Chapter 118 Beast Tide 20
Amidst the worried, admiring, and expectant gazes of the crowd, Venerable Qingxu remained completely unfazed by the ever-growing tribulation lightning, standing firm against its earth-shattering power.
Sanjiu,
49,
59,
As everyone silently counted, Lord Qingxu passed through the preceding tribulation.
Under the overwhelming tribulation of lightning, Lord Qingxu appeared so small, yet so powerful. Despite all the tribulations that struck him, he remained steadfast in his will and in his form.
All he had was a cultivator's thirst for power and the Great Dao.
Although he had no sword in his hand, his body was like a sword, fighting and competing with the heavenly tribulation without the slightest fear.
Many people were enlightened by watching him bravely resist the heavenly tribulation.
What is the purpose of cultivating immortality? Isn't it to pursue greater strength and go further on the path of cultivation?
All of the above are merely nutrients; the most beautiful flowers will bloom under the nourishment of this blood and sweat.
Heaven rewards diligence. Whether one's cultivation level is high or low, on the path of seeking the Dao, we are all seekers of the Great Dao.
Her thoughts raced, and Cheng Jiu's eyes slowly lost focus. Thoughts flashed through her mind, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged violently with her thoughts.
Xuanze didn't delay and teleported her into a deserted hill nearby, clearly indicating that she was entering a state of enlightenment.
We can't let anyone disturb us. As for getting enlightenment from it, forget it. It, Xuanze, is a dragon, not some kind of enlightenment ground. If it moves and affects Cheng Jiu, it will be committing a grave sin.
The others were also engrossed in Qingxu Venerable's tribulation and did not notice their companions. Xuanze grinned. These little guys on its body were really talented. Judging from the spiritual energy surrounding them, they would soon enter a state of enlightenment.
It was both troubled and relieved, and focused some of its attention on these six people, so that it could spread the word about them as soon as it had an epiphany.
Cheng Jiu seemed to be walking on a golden road. This road was originally empty, but as she walked, it began to fill with a shimmering green. She only took 99 steps, and with each step she took, the green became deeper.
The road beneath her feet would feel even fuller when filled with greenery, but after ninety-nine steps, she found it difficult to take another one.
Looking at the endless road ahead, she seemed to understand: "It seems I can only stop here!"
Even so, she did not leave the Great Dao and was clearly still in a state of enlightenment. Looking back at the path she had traveled, it seemed so narrow and so short, while she gazed at the Great Dao that stretched endlessly into the distance.
Suddenly, I realized that I hadn't gone very far on the path of cultivation.
Was he really going to stop here? Cheng Jiu was unwilling. The green beneath his feet surged continuously as he examined his cultivation journey.
What path should I take?
Suddenly, a moment of clarity dawned on her: life is life! Whether alive or dead! She walked the path of life, capable of saving or taking! Free to do as she pleased! In the end, she did not define her own life!
Cheng Jiu admits that he is not the kind of person who would define and stick to his own life!
The green light was vibrant and full of life. As the light connected, it was like a seed sprouting and eventually growing into a towering tree. Propelled by the green light, Cheng Jiu took a step forward.
This one step seemed to change the world, and the next ninety-nine steps collapsed with a bang. Cheng Jiu seemed to have returned to the starting point in that instant, but this time she could not take another step forward.
Cheng Jiu, however, knew that he had entered a new world.
The seed of life seeps into the body, and the Law of Wood, like fertile soil, nurtures this seed.
Outside, vegetation flourished, and as wave after wave of green light swept across, ordinary spiritual herbs transformed into spiritual medicines within the green light.
The medicinal herbs of the nearby mountains resonated strongly with the green light.
Meanwhile, thunderclouds slowly began to form above.
It appeared rather small and inconspicuous compared to the two towering thunderclouds in front of it.
Despite its small size, it is incredibly powerful.
Cheng Jiu's consciousness remained immersed in that Great Dao, where he was still comprehending enlightenment.
But the lightning tribulation didn't wait for her to awaken to the truth; it struck down without any mercy!
Xuanze, who had been paying close attention to Cheng Jiu's movements, couldn't help but gasp upon seeing this.
She only had a little bit of protection there, so how did it suddenly break through?
In fact, there had been signs long ago. Cheng Jiu was already at the critical point of breaking through, but she didn't want to break through and kept suppressing it. Now, she suddenly realized that her body's suppression of her cultivation had also relaxed, and the water that was overflowing instantly spilled out, and the breakthrough came naturally.
Her spiritual immortal body circulated continuously, incorporating the first nine lightning tribulations into her body and constantly tempering it.
Nine lightning tribulations struck the center, and as two green seeds rose from Cheng Jiu's body, the seeds became increasingly crystalline under the tempering of these nine lightning tribulations, their green color resembling two pieces of jade.
These two seeds are not physical objects, but as soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of all cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above.
