My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

Tribulation of Thunder?

Upon hearing Xue Wuque's words, Jia Meiqian was shocked. It was actually the Pill Lightning Tribulation?

The terrifying thunderclouds in the distance continued to spread, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles.

Such terrifying lightning is hardly worthy of being called tribulation lightning; its scale is practically divine retribution.

If it is truly a tribulation of pills and lightning, I wonder what kind of heaven-defying pills are being refined beneath the lightning.

Thinking about these things,

Jia Meiqian was startled. Could it be that Boss Gu was refining pills under the thunderclouds?

It really is Boss Gu; he's probably going to be caught up in the Pill Lightning Tribulation.

How can one protect oneself in such a thunderous attack?

Phoenix.

Countless creatures looked up at the sky as the heavenly thunderclouds, like a curse, spread rapidly and soon reached the skies above Phoenix City.

Rumble...

Thunderclouds rolled across the sky.

The air was filled with electrical charges, and the hair on many people's bodies was drawn by the power of lightning, turning into afro-like hairstyles.

As for fox spirits and the like, their tails involuntarily stood up, and a tingling, numbing sensation of lightning coursed through their bodies, causing these half-demons to blush, their faces flushed as if in pain.

"How could such terrifying thunderclouds appear?"

A human cultivator rubbed his arm, feeling a stinging pain like needles pricking his skin as the lightning crackled. He exclaimed in horror.

"What terrifying power of heavenly lightning."

"This has already surpassed the scale of the Golden Core Tribulation."

"For such a thing to happen on the occasion of Phoenix Palace's centennial celebration, this celebration is likely to be quite a show..."

"Huh!"

"What is this?"

Within Phoenix City, all living beings were abuzz with discussion.

But soon, everyone discovered that a dark yellow gas was constantly overflowing from the depths of the earth, flowing along the ground, gathering and surging like a great river, rolling towards the thunderclouds below.

"Look!"

"The alchemy furnace beneath the lightning tribulation."

The primordial energy of the earth gathered beneath the dark, oppressive lightning, eventually giving rise to the phantom of a colossal, primordial cauldron reaching to the heavens.

Not far from the center of the tribulation lightning, the three palace masters of Phoenix Palace, all at the Purple Mansion Realm, stood together, looking at the giant cauldron phantom in the distance. Elder Yuzhuo, dressed in purple, had a wisp of electricity appear at his fingertips.

"The power of this tribulation lightning far exceeds the limits of a Golden Core cultivator."

"Even we cultivators of the Purple Mansion realm must not be careless when facing such terrifying tribulation lightning."

"Can Gu Xiaoyou's Earth-Thickening Array withstand this?"

Elder Qingluan's expression was solemn, and he remained silent.

Feng Qiwu couldn't help but recall that three years ago, on the day Gu Qing deciphered the Heart of the Dimension potion, he came to her and said he wanted to create his own liquid pill method.

We need to push the effects of the Heart of the Plane potion to their peak.

Now it seems that Gu Xiaoyou has indeed succeeded.

only……

Any elixir that defies the heavens will attract a tribulation of elixir lightning.

Normally, only six-patterned spirit pills would attract a pill lightning tribulation. But what Gu Qing refined was truly heaven-defying.

In the records of the Phoenix Clan, the four most common types of pills that easily attract the Tribulation of Pill Lightning are those that increase lifespan, break through bottlenecks, bring the dead back to life, and improve innate aptitude.

However, the tribulations of pills attracted by these four types of pills were not as severe as the lightning attracted by Gu Qing.

"The Great Earth Formation of the Thickest Earth".

"This formation can gather the primordial energy of the earth within a hundred miles. In addition, I used a secret method to intercept a stream of earth energy from the roots of the Phoenix Tree and inject it into Gu Qing's Mountain and River Creation Furnace. Theoretically speaking, the energy that Gu Qing currently possesses is no less than that of a cultivator in the Purple Mansion Realm."

"If this power is fully unleashed, overcoming the tribulation shouldn't be a problem."

"I just don't know if we can save the liquid pill inside the alchemy furnace."

Feng Qiwu stared at the giant Xuanhuang furnace in the distance. She was uncertain about herself. Looking at Gu Qing below the thunderclouds, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If I had known, what harm would it have done to wait another hundred years!

