I have the best bloodline

"hiss"

The orange-red lightning beam fell, and due to the heavenly lightning and the water of Ruojian Lake, it immediately caused a lightning paralysis effect the moment it touched Su Yan. The orange-red lightning spread to the various creatures in the forest, instantly evaporating the water spirits that were resisting the fire tornado.

Enveloped in the pillar of lightning, Su Yan was now trembling all over due to numbness. The clothes on his body gradually turned to ashes and disappeared, and the secret technique of immortality was also broken.

The moment the myriad forms of the forest disappeared, the fiery tornado began to shrink rapidly, merging with the orange-red pillar of lightning, flashing a white light that illuminated the sky.

"Boom!"

The scorching wind, carrying the embers, transformed into blades that swept through the forest, reducing the surrounding area of ​​Ruojian Lake Forest for three miles to black ash, which then spread outwards.

"Huh?! Something's not right! Something's not right here!"

The cultivators who had been watching the spectacle from atop the rock pillars immediately sensed something amiss when they witnessed the massive explosion caused by the fusion of heavenly lightning and earthly fire. They quickly turned to the shopkeeper at the betting station and shouted:

"You old thief! You actually hid crucial information! What human cultivator could cause such a deafening earthquake?"

When a normal water-element cultivator undergoes tribulation, the surrounding earth fire creates a limiting and weakening effect to assist the heavenly lightning. It is not like Su Yan's tribulation, where the lightning and fire gather and merge at the end of the first lightning tribulation to create a deafening roar.

Such an unusual phenomenon indicates that this cultivator's bloodline or physique is extremely powerful, requiring the Heavenly Tribulation to personally deliver the finishing blow to inflict effective damage.

"How would I know? I just set up a betting shop here because I saw someone undergoing tribulation. At the gambling table, either you'll pull down my pants or I'll touch your crotches. Don't even think about getting a single penny back."

The stall owner chuckled, then, too lazy to pay attention to the cultivators clamoring for refunds, he changed the odds on his stall and shouted, "Second round! Second round! Those who have undergone tribulation, show off your new skills! Let's open another round. Those who have lost everything, come and buy some more to recover your losses and head back to the city!"

Not only were the spectators screaming in agony, but even the cultivators far away in Xia Yu City suffered sudden cardiac arrest when they saw the earth-shattering phenomenon recorded by the image crystal.

Clearly, they were all betting on the first or second lightning strike, and some even bet that Su Yan would die from the second lightning strike because of his small size.

They didn't know whether Su Yan was alive or dead, but they were already feeling like they wanted to die.

........................

"hiss"

Su Yan, who was lying at the bottom of Ruojian Lake, swallowed the pill in his mouth. The burns and charred skin on his body healed rapidly. Su Yan, in his youthful form, stood up from the bottom of the lake and looked around. A strange expression gradually appeared on his face as he said:

"The water in Ruojian Lake has dried up!"

The deafening roar of the thunder and fire did not primarily damage Su Yan; rather, it reduced the water level in Ruojian Lake to less than 10%, and caused all the moisture and yin energy gathered in the surrounding forest to disappear.

If Su Yan wants to quickly restore his spiritual power, he can only rely on items such as pills and formations.

However, the heavenly tribulation will give Su Yan time to prepare; the second lightning tribulation will arrive shortly after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

"Is this one-tenth of the Ruojian Lake water also left by Lord Heavenly Tribulation to get back at me?"

After surviving the tribulation of thunder and fire, the second tribulation is a heavenly tribulation of metal and fire attributes. Although it is said to be metal and fire, heavenly tribulations always contain the power of thunder. Su Yan suspected that when the second thunder tribulation came down, he might be paralyzed and unable to move.

"Hiss, my whole body is numb."

Thinking of this, Su Yan slowly raised his hand and released his spiritual sense to use a new ability.

Having survived the tribulation of thunder and fire, Su Yan is now able to use his spiritual sense to control the unrefined spiritual energy within a 400-meter radius around him. As long as his internal mana can maintain the operation of his spiritual sense, theoretically, a Nascent Soul cultivator can continuously unleash spells to bombard the enemy.

Su Yan raised his hand and spread his spiritual sense, controlling the spiritual energy wandering around him. With a thought, the water at the bottom of Ruojian Lake began to move rapidly, all of it gathering in the lakeside area, leaving a dry patch of land.

"Congeal!"

Su Yan raised his hand and formed a seal. The remaining water from Ruojian Lake exhibited the property of gathering spiritual energy, and began to rapidly absorb the moisture from heaven and earth to strengthen itself.

Su Yan popped a handful of pills into his mouth, then looked up at the dark layer above the sky. The pure black dark layer, which had been filled with thunder and fire, was now turning orange-yellow again, and the power of golden fire was already gathering within, ready to launch a surprise attack.

"Boom!"

Golden lightning flashed in the lightless layer, and the lightning transformed into swords that slammed directly onto the earth. Along the edge of Ruojian Lake, towers flashing with lightning rose up, and streaks of golden lightning connected the towers to each other, enveloping Su Yan in an electrified area.