"A seed of the Dao!" an elder exclaimed.
"And there are two Dao Seeds."
These words were like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan, and an uncontrollable, greedy gaze fell upon Cheng Jiu.
“I remember she seemed to be…” an elder couldn’t suppress his evil thoughts.
This is a seed of the Dao, a seed that leads to ascension and the Great Dao.
"I think you've gone completely mad! She's Qingxu's disciple!" The person next to him nudged his friend, who was almost delirious.
No one can have a smooth journey on the path of cultivation. It's hard not to be tempted by the convenient and harmless access to Dao Seeds, which are often stuck in a bottleneck and have no hope of ever reaching the Great Dao.
Before cultivating immortality, a person is just a person. As a person, one must resist the erosion of time in the endless years. Especially for someone who is always in a bottleneck period, life was smooth sailing before, but after reaching this level of cultivation, they are stuck here because of their talent, strength, or comprehension.
The constant pursuit of the Dao, coupled with repeated failures, has led to an obsession with breakthroughs amidst hopeless waiting and struggle.
The seed of the Dao becomes a shortcut to this obsession, making it hard not to arouse greed in people.
The words "disciple of Qingxu" were like a bucket of cold water poured over the heads of those who harbored greed.
If anyone dares to lay a hand on Qingxu's disciples, even if they have broken through, they may have the desire to do so, but they won't have the life to use it.
Even if he ascends to immortality, Qingxu would absolutely dare to attack an ascended immortal.
Moreover, their lineage is extremely protective of its own; not only them, but even their families will be wiped out, with three generations of their descendants being exterminated.
Without a doubt, it's absolutely possible. This lineage's protectiveness of its own is unparalleled. More importantly, ascension is a certainty for this lineage, and every generation produces incredibly powerful freaks.
More importantly, the Guiyuan Sect will not allow it! They will not allow fellow disciples of the Guiyuan Sect to kill each other!
If they dare to make a move, they will probably be expelled from the Guiyuan Sect and hunted down by the Guiyuan Sect in the next second.
Once the elders had calmed down, they suddenly felt a chill run down their spines. When they turned around, they met the sect leader's menacing and warning gaze.
They were instantly brought back to reality from the sea of desire, and without prior arrangement, they all began to meditate, trying their best to suppress their evil thoughts.
It's because their desire for enlightenment is not firm; they only want to take shortcuts.
This minor misunderstanding was resolved so easily.
Meanwhile, Cheng Jiu also entered the final crucial stage: Nascent Soul Formation and the Tribulation of Inner Demons.
Cheng Jiu's journey was incredibly smooth. Emerging from the main road, he found himself in a sea of purple flowers. The flowers exuded a righteous yet eerie aura, creating a completely different feeling that endowed this sea of flowers with unparalleled charm.
In the very center of the sea of flowers, the most eye-catching thing is two green seeds, like the sun and the moon. The lighter green seed revolves around the darker, more vibrant seed in the middle. When she comes out, the seed bumps into her forehead.
Cheng Jiu felt a splitting headache as the sea of flowers beneath her feet continued to grow until it completely engulfed her.
The moment he completely engulfed her, Cheng Jiu felt as if he had entered a warm hot spring.
It's like returning to the original state of being human.
Cheng Jiu was somewhat reluctant to leave this state. In the midst of endless comfort, a transparent, small, and adorable nascent soul, whose appearance was exactly the same as Cheng Jiu's, was undergoing the tempering of the final nine lightning tribulations.
The nascent soul appeared as a shimmering green, holding a small short sword in its hand. With each heavenly tribulation that descended, the nascent soul became even more lifelike.
It's like a small, colorful terracotta figurine being slowly painted over, first with two incredibly complex contracts, then with green branches clinging to the little figure's clothes.
The small sword in my hand slowly developed its own luster, as if it had come to life.
The green flames slowly seeped into the little man's body.
The two seeds, like the sun and the moon, kept circling around the little man.
Like two small ornaments.
As the last heavenly tribulation descended, the little figure sat cross-legged in Cheng Jiu's dantian.
Cheng Jiu's strength continued to surge, from the early stage of Nascent Soul to the middle stage, and finally stopped at the late stage of Nascent Soul.
This clearly shows how abundant the spiritual energy Cheng Jiu had suppressed before was.
The Spiritual Body continuously circulated, stabilizing her strength, which had become somewhat unstable due to the surge in her cultivation.
As if by magic, the seven-year-old girl suddenly transformed into a beautiful young woman. Her eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, and her long black hair was loosely draped down, as clear as autumn water. Her skin was as fair as a gentle breeze, as radiant as spring blossoms, and as bright as the autumn moon.
What an absolutely stunning beauty.
Cheng Jiu snapped out of her daze and stretched, her joints creaking like popping beans. She was filled with power and wanted to fight the monster for three hundred rounds!
