Ling Yun was still thinking about the Heaven's Tribulation.
That was because he would have to face the Four Nine Minor Tribulation once he broke through to the middle stage of Qi Cultivation!
Ling Yun's Treasure Body was now complete and his Stellar Condensation Technique was unscathed. He wasn't afraid of the Four Nine Minor Tribulation, but he was worried if it would descend directly.
If the Heaven's Tribulation descended directly after breaking through to Qi Cultivation Stage Four, the impact would be too great. Qingshui Lake was a famous scenic area after all. There were too many tourists every day, and the areas around Qingshui Lake were the most prosperous in Qingshui City, such as the Qingxi Villa District.
That was what Ling Yun was worried about.
If it was anyone else undergoing their Heavenly Tribulation here, they definitely wouldn't have to worry about this. After all, this was the belly of Dragon Mountain, which was a few hundred meters above the ground. If one were to include the distance to the peak of Dragon Mountain, it would be at least a thousand meters. After a person broke through, as long as they didn't go out, the Heavenly Tribulation definitely wouldn't descend.
However, Ling Yun knew that he was different from others. His Heaven's Tribulation had never been predictable.
He couldn't predict which realm it would descend, and neither could he predict how powerful it would be!
That was what troubled Ling Yun the most.
For example, when he broke through to Physique Tempering Stage Seven on Turtle Island, there was a wave of tribulation clouds, and it was the most terrifying Nine-Colored Tribulation Cloud!
Another example was when he broke through to Qi Cultivation Stage at Mansion Number One. He was bombarded by the Heaven's Tribulation, and that was how the Celestial Illumination of Qingshui happened!
Ling Yun didn't want such an unpredictable situation to happen a third time.
At the thought of this, Ling Yun couldn't help but raise his head and look at the cave above him. His eyes were like lightning, emitting a divine glow. His gaze seemed to penetrate the entire Dragon Mountain and see the sky outside the peak.
A confident and domineering smile appeared at the corner of Ling Yun's mouth as he muttered to himself, "Why don't I take a gamble with God?"
After saying that, Ling Yun blinked his eyes and suddenly floated up.
At this time, Ling Yun finally had the time to carefully examine the Yang Array Eye. He turned his head left and right, looking at the small stone temple in the cave. His eyes flashed.
The Buddhist staff, the alms bowl, and even the praying mat carved on the stone were still there.
However, the Vajra Glazed Body that had once sat upright on the stone praying mat and formed a hand seal was gone!
Ling Yun had already noticed this when he rushed into the eye of the Yang Formation. However, he had just swallowed eighteen Yin spirits and was in a hurry to refine them. Hence, he didn't have time to pay attention to them. Anyway, they were already gone.
Of course, it was also because of the absence of the Diamond Glazed Body that the surging Buddhist energy in the eye of the Yang Array had almost completely disappeared. All that was left was pure and dense Pure Yang Qi. That was why Ling Yun had been able to absorb it without restraint and cultivate crazily for a day and a night.
At the same time, Ling Yun also understood why the Yin Spirits could appear in the eye of the Yin Array. It was naturally related to the disappearance of the Diamond Glazed Body. Without the suppression of the surging Buddhist power, the Yin Spirits could be born again in the icy pond.
"Xing Chen, come here."
Ling Yun stared at the empty stone praying mat for a long while. He opened his mouth and called out to Ye Xingchen, who had been silently standing guard in the cave passage all this while, to come over.
The pure Yang energy in the eye of the Yang Formation had decreased significantly after a day and night of frenzied absorption. The temperature had dropped by at least two hundred degrees, which Ye Xingchen could take.
"Whoosh!"
Ye Xingchen flew over. She only needed one look at Ling Yun to know that he had completely recovered to his peak. Moreover, his cultivation had improved. She immediately asked excitedly, "Ling Yun, you …"
"I can break through to Qi Cultivation Stage Four at any time," Ling Yun said directly.
