This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

You have successfully passed the Tribulation of Core Formation.

Please make thorough preparations to face the upcoming Core Formation Tribulation (physical version)

When Jiang Liu was kicked out of the tribulation space and returned to the training room, he was still in a daze.

Is that all?

Is this what they call transcending tribulation?

In the world of cultivation, what is known as the tribulation of cultivation, a lightning tribulation with a nine-out-of-ten chance of death, was passed by so easily. The nine lightning strikes only reduced his health by 9%, and he didn't even have to use any defensive artifacts or skills.

Isn't this way too easy?

"Make thorough preparations to overcome the physical tribulation? Is there even a need for preparation?"

Upon hearing the system notification, Jiang Liu couldn't help but chuckle, immediately switching out of the Immortal Cultivation Era and returning to his room.

How long have I been offline?

Looking around my room, a feeling of familiarity mixed with strangeness welled up inside me.

But that's normal. After all, it's about cultivating immortality. Time flies in the mountains. Which cultivator doesn't spend several or even decades in seclusion? He's only been gone a short time, so it's nothing.

Jiang Liu picked up his phone from his desk, opened Gaode Maps to check the surrounding area, and finally located it on a deserted mountain outside the city.

"More than two hundred miles... let's go there to undergo the tribulation."

He muttered to himself, opened the window, jumped out, and flew rapidly towards the desolate mountains outside the city.

Two hundred li, that is, the distance from the sect's headquarters to the Ghost-Faced Demon Palace, can be covered in the blink of an eye.

Arriving at the desolate mountain outside the city, Jiang Liu once again entered the Immortal Cultivation Era. After clicking on the [Synchronize] option in the character panel, he transferred all the items he had just bought during his tribulation to reality.

"Unleash your power!"

He switched back to the Immortal Cultivation Era, let out a low shout, and released the aura of a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator. The invisible waves spread outwards, blowing dust all over the mountains and fields, and even the ground trembled slightly.

He possesses eighteen mysterious artifacts; emerge!

Thank you for your support, let's go!

Golden dragon protects you, emerge!

True Phoenix protects me, go forth!

Lightning Repellent Pill, Tribulation Enhancement Pill, Tribulation Protection Pill, One-Time Resurrection Pill, out!

Jiang Liu stood alone in the desolate mountains, his eighteen mysterious artifacts shining brightly, surrounded by an aura of gratitude. Within ten meters, a golden dragon and a true phoenix were intertwining and swimming.

After unleashing his full power, he looked down at the four pills in his palm and swallowed them all without hesitation.

Everything is perfectly prepared!

Begin undergoing the physical tribulation!

After a light tap on the [Cultivation Tribulation (Physical Body)] in the character panel of the Immortal Cultivation Era, a thundercloud instantly condenses in the sky within a ten-mile radius. The thundercloud is dark and shiny, giving people a sense of oppressive power, like dark clouds pressing down on a city and threatening to destroy it.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared within the thunderclouds, with several bolts of lightning, resembling long dragons, roaming and howling, shaking the surrounding area for hundreds of miles and startling birds and beasts.

"Come on, if this can hurt my body, then I'll have no right to call myself the number one in the fourth district!"

Jiang Liu sat cross-legged, surrounded by golden dragons and phoenixes, and a pure white barrier appeared out of thin air.

next second.

Thunder roared high in the sky, and a bolt of white lightning ripped through the heavens, bringing down a terrifying lightning bolt as thick as a water bucket.

boom!

hum!

The first lightning bolt struck the protective barrier that Mother Lightning had created herself. Jiang Liu's body trembled slightly. Although he was not injured, his eardrums felt as if they were about to be shattered.

That shook me to death!

The second one, the third one!

The electric current protection has disappeared!

The fourth lightning bolt suddenly descended, striking Jiang Liu directly!

In an instant, Jiang Liu felt as if he had been electrocuted. His whole body trembled violently, and he instinctively sprang up, reaching a height of thirty or forty meters!

Ouch... Huh?

It doesn't hurt much, just a little itchy...

Well, it feels pretty much the same as getting static electricity.

If I get a static shock, will it take away 1% of my health?

It seems unlikely, right?

I'm relieved. It's just a minor breakthrough in the Core Formation Tribulation, nothing serious.

It leaped thirty or forty meters high, and before Jiang Liu could fall back down, the fifth lightning tribulation followed.

The sixth, the seventh, the eighth...