"That's going too far!"

Upon seeing this, Su Yan was immediately shocked. How could this heavenly tribulation be different from what Grand Tutor Jin had described?

The second tribulation of golden fire should have been that the raging flames surrounded him as before, and the yang-attribute golden lightning struck down on his head. But now, the golden lightning has transformed into a towering thunderbolt, forming a high-voltage area on the ground that restricts his movements.

Although Su Yan hadn't read many books, he knew that in an electrified area, one couldn't run around freely; one could only hop on one foot or shuffle along with both feet.

The purpose of the Lightning Tower is restriction. It not only restricts Su Yan's mobility, but also restricts his water-based abilities. Whether he runs or summons a trickle of water, he will be electrocuted.

The lightless layer gave Su Yan no time to be surprised. A box-sized, orange-yellow lightning bolt struck Su Yan's head directly, continuously burning him.

Orange-yellow lightning bolts struck the earth, enveloping Su Yan and scorching him. Strands of orange-yellow flames and golden lightning coursed through Su Yan's body, forcing his physique and golden core to undergo tempering and purification.

Su Yan's originally fair skin turned red and hot, emitting a white mist. The moisture in her body was rapidly evaporating and eventually turning into a blood-red mist.

The Metal-Fire Tribulation is a tribulation that counters Water-element cultivators, and should have been faced by Wood-element cultivators with strong vitality.

This calamity is unavoidable and inescapable; it's a matter of using one's own life to endure the heavenly tribulation, to see whether one's own life will perish first, or whether the heavenly tribulation will simply give up on its own.

Although Su Yan does not possess the power of the Wood element, the blood of the Nine-Tailed Fox flows in his veins, and his vitality is far superior to that of ordinary creatures and Yazi, which is why he attracted the Heavenly Tribulation of the Wood element cultivators.

"Puff."

Su Yan, his body charred black, fell to the ground, his dragon-scale-shaped golden core cracked and blackened by the smoke.

Despite being extremely depressed, Su Yan did not forget the key points of the Dragon Ball condensation method. He slightly flicked his finger to summon the water curtain on the edge of Ruojian Lake, allowing the water curtain to directly cover his body. He then used the Water Nourishment Technique and swallowed pills to replenish the water lost from his body.

Furthermore, with a thought, he separated a wisp of his spiritual consciousness and followed the opening of the blackened dragon scale-shaped golden pill, entering it and frantically absorbing the spiritual energy within a radius of four hundred meters, along with the power of the pill, to fully restore his body.

As for the third tribulation lightning, Su Yan wasn't actually too worried.

The three tribulations of the Nascent Soul stage test the cultivator's proficiency in spells, their physical strength, and the amount of mana they possess.

The first and second lightning tribulations that Su Yan underwent showed signs of increasing power, but not by too much, so Su Yan did not choose to weaken them but instead withstood them all.

The third tribulation trial was precisely what Su Yan was proud of.

At this moment, a verdant green color emerged on the lightless layer.

Su Yan remained lying at the bottom of Ruojian Lake, showing no signs of moving, focusing all his efforts on recovering from his injuries, completely ignoring the large number of emerald green tree roots that were gradually growing out of the cracked ground.

Beams of green light struck Su Yan, and his internal and external injuries, as well as the hidden injuries accumulated during past battles or cultivation, were all recovering at a visible speed. However, at the same time, his internal mana was being consumed at an extremely rapid pace.

The emerald green divine light granted Su Yan a new life at the cost of exhausting all of his spiritual power.

The charred and deformed golden core inside the body gradually shed its skin under the catalysis of the emerald green divine light, revealing the smooth and translucent dragon pearl inside after shedding its black charred shell. A four-tailed fox sat cross-legged inside the dragon pearl, placing its arms in front of its body to form a symbolic Dao seal.

now--

A crack appeared in the lightless layer, and clusters of flames, like falling snowflakes, drifted down from the sky and gathered at the bottom of Ruojian Lake. The brightness of the emerald light increased dramatically as the flames fell.

Because Su Yan gave up resisting and chose to withstand the power of the heavenly tribulation head-on, even if he takes elixirs and medicines, he can't keep up with the consumption of spiritual energy.

"Sacrificial knife".

The moment his mana was completely depleted, Su Yan took out the sacrificial knife from his storage ring, merged with it, and began to consume the spiritual energy of the hundreds of thousands of kilograms of spirit stones stored inside.

With the support of abundant spiritual power, the emerald green divine light directly helped Su Yan achieve physical sainthood. The heavenly fire power emanating from the lightless layer could not harm Su Yan at all, and even if his body was damaged, it would heal in the blink of an eye.

Because of her excessive vitality, flower buds even formed on Su Yan's long black hair. The life-giving power of the nine-tailed fox, hidden deep in her bloodline, was temporarily activated, forming a strange power that produced the fragrance of flowers.

………………

The raging flames of heaven dissipated, the emerald light extinguished, and the layer of darkness gradually shrank into black dots and disappeared.

