He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

What's amazing is that the moment he got his hands on it, he sensed a secret technique within it.

"This, this is actually the Former Secret, one of the Nine Secrets!" The young man was extremely shocked, and even with his composure, he could not control his expression.

Because this opportunity came too suddenly and was too powerful.

The secret of the former character can cultivate the primordial spirit, make the divine consciousness immortal, and even affect the physical body, expanding divinity in an unparalleled way!

Moreover, once one reaches a high level, this secret can also allow one to foresee everything in advance.

The name "Qian" comes from this fact. The human body's sea of ​​consciousness is the most mysterious, possessing endless divine power. When it reaches a certain level, it can foresee everything and know it in advance.

It can be said that once the sea of ​​consciousness is unearthed, endless secrets will be unlocked. The "Previous Word Secret" is the main focus of its cultivation, allowing everything to be done one step ahead, which is equivalent to glimpsing a part of one's destiny, which is extremely terrifying.

The young man, who went by the pseudonym Wolf God, sneered, "From birth until now, I've only been to the Eastern Wilderness once, yet I've easily obtained one of the Nine Secrets. My luck is simply invincible. Whose luck can compare to mine! Who can! In this life, I will surely attain the Dao!"

At this moment, thanks to the secrets of the past, the young man became even more arrogant. Such a life experience was too amazing. Not long ago, he found a Divine Phoenix Cave in the Northern Plains and used the blood of the Undying Divine Phoenix to cleanse his body, making his physical body comparable to that of a great power.

Only two months have passed, and he has only been in the Eastern Wilderness for a short time, yet he has already obtained one of the Nine Secrets. Moreover, both of these opportunities came about in an absurd way, as if they had fallen from the sky. How could this not make him arrogant?

"I want to see what kind of talent these geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness are capable of. Besides Zhou Qing, is there anyone else worth my attention?"

The wolf god transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared into the distance, intending to wander around the Eastern Wilderness in search of an adversary.

Meanwhile, Zhou Qing and the other two had been inside the Divine Furnace of Fire for a full month.

Zhou Qing was in a state of mind free of distractions and oblivion of self and external things. There was nothing else before him but the Great Dao, and he was immersed in a profound state of unity with the Dao.

At this moment, the figure in the Divine Furnace of Li Huo had evolved to the realm of a sage. Although this change in realm was too advanced for the three of them, it did not prevent them from imprinting it into their minds in advance.

It's okay if you don't understand it now. When you break through to the Saint level in the future, this scene will truly show its power and save the three of you a lot of detours.

Based on the ages in the original work, the protagonist was already twenty-four or twenty-five years old when he first met Jiang Yifei. Two or three years later, when he first met Ji Haoyue, he was around twenty years old, which means that Jiang Yifei was six or seven years older than Ji Haoyue. Then the protagonist was about one year older than Ji Haoyue. So now the protagonist is twelve years old, and Jiang Yifei should be seventeen or eighteen years old.

Chapter 72 Overcoming Two Tribulations in Succession, Transforming into a Dragon and Undergoing Five Transformations

"It's been a month already, it should be out soon."

Outside, the old man who had escorted the Jiang family's divine body muttered to himself.

At this moment, Jiang Taixu sat cross-legged in the void, with a bronze furnace floating in front of him, emitting a brilliant light. Several divine birds flew around the bronze furnace, and flames raged all around him.

Jiang Taixu moved his hands continuously, unleashing boundless divine laws. One after another, traces of the Great Dao were imprinted in the void, emitting wondrous sounds that resonated with the imperial aura within the bronze furnace.

"boom"

Suddenly, Jiang Taixu clapped his hands, and the bronze lid shot into the sky. Three figures, like comets streaking across the sky, leaped out of the bronze furnace in an instant, like three gods, their bodies radiating endless divine light.

One of the figures instantly moved away from the spot, leaving several afterimages in the void in an instant before disappearing and appearing more than ten miles away.

