Ten years for a sword!
In order to master the Sword of the True Spirit from Jiao Daoren before he reached the mid Dharma stage, Lu Ping had delayed his training by a full ten years. In addition to the years of preparation he had made, Lu Ping had put in more than ten years of effort.
Ten years ago, the top practitioners of the major clans and sects in the central plains had all begun to undergo their first Thunder Trial and reach the mid Dharma stage. Ten years had passed, and Lu Ping had fallen far behind.
Lu Ping's eyes suddenly opened, and his Divine Will swept across Kongming Island. Originally, his Divine Will could only cover a radius of thirty miles, which was barely comparable to a great practitioner's, but after ten years of torturous training with the Divine Will Carving technique to create the Sword of the True Spirit, it had become Lu Ping's greatest gain.
Now, Lu Ping's Divine Will was even more resilient, and his level of practice was even more profound. Everything within a radius of forty miles was presented to Lu Ping's Divine Will.
But now was not the time to summon the Thunder Trial!
The Sword of the True Spirit had become a true Peak Spirit Cultivation treasure, and the body of the sword had been formed by Jiao Daoren using the Way of Formations. Whether it was in terms of the material of the treasure or its final quality, it was already qualified to undergo its first Thunder Trial.
But Lu Ping was a cautious person. He would rather delay the time to increase his level of practice than take such a huge risk. Moreover, summoning the Thunder Trial with the Sword of the True Spirit was a perilous situation. He would rather use his inner Yuan to continuously nourish the Sword of the True Spirit than to let any accidents happen to it.
Fortunately, Lu Ping still had something important to do, so he did not waste the time to nourish the Sword of the True Spirit.
Lu Ping took out a spirit sealing box from the storage artifact and slowly opened it. Inside was a group of original essence that had begun to dissipate. One could vaguely see the appearance of an eagle. It was the manifestation of the Lone Eagle Ying Li that was killed by Lu Ping and had his consciousness erased.
Nine True Spirit Transformations, only with the nine transformations could one become a True Spirit!
In the Blood Condensation Realm, fusing three bloodlines into one was the third transformation. In the Core Forging Realm, fusing three Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures was the third transformation. In the Aspect Realm, one had to go through three life and death lightning tribulations and refine pure Yang Qi.
This was the only way for cultivators in the world of cultivation to progress from Low-Level Minor Repairs all the way to Pure Yang Laozu, and even break through the final layer to become a True Spirit.
However, there was something unusual about this path for Lu Ping. Along the way, while Lu Ping was facing the nine transformations, he had also brought along the changes in his bloodline.
In the Blood Condensation Realm, Lu Ping had fused the Green Sea Snake bloodline, the Primordial Giant Crocodile bloodline, and the Koi bloodline. In the Core Forging Realm, he had fused the Deer Demon bloodline that Laozu had obtained when he was roaming the Middle Earth, the Heavenly Horse bloodline that he had obtained from the mysterious bloodstone in the Vault of Thousand Poisons.
And now, when Lu Ping was facing his first lightning tribulation, he had killed the Lone Eagle Ying Li in the Five Elements Hidden Tortoise. When he obtained the Lone Eagle's manifestation, Lu Ping had already felt that his bloodline seemed to be expressing a strong desire to devour again.
Combined with Lu Ping's previous experience in cultivation, before summoning the first lightning tribulation, Lu Ping seemed to want to refine this manifestation that contained the essence of the bloodline. Then, he would use it to refine his bloodline again.
Snake's body, crocodile's legs, deer's antlers, carp's tail, cow's ears, and horse's mane. These were the six forms that Lu Ping's Dragon manifestation had. The next step should be eagle's claws!
Lu Ping thought to himself. True Yuan had already begun to surge in his bloodline, taking away the trace of bloodline essence that was floating above his palm.
The seventh time to refine his bloodline!
The Dharma Draconic Avatar in the heart space seemed to have sensed something as well. It circled around, roared, and released strands of bloodline essence that flowed into Lu Ping's body through his bloodline. Eventually, it seeped into the heart space and was absorbed by the Dharma Draconic Avatar.
Rumble!
No one knew when it started, but the sky above Kongming Island's protective formation had darkened. Dark clouds gathered from all directions, covering the entire sky. The formation masters of various sects who were cultivating in the Kongming Legacy Formation were quickly alerted by the dark clouds, but they still did not know where the dark clouds had come from.
Muffled thunder rumbled in the dark clouds, but there was not a single flash of lightning. It was as if there were ferocious beasts hiding in the clouds, constantly accumulating power and preparing to deal a fatal blow to their opponents at any time.
The formation masters who could not figure out the cause of the phenomenon could only treat it as a coincidence. Although many of the formation masters still had their doubts, no one dared to go into the dark clouds to investigate, nor did they have the ability to break the protective formation of Kongming Island.
An entire year had passed. The dark clouds above Kongming Island had grown thicker and thicker, and the muffled thunder had grown louder and louder. However, every time it rang out, it felt as if someone's heart was being hammered fiercely.
By now, everyone knew that something extraordinary had happened on Kongming Island. Although no one knew what was going on, many cultivators from various sects had already left the Kongming Legacy Formation to report the news back to their sects through various channels. Then, they returned to the Kongming Legacy Formation again.