If Su Yan's figure is not found at the bottom of Jianhu Lake, but instead a green humanoid figure with four tails resting on the ground to draw power from the earth, and an extremely powerful life force forms flames around it that rise and drift.

"This is."

My aunt, who had been keeping a close eye on Ruojian Lake, was astonished when she saw the emerald green humanoid figure revealed after the heavenly fire dissipated.

However, the emerald green humanoid vine armor did not last long after losing the emerald green divine light. In an instant, the green light faded and turned into black threads, which gradually shrank behind Su Yan and turned into hair. The flower buds that grew from the ends of the hair also withered and fell to the ground.

Su Yan also transformed back into a little fox, her four paws touching the ground, her tail tucked between her legs again to prevent her little bell from impolitely pointing at others.

"Phew, finally it's over. I understand now why there are so many Nightmare Suppression Phenomena in the cultivation world." Su Yan lay down at the bottom of Ruojian Lake, letting the water, which he had lost control of, scatter around him, slowly supporting him as he floated on the surface. He then complained:

"So it turns out that Master Jie likes to launch sneak attacks."

Perfectly passing the Heavenly Tribulation Trial is inherently a very difficult task, and missing any part of the Heavenly Tribulation can lead to unsuccessful progress in cultivation later on.

It's bad enough that it's difficult to overcome, but it also likes to resort to underhanded tricks. Su Yan has Grand Tutor Jin behind him who can help him out. He has already memorized the five elements combination heavenly tribulations for the Nascent Soul stage.

Otherwise, during the second Golden Fire Tribulation, if Su Yan dared to take a step or summon the Water Element Technique, he would fall to the ground due to complete paralysis, causing his body to form a closed circuit with the golden lightning hidden in the earth. The lightning would then gather and party in his heart, causing overheating and instantaneous death.

Fortunately, he survived the tribulation without serious injury and raised his cultivation level to the Nascent Soul stage.

A cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage doesn't have any fancy abilities. They can only control the spiritual energy within a 400-meter radius around their body and can use a body-seizing technique based on their Nascent Soul, thus gaining an extra life.

Of course, Su Yan, who possesses the Dragon Ball, doesn't need to consider things like possession. The purpose of the Dragon Ball is to allow dragons to retain their bloodline and cultivation, and to hatch from the Dragon Ball to live another life.

"Little fox!"

My aunt used a teleportation technique to appear, gradually emerging from the lake. She scooped up the little white fox that was drifting leisurely with the current and said:

"How are you feeling now? Do you need to take a pill to restore your spiritual power?"

"Ah, Auntie, I'm fine. It's just that the pill that Grand Tutor Jin gave me contains a slight toxin that can temporarily block my sense of touch and pain." Su Yan replied with a relaxed and carefree expression. "Right now, all I want to do is take a nap."

The Heavenly Tribulation Trial falls into the category of torture and torment, and cultivators in the cultivation world are naturally not stupid. Over the years, they have long since developed a set of targeted pills.

Su Yan is currently fine, but he may need to sleep for three to five days after taking those Tribulation-Crossing Pills to alleviate the fatigue caused by the extreme excitement after taking the pills.

"As long as nothing's wrong."

Seeing that Su Yan was so sleepy that he curled up in her arms and fell asleep, without any psychological trauma caused by the heavenly tribulation, the aunt felt relieved.

Tribulation is not only a test of a cultivator's cultivation and daily physical strength, but also a test of their mind.

There are countless self-proclaimed geniuses in the world, but when faced with the heavenly tribulation manifested by the laws of heaven and earth, more than one person has developed a fear of thunder after completing the tribulation. They become hysterical when they are exposed to thunder or see lightning.

When Auntie saw Mu Kai, she thought Su Yan had become withdrawn.

Wooden armor is no ordinary item; it is a special divine power imprinted in the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. It is extremely difficult to trigger wooden armor. However, Su Yan triggered wooden armor because of the emerald divine light.

"Did you fall asleep so quickly?"

Princess Wuxi and Grand Tutor Jin also came to the front of Ruojian Lake to look at Su Yan, who was already fast asleep. Princess Wuxi said with a helpless expression, "Now that the main character of the banquet is sleeping like a dead pig, is there any point in holding the banquet?"

"Let's wait until the little fox wakes up!" Auntie smiled helplessly and placed the little fox in her arms into the increasingly plump Jiao Nanwu's arms, where it should be more comfortable to sleep.

………………

As Su Yan fell into a deep sleep, her body gradually sank into a dream space.

"It's numb and hard."

Su Yan opened her eyes in the dream space. Her memories of the outside world were somewhat hazy. The first thing she saw was a fairy sister in the form of a young girl, lying stiffly on the ground with her buttocks sticking out. Electric arcs gradually jumped out from her body.

Clearly, Su Yan, who was undergoing tribulation in the outside world, blindly chose to tough it out, causing the power of the heavenly lightning to affect Sister Xi'er in her subconscious space.