If Gu Qing were to perish in the Heavenly Tribulation, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous loss.

It's uncertain when we'll find the next qualified alchemist.

"Palace Master."

"Look, what is Gu Qing doing?"

"Why is the thunder in the sky intensifying...?"

Elder Yuzhuo, dressed in purple, suddenly pointed to a figure not far away.

"he--"

"That's insane. No wonder they're mercenaries from the Immortal Kingdom. Even at a time like this, they still dare to push their limits."

In the center of the illusory Xuanhuang Cauldron, the boundless Xuanhuang earth energy, condensed by the Earth Extreme Thick Earth Array, was compressed and condensed. Gu Qing's cultivation of gravity mysteries further enhanced this earth energy, bringing it to its fullest potential.

A jet-black vortex spun in the sky.

Even space itself was stretched by this vortex, creating ripples that spread in all directions.

"Buzz buzz buzz".

"Palace Master."

"It seems to be close to forming a pill; a fragrant aroma is emanating from it."

"Don't rush."

"The presence of the fragrance of the pill can only mean that Gu Qing's deduced pill formula and refining technique are correct."

"The real test is in heaven."

Looking in the direction Feng Qiwu was pointing, they saw that the tribulation lightning in the sky was disturbed by the fragrance of cinnabar.

Rumble...

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, its arc stretching for hundreds of miles.

The fragrance of cinnabar transformed into a guiding light, shooting straight into the sky. Thunderclouds gathered above Gu Qing's head, swirling and flashing with lightning, converging into an electric arc storm in the sky.

"That's not the Pill Lightning Tribulation, that's the Pill Lightning Sea..."

"This kind of tribulation lightning has never occurred in cultivation before; it's unheard of!"

"This trip was worthwhile. I was fortunate enough to witness such a celestial phenomenon. Cultivators should indeed defy the heavens and seek their own freedom..."

"If that pill succeeds, it will surely become a legend in the cultivation world of this plane."

Within Phoenix City, whether they were local cultivators, mercenaries from the Immortal Kingdom, or scions of noble families from the Immortal Kingdom, all were looking towards the sea of ​​thunder in the sky a hundred miles away.

Countless cultivators developed a strong curiosity about that mysterious alchemist.

If this elixir is successfully made, it will surely become a legend.

"Gurgle..."

Inside the Fairy Tower, Jia Meiqian looked at the sea of ​​thunder in the sky and couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Fellow Daoist Xue, you're saying the alchemist is Elder Gu?"

"good."

"It seems that Brother Gu's pill refining is successful. It's hard to say how far it will go next."

"They're here."

"They've all fallen one after another."

Under the watchful eyes of countless cultivators, a purple lightning pillar with a diameter of ten miles descended from the swirling sea of ​​lightning in the sky through its eye.

Rumble...

"The Great Earth Formation, hold it for me!"

Located directly beneath the thunder, Gu Qing manipulated the Mountain and River Creation Furnace with both hands, looked up at the sky, and at the same time, three fruit shadow clones controlled the Xuanhuang Giant Cauldron condensed by the great formation.

Purple lightning hung in the sky like a waterfall. The Xuanhuang Giant Cauldron Thunder, with its rotating black vortex, pulled the purple lightning, turning it into countless leaping purple plasmas that accumulated inside the cauldron.

"Tempering Liquid, Opening the Heavenly Spirit."

Under the control of the shadow clone, the purple plasma was pulled and ground in the dark vortex, gradually turning into drops of purple spiritual liquid that fell from the sky and landed in the Mountain and River Creation Cauldron.

Followed by.

Gu Qing continued to cast a series of pill incantations and hand seals.

Inside the Creation Cauldron of Mountains and Rivers, the liquid elixir transformed into a swimming dragon, wandering within the Purple Thunder Spirit Liquid.

"BOOM!!"

The first bolt of Purple Extreme Heavenly Lightning was torn apart by the pitch-black vortex, turning into purple plasma that filled the Xuanhuang Giant Cauldron to three-tenths full.

The tribulation lightning seemed to have been provoked by Gu Qing, and then the second bolt of heavenly lightning instantly more than doubled in size.

"Palace Master, it seems Gu Qing can't hold on any longer..."