"boom"

The sky was originally clear and sunny, but at this moment a vast ocean descended, formed from lightning, boundless and endless, instantly engulfing the figure.

"Heavenly Tribulation? Who is undergoing tribulation? How can it be so vast?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully at the remaining two people. When the divine light around them dissipated, the identities of the two figures were revealed: Jiang Family Divine Body and Jiang Yifei.

"It's that kid? What good luck, looks like he's made quite a haul." The old man was a little jealous. The opportunity for their Jiang family was going to be given to such an outsider, which made him very unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it.

However, after only a brief pause, the Jiang family's divine body and Jiang Yifei seemed to sense something and instantly disappeared, each finding an open space.

"boom"

Two more heavenly tribulations descended from the sky, lightning flashing across the heavens and engulfing the void, with thunderous sounds resounding throughout the firmament.

However, these two tribulations were much smaller than Zhou Qing's. Their cultivation levels were incomparable to Zhou Qing's. Jiang Family Divine Body's tribulation was a tribulation to break through to the second level of the Fourth Extreme Heaven, while Jiang Yifei's tribulation was a tribulation to break through to the fourth level of the Fourth Extreme Heaven. Compared to Zhou Qing's tribulation, these two tribulations were like children, and the difference was very obvious.

Countless powerful members of the Jiang family were alarmed. They watched the three heavenly tribulations with trepidation. Most of them had never experienced a heavenly tribulation before, so they were naturally shocked to see it.

At this moment, Zhou Qing was bathed in lightning. One after another, thick bolts of lightning struck his body, causing his skin to radiate a dazzling light, surrounded by lightning.

Seemingly sensing that the heavenly tribulation was somewhat weak, Zhou Qing opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing in wave after wave of lightning into his body, a sight that horrified onlookers.

This was a heavenly tribulation, a tribulation that countless people feared, yet he absorbed it into his body without any harm, leaving many Jiang family disciples dumbfounded.

"This is just too outrageous."

Jiang Yichen looked at the apocalyptic scene on his island and felt extremely uneasy. However, Zhou Qing did not take the tribulation lightning seriously at all, which really frightened him.

This was just a tribulation to break through a minor realm, posing no threat to Zhou Qing at all. He was bathed in endless lightning, feeling as relaxed as if he were taking a bath.

Two hours later, the tribulation of the Jiang family's divine body...

He was the first to be defeated. Even the tribulation of lightning, a calamity brought down by heaven and earth, could not break his iron armor, thus preventing Zhou Qing from ever knowing his true form.

Another hour passed, and Jiang Yifei's tribulation ended, and the world around him returned to its clear state.

However, just when the Jiang family thought that only Zhou Qing's tribulation had not yet been overcome...

"boom"

An endless sea of ​​lightning descended upon Jiang Yifei once again, and this time it was even more terrifying, because it was the tribulation lightning for breaking through to the Dragon Transformation Realm.

"What's going on? Why has it started again?"

"My God, Yifei actually survived two tribulations of lightning! He's such a prodigy, it's astonishing!"

The Jiang family's experts were extremely surprised. They never expected that Jiang Yifei could do such an amazing thing. They felt that they should have known better than to have missed Jiang Yifei's amazing talent sooner.

At the age of seventeen or eighteen, he broke through to the Dragon Transformation Realm, which is very rare in this era. Logically speaking, in this era, it is only around the age of twenty that the younger generation gradually breaks through to the Dragon Transformation Realm. This is the common understanding of the people of the Eastern Wilderness.

Originally, Jiang Yifei was at the third level of the fourth realm. If he had cultivated step by step, he would have needed to be around twenty years old to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm. However, after obtaining some of the Great Emperor's insights, he immediately broke through one after another, saving two or three years of time.

This is only the change that is currently directly manifested in cultivation. With this Emperor's enlightenment, from now until the ninth level of Sainthood, except for the hurdle of severing the Dao, almost all breakthroughs in realms will be much easier, and the speed of cultivation will exceed the imagination of ordinary people.