This was a side effect of his sudden increase in strength, and Cheng Jiu couldn't help but practice a few sets of punches.
The punches were fierce and powerful, and the sound of cracking could be faintly heard in the air.
Although everyone's attention was focused on Lord Qingxu undergoing his tribulation.
But Cheng Jiu's comprehension of the Dao Seed was truly astonishing.
The young disciple couldn't see the Dao Seed, nor did he know what it was, but the elders around him were unusually excited and attentive, and they couldn't help but give Cheng Jiu a few points of attention.
Seeing that Cheng Jiu had successfully overcome his tribulation, he unleashed another powerful and vigorous set of punches.
The disciples who had been amazed by Cheng Jiu's appearance couldn't help but shrink back.
This junior sister is beautiful, but she's too tough!
After breaking through to the next level, who else is so eager to pick a fight like my junior sister?! Can't you be a little more worthy of your looks?
The elder who had been paying close attention to Cheng Jiu couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of Qingxu's disciple! Such formidable strength inherited from the same lineage!"
Cheng Jiu also noticed something was wrong. Why? Because the field of vision had been raised.
It was as if her previously short and stocky figure had suddenly been elevated, causing her some discomfort and dizziness due to her fear of heights.
This is normal. After all, suddenly going from a child to a young girl, the increase in body size and the change in vision make it difficult for people to adapt to life.
After a while, she recovered and sat down cross-legged to examine her body.
She only walked that road once, how come it's like she's experienced a complete transformation, how come the changes are so great?
Then she and the adorable little nascent soul inside her stared at each other.
A piercing scream erupted from within!
Ugh!
Although she had long suspected that she might have made a breakthrough, she still found it hard to accept when it actually happened, as it was a whole year ahead of her original plan!
She quickly composed herself; there was nothing she could do now that things had come to this.
Back in reality, the clothes she was wearing were no longer wearable, even though the spiritual garments crafted by Venerable Qingxu were of quite good quality!
However, after being baptized by the lightning tribulation, the spiritual garment was also damaged to a considerable extent, retaining only the most basic functions, so that Cheng Jiu would not be left naked after breaking through.
Cheng Jiu looked into the distance. During this period of her breakthrough, Venerable Qingxu had already passed the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.
The Seven-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was still brewing, so she could take this time to change her clothes and also check her current height and appearance in the mirror.
He shouldn't be too short.
With a heavy heart, Cheng Jiu took out a small spirit house from his ring, crawled inside, and activated the formation.
Cheng Jiu has always had this spirit house, but he has never had the opportunity to take it out.
The small spirit house was fully equipped, all prepared by Venerable Qingxu for this disciple.
After all, the environment varies during training, and there are always times when the environment is harsh and there is no place to rest properly.
Then this spirit house would be a very good refuge.
However, some of the furniture inside is too small for Cheng Jiu now.
We need to find time to replace these pieces of furniture later.
Cheng Jiu took a bath and changed into a new spiritual robe. Fortunately, spiritual robes in the cultivation world can be adapted to different body shapes.
However, the previous one was made by Qingxu Venerable for Xiao Cheng Jiu, and its style was more cute and childish.
However, Cheng Jiu's breakthrough was too sudden, and she hadn't prepared any spiritual clothing for herself as she grew up; she was wearing the ones that Venerable Qingxu had refined for her.
Standing in front of the dressing table, Cheng Jiu looked herself up and down in the mirror. She had to admit that Luo Xingze and Chen Tingyi had given her a good appearance.
Luo Xingze was able to bewitch Chen Tingyi so completely, not only because Chen Tingyi was love-struck and he was eloquent, but also because of his good looks.
Cheng Jiu was certain because for a period of time Chen Tingyi was very good to her, acting exactly like a mother should.
Although Cheng Jiu felt like she had seen a ghost, she had no memories of her past life and still longed for her mother's love.
They thoroughly enjoyed a period of maternal love and filial piety.
Looking back now, Cheng Jiu realized that Luo Xingze had inexplicably gained weight during that period!
Yes, she's gained weight. Although Chen Tingyi still appears to be love-struck, it's obvious that she's just putting on an act. She even avoids his contact and seems indifferent to him.
As for Chen Tingyi, it has been said that she is a stunning beauty, although she is a bit too love-struck.
Cheng Jiu only sighed, but he was very satisfied with his appearance. He even felt a little bit of goodwill towards his scumbag father and his love-struck mother.
At least they gave birth to her very well, better looking than in her previous life. I never expected that these two people didn't change their appearance.
This is from a blind box.
Besides her looks, she was also very satisfied with her height, having inherited the tall genes of those two guys. Although she was only seventeen years old, she was already 1.7 meters tall.
Cheng Jiu took a good look around before coming out of the house.
There was no one left on Xuanze's back.
My friends have all had an epiphany.