As Lu Ping refined Ying Li's manifestation, the Dragon manifestation that was originally only four and a half feet long grew once again. Its body stretched all the way to nine and a half feet long, and the dark clouds that had gathered on the island grew lower and lower. It looked like a giant drop of ink hanging in the air, ready to fall at any time.
Lu Ping raised his head, and two rays of green light shot out from his eyes. It was as if he could see through the formation above him. Even the gathering thunderclouds in the sky could not hide from Lu Ping's "True Eyes of the Three Pure Ones"!
The commotion this time was a little too big!
Lu Ping laughed to himself. It seemed that he still had to find a way to escape after he was done. Most of the formation masters who were studying the Kongming Legacy Formation were not paying attention to the dark clouds above Kongming Island.
Today, the dark clouds that had gathered above Kongming Island finally moved. The muffled thunder that sounded like the roars of beasts no longer exploded occasionally. Instead, it became louder and louder, and the dark clouds in the sky began to churn violently, as if thousands of beasts were galloping.
Rays of light began to flash through the dark clouds. The formation masters in the Kongming Legacy Formation had all given up on what they were doing and raised their heads to look at the dark clouds that covered the sky.
Over the past year, although the dark clouds had become thicker and thicker, and the muffled thunder had become louder and more frequent, the dark clouds had not produced any lightning. This time, a golden light finally appeared among the dark clouds, illuminating the entire sky.
Everyone already had an answer in their hearts the moment the dark clouds gathered. However, because there had not been a single lightning strike among the dark clouds, no one had the confidence to say the answer aloud. At this moment, everyone finally understood that the dark clouds that covered the sky were indeed the Tribulation Clouds!
But whose Tribulation Clouds were these? What kind of Tribulation Clouds were they?
Could it be someone who was facing the second Tribulation Clouds and was attempting to advance to the late Dharma stage to become a Great Adept?
Looking at the scene before them that covered the sky, it was more or less the case. But why had the Tribulation Clouds been nurtured in the sky for an entire year?
On Kongming Island, Deng Ming and the few demon cultivators under Lu Ping all stared at the Tribulation Clouds in the sky. After a long time, Deng Ming finally cursed, "What the hell, Brother Lu is an early Dharma adept, why does this Tribulation Cloud look like it's the second Tribulation Cloud?"
Samling and the others were also shocked by the power of the heavens and the earth, but they had endless confidence in Lu Ping. Lu Ling 'er was the first to protest and loudly said, "Father will definitely be fine!"
Deng Ming shook his head and did not argue with these children. He just looked up at the sky, a look of worry flashing across his eyes.
Everyone was confused and could only look through the formation above their heads to the center of the Tribulation Clouds in the sky. That was where the Tribulation Clouds were the densest. It was so dense that it looked like a large drop of ink was about to fall to the ground. At this moment, that large drop of ink had already turned into a large, shining ball of lightning. It was as if the slightest touch would immediately cause this ball of lightning to turn into a bag of Tribulation Lightning Water, drenching a person's spiritual soul!
At this time, although Lu Ping had long been prepared for this, he could not help but be shaken at this moment. He had seen Celestial Phenomenon Laozu summon the second Tribulation Cloud, but he did not expect that he had not yet revealed the Sword of the True Spirit. As he continued to refine it, not only did the sword's aura leak out, but even Lu Ping's own aura was exposed. The method that he had originally used to seal his own cultivation was like paper in front of this Sword of the True Spirit.
Lu Ping smiled helplessly. This time, things had gotten out of hand and attracted the attention of many people. After this Tribulation of Life and Death, it would be a big problem for him to escape safely.
Lu Ping shook his hand and grabbed at the void. Forty miles away, a Space Tunnel suddenly formed, and a giant hand made of Yuan Qi reached out from the tunnel, grabbing at Lu Bi.
When Deng Ming saw that the Samling were all shocked and was about to resist, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "Don't resist, this is your father looking for someone!"
Sure enough, the three spirits stopped, and Lu Bi allowed the giant hand to guide her into the spatial tunnel, disappearing without a trace.
"Father!"
Lu Bi exited the Space Tunnel and saw Lu Ping looking at her with a smile on his face. Her heart was instantly filled with joy, and she could not help but open her mouth to call out.
Lu Ping laughed, pointed to the sky, and said, "Are you afraid?"
"No! With father here, Bi 'er is afraid of nothing! "
Lu Ping laughed heartily, and suddenly, he exuded a heroic aura as he said, "Although I'm quite confident in this lightning tribulation, I still have to abide by the rules of the cultivation world that have existed for tens of thousands of years. So, you can keep these items for me for now and return them to me when the lightning tribulation is over!"
The Space Tunnel appeared again, and Lu Bi had already returned to the side of Deng Ming and the others. No one asked, but they already knew why Lu Ping had taken Lu Bi. Only Lu Bi clutched the House of Gold and a Storage Ring tightly in her hands, but her face was calm, as if she had grown up a lot at this moment.
Boom!
A white light pierced through the sky, and the entire world fell silent at this moment.
