in the Jindan stage is the weakest in the game and those kryptonians can easily get through it, Li Wenhao still feels a lot of pressure.

This was not only because he was not confident in his own strength, but also because once reincarnated, all the cultivation borrowed from the Time Loan would disappear. If he had not borrowed the Time Loan, then even if he was struck to death by the thunder tribulation, he could return to his original cultivation level after a few days of practice and could reincarnate again;
If you borrow the Time Loan and are killed by a thunderbolt, you either have to continue borrowing the Time Loan or it will take a long time before you can survive the thunderbolt again.

"Don't be afraid. All the members of our Tou Fangfang team are cheering for you!" Chen Tingquan encouraged.

Li Wenhao said, "If you have the time, why don't you give me some money so I can buy some magic weapons that can reduce the damage of thunder tribulation."

Chen Tingquan shook his head: "That's wrong!

“We cultivators believe that our fate is in our own hands, not in the hands of God, and we cannot rely so much on external things.

"If you tell others about the mere Jindan thunder tribulation and you use a magic weapon to withstand it, everyone will laugh at you."

Li Wenhao sighed silently, it seems that he can no longer rely on his brothers.

It can only be said that there was something wrong with this Tou Fangfang group from the very beginning. Obviously, these three people all had money, but they all spent it in coins instead of spending it on real money. This showed their resolute will, so that they had a miserable time even in a small sect like the Henggang Sect.

Then it all depends on luck!

Li Wenhao left the sect on a flying sword and headed for the designated tribulation point near the sect.

This game is also quite humorous, there is even such a thing as a designated tribulation point, just like an examination room.

But from the perspective of the game's plot, this setting is actually very reasonable.

Crossing the calamity would attract heavenly thunder, so of course it couldn't be done in the sect. What if the heavenly thunder struck and hurt other innocent cultivators? Even if there were no innocent cultivators, it would be bad to damage the sect's buildings and flowers and plants.

According to the settings of general novels, one would usually find a deserted place in the wilderness to survive the disaster.

But "Against the Heaven's Will" is different, every sect has a designated tribulation point nearby.

Of course, this is not mandatory, and players can go to the wild to survive if they wish.

However, these designated thunder tribulation points will have special magic arrays that can slightly weaken the damage of thunder tribulation. In addition, if the player is killed by thunder tribulation, the NPC can help the player collect the body as quickly as possible.

Therefore, players are still more inclined to come to the tribulation point to overcome the tribulation.

The other members of Tou Fangfang's cultivation group followed over, all wanting to see the grand scene of transcending the tribulation.

Before Li Wenhao had time to make preparations, he saw a player dressed in costumes from another sect quickly coming up to him.

"Brother, do you want to see the success rate of overcoming the tribulation?

"I brought my own materials, you just need to give me 10 middle-grade spirit stones."

Li Wenhao was stunned for a moment. How could such a thing happen?

He took a look at the name above the guy's head. His ID was "Street Rat" and his title was an inner disciple of Mingxing Pavilion.

"Mingxing Pavilion? Is it the sect that is related to transcending the tribulation?"

Li Wenhao instantly realized that this man was probably not a liar, he was trying to sell business.

Just like the disciples of the Kalachakra Zen sect who promote time loans, the Mingxing Pavilion, as a sect related to the heavenly tribulation, seems to also have some businesses related to the heavenly tribulation.

"Can we also see the success rate of overcoming the tribulation?" Li Wenhao asked curiously.

The street rat quickly explained: "Of course! There are a lot of discussions on the forum, haven't you read it?
“We in the Fate Star Pavilion have special sect secrets, all of which are related to the heavenly tribulation.

“Before, everyone’s cultivation was not high enough, and no one was able to transcend the tribulation. The welfare benefits of my sect were just for show. Now, business is finally coming in.

“In short, one of the benefits of our sect is that you can check the target’s success rate in overcoming the tribulation, but you need some materials to use this spell.

"I brought all the materials with me. You just need to pay for the materials plus the labor cost. It's 10 medium-grade spirit stones. This is the same price for all servers now. No one is cheated."

Li Wenhao hesitated briefly.

10 medium-grade spirit stones are 10 yuan, which is still a bit expensive. However, considering that many materials in this game can be sold for money, the more you spend, the more you earn, so Li Wenhao can afford it.

Although it is definitely cheaper to bring your own materials, it is not worth the effort since you have already reached the tribulation point.

For the sake of safety, Li Wenhao even quickly exited the game and searched online for the charging standards for the success rate of tribulation crossing among the disciples of Mingxing Pavilion. It turned out that the price on most servers was indeed around 10 medium-grade spirit stones.

Only then did Li Wenhao feel relieved, thinking that the other party should not be a liar.

You can't blame him for being too cautious. After all, human minds are unpredictable. Moreover, in a game where one can delete the account and run away at any time, there are simply too many scammers.

"Okay, check it out for me then."

Li Wenhao clicked on the other party and traded 10 medium-grade spirit stones.

I only saw Street Rat start to cast a spell, and special effects similar to stars and constellations appeared above his head. Then, a thin ray of light fell from the sky, passed through the nebula pattern above his head, and hit his forehead.

"Congratulations! Your success rate in overcoming the tribulation is 87%." Street Rat typed.

Li Wenhao couldn't help but be delighted: "Oh? It's so high?"