Just like undergoing tribulation in a game, Jiang Liu felt waves of electricity coursing through his body. Each lightning bolt made him feel numb and tingly all over. When the ninth lightning bolt descended, he felt as if he had been electrocuted.

Similarly, the entire tribulation process took only a little over a minute.

When the lightning tribulation disappeared and the thunderclouds dispersed, Jiang Liu lay flat on the ground with a look of ecstasy on his face.

I don't know how much damage it does, but it's definitely satisfying to let him cleave it.

This lightning tribulation feels even better than a massage parlor!

Chapter 195 Golden Core Stage, Breakthrough Benefits, Five Elements Spiritual Body!

He felt refreshed after being struck by lightning.

After returning to the Immortal Cultivation Era, Jiang Liu first opened the character panel to take a look.

[Spirit Stones Consumed: 10000/10000]

[Aura Vortex: 100/100%]

[Condensation of the embryonic core: 100/100%]

[The Tribulation of Core Formation: Completed]

[Completed the Core Formation Tribulation (Real-World True Form)]

【Melting Elixir Immortal Beauty: Unadded】

Everything is ready, except for the east wind!

All that's missing now is the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir!

"What else do I need to do after breaking through to the Golden Core stage?"

Jiang Liu muttered to himself, already contemplating what to do after breaking through to the Golden Core stage.

By the way, have you extracted enough spiritual roots for the Five Elements Spiritual Body?

He suddenly remembered that after breaking through to the Golden Core stage, his Five Elements Profound Body would also need to be upgraded to the Five Elements Spiritual Body, which required a huge number of Five Elements Spiritual Roots. He didn't know if he had drawn them all.

He hurriedly opened his backpack and glanced at the spiritual roots at the bottom.

741 top-grade metal spirit roots, 578 top-grade wood spirit roots, 881 top-grade water spirit roots, 643 top-grade fire spirit roots, and 442 top-grade earth spirit roots.

Good heavens, let alone the Five Elements Spiritual Body, even the more advanced Five Elements Dao Body is almost enough for advancement.

When did I extract so many spiritual roots from the permanent pool?

Jiang Liu looked at the large number of spiritual roots and couldn't help but wonder, but then he realized what was going on.

Most of these five elemental spiritual roots were not drawn from the permanent pool!

It was obtained by chance from the limited-time pool!

Holy crap, this is seriously crooked!

Although he had enough spiritual roots to advance to the Five Elements Spiritual Body, Jiang Liu still felt very dissatisfied.

Why does drawing five elemental roots from a limited-time pool make him seem like a sucker?

"We have enough of the five elemental spiritual roots, so now we just need to wait for the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir to be refined..."

Jiang Liu closed his backpack, then opened the "Exciting Events" section, staring at the Samadhi True Fire Furnace that appeared on the main interface with anticipation in his eyes.

Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, please, please come out quickly!

He stared at the stove for over an hour until he got bored and returned to the main interface.

It will take several more days to break through to the Golden Core stage. What should I do in the next few days?

I'm itching to do something, I don't want to do anything!

Jiang Liu was restless. He spent some time drawing cards, refining pills, and playing the Tower of Babel before gradually calming down.

Nothing much to do, perfect timing, let's go farm all the loot from the Demon Palace.

He pondered silently, then casually opened the sect channel.

[Jiang Liu: Three of us in a group, reporting to the Ghost-Faced Demon Palace! I'll lead the brothers to level up!]

[Jiang Liu: This time, I absolutely won't stand you up!]

[Jiang Liu: Elder Yi, get in position quickly! This time we're going to grind for seven days straight!]

[Yi Luoluo: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ]

In the Great World, a team can consist of up to 5 people. With Yi Luoluo as a fixed member, and three more sect members, they can farm the Ghost Face Demon Palace thousands of times in seven days.

Although he no longer gains cultivation points from farming the Ghost Face Demon Palace, he can still stack the damage-increasing effect of the Battle Saint Body within the Ghost Face Demon Hall. He can enjoy farming there one last time before breaking through to the Golden Core stage, and also help his sect members improve their cultivation levels.

It's unclear how much cultivation points the sect members can gain in seven days, but it feels like it would be enough for Yi Luoluo to reach the late Foundation Establishment stage.

Let me make one last big profit from the Demon Palace of the Ghost Face!

Ten minutes later.

Outside the Demon Palace of the Ghost Face.