Then, he raised his hand and pointed at the stone praying mat. "Look, the Diamond Glazed Body of that almighty Buddhist cultivator was sitting on this praying mat. But now, it's actually gone."
Ye Xingchen was stunned. "Someone took it?"
"Impossible!"
Ling Yun shook his head decisively. He then pointed at the monk staff and alms bowl in the temple. His eyes were solemn as he said to Ye Xingchen, "I remember very clearly that the monk staff and alms bowl are in their original positions. They haven't even been moved. Therefore, there's no way that the Diamond Glazed Body could have been taken away."
Ye Xingchen was shocked. "That means it disappeared into thin air?!"
"That should be the case."
Ling Yun nodded, his expression stern. "When a Buddhist almighty cultivator cultivates to the Vajra Glazed Body realm, even if he passes away in meditation, his corpse still possesses unfathomable power. It's not difficult for him to disappear into thin air."
Ye Xingchen asked, "Then what do you plan to do now?"
Ling Yun smiled confidently. "I'll collect these Buddhist treasures first and then break through."
As he said that, Ling Yun used Fulgurating Shadows and divided himself into three. In the blink of an eye, he stored the monk staff, alms bowl, and the stone praying mat into his Taixu Ring. Then, he summoned the Green Shadow Flying Sword and used his divine will to cut off the entire temple from the rocky ground.
Ling Yun swept through the Yang Formation Eye in an instant.
"Xingchen, wait for me here. I'll go inform the two Blood Clan members of something and return immediately."
With that, Ling Yun immediately used Sword Kinesis Flight to return the way he came. Soon, he arrived at the underground river.
"Boss!"
Edward and Chester had been guarding here obediently. Seeing Ling Yun come out, they immediately came to greet him.
"Both of you, go out now and tell Tie Xiaohu and the rest about the situation here. Then, tell them that I'm going to break through in the crater and will meet up with them in a day or two at most. Tell them not to worry."
Ling Yun and Ye Xingchen went down to the crater yesterday with the sole purpose of collecting the True Dragon Out at Sea. Now that a day and a night had passed, Ling Yun didn't know how anxious the people above were. That was why Ling Yun asked the two Blood Clan members to report that he was safe.
After all, Qing Niao, Qin Dongxue, and Zhuang Meifeng had already arrived at Qingshui City. Ling Yun had been in the crater for a day and a night, so they must be worried sick.
"Yes, Boss," Chester replied immediately.
"Also, after you go out, tell them that I'm going to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation after breaking through. I'm not sure of the exact location, but no matter what, if anything abnormal happens in Qingshui City, tell them to be prepared and control the situation."
"Both of you go out now and pass my message to them as soon as possible."
After Ling Yun made the necessary arrangements and watched the two Blood Clan members leave, he took out the Water Repellent Pearl and stared at the huge waterfall below the cave. After a moment of contemplation, he flew down directly into the huge lake below.
After entering the lake, Ling Yun went straight to the bottom and started drifting along the torrent of the underground river. At the same time, he silently observed the direction of the water flow.
A few minutes later, Ling Yun traveled seven to eight kilometers. Even though there were twists and turns in the direction of the water flow, he realized that it was heading east without much change.
"Seems like I was right. This underground river really leads to the bottom of the East Sea."
Ling Yun smiled. He didn't continue forward but returned to the cave behind the glacier. Then, he flew all the way to the eye of the Yang Formation.
"What took you so long?"
Ling Yun's return trip took more than an hour. Ye Xingchen couldn't help but blame him anxiously.
Ling Yun naturally told her the truth. Finally, he said, "I'm about to break through. After that, the Four Nine Minor Tribulation may come at any time. If it comes directly, then we can only face it. But if it doesn't, we can't leave through the crater. Instead, we have to leave through this underground river."
Ye Xingchen's beautiful eyes flickered. "You mean to break through here and undergo the tribulation in the East Sea?"
"Smart!"
Ling Yun nodded with a smile.
"Alright then. Go ahead and break through. I'll protect you."