This is the opportunity that everyone dreams of. If one can obtain the complete enlightenment of the Great Emperor, this opportunity is no less than obtaining an immortal elixir, and in some ways even surpasses it.

At this moment, although Zhou Qing was still undergoing his tribulation, his attention was also focused on Jiang Yifei.

When receiving the Emperor's insights in the Divine Furnace of Li Huo, one can easily absorb them completely before reaching one's own level. However, it becomes more difficult to gain insights beyond one's own level, requiring personal comprehension. Furthermore, the more advanced the insights are compared to one's own level, the harder they are to remember.

With his physique and comprehension, Zhou Qing had a significant advantage in the evolution of memory, a crucial aspect of the Great Dao. Up until he reached the Immortal Third Realm, he could engrave all the changes of that figure in his mind. It wasn't until he became a Saint that his memory began to be incomplete, but he could still retain the vast majority of it in his heart.

However, due to his lower cultivation level, the Jiang family's divine body could fully remember the insights gained at the Dragon Transformation level thanks to his exceptional comprehension. But after reaching the Immortal Platform, these insights began to be lost, and by the time he reached the Saint Realm, he could only remember a tiny bit of them.

However, Jiang Yifei's performance greatly shocked Zhou Qing, because even up to the ninth level of the Saint Realm, Jiang Yifei did not seem to feel any difficulty. Instead, he calmly sat cross-legged in a corner of the bronze furnace, reflecting all his insights into his heart.

It was as if this evolution of the Great Dao suited him perfectly, to the point that he managed to do it without missing a single detail.

Even though Zhou Qing has now received the insights of Emperor Hengyu, he will still need to contemplate his own Dao when he breaks through to a higher realm. This kind of Emperor's insight is merely equivalent to advancing his understanding in advance.

He obtained an answer, but some of the methods used to find it were not suitable for Zhou Qing, so he needed to find the answer again using his own methods.

However, Jiang Yifei was different. His physical body and bloodline were perfectly compatible with this problem-solving method. Most of the time, he could break through realms without making any changes, or he could break through with just a slight change.

In other words, Jiang Yifei has no bottlenecks at this moment except for the Dao of Severing. As long as he chooses to fully accept this enlightenment and take the Great Dao in this enlightenment as his future Great Dao, he can break through one after another smoothly, which is terrifying.

At this moment, Zhou Qing also passed through this tribulation of lightning. The lightning gradually dissipated, and the world returned to clarity.

"boom"

The boundless and endless heavenly tribulation descended once more, engulfing Zhou Qing again and turning the world into a dazzling white expanse.

"My God, he also survived two tribulations of lightning in a row, he's truly monstrous!"

"Is this the Zhou Qing that's been rumored to be? His cultivation has progressed way too fast."

"Moreover, judging from the intensity of his tribulation lightning, it far exceeds his own realm, indicating that his foundation is also very solid and that his cultivation level is not something he forced to reach."

The Jiang family's experts were all surprised, while the younger generation of the Jiang family were so astonished that they didn't know what to say. Both Zhou Qing and Jiang Yifei made them feel a sense of powerlessness that they could not catch up.

Even the youngest of the divine bodies only appeared to have a lower cultivation level compared to the other two because of his young age. In reality, at that age, none of them would have been a match for this divine body.

Zhou Qing was surrounded by lightning, every pore of his body was emitting electric sparks, and endless lightning was inhaled into his body with a single breath.

He was not only tempering his physical body, but the lightning he absorbed was also tempering his divine sense and the Gate of Chaos within his body.

At this moment, he was in the Jiang family, undergoing his tribulation in full view of everyone. He did not want his divine consciousness and the Gate of Chaos to be revealed.

It's best to keep things secret as long as possible, even though these things will be exposed sooner or later.

