Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 294 alarmed

Lingyuan Marshland is a vast expanse of water and swamps, with only a few slightly solid patches of land occasionally appearing, all of which are covered by weeds and are completely devoid of human habitation.

Zhou Yang rode his sword at breakneck speed, only slowing down after venturing deep into the boundless marshland for tens of thousands of miles.

His powerful spiritual sense constantly scanned his surroundings, searching for a suitable place to undergo tribulation while also carefully guarding against potential dangers.

Poisonous insects and poisonous obstacles are everywhere in the Spirit Source Swamp. If one is not careful, even a Nascent Soul cultivator can suffer a great loss.

With Zhou Yang's tribulation imminent, he naturally needs to be extra cautious.

During the seven years he lived in the Jinyang Sect, he constantly practiced the Three Souls Nine Refinements, and his soul realm progressed extremely rapidly.

Although his actual cultivation level is only at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, his soul realm has already reached a level comparable to the mid-stage of the Void Realm, so the range covered by his spiritual sense is extremely large.

Before long, he discovered a suitable place to undergo the tribulation.

It was a solid landmass, more than tens of miles long and wide. The entire landmass was extremely flat and open, so he could detect any unexpected dangers in time. Moreover, the surrounding continuous waters formed a mysterious cloud and mist barrier. With a little modification, it could form a large cloud and mist barrier array, which should be of unknown help in passing the heavenly tribulation.

This world exaggerates the terror of the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulations and the Nine-Nine Tribulations, making Zhou Yang dare not let his guard down.

He quickly landed on the solid grass, and after a brief reconnaissance, immediately began to set up.

He took out strange crystals that shimmered with various colors of spiritual light from his storage bracelet, and then quickly placed them in different locations on the grassland according to a special formation. Even the waterholes around the grassland were within the scope of the placement.

Previously, in the Devouring Universe, both the silver token space inheritance that Zhou Yang obtained and the Duan Donghe inheritance that Luo Feng obtained contained a lot of information about formations.

Although the rules of the two worlds are different, with a little borrowing, Zhou Yang was able to easily modify many formations suitable for this world.

This Cloud and Mist Barrier Formation is one of the defensive formations he devised. As long as there are enough powerful array materials and energy supply, this Cloud and Mist Barrier Formation can even withstand the combined attack of Void Realm experts!

Unfortunately, Zhou Yang is currently short of resources and can only use some of the most common attribute crystals to set up an array. He estimates that he would be lucky if he could barely withstand a single attack from a Void Realm expert.

However, I think it shouldn't be a problem to help him deal with one or two heavenly tribulations.

Soon, the array bases were set up one after another, waiting only for Zhou Yang to inject a wisp of true essence to activate the array's power.

"The defensive function of the great formation will not be activated for the time being. It will be put into use when the fifth and sixth heavenly lightning strikes arrive."

Zhou Yang made up his mind that the initial heavenly lightning attack would not be too powerful, and it was not worth using a large formation to defend against it.

It would be perfect to use the physical body to withstand the attack first, and use the mysterious power contained in the heavenly lightning to temper the body.

He remembered that when he last underwent the Heavenly Tribulation of the Forty-Nine Heavens, the mysterious power contained in the heavenly lightning could even cause a significant transformation in his genetic level.

The power of the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation is far greater than that of the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and the mysterious energy it contains is likely to be even stronger. It remains to be seen whether this will allow for a greater leap in his genetic level.

"Although it's called a tribulation of lightning, why do I vaguely sense a trace of the laws of life within it?"

Zhou Yang seemed to have a vague guess in his mind, but this guess needed more attempts to confirm.

He stopped thinking about it and sat cross-legged in the middle of the grass, waiting patiently.

Time flies, and more than two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the once bright blue sky above Lingyuan Marsh suddenly became stormy with wind and clouds.

Centered on Zhou Yang's location, a large number of dark red tribulation clouds began to gather wildly in the sky over a range of thousands of miles above. The entire sky seemed to drop a layer downwards in an instant, becoming oppressive and heavy!

Zhou Yang, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and looked up.

"It's about to begin? I didn't expect the power of this Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation to be so terrifying. These tribulation clouds actually cover an area of ​​thousands of miles. Hopes may be thwarted by unexpected complications."

Zhou Yang stood up, focusing all his attention on the heavenly tribulation.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and waves began to surge in the surrounding expanse of water.

And in that dark red sky, countless electric snakes danced.

suddenly--

"call out!"

As if a person were breathing, the sound rang out in the sky, and the gale instantly disappeared. The churning water around them also calmed down rapidly. In just a moment, the entire area around the tribulation site became unusually quiet.

Moreover, all the lightning had disappeared, because in the blink of an eye, all the lightning had been completely absorbed into the storm clouds!

At this moment, the original dark red tribulation clouds deepened in color, turning into an almost purplish-black color. A suffocatingly terrifying power was constantly brewing in the purplish-black tribulation clouds, and even a slight sense of it made people's hearts tremble!

"The tribulation clouds are purplish-black, and the speed at which they absorb and transform the spiritual energy of heaven and earth seems quite powerful. My Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation is indeed formidable."

Zhou Yang made a judgment in an instant.

He read through many "miscellaneous books" in the Jinyang Sect, many of which described the scenes of the Jinyang Sect's predecessors undergoing tribulations. After just a slight comparison, he realized that the power of his own tribulation was probably far greater than that of the Jinyang Sect's ancestors.

Despite this, he felt no fear whatsoever.

His soul realm is now comparable to that of a cultivator in the mid-stage of the Void Realm. His physical body, due to his cultivation of the Stellar Transformation technique, is constantly tempered by the power of the stars in this world, making it far superior to that of an ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

In addition, given his experience and secret techniques in devouring worlds, if even he couldn't survive the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, then the power of this tribulation must be terrifying.

"Come on, let me experience just how powerful the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, which terrifies countless cultivators, truly is!"

Zhou Yang gazed at the gathering tribulation clouds in the sky, a look of eager anticipation on his face.

While Zhou Yang was fully focused on preparing for the impending tribulation, at the bottom of a lake nearly a thousand miles away from where Zhou Yang was undergoing his tribulation, a pale-faced youth wrapped in a black robe and exuding a sinister and evil aura suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hmm? The fluctuations of heavenly tribulation... Is someone undergoing tribulation around my hiding place?"