Ye Xingchen knew that Ling Yun's breakthrough was imminent. She was very excited and immediately expressed her attitude.
"Mm."
"Xing Chen, go to the center of the passageway and stand guard for me where the yin and yang energies converge. You don't have to worry about any anomalies as long as there aren't any intruders while I'm breaking through," Ling Yun said sternly.
"If lightning really strikes after I break through, you don't have to worry about me. Just go to the entrance of the cave and stay out of the range of my tribulation."
Ye Xingchen listened very seriously. She memorized it and nodded repeatedly. Then, she left the eye of the Yang Formation and returned to the middle of the tunnel that connected Dragon Mountain and Nancui Peak.
Ling Yun immediately found a spot beside the eye of the Yang Formation and sat down cross-legged. He prepared to cultivate the Yin-Yang harmony balance and break through.
At this moment, he still had six Yin spirits in his body that hadn't been refined. Therefore, he didn't lack pure Yin Qi. He only needed to absorb pure Yang Qi continuously in the eye of the Yang Formation.
After everything was ready, Ling Yun silently circulated the Yin-Yang harmony balance. He opened all the pores on his body and began to absorb the pure Yang Qi in the eye of the Yang Formation. At the same time, he accelerated the refinement of the Yin spirits in his energy center to maintain the balance of Yin and Yang in his energy center and meridians!
Ling Yun's magical energy center, which was about the size of a soccer ball, began to spin rapidly. Yin-Yang True Qi spewed out of the eyes of the Yin-Yang fish at an unprecedented speed. It merged with the pure Yang Qi he absorbed and refined. It flowed rapidly through his eight extraordinary meridians and finally attacked the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows!
Under such circumstances, the Divine Energy in Ling Yun's sea of consciousness accelerated. The speed was too fast!
Nine drops of Divine Energy in a minute!
To be able to maintain the condensation of nine drops of Divine Energy in a minute was the first requirement to break through to Qi Cultivation Stage Four!
"Boom!"
After feeling that it was about time, Ling Yun began to burn his Divine Energy to the limit. This time, he burned three hundred and sixty drops at once!
With the help of the burning of his Divine Energy, the condensation speed in the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows doubled again. Ling Yun didn't hesitate to break through!
"Boom!"
Qi Cultivation Stage Four was like a window paper to Ling Yun. He broke through it in an instant!
The next moment, the sea of consciousness between Ling Yun's eyebrows suddenly expanded to nine times its original size. The sixty thousand drops of Divine Origin Liquid were no longer a full lake in the sea of consciousness between Ling Yun's eyebrows. Instead, they became shallow puddles!
At the same time, the strength of the sea of consciousness between Ling Yun's eyebrows, the range of his divine sense, the degree of condensation of his divine sense, and the speed at which the Yin-Yang True Qi condensed Divine Energy all increased!
"Boom!"
After entering Qi Cultivation Stage Four, Ling Yun wasn't satisfied. He burned his Divine Energy to the limit again. This time, he burned one thousand and eighty drops at once!
After breaking through to Qi Cultivation Stage Four, the size and strength of the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows could completely withstand this level of burning!
This time, Ling Yun burned his Divine Energy to the limit in order to speed up the refinement of the Yin Spirit. At the same time, it was also to speed up the absorption of the Yang Qi in the eye of the Yang Spell Formation!
With the Yin Spirit in his body, breaking through in the eye of the Yang Spell Formation was facing the eye of the Yin Spell Formation. Ling Yun naturally wasn't satisfied with such a good opportunity!
This was because Ling Yun was too familiar with the middle stage of Qi Cultivation. To him, there wasn't much difference between Qi Cultivation Stage Four, Qi Cultivation Stage Five, and Qi Cultivation Stage Six!
This time, as long as there was enough Yin Yang Qi in the eye of the Yang Spell Formation and the eye of the Yin Spell Formation, he could rush to wherever he wanted until he absorbed all the Yin Yang Qi in the eye of the Yang Spell Formation!