Because the Zhou family is not without its enemies. In the 100,000-year struggle in the Northern Region, some people will benefit while others will suffer. The Zhou family has many grudges with certain holy lands and major sects, and it is possible that someone might take advantage of their strength to bully Zhou Qing.

Although he does possess some family trump cards, including some powerful forbidden artifacts, these can only be used against powerful beings. If Zhou Qing's current state makes some people wary and cause them to weigh the pros and cons before taking action, then...

Once his Gate of Chaos is exposed, it's hard to say how much madness it will cause. Perhaps some old Holy Lords who were thought to be dead will transform into Dao-Slaying Kings and jump out again, which would be truly dangerous.

Although there seem to be very few openly powerful figures in the Big Dipper at the moment, there are definitely quite a few hidden ones.

Putting aside other things, there are still half-saints in the Ruthless lineage, and an old barbarian king of the Southern Ridge tribe is still alive. However, none of the barbarians know that the old holy lord of the Wind tribe is said to have passed away two thousand years ago, but in fact he has severed his Dao and is still alive in the world.

These are just some of the Dao-Slaying Kings that Zhou Qing clearly knows have secretly survived. In the endless no-man's land of the Eastern Wilderness, there is no accurate number of how many Saint Lords and Emperors have not truly died but have successfully severed their Dao.

Half a day later, Jiang Yifei's tribulation dissipated again. This time, it did not trigger a new tribulation and ended normally.

Zhou Qing could understand his approach. After all, no powerful person aspiring to the path of the Emperor could completely accept someone else's Dao, no matter how compatible it was. Perhaps it would feel good now after fully accepting it, but it would be too late to regret it when facing the real challenge of proving one's Dao.

Another hour passed, and Zhou Qing's tribulation of lightning dissipated. At this moment, his whole body was shimmering with precious light, and his spine emitted dragon roars, which were very loud.

He has now successfully broken through to the fifth stage of the Dragon Transformation!

happy New Year to all!

Chapter 73 Practice

After successfully completing his tribulation, Zhou Qing immediately returned to the God King Island. The other two had already completed their tribulations some time earlier and had returned to the island ahead of time.

When Zhou Qing returned to the island, Jiang Yifei, dressed in white, smiled gently at him. His grandfather was a top expert of the God King lineage, so he naturally had no objections to Zhou Qing.

“The three of you have all received considerable opportunities this time, but you cannot neglect your own cultivation because of this. You must comprehend your own path. If you are too influenced by the Great Dao of Eternal Universe, it will not be so easy for you to break free from it in the future.”

God King Jiang Taixu stood before the three, seemingly one with heaven and earth. His white robes fluttered, untouched by dust, and his words seemed to be the ultimate truths of heaven and earth, resounding loudly and directly in the ears of the three.

"We are aware of this."

Zhou Qing and the other two replied, bowing in unison. Having received such an opportunity and bearing the consequences of their actions, this bow was a heartfelt expression of their gratitude.

Zhou Qing was especially respectful. The Divine King was a virtuous and saintly being, with the well-being of all living beings in his heart. His thoughts and concerns were not limited to the Jiang family. Therefore, he was willing to share this opportunity with Zhou Qing, which was entirely worthy of Zhou Qing's respect.

As for neglecting his own cultivation, Zhou Qing would never do such a thing. Although he had survived two tribulations, it was not entirely due to the insights of Emperor Hengyu. The main reason for his breakthrough was his own accumulation of knowledge.

In the previous month, Zhou Qing consulted the God King on many cultivation issues. The Dao diagram evolved by the God King contained profound Dao principles and pointed directly to the core of cultivation. It was a Dao diagram woven from the rules and order of heaven and earth, which was extremely mysterious.

After a month of cultivation, he not only gained a very profound understanding of the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, enabling him to ride dragons and roam the void, but his own accumulation had also reached the limit of the third transformation of the Dragon Transformation Realm, and he was only a little bit away from breaking through to the fourth transformation of the Dragon Transformation Realm.
